T.I.'s Discography

T.I. Discography T.I. is one of the best dirty south rappers there is. Let’s look at the self proclaimed King of the South’s collection. No Mercy: After releasing one of the dirty south’s best albums, T.I. bombs with No Mercy. He just doesn’t seem like himself except for on a few tracks. The album is mostly emo. He’s down on himself he’s constantly apologizing for his actions which led him back to jail. However as an artist he does make you feel his pain. There are some party joints that are just uninspired and not a lot of fun to listen to. This is probably his worst album. Disc Rank: 7 Paper Trail: I’ve heard a lot of dirty south albums, but Paper Trail is one of the best and it’s TI’s best album. Off the top T.I. showcases his brilliant rhythmic flow with the first 2 songs. Then he talks about him having to go to jail in 2008. Then he hooks up with Ludacris for a good song. After that the hits just keep coming. The only low points of the album are Porn star and

Video Game Blog: God of War 3

I just beat god of war 3 for the 3rd time last night. It was my first time beating it on normal. I must say it was a whole lot harder than the 1st 2 times.....defeating Zeus at the end took a lot of defensive effort. It sucks that only 2/4 of your Weopons work on him. I thought the ending was great except for the scene before u unlock the hope power. It was somewhat long and unnecessary. But anyways it was awesome seeing kratos beat the shit out of Zeus ....so much so that the screen went red. What didn't make sense is after all that Kratos kills himself!!!! It wasn't a good way to end the revenge trilogy

NBA to Rap Volume One

So who do u think your favorite rapper is if they were an NBA player?? I am looking more at style and impact on the game then personality of a nba player or rapper. These are my opinions, that don’t make it fact. 1)       Michael Jordan = 2pac: Theres no denying that it was 2pac that did more for rap then any other rapper, likewise wit MJ to basketball. There’s no denying that they were also the best overall.   MJ did it all. His competitive spirit got him 6 count em 6 championships! 2pac could do it all, from Conscious Rap(Brenda’s got a baby) to beef tracks(Hit Em Up), and songs for the ladies(How do U Want it). This wasn’t an easy choice, but I think the best rapper is MJ of the game. 2)       Bill Russell = Jay-z: Bill Russell has lots of championships…and Jay is a dominant force in the rap game. His albums sell a lot, and he’s got hits…too many to fit in one little paragraph. Ultimately Jay has the most impressive, successful discography, and Bill had 11 titles. Bi

My Thoughts 2012-1st Edition

I'm back in College for what seems to be my 12th semester...yea its hard to believe. I remember when I was a freshman back in 2006. It wasnt very difficult to get aquainted with college life, which at the time consisted of stayin on campus during the week. It was easier to make friends and hang out back then at school. Now I'm back with my original major of history and I'm ready to make the push for the degree. I'm so glad that the NBA got it together...i've been watching as much NBA as I can ever since it started on CHristmas day. My favorite team is the Lakers. Ironically it used to be the Heat, but that was back when it was Shaq and Wade on the team.....I've gotta admit i felt odd during last year's finals. I hate the Mavericks, but I didn't really want the Heat to win either......This season It seems the younger athletic teams will have the best records. Music wise I have completly forgotten about R&B it seems.....I've gotten more into r

The greatest game ever???

CHESS In case you didnt know I play Chess. It is an incredible board game with seemingly limitless depth. I mean the game may start out slow or it may start out fast. The game makes you think about what your opponent will do frequently. The Pieces all play an important role. Pawns are first line of defense. They move up 1 space and attack diagonally 1 space. Pawns are good for backing up pieces...especially bishops. Bishops are diagonal attackers and can be really sneaky. I cant tell you how many times I got a piece taken by a bishop that was just sitting there.>_< ! Knights(Horses) Are my 2nd favorite piece. They move in Ls or 3 spaces in a couple of ways. This makes them very hard to defend against and they can also defend key spots easily. THe rooks or castles as I've heard them be called attack horitzontally or vertically. They are powerful pieces but can't really do much in traffic. The objective of Chess is to protect the 1 piece moving in any direction....we

Rap Regions: Midwest

Midwest Welcome to the Midwest …a rap area that has only recently became noticed within the last 10 or 11 years. Major Cities: Detroit , Chicago , St. Louis Key rapping traits : I think that the Midwest values social consciousness over the usual rap styles of money cash and hoes. This style of rap is very intelligent. If it kid were a kid in high school: It would be the social misfit, the kid who’s maybe a little shy. Major Rappers Kanye West- Kanye is by far one of the most outspoken rappers of all time, kinda like the way rappers used to be back in the day. He says what a lot of people are thinking, he just has the balls to say it. I first heard of Kanye when he did Slow Jamz with Twista in 2003. The song was a big hit, and then I noticed him even more on Through the Wire. It was beautiful song that sampled Chaka Khan, and it was about his near death experience. Since then Mr. West made 3 amazing albums (College Dropout, Late Registration, and then my pers
