    A bit of a controversial one , frank oceans debut. I kind of tried to force myself to like it and there are 1 or 2 songs I do like but the majority of this album is just not my cup of tea at all ,actually regret buying it.

    I know he's r'n'b but that style of music isn't really what I'm into, I just bought it due to the hype. I suppose as far as R'NB albums go it is good ? I don't know I don't listen to them but Ye it's just not me.

    As you said, it's really just not to your taste, but I don't think it could ever reasonably be called a bad album.

    It's been almost universally acclaimed.

    My album of the year without a doubt.

    It would be akin to a rock fan buying illmatic or OBFCL and calling it crap. They aren't, but the rock fan just doesn't know how to appreciate them.

    Nostalgia.Ultra was brilliant too.

    Each to their own but its in my top 5 anyway. It was the album that properly got me into hip hop.

    For me Ja Rules with whatever album Livin It Up was on. Listen to it twice and remains the only ever cd ive thrown in the bin. Garbage so it was

    I agree with you I don't think it could be called a bad album , I wouldn't be surprised if it was the best R'NB album of the year.

    I'm just not into it and regret buying it is all.

    jaysus (when I think about the amount of money I wasted)
    there've been a few bad ones ,
    including lil kim , foxy brown , Us3,
    the luniz operation stakola
    Shaq
    Also personal opinion of course MC REN album Renincarnated
    was brutal , apart from the title track really
    Mase Harlem world
    NWA and the posse .
    Ying yang twins ..USA

    Thats just some of the muck I bought , i would put fun-hip hop albums like Kid n play and fresh prince , 2 live crew , MC hammer , above them

    Most late-'80s rap is quality, even the less serious stuff.

    Why? It was either a good album or it wasn't. It doesn't matter who wrote it, performed it or liked it.

    You either like it yourself or you don't.

    I personally liked a lot if Will Smith stuff back in the day.

    I also liked the Ja Rule album I bought at the time (also the one with living it up, pain is love I think).

    On the other hand I hated some if the critically acclaimed stuff I bought. Black Sunday by Cypress Hill and Hells Winter by Cage are two that stand out for me as bring acclaimed by others but just did nothing for me whatsoever.

    Will Smith has had some decent music, particularly Big Willie Style. It's not an album of substance that it is going to make you think. But if you take it for what it is, its decent.

    yeah I personally liked will smith , I def don't think he made music to make money , i think he done it for a hobby more so
    still , even now his old stuff is better than some of the Hip-pop nonsence we hear now-a-days
