Post AOTY contenders, I'll start
I don't think it's AOTY but I still love it. I just love that sound that Cudi came up with when he released MOTM and I love that he's back to it.
>tfw an artist you had literally fucking dropped releases another good album
>>69769111
This.
That album is awful, is this a meme?
>>69769267
Is it a meme, or are we contrarians?
lets post real answers please
>>69769267
What was it that made it bad?

The problem with cudi releasing an album that is even considered decent on /mu/ is that after he released Speeding Bullet he was already considered a meme. The trolls hailing his new album as great are indistinguishable from the people who honestly believe it. The lines are skewed, blurred. You cannot trust your eyes alone anymore.

Tbh I am more curious what makes it good at all.
The whole album is built on "vibes" instead of good songwriting or catchy melodies and the only half-interesting song is By Design. Swim In The Light is also one of the worst songs I've heard in a while, it is just repeating an uncatchy chorus for most of the song with a terrible beat behind it, and I hear people praising it and in general I am just confused why people like this.
The only good thing about this album is that it is slightly better than his past few albums, I'd give it a 3/10

Do people like Tonedeff on /mu/?
He's unquestionably a good rapper but I fucking hate his sound

>>69770423
The production was the best part shut up homosexual
>>69770423
are you kidding me? the production is insane on every level, incredibly inspiring as a hip hop producer myself.
if you've never tried to make music, you have no right to criticize the production
AOTY should be this and only this.
>>69770666

This and coles album fucked me up.
before this i was like ye its alright i can prob make a list of good albums this year even tho tons of good ones came out from basically every popular artist and most underground 2
then they came out and other than deja vu coles album is great fucking impossible 2 consider best album 4 me. guess ill just wait till gramys to see what they decide.
personal pick for rap AOTY
+ JEFFERY, Floss
- YG, TLOP, Chance
>>69771329
for me Jeffery, Passion Pain and Demon Slayin', and Savage Mode all tie for the top spot
>>69771402
Not a Cudi fan but savage mode is a +album. Like it a lot better than scHoolboy and J Cole's projects
>>69771530
even if you're not a fan I'd urge you to give Cudi's latest a try. I think it's way better than anything he's ever done. if you enjoy great melodies over amazing production like young thug, you might like this album.
>>69771329
you're a faggot
>>69769322
Kid Cudi was always a meme. Le depressed weed man mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmooooooaoaaaaaaaaa
>>69771044
cole's album is a solid 4-5/10 for me
>for whom the bell tolls is nice but this has nothing to do with the next track which contextually makes no sense.
>head game stronger than a few excedrin.
this honestly doesn't even fit for his wife let alone the concept of the album where its for his daughter
>that part about corporations on the second part that was brutally unnecessary.
>ville mentality with that god awful singing and repeating lines over and over
>deja vu being straight trash
>changes having that funeral part which doesn't coincide with neighbors following after it
>most of the album is about cole himself rather than his friend, i didn't even know this was through his friend's perspective that this album's for his daughter until after seeing the lyrics for 4 your eyez only.
>rhyming almond milk with milk, not utilizing foldin clothes as a greater metaphor for being a loyal companion.
>overall this concept on this album is weak
>>69770666
Nice dadrock logic
