    1.) Sacrilegious | 3.5 - 4
    2.) There He Go | 4
    3.) Hands On The Wheel (ft. A$AP Rocky) | 5
    - Rocky bodies this. That flow is so easy to get addicted to.
    4.) Sex Drive (ft. Jhene Aiko) | 2 - 2.5
    - HATE this beat. Jhene's part is the lone highlight of this track.
    5.) Oxy Music | 3 - 3.5
    6.) My Hatin' Joint | 4 - 4.5
    7.) Tookie Knows (Interlude) | 3 - 3.25
    8.) Raymond 1969 | 3.25 - 4
    9.) Sexting | 4
    - I like the hook; could be catchy if that song were to blow up (it won't).
    10.) Grooveline Pt. 1 (ft. Dom Kennedy & Curren$y) | 4.5 - 5
    - Lex Luger showing some versatility here. Perfect beat for Curren$y to rip at the end.
    11.) Gangsta In Designer (No Concept) | 3.75 - 4
    12.) How We Feeling | 3.75 - 4
    13.) Druggys Wit Hoes Again (ft. Ab-Soul) | 4 - 4.25
    14.) Nightmare On Figg St. | 4.25 - 5
    - Pretty interesting horrorcore take on "Niggas In Paris".
    15.) My Homie | 3.5 - 4
    16.) Blessed (ft. Kendrick Lamar) | 4.25 - 5
    17.) niggaHs.already.know.davers.flow | 3 - 3.25
    18.) 2 Raw (ft. Jay Rock) | 3.75 - 4

    Overall: 3.65/5

    Brief Notes:
    - I don't think I'll ever become a big fan of Schoolboy Q, but he is entertaining enough. The production styles are all over the place, which leads to a lot of forgettable tracks and the biggest negative that I can pick out is that it seems all of the guest spots outshine Q. But even with all of that, Habits & Contradictions is a solid project that shows Top Dawg Entertainment isn't just made up of Kendrick Lamar and some shmucks.

      1.) Choices | 2 - 2.5
      2.) Jameson | 3.75 - 4
      3.) Alone | 4.75 - 5
      - This is the song that got me into JMSN. Creepy vibe and an even more haunting video.
      4.) Do U Remember The Time | 4 - 4.25
      - Don't like the beginning, but the hook more than makes up for it.
      5.) Somewhere | 2.75 - 3
      6.) Hotel | 3.75 - 4
      - The biggest pop moment of the album.
      7.) Something | 5
      - Great in every sense of the word. The guitar throughout is soothing, the verses are nice and the hook's falsetto is beautiful.
      8.) Fallin | 4
      9.) Love & Pain | 4 - 4.75
      - Oh my God, those saxophones.
      10.) Fire | 3 - 3.5
      11.) Jameson Pt. II | 3 - 3.25
      12.) Runaway | 3 - 3.75
      13.) Girl (I Used To Know) (ft. Boldy James) | 2 - 2.5
      14.) Let U Go | 3
      - The hook's vocals give the feel of a 2000s punk rock song, but maybe it's just me.
      15.) Lights | 3 - 3.25
      16.) Nunca Se Sabra| 3 - 3.5

      Overall: 3.45/5

      Brief Notes:
      - This album starts off really strong and shows the talent of JMSN, but it falls off drastically after "Love & Pain". The last seven songs literally have no redeming qualities to them and just come and go if you listen to the LP in its entirity. Even with that, it's still a nice effort and more impressive than most 3.5 albums considering it was produced by him as well.
