4.5 superb | Faraudo | September 6th 19 | I'm really surprised at how fucking good this album is. I really enjoy his past work,
but this is levels beyond anything he's done. Every song is concise and never overstays
its welcome. Instrumentation/beats, vocal melodies/delivery and everything else sounds
way more interesting; it never sounds "samey" like most of his previous material. Lyrics
are expectedly the "weaker" aspect on this record, but they are still way better than on
his last one. It feels like Post's coming of age record, and it could easily be my pop
AOTY.
Mindlessly fun and goes by like a breeze.

2.0 poor | MAN0 | September 6th 19 | All the awkward lyrics of B&B with none of the banging hooks. Post manages to make it a
chore to get through even a 2 1/2 minute track like Saint-Tropez through not only a lack of
anything new to say (well, I guess "Versace boxers on my dick" is new) but also leaving out
the interesting hooks, which drew even me to songs like 'rockstar' and 'Psycho'. The
production too seems far worse than before. Post's beats were never the most original, but
I could not name you a single memorable (in a good way; see 'Allergic' and 'Wow.') beat
from this whole album, as opposed to Post classics the likes of 'I Fall Apart', 'Paranoid'
and 'Better Now'. Then there's his voice. Maybe it's the cigarettes, maybe it's just me
having grown sick of him, but his voice sounds like pure audible sandpaper on some tracks,
the most egregious offender being the insufferable teen-poppy 'Allergic''s title yelps.
That, or he sounds more bored than I feel. Even on 'A Thousand Bad Times', a track that
seems to be some kind of an 'Over Now'-type catharsis, it feels like Post is actively
racing the beat for who can bore me more. If at this point I were forced to pick a high-
point on the album, I would probably have to go for the title track and 'On the Road' for
not being too bland, although both do manage to overstay their welcomes. People might tell
me to give it a few more listens, but I feel like I have had more than enough so far.

2.7 average | Erwann S. STAFF | July 17th 23 | Hollywood's Bleeding was Post Malone's way of telling everyone he really never was a rapper, but rather an R&B crooner that sings on top of trap beats. This one is full of pop hooks - shame that except for the obvious bangers, most of these indie pop songs are immediately forgotten as soon as the next one starts. Likewise, some rap-focused tunes aren't impacting, mostly because of how easy listening they are. The best 25 minutes could have made a super cool mainstream EP.

1.5 very poor | liberiangeneral | December 27th 19 | Absolutely disgusting. Half a point because from a technical standpoint, it's totally fine, but Post Malone is the most soulless, corporate, boomer targeting doofus whose stupid career is made to win dumb grammys and sell a bunch of stupid albums.rI didn't care for it.

3.0 good | Zeiu | September 15th 19 | If you look for reasons to not like it you'll find lots. It's not what I wanted from him at this
point but it's a very fun listen with the exception of 2-3 tracks. I wish he would focus on making
a cohesive album front to back. The first track had me ready for a ride but the second track shut
that thought down quick, still a fun song though. But I get it this album's going to be streamed
crazy amounts, nearly every song could be a hit. Hard to hate the album when I'm enjoyably
blasting it on repeat.

3.0 good | Gary STAFF | September 14th 19 | Pretty bad lyrical expressions and the half of the songs are bloody awful. But the album has some great hits, songs which I pretty much enjoyed, so altogether it was good and definitely worth the time to listen to
this. And Ozzy is still killing it!!

3.5 great | Doublez38 | September 10th 19 | On Hollywood's Bleeding, Post Malone has matured, improved its pen and improved its formula. The tracks Circle, Goodbyes, Saint Tropez, Take What You Want and Die For me are real bombs. However, like old demons haunting him, Post continues to perpetuate the same mistakes, that is, making titles far too generic in bad taste, such as the Allergic-A Thousand Bad Times sequence, or the Useless addition of Sunflower (which has no place here), without forgetting the roller coaster effect that we always find on his albums (between excellent, medium and bad). But in his defense, his evolution and this new album allows him to go one step further, and to continue to make his mark on the music of our time. I always prefer the first album because it's the basics installed by Post and then it was a step ahead of the others, but this one is much better than its second.

2.0 poor | Michael Stelzner | September 10th 19 | This is just awkward. It?s like a confused imitation of the worst elements of Foster the People mashed up with banal radio pop. It?s the telling album of an artist who was never truly interested in making Hip-Hop but isn?t as good at making Rock as he wants to be.

3.5 great | robbbbbbb1 | September 6th 19 | Feels like almost every song off of here could be on the charts. I'd say there are a few that are
grating (Saint-Tropez) and downright boring (Die for Me, On the Road) but everything else here is
excellent. As it's Post, expect some full on cheese too because there is a lot of it haha.
Highlights are: Enemies, Allergic, Take What You Want, I'm Gonna Be, Sunflower
