$tar face — Album Review Rating: 0/10 A spectacular misfire that somehow manages to make 35 minutes feel like an afternoon. There are bad albums, there are disappointing albums, and then there is $tar face — an album that seems almost actively opposed to the concept of being enjoyable. From the opening seconds, $tar face gives the impression that something interesting is about to happen. Unfortunately, it never does. Tracks blur together into a shapeless collection of half-developed ideas, questionable production choices, and songwriting that repeatedly mistakes randomness for experimentation. The biggest problem isn’t even that the album sounds bad. It’s that it sounds unfinished. Songs introduce ideas without developing them, transitions arrive seemingly because the track needs to end, and moments that could have been genuinely compelling are buried underneath production decisions that feel less like artistic choices and more like someone accidentally left every plugin turned on. Production The production is easily the album’s most frustrating element. There are flashes of creativity buried throughout $tar face, but almost every promising idea is immediately followed by something that completely kills its momentum. Layers fight for attention, effects are used without much apparent purpose, and the mix frequently feels like it was assembled rather than produced. It’s the musical equivalent of opening 47 browser tabs and wondering why the computer is struggling. Songwriting If the production is frustrating, the songwriting is downright painful. The album repeatedly establishes musical ideas that could lead somewhere interesting before abandoning them. Melodies feel incomplete. Structures seem arbitrary. Several tracks give the impression that the artist had a decent first draft, listened back once, and decided that was good enough. Experimentation is great. $tar face isn’t particularly experimental, though. It’s mostly just underwritten. The Verdict There is an interesting album buried somewhere inside $tar face. Unfortunately, this isn’t it. The occasional good idea makes the experience even more irritating because you can hear glimpses of what the project could have been. Instead, the album becomes an exhausting exercise in waiting for something to finally click. It never does. $tar face isn’t an ambitious failure or a misunderstood masterpiece. It’s simply an album that needed considerably more time, editing, songwriting, and probably a second opinion before anyone hit upload. 0/10 — Skip it. Your time is worth more. . . . . . . … if you have reached the bottom of the review. The entire review above is completely generated by Ai. It’s fitting because honestly I didn’t have time to make a good review. Just like tyga did with this album. Don’t listen to this shit.
