Didn't think i'd see bluebird on anyone's list Kudos to you for listing it, it easily made my top 10.

What happened? YSBH was very good, this is not? There's no personality, weak melodies, some spots sound like the same song. Is this Jhene Aiko influence?

 

 

Throwaway R&B, a new genre, fit for the SZAs & now Kehlani's of the world. A song of struggle, this kind of strikes me as Tumblr's answer to Reality Show (Jazmine Sullivan). Stop comparing this to Velvet Rope or A Seat At the Table.

 

 

The most boring album so far, why is 2017 R&B so disappointing... 

 

 

I used to not mind Ed Sheeran, he had decent songs. But idk what this is lol. It's one of the most obvious attempts at manufacturing a smash album, but it's not even enjoyable. While both Bruno Mars & Ed Sheeran were considered successful "pop boys" of the 10s to have less than decent albums, Bruno delivered a solid body work that holds up and doesn't make my ears bleed.

 

 

Katy never had good albums, but this is a new low for her.

 

 

Joanne's ugly stepsister lol. At least that had Beck & Josh Tillman-assisted bops. This doesn't, so.

 

 

I don't get why this was so bad to me, I enjoyed The White Album but this is one of their worst, if not THE worst. Maybe they can bounce back, maybe not. I'd rather they stop making music altogether. 

 

 

Why was this so acclaimed online? It was poor. Also Jens voice is annoying. Not for me.

not Katy, Miley, & Kehlani, 3 of my faves this year  

[World Eater]

Okay, you've spilled nothing but TEA on your worst of lists (although I enjoyed Jens Lekman's album ). Wish Pleasure and Utopia made it onto the main list tho

[Alessandra]

Not "Joanne's 'ugly stepsister'"

 

[clue]

Not SweetSexySavage on the worst of one of my most played 2017 albums

[Playa Playa]

Cute HMs as HMs are!

 

Also v excited for what Jae Stephens does next. 24K is so good; Jam City and R&B artists >>>

[SLIME]

That's funny u guys thought Carti was frontloaded, I thought it was the exact same consistency all the way through but maybe people just got tired. He's a legend btw

 

Miguel is my favorite album here, need to listen to Pretty Girls tho. Bank Account is amazing ... and Gucci Gang is like 2-3 tiers under amazing

[Changes]

Ah forgot about that Dave East album. The opening track is awesome tho. 

 

In my bank account

Maluma - Felices los 4 While a lot of people have been making the claim of Maluma being the male Shakira, I don't fully hear it yet too much. He's still relatively safe musically, but he has a nice voice & a great ear. The remix with legend Marc Anthony also gave him some plus points with me.

 

WTF?  He can barely sing live  

[Staryu]

I actually liked SZA, Kehlani and Katy (not the full albums but a few songs from each ) but agree about Miley + Ed 

[Lazuli]

Wish Pleasure, Utopia and This Old Dog made it  

Ruin the Friendship  

[Ewan Chaos]

Great alberm HMs! Gabriel, Miguel, & Feist I wish made it all the way a bit, but oh well!

[sumthintoxic82]

Find Me was good...

Ruin The Friendship is so

 

[Pedro]

Damn, Felices Los 4 is so catchy. I generally hate reggaeton but that one goes hard!

[Mark Rih]

Not SZA among the worst of the year

[theblackestday]

Not Even Happiness is v good. Tried my best to get into Pleasure but couldn't

Utopia deserved better

 

[Pink Matter]

HM (albums): GoldLink, Miguel, Bjork, Feist, and Gabriel put out nice projects  Glad Julie Byrne didn't make your albums list  

Haven't heard any of your HM (songs) so I guess that's good since your saving the best for later.

Nick remains the best of the new age pop boys (Zayn, Charlie, Shawn, etc,.).

kii  

[Same Ol' Mistakes]

Great HMs list! Miguel is an highlight.

[K$Ellie]

SZA on the worst album list  Kehlani didn't deserve to be there tho

Utopia should have made the list  CollXtion II getting a mention

They weren't THE WORST, but they weren't  as enjoyable as the HMs. 

 

Transparent (Amazon, S4)

Chewing Gum (E4, S2)

Crashing (HBO, S1)

 

 

 

 

[Lee!!]

Holy crap I totally forgot to watch Castlevania

[Mr Greenbird]

I enjoyed American Crime, Billions, Brockmire, Power, Playing House.

Transparent was okay-ish (Judith Light did hell of performance and loved her)

Underground and You're The Worst were pretty boring this year, will watch YTW's final season though..

I dropped SVU for good, but wonder it got improved over last season's one..

 

I didn't watch Dirk yet, will binge later when the season ends.

They'll be stretches I drop it, but then I'll be in the mood for it. And truthfully, it's nice to have opposed to all the heavily serialized dramas. You don't have to watch all the episodes, so you can relax + not panic. Benson has a nice arc atm. 

[Playa Playa]

American Crime & Underground  They will be appearing on my lists but also towards the bottom.

 

Here for the Brown Girls mention too. I hope the HBO adaption happens and the series becomes even greater. 

 

"War for the..." was a great conclusion to that trilogy too. I also watched Mommy Dead and Dearest after seeing you talk about it and was shocked.
