Jul 21, 2012Not perfect, but I really like this album. Every song has good replay value and though I'm not usually a pop rap fan at all, this is one of the very few that I did enjoy.

May 6, 2012Great album all around. This could be perceived as "please all" if somebody only thought that people are physically aloud to make different genres. From Castles to Out of My Mind to Arenas this album fails to disappoint

May 6, 2012B.o.B is one of the most diverse, best artists around right now and there isnt a single one that deserves to be mainstream as much as he does. Damn bobby ray done come a mighty long way.

May 4, 2012This is one of the corniest artists in hip-hop, and there are definitely a lot of cornballs. To make things even worse B.o.B. gets other cornballs on this album such as Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, and T.I. This album is what you get when you mix up a bunch of different genres, and the execution of each and every genre is s***.

May 2, 2012The second disaster of this ultra commercial artist. After "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded" this 2012 gives us another reason to throw from the terrace. The production is so boring and mediocre, and the bases produced by Dr. Luke might be good for the ring tones on my Nokia but not for an album charts. After listening two songs of this **** my only wish is: STOP IT!

May 4, 2012i honestly think this is a great album. And it is a modern hip hop album with pop sensibilities. Everybody can listen to. It has strong influences from pop and every song sounds different and fresh. He is not afraid to cross boundaries rappers dont normally do. And his creativity on this album was great. Every song is listenable

May 2, 2012I loved this album from the start. Morgan Freeman created an interesting intro to the album that was the way to start a cd. Each song individually was great, but there were a few parts where songs should have been rearranged to make the album as a whole better.

Jan 6, 2013This is one of the best albums ever! B.o.B showcases his smart lyrics writing with a wide range of creative songs! Some are balled like Where Are You and So Hard To Breath as others are just fun like Strange Clouds and Out of My Mind! This is a unique must buy, and I am shocked with all the negative and mixed reviews!

May 25, 2014Strange Clouds overall is a very strong album with strong tracks (Ray Bands, Where Are You?, Play for Keeps, Bombs Away, Both of Us) but has a few songs, like the title track, that strays too close to generic modern rap/hip-hop, something of which The Adventures of Bobby Ray never did.

Jun 19, 2013Great album from start to finish the only bad point is the album had way to many features and horrible features at that that's the only reason this isn't a 10

The SourceAug 22, 2012Although much of the album is a gumbo of music industry A-listers, there are enough solo gems to show how much more talented than the average Bobby Ray really is. [#252, p.88]
-
Jun 12, 2012The album has no theme and at the end of the day we still don't know who B.o.B. is outside of his affinity for protective eye wear. We just know that he is capable of more than Strange Clouds.
-
May 23, 2012The flow of Strange Clouds tends to vary between songs that are helping make the album great ("So Good," "Arena," "So Hard to Breathe"), and then the ones that keep pushing it down the route of a sophomore slump ("Ray Bands," "Just a Sign," "Play for Keeps"). Right when there's about to be a trend of some consistency, it ends up falling short.
