174947, music is such a subjective thing man Posted by Tiger Woods, Tue Apr-18-17 02:11 PM
I definitely did not get the overwhelming hype behind Butterfly. I felt it was trying too hard to be a big bold statement without ever getting solid enough footing to make the statement in the first place. But I'm aware I'm in the minority - that's probably the most praised mainstream rap album since Dark Fantasy or Good Kid...
So it's weird.
Sometimes though you'll hear something that obviously isn't great but everyone appears too chickenshit to say so. Check out the reviews of Life of Pablo for example. DAMN is not one of those cases.
