DEHH Review.

Fantano review is surprising, especially he seemingly gives every other hip hop album a 6.

 

[bobbychalkers]

This is growing on me the more I listen to it. Its my go to car record right now. Even the songs I weren't too big on have grown on me like Los Awesome. Purge is still eh though.

 

[Charlie0108]

I love this album, really don't understand the amount of hate it seems to be getting. Some purely score based reviews would be:

Gangsta - 9/10
Los Awesome - 6/10
Collard Greens - 9/10
What They Want - 7/10
Hoover Street - 7/10
Studio - 7/10
Prescription - 8/10
Oxymoron - 8/10
The Purge - 6/10
Blind Threats - 8/10
Hell of a Night - 6/10
Break the Bank - 9/10
Man of the Year - 9/10
His and Her Friend - 5/10
The Grooveline Pt. 2 - 6/10
Fuck LA - 6/10
Yay Yay - 8/10

Overall a solid 8/10, need to listen to Gravy, Californication and Pusha Man some more before I can really judge them.

Conan Live Performance (Studio)

Sounds better than the studio version (pun intended)! And hell I didn't realize BJ the Kid looked like Obie Trice. Also the continued Purge hate is hilarious. That beat is dope and if anything Q is the one who ruins it with the lethargic flow toward the middle.

 

[CountBlack]

Druggies with hoes 3 coming in March, should have a video too.

 

[Gila]

I enjoyed it, some sick beats

He's not much of a lyricists though

 

[XANDER CAGE]

I definitely don't hate it, but it's nowhere near Habits & Contradictions for me. Considering the name is Oxymoron, I was expecting a sort of thematic followup to that LP, but in terms of running themes this album is pretty limp. Lots of bang bang gangsta shit, but a lot less introspection and raw unflinching nastiness to balance it out - unless that's the ~crazy juxtaposition~ the intros with the little girl are supposed to be, in which case *fart noise*

Los Awesome fucking bangs and I really like Man of the Year. Collard Greens is good too, but the rest of the album so far feels a bit messy. There's nothing as good as Sacrilegious or Hands on the Wheel here.

 

[Majestad]

This album is very disappointing. Only two legitimately great songs: Break the Bank and Prescription/Oxymoron.

SchoolboyQ is awful with hooks and his constant switch of flows/voices/and ad-libs (uh uh uh) gets on my nerves.

[Ken Masters]

Suga Free is easily the best part of the album

 

[GWX]

Q be killin' in dat iTunes Festival shit, damn!

 

[DesertEater]

What! didn't know he was getting this big this fast. He's coming to Denver day before St. Vincent. Can't decide which one to go to both are really good. Has anyone seen him live?

Saw him last night in Miami -- the venue had the a/c broken most of the show, so it was EXTREMELY hot with how packed it was.

Q kept apologizing for not being able to perform as well as he wanted to, due to the heat, but I still enjoyed for what it was.

His openers were dope, though, Vince Staples, Isaiah Rashad and Audio Push were all amazing.

 

[Ephemeris]

I should be getting my tickets right now at the Orlando show, if my damn ride would show

 

[CountBlack]

Man I WISH he could make it past the borders to come to Canada.

FUCK

 

[coldvein]

im not gonna front.

man of the year is a fucking diamond. that hook.

 

[toastyToast]

Over time I'm finding the prospect of playing this album less and less appealing. Back to HnC

 

[Ephemeris]

Got to see Q yesterday.

So glad he mixed his best cuts off H&C with the best of Oxy. Even a few where he was the feature.

Got to meet him at the end, got my cd signed, picture taken etc. Cool dude.
