I had no clue Freddie Gibbs had an album on the way… Matter of fact, I had no clue he can look like the 2018 version of Jeffrey from Fresh Prince of Bel Air either (Peep the album artwork above). Both aspects shouldn’t have any bearing on what the album is going to sound like, right? (more…)
Quincy is the creator of Ratings Game Music. He loves writing about music, taking long walks on beaches, and spaghetti that fights him back.
A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie links up with artists from all over the globe on "International Artist."
I couldn’t wait to give No Shame a listen after the release of the single “Trigger Bang.” UK artist Lily Allen took her time perfecting this project and if the first single is any indication, then we’re in for a musical treat! (more…)
With the release of "4275," Jacquees formally introduces himself to the world
Nas isn't on my top 5 rappers list of all time. No shade towards Nas or anything, but I just have a few guys ahead of him at this time…
Jay Rock is a viable third option for TDE and their label. He doesn’t quite have the appeal Kendrick Lamar has, and isn’t as demented as ScHoolBoy Q is —…
Back in 2005, you couldn't find a bigger Ne-Yo fan than me. I thought his debut album was practically flawless, featuring good writing, catchy hooks and real authentic content. Since…
Besides being my baby, Jorja Smith has accomplished quite a bit in a small amount of time. In 2017, she managed to have a breakout performance on Drake’s “More Life” playlist, and in early 2018, had a phenomenal feature on Kendrick Lamar’s “Black Panther” soundtrack. Today, she tries to prove to the world that she is more than capable of flying solo, dropping this twelve track EP called “Lost & Found.”

Kendrick Lamar made me a believer in a specific artist serving as the central figure to a soundtrack. I feel like when this happens, you get consistency as opposed to…
Is there any other up and coming artist that is harder to figure out than Wifisfuneral? Not only is his name f**king hard to comprehend, but his musical direction is…
Another week, another major Kanye West produced project. The latest episode features two of my favorite artists in Kid Cudi and West, so trust that I’m excited about it. Interestingly enough, this collaboration was very close to not happening… Just a few years ago, the two midwest legends had a bit of a falling out while they were both going through a few things in their personal lives. Since then, they’ve reunited, and promised to have as good a music relationship as they ever had. With all that being said, I guess the major question to ask is what do I think this album is going to sound like? I say a smidge of cockiness, a good amount of infectious melodies, and lots of craziness! (more…)

I know it seems pretty cruel, but any type of publicity is good publicity -- even if that means getting shot at in New York. Well that's what Chief Keef…
