Finally got to listen to Stay Trippy by Juicy J.... alot of songs sound like Rubba Band Business 1/2 songs.... I love it. Only because Rubba Band Business 2 is in my Top 5 favorite mixtapes of all time. Good Trap production.

Couple quick reviews since I don't have time for full reviews.
Pusha-T: My Name is My Name 1|King Push|5 - Love the Yeezy sample on this 2|Numbers on the Board|5 - Beat really grew on me 3|Sweet Serenade ft. Chris Brown|5 4|Hold On ft. Rick Ross|5 - Easily my fave song on the albume 5|Suicide ft. Ab Liva|4 6|40 Acres ft. Dream|5 7|No Regrets ft. Jeezy|3.5 8|Let Me Love ft. Kelly Rowland|5 9|Who I Am ft. 2 Chainz and Big Sean|3 - Easily my least favorite song 10|Nostelgia ft. Kendrick Lamar|5 11|Pain ft. Future|3.5 12|Snitch ft. Pharell|4 Total: 52/60 = 4.33/5 What I Liked - Pusha slayed every single song he did. His flow, his cadence and his lyrics are just superb. - Pusha is blessed by the house that Kanye built when it comes to production. The production is extremely hard but they all have lush places for you to land. - You can find yourself getting immersed in the album to the point of you being there. What I Did Not Like - The features of Big Sean, 2Chainz, Future, and Jeezy. They bring nothing to the album and frankly ruin an almost perfect product. Justin Timberlake: The 20/20 Experience PT.2 1|Gimme What I Don't Want to Know|4.5 2|True Blood| 1 3|Cabaret ft. Drake| 5 4|TKO| 3 5|Take Back the Night| 5 6|Murder ft. Jay-Z| 3.75 7|Drink You Away| 3 8|You Got it On| 4. 9|Amnesia| 4 10|Only When I Walk Away| 5 11|Not a Bad Thing| 3 Total: 41.25/55 = 3.75/5 What I Liked - Justin's voice is superb as always. He has this fantastic poppy voice that oozes with swagger. What I Did Not Like - Production was very subpar to the point of boredom. - Song lengths way too long on this one - Didnt feel cohesive. Lorde: Pure Heroin 1|Tennis Court|4.5 2|400 Lux|5 3|Royals|5 4|Ribs|4 5|Buzzcut Season|4 6|Team|5 7|Glory and Gore|5 8|Still Sane|3.5 9|White Teeth Teens|3.5 10|A World Alone|5 Total: 44.5/50 = 4.45/5 What I Liked - This chick is 16 from New Zeland who has the voice of a seasoned vet. She has this smokey old tone to it without feeling outdated. -Production is good, could have been a little better. -Very cohesive, you can play this album front to back and just be lost in the sounds. What I Did Not Like - Production could have been better. Some of the kick drums weren't as hard as they should of been and some of the piano wasn't as lush as it should have been.

Duuudddeeee...I don't like Future either, but he does his damn thing on Pain. Same with 2 Chainz and Big Sean. Both did well on Who I Am.

Future mumbles through the hook and it sounds terrible. 2Chainz and Big Sean bring nothing to the material Pusha is talking about and just doesn't fit.

I heard Pain like a year ago and Who I Am months ago. No hype then. Plus, how am I blinded by the hype and you're not when we give the album pretty much the same rating?

And if I was blinded by the hype, then I would like Numbers on the Board which has the worst fucking beat ever to be produced.

And I never said 2 Chainz and Big Sean were good on Who I Am. I said they managed not to ruin it and did "well". Future's hook on Pain is so fitting for the song too. You just hate them because of who they are. You see, 2 Chainz, Big Sean, or Future on a song and say "well, this track sucks." You don't bother seeing if they did ok on it.
