Gotta love how most of the worst albums stretch to near or over the one-hour mark just to extend your suffering for as long as possible.
More rap/hip hop
Horrifically boring and, more damning for the legitimacy of this list, horrifically inessential. 1/5
Not for me
Feels like being forced to listen to the bad but original musical release of a friend's friend on SoundCloud
Bad trip hop with bad rapping. Over an hour long.
.NO
garbage
Idk if it’s bc I’m tired or bc there’s so much going on but I’m having trouble paying attention. That was exceptionally boring.
Oh come on now you're just taking the piss.
shit
What a truly awful album
sounds like beat poetry over bad beats. the rhymes don't really match with the music.
I found nothing I can latch on to here. This is simply music that does not resonate with me.
I don’t think I’ve heard of Mike Ladd before. I’m not the most clued up person with hip hop in general so it isn’t really much of a surprise. I find a lot of it is very hit and miss with me. I cringe every time it gets over sexual because it just feels so lazy. Let’s listen! Songs I already knew: none Favourites: 5000 Miles West From The Future This started off promising, but then jumped into the cringey hyper sexual hip hop that I just can’t deal with. I ended up rolling my eyes so much that I was seeing into the Afterfuture myself. I can get how you’d enjoy this if that lyrical content didn’t bother you, but this did nothing for me. Let’s hope tomorrow brings something better.
Stringing together rhyming couplets doesn’t equate to hip hop, the lyrics still need to say something. These songs go no where, and except for the occasional almost accidental string, most of the song’s lyrics are pointless excuses to cram in references to genitalia
Nope
Not for me. Its electronic with rap and, nah. No tunes. Not intereted in listening to the lyrics. Gavit about 4 songs.
Never heard of this artist. Hoped it had stayed that way.
Nah
Not my style.
Gefällt mir nicht.
Not for me.
not for me. appreciate it but not great
not for me.
Bufffffffff 3/10
No es mi gusto pero igualmente gracias por el servicio.
Had to tap out 4 tracks in, the production is poor, the vocals are subpar, the lyrics aren’t interesting, felt like I was in a free range prison the way there were no bars.
what the fuck man i would rather hear yoko ono
ups parte dos
Everybody likes what they like. Spoken word events are not necessarily my thing. That’s the entire record except for “Wipe Out on the Wave of Armageddon”. That song is actually beautifully melodic. Unfortunately, the key to that one is there are no angry words. I do appreciate the album, though. Without albums like this, we wouldn’t appreciate the good stuff.
Nah
Nicht meins
Got tired of it especially when the pussy references started. Why waste my time.
Soms heb je van die albums waarvan je niet had verwacht dat ze nice zijn, en dan denk je “wow, dit album is best goed!” Dat was niet dit album, dit album was equivalent aan een oorschelpcarcinoom
I was unfamiliar with this artist. The first track grabbed me, and I was looking forward to the rest of the album. Sadly, it was relatively disappointing after that.
im a spiritual lyrical miracle spiritual lyrical miracle individual im a lyrical spiritual miracle spiritual lyrical miracle individual
Oh this was terrible
Just couldn't get into it, I'm sure there is something there, maybe the beat, but was a struggle to get through Best song(?) - airwave hysteria
The beat to “5000 Miles West of the Future” sounded just like the Brittney Spears song that has “Oh Baby, Baby”. I definitely sang that every time I heard that beat. “Planet 10” sounded like a meme. I immediately tuned out after that. But listened again when “Feb. 4 ‘99” came on because you can hear the passion from his message. Then it ended. 2/10
The background beats were too repetitive and not interesting. His flow was almost exactly the same on every song, just changed up the lyrics. You could take one verse from one song and put in into another and it would be unnoticeable. I did like Bladerunners since there were other people rapping other than Mike Ladd. To the Moon’s Contractor had a great section of instrumental beats and a nice break from having to listen to Mike Ladd. He used Skywalker to rhyme with Streetwalker multiple times in different songs. These are truly the drunk almost incoherent ramblings of a homeless man that happens to rhyme sometimes. The last song he evolved into an end of the world street preacher. Overall pretty unpleasant experience that I struggled to keep focused on due to wanting it to just end. 2/10
One of the worst things I've ever heard. Sounds like a 14 year old first attempt at a mixtape.
Fuck me, the guy who complied this list must have been drinking. No better hip hop albums than this?
I tried... but this was awful. Occasionally laugh out loud awful ('If I was an Catholic my name would be...Chris').
Did I listen to the right album? Sounded like a lot of low-fi mumblings. Picked up in places, still didn't like it.
Just can’t stand this sort of music.
God this was so fucking awful. I try to listen to every album in full, but that was a difficult task here. I ended up skipping about half the songs after I got halfway through them. Just fucking bad, repetitive, stupid lyrics, overly long. Ugh. How did anyone think this was worth listening to?
This album just felt overly complicated. Uninspiring beats, very poor flow. Really wanting you desiring more but given the other hip hop that was out at the time, it's very hard to see why this would even be considered for this 1001 list. 2/10.
Låter jättedåligt
Dit album laat me volkomen koud. Minpuntje erbij voor het gescheld en we zijn weer op het vertrouwde aantal sterren voor dit soort artiesten.
Hip-Hop 1/5
This sounds like a half-rate EL-P album you’d find in the $1 CD bin (EL-P even features on the album, and I’m not sure if that helps). Never heard of Mike Ladd before, now I know why.
Weird: So your telling me I sat here for 1h2m and heard hardly any music in that time. If you want to sit there and listen to I'd say 50 mins of random quite noises and another 10 of sub-par rapping then this is your album. I get that the tracks hold meaning with the last song being in reference to a significant event (not sure what) and making some commentary on what happened, I understand that's important but that album from a musical perspective is just plain bad and I won't be listening to it again any time soon.
Not for me, or for many others judging by the number of streams the tracks have, most of which are likely to be the people doing this online activity
Absolutely awful. Painful to listen.
D 5000 Miles West of the Future - 2 Airwave Hysteria - 1 Planet 10 - 2 Takes More Than 41 - 2 Bladerunners - 1 No. 1 St. — 2 To the Moon’s Contractor - 1 I Feel Like $100 - 2 The Animist - 1 Red Eye to Jupiter - 1 Welcome to the Afterfuture - 1 Wipe Out on the Wave of Armageddon- 2 Feb. 4 ’99 - 1 When woofmeow taught me that Mike Ladd went to Hampshire College, I felt so grateful. She left out one thing though: he's white. Bet you didn't see that one coming. One of those classic Elvis moments.
No thanks - it's just rap and weird noises - not of any interest to me at all.
Not really interesting in 2023. Maybe in 2000 when most were afraid of the millennium scarecrow.
Absolute garbage. Shame I can't give it 0 stars.
Não tem no deezer, assim não me pareceu um disco que valesse a pena dar a chance para a provável monotonia de um disco de hip-hop.
It insists upon itself.
Not for me
Awefull
Well, I listened to it.
Album unavailable on Amazon Music.
The beginning was really bad. Didn't like that at all. Going further into the album, it got a bit better, but didn't convince me to vote more than 1 star.
Way to experimental, spoken word
Takes More Than 41 me hizo revisar la duración del disco. 1h 2 min. Esto no pinta nada bien. Las primeras 3 muy equis. Las instrumentales no me gustaron. En general siento que es un disco aburrido, aunque tiene partes interesantes pero no son lo suficiente para tener una buena impresión del disco. 1.5 que bajo a 1.
Not available on Spotify
Not available on Spotify. From other reviews it sounds like I dodged a poor album. Cover art 4/5
Usually a sucker for a bit of protest hip hop, bu this is dead milk. Nothing catchy, lackluster vocals, and poorly produced
couldnt listen to it so it gets a 1
Not available
Mike Ladd gave me monkeypox on the train back from Luton Airport last week. He can go fuck himself.
Not really for me.
Listened Before? N Seems like this guy put a lot of effort in here. I hope he mad lots of money. I won't be listening again, I did not enjoy it.
While I understand the experimental aspect of this album, the album still felt unpolished or unfinished. I enjoyed the overall electronic additions found here. There were also several nods to Indian music, which was fun to hear. Otherwise, this was pretty forgettable for me.
Nope
Just never got me. Kept hoping the next song would get me going but never did.
Hier kon ik echt helemaal niets mee.
There’s nothing about this that even remotely interests me musically.
I didn’t much care for this one. I don’t think I’d listen again.
Some of the strangest I're ever heard. Like a freaked out 70's hippie who came up with an idea to make music.
Not very good
Wtf did I listen to
Really could not get into it after a few songs
Mierda hip hop
