Chance the Rapper in tier list I’m not all that certain about this one, actually. I think this spot is appropriate, at least for now, but I’m not sure it’ll stay that way. There’s a bunch of stuff I like about it, I do like the general vibe, I want to like him. Just like,Continue reading “148: Chance the Rapper (B-)”

The Oh Hellos in tier list I really like this kind of stuff, there’s definitely a genre preference advantage coming into play here. I really quite liked them, I was surprised by how consistently good I felt they were, I was engaged and pleased the whole time I was listening. For sure nothing groundbreaking, butContinue reading “147: The Oh Hellos (A-)”

Post Malone in tier list not always my jam but plenty of songs I like, pretty solid. Kind of a textbook B, in that I definitely don’t think I’m ever going to be a fan of him, and I don’t see his music growing on me all that much in the future, but I doContinue reading “146: Post Malone (B)”

Unfortunately, I just don’t really likeContinue reading “145: Radiohead (C)”

Chris Brown in tier list this one is tricky for me, I feel he doesn’t quite fit anywhere, I feel like I have to justify why he ended up as my third F rank. Because the thing is, I don’t dislike the music. By and large, it’s fine, it’s decent. It’s not necessarily to myContinue reading “144: Chris Brown (F+)”

Childish Gambino in tier list kay, so this one is tough for me. I’m giving a B for now, but I really do feel like that’s a placeholder rank. I just don’t have the context (musical or cultural) to really listen to it on its own terms right now, and what I did listen toContinue reading “143: Childish Gambino (B→A-)”
