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: 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...

My Top Video Games of all time

I've done plenty of music lists, so i think its time to pay homage to my top video games of all time. I'm only going to mention games i've played. So, if a game you like is not up here(which I guarantee a few wont be) let me know. Lets get into it.... 1)       The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time- I have praised this game so many times, and it’s all well deserved. Ocarina has great controls and the graphics were nice at the time. I really love the story, and how the game is paced. You do a side quest of some kind, which generally isn’t long, then you go to a dungeon, get an item, use that item to get further in the dungeon, then beat the boss. Ocarina is, the best Zelda, and as of right now I don’t think that’s up for discussion. There are some really good Zelda games though such as Wind Waker, ALTTP(which made my list), and some others. 2)       Final Fantasy X- Final Fantasy X….is the only FF I’ve beaten, and I’ve played F...
