Chesstown King's Reviews and Thoughts

 Drake and 21 Savage get extra disrespectful on this one lol. The album is decent as Drake and well mostly Drake take shots at various women like Ice Spice, Megan thee Stallion ,Serena Williams etc. The two rappers have good chemistry. "Rich Flex" is the perfect album opener. In fact I'd say the first half of this album is great. But the 2nd half is kinda meh. The subject matter just gets kind of tired. The production is decent tho. "Spin Bout U" is another banger. "Circo Loco" is easily one of my favorite tracks due to the Daft Punk sample. Overall I enjoy this album I just think it could of been a tad bit better. The only rap feature is Travis Scott on "Pussy and Millions". We could have used a couple more features I think.  Lyrics 22 Beats 21 Depth 21 Tilt 22 Verdict 86

Are of Pleasure continues down the path that her last album went. This time however the album is purely about sex and pleasure. Janelle's singing and rapping is very on point here. This is evident from the first song "Float" which is a major banger. There is a strong reggae sound on this album as well. The production is pretty good, but its not amazing like on previous works. "Lipstick Lover" and "Water Slide"are infectious singles as well. "Phenomenal" is a smooth song too. Overall this is a great album but its not quite on the same level as her previous works. Some of that is due to the fact the album is short...only 30 some minutes. Some of the songs are really short too. Complaints aside tho I liked most all the songs. Janelle continues to prove she's one of the best artists of the century. Lyrics 24 Beats 23 Depth 23 Tilt 23 Verdict 93
