1001 Albums Summary

First album reviewing out of my usual genre, so I don't have much to base it on. But this album was a pretty nice listen. I feel like it was inspired a lot during its era with crunchy rock beats and strong instrumentals, but the rhythm was similar to hip-hop. I don't have much else to say about it other than it was a really good album and would rate it about a 3.5-4. My few criticisms were that it was harder to relate to this style of hip-hop, and there were a few cringey moments that I'm not used to.

One of my first album reviews, so take it with a grain of salt. It may be that I was having a great day at the gym, but the album was amazing to listen to. The vocals and instrumentals were strong and unique, and I just had a great time listening to them. There were a few weird moments for my taste, but I just thought it was a great album overall.

I thought it was a solid album for rock. The basslines and guitar riffs were nice. But it just didn't speak out to me. It's a great album for the genre but it just isn't my thing.

I am a sucker for RnB and this album was great. Had very catchy choruses and great instrumentals. Would rate higher but could move me a bit more. But overall, it was a great album and I will likely listen to other albums by the Isley Brothers. Also, I thought it was crazy that Kendrick sampled this.
