Aug 25, 2019I really liked the first half of the album; 'no halo', 'boy bye', 'if you pray right' and 'dearly departed' were really great. Starting with 'born again' the album started to fall flat imo. It had some individual good bars and hooks but the super heavy use of auto tune really turned me off. Still thinks it's a very solid effort. When the boys shine they shine very bright.

Aug 31, 2019Great, versatile, clever and sensitive and vulnerable.
Great atmosphere.
Great use of sampling and great performances from everybody. -
Sep 1, 2019truly an improvement from iridescence, it seems as if they’re finding their new sound. really solid tracks such as sugar and dearly departed. not disappointed at all, in fact very pleasantly surprised.

Jan 22, 2020Great album from everyone working on it, with the autotune being a little excessive in tracks such as "Big Boy" and "Sugar", but make it up with songs such as "Boy Bye" and "If You Pray Right". Overall a beautiful album with some beautiful tracks like "No Halo" and "Dearly Departed".

Aug 24, 2019Ginger is not a strong BROCKHAMPTON's follow-up to Iridescence, but still worth the try.

Oct 3, 2019Crooked dude. His music speaks from himself. Nothing new and terribly boring. Let's get some original content lame-o.
-
Aug 27, 2019The sound of a hiphop boyband is on full force here which is what made the band popular in the first place. Although the uneven nature seems to unfortunately be a step backward.
-
Sep 12, 2019Overall, a very solid album but it doesn’t reach the standard set by the saturation trilogy. I would say it’s better than iridescence (felt like a more complete album) however, it’s just missing the “wow” factor that made the saturation albums so great.

Sep 10, 2019The boys are back! You can tell each of them have really grown, but in skill and subject matter

Sep 4, 2019Definitely their most emotionally intense album with a strong insight into the bands feelings on the loss of one of their members.

Sep 21, 2019Parece que após inúmeros álbuns, o coletivo encontrou uma sintonia em administrar os próprios gostos e influências de maneira coesa

Nov 1, 2019Beautiful work from the boys here. Love the sensitivity present while still being able to amaze lyrically and on the musical side. Only a couple tracks towards the end don't hit very hard, but DEARLY DEPARTED and VICTOR ROBERTS more than make up for that.
-
Sep 28, 2019Their best album hands down. Really enjoyed that collab with slowthai. Best songs on the album: NO HALO, BIG BOY, IF YOU PRAY RIGHT and HEAVEN BELONGS TO YOU.
-
Sep 29, 2019The most complete BROCKHAMPTON project to date, this album is the first of theirs that I truly think every song is quality. In spite of this, it could still be better. Aside from "VICTOR ROBERTS" I felt that the album began to drag after "DEARLY DEPARTED".

Apr 28, 2020Lots of truly great moments with the occasional unexplainable choice out of left field that doesn't work.

Jul 11, 2021brockhampton somehow pulled a 180 and made a sad kind of heartbreak album and it was really good, defied my expectations since before listening to this album i had seen some amounts of hate toward it. pretty great album overall
8/10 -
Apr 10, 2021This album is their best one to date. If the SATURATION trilogy was banger season, this is mood season. Everything done perfectly, not a bad song on the album.

Sep 26, 2019The album brims with delicate moments like the title track and standout "Victor Roberts." In the former, plumes of electronics caress empathetic lines with genuine emotion, while the latter introduces new associate Victor Roberts with crystallized observations of childhood trauma and grimy electricity. Exhibition of vulnerability and invincibility, Ginger blood-lets an emotional palette where wounds are finally left to heal.
-
Sep 18, 2019At this point of the Brockhampton story, the boys have tempered the antics and wild-child energy of past releases, maturing with an authentic grace that will only further endear them to fans of past work looking for more substance and sentiment.
-
Sep 4, 2019Their most mature and concise work to date.
