So you're just gonna eliminate Brockhampton and Thundercat like that without giving your opinions on them?

Brockhampton are overhyped and overrated to death :cm: both of their albums (especially the first one; unpopular opinion, I know) are good but nothing special like some of y'all make them out to be.

I enjoyed Thundercat's album but I didn't feel the need to revisit it, and I revisited most of the other HMs several times actually

I can't say you're wrong but I feel pretty much the same way about every hiphop release this year :cm: It's all overrated and overhyped. I still enjoyed both of Brockhampton's albums :-* And Thundercat's album had a ton of filler but it was still pretty good :-*

I think that was my main issue. I was kinda quivering @ the production at a few points but overall the album was a bit tedious and some tracks were redundant making the album unnecessarily long. :-*

Interesting album set :biggrin:

Julie Byrne - Not Even Happiness best one in the list, don't at me.

You're paying BROCKHAMPTON dust :fish2: but I love SYRE, Romaplasm, Yellow Days' album and The Kid :clap3:

Posted

Some decent albums in that batch. Poor Brockhampton. Their 3rd one just released last night too.

 

But I will agree that they're a bit overhyped. 

Posted

so many good albums in the hms! rest, drunk, guppy, saturation ii! 

Posted

I never heard any of these :dancehall:

Some great HMs: Oxbow, Thundercat, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Joywave, Brockhampton. And I'm glad to see Yellow Days getting some love :party: 

Saturation 2 slays though :biblio:

I was just going to say that your payola worked :dies:

 

Love the list, counted all the albums I enjoyed and there's 14 of them ddd; I'd say some of these are top 50-worthy. And then there's the ones that  were just :zzz: (Julien, Aldous and Julie).

The Julie(n) albums were v pretty :chick1: Party is a bit meh, but the strong points are really good. Though I can't deal with her becoming an almost completely different person in every other song (vocally speaking) :dies:
