So I've listened a few times and I'll say that I liked Cowboy Carter more at first listen than I did Renaissance. Ren didn't immediately snatch me because it went over my head and I didn't know which songs were which but there were still quite a few moments/songs that put me in an immediate chokehold at first listen. CC is a good album and very well put-together but it doesn't make me wanna keep going back to listen like Ren did and still does.
