Sep 28, 2016It's pretty tough to stomach at first. Even by Danny's standards his voice is shrill and unhinged. The beats are some of the darkest, occasionally sparse beats you've heard. But by the end you just kind of stare back in awe about how twisted and weird it was.
-
Sep 28, 2016A dark and twisted adventure, Atrocity Exhibition is a horror film in music form. Danny takes you down to the lowest points and thrusts vivid imagery at every turn. This album goes so hard it's amazing.

Oct 13, 2016Atrocity Exhibition is unstoppable, one of the most beautiful messes that I've ever heard, Brown really did something different here, wilder and more experimental but in the same time he maintained his style, giving us an original work with a big effort in trying to move forward in his career, visiting different sounds.

Sep 28, 2016Experimental, humorous, daring, challenging and ahead of its time. Danny Brown pushes the boat out to unmarked water in his new album by challenging the listener with experimental beats and his hilarious rhymes. One of the best albums of 2016 and a new bench mark for hip hop; Danny has once again pushed the boundaries of rap, well done Mr Brown.
-
Sep 27, 2016Atrocity Exhibition is another classic album you would expect from Danny Brown. The instrumentation is incredible and the rapping on it is fantastic. One of the best rap albums of 2016.
-
Sep 28, 2016By far the best Danny Brown album so far! If you liked XXX, but wanted more out of the beats in general (in a way that matches the mood of the lyrics) than this is for you. If you only like side B of Old and don't like dark, trippy music, then this definitely not for you. This album throws you for a ride like no other.

Sep 30, 2016Nobody in the rap industry sounds like Danny Brown vocally. ATROCITY EXHIBITION goes out of its way to make sure no one sounds like Brown production wise, as well. Danny's flow is complimented by some of the strangest beasts hip hop has ever seen. With OLD, Brown still had one foot in the mainstream and one foot in the Upside Down. This album is all Upside Down. This is Danny Brown's opus.
-
Sep 28, 2016Gut wrenching sound (very fresh/interesting and well executed), but I can't find myself saving to many songs. I find many songs getting muddle in the track-listing (songs that just get washed out).
-
Feb 3, 2020Atrocity Exhibition is daring, dadaistic, visceral and complex. As rhymes as beats has an impeccable technique and care.

Sep 29, 2016Danny brown never disappoints it's been 3 years and he's improved since old which is a good thing. I honestly like this project more than XXX now we wait for gangsta gibbs up next
-
Sep 28, 2016This probably Danny's most experimental album second only to XXX. This album is not made for everyone, but those of us that understand Danny's experimental side will love it. Exceptional hip hop for those into alternative hip hop.

Sep 28, 2020One of the better releases that year.
Twisted lyrics, dark and chaotic but cohesive beats, features from Kendrick Lamar, Ab-Soul, Earl Sweatshirt, The Alchemist and Black Milk.
Arguably the best album from Danny Brown's discography thus far. Definitely worth a listen. -
Apr 6, 2017I'm going to go as far as to say Danny has the most unique voice in modern popular hip hop. His squawky nasally voice pierces through every track and with a star studded lineup of features as well. He definitely belongs on Warp Records if you know what I mean
-
Mar 11, 2017Danny Brown sounds like a guy who's trying to make fun of a person like Lil Uzi Vert, but after the first few songs I got used to it and eventually enjoyed this album very much, the way Brown raps is wacky af but works somehow, his flow is fire, and his lyrics are impressive. All around great album.

Apr 16, 2017Classic Danny Brown album and some of the most abstract and unique hip-hop you will find. The production is stunning across the album, 'Ain't it Funny' being a highlight. Danny's drug fuelled lyricism is once again outstanding and this album really encapsulates his darkest moments whilst being entertaining throughout.
-
Sep 29, 2017Danny is one of the best rappers in the game right now. He has good lyricism, great production, and the hip hop GODS Kendrick Lamar, Ab Soul, and Earl Sweatshirt on ONE SONG!! Only complaint is that Danny's voice CAN get annoying every once in a while. 9/10
-
Nov 25, 2017Hard hitting yet incredibly enjoyable. The lyrics and topics within this record are pretty sinister, but they're complimented perfectly by the eccentric beats found throughout. Danny's 'deranged' sounding delivery is the final piece of this sick, twisted puzzle. An album as brilliant as it is weird and disturbing.
-
Feb 23, 2020Amazing album.Every single song is great.Production is amazing.Danny's rapping is top notch.Every guest appearance is great.The flow of the album is great.Love this album one of my favourite albums of all time.
-
Jun 14, 2018Experimental hip hop at its best. This album will make you feel like your the one going through the downward spiral of drug addiction, paranoia and depression that Danny Brown is going through. Best experience I've ever had listening to an album.

May 21, 2019Atrocity Exhibition is a rare lyrical masterpiece and Danny’s best work so far.
It’s hard to critique an album that does so much right, id advise a personal listen!
9/10 -
Oct 4, 2019I voted 10 but I wanted 9.5 or 9.6 actually lol. I just want to say that this artist is difficult to get into, but when you do, you can dance to even his most depressing songs. But anyway, even if you hate his voice, you cannot deny his 70k samples and beats are not dope and his lyrics very dark. My favourite album cover and my favourite album right now.
-
Jan 23, 2020AMAZING album, this is a masterpiece. its a amazingly executed piece of work about drug addiction with great lyricism and great artistry. this is a top 3 album that has dropped in the 2010's. his voice, while sounding very weird on the first listen fits the album perfectly.

Feb 25, 2020My personal favorite Danny Brown Album. I really love the track "Aint it Funny" just for how loud and rambunctious it can. I continue to love Danny Brown's voice and style as he continues to one up himself.
-
Apr 7, 2020I still listnen to songs on this album on a daily basis. This album is a masterpiece of music. The darkness and trippy aesthetic and psycho as well as psychedelic feeling and sound of this album is simply amazing. This is an album that you'll either love or hate.
-
Sep 9, 2021Is this what being on cocaine feels like? If so then I think I'm addicted. Absolutely amazing release.
-
Feb 3, 2021Crazy album that takes you through the highs and lows of a paranoid addict. Danny combines dark and at times hilarious lyricism with some of the most insane beats I have ever heard. Favorite tracks are Downward Spiral, Lost, Ain't It Funny, White Lines, and When It Rain.
-
Apr 6, 2022This album is one hell of a trip. Danny spits about the horrors of drugs and a way that only he can. His beat selection is at an all time high. His higher registry really brings a whole new vibe to the album. Experimental hip hop at its finest.

Jan 19, 2023It felt so damn wrong to give this an 10, but then again it felt right to give it a 10. Guess what, I HAVE NO PROBLEMS WITH THIS ALBUM WHAT SO EVER. This is a beautiful masterpiece, and I would listen to it again.

Nov 16, 2016On “When It Rain,” Brown shouts, “You ain’t heard it like this before,” like a madman. Atrocity Exhibition proves him right.

The WireNov 8, 2016If Atrocity Exhibition doesn’t connect with quite the same power, it’s not for lack of commitment or craft. [Oct 2016, p.53]

Nov 4, 2016A thematic sequel to 2011 breakout mixtape ‘XXX’, Danny Brown remains rap’s most unique force.
