Download Mp3 Search Full Album

The Search is the fourth studio album by American rapper NF. It was released on July 26, 2019, through NF Real Music and Caroline,[2] and was preceded by the singles "Why", "The Search", "When I Grow Up" and "Time".[3] It features a sole collaboration with Sasha Sloan. NF embarked on a North American tour in September and October 2019 in support of the album.[2] Despite receiving mixed reviews from music critics, the album debuted atop the Billboard 200, becoming NF's second US No. 1 album. It serves as a follow-up to his 2017 album Perception (2017).

At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album has an average score of 58 based on 6 reviews, indicating "mixed or average reviews". Writing for Pitchfork, Evan Rytlewski described the album as inducing a feeling of powerlessness and questioned how listeners "are supposed to respond to an album that often reads like a suicide note". Rytlewski wrote that NF "spends much of The Search darting in and out of an overbearing rappity-rap snarl-yell" and called his "struggles with mental illness [...] life-threatening", concluding that the album is an "unpleasant ride".[8] Jon Caramanica was more sympathetic in his assessment for The New York Times, considering NF an "objectively strong rapper". However, he described the record as "alternately thrilling and draining" as well as "sometimes vigorous, sometimes exhausting", likening the listening experience to "living inside a snare drum during a marching band's halftime performance", and was critical of the lack of musical and lyrical variation on it.[10][11] Chris DeVille of Stereogum wrote that while "the album's gothic heaviness sometimes suffocates its considerable pop acumen", its theme of struggle against mental health makes it "easy to see why legions of hurting kids gravitate to this music, especially those who reject the nihilism and hopelessness that defines many similar alternatives".[12]

The Search was initially predicted to debut at No. 2 on the US Billboard 200 with 95,000 album-equivalent units, 15,000 units behind Chance the Rapper's debut studio album The Big Day.[13] The Search instead debuted at No. 1 with a larger-than-expected 130,000 units, 22,000 more than Chance the Rapper's album despite its extensive promotion and advantage in the area of streaming. 84,000 of these came from album sales. Its commercial success was aided by strong sales through the iTunes Store, merchandise and bundles through the rapper's web store as well as concert ticket/album sale redemption offers.[14][15][16][17]

The Reminiscence Bump is generally regarded as music you listened to in your earlier teen years, from 13-16, corresponding to high school for most of us. That puts my Bump from about 1966 to 1969. Those were very good years to have The Bump. During those years, these pivotal albums came out, in this order:

The Neptunes are the reigning kings of beat-branding. Throughout their best-known tracks-- from "Superthug" to "Southern Hospitality"-- some elements have remained more or less constant: the bass sound, a gritty, ultimately recyclable sample, and the off-time kick/snare combination that seemed revitalize hip-hop for a minute. But that minute has lasted two years, and the same sounds now cross the board from Britney Spears to Limp Bizkit. Shit is getting ugly, and N.E.R.D. is the truest testament to this fact. Quoth the Neptunes: "In Search Of... seems like a bland title, but for us, it's In search of love. In search of happiness. In search of smiling. In search of that bitch with the big ass. In search of the answer to why my brother smokes crack. It's all of that; it's about being open."

In Search Of... joins Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo (the Neptunes) with hometown friend Shay. (That hometown, incidentally, is the same Virginia area that brought up Timbaland, Missy Elliott, and Teddy Riley.) This album conceivably brings the group back to their "roots," which, in a letter written by Pharrell on the group's website, heavily emphasizes the AC/DC side of things.

The album has had a relatively tumultuous history-- especially over the last few months-- with a domestic release date pushed back by the Neptunes' decision to re-record the album with the help of some live instrumentation. Over a year ago, the original version of the album was released and garnered exactly no glowing reviews (with the exception of a positive write-up in Rolling Stone). Whether or not this was the incentive for the group to re-record is unclear. The result, however, is an album's worth of hot-to-death Neptunes hooks and bass sounds tainted with the despicable addition of rap-metal drumming and distorted guitar posturing.

To backtrack a bit, when the "original" album came out about a year ago, the first single was the "BET Uncut Video"-worthy "Lapdance," which promised to fulfill Pharrell's promised prophecies of hip-hop as revolution via chorus lines like, "The politicians are lookin' like to strippers to me." See, Pharrell has been talking a lot of shit since the Neptunes began to get some serious props, stressing that doing a beat for Jay-Z was a way of "getting their message out" to the masses.

But somewhere between "I Jus Wanna Luv U" and "Pass the Courvoisier," signals got crossed. Pharrell, Chad and Shay took the drum tracks off most of the album, and added a drummer who could easily have cut his teeth in a Slipknot cover band. While Rap-Metal 101 drums bang away in the background, the basslines are replaced by chugging guitar riffs reminiscent of your high school hardcore band. What remains, though, is the exceptional quality of Pharrell's voice, which, unlike the bass sound, doesn't lose its intensity due to repeated radio exposure. The lyrics here are mostly decent, too, with the exception of "Brain," which, before it was re-recorded sounded clever, and now sounds like a frat house anthem. "Provider" hints at the fact that were Pharrell and Chad born twelve years ago, they'd be bumping this album along with Kid Rock's Cocky.

One of the greatest benefits of being multi-million dollar producers is having access to recording equipment that will make your sounds even more super-flawless. This, coupled with the Neptunes' five years of hitmaking experience, make for a "well-produced" album, which generally doesn't mean shit to me. Chalk it up to an oversight on the part of N.E.R.D. And their acronym speaks the truth, and No one Ever Really Dies, maybe we'll get our hands on a third, less compromised version of the album, where the drummer has been fired and the guitar is being used to prop up the reconstituted drum machines.

I've been running iTunes on a PC for closed to 20 years. It USED to automatically add the artwork to almost any CD I imported. Now it never does. It won't find artwork for albums also sold on the iTunes store, and won't even find artwork for songs I've BOUGHT from iTunes. There is no longer even an option in Settings to "Automatically add Album Artwork" when importing songs. What gives? Do I now have to chase down every album cover artwork on the internet individually?

One reason why the change may not have been noticed is because there's less demand for the feature. After all, if you're going to add a CD to iTunes, why buy the CD? The last time I bought a new CD from Amazon, it was made available to me as a digital download before the CD arrived at my house. Although I buy second hand CDs, whenever I import them into iTunes I simply accept that iTunes fails to find the artwork and I get it myself and paste it into the album.

Regarding the fact that the artwork for albums sold in the iTunes Store is not found for a CD, that's because iTunes gets information (including the artwork) about a CD from a third-party database, which is completely separate to the digital format music sold on the store. There is no connection between the two sources.

In the meantime, the obvious thing to do is simply get a copy of the album cover online and paste it into the album. I use pictures that are between 300x300 and 600x600 pixels. If you use an image that's too large, it won't work correctly, particularly once copied to an iPod.

Unfortunately, in their wisdom, Apple has made adding artwork non-intuitive, but that doesn't mean it isn't possible. In your iTunes Library, select all the songs on an album and click on Edit/Get Info (or use CTRL+I) to open up the edit album dialogue. Answer Yes to the question "are you sure you wish to edit information for multiple items" which will open the dialogue on the Details tab. Select the Artwork tab: 006ab0faaa
