Watch the Throne Track by Track by review

Watch the Throne



No Church in the Wild- The album starts off with this dark track. The beat is fire, and the Frank Ocean chorus is hot. The song asks human beings to a mob, what’s a mob to a king, whats a king to a god….and what’s a god to a nonbeliever? After the track you hear this interlude beat that’s pretty laid back. 9/10



Lift Off- Lift Off is a good song, but you can’t help but get the feeling it could have been better. The Beyonce hook is good, but Kanye just sings on it, and Jay’s verse doesn’t really say anything. The beat saves this song and keeps it above average. 8/10




N**gas in Paris- A really addictive song. The title is lame but the song is anything but. Jay and Kanye spit fire. The beat has a mysterious glossy sound to it. The chrorus is really hot too. 9.5/10



Otis- One of the best songs on the album. Otis has a fun sample and its well used. 9.5/10



Gotta Have It- A simple song, but really catchy. Jay and Kanye trade versus quickly. The Throne has delivered so far. 8.5/10



New Day- On this song Kanye and Jay rap to their unborn children. Kanye goes first and raps, “I’ll never let him have an ego”. Jay’s verse is also good. The song has a really cool sample. The chorus just seems to flow rather effortlessly. 9/10



That’s My B**ch- A great party song. The chorus is awesome. I feel this song leans more towards Kanye than a married man like Jay-z. 9/10



Welcome to the Jungle- A swizz beats produced song. The chorus is kinda weak, but the strong verses make up for that. The beat is kind of tense as well. I like how you get to hear the interlude beat again. 8.5/10



Who Gon Stop Me- This is the 2nd best if not best song on the album. Kanye is fierce, and Jay-z holds his own as well. Luxury rap at its finest. The beat aint bad either. 9.5/10



Murder to Excellence- This is a great song. It talks about Black on Black crime. The chorus is hot, and the beat is nice. The song’s beat changes up near the end. 10/10



Made in America- The album’s weakest track isn’t that bad. The chorus is kinda wack, but the beat is cool. This song really grew on me. 7.5/10



Why I Love You- The Finale is dope. Mr. Hudson stops by for the chorus. The song talks about the fall of The Throne….The beat isn’t all that but the lyrics make up for that. 9/10

I give this album 9.25/10

Album Review: Kanye West & Ty Dolla $ign-Vultures 1

 This album review is way overdue. I've had a long time to sit with the album....I really liked it at first but it hasn't really aged as well as other Kanye projects. Kanye's lyricism has taken a noticeable decline. I mean hes not horrible but alot of these bars are bad or tasteless. Ty Dolla $ign on the other hand does a great job on pretty much every track. The production though, as with most Kanye albums is really good.   Some of it was reminiscent of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy or Yeezus. There are a few guest spots and most are well used. Hearing Kanye's daughter, North West, on "Talking"is cute. Freddie Gibbs steals the show on the hilarious "Back to Me". "Carnival" is a certified hit which features Playboi Carti & Rich the Kid. Overall most of these songs are good but I cant say this really adds much to Kanye's illustrious discography. Lyrics 19 Beats 23 Depth 22 Tilt 21 Verdict 85

Album Review: Kid Cudi-Insano (regular version)

 I gotta admit I didn't like this album that much when I first heard it over half a year ago. I've heard that Kid Cudi doesn't exactly play to his strengths....that's partly true. I do like his rapping here tho. Honestly most songs here kinda blend together....."Keep Bouncin'" is really hype....and it gets the album off to a good start. "At The Party" with Pharrell Williams and Travis Scott may be my favorite song. "Wow" with A$AP Rocky is another highlight. Overall tho I feel this album tries too hard to be trendy. Cudi needed to put more of his pain into it. I mean a happy Cudi album isn't a bad thing but it really seems odd to me. You're not getting alot of singing or hums here know what I mean? However the production I found to be very good. Cudi is one of my favorite rappers like top 20 and I guess this will do for 2024. Lyrics 20 Beats 23 Depth 21 Tilt 21 Verdict 85

Video Game Review: Jedi Survivor

 About a week ago or so I beat Star Wars Jedi Survivor. Im so happy I got a chance to play it cause they put it on PS4....yes I sadly as of early 2025 do not have a PS5 yet. But anyways I thought the game was considerable improvement over Jedi Fallen Order in most ways.  The game is set a few years after the end of the first game. One thing I like is you keep all your Jedi techniques from the first game Jedi Fallen Order. You can force push and pull and double jump right from the jump. Early in the game you also get access to a new lighstaber form dual wield. In this game there are 5 lightsaber forms. Single is good in any situation but not the best for ideal situations. I think double bladed has good defense but low range. Dual wield is fast but has low defense. Later on you get access to a blaster form which has great range. Then there's the Cross-guard which is Kylo Ren's lightsaber form...its slow in this game but has high damage and defense to it. The enemy variety in the...
