Game System Review: Xbox One S

The Xbox One S is a superior system to its predecessor. I really like how its an entertainment media center and also a gaming machine. It also can play 4k Blu Rays…..The Graphics are much improved over the original xbox also. Remember when 720p was the norm for xbox?

Controller wise the Xbox One S is really dope. The controller was redesigned to have access to a headphone jack without any extra add ons. The controller is very comfortable and it has rumble engines in the triggers. Other than that the controller is very similar to the PS4 one accept it doesn’t have  a touchpad or light bar.

Interface wise, as of now, the XBOX is better but, the PS4 makes it easier to share with social networks. The One S does multitask really well however. I have yet to really put it to the test. Broadcasting isn’t quite as easy as a PS4 but its not difficult; neither is accessing the game’s dvr.

Games make and break a system. There are some great exclusives like Gears of War and Halo….but if you’re not a fan of FPS or RPGs you might want to look elsewhere. Or maybe not, since most all games are coming out for both systems these days. However, as of today, the PS4 has better exclusives.

All in all, the Xbox One S is a great system. If you have a Xbox One already, maybe you don’t upgrade, but If you want one go ahead and buy.



The Verdict
Graphics 9.5
Games 7
Features 9
Controllers  9.5
Memory 9
.

Overall: 8.8

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

Nas Albums Worst to Best

20)      Nastradamus (75)- It really shouldn’t be a surprise to see this one ranked so low. The lyricism isn’t abysmal but everything is pretty average. How does a song like “Big Girl” make it to a Nas album?? It’s just a boring album plain and simple….I don’t really have a lot to say about it. 19)          Street’s Disciple (82) -I hate having this one so low. I honestly like a lot of the songs on this double disc. Unfortunately there’s quite a bit of filler here just like with Jay-z’s Blueprint 2. Disc one has hits like “Nazareth Savage”, “American Way”, “ Just a Moment” and “ You Know My Style”. Disc 2 has some heat on it too: “Suicide Bounce”, the title track, “Virgo”, “Bridging the Gap” and “Thiefs Theme”.   18) T he Lost Tapes 2 (86) -This one I admit I haven’t heard that much…but its pretty decent. It gets off to a good start with songs like “Vernon Family” and “Jarreau of Rap (Skatt Attack)”. A lot of these songs are ok….but not muc...

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
