One thing that I will NEVER understand in the online music community is the general consensus around James Blake albums post-2016
The guy has never dropped anything worse than an 8/10
not a bad effort from him, I think as a full body of work playing robots was better but this still has some high highs
Monica Martin is one f the best sounding and looking people to ever make music love when they work together
Doesn't Just Happen grew on me, I still wish he had an actual rapper like Rocky or something on the track but I can sit through it now, the James part on the second half is heavenly
All his collabs with Monica Martin are beautiful, wish he had a verse on Go Easy Kid.
Didn't Come To Argue is really good, love the way her vocals are chopped on the second half, it's super addictive
Make Something Up is the most interesting track for me lyrically, it's just lacking some punch to it to become one of the best on here.
I'm very happy with this album, hoping Sampha drops this year too.
I've been running back the 1-2 punch of Make Something Up & Didn't Come To Argue all week man
I Had A Dream She Took My Hand is probably the corniest s*** he's ever written
Man WHAT
That’s arguably the most beautiful record he’s ever written
I was tripping I completely disagree with myself after several more listens lmao
This album’s beautiful
