gonna find the right time and listen tomorrow or sunday

this is a pretty big event for me with andre being tied as my fav rapper along with weezy

idk how i'ma start

maybe a nice red wine and cheese and through speakers

light some candles

Listening to that Andre ep that’s got to be connected some way especially on track 8. Want to say it’s a sombre feel it just evokes sadness. I get that feeling Andre through past grief let it all out on that particular track

I put this on and literally fell asleep on track 2

Great background music

Will do

Biggest disappointment in rap history. S*** is pretentious and isn't even trying to hide it, he said himself it is a good element for him being a 'baby with this new instrument', literally no one listens to music from someone who doesn't know the craft or genre, and that's what's happened here. He is WAYYYY out of his realm here with 17 minute tracks of nothing but improv. It's sad. Oh well. Danny Brown album is good.

cheese through speakers 😳

this is not rap history fam

Bro if you need the correct setting and time of day to 'enjoy' a record, you already know you're expecting to not like it and setting up a perfect scenario where it might be decent. It is bad. Objectively bad. He barely even actually playing the flute, more so humming most of the time, all of it is improv so no chord progressions, it's all over the place. Ambient Music doesn't mean just go in the booth with no talent on a flute and just do whatever comes to mind, he's an incredible song writer, incredible lyricist, even a good singer. But a good flute player he is not.

Yeah, because he 'subverted expectations'. For the past 20 years, even more, people having been waiting for a hip hop record. They expect a hip hop record. No one wanted or asked for Andre to make ambient flute music over 17 minute tracks for 90 mins and improv it. And the whole 'he's giving you what you need, not what you want' or the 'you don't know what you want until you get it' - we'll see how this record performs and we'll see what people really wanted.

With the hype behind Andre's solo debut album, after a 20 year wait, from one of, if not THE most renowned hip hop artist artistically (he's up there), I'll STILL be shocked if this goes Platinum, the quality of the record itself is utter bile, it sounds like if you gave a 10 year old a studio and sound engineer and a flute and told them to just do whatever you want. That's the level here. He's one of my favourite artists ever - it's hilarious seeing people pretend that they bump this.

BuyPoloDisorders is dope

dude same it was TRIPPY

sounds like you're the one out of his element on this one G

Go play this album to someone in real life, bump it in your car. Ain't nobody riding with you if that is bumping out the speaker. No one is ever gonna bump this unless they legit cannot sleep.

not all music is car bumping music bro, idk what to say, I'm listening to it rn at noon
also if you need other people's validation to enjoy music then you need to train your own taste

If this didn't have Andre 3000 name attached to it, you would LAUGH at someone listening to this.

dawg u should hear the s*** my roommates listen to literally harsh noise

Just listened to John Coltrane "A Love Supreme"

Now Danny Brown "Quaranta"

Next, 3 Stacks again

No bro. It's the general conseseus, that it's OBJECTIVELY one of the WORST records of the YEAR. Not even bad... But TERRIBLE. It ain't just me.

ok but again you are fully relying on other people's opinion here, which i don't need to you are not gonna convince me of s*** lmao.
Why are you fighting for some s*** you don't like so bad g, go grab some kleenex and play something you DO like

The point stands, if this had a random name attached to it, do you really think you would like this or even listen to it to begin with. You wouldn't unless you LOVE ambient music and its none of our top genres lets be honest.
