DJ Khaled – Father Of Asahd (Album Review)

1558065619_0365616a53db4b610b546d10ce873776.jpg

Here are DJ Khaled’s most famous catchphrases: “Another One,” “Major Keys,” “Big Bag Alert,” “Special Cloth Alert,” “LISSSSTEN,””Bless Up,” and my favorite, “Father of Asahd!” While each catchphrase is pretty comical, the last one seems to indicate that there is something Khaled thinks is bigger than he is walking this planet. With that being said, this album is called “Father Of Asahd,” so I expect the chubby DJ’s best music to-date on it. (more…)

Ciara – Beauty Marks (Album Review)

capture.jpg

There’s some people in this world that simply can’t catch a break from fans; Ciara is one of them. I’ve always liked the music she’s been able to make, but for some reason, it seems like she doesn’t get the publicity she deserves. In “Beauty Marks,” I predict all that changing, as the Atlanta native was able to deliver a body of work that is free, fun and empowering for individuals like herself. (more…)

Logic – Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind (Album Review)

capture.jpg

Logic’s ascension from really good underground rapper to one of the hottest artists in the game has been quick and deserving. In the last three years, he has dropped five major projects, with three of them being actual studio albums. While some would think such a feat will result in watered down music, instead, what you get from the Gaithersburg native are tunes that never let up when it comes to impact. In “Confessions of a Dangerous Mind,” one of his latest studio albums, Logic pieces together a body of work that is enjoyable to listen to, but also pretty meaningful. (more…)

PnB Rock – Trapstar Turnt Popstar (Album Review)

I wouldn’t necessarily call PnB Rock a popstar, but I get it, he’s come a long way. However, Pnb has yet to release a body of work that has impressed me. In “Trapstar Turnt Popstar,” I expect the Pennsylvania singer/rapper to finally find his groove in an industry that is catered for him to dominate (S**t, he sounds like Ty Dolla $ign, so why can’t he dominate hip-hop like Ty does, too?). (more…)

blackbear – ANONYMOUS (Album Review)

Capture

blackbear is such an intriguing artist. Musically, he straddles the line between pop and hip-hop quite a bit, and content-wise, he pours his heart out just as much as he speaks about some braggadocios s**t. In “ANONYMOUS,” his latest effort, the “do re mi” singer only pours his heart out, giving us a body of work that I truly believe will bring a tear to your eyes.” (more…)

ScHoolboy Q season is here, folks! After a three year hiatus, the “Blankface” Rapper has decided to release “CrasH Talk” — A fourteen track project that has some really good guest features, legit club bangers, and its fair-share of mobbin’ ass music.  (more…)

I would’ve reviewed this album yesterday, but it was 4/20, so I was high and on the floor of my living room all day yesterday (Just like the guy you see on the picture above… Matter of fact, that’s me in that picture). (more…)

Anderson .Paak – Ventura (Album Review)

capture

Anderson .Paak is the true definition of an artist. I feel like the music he has been able to make in the last 2-3 years has been creative, refreshing and versatile. In .Paak’s previous album, “Oxnard,” I thought he shined brighter than ever, gifting us with everything from hard-hitting rap bangers to soulful gems. In “Ventura,” the album I will be talking about below, .Paak focuses solely on soul, which I expect results in nothing but timeless hits both you and your grandparents can enjoy listening to.

Khalid – Free Spirit (Album Review)

capture

Khalid has never followed anything by the book, instead he’s followed his emotions and heart; this is why I believe he is the most satisfying R&B artist to listen to today. With the release of “Free Spirit,” the El Paso singer/songwriter looks to continue his maturation process as an artist, doing everything he can to reach his peak without forgetting where he came from. (more…)

50 Goliath’s musical journey has taken him to “Journey” — A powerful fourteen track project that excels in everything from passionate bangers to vibrant EDM gems. In other words, 50 Goliath stayed true to his moniker on this album, because he definitely did it mighty.  (more…)
