Kendrick Lamar – Damn (Album Review)
Kendrick is 3/3, guys.

When you look up the word ‘Underrated’, Joey Bada$$’s name will come up in big bold letters in the dictionary. We talk so much about the Cole’s of the world, the Kendrick’s of the world, but I think Joey can hold his own when you do comparisons with them. Overall, I think this new album titled ‘ALL-AMERIKKKAN BADA$$’ will show us all that Joey is more than just a dude with a curse word in his name – he’s a dude with a curse word in his name capable of spitting deep knowledge.

You know what frustrates me the most about Kodak Black? I can see his talent, I can see his love for music, but for some reason he just can’t stay out of trouble (Sorta reminds me of a young Gucci Mane). Luckily, we are treated to this debut album before he does something stupid again that is going to get him locked up.
So why am I excited for this debut? Not only do I want to hear his unique style of music, but I am also excited to hear why he has such a gutter mentality. (more…)

Can I go ahead and state the obvious? R&B music like Trey’s has been a bit underappreciated by the masses as of late. It seems like nowadays everybody sings, and for some backwards reason the masses are gravitating towards the rappers that sing as opposed to the singers that sing. With this new album by Trey Songz coming out, maybe that taste the world once had for good R&B music will return. (more…)

BY POPULAR DEMAND, I am reviewing GoldLink’s “At What Cost” album! You guys know I usually tweet out if I think a project is dope or not, and save the details for the review; I did not do so this time around, instead, I took to Twitter and simply said: “I have a few things to say about this GoldLink project” and left it at that. It’s been about a month now, so it’s time to speak up. I will not sugar coat shit here, and I will not say what you guys want me to say about this album; with that being said, I’ve always thought GoldLink was dope and had potential, but now I STRONGLY BELIEVE he could be something serious and is here to stay and shake up the game forever.
I’m not gonna sit up here and act like I knew who Nav was before I rated this album, he is a completely new face to me. Shortly before he released this debut album called ‘NAV’, The Weeknd gave him a pretty big endorsement, which nowadays is usually enough to garner a buzz big enough for me to rate an artist; So will he do enough to impress the bandit that he is here to stay?

Future pulled a Nelly from 2004 by dropping his version of ‘Sweat’ & ‘Suit’ this week. For the generation Kylies of the world that was still in their diapers when ‘Sweat’ and ‘Suit’ came out, it was two different albums that Nelly released with one being mainly club records, and the other being toned down sophisticated records. I think majority of the people liked ‘Suit’ over ‘Sweat’, meaning that ‘HNDRXX’ might be the more impressive one. (more…)

Is it fair to say that Fat Joe and Remy Ma are the closest thing to Kim and Big in todays hip hop? With Fat Joe being such a polished veteran in the game, he is able to provide this star appeal that translates well into major club hits – Remy Ma is a bit more street than Joe, bringing this gutter MC sound; when you combine the two styles, you should be excited as a hip hop fan for this album.

You know the albums I find the funnest to rate? The ones that can literally go in any direction, and I figure that this album will be just that! Jidenna raps, he sings, he experiments, which can definitely make for a dynamic listen! (more…)

Did you guys know that at one time Lupe Fiasco was my favorite rapper in the game? This was around the time he released both ‘The Cool’, and ‘Food & liquor’. It seems like since then he hasn’t been able to find that same magic, which has now made him drop on my list. His impact from his first two albums were so good that I still get excited for every new release, which means I’ll still rate this album. (more…)

After all the social media gaffes, flings, and bad haircuts, the one reason we should really know who Kehlani is has finally emerged, and that is her music! You cannot deny that Kehlani is talented, as to me, she has this style that is reminiscent of some of our favorite R&B artists of the past – the twist is that she adds this 2017 honesty to this sound, making it feel modern. Her style is very unique, which is why I expect something special from her on this debut album. (more…)
