Maybe dated in its sound but this album kicks ass, and I’ll always be up for another listen. Jerry Cantrell is a genius

Gives similar vibes to Lauryn Hill, just not as grandiose. Good album though (3.5/5)

Another run of the mill, assumedly British, indie rock project that will leave you scratching your head “why did I HAVE to hear this one?” (2.5/5)

Never knew that love song was his. Neil continues to surprise me (3.5/5)

More lukewarm this time around but this is still my favorite album of theirs. Maybe too many Mr. Brightsides have worn me down (3.5/5)

Really liked this one, the loops weren’t grating and there were a couple precursor lofi tracks I really liked (3.5/5)

Lovely voice, but I’ll repeat what I’m assuming every review has said, way too long. Completely unnecessary as you’ll get the full experience after disk 1

The twangy whiney blues country can be grating but this didn’t overstay its welcome. Plus I love recognizing songs that I had zero knowledge of, in this case Act Naturally playing in one of the Jackass movies (2.5/5)

A bit too down tempo for my taste in Iggy, but there are some solid songs on here. My favorite was Tiny Girls

The singer and their usage in advertisements for jeans or cars or whatever give me the ick. I hear this obnoxious nasal pitch and think of a corporation that wanted a “rockin” song to push some products, that’s just my brain being busted. The drum and bass sections are pretty interesting on here though (2.5/5)

A classic that I have some bits of nostalgia for, and at the time it was the heaviest rock n roll you could get. It’s a bit dated and cheesy, and there are some clunkers but I think it’s still enjoyable and deservedly belongs here (4.5/5)

I’ve found you really have to be in the mood for Frank’s humor and zaniness to not go over like a lead balloon. I wasn’t really in the mood but this album isn’t very out there either. I guess I’m just hoping a more Zappa album will come along on a day I’m in the mood to listen

A good dose of late 80s pop, in terms of her discography I like it less than Control (3.5/5)

It’s been a little while since I’ve listened to this and the nostalgia from Kick Push alone is a little nauseating. It’s tough to rate because I do love this album despite the rough spots and places I see that Lupe develops over time on his later work (like a Tetsuo & Youth), but that’s unfair to hold that against this album. Last thing though, even if it bogs down the replay-ability, rap should bring back the 10 minute shout out outro songs. They always make me smile and it’s nice to hear an artist give thanks to the people that matter to them

Solid, been a minute since I’ve heard (3.5/5)

Yep that’s CCR. Prom music for Mississippi in the 70s (2.5/5)

FISH CAKES (2.5/5)

Timberlake and Timbaland just could not miss during this era (3.5/5)

Oh yeah, this album fucks. S/o to Gorillaz for introducing me to Bobby which made me pick this album up on a whim. Enjoyed this listen through as well and reminded me to go through his other works

One of the 80s synth pop albums of all time (2.5/5)
