[ALBUM REVIEW #1]: {SCARIN THE HOES} by {JPEGMAFIA & DANNY BROWN}

When this album came out in early 2023 I originally couldn't listen past the first track, but I've learned to absolutely love it. The insane beats, the clever bars, and various mind melting moments makes this probably my favorite album that came out that year. In the opener Lean Beef Patty JPEGMAFIA comes in immediately dissing Elon Musk and saying his new blue checkmark policy is too expensive which is such an awesome way to start this album. Stabby synths and distorted bass everywhere makes it some candy-coated chaotic ear-candy which scratches my brain perfectly. Danny Brown's old timey cartoon mobster-like delivery definitely takes sometime to get used to, but once you do he becomes arguably the best part of the project. The bars on this album are all clever and amazing, though the main focus is probably the production from how loud it is haha. Peggy's rapping ability is as superb as ever as he delivers his best performances of his career in my opinion, it's like he out-dos himself on every new project he releases. This entire album was produced on a SP-404 sampler machine by JPEGMAFIA alone, which is an absolute feat for how absolutely insane this album's production is. In the subject of production, this album is absolutely top-notch, for me this album solidifies Peggy as one of the best rap producers in the world right now.

Favorite Tracks:

Lean Beef Patty, Garbage Pale Kids, Fentanyl Tester, Burfict!, Shut Yo Bitch Ass Up / Muddy Water, Kingdom Hearts Key, God Loves You, Run The Jewels

Least Favorite Tracks:

SCARIN THE HOES, Where Ya Get Ya Coke From?

[note: just because a song on the album is my favorite or least favorite doesnt mean i hate them!]

Ranking: 8/10

(this is my first time trying to make a comprehensive review, so this probably isnt that good of a review kek. but ill get better over time)
