~ Album Reviews 💿 ~

Ah, welcome to the page that is dedicated solely to album & EP 💿 reviews. LPs and EPs of various styles are evaluated in this section of The Musical Hype – we don’t discriminate. Album reviews are also available on the home page. More often than not, the album reviews on the site tend to follow a track-by-track format, commencing with an intro paragraph comprised of background information, and concluding paragraph that wraps things up. Also, GEMS – the best, highly recommended tracks – are selected at the end of each review. Each album also receives a star rating, on a scale of 0 – 5 (½ stars are used as well), that is visible at the beginning and ending of the review.

5 out of 5 stars = MASTERPIECE

4.5 out of 5 stars = NEAR MASTERPIECE

4 out of 5 stars = EXCELLENT

3.5 out of 5 stars = VERY GOOD

3 out of 5 stars = AVERAGE / GOOD

2.5 out of 5 stars = BELOW AVERAGE

2 out of 5 stars = MEDIOCRE

1.5 out of 5 stars, 1 out of 5 stars, 0.5 out of 5 stars, 0 out of 5 stars = BAD

It should not come as a surprise to see the analysis run north of, say, 1000 words. So, music enthusiasts everywhere – Musical Hypeians worldwide – get your fix of album reviews down below!!!

Migos, Culture | Album Review 💿

Migos do a sound job of sharing their ‘Culture’ with the world. ‘Culture’ is chocked full of hard-hitting, rhythmically-driven bangers.

Kehlani, SweetSexySavage | Album Review 💿

Up-and-coming Oakland R&B singer Kehlani delivers sensational vocals throughout her highly anticipated debut album, 'SweetSexySavage.'

Jacob Sartorius, The Last Text (EP) | Album Review 💿

On debut EP The Last Text, Jacob Sartorius embraces the bag of modern pop tricks but falls short of proving legitimacy as an artist.

Run the Jewels, Run the Jewels 3 | Album Review 💿

Rappers Killer Mike and El-P outdo themselves on their third collaborative album, 'Run the Jewels 3.'

The Flaming Lips, Oczy Mlody | Album Review 💿

The Flaming Lips return after more than a two-year hiatus with ‘Oczy Mlody,’ yet another intriguing, if weird, addition to their distinct discography.

The xx, I See You | Album Review 💿

The xx return with cool, calm, and collected third album, ‘I See You.’ Chemistry, production, and vocals are major selling points.

George Michael, Twenty Five | Album Review 💿

Twenty Five (Remastered) gives George Michael fans a respectable compilation of his greatest hits though it isn’t without omissions.

Gucci Mane, The Return of East Atlanta Santa | Album Review 💿

‘The Return of East Atlanta Santa’ marks the third album released by formerly incarcerated southern rapper, Gucci Mane.
