Paul's Boutique

Beastie Boys

4/5

Uit mijn comfort-zone, maar ik vind de rock en hip-hop mix leuk klinken. De oudere klank vanuit de jaren '90 klinkt ook goed met hun stemmen. De eerste liedjes vond ik leuker, vervolgens werden het te vreemde teksten. De laatste korte nummers waren leuk om te luisteren, maar ze hadden niet veel replay-value. Op dit moment (track 13): 7-

Konnichiwa

Skepta

2/5

- Heel agressieve productie - Standaard uk-rap - ‘Crime Riddim’ en ‘It Ain’t Safe’ zijn bangers. - Niet veel nummers klinken uniek. - Pharrell feat. was mid.

To Pimp A Butterfly

Kendrick Lamar

5/5

De combinatie van jazz en hiphop is geweldig; het verhaal met uncle sam als symbool voor capitalisme en lucy is geniaal bedacht; en het gedicht in mortal man is zo mooi. Een van de beste albums ooit.

Club Classics Vol. One

Soul II Soul

2/5

‘African dance’ duurt wat lang en begint net zoals de rest van het album heel repetitief te worden. De productie was niet echt mijn stijl en ik vond de lyrics ook niet zo goed.

Planet Rock: The Album

Afrika Bambaataa

2/5

- De liedjes duren veel te lang. - Ik vind het leuk hoe je de liedjes kunt horen die dit album hebben gesampled. - I understand the significance of the album and the impact that it had, but its not my style.

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill

5/5

- Really love the first 3 tracks. - The concept of the album is incredible. - I love the skits in the classroom at the end of some songs. - Her voice is out of this world and she also raps well. - Overall its one of the best albums ever made.

Welcome to the Afterfuture

Mike Ladd

1/5

Some songs are just a pain to listen to. Didn’t like the production vocals and lyrics on this album. I’ve got to give it a harsh rating because this rating expresses how much I enjoyed the album afterall.

The Slim Shady LP

Eminem

4/5

I like this album and for anyone hating on this album: listen to the opening skit, my name is and role model again. He explains that anything he says isn’t what he or anyone should really think. In role model he explains how fucked up you get if you actually do those things.

Yeezus

Kanye West

5/5

The production is very weird but I kinda like it. I understand the hate tho because of the akward production and the aggressive rapping. However I like this aggressive delivery on New Slaves because it expresses his anger well.

Cypress Hill

3/5

Not my style, but the music still had quality.

The College Dropout

Kanye West

4/5

Amazing album

The Renaissance

Q-Tip

3/5

It sounded pretty basic to me. Didn’t have an outstanding song but the album was ok in my opinion.

Done By The Forces Of Nature

Jungle Brothers

2/5

I could vibe to the mucis and I liked some lyrics but it got too repetitive for me and after 15 minutes it became a bit boring.

GREY Area

Little Simz

4/5

I loved the vocal performance as well as the rap performance throughout the entire album. I especially loved 101 FM. The length of the album was a little on the short side but that worked out perfectly because I could listen to it on the way to school.

Run-D.M.C.

3/5

Loved to hear a classic old school hiphop album again. Great debut album and really set the standard for what they would become.

Smokers Delight

Nightmares On Wax

2/5

This is just background music that would play if someone puts you on hold. The album wasn’t a pain to get trough so im that is why I won’t give it a 1.

Car Wheels On A Gravel Road

Lucinda Williams

3/5

I like the vibe of the songs but I don’t really like the way she sings. That might just be because I don’t really like country music so i’m still giving it a 3.

...And Justice For All

Metallica

4/5

I like metal so this was an amazing album for me. Not much else to say.

McCartney

Paul McCartney

3/5

I usually am pretty versatile but this album didn’t have any outstanding songs for me.

White Ladder

David Gray

3/5

Figure 8

Elliott Smith

2/5

I wasn’t a fan of his voice never was, but the music was fine. RIP tho, I am not trying to hate on him. It just didn’t sound that good to me.

James Brown Live At The Apollo

James Brown

4/5

After a few days of mid albums, this was such a relieve. I liked the instrumentals and the way James Brown sings.

Loveless

My Bloody Valentine

3/5

I don’t like it as much as others do but still a 3.

Black Monk Time

The Monks

3/5

This is hard to rate for me because it used to be 18 tracks but now spotify only shows 3. The 3 songs where fine. I will give it a 3 just because I know there was some quality in the now deleted tracks.

Green River

Creedence Clearwater Revival

3/5

I had a good vibe listening to the album. Overall would give it a 3.

Vulgar Display Of Power

Pantera

4/5

I thought the agressive sound fit so well with the title of the album. Very good execution. There were no outstanding songs for me tho, so that takes it down a point. I want to give it a 3,5 but I will round it up to 4.

OK Computer

Radiohead

5/5

I really loved this album but not to the extend that some people do. It is a 4,5 for me but I will give it a 5 because of the impact it had on music and other people.

Deserter's Songs

Mercury Rev

2/5

I didn’t like it I don’t really know what else to say.

Elephant

The White Stripes
