Cherry Bomb - Tyler the Creator
= Backstory = I had low expectations for this album going into it. The way Tyler and his fanbase talk about it makes it seem like it’s the most inconsistent and unreliable piece of music to ever be made. After listening to it I will admit it is weak in comparison to other projects in Tyler’s discography but the high points in the album are nothing short of great. = Backstory Over = All prejudice aside I really enjoyed this album. While it’s not nearly as sonically solidified as Tyler’s former or later work hearing this album is still good. Constantly shifting from Tyler’s older sound, more severe sound to a an incomplete version of his new sound. The dichotomy of both sounds keeps the album interesting throughout. Still only a handful of songs have made there way into my rotation and i find a lot of the songs to be underwhelming. Still an enjoyable listen especially when examined from the perspective of his latest releases favorite songs: - smuckers - f+cking young/perfect - okaga - deathcamp - find your wings
