Rap Regions Tournament: West Coast Bracket Round 1

The Game vs. Snoop Dogg:This should be harder than it looks to judge…
Flow-Both these rappers have great flows. TIE
Delivery-While Snoop has good delivery, he’s inconsistent. Game has one of the best deliveries in the game..lol. Game
Albums-Both have some great albums under their belt…but I feel Game’s are better overall. Game
Story-This is hard to judge…so I’m just going to give it to both. TIE.
Legacy-Snoop gets the nod here. As great as Game is, it’s hard to ignore what Snoop has meant to the game…Snoop



The Game wins 4-3

2pac vs. Jay Rock: A legend vs. a talented young MC…
F-2pac is an all around great rapper but Flow wasn’t his greatest attribute. Jay Rock is a potent lyricist…Jay Rock wins this round…
Delivery-Another tough category…Both rappers have really good delivery. TIE
A-Well Jay Rock has only one good album, and Pac has at least 3 or 4. SO Pac.
S- Story telling easily goes to Pac who’s one of the best at it…Pac
L-Are u serious? Pac by a mile…
.

2pac wins 4-2

Kendrick Lamar vs. Ab-Soul: These TDE members face off
F-K.dot is one of the best lyricists in this bracket, but so is Ab-Soul…it’s a tie.
D-Ab has good delivery, but I feel K.dot is more versatile. Kdot.
A-K.dot’s albums have been stellar, while Ab’s first was great, the 2nd not so much. Kdot.
S-K.dot wins this one as well.
L-While Ab is a good rapper, he’s not a great rapper yet….K.dot!

 Dr. Dre vs. Tyler the Creator: These 2 producer/ rappers go at it…

Dr. Dre wins 4-2

Vince Staples vs. Schoolboy Q : This won’t be easy to call.
F-Both rappers have good flows….its a tie.
D-Schoolboy easily. He’s too distinctive while Vince fades into his beats….
A-Vince’s album and mixtape are a bit better than the offerings of SBQ.
S-This is hard to call. Vince and SBQ are good storytellers. Tie.
L-We’re tied here…Legacy wise SBQ is a little more established a little more versatile so he gets the nod.

F-Cube and E have simple flows…it’s a tie.
D-Cube has one of the best deliveries in the game…Cube

Ice Cube wins 5-1

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...
