Mariah Carey
With very few exceptions, up tempo MC > down tempo MC
Too often her voice is expected to do the heavy lifting over song ideas that probably shouldn't have made it past demo stage.

I’m so conflicted. At the time I thought this was one of the best produced records I’d ever heard. Of course modern day Kanye is a problematic concept and it would take quite a backflip to change my current opinion

I don't mind Pulp, got Jarvis' book on my "to read" list... but i expected more. If this was a vinyl I'd guess it was side B before I heard something I liked - after that it was OK.

This is what I want from an album. 30-40 minutes of well written music. It's only not 5/5 cause some of the lyrics are a bit... um. Let's just say there was better to come from the band.
