    Post Malone really stepped up his game when it came to Beerbongs and Bentleys. His work just keeps getting better and better. This is honestly an album full of hits that I listened to on repeat for hours on end when it first came out. Definitely worth a listen!

    Seeing as how much I detest trap-rap, someone please tell me why I kind of like this album? Seriously, this was an overall enjoyable listen! There are plenty of songs on here that have a genuine vibe to them, like "Paranoid, "Over Now," and "Stay." "Rockstar" is also an excellent trap song, and tracks like that and "Zack and Codeine" prove that Post doesn't need to necessarily emote toSeeing as how much I detest trap-rap, someone please tell me why I kind of like this album?

"Rockstar" is also an excellent trap song, and tracks like that and "Zack and Codeine" prove that Post doesn't need to necessarily emote to make great songs. Despite the tracks "Spoil My Night," "92 Explorer," and "Candy Paint" being very insufferable, I might come back to this album eventually. Definitely is worth checking out.

    When people ask me what my favorite album is, I'll tell them... "beerbongs & bentleys". This album was AMAZING, start to finish. I don't understand why people are hating on this guy. "Stoney" was a great album. I feel like they didn't give it a chance. They just decided that it was going to be bad because Post released songs that came after "White Iverson".

    Great album although some songs are sounding the same. The lyrics are mediocre but his voice is very relaxing and balances the score. The album includes calm songs like "Psycho" and more aggressive songs like "Over Now". In all this creates a decent mix and makes the album worth hearing.

    I enjoy almost all of the tracks on BB&B, and is definitely a step up from Stoney. The production value is 10 times better, and the album as a whole feels more complete. I gave it an 8/10 because towards the end, it all gets a bit lost for me. I feel like the album should have been made shorter, as over an hour of Post is too much for me sometimes.

    Stoney was an absolute mess to me. it had no depth and I could never get a true feel for it, however though B&B has its dull moments I felt compelled to give it a perfect score based on the growth alone.

As I said before, the album itself is by no means a perfect 10, rather more of a strong six to a light seven. However, his growth as an artist is so intriguing that I gave it a 10. The transformation within two years is amazing. I'm excited to watch this man grow more and perhaps create a true 10/10 piece in the future.… Expand

    This album is just fun, if you were looking for something more "deep", this is not the right album. It sounds pretty good, it's not the big deal, it's easy to hear it. I think that Post Malone can go by another music line as in "Stay", the ballads are very good with a acoustic guitar and his voice with autotune.

    A decent album, with catchy-yet generic lyrics, Post Malone delivers a much stronger performance than Stoney.

    I like Austin as a person the more i see of him (h3 podcast folks wassup!) but I don't know if I get down with the trap that's kind of taken over what's popular at the moment, it seems like to grow as a musician he needs to take more risks and innovate more and develop his own sound.

He seems like he's keeping up with trends more than he's pushing boundaries and he needs to get raw and real with his audience and somehow translate that thru his music. Still, he does what he does better than some of the other folks and soundcloud rappers in the game. I'd give it a 7 based on that.… Expand

    Alternative hip-hopper Post Malone sparks the world with one of the most anticipated albums of this year. Most tracks include a very vivid and audible slur that will drag you in with the groove and beats of each rhythm. Post Malone's fame is only getting started and he's going to keep reaching new heights in the rate he's going through all the viewers out there.

    Beerbongs & Bentleys for me is a massive improvement over Stoney. I liked Stoney, but it lacked any depth and Post Malone seemed to not have anything unique about him.

However, this album isn't perfect either. Some of the songs are bland and others are kind of repetitive. By the time you make it to maybe the tenth track, it's been pretty much the same thing over and over. In the end, this album is good and an improvement over the last, but still not perfect.… Expand

    For a hip-hop album, beerbongs and bentleys has a great variety of songs, which makes it unique. There are songs for everybody. Whether it's the slow, vocal based songs like "Psycho" and "Stay", or the more fast-paced "Over Now" or "rockstar", the album is broad in musical styles. There are some creative lyrics as well, and the beats to this album are pretty well produced.

There are some creative lyrics as well, and the beats to this album are pretty well produced. The biggest problem is that some songs can feel extremely bland right next to each other, as sometimes the same subject matter is repeated in multiple songs. For example, he talks about cars for the last three tracks of the album, and them three together isn't special. Overall, beerbongs and bentleys shows Post Malone's possible potential for the future.… Expand

    Beerbongs & Bentleys is an album that I bought on CD for my car when my AUX cord broke, and I haven't stopped listening. This album has so many great songs on it, from Paranoid to Ball for Me, and the commercial success of Rockstar. These songs and all the others make for an album that is worth a full listen from track 1 to 18, over and over again. One of the best albums of 2018 and deservedly so.

    This album got me through public transportation in one of the unsafest places in my state. Helped me cope with my trauma, but I don't listen to it much anymore because I associate it with trauma. However, this album was really good. Maybe I'm stockholm syndroming it, but it is what it is.

    Beautiful melodies and fine production. One of the best hip hop albums I heard. What I love most about Post is his versatility, going from trap/rap to r&b and even pop. The collection of hits he's getting trough the years shows that he's here to stay. 10/10.

    The hate that his album gets is genuinely astounding. It features some of the greatest trap songs of the 2010s and is packed with party bangers. If you're looking for a cohesive and deep album you won't find it here. But at least appreciate it for what it is.

    Beerbongs & Bentleys is an apt reflection of his lavish lifestyle and his subsequently begotten hardships, but its attempts at sincerity work only when Post Malone stops trying so hard.

    There are occasional intrusions of other ideas, like the agonized rock on “Over Now,” and when far more formalist artists like Nicki Minaj or G-Eazy arrive, they sound like teachers trying to enforce order in detention. But in total, Beerbongs & Bentleys is admirably committed to form, one long song of the decontextualized now.

    This moment of fuzzed-out, fucked-up pop music with questionably scant odes to rap music is not designed for posterity. To his credit, Post gets that, and is content to make overlong albums where every song can be a single. Not every song on beerbongs and bentleys can be a single, but there’s enough of them hiding in there to make it one of 2018’s more rewarding releases.
