My Favorite Artists 2017-Pop Artists (Part 1)

  1.       Britney Spears (1)-It was very close…Brit is an all-time great for sure. Her last album Glory was one of her best albums. She sounds reinvigorated and vibrant.
2.       Justin Bieber (new)-I went back and forth on whether he or miss Spears would get the top spot. Remember this is right now, and JB’s Purpose album is dope af but overall I feel its not all that. I like his past works too….for the most part.
3.       Adele(new)-You may not consider her Pop, but that’s what she is. She has serious vocal ability and I loved 25. 21 is great also!
4.       Taylor Swift (new)-Ayo Taylor..i’m happy for you, ima let you finish…nah…her albums(that I’ve heard) are as good as any album from any artist in Pop on this list for the most part. That alone gets her in the top 3.
5.       Bruno Mars (new)-You know Bruno…I admit he could have been in a top 10 last time…it took him 3 years and a great album, but he is here now!
6.       Lady Gaga (3)-Gaga could have been as high as 3 but I don’t listen to her like I used to, therefore she slides to 5th. Her latest album is really good tho.
7.       Justin Timberlake (2)-JT hasn’t put out an album since 2013…but still there all good going back to 2002. Shoot JT the man. No more needs to be said. He’ll be higher next time after album #5.
8.       Katy Perry (5)-The same problem Katy had last time plagues her this time…However, this time, her album is f***in garbage lol. I’m talkin about Witness of course. Still tho, she’s still one of my favorites.
9.       Fergie (new)-Where the f*** was Fergie last time? She has long been one of my favorites so this spot is well deserved. Her new album is really dope.


*Note*- These aren’t all time list but they are how I feel as of right now in late 2017….
(#s) are for last time’s rankings (2014 list)

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
