My Favorite of Albums for 2018

*Note* You wont see some albums here cause I only listed albums I heard, so no Carter V yet.

 Jay Z and Beyonce' (The Carters)-Everything is Love: A terrific album. The chemistry  between the two is incedible. I love how it sounds kind of like the classic albums from the 2002-2007 era. The songs "Nice", "Ape S***"  and "Black Affect" are very good.
5 stars

Logic- Bobby Tarentino II-This one really grew on me. Logic spits that "T**ty rap" and its dope. I love the way he attacks tracks with ferocity on the mic.
4.5 Stars


Kanye West-Ye-This crazy man makes good music! Ye was short and sweet. It sounds kinda like
4 stars


Janelle Monae-Dirty Computer: This was the best album of last year. It hit all the points I look for. I'm so happy Janelle kept us waiting for this masterpiece.
5 Stars

Nas-Nasir- Nasty Nas returned. But not with the rumored Trillmatic. Instead he came with a terrific 7 song album. Songs like "Cop Shot the Kid" and "White label" are dope af.
4.5 Stars

Pusha T-DAYTONA: King Push came with a very strong 7 song album. He disses Drake hard on the last song "Infared". He went hard on this album which honestly doesn't surprise me.
4.5 stars

Nicki Minaj-Queen: Nicki latest album is one of her best. Its varied and inventive. Nicki lets her influences really shine here. I mean like Anime and Old School rap: "Nip Tuck" and "Barbie Dreams" respectively. Nicki shows supreme confidence on the mic here.
4.5 Stars

Eminem-Kamikaze-Eminem was really mad on this album. But ironically the target this time..was his fans...smh. Regardless the flows were really good. I liked his Revival album better
4.5 Stars

T.I.- Dime Trap: T.I's latest album sounds really energetic and proud. I love his approach on his songs. Its TIP as usual but a brand new way to present it. I guess sometimes if it ain't broken no need to fix it.
4.5 stars

Ariana Grande-Sweetner: This album is really...how do you say, SWEET? I love it! "God is a Woman" is a provocative and awesome. The album has well used guests spots which include Missy Elliot, Pharrell Williams, and Nicki Minaj.
4.5 stars

Kanye West & Kid Cudi (Kids See Ghost)-I haven't heard much of this album but I really like what I've heard.
4.5 stars

 Logic- YSIV: Logics return to the boom bap sounnd is awesome and awe inspiring!

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...

Tech Review: Iphone Air

 I have only had this phone for over a week but I feel the need to review it. I recently got a 512gb light gold iPhone Air. This phone is so thin. You really have to hold it for yourself to believe it. I knew when I used it at a local Best Buy I had to have it. The phone is also a modern marvel having most of the technology in the camera bump. Of course you're wondering about that camera and battery life.  Honestly the battery is decent. It gets me through the day at work with minimal charging ( I mean who goes somewhere with no charger anymore?). The camera is good too. I'm not a huge camera guy anyways. The phone's 6.5 inch Super Retina XDR OLED display is great. I really notice a difference from my old phone (iPhone 12). The phone doesn't really get that hot either which is great. One thing I'm not a huge fan of is the one speaker on the phone....but honestly it's not that bad. I usually use headphones anyways. Apple Intelligence is still in beta but I think ...
