Real talk What the fuck went wrong?

Horrible use of features

Bad features and meh songs. He could've done better I think he just half assed it

Damon Albarn got an ego. Also he tried to make a Trumpcore album, the cringiest genre.

Listen to his song exploder. Dude is full of himself. He lives in a bubble where he sees himself as a musical god, so he doesn't try as hard anymore. It happens to a lot of people, look at Jay-Z's dumpster fire of an album.

Albarn is pushing 50. Nobody approaching that age has ever made fresh music.

He's still done a buttload of art projects, that will be referenced forever, than anyone in this pathetic place ever will.

Tbh I'm beginning to think this whole thing was entirely due to Damon just wanting money to build a new addition on his house. Which is - I mean - props to him. It's the same way Michael Caine makes his casting choices.

>bad features
literally the biggest draw of this album is that it has a track with a guy from blur and noel gallagher from oasis

>>73677605
The features aren't bad, the way they are used are.

>>73676950
He ran out of ideas and in a panic, he couldnt be humble and let the fame fade away and made one more cash cow.

He tried to make an album inspired by world events that also appealed to his daughter. Sleeping Powder is proof that he's still got it when his head's in the right place, though.

Let's see, I adore Blur and Gorillaz but even I thought Humanz was incredibly underwhelming. Damon is really talented but he works best with Graham or Jamie. Humanz really lacked Jamie's input I felt, the characters never had a presence. Plastic Beach was loaded with guest spots and even then it felt incredibly focused, unlike Humanz.

Albarn and Hewlett were uninterested in continuing with Gorillaz, was forced by Parlophone instead.
