The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill
Lauryn Hill
ITS THE TIKTOK SOUND ("How can I explain myself?"). Generally enjoyed. Fun hip-hop and reggae exploration. Pioneering for the time, I'm sure, but probably not one I'll be putting on my playlists

The Seldom Seen Kid
Elbow
Better than I expected. Very much a 2010s sound, but I don't hate it. A soft indie sort of vibe, but track lengths were a little longer than I liked.

Funkadelic
Didnβt draw me in at all. Beginning was confusing and the rest okay. Just not my jam

The Stranger
Billy Joel
Absolutely wonderful. Don't know that I'm much of a Billy Joel fan, but he's certainly got a way with words. A few particular tracks stood out and the rest were generally fine.

The Fat Of The Land
The Prodigy
Awful everything. The worst of the 90s in its undiluted form. DNF after two songs.

The Grand Tour
George Jones
Pretty good. Spotify describes as a "hardcore Honkey-tonker" which I appreciate. Nothing super special, but he has a decent voice and nothing egregiously bad in his lyrics (but neither anything outrageously good).

Kind of a sleepy feeling. Everything is decent, but I'm also nodding off a bit.

Pretty okay. Another hardcore honkey tonker, but a bit of a snooze fest really.

Mama Said Knock You Out
LL Cool J
Surprisingly good. Didn't expect to like it, but LL Cool J got that 90s, but like, cool 90s flow.

American Gothic
David Ackles
Why is this so good? It's crazy how good this actually is. Idk about the 10 minute song about Montana though. This whole album is pretty odd
