Chesstown King's Reviews and Thoughts

I feel like i dont show enough love to Contemporary R&B so here are some of my favorite albums Aaliyah:Aaliyah - The self titled album from Aaliyah is one of the better R&B albums I’ve heard. The Timbaland beats are smooth and varied. Aaliyah was in her prime here, R.I.P. to the baby girl. Alicia Keys Element of Freedom - I believe this is Alicia’s best album overall. It doesn’t have any lackluster songs. I really like Try Sleeping With a Broken Heart and Unthinkable(I’m Ready) The Dream- Love Hate - The extraordinary songwriter’s debut album is has its ups and downs but the highs are really high if you will. Like SHawty is the Sh**, Fast Car, Livin a Lie, and Nikki. Amerie Because I Love It- This is the album that really got me into Amerie. I’m surprised this didn’t come out in the U.S. This album is incredible. Amerie has some really varied songs like Hate2loveu, Crazy Wonderful, and Losing U. Amerie In Love & War- Amerie’s best album to...

The Dreamer- A great intro track. It’s clear that Common is back as he spits hard here. Maya Angelou closes out the track. “Took me back to when I first had a dream, to be   like the King that sung Billie Jean” 9.5/10 Ghetto Dreams- Chai Town ’s Nas is joined by none other than the real Nas. The song is fast paced and hot. The beat is hot and I like the simple chorus. 9/10 Blue Sky- I absolutely love this song. The song has a lot of cool elements in it. Most impressive Common’s impeccable lyricism. Mr. Blue Sky please tell us why. 10/10 Sweet- A diss track to noone in particular(sorry Drake). Common raps hard here, perhaps a little too hard as he is clearly a soft rapper as well. “Sweet a** b**ch mother f***er” 9/10 Gold- This is a pretty good song. The beat is pretty simple yet effective, I really like the Chorus.   8/10 Lovin I Lost- Ah a song about love that was lost. “How could someone you love each and everyday, be...

I am writing this to show my respects to what I think is the best(not greatest) game I have ever played. The original was released in 1998. The game just has everything a good game should have. There's an excellent story, Great Controls, Terriffic Enemies and Engaging Boss Fights. The graphics were also impressive for that time....the only thing I dont really like is the fact is that the game is mostly linear, but there are some side quests. The game starts off pretty easy, in fact on subsequent playthroughs I could breeze right threw the first 2 dungeons and their bosses. Gohma is pretty easy, and the KIng Dodongo is even easier if you know where to stand. The 3rd dungeon, Jabu Jabu's Belly will give you fits unless you know exactly what to do. I think i was stuck on one part for weeks. More than any other dungeon in the game do i think the new item you get is so effective. Without it you will struggle. The boss is really tough too, but if your quick you can take h...

Okay now I will review one of my favorite movies Star Wars Revenge of the Sith. This movie came out way back in 2005, but its still one of the most emotinal, tragic movies ever made. What I liked The Opening scene was so awesome. In fact the first 20 minutes are action packed. The duel between Anakin, Obiwan vs. Count Dooku was great. The fight against Grievous' bodyguards was cool also. The Dialogue in this movie was great unlike its 2 predecessors. Obi Wan has his famous "You were the Chosen one" to a defeate Darth Vader. Then theres Palpatine who just seems to have one cool line after another. Anakin's seduction by the Dark side is the movie's main theme. If you thought Hayden didnt do a good job in EP. 2, you will change your mind in this one. He's Confused, he's passionate, and he's willing to do anything to save his wife, Padme The Duels were really good, especially the decision to show Yoda vs. Sidious and Vader vs. Obi wan at the same...

8 Mile Loose Yourself- Eminem’s top song in my opinion. He made a great rap song from the perspective of a movie character. The song is plain and simply flawless. It’s really inspiring also. The Eminem Show 4)Sing for the Moment- A great song about how rap is changing things. The chorus is great as are Em’s verses. 3) Without Me- This is almost as good as the real slimshady, but it’s a little bit goofier, and it may have a better beat. 2)Cleanin Out My Closet- An entire song dedicated to SLimshady’s mother. The song has a very complex and mesmerizing beat. A true classic in Em’s list of great songs. 1) Till I Collapse- I don’t know what provoked this song…but Em makes it clear on this song….he wants to be the best rapper alive if not ever. With a performance like this he’s on the list top 10….maybe even top 5. Encore 3) Ass Like That- This song is ridiculously funny…..I really like the Middle Eastern type beat. 2) Encore- A pretty dec...

I am a big advocate of video games but i feel that the industry is getting rather stale. Everything that comes out is a sequel of something else. Its like the gaming industry has a motto..."If it aint broke don't fix it". I'm saying they need to get the creativity back. I refuse to believe everything has already been done that can be done. I mean Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 was good....but it was almost like playing an upgraded version of MW2 lol. As my friend told me...."Its the same game" Dont get me started on Pokemon. Its essentially the same game its been since the late 90s...they just add this and that here or there to make it "new". I also feel the systems like the Nintendo 3DS in particular is just a waste, and not much of an upgrade to the other DS'. I love video games but I'd just like to see some life breathed back into gaming.

Thank Me Later Fireworks- Drake raps about his newfound stardom. He’s joined by Alicia Keys who does a great job on the chorus. The beat is kinda nothing more than a backdrop. I really like Drake’s verses here. 9/10 Karaoke- Drake sings almost the entire song. Its an okay song but rather skippable. 5.5/10 The Resistance- This one is a little better than the previous track. I like the chorus. Drake continues to rap about his newly found stardom. The beat is interesting but the topic has gotten kinda stale by now. 6/10 Over- Over is a tremendous song with an awesome beat. Drake kills the song with sharp delivery. 9.5/10 Show Me a Good Time- Another uptempo song. I really like the beat, and the chorus is pretty hot too. 8.5/10 Up All Night- This is song has a real dark feel to it, as Drizzy and Minaj kill the song. Nicki really steals the show though…..with lines like “F*** I look like ho? I look like yes and you like no”. ...
