Drake's NWTS Track by Track Review

Nothing Was the Same
Tuscan Leather- The intro is long, and Drake knows it. The beat changes up here and there. It’s a great opener. Drake immediately shows he is going to deliver a better album than Take Care or TML.
9/10


Furthest Thing- One of my least favorite songs, but it isn’t bad. The beat is hot and Drake does his singing thang.
8/10

Started From the Bottom-Drake loves to keep that 3rd track the banger track. Its not really one of the better songs but its catchy as hell. Drake says he came from the struggle but im not sure this song gets the message across. The only other thing is I wish this song was longer.
9/10

Wu-Tang Forever- A really dope song. WTF…(Hmm yea I’m abbreviating the title) doesn’t really have much to do with WU Tang Clan but it’s a different look for Drake. He continues the aggressive raps, but he effortlessly mixes that with singing.
9/10

Own It- This song comes right after WTF and that’s appropriate. It’s a slow song which feels like it could be off Take Care, but that’s not a complaint. “Next time we f*** I don’t wanna f*** I wanna make love” sings Drizzy.
8.5/10

Worst Behavior- Drake, for no reason at all gets tough again. He seems pissed on this song. Honestly if I had heard this in 2010 (Or 2011) I’d be like who is that rapping.
9.5/10

From Time- The first guest spot on the album goes to Jhene AIko. Man her voice is just so so so sexy! The song is right up Drake’s alley.
8.5/10

Hold On, We’re Going Home- The successor to Find Your Love is well, imo better than that. I relate the two songs cause Drizzy sings on the entire track. This is executed a little more flawlessly than FYL. As of right now I still haven’t seen the video though….
10/10

Connect-This where the album gets kinda mellow, and slow. But wait that is right up Drake’s alley. It’s good, I really like the use of the sample.
8.5/10

The Language-Drake is dissing again. This song is pretty creative. My only complaint…well Birdman drops in, I’m assuming to add flavor, but this song needs no more flavor lol.
8.5/10

305 to My City-The worst song on the album. It just doesn’t seem that smooth. I wont say its completely skippable, but you might as well.
6.5/10

Too Much- This is an incredibly soulful song. In fact I’d say its one of the smoother ones I’ve ever heard. The beat is on point. Drizzy is on point. “Like a potluck, u need to come wit it”.
9/10

Pound Cake/Paris Morton Music 2-This is one dope song. In fact it’s the dopest up here for the most part. Jay-z assists Drake again, and his verse is fire. PC is just so tight. PMM2 isnt bad either. Put them together great rap track!
10/10

Come Thru-This is a good song, but it doesn’t really stand out on this album. It’s still very good.
8/10

All Me-Drake is joined by 2 Chainz and Big Sean(2 artists I like a lot more than when they first came out.) This song is good but it’s not really about nothing. Big Sean also raps aggressively lol. (H** shut the f*** up) raps Big Sean.
8.5/10

The Motion-
Another good song, but sadly it doesn’t end the album triumphantly…I know it’s a bonus track but ….its decent.
8/10

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...
