    Fan of a Fan reads like a mimicking of that, missing a key ingredient in the Pop-Rap alchemy it takes to create something truly ingenius and infectious.

    Chris Brown and Tyga have given fans what they wanted, but with an abundance of turn-up tracks, the album fails to tackle more serious topics, as the duo has in the past on “Deuces.” It’s a wonder why they avoided the prior formula this go round.

    Ultimately, this is likely to satisfy only the most devout sects of Brown's and Tyga's fan bases.

    Fan of a Fan has its share of low-end R&B bangers.

    Overwrought with rap cliches, Fan of a Fan is a formulaic heaping of bouncy bangers primed for the strip clubs that likely inspired it. There isn't much here, besides expletive-filled musings on sex, drugs, cars, money and dangerous misogyny.

    Chilled summer anthem 'Westside' to club banger 'Banjo', the album is filled with tracks about partying, sex and hustling in the club. OverallChilled summer anthem 'Westside' to club banger 'Banjo', the album is filled with tracks about partying, sex and hustling in the club. Overall its a very decent album and I would score it 8 because although the tracks are club bangers, there was not any real depth in the album which is where it lost a few points. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Fan of a Fan: The Album was created entirely as a result of the collaboration between Chris Brown and Tyga. Being their first time recording a full album together it has received mostly positive reviews. From "Lights Out" a slowed down track with distored Samples and a hard base to "Ayo,” a high tempo track. The album shows the diversity of their music with transitions from straight hip hop to R&B. The lyrical content for a majority of the album's songs pertains to girls and money, which are both relatable topics but are frequently used as themes in much of popular music. I would've liked to have heard a little more R&B, because the album was lacking that. I give it a 8/10. Expand

    When this album was available for pre-order on iTunes, I was anticipating it. I liked "Ayo", but then I pre-ordered the album and heardWhen this album was available for pre-order on iTunes, I was anticipating it. I liked "Ayo", but then I pre-ordered the album and heard "B****es n M*******a" and worried about the rest of the album's production because the song sounded exactly like "Ayo". I knew it wasn't going to be lyrical, based on what I already know about Chris Brown and Tyga, but when I pre-ordered the album I had no idea the production was going to be as repetitive as it was. Almost every song on this album was produced by DJ Mustard, Nic Nac, or other producers that copy their style. Normally I like DJ Mustard's production but when you have an album that makes use of his sound for almost every song, you might as well want to turn the CD off after the fourth or fifth track. And that's exactly what this album is. And the lyrics don't help matters at all. This album currently has the worst album Metascore of 2015 and I hope it doesn't end up that way by the end of the year because there are some good things about this record, like "D.G.I.F.U." and "It's Yo S***". Grade: C. Highlights: "D.G.I.F.U.", "It's Yo S***", "Banjo". Worst songs: All of the songs that take DJ Mustard's sound and spread it across the entire album. Expand

    This lackluster album is not at all impressive. The songs lack diversity, quality lyrics, and exciting beats, leaving the listener wonderingThis lackluster album is not at all impressive. The songs lack diversity, quality lyrics, and exciting beats, leaving the listener wondering when it'll all be over with. Not only is this album a low quality compilation of songs that do not have any meaningful substance to them, but they aren't even enjoyable to listen to at all. Try again guys. Expand
