Kelela has an impeccable discography so I thought it be fun to have her two LPs battle it out track for track:

 

Frontline vs Washed Away

Waitin vs Happy Ending

Take Me Apart vs Let It Go

Enough vs On The Run

Jupiter vs Missed Call

Better vs Closure

LMK vs Contact

Truth or Dare vs Fooley

S.O.S. vs Holier

Blue Light vs Raven

Onanon vs Bruises

Turn To Dust vs Sorbet

Bluff vs Divorce

Altadena vs Enough For Love

Not doing this, not doing this, some of my happiest memories are listening to both of them, not doing this, okay bye

I prefer Raven as a whole album more tbh. Listened to this on the plane at night recently and it was literally a surreal experience

RAVEN WINS 

TMA for all except Contact & OTR. Raven was a snooze.

Love both but Take Me Apart wins easily. 

TMA

Raven wasn't the tea for me.

Raven isn’t even good to begin with. I dropped it after 3 listens. Meanwhile TMA is a flawless masterpiece that is aging beautifully 

Take Me Apart cleared

TMA clears.

Raven, although very good and would be considered magnum opuses for some artists, is her worst album. 

oh wow
