    I think 2/10 is a bit harsh, musically it's ok. But the pretentiousness alone is enough to drive it down to a -2/10

    i like his reviews because i think he's well spoken and articulate

    but i don't hold his opinions any higher than the next guy. to me, ratings for music hold very little weight

    Not surprised honestly. The album definitely doesn't deserve a 2 but I'm not surprised. I will say that lil "You laugh at me because I'm different, while I laugh at you because you're all the same." bit better be brought up for Saturation II. I like Brockhampton, but I'm not gonna pretend that they don't be on that same kinda wave too.

    This aint accurate at all. This album isnt like X's typical screaming bs he actually made a solid piece of work. Im not saying its a 10/10 project but calling it a 2 is just ignorant.

    They really aren't. Do they sound as flat and boring trying to convey the same emotions X does on 17? Not really. They don't try to go as Emo as X does on this.

    nah it's not just that he has differences in opinion it's that his views on rap are clearly influenced by browsing /mu/ too much and only getting into rap these days and only rap that appeals to his pseudo-art hoe aesthetic

    If ur gonna be a legitimate critic on rap your knowledge needs to extend further back than mbdtf and odd future's formative years
