    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bad album. Can't listen to it. Why is he releasing an album this time of the year? I don't get the hype and fame he is getting. Yes, sunflower was good but that's it.… Expand

    Es malísimo, siempre lo mismo. Nada innovador. Esperaba un poco más de ritmo pero siento que no cambia nada. Es algo aburrido y cansado escucharlo

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. it doesn't come as a surprise to me that we were presented with this POP album with various artists featured for the attraction of album sales. I find the ability to collaborate all these RAP/HIpHop artists on a strong POP album fascinating yet there is only two songs that stand out from the others. One of which we have been able to hear for several months now. I'm not sure what the direction of this pop, impersonation rock, and urban "project" is going. Stick to making the radio bops Posty, leave the deeper meaningful music to other genres, not this old hybrid cluster mess they keep trying to make work.… Expand

    There’s not one song on this album that sounds any different than the next one and every song can be summed up with 808s and auto tune complaining.

    Sunflower and the feat with Halsey are the best songs. The other songs look the same as your previous albums

    Garbage as usual. It’s like his lyrics write themselves. No original content. Maybe the sound design is tolerable.

    De los peores albumes que he escuchado este año. La verdad no entiendo el hype, el album es realmente mediocre y soso. Espero que Post Malone pase rapidamente al olvido porque ya demostró en dos ocasiones que no está a la altura de la industria.

    Would give it a 3.5 if I could. Liked "Hollywoods Bleeding", "On The Road" and "Goodbyes"

    Post Malone's most boring album yet and it isn't close. Each song sounds incredibly similar to the next aside from the singles that had already been out months in advance. The only song I thought Post stood out on was "Goodbyes" and aside from that track I believe the features outshined him a lot.

    More well-executed than his previous releases and undeniably catchy, Hollywood's Bleeding is a huge step forward for the guarded superstar, one that doesn't sacrifice the essential elements that made him such a surprise hitmaker, and pushes him even further into the pop-savvy landscape where he belongs.

    Even when he is stretching the boundaries of his sound, as he does in several places on “Hollywood’s Bleeding,” the results feel the opposite of experimental. When you’re an omnivore taking a mortar and pestle to six decades of pop music history and turning it into a smooth slurry, it’s nigh impossible to shock. ... Whatever someone might be hoping to find is in there somewhere. Post Malone is emotional tofu, a skill, not an accident. ... His ambiguity is of an elevated, refined sort.

    It will be a surprise to learn which tracks aren’t singles yet; there’s at least five more hits to be spawned from this thing, and we’ll never hear the end of it.
