I have to be honest and say that I was thrown off a bit by some of the songs at first, but ultimately the album REALLY grew on me. I paused the album just to listen to this review - and now I'm going back into the Atrocity Exhibition.

    A 10 would be perfectly justified and so would a 2 or a 1. This album is just so fucking polarizing. You can't really have a 100% correct opinion on this because its just so left-field, I don't believe there's a hip hop album like this out there. I think that this album is probably up there with TPAB (in terms of hip hop albums this decade), possibly even better just because of how deep and experimental it is, and I have no doubt this will be a classic. This album just feels like another 808s and heartbreaks as in it might even inspire an entire generation or movement of these experimental sounding artists which would further diversify hip hop.
    Y'all know this is just my opinion, right?

      As amazing as this album is, I really doubt that it would 'inspire a movement' like 808s did, mainly as it's way too left field to appeal to any sort of mainstream audience, also danny brown is suprisingly indie, so I doubt that it'd catch up.

    “The more pleasure Danny seeks …. the more pain and fear he has to deal with” this is so true and probably the most powerful aspect of the theme of Atrocity Exhibition in my mind. Danny has really lived this painful, grimy life that so much of us have as well. On the track “Ain’t it funny” he says “it’s a living nightmare that most of us might share, inherited in our blood, it’s why we’re stuck in the mud, can’t quit the drug use or the alcohol abuse even if I wanted to, tell you what I’m gonna do: I’ma wash away my problems with this bottle of henny, anxiety got the best of me so I’m poppin them xannies. Might need rehab but to me, that shit’s pussy, pray for me y’all cause I don’t know what’s coming to me.” That is the realest and grittiest portrayal of drug addiction that I’ve ever heard in any song.

    Danny Brown has been on my periphery for some time now and I have listened to a few of his tracks many times, but I always kind of thought of him as making party music. Creative party music, but still party music. But this album is different and I was not ready. Is it strange? Yes, absolutely. But for me, it is one of the best, freshest hip-hop albums I have heard in probably 10 years. It honestly reminds me of the early years of Outkast when just an album or two could completely change your opinion on what is possible in the genre. You can call me a back-packer but my favorite tracks are definitely the most experimental ("Tell Me What I don't Know", "Ain't it Funny", "Goldust" "White Lines", "Dance in the Water", "When it Rain" and "Get Hi", oddly enough roughly in that order even though that is the track listing order).

    When It Rain is freakin' insane! I mean, like, when you listen to this track you are just happy to be alive on this Earth and be able to hear that! I go crazy every single time I hear it.

    Shout out for the persuasion on this masterpiece. Took me 3 years to digest, but the wait was worth it

    I hated 'Old' and went into this album expecting to hate it... but I didn't. It's great.

      And Earl is one of the highlights for me too.

    the transition from gold dust to whitelines is the most beautiful moments on this album

    Crazy. Golddust is one of my favorite tracks.

    Your review made me buy the album and I'm not disappointed. I just got lost in it for 45 minutes. No artist can duplicate this sound.

    I love that after all of that praise and virtually no criticism, it wasn't even a "Strong 9"

      Weird, because it was his #1 Album of 2016, above many "Strong 9's" like the Death Grips album or the A Tribe Called Quest album
