classic

This could have been a great album but the production value is terrible. What were they thinking? The melodies buried beneath the mix sound delightful but the $ clearly wasn't there.

Album Rating: 4.0

Thats what makes it special tbh

ha rip

just remembered how cool this album is

should jam again

Album Rating: 4.5

this album rips, well maybe not the whole album but a lot of it, and it really influenced me during my peak of musical production when I was like 15 lol so I like it a lot. it's mostly the yearning melodies he creates, like "suicide dream 2" jeez or "decisions" double jeez, and the way they're balanced out by a production environment that straddles softness/sparseness and aggression uncannily ("suicide dream 1," " ready for the world"). i've never really checked out his other stuff but the first song on the album that's a close-up on his face is really good, and even though the production is completely cleaned up it's good in the same way this is good. guy knows how to yearn

Album Rating: 4.5

im kind of unsure of what to think of this these days--a bit more do I get the sense that it's a guy pretending to be michael jackson or what-have-you over shitty production--but it was hugely influential to me in 2010 and tbh prob still fire. the first four tracks; the last two

the percussion on "ready for the world" is so good, the variable volume of the claps

Album Rating: 3.5

ready for the world is such a jam

Album Rating: 4.5

I just realized that the refrain of "can't see my own face" is just that of beyonce's "deja vu"

Album Rating: 3.5

this definitely grew off me over the years but ready for the world and my body are still really neat
