It’s been a busy past few weeks for artist BROCKHAMPTON having released two albums back to back; The Family on the Nov. 17 and TM on Nov. 18.

The artist has a reputation for making songs that are very upbeat and eccentric, and these two albums are nothing short of that.

The Family, the first of the two albums, is a perfect example of this. With a wide range of sounds from heavy synth and bass drops to R&B and trap-influenced beats, the album is one of their most varied yet. The Family is an experimental blend of sounds that showcases BROCKHAMPTON’s creativity and willingness to push the boundaries of popular music.

The other album, TM, is far from their best work, but it’s still an interesting project. It has all the typical elements of the group’s sound, however, there are some uniquely strange and haunting beats. The lyrics are as peculiar as they’ve ever been, but they don’t quite hit the mark like the group’s past projects. While it may be a bit too odd for some of their fans, the album still provides an interesting and unique experience.

For example, tracks like “Take It Back,” “All That,” and “The Ending” offer up a more traditional hip-hop vibe with heavy 808s, bouncy basses, and classic rap flows. “CRUCIFY ME” is another highlight and offers a soulful, dreamy sound with a hint of funk. The albums both offer something unique and it’s clear that BROCKHAMPTON offers up a wide array of sounds and styles. Overall I give both albums a rating of 7/10.
