Burn Posted August 1 Posted August 1 What are some albums that you feel are BLOATED? I'll start. Madonna - Rebel Heart I'm sure there's a good album to be found somewhere in there but it's just way, way too much. Kanye West - Donda Didn't need all the Pt. 2 tracks which made the album so long. Drake - Views I think this is where he started to prioritise quantity over quality. And all his albums since have made the same mistake. 3
UseYourIllusion2002 Posted August 1 Posted August 1 Born This Way, the 17 track version especially. But it's a good album.
CottageHore Posted August 1 Posted August 1 That new 500 track Taylor album comes to mind. And while I love Lana's LFL, the album would've been far better if it lost a couple songs 1 3

I'd honestly get rid of Yoü and I too, which i'm surprised hasn't had a resurgence like Bloody Mary and Judas. It sounds like a 2024 smash. I just think The Queen and The Edge of Glory being the last two songs would make a perfect ending.
bielneira Posted August 1 Posted August 1 90% of rap albums However, if we consider pop albums... THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT COWBOY CARTER Ocean Blvd The 20/20 Experience These are the first ones that come to mind

makeawish Posted August 1 Posted August 1 i'm sure it's heresy but SOS could stand an edit obvs TTPD, trim it down to 12 and ditch the entire anthology apart from maybe 2 or 3 for bonus tracks historically: songs in the key of life has far too many songs that could stand to be three minutes shorter, esp on disc 2 1
