It’s on Spotify but I guess the erroneous iTunes date caused a glitch; it’s up on iTunes for $12.99 and Apple Music but only the pre-release tracks are available.

This might be my favorite album released so far this year, and manages to be a step up from the already strong debut. Better Now is definitely a smash waiting.

He was a trainwreck again at Coachella. Why is this dirty culture vulture still a thing?? I am still mad that Iggy, who made bops, is gone, while the unclean thing is still roaming the earth.
Edit: Listening to clips, at least it all sounds the same/cohesive. It reminds me of listening to Staind or slow Limp Bizkit songs. Everlast did it way better though and Bubba Sparxxx, also a hick, had Timbaland at his prime producing some country/hip-hop, inspired productions. This is stuff I expect Gravey or Dickblender to listen to. Of the 15 ppl I camped at Coachella with, it was telling that the only people that went to see Post Maloney were the 23 year old shirtless bros who were popping tabs and wasted by 11 AM and kept saying things like #Litty and #deadass.

I mean, it's a... smooth listen? I was shocked to look at the credits and see that this whole thing wasn't produced by the same people. It really sounds like it is. He's beyond one note, who in the hell told Post Malone in 2018 that he could pull off an 18 track album? He's an EP artist at best.
This was made for the streaming masses though, it literally plays like one long ass song with no moments (outside of maybe boredom) that jump out and make you skip to the next track. And if you like one Post Malone song, you'll probably love this in it's entirety. But I probably won't revisit this, he just doesn't do it for me.
Seeing J. Cole smash this past week is gonna make seeing this smash slightly more bearable I guess.

I'm halfway through this now and I have heard nothing I don't like.

Took him a little while to dethrone Queen Janelle, but...not surprised. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This album hella catchy from start to finish, it's kind of a good thing he didn't work with multiple producers on the album.

Some (maybe all?) iHeartMedia CHR stations are playling a different track from the album every hour.

"Spoil My Night" seems like a mega hit waiting in the wings. So freaking catchy. Overall I wish he experimented with some more styles on this, but at least its pretty cohesive and flows well together. It really feels like he's destined to be the next biggest thing, maybe even taking Drake's throne eventually.

I hope there's an announement for the next single cause i can't chose. Almost all songs are damn good except candy paint.

I think "Better Now" and "Ball For Me" are the best choices and maybe "Stay" later on.

The album could heavily benefit if some tracks were cut off but overall I liked it. His talent truly shines in the more acoustic, melody-driven songs like the future #1 hit Stay, Better Now and Otherside which are my favorites. His voice is pure ear candy and I really like how he's blending a bunch of different genres into his music because he creates something unique. I was disappointed when he said that he uses a lot of autotune in an interview but I checked out some of his acoustic performances and he sounds exactly the same as in the studio versions. The only thing that keeps me from full-time stanning for him is the fact that most of the time he sounds like shit live. It's like he's not even trying and just randomly screams some words in between the 'ay's so hopefully he'll do something to improve on that department.

His next album is probably gonna be country That's what I'm hoping too. It'll be a natural progression and a true reverse Taylor Swift experience.

I'm 6 songs in and I'm liking this album WAY more than I expected to. Haven't always been his biggest fan but he went really hard on this.

Better Now should be the next single followed by Ball For Me. I could see both going #1 tbh.
