Songs with a nice production and flow but ruined by its lyrics?

Yeaaah I think I'm going with Big Girl by Nas, it's a really catchy song with dreamy vocals and production that could've possibly had potential to be a radio hit, but the lyrics seem to be obsessed with speaking about >!the fact this girl talked about and sexualized in the song is suddenly an adult; "You're a big girl now", "No more daddy's little girl",!< which just really gives off really creepy >!pedophilic!< lyrics. I love Nas but this is something that just makes me uncomfortable and is entirely unlistenable for me, even if relistening to the album I'm skipping this always regardless.

On the less weird side of things I'd also say this question for me goes for pretty much the whole Total Xanarchy album, I obviously found the whole album to be unlistenable slop when checking it out to see how bad it is but I can't deny all of the production on that album had genuine potential to be bangers if it was given to the right artist instead of Lil Xan of all people.

Artists whose albums started off bad but progressively got better through their discography?

In most cases for a load of artists, it's usually their music started off great but the longer they drag out and make new projects the more bland they become to the point of general unlistenable slop, and I'm curious on which artists actually started off from said unlistenable slop to now every new album is just getting better than the last
