I’m happy with my current tracklist. It’s focused and s----s all over my last tape. It won’t be for everyone, but this time I finally get my redemption. It’s stuff I listen to, not just a bunch of random songs I haven’t touched in a decade.

That said, I’m mostly looking forward to see what you guys have and add some new stuff to my catalog. My 70s and 80s collection is looking pretty thin and I’m also down to expanding my 90s section, which doesn't stack up to the 2000s.

Playboy Carti- I Am Music review

I somehow made it through the entire album, it f---ing sucks. The guy is trash, there isn't one part of this i like. I found myself wondering why Kendrick Lamar would work with this f---ing loser.

90 percent of the time I can't understand a f---ing word he's saying. This album sucks, literally the worst piece of s--- I've ever listened too.

1/10

That’s 90s part helps a lot even though I already have a handful from the 70s and 80s

can’t wait to see what everyone else comes up with!

 

Mar 17, 2025

I don’t know much about the 70s or 80s so my mixtape probably gonna be 90s heavy but we will see

 

Mar 17, 2025

h--- yeah

I was almost done putting together a strictly 70s/80s mixtape today, and it was turning out better than I expected lol. But I’m all for switching it up. This is gonna be a b-----r round.

Also @AOTWClub

Mixtapes will be 70s-80s-90s

Big.Monkeys Blow Up Doll Review

Favorite songs: D.R.U.G.S, Symmetry, The Valley / Dead Or Alive, Feel At Home, Reality Check, The Come Up, F (r) iends, Lemon
Least favourite: Fresh Prince , DEEPER

Listening to an all-rap mixtape was surprisingly refreshing. None of the tracks here were familiar so it was nice to discover some new music. Over the past few years, I’ve been fully immersed into rock/metal so it’s been a while since I’ve given rap much attention.

The song selection was solid and the transition between them was smooth. The opener was great, it was cool to hear some newer stuff along with some old-school tracks like The Come Up. The production on F(r)iends was very impressive.

That said, there were still a few tracks I wasn’t into. Fresh Prince felt very basic and repetitive. Alchemist who’s production I never really liked.

Overall, it was a well-curated mixtape. Despite the uncalled snitching attempt to SM lol, and the questionable scoring of my own mixtape, which I can only assume was an honest review, I’m here to focus on the music and this was definitely one of the better mixtapes.

8.2/10

Playboi Carti - MUSIC

review

Had a lot of time to bump the new Carti today and I feel like I am ready as ever to write my review.

Honestly, Carti to me is an artist with great potential. He isn’t exactly what I usually listen to but I cannot deny that he has made dozens and dozens of classic, energetic songs. Sometimes his style just clicks and specific songs go crazy hard in the moment lol, s----s tend to sound like they belong on a video game soundtrack of sorts.

I feel like it is the same exact scenario every time carti drops, opinions will radically shift within 1 or 2 months and this album will be considered a classic by his cult following. I don’t even say that in a negative way, it is cool when music is given time to grow and age - it shouldn’t be a black and white scenario after all.

When I look back at this album in the future I’ll probably have its horrid f---ing release and copium inducing delays etched permanently into my brain. It is like Carti, his team, and the label as well, actively worked toward committing genocide over whatever hype this album was getting when it was first teased. And it was massive hype. In my opinion, he should’ve compiled 10ish bangers and struck while the iron was still hot - akka, drop a year or two after WLR.

The reason I’m formatting my review like this instead of talking in depth about the songs is that it is really difficult to try and textually do justice to any 30 tracks, especially to Carti’s because his s--- is just different lol - hard to have have a traditional review. I’ve been lucky to have the time today to listen to the whole thing almost 4 times and as an album it just did not do it for me. The songs I genuinely enjoyed on this album were: Crush, Mojo jojo, Philly, Crank, Cocaine Noise, Hba, and Good Credit. There are some pretty hard tracks on here but none of them, IMO, go as hard as my favorites off of Die Lit. That album was a kind of ‘lightning in the bottle’ moment I guess, it is hard for a style such as his to both be consistent and to mature well. What turned me off from this album is, for starters, the 30 song tracklist. Carti is not your typical LP artist, atleast to me. When I play his music I rarely do it by playing whole albums. To me he is an excellent playlist rapper. It is my opinion that it’s impossible for a 30 song album to be consistently good. Carti’s I am Music is obvious proof of this. A lot of the tracks blend into one another, it is all over the place. The beats often sound unfinished, like they were made in 15 minutes and mixed with an aliexpress stereo system. Not that crazy about the voice change either lol. Somebody said that Carti, on this album, sounds like biden on fent - and d---, I can hear it.

The good songs on here are somewhat well spread out but it is not easy to save a 30 song album once mediocre tracks start lining up. I was pretty hyped for this project, but perhaps I’ve screwed myself by hoping for something spacier and more potent.

I leave now to cleanse my ears with this great mixtape from Allis, going to write a review on it soon. Wanted to do that today but then this dropped and I had to set it aside for a bit cause ‘the upcoming Carti album’ was lowkey mythologized during these past few years. I’m not that impressed with it. Carti surely has something better and more refined than this in him.

4.5/10

I'm personally keeping everyone who scored any of my picks below a 6.5 on a revenge list where I only give them 1/10s

My of my favorite bits I did on the forum was reviewing one of his projects in depth without listening to a second of it
