Cruel Summer album review



In today’s blog I will be reviewing the G.O.O.D music compilation album Cruel Summer. First of all I’d like to state that I am a big fan of Kanye West’s production skills. This new album is not a Kanye West album. It is a compilation of all the G.O.O.D music artists plus more. This album is full of “goofy” punch lines and hot beats. The lyrics are decent, and offer some depth. But my favorite thing about this album is the production work. As a broadcasting student I can appreciate the time and effort put into the overall “sound” of this album. It offers hardcore rap, hip-hop, R&B, and reggae. I believe this album is worth buying if you like Kanye’s style. This is my opinion, everybody’s got one.
