Critic Reviews
Show All-
Pitchfork
-features a few inarguable pop hits, but Post Malone’s singular, dour mood wears thin and grows stale after too long.
-
Rolling Stone
a Flexing, Partying, Rich-Sad Bummer. The rock-star rapper indulges his self-pity and sometimes transcends it.
-
NME
The 22-year-old singer makes the rockstar lifestyle sound beige on this directionless second album.
-
Consequence of Sound
Too many bland regurgitations of current trends and not enough originality.
-
SPIN
By no stretch of the imagination is Beerbongs & Bentleys a good album, but it’s admirable in its commitment to its strangely singular dirtbag vision of L.A. luxury.
-
Highsnobiety
Post Malone's 'beerbongs & bentleys' is a tough, weary listen.
-
billboard
It's a celebration of being young, famous and fantastically wealthy, with an undercurrent of heartbreak casting a pall on the artist's superficial prosperity.
-
DJ Booth
-his sophomore opus puts more emphasis on diversity, but the earnest attempts at inventive ideas fall short of their intent.
-
Hot New Hip Hop
The two initial offerings, “Rockstar” and “Psycho” were honest descriptors of the album ahead of time, and measure up as imperfect models of consistency.
-
The Guardian
-pop-rap titan has hooks but no lines.
-
DBK Music
-the various record-breaking debut of Malone's latest album positions the artist as a titan of the Hip-Pop industry.
-
Vanity Fair
It succeeds because the album is pleasingly bonkers—funny and unexpected, but undergirded by skill and emotion.
-
Black Squirrel Radio
Although that may hint at a lot of upbeat rap, the album has its fair share of slow, heart-filled anthems.
-
Sputnik Music
Following delays and intense hype, Post Malone's sophomore LP delivers some of his best and worst material yet.
-
All Music
-an apt reflection of his lavish lifestyle and his subsequently begotten hardships, but its attempts at sincerity work only when Post Malone stops trying so hard.
-
The Daily Californian
-a mix of ethereal bops, acoustic tearjerkers, and upbeat party tracks
-
The Sage
He completely exceeded my expectations.
-
Pure Grain Audio
Post Malone has somehow managed to create a listenable recording with way more sounds and songs than before.
-
The Booster Redux
This album met the astronomical expectations I placed on it prior to its release.
-
Daily Emerald

-
The Rating Game
-he shows some good passion on those kind of records, and comes across as both authentic and relatable.
-
Valley Ventana
This album prompts Post Malone’s true ability as an artist.
-
The Statesman
People could think that these aspects might not gel together, but Malone has found his niche and has continued to build his sound around it.
-
The Wessex Wire
-he filled our ears with 18 songs and 64 minutes of catchy fun and almost tear-jerking music.
-
Beat
I feel like he really took his time with this one and gave us something amazing.
-
The DM Online
Though he’s solidified himself in the industry, the weak lyrics on “beerbongs & bentleys” show that he might have to prove himself a little harder to fans.
-
The Times
-coustic drippiness and druggy torpor, this bland and plodding 18-track meander
-
The Nevada Sagebrush
The album has no direction or vision.
-
Melodic Magazine
-much more polished than Post Malone’s debut Stoney
-
Hip Hop N More
Beerbongs & Bentleys proves that he doesn’t have it all figured out, but it doesn’t really matter because everyone’s going to listen while he does.
-
Cliche
heavily inundated with a “I do drugs, I have money and I’m sad” theme.
-
The Musical Hype
-an enjoyable, if excessively lengthy sophomore album
-
The Line Of Best Fit
There’s the reek of corporate about him. He’s clearly a product.

Hopkins RP

KMM Reviews
no imagination or personality

Eccentric
The album blazons his trademark style while growing in a new direction.
-
Amino

-
Kevin's Album Reviews
I would not listen to the entire album again
-
The Fresh Committee
This tracklist is far too bloated to warrant any kind of greatness, despite rampant fan acclaim.
-
arena
-is too long, to dumb and too much of the same.
-
ISU Student Media
The overall mood of the album is chill hype vibes.
-
PN Online
-a bit overhyped and not worth the wait.
-
Stack
-you’ll be hard-pressed to find any track that doesn’t make a real impression.
-
Stereogum
He is an unstoppable force.
-
Reverbium
Overall, while not being as much of a ‘hit’ as his Debut, ‘beerbongs & bentley’ is certainly no miss. Featuring some of the best work Post Malone has produced, despite slight feelings of repetition.
-
Rap Reviews
while he’s seemingly out there hitting notes at random, in reality he has a keen sense for catchiness.
-
Daily Emerald
“Beerbongs and Bentleys” is a set of tracks perfect for late-nights of fun and parties.
-
TFC
This tracklist is far too bloated to warrant any kind of greatness, despite rampant fan acclaim. Though going platinum in 14 hours* is quite impressive.
-
Verrastro Album Review
The production was nice, the vocals were nice and he did it with very few features. This album isn’t better than “Stoney,”
-
Viberant
Post Malone is a man with obvious talents, it is just a crying shame that he fails to demonstrate all of them on his second album ‘Beerbongs & Bentleys’ which is an hour long barrage of “meh” with the occasional flash of promise.
-
The Edge
Post Malone's second album sparkles at times, but is ultimately packed with a lot of tedious filler
-
XFDR
BEERBONGS is a wild party from start to finish and it’ll definitely be the soundtrack to many summer a 2018 pool party across the United States, but when examining it from a critical standpoint, it may be the year’s biggest flop.
-
RMR
Mostly criticized for his early success as a “one-hit wonder” we hear an upgraded version of White Iverson. Without realizing his melodic country and rock influences, he can hold his own as a solo artist.
-
Exclaim
In this case, this is what this album represents — a focus on a rock-star rapper's lifestyle that's being pushed to the forefront for the public eye to decipher.
-
Complex
Beerbongs and Bentleys is a great listen, despite the void at its center.
-
Dancing Astronaut
With such a diverse sound and style, there is surely a track for everyone on beerbongs and bentleys. Post Malone once again demonstrates that you don’t have to fit into a mold to make it and, that believing in yourself and pursing dreams can go a long way.
-
The Daily Cal
The album covers everything from the luxuries of fame to the dangers of being in the spotlight, and Post’s expression of this celebrity presents a surprisingly introspective take on his sophomore album.
-
Immortal Reviews
Post Malone refines his smooth sound in Beerbongs & Bentleys, taking his beloved sound one step further and innovating more. Every song is unique, making Beerbongs & Bentleys diverse and interesting from start to finish, with surprises all along the way. It's a great step ahead, and definitely shows that he's more than a one trick pony.
-
The High Note
Being fun and honest are two valuable commodities today’s societal influence of Instafame and torching anyone publicly who crosses an imaginary line. Malone excels at showing his vulnerabilities while including all the hiphop bravado that is so enticing.
