Album Review: J. Cole-The Off Season

 J. Cole has finally returned after 3 years, and man I gotta admit I wasnt feeling this that much at first but it really grew on me! The album just might be Cole at his lyrical best....its hard to say. The production is pretty good too. The album gets off to a pretty good start with "95. south" which features some lines from an old Lil Jon song. You know how much I like Crunk music (or did like it). There's some other highlights too like "Pride is the Devil" which features a surprisingly good Lil Baby verse. He storytells pretty well on  "let. go. my. hand". The best track has got to be "the. climb. back" tho where he spits some really sharp bars. Overall this is a really good album from him. It's certainly better than his last outing. Here's to more music from one of rap's most consistent artists.  Lyrics 24 Beats 23 Depth 25 Tilt 24 Verdict 96

Video Game Review: Final Fantasy 7 Remake

I recently beat Final Fantasy 7 Remake. It was an incredible game. No it wasn't perfect but it did so many things right. First off the graphics were truly amazing. The characters looked really realistic for the most part. The voice acting was also a stand out. Even NPCs have voice acting which is really cool. I really liked the main characters voices. I loved that you get to not just control Cloud in certain points of the game. Tifa, Barret, and Aerith are also controllable.  Of course no matter how the game looks and sounds it wouldn't be good without a great battle system. It's kind of like Final Fantasy 15's real time fighting combined with a turn based system. I really liked it. There were some encounters where I didn't have to really do anything, but most fights were tough enough to require me to stay on top of it. The Materia system is really cool, which came from the original game.  I ended up beating the game in about 36 hours. I did most of the side quests ...
