My Thoughts: Early 2019

There are a few things on my mind for this session of My Thoughts. Let me break it down in terms of Political, Music, Gaming, and Misc. Thoughts.

I really try and keep up with (American) Politics. The much awaited Mueller Report was supposed to condemn Donald Trump, who is easily the worst president of we've ever had. This president just doesn't care. I mean its obvious. He cares about his OWN racist agendas and his OWN party's interests. Take the southern border crisis for example. It's just a huge mess. We've got migrants basically being detained at the border and he's not letting them in. Trump also claims a border wall will fix these issues. It's like dude wtf. A border wall wont fix anything....most illegal stuff comes into the country at the point of entry.

Music wise, I am still playing catchup. I bought a lot of music last year like Christina Agiullera, Kanye's Short Albums, Mac Miller, Lupe Fiasco, I basically have so much new music its taking me till this year to get to it all. I did pick up the new Arianna Grande and 2 Chainz albums so expect reviews for those at some point. I heard Kanye has a new album called Yandi in the workds.....I also know Rihanna has R9 coming out some time this year too.

I don't have much to say as far as gaming goes. I havent really played many new games. I did play Spiderman. I thought it was decent but I kinda got suckered into buying it....and I traded it. Call of Duty Black Ops 4 felt like a crime agaisnt humanity. It had no campaign and that really pissed me off. I tried the Battle Royale thing and man did it seem lame to me. I have been playing a lot of Horizon Zero Dawn and Zelda Breath of the Wild. Both of those are excellent games and I plan to review the former before the latter one day soon.

I heard about the plane that went down in Eithiopia. A truly tragic loss. It seems they are just now figuring out went wrong. Also my condolences to those that lost someone in that tragic shooting in New Zealand. Surely White Nationalism is to blame for that.

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 ...
