This was very difficult to rate. At some points I wanted to give it a 5! And then I wanted to give it a 1! It has moments of both. So I'll compromise with a 3.

I like Hip Hop and have given other hip hop albums good ratings. But this is painful. I couldn't finish a single song. The beat, the background, everything is just hard to listen to. I'm surprised how much I hated this.

Not quite 5/5. Not every song is a classic. But still great.

I guess I'm a basic bitch, but I prefer Legend, the greatest hits album.

Exit Planet Dust

The Chemical Brothers

1/5

I don't know whether to give this a 1 or a 5. First, I really liked it. I was surprised at how enjoyable it was. But then, it was just the same thing again and again, and it began to tire me. Then, it was something different again and great. Then it was more and more repetition. It became like nails on a chalkboard. I tried so hard to like it. After the first track I wanted to give it a 5. But then it just wore me down to the point where it was just painful. 1.

This should have probably been a single album. The second half has some skippable songs. Would have been 5 but 4.

there are some all time classics on S&G some mid songs, an this very weird thing of two Jews from Queens singing "Silent Night" with the evening news in the background.

This is the 94th album I've ranked (I did a few out of order). It's the first one I couldn't get through the whole thing. It was painful to listen to. I fell bad ranking an album without listening to it in its entirety. That sort of defeats the purpose. But this was unlistenable.

WTF? Unlistenable. Just screaming.
