Grow up buddy
Hell yeah, it's a snorter from top to bottom, killer album! Drug city is on serious repeat
He is truly a amazing artist and I couldn’t agree with you more about pushing things forward
this track hit home for me
It's Dana not Dani.
Thanks, every days a school day. :)
Absolutely agree. Berman and indeed Malkmus are two of the eminent songwriters of your generation
They certainly are. Out of interest, whose the eminent songwriters of your generation? Thanks for the Comment. :)
Absolute* Elsewhere
Orun is highlife not South African strings and its an Afrobeats album not an rb album
You can only know what you know. Whatever you call it I hope we can agree it was great. Thanks for the comment.
Great review
Thank you! Much appreciated. :)
It’s definitely more than a 5
Original I gave a 9...remix albums always = cash in to me but it is what is it is to each of us. :) Thanks for the comment.
I wholeheartedly agree ian is an ok rapper and this album was kind of meh
I’d give it an 8 I love this album
I love lil uzi vert but this is his worst album to date unfortunately I would give it a 3
I’m from Houston and I love maxo kreams work and what’s he’s done for the city glad you love it too
On listen 4 and loving it...proper talent. :) Go Astros!
I love this record but I understand where you’re coming from
I’ve just discovered ur channel and I love what you’re doing :) just subscribed
Superstar! Thanks Melon for the comments and welcome aboard. :)
Hearing an older man talk about the younger generation of music in a somewhat a positive light is very refreshing, great vid ❤
Cool, I didn't know!
Happy to be of service. :) Hope it was worth a subscribe. :)
lmao never thought an older white man would be into prettifun. that's so cool tho man. subbed! i agree, the uzi album def not as good as this. you describe the music very well. uzi is one of my fav artists in this style of music though. prettifun is influenced by him. i'd recommend his albums lil uzi vs. the world and luv is rage 2
That's hugly kind of you. Thank you. I always argue there is no better music than todays. Will give those a listen and appreciate the comment.
Unc got better ears than most young people nowadays
I'll take that as the half compliment and half insult it is. :) Appreciated and thanks for watching an old bloke ramble on.
Ethel cain is literally the best artist to ever exist!!!
I'm feeling the love! Feel like I'm missing something so gonna get to 'Preachers Daughter' in the near future so look out for the review.
For me, it sounded like a collection of half baked songs that where then passed on to a room of session musicians to flesh out, so Chris could get back to his crack pipe quicker. I was bummed when I found out "Think about Heaven" was a cover...
A little harsh but fair. :) Didnt do much for me and not given it much of a thought since. Thanks for the comment!
8.5 for me I always expect high-concept albums from Kendrick Lamar, but it's still an amazing album. Kendrick is probably mad because of the post Kendrick-Drake beef. 😂
You could be right regarding Drake! Surprised to see Pitchfork only give it a 6.6, on third listen and although great not growing on me the way I his stuff usually does. Thanks for the comment!
Auto tune is a tricky thing, sometimes it serves as a style choice (in this case futuristic robotic etc) but other times it distracts and you do want to hear the real thing
Well said. It has a place, my fav album if last year Lil Yachty 'Lets Start here' had plenty of it but I feel there has been overkill this year, everyone's at it so lost its charm. Thanks for the comment!
Listen to "house in Nebraska" That's the one that got me into her music. My favorite atmospheric artist for the past two years
OK, will do. Gonna give 'Preachers Daughter' album a go and listen closely to this track. Feeling the love for them. Thanks for the comment!
maybe give preachers daughter a go
OK, look out for the review in the near future. Thanks for the comment.
could you listen to some rap songs by earl sweatshirt?
LOOOVE that Album, my fav by Earl! One that goes on regular as in my Vinyl collection. You obviously have fine taste. Thanks for the comment.
@ i know right, what a experience that album is. have you heard the thief next to jesus by KA?
Drum and Bass can definitely get repetitive. I love it but only in small doses
I love Ethel. Preachers Daughter is a great album. I plan to review it soon. Cheers!!
eh it was ok but it felt metalcore-ish
Sorry you didn’t like it but it being at the tail end of a 4 album stretch of rap music for you is probably a bit unfair to the album. As a fan of sahbabii I think this is a pretty impressive album and one of the best rap albums of the 2020s
You could well be right. Seems to be a lot of love for it out there so looks like I missed one. Thanks for the comment. :)
De gustibus non est disputandum. I think it's her best and one of my favorite releases of the year (oh, and I abhor "IDM", go figure).
Always tough on first listen, especially something as specialist as this. I'm glad you like it as that's all that really matters for you. :) Thanks for the comment.
Hello Gerai! I highly recommend reviewing the album "With love from a padded room" by Crippling Alcohoolism. Its definetly AOTY for me, and i think you will like it too.
Hi Jan! They already have 3 points from the band name alone. On it!
MF DOOM the legend
First time i saw Primal, they were playing a lot of 13th Floor Elevators covers! Mid 80s brilliant.
Lucky man David! Bet that's a hell of a memory. Saw them 'Rocks Of'f Era, Nottingham Rock City I think, might have been London....anyway they were ace. Thanks for comment!
@geraimusic I saw them in the basement bar at the Garage, in Notts, and at Rock City, few years later. The Garage was The club in Notts for decades! Got a mushroom/mayo butty from the upstairs cafe before they started, so was just another night of possibilities! Stay cool bud.
Excellent vibes throughout
Absolutely. Music made for all the right reasons. Thanks for the comment. :)
@ I like that. You can tell when the music has sincerity of a personal touch. Keep it up mate
Thanks for all of your music suggestions. Respect from Seattle.
Ahhhh...thanks Gravel Throat. Respect to you also. If you wanna align a few reviews somehow let me know. :)
@geraimusic Man, I would love that. Definitely interested. Do you have an Instagram so I can DM you?
Sadly no instagram (old man as you can see). Facebook (Chris Quantrill) or email is chrisquantrill@gmail.com. Look forward to see what we can do. :)
‘Love Insurrection’ is probably their best single since ‘Can’t Go Back’
You're a bigger fan than me. Peaked at 'Come Together' in my head. Thanks for the comment.
nahh bruv I have never seen a white guy of age reacting in the most polite way a hiphop album
Politeness is the one thing I can do something about and it costs nothing. :) Thanks for the comment which will take as compliment whether meant or not. :)
@@geraimusic okay, my bad, please allow me to try one more time. When I said politeness, I didn't mean that way, it was more like a response to the fact that u used, uhmm, let's say "very articulated" English. I'm not American nor English is my first language and I rarely use it so pardon me if some words escape. And it was so random because young Nudy is not a too famous, he is known by a small amount of people compared to the average celebrity. So, once again Pardon me, I should've written and laid it better... Nice content btw and hey , what's the best song for u in the album?
王中王中王中王中王中王中王中王中王
loved this album, can you give ‘Inbred’ by Ethel Cain a go? it’s in my top 3 albums of all time, it’s such a beautiful album. 31 minutes long
Will do and look forward to it as you obviously have great taste. :)
@@geraimusic thank you:) it’s one where you have to really read the lyrics, it’s such an amazing album
The breakdown according to hip hop by the numbers is 56% James Blake and 44% Lil Yachty but with cognitive biases its pretty reasonable for it to feel 70-30. Personally, this is on my AOTY short list with Chromakopia because as you said it is a strong James Blake album, and as you put it he is an artist I would go to war for. I'd take Lil Yachty to the airport tho so.
I'm sure Mr Yachty would appreciate the lift to the airport. Thanks for that, did you ever listen to 'Lets Start Here'? Justed check out Hip Hop by the numbers...thats cool! Thanks!
@@geraimusic I did and I really appreciated it in a lot of ways; however, I am not a huge fan of psychedelic rock as a genre. I don't say that to discredit the musicality that goes into it either, I loved his singing voice and I stan any artist who explores the vast potential that music has to offer.
Thanks for the listen. I really loved this album.
Interesting perspective, personally I adored the way the synths and more grime elements were mixed with the African drums and rhythyms. Also the message in Afrikan Di Alien, and the whole album I guess, is pretty gut wrenching.
I love MF i rlly miss him
That shit is fire
Fans of sahbabii say this is some of his best work. The use of unique words and his top tier beat selection puts this album firmly at an 8/10 for me.
Gerai, don't put the score in the title please. People won't stay around unfortunately. I wish you all the best. Good review, valid points with your perspective and explanation.
Thanks for the feedback, really appreciated. I get what you mean but ultimately I do this for me as a memory of what I have listened to and the scores help me organise. Perhaps if I accidentally grow to somewhere near making money I'll have a rethink. :)
yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Great synopsis. Loving the tape too. Keep it up
Thanks for that. Really appreciated. :)
