    The first half of the album really seem like a noisy and glaring draft. This part clearly made me lower the score. The second half is more agreable to listen to. Lyrically, Princess Nokia doesn't disappoint us: she is still sharp, precise and intelligble, even if she barely reaches the harshness of her former album 1992 (with titles like 'Brujas', 'Mine' or 'Kitana').

Production and instrumentals are awesome as they always were in a Princess Nokia piece of work, and are perfectly oriented to a darker style and lyrics.
    The idea of publishing a double album the same day is brilliant and makes a lot of sens in Princess Nokia's experience of life.    … Expand

    Everything is Beautiful/Everything Sucks is a fun album that allows Frasqueri to show both sides of her personality. ... The main problem with Everything is Beautiful/Everything Sucks is that it doesn’t contain anything as devastating as ‘G.O.A.T.’, ‘Tomboy’ or ‘Kitana’. The songs never quite hit the same vein of intensity, catchiness and lyrical abstraction. There are moments when it comes close.

    Princess Nokia's genre-surfing might be attention-grabbing, but it's her honesty, openness and clarity of expression that make her a musician you can really invest in. [May 2020, p.111]

    The decision to segregate different moods and styles into these contrasting releases was a risky one, but it pays off in that both records remain interesting for their duration. Princess Nokia is for the most part a great rapper, but can sometimes lapse into an artless earnestness, as this enjoyable but patchy diptych demonstrates.
