Album Review: Anywhere But Here
The Brooklyn rapper released his first proper solo album since 2017’s Nick @ Knight. Caution gained popularity as a member of the hip-hop collective Pro Era. Anywhere But Here acts as a re-coming out party of sorts for the artist, as going over three years without a release for an artist with a smaller following as someone like me could tend to forget about someone like this.
Classic Album Review: The Cool
Lupe Fiasco burst onto the scene with his debut album and the Chicago native showed everyone why Kanye and Jay-Z had been so taken by his rapping. Lupe Fiasco combined pristine story telling, complex rhyme schemes, varied flows, and hard hitting one liners to put out an album that was an instant hit.
Distant EP: Review
The phrase “pleasantly surprised” doesn't even begin to describe my feelings towards this project. I am going to break this down track by track in just a second but this EP delivered in a way I was not expecting and I was genuinely excited to write about it after only a couple listens.
Music To Be Murdered By - Side B: Review
It has been a very satisfying two weeks in hip-hop. First we got Kid Cudi and Man on the Moon III: The Chosen, and now we get Eminem releasing Music To Be Murdered By - Side B. What this album does is take the original album, and make it a double album.
Man on the Moon III: The Chosen: Review
This article was supposed to come out about 24 hours ago and then it didn’t. The issue I had with this album was there was just too much for me to digest.
Nightmare Vacation: Review
Rico Nasty’s latest project, Nightmare Vacation, contains sixteen tracks and comes in at just under thirty-nine minutes long. This album is less a Nightmare Vacation and more a dreamscape for bangers
THE HUSTLE CONTINUES: Review
Hey you, ya you come here. Do you enjoy the artistic stylings of the man that brought us “Bandz A Make Her Dance,” an absolutely classic song that we all know and love. Well then boy do I have an album for you.
How I Grade Albums
Reading or watching someone else dissect and review an album you love can be a very disheartening experience. What can be even worse is having no clue what that person cares about when reviewing said album.
Spirit World Field Guide: Review
Aesop Rock will blow your mind. It is known. Whether it’s the fast pace flows teamed with rhyme schemes so intricate it would make Eminem blush, or the most wild stories that sound like they’re being recalled from memory but absolutely cannot be true.
