Top Rap Albums of 2015 (1st half)

1.      Lupe Fiasco-Tetsuo & Youth - Lupe’s best album is incredible, varied, complex, yet catchy. The first song contains so many elegant bars its just insane. He will likely get the album of the year.
2.      Kendrick Lamar- To Pimp a Butterfly-A lot can be said about K.dot’s new album. Its different, complex, and thought provoking. While I went back and forth on the rating odds are he will be in the top 3 or 4 albums no matter what albums come out in the 2nd half of the year.
3.      Big Sean-Dark Sky Paradise-The latest offering from Big Sean features a load of great songs. It’s only a tad bit better than Hall of Fame but its one the best albums of the year. I DON’T EFF WIT UUUUU! lol
4.      Tyler, the Creator-Cherry Bomb-Tyler’s new album is a weird one for  him. It’s creative sure, but no horrocore, which I love. Tyler has matured as an artist and made a fun album with A+ production.  The lyrics are distorted tho.
5.      Drake-If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late- Drake’s mixtape/album is better than his debut album, Thank Me Later. It features more rapping than singing ….alot more rapping. The guest list is also minimal. Drake is one of the best rappers of this decade…
6.      Ludacris-Ludaversal-After 5 years we finally got Ludaversal, and it delivers! Its not the most entertaining album content wise but lyrically Luda is still a juggernaut. Grass is Always Greener is a great song.
7.      Raekwon-Fly International Luxurious Art-The chef serves up a good dish after a notable break in releasing albums. This one has a more commercial feel to it than any of his previous albums, but its dope.
8.      Boosie Badazz-Touch Down to Cause Hell- Its good album for L-I-L B-O-O-S-I-E. He’s a good rapper, and I couldn’t say that before I heard this one.
9.      Action Bronson-Mr. Wonderful-Another rapper who I wasn’t so sure about. AB is a great spitter, and he sounds like Ghostface Killah…a lot. Don’t sleep on this white mc.

10.  Tech N9ne-Special Effects- Another dope album from the great Techa Neena. This one might be a shade under All 6s and 7s, but its still very good, if a little lengthy. There’s a huge guest list including Eminem, T.I., and 2 Chainz, and Lil Wayne. This is actually tied with 8 & 9.

Doja Cat Albums Worst to Best

 Doja Cat has been one of my favorite rapper/singers of the past few years. Let's see which albums are the best from her. 5) Amala (88)- Doja’s first album is honestly pretty damn good. You can tell she was still refining her sound tho on this. The last 3 songs “Juicy”, “Tia Tamera”, and “Mooo” are so good. “Candy” is another banger. The album is really well balanced being pretty much good in all areas but not really great in any tho. Favorite Track: Mooo. 4) Scarlet (90)- Believe it or not, this was an album I was on the fence about getting. I’m glad I got it. This is a rap heavy album but there’s still plenty of singing here and there. “Demons” and “F**k the GIrls” are Doja at her roughest. “Attention” was a great single. “Agora Hills” is a nice cute track. The monster single “Paint the Town Red” is the best track however. This album wa a big departure for her, but for the most part it paid off. Fav. Track Paint the Town Red. 3) Vie (92)- This was Doja returning to her pop roots,...

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 ...

Kanye West Albums Ranked (2026 Revision)

16) Vultures 2 (72)- It should be no surprise this album is the worst of the bunch. It just comes off as lazy and uninspired most of the time. The production is decent tho. “Bomb” features Yuno Miles and his daughters: North and Chicago West…..and it's really corny. “Husband” is just god awful. I don’t know what he was going for with that one! “Fried” is pretty dope tho….and you can see the potential of “530”. 15) Donda 2 (75) - I haven’t had a lot of time to sit with this one. It’s not that bad tho…in fact it’s kind of average. I really like “City of God” which features Alicia Keys and Five Foreign. Sure lyrically its not great but the production again isn’t bad. Ultimately I feel like this has little to do with the first Donda album…. 14) 808s and Heartbreak (83) - You may be shocked to see this still near the bottom of his discography. While I bumped the score up a little from last time, I still feel 808’s isn’t all that. I love “Heartless” as it’s probably the best song. “Love...
