Before Nov 2020, grades range from 5 stars to 3.5 stars. After that, grade range is: 10 (A+), 9.5 (high A), 9 (A), 8.5 (high A-), 8 (A-), 7.5 (high B+), 7 (B+). Ungraded albums are honorable mention :-), neutral :-|, negative :-(. At least 3 listens per album. Search "Grade Post" for more info. [I shelved/sold 10,000-12,000 albums before starting this blog and will add entries for some of those as they come up. If you don't see an album, it doesn't mean I don't know it.]

Various Artists - BLNRB: Welcome to the Madhouse: 3.5 stars
Perhaps I should have done this as a batch review, with Urban Africa Club and Black Stars: Ghana's Hiplife Generation, because I made a batch buying decision. They are all strong at B+, perhaps even A-, but they tend not to stick with you so I went with the lower grade. Anyway, I can't accept having one of these releases (all German import compilations on Out Here Records) at B+ without the other two, and I can't get all three at a reasonable price, so I will end up with none.
