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.

Doja Cat Albums Worst to Best

Doja Cat has been one of my favorite rapper/singers of the past few years. Let's see which albums are the best from her. 5) Amala (88)- Doja’s first album is honestly pretty damn good. You can tell she was still refining her sound tho on this. The last 3 songs “Juicy”, “Tia Tamera”, and “Mooo” are so good. “Candy” is another banger. The album is really well balanced being pretty much good in all areas but not really great in any tho. Favorite Track: Mooo. 4) Scarlet (90)- Believe it or not, this was an album I was on the fence about getting. I’m glad I got it. This is a rap heavy album but there’s still plenty of singing here and there. “Demons” and “F**k the GIrls” are Doja at her roughest. “Attention” was a great single. “Agora Hills” is a nice cute track. The monster single “Paint the Town Red” is the best track however. This album wa a big departure for her, but for the most part it paid off. Fav. Track Paint the Town Red. 3) Vie (92)- This was Doja returning to her pop roots,...

Video Game Review: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

I happened to beat this game recently for the first time in I was just in awe at how epic this game is. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is a sequel to Final Fantasy 7 Remake (which I played on the ps4). This game was a ps5 exclusive however. I know I needed a ps5 if I was gonna play it. And last year I made that happen. This is a continuation of the story of Cloud, Tifa, Aerith, and Barrett as they fight against the Shinra Corporation and the evil Sephiroth. I'll try not spoil much. When the game starts you play as Zack who is a solider like Cloud. You saw Zack at the end of Remake. Basically story wise there is another dimension in this game and you play as Zach in it here and there. There is a relationship meter that the main character Cloud has with every party member….answering certain questions one way or another will change the relationship. I found this to be a cool touch that the first game barely had any resemblance of. The game's graphics are outstanding and characters look ...

Album Review: Doja Cat-Vie

The much anticipated latest Doja Cat album! I was very curious to see where she'd go after the dark rap heavy Scarlet. The path she took was a 80s sounding pop album. It took a few listens for the album to click with me but yeah its awesome. Doja is in her zone here on this album. She sings a lot and acts as her own featured rap artist which is interesting. The first 3 songs are pretty strong. "Cards" is sultry. I love "Jealous Type" too (the lead single). "AAAH MEN!" might be my favorite song however. The production is great but maybe not the best she's ever had. I liked most every song. "Silly!Fun!" and "Come Back" are also excellent. As far as features go there's only SZA on " Take Me Dancing". So basically we have a very strong album here...but maybe not quite as good as Planet Her but it’s very close. Maybe I'll do a Doja Cat album ranking in the near future. She's been one of my favorite artists sin...
