Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy REDUX REVIEW
Melon you can’t just spend the whole review telling people to listen to metal
What in the world was that CSH analogy? Will's best records were way before he was signed, and their 9/10 or 10/10 records. Do your homework Anthony
It’s a good album
I think this is one of their strongest albums to me, because a lot of the songs weren't too long, weren't too repetitive and had a more interesting hook + chorus. Just felt more listenable.
8/10
Not 1 word on highest buildings
I keep seeing things like he has shown "growth" and his message was so deep blah blah blah. Honestly, this album was 5/10 for me. When you think about a generational artist, you think about how others will perceive it in the future, songs like "alright", "mortal man", "don't kill my vibe", "duckworth" are the ones that future generations will look back on. I see absolutely none of those kinds of song on this album. I hate how these critics look at these albums in such a contextual way and never how it will influence.
Future Swag was ahead of its time
review sematarys new single
Been a meshuggah fan for a long time and agree with you on this new one....
Die Hard is my favorite
i though thus was the worst it wuld get
not quite as spectacular as TPaB, but still can’t stop spinning this.
I think if the bass was more present in And Justice for all, it might have been either their best or second best
Denzel has always sucked. Lil Pump is a better rapper than him because he at least made a good song on accident. Kodak Black is also way better. He bodied the “greatest rapper of all time” on his own song.
Most the comments are “I like the guy but his album was trash” and it’s insane to me. WHY do u like the guy? Do u know him? Coz he looks “cute”, and is so boring that u mistake it for being chill?? I guarantee if he looked like fantano( no offense) y’all wouldn’t be saying that. It’s insane to like someone you don’t even know, based only on how he looks, and not his skill or anything else.
oh baby pale ghost is one of my favorite songs ever.
why do all good people have to die young yet we have so many shitty people still alive and still being pieces of shit
È semplicemente viscerale e sporco, per alcuni aspetti mi ricordano i primi coalesce ma anche gli Unsane, un suono compatto senza via di fuga. Un ottimo disco
I thought that the first album was pretty decent for a pop punk album. Second album is confusing. A mix of rock/rap in a lot of songs.
ur so good at identifying his influences. but not so good at how this record is gonna influence.
This is a momentary time, fantano finally talking about EE 🤩
I think we need to establish the difference between perfect, and a 10/10 album. A 10/10 album can be every album which is either one of your favorites, or an album you love so so much with all your heart that you will love forever and ever. A perfect album for me however, is an album that is perfect in any way you look at it. Which mainly means that I need to love every single song or second of that album, the flow of the album must be very smooth up until perfection, the lyrics has to be great, the music needs to be mind-boggling amazing, and of course, like Anthony said, it needs to be very relistenable. An album like that is perfect imo, and even albums I worship with all my heart, which I will still give a 10, I wouldn't necessarily call perfect, but that doesn't mean I don't love them in a level of a 10. PERFECT albums however, are rare. But they exist
i've watched you for years at this point yet i still get a bit shook with how unbiased your critiques are at the beginning of every video lmao
It’s playboi Carti but it isn’t
So basicly we stil dont know if he is gay or not
this album is absolute gold now
I like it about 0.5% more each time I listen to it
I love her, she’s such a vibe
I'm so confused by the response to this record, I found this to be overall the weakest link in their discography, I loved A Fever Dream and i prefer Re-Animator to this, yet everyone's saying that this matches up to Get To Heaven.
Tried Everything Everything and I am obsessed. After listening to their previous albums, Raw Data Feel feels like an improvement in every way. I'm obsessed. Thanks for the articulate review.
As usual, I couldn’t disagree more with your opinion on Arcade Fire albums. To me this was a real return to form for them after the abysmal Everything Now, and I had it on repeat for days. I hadn’t been that into anything since The Suburbs, even though that’s a lot better and so is Reflektor because the lyrics on those albums are smarter. I know a lot of people don’t like the lyrics “I unsubscribe,” but idk, they really hit home for me and I’m wondering if people are just not getting it. I’m honestly surprised that you keep listening to and reviewing Arcade Fire albums at this point.
Fuuuuk even the review is unbearable
Fantano wears T-Shirts under his T-Shirts
Very surprised you said 7. As someone who regularly binges your videos your commentary was sounding very 'strong eight'ish to me
Best Strokes album ever.
... Season 4
She doesn’t even say it’s the best anymore she says it’s the most popular
N95, what a trash song lmao
Please review the new R Plus album. It's called WeDisappear
I don’t get the *skrrrrrrrt* bits
2010 was just the 'light 6' year for melon
Jaden would be nothing without the fame his parents have. He isn't talented, copies everything he does from actual artists and he really seems full of himself to a point where he is simply delusional
Fantano predicted the Morbius hate by disliking Mobius
"... and songs that make me wanna go to sleep". Finally He's reviewing sleepy music.
And you're trying to steal Glassjaws style of thick black glasses and shaved head. They influence you and you don't even realize it. The lyrics are amazing are Worship.
Worship and tribute is one of the best albums I've ever heard. You are a tool for thinking that album is Meh, you will never do anything in your life that artistic. Dude your opinion is way off on Material Control too. Opinions are like assholes. Everyone's got em and yours are what comes out of assholes. Shit. Cheers.
