Critic Reviews
Show All-
Pitchfork
On his so-called R&B album, it’s exceedingly difficult to square the real-life allegations of the Florida rapper with the toxic content of his songs.
-
Hip Hop DX
While this project surely suffers from melodramatic overkill, it remains strong due to its author’s uncompromising honesty.
-
Beat
I can’t imagine anyone playing this for their significant other either. Only Kodak’s ultra-Stans will truly enjoy this album.
-
Verrastro Album Review
There are SO MANY tracks where I feel like Kodak is just not putting in any effort.
-
20 Watts Mag
To the dismay of many fans, his arrogance that got him behind bars also landed him a mediocre (at best) LP.
-
The Top Tens
What we ultimately get is a record that’s not just underwhelming, but that’s simply executed badly.
-
Juice
There are too few indicators, especially with regard to the drama, the song like the half-hearted "Corrupted."
-
Fake for Real
And let's continue celebrating Kodak Black for what he is: a rapist, no doubt, an unpardonable guy, certainly, but also, despite his numerous and uncompromising imperfections, the great rapper of our time.

Gaming Illuminaughty
I know all of the Kodak Black fans will love this one.
-
Blackaphilliyated
Kodak makes it clear he’s not taking that route for this project and instead is giving us his signature raw sound.
-
Salute Mag
That said, this is still VERY much a hip-hop album.
-
Vibe
The mixtape also holds the perfect songs for the love-filled holiday like "Helluva Love" and "Feb 14."
-
Variety
Features smoother grooves and lighter tempos than his usual fare, and his trademark rapping is inflected with bouts of singing.
-
XXL Mag
A project that finds the Florida artist putting his underrated knack for melody to good use.
-
Tawanda Gona
Overall this album isn’t great, but it’s effort is significant. Rap has grown beyond Sex Money Murder, rappers can feel Remorse, Regret and Real Love.
-
Tiny Mix Tapes
I suppose; there’s no other artist about whom I am so conflicted, and Heart Break Kodak is rife with tracks (“When Vultures Cry” and “Loyal” in particular) that make the decision no easier.
-
Hot New Hip hop
Kodak Black remains one of the top-tier of his generation and is increasingly preparing to assume such a level among the entire rap game.
