Damn this joint is scheduled to drop July 24th, no comment. I had my thoughts about putting this album up for full stream but it seems that a lot of the big name sites have already done so, so F it. I’m not going to review this joint but in my opinion the first half of the album dwarfs the second half. Enjoy this full stream with a tracklist after the link. Continue reading

Nas – Life Is Good Album Review
New Nas album. Let’s check it out.
1. No Introduction (Produced by J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League)
“Really what’s in my mind is organizing a billion black motherfuckers
To take over JP and Morgan Goldman and Sachs
And teach the world facts and give Saudi they oil back”
I didn’t expect an intro like this. You hear a crowd cheering as if Nas is about to address his congregation or something. I think that’s a pastor shouting soundbite during the breaks. If it is, damn. It does have Continue reading
Oddisee – People Hear What They See (Album Review)
Oddisee has been on the move lately, with the recent release of Odd Renditions and now a near album, he is ensuring that its his time to shine! I’m sure that people are still blasting that “Gold Is Mine” but when they get a whiff of what Oddisee has on ‘People Hear What They See’, things might change for the better.

Let’s get into it… Continue reading
Santigold – Master of My Make-Believe (album review)
I believe this is the first review that I have done that is not necessarily hip hop. People have been hyping Santigold’s new album that is set to release April 24 (UK) and May 1st (US) entitled Master of My Make-Believe. I have always considered Santigold to be one of those artist that releases some fresh songs from time to time but not an artist that I would purchase her whole album, well not until now. This new album is something extra fresh and when it drops I’m pretty sure it will have no problem living up to the hype. Well here’s what I think of each song from the album…peep… Continue reading

Song of the Week (Outside of Hip Hop)
Many people have probably heard of Lana Del Rey within these past couple of weeks. I chose one of her songs for this week’s selection. I think what attracted me to her music is that it contains some of the same elements that hip hop has but good music will always find its way to the light. The lyrics in her music reflect the moments found in relationships. She manages to capture so much emotion in her songs by losing herself in the music. This week’s selection is Continue reading
