    It's not because an album has a concept or a great idea behind it that it can't be bad... execution is more important, form>content

      @@WaddupYTthat’s his point. great concepts add to the listening experience, however concept alone is not enough to be good. if so, anything by NF, Kid Cudi’s Speeding Bullet album, etc would be considered good. concept and ideas alone aren’t enough. the songs also need to be good.

      I've been going about this for the longest time. Garbage conscious records which slightly touch on any societal problems are regarded higher than 90% of great modern trap and pop rap. It should be a 10/90 split with the idea being the 10% and execution the majority. Nihilistic and sad music in general will always be elevated and kept to a higher level of respect than that of happier and more vibe music despite in general both being of the same quality. Someone like Drake gets so much shit just because he doesn't make anything depressing.. as if there already weren't enough artists for that before and after him.

      A lyrically dense summertime banger with a 9/10 beat and SZA sang hook about life being good will be frowned upon by hipsters but an awful and uninspired Earl sweatshirt song with his boring ass voice, adequate production and unimaginative lyrics with a hint of suicidal thoughts sprinkled in will be all their song of the year and the one they defend to the grave

    While Lasers is Lupe's weakest album I can't believe it's rated bad over some of these other albums, it has aged badly and didn't sound great on release but there's still songs where he's simply rapping too well for me to walk away from it saying it's a bad album. I'd certainly rather listen to Lasers vs. some of the other albums that were in contention but not called "bad" on this list.

      Definitely mid pushing bad like they said. Him and his camp did all that talking just to rush out the final version of the album.

    L take by Lu. Drip or Drown 2 is a good album. Not on the level of Wunna... but it is a good album

    I agree with the Fix Before the Six being bad, but not happily. It hurts to say it since it’s Weezy.
