Track by Track Review(for those of u wanting more) Kanye West-The Life of Pablo

Kanye West: The Life of Pablo
Track by Track Review
Ultralightbeam-This is an excellent opening track. It’s a gospel rap hybrid featuring Chance the Rapper and Kirk Franklin. The beat is nice too….Epic win. 9.5/10
Father Stretch My Hands Pt.1- The first part of a 2 part song. The first is better with an awesome hook from Kid Cudi. 9/10
Father Stretch My Hands Pt.2- Kanye is accompanied by a Future clone, Desiigner. Good lord hes a knock off. Nice song tho. Its more fast paced than part 1. 8.5/10
Famous-Rihanna accompanies Kanye on this banger. Swizz Beatz ad libs it; I’m assuming he did the beat. “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex….i  made that b*tch famous” raps Kanye. The end of the song with the sample is fire. 9.5/10
Feedback-This sounds like a song off of Yeezus. It has a chilling beat, and a choppy flow from Kanye. The end is so funny; I wont spoil it here. 8/10
Low Lights- The gospel theme continues here. This lady just talks the whole time. The beat is cool tho, and Its nice to see Kanye get back to skits. 7/10
High Lights- Okay so u see Young Thug on this track,and think…it’s going to suck ass, but no its hot. Kanye delivers here, even if the punchlines are really silly. I think the Dream is on this song too. 8.5/10
Freestyle 4-This song is fire. It sounds like it could be on Yeezus or the Dark Fantasy beat wise, but lyrically its just silly. However this works for Mr. West and his Future clone Desiigner. 8.5/10
I Love Kanye-Kanye addressed his haters here, even if it is subliminally. 7/10
Waves-This is a majestic sounding song featuring a lot of Chris Brown and not enough Kanye. The beat is fire. 9/10
FML-An interesting song featuring the Weekn’d. It sounds like a 808’s and Heartbreak song..sort of…The album seems to have something for all Kanye fans. 9/10
Real Friends-One of the best songs here. Ty Dolla $ign lends his talents. It’s a mellow song but the verses and hook are strong. 9.5/10
Wolves- A strange and chilling song. The beat is hot but Kanye’s verses don’t really make much sense. The Frank Ocean vesrse at the end is dope .8/10
Silver Surfer Intermission- A stupid interlude. 5.5/10
30 Hours-The first half of this song is dope…but the 2nd half is just Kanye rambling. There should have been a fire verse from 3stacks…ah well. The song is still really moving tho. 9/10
No More Parties in LA-My personal favorite track…NMPiLA is fire. Its got Kendrick Lamar on it. I’ve always wanted to hear the young juggernaut on the track with an all time great. Kanye raps up a storm here. I wonder why he didn’t bring this intensity to other tracks…10/10
Facts- Facts is a nice freestyle track…He sounds like Drake here, but honestly it works. The new beat is pretty dope as well. 8.5/10

Fade-A dope track with Ty again and Post Malone. Its just a classic club sounding song. The beat is so cool. 9/10

Kanye West 2 Part-Post (Revised Top Songs & Album Ranking)

1.       Gold Digger- To be honest, I didn’t like this song the first time I heard it. The beat is so infectious, and the lyrics are so clever, and that hook. Its his best song to date! He raps about a gold digging chick lol. 2.       All Falls Down- Kanye is extremely introspective on this song. The hook and beat make it great. This is ranked so high because it was the song that really propelled him to superstardom in 2004. 3.       Jesus Walks- A controversial song about Jesus being with those in need. Its just plain awesome. But I wouldn’t expect him to make a JW2 lol. Not in a million years. 4.       Can’t Tell Me Nothing- The best song on Graduation is dope. It’s a dark sounding banger. Kanye drops lyrical gems here. The Jeezy sample and the other sample are pure genius. 5.       Power- The aggressive first single to My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy...

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: 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
