What's wrong with it? Or is it bad because he thinks it sucks?
A review isn't terrible because it doesn't agree with your beliefs. But then again, ThisIsNeogaf.gif
can someone pleeease remove the vocals? this beat deserves to be heard by itself. fuuck

just heard 100 bottles last night.. nice party track
The album isn't mind blowing but it isn't a 4. And watching all the TND reviews, it is obvious that he likes experimental hip hop more than traditional hip hop. Ex. Danny Brown, Death Grips, A$AP Rocky.
No shit. The review was terrible because he spent the majority bashing Nas's catalogue.
djing in here tonight, some hip hop but im going for a wide range of jazz hoppy stuff as well

Hit up one of those yt beat recreator experts? haha
I need some of those smilies Esch be using...
Edit:
personally i woulda hit him with a
World tour was a pretty good song
Also that was the only time Gaga seemed normal in a music video.

I'm not seeing the awfulness here. He spends half the review (~4:00m) talking about Nas' other albums and the other half talking about the album's pros/cons. He articulated himself well and gave his opinion on Nas and LiG all in one vid. The review is fine.
Nas is about to be on Colbert btw

some hipster prick, who cares. It's getting positive reviews from sources that matter.
GTFO. Terrible review. Look at the likes / dislikes and top comments. Everyone knows this review is bullshit.

His video gets more views this way. Nobody would care if his hipster ass said the album was average.
he has some good reviews from time to time and is a pretty reasonable dude. no need to go full defense force
Dudes done nothing but defend Nas for like the past 2 weeks. Shit son.
To be fair, this is the first Nas album in like 10 years to be excited about.

2 weeks is a very huge understatement.

goddammit, i hate that i always forget this one in nas album discussions, it's such a worthy contender to
stillmatic freestyle + ether > takeover + supa ugly, this is empirically true. even having more in carmen didn't push the latter over.
i loved this exchange.
this is the definition of a reckless post

Pretty sure the positive has outweighed the negative in this thread. You cannot apply the Nas cycle here, as it doesnt apply to everyone, where in the past it did.

I liked Hip Hop is Dead a lot actually... He makes decent albums... But that's about it right now..
Yeah, I did not like Hip Hop Was Dead much at all. I have been disappointed since Stillmatic. I just find Life Is Good to be above average at worst, and pretty damn good at best.

If street disciple had been condensed into one Cd made up only of the good songs I would rank it pretty high too but stillmatic would still be better.

I liked Life Is Good, couple more listens until I can properly rank it. Gonna listen to Stillmatic a couple times again too.
The Yela/KRIT and Schooboy tracks on that Cyhi are nice. Nothing amazing, but nice. Going to listen to the rest of the tape tomorrow.
EDIT:
Damn, just heard Swimming Pools through some decent speakers. You can tell Dre put in some work making those drums sound good.
Double Edit: HiRes' roundups are now in the Op. Front and center! Hopefully some fools take notice.

The hate being directed at The Needle Drop's Life Is Good review is embarrassing.

fucking Batman spoilers all over Gaf. The Joker has invaded 
I swear it's like every album Rozay makes, he just goes harder and harder. I hope this one will be as hard as FUCK and I also hope that Meek Mills & Wale are nowhere near it. I know I'm reaching here when I say that but damn if they don't suck. The best part about Tupac Back is the chorus (Rozay) and the best part of Ima Boss is Rozay's verse
got so many shades they thought I had a lazy eye UHH

Ughh. The thing is, I think hopsin can actually spit and has some dope lines/tracks. But his whole image and most of his discography annoys me. Not to mention that Slizz guy on his label is about the worst thing to ever touch a mic.
Also, I am leaving Gaf until after the midnight premiere of Batman. I was lucky I didnt get spoiled considering how much I read on this forum. Fuck the childish idiots posting spoilers to ruin the fun.
Have you heard that Roscoe P. Coldchain dude that was on Star Trak (the record label)? Dude couldn't stay on beat if he ate a metronome.
Ha ha no, I'm gonna have to check him out now just for laughs. And now, I'm gone, like a Ninja! See y'all in a few days!

Almost died when he said ''nice pineapple''. lol
Triple Beam Dreams is on it. Rozay, Nas just murdered you on your own shit.
Dre on 3 kings : "Fuck a gym I am him Andre Young"
Detox is coming.
GFID confirmed as a better album than Life is Good.
As far as Nas albums go:
Illmatic > It Was Written > Stillmatic > The Lost Tapes > God's Son > Hip Hop Is Dead > I Am... > Life Is Good > Street's Disciple > Untitled > Nastradamus
If I had to rate them (out of 10): 10 - 8.5 - 8 - 7.5 - 6.5 - 6 - 5.5 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 in the order above. The grades are given roughly, don't really remember much from the low ranked albums.
Street's Disciple could have been a good album if it was trimmed down to 10 tracks, Thief's Theme is better than any song on Life Is Good.
The worst part about Life is Good is that it's boring. Good producers don't mean shit if you're going to pick their worst beats.
