He was obviously talking about the material he had put out up to that point. Fantano gave Travis much more favorable reviews later on, let's not be disingenuous here.
bro.... i am just now finding this review... ever since this mixtape released, drugs you should try it has been one of my favorite songs ever created. it has been my go to song that makes me feel happy. it is perfect for any occasion and everyone i show this song to thinks it is incredible. just play this at a high volume on some high quality speakers and you will vibe like never before. same thing with Skyfall but not as much as DYSTI. i usually agree with this guy but what the hell is this review.
The lyrics were lackluster, but the beat and (for some weird reason) his "singing" in the background made the song really epic. Like Feefo from DEHH, it bumps in the whip.
Wait so you're saying that Sloppy Toppy is your favorite track on the album yet complain about the entire album having a "generic trap sound" to it?? Sloppy Toppy is the main song on the album that gives off that "trap sound" And Drugs You Should Try is the main song on the Album that doesn't give the "trap hood vibe" yet you say that's your least favorite song. You completely contradicted yourself with this review.
This review is 1000% wrong. Days Before Rodeo was a very good mixtape to me. I will tell you why. 1. The production was amazing 2.His flow was fitting to the beats. 3. Good features (Migos,Rich Homie,Young Thug,Big Sean) 4.(Biggest Reason) He has a VERY Original sound. Travis Scott has created his own style of music. With the distorted synths and high hats, he makes his beats sound different. Then on top of that,he has a flow that I personally have never heard before. And I am 10000% certain Travis Scott has the best ad-libs in rap ( That's the "Straight Up!" And "La Flame!" In the background). Travis is underappreciated because he's different. He's an artist in every sense of the word. This is easily the best Mixtape of 2014.
Left Shark4242 Both albums are platinum, 3500 went gold, Antidote went 3x platinum, through the late night went gold, Beibs in the trap went gold, Pick up the phone, & goosebumps went platinum!
His problem is that he is involving his feelings towards travis too much and not really just taking the music for its sonic value, he feels like he need to set some ground rules to what makes good and bad music. Which is dumb since music is art and art has no rules so he should just take it for its sonical value and base it on if he actually likes the music, and not just sit at talk about how many things he hates about travis.
I love how he says it’s a good thing Travis isn’t producing his own songs here, and than fast forward to utopia, he produced almost every song and they sound incredible and he made a great album
Be more open minded...you have an older perspective and that is all. This is easily one of the best tapes from 2014. This is coming from a person that LOVES Kendrick and Joey but this album balances out the thought provoking hip hop in my library. The lyrics alone arent supposed to be lyrical. But the whole project once it comes together kind of puts you in a trance. Great beats, good music.
Anthony the Reviewer he has an older perspective in terms of what he determines as great. His top rappers probably includes Nas, Em, rappers of that era
Another disappointing review by theneedledick. I'm a fan bro but really? Travis had a lot of good songs that BUMP on this mixtape. A song doesnt need crazy detailed, over your head, lyrics for it to be a good. Deserved at least an 8.
If the album is all about the beats, then why didn't he just put out an album of just instrumentals? If your not going to put any effort into your bars, then why spit at all? I will admit, Anthony is a bit of a hypocrite at times. Liking Lib and Rocky saying that lyrics don't matter, and dissing guys like Travis Scott for not being lyrical. But let's face it. What does this guys bars bring to the table? If they are not supposed to be lyrical, then couldn't he have some bars that would make you hype? Or angry? Or sad? What's the point of rapping on a record if you know that your bars being nothing to the table?
No Future00 actually...he is pretty damn great with lyrics. Sometimes he doesnt have alot of effort but most of the time he uses his lyricism like its double sided with multiple meanings he's very smart with his lyrics, and he is one of the best fucking producers i've seen in the past 5 years.
***** MBDTF is either Kanye's best or one of his worst depending on which Kanye ur into (old/new) personally i thought it wasn't my cup of tea but it def is not bad. I cam understand y some may like it even if i don't personally. My fav Ye album is Graduation
+Matthew T "Then again this geek gave [us his own opinion] so his opinion is invalid (even though all of our opinions are just as valid as his)" - Matthew T
“I can’t see any of Travis’s albums going #1. 5 years later we got *rodeo* considered the best trap album of all time, birds which went #1 and *astroworld* which had every song on the billboard hot 100. Oh btw Astro got #1 again
Rodeo is ass Birds is dogshit Astroworld could be made by a baby Jackboys is ass with the only good song by thugger But this mixtape is the best Project hes ever put out Dbr 2/10
You underappreciated this album. He is nothing like mainstream, barely gets radio play. His songs are good and you aren't listening deep enough into the lyrics. He actually reminisces on backyard. Coming from someone who is ab soul, joey Badass, and Kendrick fan Travis Scott is slept on and has talent. Nobody says shit about Kendrick recent verses which has nothing special..some people target different audiences, maybe he is not going for the lyrical audience because we are not Majority. Widen your music choices and don't just listen for lyrical showcases. Adapt to different styles of music. Travis has so much talent kanye bit off his flow on Yeezus...nobody can deny that
dude I love this because this will always apply to underground music. people won’t understand it till it gets popular, and fantano will hate it until it gets popular. watch him love Ken and lone when they blow up more
IMO Melon's worst take is his 3/10 on Days Before Rodeo and him saying that the worst song is "Drugs You Should Try It", which is arguably one of if not the best song Travis has made.
theneedledrop The guy is right though. Kanye and a list of other artists site Travis as the originator of the style. Check Scott's interview with Rosenberg and ebro.
You're only losing people with that the choice of words -- "more." Kanye influences EVERYONE in rap more than Travis Scott, because Kanye is a transcendent pop culture figure. And Travis Scott is...well, he's just a guy, as far as most people are concerned (aside from his many production credits, his career as a rapper is not very much on the mainstream radar). However, as a person who's been a fan of rap music across the board for years now, I can tell you that Kanye was not nearly as obsessed with the "trap sound" as he has been in the 2-3 years since working with Travis, so there's definitely a point to be made there. Correlational maybe, but real nonetheless
When you look back on this dudes reviews, you realize how awful his taste is. He consistently misses the mark on new sounds. If he dislikes something, it’s likely to be an absolute classic
when an album is so ahead of its time like this, but he gives it a bad review, it's because he and the general public aren't on the wave yet. look where he is now, he and the general public caught up with the wave of dark atmospheric trap that's more about emotions and feelings than complicated, badass lyrics, which is the only thing traditional hip hop is about. and that's why this new wave is so much better, it's an evolution for rap music and music as a whole because of how influential it's been. and when you think about it, it's objectively better because it's actually deep and everyone can connect to it.
i cant even watch the video i just open the description an saw the 3/10. nothing you say can justify a 3/10 on the best project i've heard since mbdtf.
10 years later and it’s finna sell over 200k first week on streaming for a re-release. This did not age well lol. Also these old comments are like a Time Machine 😂
Omgonthe123 not really. it's still just bland trendiness. the beats are better, but travis is still an incredibly average rapper, and his hooks have somehow gotten more obnoxious.
Days Before Rodeo is the best rap album of 2014, I have no doubt about that. Anthony can be really biased which ruins his credibility; it's kind of why I only like listening to his good reviews. I thought Owl Pharaoh was one of the worst pieces of music I've ever heard but even I gotta give credit where credit is due, Days Before Rodeo is the best mixtape released since Acid Rap.
anthony fantano isn't biased, you are the biased one sir. to be honest this is a good review, days before rodeo received way too much hype. if you think this album is good you either just really like the album, or you have no idea what lyrical content in music is and you just like that travis scott made the tape.
Days Before Rodeo kills all of them, and you're talking to a guy who's been bumping everything TDE even before they blew up. Like seriously, "Setbacks" by Q is my shit. I love Oxymoron, I love Cilvia Demo but I honestly think DBR outclasses all of them. As for Jeezy...just...lol...gtfo...
not to be corny but....has this guy reviewing ever spent a night out on the town under the influence of any sort of drug? if not then hes really not qualified to interpret travis scotts music lmao
Travi$ isn't a great lyricist but his music is so fucking addictive and beautiful. The beats on DBR are incredible. The whole overall sound is what got me attached to this mix tape.
A 3? 😕 I HIGHLY DISAGREE. The production alone deserves at least a 8.0! I don't like Rich Homie Quan, and im not a Migos fan. I don't listen to T.I either, but the production is so Dope "I" looked past all that and enjoyed songs like "SLOPPY TOPPY". I GIVE THIS MIXTAPE A 9.0😎. It's not too many albums/MixTapes I can listen to all the way thru.
Wow you had nothing much to say about Backyard. Lyrically that song was on point. He knows how to arrange music and vocal placement is on point. Sonically pleasing to my ears.
He said he couldn’t see Trav’s solo albums climbing to the top of the charts 💀 and idk how he didn’t fw this legendary tape, I wonder how different his take on DBR would be in the present lol
I think this might be the most hilarious comment I've ever seen. He knows what he's talking about, but his opinion is trash? I'm trying so hard to understand but I simply can't.
Alright I agree that Travis $cott isn't extremely good but why didn't he talk about Backyard? That beat and Travis' flow on that song were incredibly good. Best song on the tape by far
ME:Loved swimming would rate it a strong 8 to a light 9 Fantano: 3 ME: Loved Days before Rodeo would rate it a strong 8 to a light 9 Fantano:3 Are you kidding me Anthony?
I thought this album was out of this world, at least sonically. This kind of music is not supposed to be lyrically impressive but it is fun as shit and serves for an entertaining purpose which will hit you hard if you are in the right mood. Its all a matter of perspective, even when it comes to music.
Travi$ Scott isn't lyrical ? "I'm so ahead my time could I have shown up any sooner" "I'm just trynna ball why these niggas want me nudered" "How we gone get Oscar proud if they pay us penny's" maybe not lyrical but he has punchlines and wordplay
I knew ppl would hate on this review the second jt came judging by the mainstream sound lovers in the comment section of hnhh claiming this the best project ever
Great review. I appreciate your thought process. One thing, your glasses seem to slip down on your face very often and you have to correct it a lot in the video. Do they need tightening?
3 outta 10!?!? Now i'm convinced you do this shit for shock value. I guess albums gotta be the apex of the genre just to get a fairly decent rating. Ridiculous
I don't see why ppl just can't respect that Travis is NOT another lyrical miracle spiritual and that he's just simply a good ARTIST not a big MC. Though I respect Fantano's opinion for the most part I thought it was too biased again for a fullout 'review'.
I still can't sleep at night knowing someone thinks Drugs You Should Try It is the worst track on a 3/10 album
Had to come back just to rewatch this video in disgust. Drugs is Travis' greatest song ever made without doubt.
Drugs you should Try It imy favourite song on there
And the whole fucking mixtape is listenable
Drugs you should try it could revolutionize hip hop

The lyrics were lackluster, but the beat and (for some weird reason) his "singing" in the background made the song really epic. Like Feefo from DEHH, it bumps in the whip.

Who’s here after the re-release?
heh, me
Me
"I can't see his solo albums reaching the top of the chart" that aged well
And we still here!!🔥🔥waiting for utopia
ITS BACK AND ON THE CHARTS HAHA
Travi$ isn't a great lyricist but his music is so fucking addictive and beautiful. The beats on DBR are incredible. The whole overall sound is what got me attached to this mix tape.
Same man
+Jonathan Juarez what did u think about Rodeo?
Listen to backyard
Andrew Brown lol why are you telling me this? I've listened to Backyard like 200 times
+Jon Swavyy LMAO
D.B.R>Rodeo
u give 8/10 for rodeo
And dbr for 3? r u kidding white boy
+Semih Soylu Rodeo is 10x better
+ThatRandomDude nah
+ThatRandomDude rodeo have only autotune and good beats
+ThatRandomDude i like rodeo too
rodeo is better imo
Blud is the CEO of Bad Takes 💀🙏
The needle drop been destroying album reviews lately he gave a rack of low scores this year he thirsty for that Kendrick that's y lmao
Or maybe cause you only watch reviews of mediocre albums
A 3? 😕
I HIGHLY DISAGREE.
The production alone deserves at least a 8.0! I don't like Rich Homie Quan, and im not a Migos fan. I don't listen to T.I either, but the production is so Dope "I" looked past all that and enjoyed songs like "SLOPPY TOPPY".
I GIVE THIS MIXTAPE A 9.0😎.
It's not too many albums/MixTapes I can listen to all the way thru.
yes officer this man right here
This review did not age well
I’m feeling a light 9
8:45 I hope u know I watch u in ur sleep
holy shit he said Drugs You Should Try It was the worst song??? this is one of Anthony’s worst claims ever
Wow you had nothing much to say about Backyard. Lyrically that song was on point. He knows how to arrange music and vocal placement is on point. Sonically pleasing to my ears.
this aged like shit
rs
He said he couldn’t see Trav’s solo albums climbing to the top of the charts 💀 and idk how he didn’t fw this legendary tape, I wonder how different his take on DBR would be in the present lol
Actually a contender for worst Melon take
Worst Melon take indeed
This Album was Amazing! 9/10
We’re in 2020 now and ‘drugs you should try it’ is still probably his best song to me
Can't lie, this guy knows what he's talking about, he knows a lot about music but I disagree with this review. It's his opinion, and his opinion TRASH
I think this might be the most hilarious comment I've ever seen. He knows what he's talking about, but his opinion is trash? I'm trying so hard to understand but I simply can't.
It's hard reading in a sarcastic tone my nigga
it’s like his progression from the playboi carti tape to die lit- he just went into this tape listening for the wrong things
Waiting for the redux 👀
10 years later officially drops. So that equals to a 10/10 well done🔥
ten years, the description says nine years cause he reviewed it eleven days after dbr dropped
Im here after re release
Alright I agree that Travis $cott isn't extremely good but why didn't he talk about Backyard? That beat and Travis' flow on that song were incredibly good. Best song on the tape by far
jesus christ what are were you thinking
Its 2024, Hopefully Melon has recovered from his severe brain damage.
MAY LA FLAME LIVE FOREVER !!!
ME:Loved swimming would rate it a strong 8 to a light 9
Fantano: 3
ME: Loved Days before Rodeo would rate it a strong 8 to a light 9
Fantano:3
Are you kidding me Anthony?
the prayer, dysti, skyfall, backyard, sloppy toppy, mamacita are all still bumped to this day
One certainty in life is if Fantano grossly underrates your album it's going to age like fine wine
I thought this album was out of this world, at least sonically. This kind of music is not supposed to be lyrically impressive but it is fun as shit and serves for an entertaining purpose which will hit you hard if you are in the right mood. Its all a matter of perspective, even when it comes to music.
I made a second account to dislike this video again
Doing gods work.
We need a re review immediately
how dare u insult the greatest song ever created. dysti slander is not tolerated ANYWHERE
he doesn’t even know how legendary that album is going to be..... 2020 gang wya
re-review time?
hahahah omg this confirms you are the WOAT reviewer
jamie mk how do you figure? this tape whack!
GO WIPE YA TEARS WITH A BEEN TRILL SHIRT JAMIE
Go back to KTT you lame Trash Scott stan
The Fuck is a WOAT?
Worst of all time?
10 year annaversiry what the sigma!
3/10 is crazy, I love every track on this thing
Fantano will review my album one day
Travi$ Scott isn't lyrical ?
"I'm so ahead my time could I have shown up any sooner"
"I'm just trynna ball why these niggas want me nudered"
"How we gone get Oscar proud if they pay us penny's" maybe not lyrical but he has punchlines and wordplay
that aint very lyrical bro lol
"Maybe not lyrical but he has punchlines and wordplay"
Let me put it like this he's better than migos rich homie quan riff raff drake lil durk tyga future etc...
Kendrick is definitely better
Juwan Joseph you crazy dumb if you think this nigga than drake lyrically
I knew ppl would hate on this review the second jt came judging by the mainstream sound lovers in the comment section of hnhh claiming this the best project ever
u mean HHH? reddit.com/r/hiphopheads
***** no
Eat Sleep Skeet why tho?
YOU MUSICALLY DONT AGREE WITH ME ABOUT EVERYTHING? UNSUBBED AND DOWNVOTED
coming back to this after release on streaming for dbr and i still cant believe what he gave this. i demand a redux.
Great review. I appreciate your thought process. One thing, your glasses seem to slip down on your face very often and you have to correct it a lot in the video. Do they need tightening?
no way you called it dumb
3 outta 10!?!? Now i'm convinced you do this shit for shock value. I guess albums gotta be the apex of the genre just to get a fairly decent rating. Ridiculous
TRAVIS GAVE KANYE HIS "new" SOUND THATS A FACT
and it's not a good sound
Then why does this sound so much like 808s & Heartbreaks?
you're either trolling or a complete dumb ass
No
I don't see why ppl just can't respect that Travis is NOT another lyrical miracle spiritual and that he's just simply a good ARTIST not a big MC.
Though I respect Fantano's opinion for the most part I thought it was too biased again for a fullout 'review'.
little did he know Travis was going to be one of the biggest artists on earth
