    From start to finish the record puts the fun back into rap

  2. 5.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    it is the preponderance of bland dance tracks lacking the wit of her previous singles which consign this debut to a failure

  3. 5.0 |   NME

    Over 13 tracks Kreay’s ‘thing’ wears waaay thin

  4. 4.0 |   PopMatters

    Even enlisting heavy hitters like Diplo, Boys Noize and Kid Cudi, Somethin’ ‘Bout Kreay still can’t rise above the glut of mid-level and novelty rappers clogging YouTube on any given day

  5. 4.0 |   Consequence Of Sound

    Neither remarkable or a trainwreck. What’s worse than that?

  6. 3.0 |   Spin

    Her natural voice is thin and raspy, her sense of rhythm is rudimentary, at best. She is a human who was probably not meant to rap

  7. 3.0 |   Pitchfork

    Dance songs so strident that no one could ever hope to move to them, pop songs so thin that no one could choose lines worth singing along to, rap verses so fumbly that practically anyone could rewrite them and make them better

  8. 2.5 |   A.V. Club

    The album’s handful of attempts to force Kreayshawn’s Adderall-addled persona into something other than mindless tantrum-rap cross the line from insipid into cringe-worthy

  9. 2.0 |   The Irish Times

    The Columbia label’s bottom line is unlikely to be overly troubled by profits from this wretched release

  10. 2.0 |   Under The Radar

    A pop album of awful pop music

Latest Reviews

David Byrne  Who Is The Sky

The artist’s new album of bright, bustling pop is positioned as a celebration of reasons to be cheerful. Often its fountain of optimism feels like a firehose of forced positivity Pitchfork

Ed Sheeran  Play

On the enjoyably moreish Play, the ‘culturally Irish’ star sounds as if he’s back on form. Although we’ve only had time for a quick listen The Irish Times

Baxter Dury  Allbarone

This record plays like his shot for glory, and with tracks as hooky and well-constructed as "Mockingjay" or the title track, there's no reason he shouldn't hit the big time All Music
