Dec 24, 2020I did not like Asap's TESTING at all the first couple of listens. Especially after how great ALLA was. I listened to it again recently and it clicked. So if its someone i generally like, I may give it more of a chance later on, but if I were trying out a new person and they didn't grab me its 1 and done.

DelejaynDAMN. That’s a horrible way to listen to music. 😂
Zoomers man
Dec 24, 2020depends on the artist. somebody like uzi or lil baby isnt gonna have a lot to pull from after multiple listens so one listen is enough.
Dec 24, 2020If I'm already a fan of the artist or if the album is particularly hyped I'll give it a few spins. Otherwise just one these days. But I'm never delusional enough to think my takes after 1 listen are gonna be as valid as someone that spent time with the album
Dec 24, 2020prob another 2 especially if its a concept album.
also depends on how much respect and appreciation I have for the artist
Dec 24, 2020DelejaynYou hated blonde because it dropped in the Summer? See this is where I get lost. I understand thinking something is mid or just ok and then loving it. But you hated blonde and then a year later you loved it? I don’t know how you can listen to blonde and think it’s bad. Even if you don’t love it, its just hard for me to listen to good music snd think it’s bad based on a season.
i simply wanted something more uptempo. obviously Frank Ocean and any artist is allowed to make whatever
they desire but it just affected how i related with it- Dec 24, 2020
2nd listen of naughties rnb classics go
Dec 24, 2020Depends on how much I like the artist
Dec 24, 2020Depends, if I’m like halfway through and nothing is hitting I’ll probably stop listening there but I’ll revisit it later if ppl keep hyping it up.

There’s also times where I can feel the magic but it hasn’t fully clicked so I keep listening
Dec 24, 2020I give it 3 solid listens, each on a different day and setting. If it doesn’t stick, I drop it.
Dec 24, 2020Jim HalpertArtists I enjoy don’t make bad albums tho.

Sometimes i love an album after one listen then it has no staying power
Dec 24, 2020Future always been a goat but he's a grower but lately I've been giving his s*** a one spin and done. Didn't even listen to that uzi joint jawn.
Dec 24, 2020I just listen until I have no desire to listen
Usually albums that grow on me I don’t like them but still have a desire to keep giving it a try and catching onto it or I hear something from it later and give it another go and it connects

UndisclosedIf it don’t hit on first listen, I’m giving it another spin a week later, and if it still doesn’t hit, then it doesn’t hit. I’ll probably try again down the road, but 2 full listens is where I stop.
Dec 24, 2020A lot of my favorite albums were meh first listens
It’s really case-by-case. Some bad albums get multiple chances, others don’t even get a full spin
Dec 24, 2020Gave MOTM3 about 6 tries and it was mid each time
Dec 24, 2020If I don’t like anything about it by the 5th song I’m turning that s*** off.
Depending on the artist might try it again later and see if it clicks.
Dec 24, 2020if it doesn't work on a late night drive then I give up
sorry Blonde
Dec 24, 2020i can tell if something is just bad or worthy of further investigation pretty immediately
Dec 24, 2020I had the same revelation in op with EA
case by case basis
