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 rap again(as you can see from my blogs), but I do enjoy R&B and some Pop. Lady Gaga and the Legendary Britney Spears are 2 of my favorite artists.....I'm a pretty big Justin Timberlake fan too. Rap wise there were some good albums last year but ulltimately 2010 was the best year i've seen for rap in a LONG TIME. Okay maybe since 2008 lol.2008 had numerous really hot albums like Paper Trail by T.I. and LAX by Game, not to mention Untitled by Nas. Last year it seemed like almost every album I heard could have been a little better.

Movie wise I got to see quite a few movies like Priest(ugh),  Thor, Sherlock Holmes, Transformers 3, and Rise of the Planet of the APes. Oh yea, i also saw 2 horror movies with a good friend(INsidious and DOnt be afraid of the Dark. Of course Im giving Transformers gets movie of the year from me. Don't ask why.

That raps up this edition of my thoughts....thanks for reading my blog

Album Review: Schoolboy Q-Blue Lips

 Ok I am a big Schoolboy Q fan. I gotta say I love this album...but believe it or not what kept me from getting it till fall 2024 was that horrendous album artwork lol. I mean damn its gross! Schoolboy has some great flows and lyricism on this album. "Thank god 4 me" is absolute flames. "Blueslides" is another highlight. There's something about the song "first" that is just so catchy to me. "Yern" is also pretty hard man. The guest list is minimal but it works. The production is really good here too. The album isn't quite as good as Blank Face to me but its definitely a major improvement over his last album Crash Talk. Definitely check this one out. Lyrics 24 Beats 23 Depth 23 Tilt 23 Verdict 93

Album Review: Clipse- Let God Sort Em Out

Well I didn't rush this review, I've had some time to sit with this album. It's a hell of a comeback album. Pusha T and Malice are deadly as ever on the mic. The album lyrically is intense. Production is pretty good too but I expected slightly more from an album produced entirely by Pharrell Williams. Speaking of Pharrell, he's all over this album...sometimes not just relegated to a hook. The album gets off to a great start with "The Birds Don't Sing" where both brothers talk about their parents who passed. Pusha T raps about his Mom. Malice about his dad. I really liked the vibe of "All Things Considered"; the The-Dream feature is good. That brings me to the features....like a monster one from Kendrick Lamar on "Chains & Whips". Tyler the Creator does well on "P.O.V.". Nas is on the 2nd last track and he does well too. "M.T.B. T. T. F." is fire, and it stands for Mike Tyson Blow to the Face lol. Ultimately its h...

Tech Review: Iphone Air

 I have only had this phone for over a week but I feel the need to review it. I recently got a 512gb light gold iPhone Air. This phone is so thin. You really have to hold it for yourself to believe it. I knew when I used it at a local Best Buy I had to have it. The phone is also a modern marvel having most of the technology in the camera bump. Of course you're wondering about that camera and battery life.  Honestly the battery is decent. It gets me through the day at work with minimal charging ( I mean who goes somewhere with no charger anymore?). The camera is good too. I'm not a huge camera guy anyways. The phone's 6.5 inch Super Retina XDR OLED display is great. I really notice a difference from my old phone (iPhone 12). The phone doesn't really get that hot either which is great. One thing I'm not a huge fan of is the one speaker on the phone....but honestly it's not that bad. I usually use headphones anyways. Apple Intelligence is still in beta but I think ...
