Reviews (page 8 of 8)
I don't know how I feel about this. There's definitely a cool sound here that I can get in to, but nothing really grabs me. The lyrical flow is really solid and it's bizarre in a good way, but just isn't for me
Me podría morir sin escuchar esto.
Horrible, worse than horrible
Meh, not great. Boring
This was a chore to listen to. I didn't find it doing anything really interesting other than moral shock stuff. god that stunk
I liked the beats (sucker for trip hop), but even that couldn’t redeem this album. Far too many uses of “rectum” 🤮
Boring now a days
I want to like this album so bad but the lyrics are just so mediocre and gross at times. I love the beats and the idea is so cool. Its just when there's 2 min of record scratching or sexualizing a gynecologist visit? Like that's so weird! When have you ever heard someone sexualize a colonoscopy? Like what does that have to do with being a mad scientist? I know this is a debut album so I'm still giving credit the cover is pretty cool. Honestly skipped multiple tracks due to the lyrics being to uncomfortable. Horrible start to the 2024 album review list.
I guess the editors wanted to put an "alternative rap" album in the book. This album is not as interesting as Dr. Octagon may think it is. No clue why this album is in the book.
First listen Saved 2/20 Top track: I'm Destructive
Haha funny rap
This is just another example of me really not enjoying hip hop. It’s so bad. Maybe in terms of hip hop music this is actually incredible, but I have heard very little hip hop that I’ve liked. Wanted to give up half way through but I kept going. Not many tracks I can say I enjoyed, and some (Earth People, how is that one of the most streamed on the album?!) were just straight up annoying to listen to. What a waste of time this was. 2/10 Top 1: 1. No Awareness
Way too off-kilter for my taste.
AJ: read the wiki. Hard pass.
Skits...Repetitive...Meh, not for me. It is also very crass, I would not feel comfortable playing this in public. I did like "Halfsharkalligatorhalfman" though.
“A Visit to the Gynecologist” ummm WTF no thanks.
I did not enjoy this.
Yeah, give this a wide berth! I had to check whether ‘Kool Keith’ was a 12 year old boy, in which case some of it would have been impressive, but sadly not.
Wasn’t really a fan. There were some okay beats but the lyrics were kind of weird. Maybe I just didn’t get it
Too long; didn't care. Doesn't need to be on this list. Don't know why it is.
Couldn’t finish this. What a waste of one of the few hip hop slots here. Never heard of this this guy before and with good reason.
Really truly awful
couldn't finish it, it sucked
1. Absolutely not.
Absolutely horrendous
I couldn’t even finish it that’s how terrible it was. I stopped after visit to the gynaecologist it’s basically a song about a dude pretending to be a woman doctor so he can look at a girls vagina. He gives her exercises to do to loosen it and then after he reveals that he’s a man and obviously she freaks out. The other songs were also just the worst music I’ve heard in a long time. Terrible album don’t listen to it
- incredibly sexual - uncomfortable at points - uses big words and phrases to sound smart, but he’s just listing them - the only saving grace is the beats, but that’s not enough
No.
I always listen to albums all the way through but I couldn’t for this one. It’s just off putting and the intro was so weird
Can I stop listening to this? This is boring at best and disgusting at worst. Nothing here earns that musical quality seal to excuse some of the things said on here, and while I know that's the point, that doesn't mean I want to listen to it. Yes, the scratching and some of the beats are rarely good, but any album that thinks using Canon in D as a back beat is clever is no musical genius in my eyes. I'm only halfway through this and already want to stop, and that's rare for an album, even my one stars. After finishing it (although I did skip a good chunk of the songs once I figured out he was just gonna be rapping about rectums once again) I can confirm this is the lowest of the low. This may be my least favorite album so far, and if not, it's still terrible.
Laughable, belongs on the list of 1001 albums that were released for no apparent reason.
Awful, Actual Garbage
I felt violated. It was either a shitty song, softcore porn, or both.
Why are the worst albums always the longest? There's an attempt at making some sort of themed narrative throughline here, but no effort is put into making any of the beats or bars interesting. Every musical aspect of the LP feels phoned in and tired, and that's exactly how I felt as a result of listening.
What the heck was this? Hot garbage. Maybe it's an example of the first cringy annoying rap album? Did it rhyme? Sure. Was it good? No.
Lazy beats. Some corny bars even for the 90s. Flows are nice which compensate for some of the lack-luster rhymes but fail to save the album as a whole. Pretty disturbing. Favorite song: I’m Destructive
Terrible
Jesus, this album is gross. Don't really want to hear about a gynecologyst making sexual advances towards his patients... The music isn't really that good either. It's not absolute horrible, like many of my other 1 stars, but there's nothing interesting happening, and the flow isn't much to write home about for a majority of the album. Some of the sounds present on the album aren't pleasant on the ears. The scratches can be nice, I suppose. I guess the most notable thing about this album is how horny it can get, but it gets a bit uncomfortable. The humour didn't make me laugh, so that probably affected my enjoyment of this album. If I had a quarter for every time I heard the words "butt crack" and "rectum" on this album, I'd have a decent amount of quarters on my hands. I'm just glad it's over. Not a good way to have spent an hour of my life. My favourite song was Blue Flowers, but I didn't really like anything on here.
Angry rap.
Ew.
Damn, how old is this guy anyways, 12 yrs old? Gimmicky, sophomoric and crude lyrics. The intro that sounds like its from a porn flick made me roll my eyes but the worst song is I got to tell you which drops infantile bombs referring to doo doo and pee pee with Pachelbel's Canon in the background (ie., Classical music for people who don't know shit about Classical music). Also, the cover and name of the album sucks.
1 star
Awful.
Vibe of this album summed up in one word is “Weird” which I usually quite enjoy… But I hated this. And it’s an hour in length, so basically torture. Only positive comment I really have is that it was certainly a unique concept! Terrible execution. I didn’t enjoy his flow or voice, though some of the beats were fine. Lyrics were undeniably unique, but the interesting lyrical moments were undermined by some of the excruciatingly repetitive choruses (if you can call them that…) and the juvenile topics/jokes. It did improve as it went on, from the first 5 songs I honestly thought it was the worst album I’d ever heard but by the end I was less horrified. Best tracks (i.e. vaguely bearable): Blue Flowers, Bear Witness, Dr Octagon, Technical Difficulties Worst tracks: Intro (gross), 3000, I Got To Tell You (shockingly irritating for an interlude), Earth People, No Awareness (one of the worst songs I’ve ever forced myself to sit through), Girl Let Me Touch You (creepy), 1977
Stupid
Absoluut niet mijn ding. Hier zijn al veel betere rapalbums gepasseerd
pretty childish and boring album, can't believe this is here and animals by Pink Floyd isn't
Honestly, this isn't the worst rap we've had from this list so far. Not by a long shot. So I guess it merits at least 1.5 stars. However, I'm still rounding it down. I really don't like rap and this album isn't doing anything to change my mind about that.
1996: Blue Flowers
