Not my thing
Yikes
I can understand The Message in 1001 Songs, but not this.
"Respect to the pioneers of rap, but this is some of the corniest music I have ever heard" c
Наверное это мой ад
Pretty bland
😞👎🏻
nope
Has all the elements to be a great record, yet it ends up disappointing. Boring and lyrics often seem kind of naive. I guess the album is only worth it for the title track. Won't hear again.
More like Grandmaster trash.
I'm only on the first track.. uhhhhhh what is this The message is good tho
The Message er en anthem som har hatt en innflytelse på popmusikken som knapt kan overdrives. Likevel er det ikke til å komme unna at hip hop før Eric B. & Rakim egentlig var ganske dritt, og at vi må over på 90-tallet før det virkelig ble bra. Jeg er helt med på at The Message er med i lista 101 singler du må høre før du dør, men LPen er en historisk artefakt som bør granskes kun av hip hop archeologer. Fett albumcover, da.
not my vibe
Nope.
Not my idea of music
Musicalmente está bien. Las letras y las melodías son lamentables. Le dedican una canción a Stevie Wonder (?) con una letra propia de un niño de cinco años, incluyendo "creemos en todo lo que ves"...¿En serio? ¿Nadie pensó en lo inconveniente de ese verso? Es gente hablando rápido, pero al menos tiene algo de ritmo humano. No obstante, una mierda. Esto es una patraña.
Things have really moved on since
Fav songs: Scorpio; The Message As an album in the strict definition of a cohesive collection of songs telling a story or setting a mood, this fails utterly. I appreciate listening to an early attempt of hip hop to bring an album together. That said, it's hard to get passed the corny paeans to Stevie Wonder on "Dreaming" and Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on "You Are." There two great songs on here definitely worth listening to but rest of the album is unnecessary. There are better hip hop albums in the whole.
Not a fan of hip hop in general, this album was not an exception
No va
Rap, blechhh. 1/5
I couldn't listen to the whole album. Not the kind of music I enjoy.
never heard the full album before but it has not aged well I like the message and the other songs I've heard in gta but man this album was kinda harsh on the ears
I respect how influential this album, but I don't think it makes it good. There are some cool beats but it's whatever. I would never listen to this when later 80s and early 90s groups improved on it vastly. Giving this a 1 but I understand why it was on the list
i was really not a fan, i had a bad time
didn't care for it
last 2 songs were decent but nahhhh
No comment
no.
Not my vibe
no rap for me :-(
Seemed very repetitive to me. I did not care for it.

A lil too old fashioned for me but ya gotta respect their big hit
No not hip hop… The first song gave me hope for The album, But already at the third song “Scorpio” I figured this album was not for me.
Didn’t listen, will listen now
It's Nasty: that hook again! -- this is where I learned it came from the Tom Tom Club, Genius of Love. Very groovy, fun listening for the first couple tracks. Scorpio was weird. Then Dreamin'/You Are were like R&B ballads, took me by surprise. Feels disjointed. And then The Message has the hook sampled by that "girls is players too" song! Iconic. Overall maybe a 1.5 for me, 1*.
Too groovy for my liking.
Basically one good song and a load of shite
Not sure what I expected
Nope
rubbish
I tried to get over the mumbling, screeching voice, and synths but I just couldn't. This was so boring. Definitely not my thing.
Four Songs in and I gave up, this isn't for me.
Gar nicht mein Ding.
2 ok this is hard, cause this really fucking sucks Yea this a 1 Oh thats the meme maybe not
Just noise...
Nã ouvi, pois não tem no deezer.
Je comprends que c'est un album important historiquement pour les début du rap mais sérieux ça vieilli pas full bien Il manquait beaucoup de tounes sur spoty mais j'en ai eu assez...
sample city. rent bajs, önska att jag kunde ratea 0
I like the funky parts, but those parts didn't outshine, or even complement, the rapping.
