Considering you have taken two of picks I would have taken, I agree

 

[Jimmy King]

Had to save the best for last with my final pick.

You’re up @The Fourth Wall

Having trouble to fall asleep so at least I can make my pick. Glad I lurked my phone.

 

[Sabretooth]

Good old Britney.

Your last pick couldn't get more perfect, Jimmy

Been debating on going with Arctic Monkeys for a few rounds now, so it felt right to draft one of their albums. Always really enjoyed their sound a lot.

Looking forward to listening to everybody's albums, this draft has been a total blast.

Album Listen #11: It was a good album to listen too - personally it wasn't great though. But I could find myself listening to it again. I have nothing negative against it though, just not the highest of praises either. ​

will be using this scale:

1-10 scale

1 awful

2 really bad

3 bad

4 meh

5 okay

6 good

7 pretty good

8 great

9 amazing

10 legendary

started with Reputation. so far I'll admit it's not my jam or what I was expecting. Very new rap/auto tune stuff so far. Personally more into the classic pop stuff she has done. pretty early on the album though so we will see what shakes out.

Going in order of when they were drafted, so today I'm starting of with Reputation.

Always liked Taylor Swift just from overhearing her bigger hits over the years but can't say I've ever actually sat down to listen to a full album. I really liked the vibe of this album a lot, it's very chill. Actually found the first song to be my favourite ",,,Ready For it?" it's just one of those songs I'd stick on repeat, super catchy and enjoyable to listen to. Thought 'Call It What You Want' was amazing too, feels like a dreamy trip. One thing I really appreciated about this as well is the amount of genre shifts it seems to have, you get a bit of everything here. It's like a mish mash of many types of music I enjoy. Rap, electronic, pop, R&B. I always like when artists are able to pull off so many different things at once, this is so different to a lot of her other music I've heard, it felt unrecognisable at times. I'm very impressed and will checking out more of her full albums.

Appreciate you drafting this @Blaze, I probably wouldn't have sat down and listened to her albums if not.​

Going to borrow this, Jeff! I was trying to figure out how to best rate these, and I like this format a lot.

Also, I love that Reputation timing from us.
