VIEWS by Drake: 

It was good after a couple listens, but the first few listens gave me a scare and a cold sweat, I thought it was gonna be trash…

Best tracks: Weston Road Flows, Views, Hype, Redemption, Fire & Desire, Still Here, Feel no ways

Worst track: Faithful

Cleopatra by The Lumineers: 

Amazing.

Best Tracks: All of them, but my fav is Sleep on the Floor

The Colour in Anything by James Blake: 

Another really strong outing for my man James.

Best track: I need a Forest Fire (feat. Bon Iver) Becasue let’s be real, Bon Iver and James Blake = 

Worst track: I Hope My Life

Coloring Book by Chance the Rapper: 

A soulful look into the world Chance sees so clearly, deserves the praise it gets

Best track: Summer Friends, Blessings Reprise, Juke Jam, Same Drugs, All Night, All We Got

Worst track: I might be the only one not a huge fan of No Problem, but it isn’t a bad song by any means (***Editor’s note: Gunny is way off on this take, lol jk but srsly – alex***)

Lemonade by Beyoncé: 

Get outta here Bey with your empowered bull spit and BeyHive. (***Editor’s note: Almost fired Ian after the “No Problem” take, but he won back his job with this***)

Best Track: Forward only because Beyoncé doesn’t sing a single word and my man James Blake KILLS it, and that song with the Kendrick verse was dope

*SORRY, no YouTube link cuz Bey stinks

i like when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it by The 1975:

 Skin by Flume: 

Pretty good club music, not your typical ‘Chainsmokers’ dance music. The features work really well throughout, excited to see him at Lollapalooza tho

Best tracks: Never Gonna Be Like You, Say It, Smoke & Retribution, Tiny Cities

***DISCLAIMER: this is all strictly opinion based, if you disagree with what Gunny has to say, bash him in the comments or @ him tho @sunofagunn
