My Thoughts 2019 (Part 3)

I have a few things to talk about so lets get it. I'm not doing this like the usual My Thoughts where I break it down by category. I really feel like some personal issues have prevented me from blogging on this site like I used to. I recently got a new laptop for Christmas so the blogs should come with a little more frequency. So if you been rocking with me all this time...my hat goes off to you.

Can I just say I'm disappointed with rap music in 2019. I am also disappointed that we didn't get an album from Rihanna this year. I mean sh**....we need that R9 yo. I haven't felt like reviewing that many albums as most have fell short of expectations.

Basketball wise I'm enjoying this NBA season. I'm a Laker fan and I'm glad they've gone from playoff chasers to an elite team in the Western Conference. I think the Bucks are the team to beat however. I got Giannis winning MVP for the 2nd year in a row. I want the Lakers to play the Clippers in the Western conference finals as they need to beat that team.

I've also been watching a lot of football this year. I'm hoping that the Patriots don't make the Super Bowl again. It's like damn don't y'all win enough. I doubt my team, the Steelers will make the playoffs tho. I don't think anyone is beating Baltimore tho....'

Video Game wise things have been interesting. I decided to go and get Pokemon Shield over Call of Duty Modern Warfare. I beat Pokemon in like 2 weeks. The game was really good actually. Haters be damned. It looked good and I love how they streamlined the battles. Expect a review on it at some point.

I'm so glad they Impeached President Donald Trump. This man is so corrupt and he's a liar. I wish they'd remove him from office but it looks that won't happen. On the democratic side of things I was sad when Kamala Harris dropped out as she was my favorite candidate. Now who do I go for? I'm not really a Biden guy and I'm not really feeling the "Bern" LOL.

That was just some random thoughts of mine. Thanks for reading!

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

Album Review: Lupe Fiasco's Tetsuo & Youth

Lupe has come back, and with a classic album. He seemed to be back on tracks with Food and Liquor II, but F&L2 wasn’t as fun to listen to as his earlier albums. Even LASERS was more fun. This album however, is very complex and fun to listen to. It’s also incredibly well produced. Lupe proves he’s still a top lyricist in the game. Check out his lyrical showcase on Mural, or storytelling on  Prisoner 1 & 2. He’s got a really long song called Chopper which features a lot of guests but its all good. The last song might be the weakest which features Ab-Soul. No Scratches feat. Nikki Jean is one of my favorite songs here. The interludes are pretty intersing, but ultimately skippable. This album is already up for album of the year, and honestly it will be hard for anyone to match this effort. The verdict... its 10/10 for me. This is a great album
