Mama Said Knock You Out

LL Cool J

2/5

All the bad traits of 90s Rap that killed Hip Hop. The tracks were ok but the lyrics were crap. Also the line "I Sure wouldn't rape you' is worrying

Good background music

Your Arsenal

Morrissey

Music was fine, just lesser Smith's really. Some problematic lyrics that remind you who you're listening to.

The ArchAndroid

Janelle Monáe

Short and sweet

Got slightly repetitive and some of the guitar effects were a bit much but other than that it's a solid album
