Album Review: Blackshady's Age of Black

Hey wassup, it's time for another album review. This time however, the album is mine. Originally supposed to be a video album for YouTube(yes I did make some of these tracks). I never finished it but If I had well....let's see....pay attention cause I will likely choose to do my reviews more in depth like this in the future for your favorite artists...

Blackshady is a ** year old rapper hailing from Virginia, and this is his first solo work. Age of Black is a mixtape style album where he takes beats from already established rap songs and goes in on them. The first track is called (The Wait Is) Over where Blackshady spits on Drake's Over beat.
He spits,

One thing bout Rap when I hear I feel no pain
Like Im straight up insane
Like these gurls wanna give me brain
They say they love me,
I kno betta than that its just game
They wanna fuck me,
And I’m ready for dat
I aint gotta wife and it’s a shame

After that the album pays ode to Jay-z's Take Over song.....Things get interesting.

I told u I come to take the game
Im not Akon but I got the fame
Ya gurl gimme the brain
I thought she was ya dame
I rap all sillieeeee
Like lil wayne on a millie
U an me beeefin really is silly
Im a rapper u just play wit ya willie

The song is as cruel as it is funny.....then theres' Troublesome 2006 an ode to Pac, but this song is very very dark and personal. I can't post the lyrics, you'll just have to hear it for yourself. Somethin about conspiracies, lying women, and biblical prophecies all in one song.

There were other songs here, but most, eh most seemed like filler. There's love tracks, beef tracks, and a track dedicated to how expensive apple stuff is to buy. Then there's Big Cuzn, where Black raps over Kanye's Big Brother. It's the album's last song, and arguably the best.


We used to hang out at as kids
And be at each other’s cribs
He watched BET, with me
I was like who’s Jay-z
He let me bump Missy
The memory stays wit me
We not so close but then
I still wanna be like my Big Cuzin
Aint seen em in like 7 years
Almost brings me to tears

Well the album was good. The delivery of the rapper could improve. He has a hard time staying on the stellar beats. However this is a good album/mixtape...whatever.
The verdict: 8.0/10 suck it

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

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

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...
