No

I don't care for this.

I cannot stand the beats in background. It feels like I'm listening to a bunch of electricity. If I wanted to listen to this album, I may as well go to the local science center and put my ear next to the electric ball. Vocals are not for me either. For me, this album has 0 redeeming qualities. My first 1/5

Hated this.

Would never put this album on again! Paper planes seems to be their only good hit

I only know her through the cash register song, which is pretty good. This album is not. This is unintelligible, repetitive, and the music/beats are not appealing at all. Fav tracks: N/A

This project has some very interesting ideas and was highly influential on artists in the internet age. Why does it suck so bad?

Not music, so bad couldn’t finish it.

Hard to get into anything outside of 'Paper Planes'

Annoying is the correct word for MIA. The lyrics just aren't there. Been a hip hop fan for decades, but this is just bad.

Well, succeeded in one thing: most boring one of the 500 in the list so far.

Not a good album in the slightest. Seemed like the artist just picked random phrases to sing over random beats with the most random noises played over it. Would never recommend

This sounds overwhelmingly like the sort of skipping songs that primary school kids used to sing. In isolation some of the tunes aren’t entirely horrendous. Put together, however, this is, I’m afraid, one of the worst things I’ve listened to for a while. It might even be worse than Thriller, and I really hate Thriller with a passion. Whoever categorised this as World music is having a laugh. This is firmly routed in Saaarf London primary schools.

I mean Paper Planes is a banger but damn I don’t vibe with this album

They put this on the list over Graduation?!

Annoying noise, can’t keep up with her admittedly great famous single.

That one is good but otherwise oof

Je suis extrêmement confuse par cet album. Qu'est ce que je viens d'écouter ??

This sounds like a teenager who recorded herself with a Casio keyboard.

The musical equivalent of heart palpitations.

Trash

not for me

omg I hated this so much, I'm sorry. I did listen to \"Paper Planes\" after (which I heard before but didn't realize it was her, and I do like that song), but this album felt like a teenage girl making songs in her room which were about as good as the songs I'd make in my room when I was a kid. Seriously, the cantankerous bitch in me feels she got an easy pass on that album because she's a minority and female and it was a sort of \"fresh voice\" kind of thing--I dunno. Not impressed.

uhhh idk not for me

"Most sparkling debut since Madonna." Madonna is overrated shit, this is unlistenable shit. Fair call.

Schrecklich. Gefällt mir garnicht. 2.7/10

was looking forward to this as I liked what I heard from MIA before specifically "Paper Planes" and her feature on "FRANCHISE", but man this was a painful listen, couldn't finish the album.

Takes every wrong turn. I could probably come up with something more melodic by smashing my head on a piano. DNF

耳は燃えている あまり良い火ではない......

did not finish, style is too experimental for my tastes. an album i'd need to come back to when in the mood for it, i only like a few singles from M.I.A. and they aren't in this album

Horrible. This album is terrible and completely undeserving of any recognition. Shrill, British, female recording artists must have a special place in Robert Dimery's heart as there is nothing remotely redeeming about this atrocity. Something, something British bias and this album doesn't even have this one hit wonder's one hit...

A little repetitive for my taste.

I bet...if you played this for a baby...they'd cry waaaah waaaah 😭

Oh no. List what were you thinking adding these. oh god please no. If I wanted to give myself aids I would have taken a different route, but listening to this album in its entirety gave me aids. So I guess I have aids now

Trash. Offended my musical soul

Oh god this is terrible

Worst one yet

This is very personal taste but do not like the rap style. It sounds whiney and she often go out of key or bend on places that feels wierd. The beats are bland and sometimes annoying. Not an album for me.

Couldn't get through this album. Just when part of a song starts to get catchy, a cacophony of dissonant samples and effects are mashed into your eardrums. On the plus side you get a bit of a break with the skits.

This genre isn’t mine.

Quite exhausting to listen to. Not getting it at all. On track 5 and I am knackered. No sign of any tunes yet. Now giving me a headache. Will not be listening to this again. This one's for the kids. My brain is not wired for this.

Did not like

So wierd i dont like it

ugh, another album of hers? Ok, whatever. Ok, it's awful. 1/5.

Nee, dit werkt echt niet voor mij.

The entire time listening to this album I had that annoyed Clint Eastwood look on my face.
