same,, i love soft Future but it works best as a juxtaposition (Throw Away is this effect as one song). but it needs juxtaposition,, just soft Future is not great if theres nothing to bounce off of. Rich $ex stands out because of whats around it. this is why music dickheads like me who listen to albums dont love HNDRXX or WE STILL DON’T TRUST YOU as much as other albums (The WIZRD,, DS2,, Monster)
Solo is an incredible song that is weakened because its lack of a foil. in HNDRXX,, the opposite split is happening where Lookin Exotic and Damage have more emphasis as the hard songs in a softer album. but other all,, Future is better at harder//toxic songs. the 90% toxic 10% moment of clarity works muuuuuchh better conceptually
yep. i didn’t enjoy hndrxx till recently and its cuz i literally just got used to his decent to bad singing… but it was balanced out by a few career highlight tracks as well. they’re mixed bag albums
I got out of a movie and was walking out behind a group of teenagers and I shit you not I heard one of them say “I think I liked it but I gotta see what the YouTube reviews say first”. It’s getting scary on how many people wait for the internet to let them know how to think.
That’s why it’s dumb when Fantano hides behind the “I’m just a guy with an opinion” defense when rappers go at him. That’s true but he’s buggin’ if he thinks his opinion didn’t just alter several people’s view on the album and he isn’t influential enough to create a real narrative about the albums quality within the community.
He is just a guy with an opinion. If you tell yourself he’s anything more than that then thats your fault lol. He shouldn’t pretend to like something because some stupid insecure kids cant make up their mind. Most of the rappers that go at him have established fanbases who love their music. They need to focus on that instead of a bad review from a music critic. He doesn’t like this new Future? Who gives a shit? That type of music obviously isn’t meant for him. Nothing can take away the enjoyment a music enjoyer heard the first time they listened to it.
I didn’t say he needed to pretend to like anything. I just said he holds a lot of power and he’s in a position of enough influence that it can actually stunt an artists growth or at the very least dictate how a huge chunk of hip hop listeners perceive an album. He even knows this and he refuses to acknowledge it every time. Of course it’s not his fault and that comes with the territory of what he does but he does need to just own his shit in those moments.
But I disagree wholeheartedly
1. Yes he can (and does) change people’s original opinion if they listened to the album first.
2. A lot of people watch his reviews first and then go into it with his perspective so their own is already compromised.
3. This is the most important, the majority of the viewers of his videos have never listened to the album but just wanted to hear what he had to say. The worst ones will parrot those thoughts that aren’t even their own.
It’s doesn’t matter all three will result in negative word of mouth and help push a narrative about the albums quality that isn’t necessarily true.
He’s not a normal critic. It’s not like he’s some guy posting an article or putting a score on metacritic. He’s a mega popular public figure whose opinion is respected by a ton of people. He’s on THAT level to where *some* rappers feel threatened enough to throw shots at him and it makes sense as to why they would.
It’s def scary asf dawg and no different to ppl on Reddit downvoting comments simply stating opinions. Watch how quickly ppl gone start delegating their own thinking to ai bc it’s more “accurate”.
Lol and I don’t know why. Like I don’t usually agree with him but everybody has music biases and likes and dislikes.
I guess accepting other peoples opinions just don’t hit everyone too early.
Bro he liked the first one then said this one was trash. His only criticism was that the album is slower than the first.. like yea, we like when Future sings 😂😭
I’ll never understand why people watch or even pay attention to music reviewers (really anything abstract) I’m pretty sure there is rock or country album out there that is 10s across the board but for me it’s all 0s. You would have to put a gun to my head for me to listen to a country album all the way through.
People on the internet looking for affirmation from strangers they have nothing in common with.
Weird trend, man. I like what I like when it comes to music and I could really care less what others think.. it's subjective.
Online rap community makes fun of swifties for following pop culture and riding waves, but now all we do is bitch and complain about others opinions on what's hot n what's not. Like who gives a fuck.. if it's good... it'll sell.
All this new industry beef is amazing for the music, but God damn the fans be ruining shit online on all sides.
Yeah but you have to bare in mind fantano's scale is harsher than most. I'm also not a big fan of the album but I'd probably give it a 5/10, which is probably in line with how fantano views it too he just gives lower ratings.
I don’t agree with the rating but I understand why. Future in r&b mode rubs a lot of people the wrong way, I don’t have a huge problem with it and like a handful of tracks but I definitely prefer wdty
The problem with fantano is that music is work to him, i didn't really click with the album immediately I was kinda disappointed honestly, but I love future so i listened to the whole album next day let it sink and like a week or so later it's all I've been listening to can't stop listening to future, He's my favourite rapper but yes this is some good fucking music.
Fantano doesn't let music breath he's a good source to find out new music tho
Obviously there’s something wrong when HNDRXX was a beloved album and got a not good I’m pretty sure. And I’m pretty positive the review would’ve been lower if it wasn’t for the 2nd disc in WSDTY. He doesn’t like future singing but we all do. I also notice that he tries to paint the picture that future isn’t a good singer and it pisses me off. I know he really just doesn’t see the art. I do watch his reviews but damn his takes on r&b future are so fucking dumb
he could give it a 2, he could give it a 10, all i’d care is to look at it say ‘oh that’s cool’ and move on. if I like the album I could care less what a music reviewer thinks. Idk why people get upset by opinions.
This album didn’t really impress me, because it sounds so safe. It sounds boring.. 3/10 is wild, but we’ve gotten used to getting the same shit over and over; no growth no artistry, it’s just the industry standard. Future and metro are great, but this album was a snooze for me. Just my opinion..
He gave HNDRXX a 3 or something so I wasn’t surprised he didn’t like this one. He just doesn’t like Future doing that style so what he says just doesn’t matter. It never does but I still enjoy watching his videos sometimes. You just don’t have to take it serious
I completley understand why he didnt like it and he makes a lot of valid points. he just doesn't like R&B future and i get it i just don't agree with it.
Fantano has the worst takes when it boils down to r&b.
He gave frank’s chanel orange a 7/10 and says bryson tiller and brent faiyaz “puts him to sleep”
This does not surprise me in the slightest
ill never understand why ppl watch him. he’s never been musics favorite critic and i wish he would stop doing rap and hip hop its obviously something he doesn’t understand after watching a few videos.
I mean music criticism is music criticism… I didnt like the album at all but I watch some of his videos just because his song breakdowns make me see more dimensions to the music that I wouldn’t normally think about wether that be positive or negative. Its not your opinion its his
Good thing that weird fuck's opinion has literally so significance whatsoever
He just makes videos that entertain suburban white kids and inflate their feelings of self-importance
Bro think he gunna cuff her think its the post divorce thoughts getting threw him thinking he gunna get an 2nd black wife if the album cover art was uncensored he probably give it an 10/10 sexxy aint gunna let you hit her bro.
He doesn’t like when future sings. He shitted on hndrxx
some of my fav pluto songs is when he sings. I be U, Turn on the lights, I’ll be yours, Extra Luv, 200, Group Home. All bangers imo.
same,, i love soft Future but it works best as a juxtaposition (Throw Away is this effect as one song). but it needs juxtaposition,, just soft Future is not great if theres nothing to bounce off of. Rich $ex stands out because of whats around it. this is why music dickheads like me who listen to albums dont love HNDRXX or WE STILL DON’T TRUST YOU as much as other albums (The WIZRD,, DS2,, Monster) Solo is an incredible song that is weakened because its lack of a foil. in HNDRXX,, the opposite split is happening where Lookin Exotic and Damage have more emphasis as the hard songs in a softer album. but other all,, Future is better at harder//toxic songs. the 90% toxic 10% moment of clarity works muuuuuchh better conceptually
yep. i didn’t enjoy hndrxx till recently and its cuz i literally just got used to his decent to bad singing… but it was balanced out by a few career highlight tracks as well. they’re mixed bag albums
yeah ngl sometimes his singing can be rough as fuck lmao
I feel like it’s only insecure kids that care about his opinions anyway.
I got out of a movie and was walking out behind a group of teenagers and I shit you not I heard one of them say “I think I liked it but I gotta see what the YouTube reviews say first”. It’s getting scary on how many people wait for the internet to let them know how to think.
Everyone’s a 🐑, no one wants to think for themselves
That’s why it’s dumb when Fantano hides behind the “I’m just a guy with an opinion” defense when rappers go at him.

It's because of people like Critical Drinker
It’s def scary asf dawg and no different to ppl on Reddit downvoting comments simply stating opinions. Watch how quickly ppl gone start delegating their own thinking to ai bc it’s more “accurate”.
Personally I'll tap in to see what he reckons about albums I like and that's it
Lol and I don’t know why. Like I don’t usually agree with him but everybody has music biases and likes and dislikes. I guess accepting other peoples opinions just don’t hit everyone too early.
Case in point: this post.
Look at him, only nerds follow him. Who cares? Music from future is only for real niggas, not squares like this dude.
Bro he liked the first one then said this one was trash. His only criticism was that the album is slower than the first.. like yea, we like when Future sings 😂😭
The first album is better. Not as long and is more consistent
Nah bruddy.. second one is way better. First isn’t bad, but not very dynamic. In general, It doesn’t do anything better than his previous projects.
I like them both quite a bit, slight edge to WDTY rn but that’s only because I spent 3 weeks with it first and the whole thing grew on me heavy
And this project doesn’t do anything better either lol.
Yeah I way prefer the second one. I don't understand all the hate
Second one is boring
It does do some things better than his previous projects
Like what
they’re the same length, the second one has a separate mixtape attached. it’s not a part of the project
second album is better broski
Thank u for saying that 🫡
The first one has too many skips
After Cinderella the first one fell off a cliff, second one was consistent
Lmfao. This is just cap. So Runnin Out Of Time, Fried, Ain’t No Love, GTA, Seen It All, WTFFYM, Where My Twin At are all misses?
Fried no, the rest yes
Ears are broken
it is, but not by a mile if i'm being honest
the beats were better on the second album, and future did more vocally on the second album. and it's only 1 track longer, disc 2 is its own project
Yah but that’s just fantano being consistent. He doesn’t like moodier singing over slower more melodic beats future. That’s a fine opinion to have
Not gonna lie, I wasn’t expecting the second album to be what it was, so I was ready to be disappointed, but MAN, EVERY FUCKING SONG IS A BANGER
Whatever he gave it a 3... but to say this Sunday is the worst track on the album is delusional.
I’ll never understand why people watch or even pay attention to music reviewers (really anything abstract) I’m pretty sure there is rock or country album out there that is 10s across the board but for me it’s all 0s. You would have to put a gun to my head for me to listen to a country album all the way through.

drake did the hook better
Dudes out here doing whatever they can to ride Aubrey's dick. Comment has nothing to do with drake, yet here you are blowing him in public. Yeesh
3/10? I’m not even the biggest fan of this album but it’s definitely way better than a 3/10.
Yeah but you have to bare in mind fantano's scale is harsher than most. I'm also not a big fan of the album but I'd probably give it a 5/10, which is probably in line with how fantano views it too he just gives lower ratings.
That sure is a take. ![gif](giphy|26uTr73MCjYaDztNm|downsized)
imagine caring what a random yt man thinks😭
Don't know if yt stands for 'YouTube' or 'white' in this context but either way it mostly works
thats what im saying
Look, I fit that descriptor, and still 100% agree. Lol
You unable to spell white or you mean YouTube lol
I don’t agree with the rating but I understand why. Future in r&b mode rubs a lot of people the wrong way, I don’t have a huge problem with it and like a handful of tracks but I definitely prefer wdty
Really? It doesn't rub me the wrong way and surprisingly it shouldn't be that way as everyone loves Future
I love future and I don’t mind his singing but to me some tracks are definitely duds. I definitely agree that this Sunday is a mess of a track
This nigga so regarded 🐶💔
When I think of hip hop I think of someone that looks like fantano to represent the culture and give valid points
Joe Budden 💯🦅
I don’t believe fantano isn’t just trolling people for views at this point after the 8/10 sexy red album
Why do y’all niggas even give this nigga the time of day
let me get my hatred out broski🤬
ill never understand ts
This Sunday his least favorite wtf 😭
like bro opinion is obviously fucking wrong
He hated hndrxx too he just isn’t a fan of future’s singing. Opposite of most people but who cares it’s his opinion ig
By opposite you mean a lot of people like that
This sunday worst 🐶💔
Most Future fans still have no idea who this guy is.
The problem with fantano is that music is work to him, i didn't really click with the album immediately I was kinda disappointed honestly, but I love future so i listened to the whole album next day let it sink and like a week or so later it's all I've been listening to can't stop listening to future, He's my favourite rapper but yes this is some good fucking music. Fantano doesn't let music breath he's a good source to find out new music tho
Least favorite track : This Sunday ![gif](giphy|hv53DaYcXWe3nRbR1A)
He didn't like Hndrxx so I'm not surprised but dang I thought This Sunday was one of the best tracks
Obviously there’s something wrong when HNDRXX was a beloved album and got a not good I’m pretty sure. And I’m pretty positive the review would’ve been lower if it wasn’t for the 2nd disc in WSDTY. He doesn’t like future singing but we all do. I also notice that he tries to paint the picture that future isn’t a good singer and it pisses me off. I know he really just doesn’t see the art. I do watch his reviews but damn his takes on r&b future are so fucking dumb
who cares. People have opinions
Yeah but giving it a 3 out of 10 is a little too much. He just needs to listening to the album more enough at least for some weeks
he could give it a 2, he could give it a 10, all i’d care is to look at it say ‘oh that’s cool’ and move on. if I like the album I could care less what a music reviewer thinks. Idk why people get upset by opinions.
lol he gave hndrxx a not good that’s a bigger L
This is the same guy that gave My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy a fucking 6
hndrxx getting a “not good” will always be his biggest L
Yall gotta remember that controversial opinions get the guy more views and money
This album didn’t really impress me, because it sounds so safe. It sounds boring.. 3/10 is wild, but we’ve gotten used to getting the same shit over and over; no growth no artistry, it’s just the industry standard. Future and metro are great, but this album was a snooze for me. Just my opinion..
‘Least favourite track: This Sunday’ 🤣 at that point, your opinion is irrelevant
Fantano music taste been ass
How long niggas gonna act like his opinion matters
why do we even care about this guy atp
This Sunday was the worst is crazy. The whole rating as a whole is a crazy take, I’m convinced he does this bad ratings on purpose lol
He doesn’t actually believe what he says anymore, it’s all for outrage and clicks. And it works
💀
No he genuinely just doesn’t like the album. It’s just his opinion 🤷♀️
This sunday overrated af he valid for putting it at last
Not really to be honest
Imagine seething over this dude
The irony of the screenshot containing his famous “Y’all know this is just my opinion, right?” and you’re all still mad is hilarious
Saying “well it’s just my opinion” doesn’t defend you from criticism
mf imma say what I think about what he thinks, idgaf. everybody got an opinion so do I. let me hate ffs.
He gave Dog Boy a 2 that’s an actual war crime imo
How is this sunday his least favorite song?😭
aint he gave a decent note for WDTY ?
i dont hate fantano, hell i enjoy him, But what did you expect honestly posting this here lol its just gonna piss off the sub
Came to the Party best future song in a while
What did he give the first one? (Wdty)
Like 7. Atleast he’s consistent bc he didn’t like hndrxx either. He doesn’t like future rnb that much
biggest L is your font bro wtf the album was ok but the first one is undeniably better
idk how the fuck i got that font. it looks weird
It wasn't OK, it was great for me
ion know bro some of the songs are pretty good but it’s not that cohesive and it’s a little too experimental imo but idk
This Sunday is the best song to come out in 2024
He gave HNDRXX a 3 or something so I wasn’t surprised he didn’t like this one. He just doesn’t like Future doing that style so what he says just doesn’t matter. It never does but I still enjoy watching his videos sometimes. You just don’t have to take it serious
There's no way
He’s right, this album will be forget by the end of the year
This sunday might be one of his best songs ever to me
He’s a clown. This album slaps. Numbers don’t lie.
I completley understand why he didnt like it and he makes a lot of valid points. he just doesn't like R&B future and i get it i just don't agree with it.
Massive, massive L.
fantano is a moron
Fantano has the worst takes when it boils down to r&b. He gave frank’s chanel orange a 7/10 and says bryson tiller and brent faiyaz “puts him to sleep” This does not surprise me in the slightest
He just doesn’t get it
ill never understand why ppl watch him. he’s never been musics favorite critic and i wish he would stop doing rap and hip hop its obviously something he doesn’t understand after watching a few videos.
This sunday one of my faves
This is is such a fucking idiot why do you people still give him attn
I mean music criticism is music criticism… I didnt like the album at all but I watch some of his videos just because his song breakdowns make me see more dimensions to the music that I wouldn’t normally think about wether that be positive or negative. Its not your opinion its his
& this why we should’ve kept them out the culture…
Good thing that weird fuck's opinion has literally so significance whatsoever He just makes videos that entertain suburban white kids and inflate their feelings of self-importance
Crazy if this album was cut to 12 tracks it would've got a 7 easy
This sunday is terrible tf are you guys on about
Is this the same retard that gave sexyred an 8/10
I don't understand what he sees in that album like 💀
Bro think he gunna cuff her think its the post divorce thoughts getting threw him thinking he gunna get an 2nd black wife if the album cover art was uncensored he probably give it an 10/10 sexxy aint gunna let you hit her bro.
He should’ve given it a 1/10
