I mean a 7 is a pretty fair score for DAMN.
strong 7 isnt a bad score on the fantano scale

7 was the lowest score i assumed it could get. this album is a huge step for him and even though some might not like the mixing/muffled noise of some parts, it adds to the experience of him as a ghost. I've listened to nothing but this album since for the most part and it is easily one of the best works put out there this year.

Really surprised you didn't even mention the concept of the album - that being from the perspective of a ghost. Imo it adds necessary context to the album, and I enjoy it so much more with that in mind
same !! idk why he just glossed over what makes this album stand out - its unique and haunting concept
100% it seems in some ways he understood the concept but with how intrinsic it is to the enjoyment of the album, for me at least, I wish he would've at least gone into the first few tracks that deal with quad reflecting on his suicide and not being able to get through to his mother cause it is a really heart-wrenching story.
Ur broke 😂😂
I hope Quadeca gets his flowers on this one. Multiple listens and understating the concept of the record is a really essential for this album. I hope he’s doing okay now mentally. The lyrics are down right depressing at some points but I give this a strong 8 to light 9.
I don’t think Fantano understood if I’m honest
Ur broke 😂😂
Really good review. I think the only thing that surprises me a bit is the glossing over of Knots. It seems to be, by consensus, one of the best loved songs on the album and his live reaction to it seemed really positive.
yea that surprised me too, i thought that would be a shoe in for favorite tracks... oh well
I feel like the track is too long for a banger. The last 30 seconds isn't as good
FACTS especially since he loved it so much in the stream
I think it was because it landed on too many spots in the Fantano Bingo card that it weirdly cancelled themselves out for it

@@5679_ ur broke 😂
It seems apparent that Fantano didn’t connect as deeply with the narrative of the project as many of us do. I feel like the sound of cassini’s division is super appropriate in context-he’s willingly surrendering himself to the infinite void, which, despite being the only way to end his purgatory, is fucking scary. It feels right that truly letting go of your whole life would include some emotional purging. The progression of sobbing into the static build is a sobering (but ultimately relieving) depiction of Ben finally transcending his human form. Surrendering his last bit of humanhood to infinite nothingness.
^this!!!
Yeah I completely agree, I feel like he understood the concept, but that doesn’t usually take precedence in his reviews. Because to be fair, I do often skip that song Bc it’s not exactly enjoyable to listen to. However, I wouldn’t count it against the album.
Overall tho the review was pretty fair
@@bobbycilke9381 totally agree!! Probably my least favorite track if I had to pick and only something I listen to in album context
Totally agreed, I think the album might not be the best piece of music of all time or anything, but I wouldn’t change a thing about the album just based on how good every sound fits together to tell one of the best stories I’ve ever heard, and that by itself puts it up as one of my favorite albums of all time and at the very least a decent to strong 9
7 feels just slightly low imo but its just great to see you reviewing his albums at all, im sure hes thrilled to see it

Man, that's lower than I thought he'd get, but a big W for Quadeca. He was happy just to get a review and a 5 before.
I don't know whether it would matter, but it's a bit odd Fantano didn't mention the concept of the album at all, felt more like he just reviewed tracks on their own. Cassini's Division is definitely not the best song on the album, but it serves a big purpose to the concept.
Will be interesting to see if a song like Fantasyworld cracks his top 10 songs of the year (or Born Yesterday if he just does singles)
Ur broke 😂😂😂
For real bro, the concept of the album and the lyrics throughout are part of what make this so good. I feel like he spent 90% of the time talking about the production and singing and barely mentioned the lyrics and theme of the album. I feel like one of Fantano's complaints about many albums is that they feel like a collection of tracks rather than a themed album, and this album is so well themed and cohesive that it deserves some credit for that, which he didnt give. I think its a strong 8 at least if you consider that
Wasn't really feelin the album all that much at first cuz I only listened to it on Spotify but after watching the movie it clicked with me and grew on me heavy, Didn't think I would say this for a RUclips rapper's record but this album is fantastic
@@5679_ bro u have no life commenting this under every comment wtf
@@perplexed1783 I suspect he didn't watch it, which may have factored in to this, he may be a seasoned reviewer but he is only human and I don't expect him to know there was even a movie or dig too deep into the narrative
He clearly didn't enjoy the music as much as others, but even then I feel like the movie and concept give it points, but ofcourse only to an extent (as highlighted by kendrick lamar this year with a great narrative, but honestly music that doesn't match up, however my opinion is that quadeca does brilliantly in both departments and fantano clearly doesn't see it that way, which is fine)
Anthony, you can't take off 3 points because he haunted you, he didn't mean to do it.
If it was called I didn’t mean to haunt from me to you, you would’ve gave it a 12/10
If it was called I didnt pimp to the money ghosts, it would be a 37/10

Cassinis division was one of my favourite tracks, i think it had the strongest identity, it had a function in the album that no other song could really occupy, which is not the case for sme tracks on the first half, as good as they may be, they are not so easy to distinguish from one another. The weird noises sample that loops through the beginning of the track seems weird at first but actually works really well at building atmosphere imo. It was really creative to pull off a track like this from what elements can be found in it. I do agree with the fact that the spoken word passage isnt exceptionally captivating, and that the piano arpeggios are redundant, but for what its worth i think the 'unflattering' aspect of the crying make this track evoking of strong emotions and more hard hitting, like the feeling you get when someone you know is crying
Ur broke 😂😂
@Qlos what would you say is the storyline of Yeezus?
Massive oversight in not mentioning this is a concept record and how each song ties into that. Thats what pushes it up to a 9, mayb even a 10 for me. Its executed perfectly and I'm sad you didnt acknowledge it.
He did mention that multiple times
@@turqdeth he vaguely referenced that there is a “theme” and a “concept” without actually talking about what it is, and what each song is about. I like fantano but chalking up lyrics to just emo and “he’s going through it” seems pretty dismissive
@@AdityaKumar-xu6ug yeah I felt that too, it was a really well thought out character which expands on the concept of the previous record massively, but I feel fantano has little care for the profundity most others are experiencing.
I feel the movie is an integral part of the listening experience and I would suspect fantano didn't watch it as he didn't even mention it, I don't blame the man as he is very busy to look at new music all the time, he probably didn't even consider watching it.
But regardless of if he did or not, I do understand many of his criticisms, It was just shocking to not see an 8 after the description he had, and that's why I think he didn't watch the movie aswell as his own enjoyment obviously being lower than most.
In spite of all of this, we still love this album and its only his job to review it critically, if anything a score like this is helpful as we know quadeca takes criticism honestly and hopefully he can improve even further, but I personally wouldn't ask that from him right now, he poured his soul into this and definately needs to keep himself healthy first before even thinking about committing as much as he did on this record to another 👍
That's exaclty what fantano mentioned at the end of the review he is aware and acknowledges that there is a concept and that everything is tied quite nicely, so no, there is no oversight here, i think is an 8 very good record
He's definitely aware that it's a concept album, he just doesn't mention that kind of stuff in his reviews.
Quqdeca should compile all his imitating rappers style videos into one album. It wouldn’t be good but he should do it.

Brief explanation of idmthy:
The character of the album is a version of Quadeca who follows through on taking his own life. He was stuck in a life he felt was not worth living and he became fascinated by the idea of not existing so he took his own life. To his surprise he ascends into a ghostly form of himself and quickly begins to regret his decision. He watches over his family as they move on from his death and he becomes desperate to communicate with them as he feels like he is being forgotten. In a moment of weakness and selfishness, he sets off a carbon monoxide leak with the hopes of his mother being able to see him in the hallucinations. This attempt to communicate failed and he almost ended up killing his mother. He is overwhelmed with guilt, loneliness, and the idea of being forgotten causing him to have a panic attack. After calming down, he reflects on the moments leading up to his suicide with a newfound perspective gaining some amount of closure. “let me go but don’t let go of me”. He is then able to enter the void and become consumed by static as he achieves his original goal of not existing. Only this time he wishes he could be alive with his loved ones.
nah he definitely did kill his mother
If this album was named Kids Didn’t Mean To Haunt Your Ghosts, than you would’ve given it a 10

Quadeca is a true representation of what hard work can do for music. Quadeca had always put lots of work and care into his music, perfecting every detail. At a young age Quadeca has already been able to bring together great abouts of sound into a very clear feeling. I love it. I love it. I love it. It's what I strive to be able to make in my future.
As I continue my journey of music creation, I gain appreciation for how incredible other music is. I have learned just how hard it is to make music like this. So creative, so passionate, Quadecas music has inspired me.
If anything, A Dream I Can’t Remember back in Voice Memos was just an introduction about what his potential could be both from a production standpoint and from a rapping/vocal standpoint.

I understand it references the line about cutting to static, but the impact of cassini's division isn't how good of a song it is, it's about how the story finally ends with quadeca finally moving on to the afterlife.

Even though I am disappointed by the score, the point still stands - Quadeca made an incredible album. I did not bury a family of 4 in Portland, Oregon off the side of a freeway on December 7th, 2004.
Diggy loves driving those freeways! We drove through there on a road trip once and he kept stopping every few miles to “get out and stretch his legs”. In reality he would just start sniffing the air and wandering down the side of the road for close to 30 minutes at a time before coming back with determination in his eyes and driving another couple of miles. One time he was gone for 2 hours and came back covered in dirt! He sure got up to some crazy stuff back in the day haha.
This album was seriously amazing. I hope you do another interview with Ben some day soon!
I'm in the middle of watching this review and trying to avoid being spoiled and holy hell Anthony I've been waiting a while for this.
im fully aware that a strong 7 is a great score, but man, now i know how people felt when u gave DAMN a 7 lol. to me, this album is a decent 8 at least, but i feel like ur opinion on it is wayyy different from most people's, despite still generally liking it. like, as opposed to most people, you thought the first half was the strongest, and a lot of people's favorite tracks were the ones you weren't crazy about. im mostly just bummed about no yellow flannel for quadeca tho.
Knots not being in favorite tracks is the plot twist of the century.
Strong 7 is basically an 8, but 8 is the new 9 but 9 rounded up is 10. Confirmed 10/10
On a serious note, probably the most unique release this year and I'm absolutely hyped to hear more from Quadeca.

Anthony you can’t take away 3 points just because quadeca dissed your favorite artist, KSI, 3 years ago
I’m disappointed that you didn’t talk about the concept and themes of this record, considering how prominent they are and how they make the album such a cohesive listen. It felt pretty dismissive to just chalk it up to “emo” and “he’s going through it” when there was so much attention and detail put into the lyrics. And you quite frequently talk about the themes of other albums
Kind of reminded me of him not talking about the themes of “the first glass beach album” back in 2019 or whenever he finally reviewed it? 2020? But really cool reviews nonetheless that both turned me onto these artists
Before I watch I rate it a decent to strong 9, and I predict a decent to strong 8 from you. Big stuff, amazing effort and story, fantastic production, Quadeca really blew me away with this album
He gave it a 7 :(
every time i relistened to this album it grows on me ngl, id give it a 9
Wish there was a little more analysis of the album as a concept, rather than just explanations of musical / textural choices. Still a great review nonetheless.
