Yeezus is one of if not the most underrated concept albums of all time. Highly suggest listening to Dissect Podcast seasonal analysis on the entire album. Breaks it down very in depth.
It's not that underrated imo alot of people rave about it. It's the "I swear I have obscure music taste" album for rap bros. It's really good but I think deathgrips just does Yeezus better than Yeezus it's just less accessable.
@@thdjskxkxdjwi13 death grips doesn't do Yeezus better than Yeezus I just overrated it. Death grips fans give them the mj treatment. Overrated by definition. They aren't the best rappers in the world. They aren't even top 5. I'm not going to overrate them sorry
@@thatguy1488 ON GP better than any song on Yeezus. Also Kanye isn't a top 5 RAPPER he has some of the most cringe bars. Plus not saying DG is better than kanye overall I still take Kanye. But Yeezus is not better than at least 3 deathgrips albums. Also The Money Store (the DG album that sounds the most likely Yeezus) came out before Yeezus.
Mmlp 2 is perfectly rated for me because there’s a lot of people that hate it and loves it so that balances out to just being a decent album which I think it is
Complete 🗑 never been more disappointed by an album like in hindsight recovery is 🗑 too honestly relapse is better than sslp and tes and a much much better album than anything since it. I ducking love relapse so much.
@@johnmichael734 anytime I see these comments I just laugh you all keep on saying relapse is good but when it dropped you all criticized it a lot for the accent. Mmlp2 is a good album for me in the end everyone has their own choice
@@uche4254 on god I didn’t hear relapse when it came out I really got into Eminem’s music when I started smoking weed in 9th grade and my friends played must be the ganja off relapse. When I listened to his whole discography bad meets evil was new. I thought relapse was his best album then. Now I might say mmlp but relapse still clears all the late stuff and holds up right there with mmlp for me. Ngl I did like recovery at first it took like 40 listens and I’m like wait this shit is ass lol.
I think it would be held better if it wasn’t titled MMLP2, yeah it has callbacks and of course Stan sequel, some skit continues but I think it could of been labeled anything else and then wouldn’t be compared to MMLP. I don’t think you could make a true sequel to that thing. I skip more songs than I play, but Bad Guy itself is incredible to me I almost hate it came out when it did becayse I truly believe you could place that as Em’s last song retirement etc. also the production on MMLP is consistent , 2 is just all over with classic Em Dre stuff, Rubin stuff and just nothing that seems cohesive. I think Em wanted to signal I’m back, Slims back but he only is for a bit. It’s a pretty okay run but it does nothing to argue the idea that Em still can’t come close on a complete project that even compares to the original trilogy of albums. Also say what you want the Kendrick song is just…why why go that route other than to subvert expectations which just didsapoints, still hoping we get a rappity rap Em/Kdot again to make up for it, though idk if I’d even be hyped for it now in 2023
You guys keep throwing too much hate at MMLP2! It’s not perfect, but it’s lightyears ahead of anything he’s dropped since then (kamikaze was ight). It has its corny moments, some questionable production choices, but it has a shitload of quality bars and more good beats than his newer projects.
You guy should understand the first mmlp is dark cos that’s how his life was 😐😐😐 things changed after that album mmlp2 is a second part of his life it was much brighter
Utopia is a good album, but there is just no denying astroworld had that instant hit feeling the second you’d put it on. It’s 17 tracks with arguably not a single miss. Astroworld is still yet to be topped on Travis discography
Astroworld is definitely topped by rodeo. Astroworld is great but rodeo is one of the best trap albums of all time. For me utopia is on par with Astro cuz I just loved the darkness and I think utopia has far better performances by Travis while I think for the most part astroworld gets carried by features except for songs like sicko mode, astrothunder, and no bystanders.
I always find it weird when people say, “this album has no misses,” but I feel like that can’t be true. Not everyone is going to agree that an album is skipless, so I don’t get why people spend their time commenting that. With that being said I think Yosemite, who what!, Houstonfornication and coffee bean are all skips for me so imo not a skipless album.
@@jamescunliffe1718 really, I think people only big up that song because it’s one of the few Travis Scott songs that are somewhat introspective but his performance is so low energy and emotion that it feels uninteresting after like the first minute. Like you can have songs with low key vibes but you actually need to sound like you’re trying, hell stop trying to be god and rip screw do a better job at that then coffee bean.
mmlp2 is the most mediocre album ems put out. Nearly every song concept on it he’s done before and twice as good. Its definitely not his worst but people like u that defend it for no reason are why its overrated
beyoncé take was crazy. the distant harmonies coming in in the little bridge section on cozy were gorgeous. production on the whole album is some of the best i’ve heard to date in general
My opinions on the albums in this video: Utopia: overrated right now, but thats just becaude of all of the hype arohnd it. When the hype dies down it will probably be well rated Yeezus: underrated. Its been getting mote love now, but still a little bit underrated. This is Ye's best solo albums from the 2010s. MMLP2: overhated and underrated. The amount of people I see hating on this album is weirdly high. Its not em's best work but it still has some good songs. Dont think it would get as much hate if someone held to a lower. standard dropped it. DLDT: well rated. This album is talked about a decent amount, but not too much. Which works because its a good album, but it's not incredible. Dawn FM: underrated, this is top 3 the weeknd. There are so many bangers on this album, yet no one seems to talk about it. Every song is good, and the great tracks work really well. AGaaC: I'm a little biased because I don't normally like gunna, and this is by far his worst project, but I think its very Overrated. It was just boring. Renaissance: This album isn't personally for me, I dont usually like Beyonce very much. But I'll say that this album is slightly underrated, I dont hear many non Beyonce fans talk about it. Overall, its not her best album, but its fun. Coloring Book: well rated, it's talked about quite a bit, but it deserves it. If I had ti pick I would say slightly underrated. People brush off chance, but I think he deserves another chance (heh) This album is very good. An Evening With Silk Sonic: Underrated. This is a really fun album. It's not a masterpiece, but not every album needs to be. Sometimes it can just be fun. And this album is really fun. Limbo: Underrated, this is another album that gets better when you just let it be fun. It's a really good album.
Utopia is rated correctly. I feel like theres an even amount of discourse where people either over sell the album and just straight hating. Its a great album. Its not the best of all time, its def not the worst. But overall, I think its rated well
Dawn FM is my favorite Weeknd album, listened to it alot but never on a bus ride. I feel like when Phantom Regret by Jim comes on we gonna be on an accident and I'm gonna die a slow death while Jim is talking 😂
‘suma luma dooma looma, you assuming i’m a human?’, ah yes, pinaccle songwriting from who is supposed to be the best lyricist in the game on the song crowning himself “rap god”.
@@jaycyclondo You picked a line he used as a reference to another song kiddo. That wasn't just a throw away line. Just shows you don't actually research the meaning behind lyrics
MMLP 2 has Rap God which I'm not crazy about the song itself but the technical ability is insane. Legacy which is an easy top 10 all time Em songs for me. Headlights is absolutely beautiful. The Monster is great idc what anyone says. Also a worthy sequel to one of the greatest hip hop songs of all all time in stan. It's the furthest thing from an overrated album, if anything it's criminally underrated.
Dawn FM is the most impressive pop album since doowops and hooligans. The only other person in the history of this planet that could make an album remotely close to Dawn fm and STILL could NOT replicate it is Michael Jackson's. The writing on dawn FM is some of the great this world has ever seen besides top teir hip-hop albums like Kendrick and mf doom
The point of MMLP is to represent what Eminem wants to say in what style he's into, it was never supposed to sound like the original. Because Eminem's music is for the most part not repetitive Y'all hate new eminem because he sounds different and ain't the same artist you admire, or you just mad about revival so you hate everything he put up since then + recovery and MMLP It's not one of his best imo, but you can't say it's overrated just because it's an eminem album you didn't like. Though I think The Monster is quite overrated And rap god was a bit overrated when it came out
Till this day i don't understand why these guys hate the MMLP2 so much and MTBMB they are decent albums and not bad like revival or other rap albums, I do kinda agree that MMLP2 is a bit better and slowly becoming a classic as far as closing eminems story with the Slim Shady person. MTBMB is eminem having fun and tapping in modern rap the album has no story but still is good probably his best ever since revival.
I’m going to have to disagree with Luca, this album is definitely not Travis’s worst studio album, that belongs to Birds, no disrespect to birds because it’s such an amazing album, but utopia is much more fascinating, unique, different, and brings a much better aesthetic that you can feel throughout the whole album. While I don’t know if I can say it’s better than Astroworld, I think it’s easily tied. It’s just such a different crazy beautiful album with a much more central focus on Travis and his rapping and producing abilities.
Yeezus is in the middle for me but I remember when the album came out when I was in 11th grade I could not stop listening to "Blood on the Leaves" a top 10 Kanye song for me.
MMLP2 is his most diverse sounding album. We have a stylish slice from everything he has done through his career there.(I honestly don't get the hate for the Rap-Rock influenced songs) Also his pen game was mindblowing it's his best album lyrically.
Man (or men) hugeeee respect for saying Limbo is underrated. It really is underrated maybe even aminé as a whole because many people still think he’s a one hit wonder with caroline…
MMLP2 is top 5 Em on a good day for me. Gets too much hate imo, I actually appreciate the Rick Rubin production on this over Revival 100%. Em’s last great album to me. Stronger Than I Was is one of his worst songs though I’ll admit that.
i freakin love MMLP2 lmao i dont put it in the same lane as the first, but i love every song on there. Even the not so great ones. Love the content though, my dudes 💪
I kinda agree with the Dawn Fm take but it falls behind Kissland, StarBoy, & MDM for me. Although my discography ranking for him switches like every day or week lol.
UTOPIA - still too early to say Yeezus - properly rated by the fanbase, underrated by others MMLP2 - a bit underrated and Em's best since Relapse DLDT - underrated + comfortably Drake's best since More Life (which is his most underrated) Dawn FM - properly rated a Gift and a Curse - properly rated Renaissance - haven't heard Coloring Book - underrated An Evening With Silk Sonic - properly rated Limbo - haven't heard
Do yall know how many people DO NOT like that album? It's very Underrated. Its has many fans and the critics love it, but DEHH they disdain it. The rap critic doesn't like it. A LOT of people don't like it
If MMLP2 had don't front, wicked ways and groundhog day instead of stronger than I was, the monster, and asshole, it would have been an 8 or 8.5 for me. Right now it's maybe a 7. If Em really wanted to have a female pop song on his album, then even "beautiful pain" would have been a much better choice than "the monster". And I think Rap God is actually a really good song. Great beat, chorus and bars from Em. It DOES NOT fit into the lyrical miracle category (even though it inspired a lot of it). And so far is such a fun song. Uncommon Fantano W
Mmlp2 is not overrated, i'd rather say it's underrated than overrated, i know so many people praise it but in my opinion it deserves even more praise. I would really want to try to convince y'all that it's really good and i want y'all to see why it is my favourite Eminem album, but i know it's really hard to change someone's opinion, like how no one will ever convince me that the album is bad and i will always defend it. Also, you're really using yoda voice as an argument to bring down the "rapping at a 100%" argument? Plus he did it on relapse on buffalo bill too, but you praise the shit out of the album and you never mentioned that it brings the rapping quality down or something. Also also "he's not saying much he's just rapping fast" have you paid attention to the lyrics at all? The concept of mmlp2 is to cover the topics he talked about on mmlp and to show how he feels about them now and how they have changed or not changed in 13 years, it's not suppposed to sound the same as the first one since it came out almost a decade and a half later, it has some nostalgia based songs, but it was mostly Eminem rapping about old topics in a new way, and that's why i liked it.
Its a really good album. Its funny cause i dident like it when it came out, but now i Think its his last really good album! Really enjoyable album aswell
@@younggrojas By not getting the acclaim or recognition it deserved. For instance, CLB had way more hype and a lot of songs on there overshadowed pretty much most of the songs on Dark Lane Demo Tapes which is bullshit cause CLB was not it and DLDT is way better than that
Utopia didn’t get criticised for lack of ‘bangers’ - it just doesn’t have much soul. There is too much going on that it forgets to really have any personality.. I rarely get through the whole project without getting fatigued at some stage
Thank you for saying this man. I see alot of praise for the album and i dont fully understand it. I get that the music is TECHNICALLY good, but I can’t connect with nearly any of the songs as a human being
@@wasabijones4571 I still don’t get that, the songs have a mostly chorus hook chorus hook bridge chorus structure and when they don’t they usually have a beat switch
@@Prodbyjah464 the whole project rubs me the wrong way to be honest - this thing had the attitude to be as hyped up as a MBDTF or a TBAP but it honestly fails to live up to anything near those projects - I don’t mind a good chunk of this but I really don’t think it’s that great. 19 tracks is also way too long. What happened to 12 solid tracks at most?
Travis Scott - Utopia: Hip-hop album of the year so far, but still slightly overrated. Kanye West - Yeezus: Overrated. Eminem - The Marshall Mathers LP 2: Underrated Drake - Dark Lane Demo Tapes: Underrated The Weeknd - Dawn FM: Overrated Gunna - A Gift & a Curse: Overrated Beyoncé - Renaissance: Overrated Chance the Rapper - Coloring Book: Overrated Silk Sonic - An Evening With Silk Sonic: Underrated
Bad takes on MMLP2. First, if the album had a different name, people wouldn't hate it as much, you hate it because of dumb expectations related to the title. Second, yes, it is a good album and the best Eminem album after the big three (SSLP, MMLP and TES). Eminem raps his ass off on this album, and I'm not talking about rapping fast, I'm talking about bars, rhyme schemes, flows, etc. You're nitpicking a bunch of shit about the album like, what's the problem with him doing a Yoda impression? And how exactly did it not age well? I never get this complaint about music. To me if something sounded good when I first heard it, it will still sound good if I revisit it later. Regardless, like I said, it's a good album and I will always defend it. Evil Twin best song btw.
Right off the bat, Utopia is 1000% a Yeezus clone. How can you pretend it isn't? Astroworld at least sounded unique. Theme was on point. Utopia is Travis doing an impression of other artists.
I don't think we need you guys need to talk about Beyoncé at this point. Just the absolute worst takes, Renaissance is so fire, the content is sexy and empowering. Like okay, the sexual content makes you uncomfortable, at least pretend it doesn't for y'alls reputation. because guess what? People be fucking. One of the most human things to experience is to have a sexual encounter with someone. They gon start adding your videos to YTKIDS. Not all music nerds are untouched prudes
@NFRPodcast It took me awhile to find your podcast amongst the comments. The albums that I have for you to checkout will blow you away however I don't give my recommendations unless people are really interested in possibly reviewing the albums. I can say you won't be disappointed & you'll have actual things to say on the albums song by song. So are you interested?
Been blasting Renaissance the last couple weeks…what an album! You guys gotta give it a go in the gym or in the car! So many great songs, impeccable production by Mike Dean, The Dream, Skrillex, Syd and so many others! Cozy, Alien Superstar, Cuff It, Energy into Break My Soul, Plastic off the Sofa, Virgos Groove, Heated, Summer Renaissance all instant classic summertime bangers!
Eminem's albums since 2002 are for his fans only. Em actually said that he retired after TES, but he decided to come back just because he loves the fans so much and didn't want to let them down. Hence, "Encore", which translates literally into "one more time"(which was a disaster). One of the things that people don't understand is that Eminem is making albums for his long-time hardcores at this point. He is not making albums to make new fans, or to please critics. If he wanted to make new fans, he would make another "Hi, My Name Is" for Gen-Z, with the language of Zoomers and with themes that appelas to them. He no longer has the content to another MMLP, but if he wanted to get high scores from professional critics, he would drop another SSLP or Relapse where he goes for dark, weird and creative themes and stories with incrediblly witty wordplay. But he doesn't. At this point, Em is dropping "onlyfans" type albums because he is pushing 50, and is too tired and too devoid of new content to drop albums that matter. Critics judge him by the standards of new artists that still have a lot to prove and a lot to say, when he's already said all that he had to say and is just having fun and being nostalgic at this point. Let Em himsels said recently to critics:"Stop reviewing my albums. They are for me, not for you."
Great vid (as always) some great albums for a part 2 could be: KOD - J. Cole Distant Relatives - Nas, Damian Marley Section.80 - Kendrick Lamar The Hybrid - Danny Brown Testing - A$AP Rocky ZUU - Denzel Curry Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik - OutKast
Yeezus is underrated? Bruh for real, is on many MANY lists of not only best albums of 2010s, also on best hip hop albums, and it's cited by popular artists like billie eilish and Rosalia as an inspiration in terms of production, saying it's underrated is denying to see the reality I think is overrated, there's a lot of industrial hip hop albums that deserves more discussion than filling the whole room only with Yeezus

mmlp2 got some heaters, i'd say its better than kamikaze, revival, music to be murdered by
Bro wdym he didnt mention the astro tragedy. He did on my eyes in that line "i replay them nights"
Dawn FM is the most impressive pop album since doowops and hooligans. The only other person in the history of this planet that could make an album remotely close to Dawn fm and STILL could NOT replicate it is Michael Jackson's. The writing on dawn FM is some of the great this world has ever seen besides top teir hip-hop albums like Kendrick and mf doom
are you actually saying dawn FM is better than Bad or thriller? no way
Mmlp2 should have been named rap god
The point of MMLP is to represent what Eminem wants to say in what style he's into, it was never supposed to sound like the original.
Because Eminem's music is for the most part not repetitive
Y'all hate new eminem because he sounds different and ain't the same artist you admire, or you just mad about revival so you hate everything he put up since then + recovery and MMLP
It's not one of his best imo, but you can't say it's overrated just because it's an eminem album you didn't like. Though I think The Monster is quite overrated
And rap god was a bit overrated when it came out
why can't they say it's overrated if they don't like it?
@@mhrshf6525 i dont care, they can say their opinion, i respect it, but i just disagree with it because i got a different opinion
@@ApocaMinecraft right okay, i was just confused when you said that they 'can't say it's overrated just because it's an eminem album you didn;t like'
Can’t believe you thought Encore is better than MMLP2
Mmmmmm both ehhh for Em
No way, encore is nowhere near MMLP2.
Nice take on Yeezus
Till this day i don't understand why these guys hate the MMLP2 so much and MTBMB they are decent albums and not bad like revival or other rap albums, I do kinda agree that MMLP2 is a bit better and slowly becoming a classic as far as closing eminems story with the Slim Shady person. MTBMB is eminem having fun and tapping in modern rap the album has no story but still is good probably his best ever since revival.
I’m going to have to disagree with Luca, this album is definitely not Travis’s worst studio album, that belongs to Birds, no disrespect to birds because it’s such an amazing album, but utopia is much more fascinating, unique, different, and brings a much better aesthetic that you can feel throughout the whole album. While I don’t know if I can say it’s better than Astroworld, I think it’s easily tied. It’s just such a different crazy beautiful album with a much more central focus on Travis and his rapping and producing abilities.
Yeezus is in the middle for me but I remember when the album came out when I was in 11th grade I could not stop listening to "Blood on the Leaves" a top 10 Kanye song for me.
W
So many great songs, hold my liquor and bound 2 are my favorite songs on the album BOTL is also great
MMLP2 is his most diverse sounding album. We have a stylish slice from everything he has done through his career there.(I honestly don't get the hate for the Rap-Rock influenced songs)
Also his pen game was mindblowing it's his best album lyrically.
Legacy is a top 10 em song off MMLP2
Yeezus and kissland are the two most ahead of their time albums ever made and they were both dropped the same year
Man (or men) hugeeee respect for saying Limbo is underrated. It really is underrated maybe even aminé as a whole because many people still think he’s a one hit wonder with caroline…
underrated and overhated is not the same
Yeezus is Ye's best work no debate imo
i like Yeezus and i can see why It could be his best, but its really arguable, It has 5 outstanding songs and 5 good songs
This comment should be illegal
5 good songs the other ones are mid
@@kol9495 I’d say 4
@@hahaharvey3068 These are in your opinion?
They had all these criticisms for MMLP2 but all that praise for Yeezus lmfao
Can't make this shit up
MMLP2 is my 2nd fav Eminem album. The Eminem Show always ll be no.1 for me.
MMLP2 is top 5 Em on a good day for me. Gets too much hate imo, I actually appreciate the Rick Rubin production on this over Revival 100%. Em’s last great album to me.
Stronger Than I Was is one of his worst songs though I’ll admit that.
Jesus loves you guys so much. God is with yall through all of your problems
i freakin love MMLP2 lmao
i dont put it in the same lane as the first, but i love every song on there. Even the not so great ones. Love the content though, my dudes 💪
Omg I agree with the Beyonce take the only song I like is America has a problem remix with Kendrick Lamar
Coming from an OG XO member, Dawn fm is top 3 on Abel’s catalog. My top 3 are After hours, kiss land, Dawn fm
Kiss Land his best album, it always gets slept on
@@donniepistone6347 kiss land is amazing it was at my number one spot until after hours dropped
@@donniepistone6347So many people say it’s his worst it’s actually insane
I kinda agree with the Dawn Fm take but it falls behind Kissland, StarBoy, & MDM for me. Although my discography ranking for him switches like every day or week lol.
UTOPIA - still too early to say
Yeezus - properly rated by the fanbase, underrated by others
MMLP2 - a bit underrated and Em's best since Relapse
DLDT - underrated + comfortably Drake's best since More Life (which is his most underrated)
Dawn FM - properly rated
a Gift and a Curse - properly rated
Renaissance - haven't heard
Coloring Book - underrated
An Evening With Silk Sonic - properly rated
Limbo - haven't heard
how is AGAAC properly rated? Like is it good or bad? Cause I hated it lol
@@theboi5584it’s overrated imo. Idk how people can even say that it’s better than business is business
@@Kanyewestbiggestfan123 I agree on BUSINESS IS BUSINESS being better.
@@Kanyewestbiggestfan123 agreed
Lu look mad goofy in the thumbnail lol
Is AT LONG LAST ASAP underrated?
Ill never understand they're hate for mmlp2, genuinely one of the most consistently good em albums
Their reason for saying Yeezus was underrated was their reason for saying MMLP2 overrated. Hmmmmmmm
Coloring book is fire. It sounds so beautiful
There should have been a "perfectly rated" option.
I love MMLP2
I hear leave the door open at a party and everyone started dancing it was a beautiful moment
Mmlp2 is class
Best channel on TH-cam🤩🤩
tripping on the mmlp2
Finally someone said it about Renaissance! Very Overrated.
you guys should talk about balloonerism by mac miller
All y'all niggas talk about is mac miller
Yeezus is underrated easily. Its a Masterpiece
not underrated fasho
Hell no
bro... the album is on top 10 of every best 2010s albums lists, is not underrated
Do yall know how many people DO NOT like that album? It's very Underrated. Its has many fans and the critics love it, but DEHH they disdain it. The rap critic doesn't like it. A LOT of people don't like it
Love the respect for Dawn FM. It's the most intriguing concept album for Abel to me.
If MMLP2 had don't front, wicked ways and groundhog day instead of stronger than I was, the monster, and asshole, it would have been an 8 or 8.5 for me. Right now it's maybe a 7.
If Em really wanted to have a female pop song on his album, then even "beautiful pain" would have been a much better choice than "the monster".
And I think Rap God is actually a really good song. Great beat, chorus and bars from Em. It DOES NOT fit into the lyrical miracle category (even though it inspired a lot of it).
And so far is such a fun song. Uncommon Fantano W
Dawn FM is so underrated
L take on MMLP2
Utopia is my favorite album from travis
Mmlp2 is not overrated, i'd rather say it's underrated than overrated, i know so many people praise it but in my opinion it deserves even more praise. I would really want to try to convince y'all that it's really good and i want y'all to see why it is my favourite Eminem album, but i know it's really hard to change someone's opinion, like how no one will ever convince me that the album is bad and i will always defend it.
Also, you're really using yoda voice as an argument to bring down the "rapping at a 100%" argument? Plus he did it on relapse on buffalo bill too, but you praise the shit out of the album and you never mentioned that it brings the rapping quality down or something.
Also also "he's not saying much he's just rapping fast" have you paid attention to the lyrics at all? The concept of mmlp2 is to cover the topics he talked about on mmlp and to show how he feels about them now and how they have changed or not changed in 13 years, it's not suppposed to sound the same as the first one since it came out almost a decade and a half later, it has some nostalgia based songs, but it was mostly Eminem rapping about old topics in a new way, and that's why i liked it.
Its a really good album. Its funny cause i dident like it when it came out, but now i Think its his last really good album! Really enjoyable album aswell
Kiss Land is The Weeknd’s best album but shoutout Dawn FM, its top3 imo
Glad to see Yeezus get the love it deserves
Yeezus was garb bruh

Dark lane demo tapes is a criminally underrated album. One of Drake's best in my opinion. Great vid again guys!
So many great songs on there!
how can a drake album be underrated
mannn that is such a great listen! "desires", "landed", "d4l", "demons", "war" are too underrated tracks!
@@younggrojas By not getting the acclaim or recognition it deserved. For instance, CLB had way more hype and a lot of songs on there overshadowed pretty much most of the songs on Dark Lane Demo Tapes which is bullshit cause CLB was not it and DLDT is way better than that
@@younggrojasa popular album can still be underrated
Utopia didn’t get criticised for lack of ‘bangers’ - it just doesn’t have much soul. There is too much going on that it forgets to really have any personality.. I rarely get through the whole project without getting fatigued at some stage
Ngl, I don’t get that statement. How is there a lot going on? Not tryna be a prick but I’m really confused with that statement
@@Prodbyjah464no sense of structure probably.
Thank you for saying this man. I see alot of praise for the album and i dont fully understand it. I get that the music is TECHNICALLY good, but I can’t connect with nearly any of the songs as a human being
@@wasabijones4571 I still don’t get that, the songs have a mostly chorus hook chorus hook bridge chorus structure and when they don’t they usually have a beat switch
@@Prodbyjah464 the whole project rubs me the wrong way to be honest - this thing had the attitude to be as hyped up as a MBDTF or a TBAP but it honestly fails to live up to anything near those projects - I don’t mind a good chunk of this but I really don’t think it’s that great. 19 tracks is also way too long. What happened to 12 solid tracks at most?
Is it a hot take to prefer Die Lit over Rodeo?
I like this idea of this series please continue 🙏🙏🙏
Travis Scott - Utopia: Hip-hop album of the year so far, but still slightly overrated.
Kanye West - Yeezus: Overrated.
Eminem - The Marshall Mathers LP 2: Underrated
Drake - Dark Lane Demo Tapes: Underrated
The Weeknd - Dawn FM: Overrated
Gunna - A Gift & a Curse: Overrated
Beyoncé - Renaissance: Overrated
Chance the Rapper - Coloring Book: Overrated
Silk Sonic - An Evening With Silk Sonic: Underrated
Bad takes on MMLP2. First, if the album had a different name, people wouldn't hate it as much, you hate it because of dumb expectations related to the title. Second, yes, it is a good album and the best Eminem album after the big three (SSLP, MMLP and TES). Eminem raps his ass off on this album, and I'm not talking about rapping fast, I'm talking about bars, rhyme schemes, flows, etc. You're nitpicking a bunch of shit about the album like, what's the problem with him doing a Yoda impression? And how exactly did it not age well? I never get this complaint about music. To me if something sounded good when I first heard it, it will still sound good if I revisit it later. Regardless, like I said, it's a good album and I will always defend it. Evil Twin best song btw.
So glad y’all said Dawn FM was underrated because to me this is one of my favorite albums to listen too
are you guys gonna post a circus maximus review
No stand out vocal performances on Renaissance? Give Plastic off the sofa and Virgo's groove another spin
Right off the bat, Utopia is 1000% a Yeezus clone. How can you pretend it isn't? Astroworld at least sounded unique. Theme was on point. Utopia is Travis doing an impression of other artists.
I don't think we need you guys need to talk about Beyoncé at this point. Just the absolute worst takes, Renaissance is so fire, the content is sexy and empowering. Like okay, the sexual content makes you uncomfortable, at least pretend it doesn't for y'alls reputation. because guess what? People be fucking. One of the most human things to experience is to have a sexual encounter with someone. They gon start adding your videos to YTKIDS. Not all music nerds are untouched prudes
keep of the work i love that you guys are yourselves ❤
Thank you❤️
@NFRPodcast It took me awhile to find your podcast amongst the comments. The albums that I have for you to checkout will blow you away however I don't give my recommendations unless people are really interested in possibly reviewing the albums. I can say you won't be disappointed & you'll have actual things to say on the albums song by song. So are you interested?
Been blasting Renaissance the last couple weeks…what an album! You guys gotta give it a go in the gym or in the car! So many great songs, impeccable production by Mike Dean, The Dream, Skrillex, Syd and so many others! Cozy, Alien Superstar, Cuff It, Energy into Break My Soul, Plastic off the Sofa, Virgos Groove, Heated, Summer Renaissance all instant classic summertime bangers!
Eminem's albums since 2002 are for his fans only. Em actually said that he retired after TES, but he decided to come back just because he loves the fans so much and didn't want to let them down. Hence, "Encore", which translates literally into "one more time"(which was a disaster). One of the things that people don't understand is that Eminem is making albums for his long-time hardcores at this point. He is not making albums to make new fans, or to please critics. If he wanted to make new fans, he would make another "Hi, My Name Is" for Gen-Z, with the language of Zoomers and with themes that appelas to them. He no longer has the content to another MMLP, but if he wanted to get high scores from professional critics, he would drop another SSLP or Relapse where he goes for dark, weird and creative themes and stories with incrediblly witty wordplay. But he doesn't. At this point, Em is dropping "onlyfans" type albums because he is pushing 50, and is too tired and too devoid of new content to drop albums that matter. Critics judge him by the standards of new artists that still have a lot to prove and a lot to say, when he's already said all that he had to say and is just having fun and being nostalgic at this point. Let Em himsels said recently to critics:"Stop reviewing my albums. They are for me, not for you."
Great vid (as always) some great albums for a part 2 could be:
KOD - J. Cole
Distant Relatives - Nas, Damian Marley
Section.80 - Kendrick Lamar
The Hybrid - Danny Brown
Testing - A$AP Rocky
ZUU - Denzel Curry
Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik - OutKast
Oh man KOD and testing are underrated af
@@pioterpioterpioterso true...
most j cole albums are underrated (apart from 4yeo and 2014 forest hill) and danny brown as a whole is underrated.
You a real one for adding Distant Relatives. Im sure 95% of the people in here have never heard that album

Y'all just can't leave Drake alone🤣

good work!
Yeezus is underrated? Bruh for real, is on many MANY lists of not only best albums of 2010s, also on best hip hop albums, and it's cited by popular artists like billie eilish and Rosalia as an inspiration in terms of production, saying it's underrated is denying to see the reality
I think is overrated, there's a lot of industrial hip hop albums that deserves more discussion than filling the whole room only with Yeezus
Thanks for throwing Limbo in here, that album has never gotten the credit it deserves
I disagree with the a gift and a curse take gunna dropped the album of the year and everything was on point
No way u aint cappin 😂
Dawn FM is underrated. If it got even a bit of good marketing it would've probably been better than After Hours. So many bangers
After Hours was a massive album. Even if Dawn got more promotion it still would have been in After Hour's shadow.
I just think people miss that eerie mysterious toxic sounding Weeknd. His music is still great tho
