REVIEW: Lil Wayne “Tha Carter 4”

Review: 3.5/5 Best songs: President Carter, Megaman, Nightmares of the Bottom, It’s Good What a month for hip hop we get the Jay-Z/Kanye Watch The Throne and Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter IV.

REVIEW: Kanye West & Jay-Z “Watch The Throne”

Review: 4.0/5 Best songs: “Ni**as In Paris”, “Who Gon’ Stop Me”, “Murder To Excellence”, “Made In America”, “Illest Motherf*cker Alive”, “H.A.M.” I usually like to listen to an album for at least a week and even as much as three weeks before I review it. But since I’ve been playing Watch The Throne straight since […]

REVIEW: Big Sean “Finally Famous”

Review: 3/5 Best songs: “I Do It”, “Marvin & Chardonnay” Big Sean’s playful delivery and “out of the box” punchlines save this soulless album from being a complete disaster. 1. “Intro” (Produced by Kevin Randolph, Key Wane) First problem is an “intro” called “intro”, second problem it’s way too short at a minute and 14.

REVIEW: Maybach Music Group “Self Made Vol. 1”

Review: 2/5 Best songs: “Tupac Back”, “I’m a Boss”, “Play Your Part” You know exactly what your getting into when you listen a group project from a group with “Maybach” in their name headed up by Rick Ross.

He seems withdrawn and even cynical about the whole process and more concerned with making […]

REVIEW: Drake “Thank Me Later”

Review: 3.8/5 Best songs: “Fireworks”, “Over”, “Up All Night”, “Unforgettable”, “Light Up”, “Miss Me”, “Find Your Love”, “Thank Me Now” Who would have ever thought a half-Jewish-child-actor-from-Canada would become the coolest kid in hip hop’s high school? I know I did. So after releasing last years critically acclaimed So Far Gone mixtape, expectations are high […]

Review: 4.5/5 Executive Produced by: Dj Premier Best songs: “New Money”, “Count For Nothing”, “Soldier”, “Something 2 Ride 2”, “Shake This”, “Gangsta”, “Mine In Thiz”, “Thing For Your Girlfriend”, “Part of Me” I think we’ve found the new and improved Joe Budden, one that still speaks from the heart, has a mean pen game and […]
