(Released October 31st, 2017) Over the years I’ve been pretty vocal about my feelings regarding Chris Brown’s more recent musical performances (check out my in-depth article here), as a former “stan,” turned fan, turned an occasional listener it seemed as if Brown was destined to release project after project without ever really making that album. Will [...]
(Released September 29th, 2017) It’s been two years since Tamar Braxton released her fourth album “Calling All Lovers.” It seemed to be her best project up to that point - showing more artistic growth, and overall maturity than her previous effort “Love and War” - While the album isn’t perfect it does a great job [...]
(Released September 22nd, 2017) It’s been over a decade since Fergie blessed the pop world with her first solo album “The Dutchess.” The album spawned undeniable hits like “Fergalicious,” “Glamorous,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” “London Bridge,” and my personal favorite “All That I Got.” Needless to say it, almost effortlessly, proved that she could stand [...]
(Released June 30th, 2017) It's been nearly fifteen years since the group credited as being the highest selling female (American) group of all time released their fourth album 3D - just seven months after the passing of Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes - while the album had noticeable shortcomings, fans could appreciate the group finishing the [...]
(Released May 5th, 2017) Prior to the release of Everybody, the only project that I had heard from Logic was his latest mixtape Bobby Tarantino.

(Released May 26th, 2017) I've been slow to join the Tiller train, so slow that it's still passing by at this very moment, but I decided to give his sophomore LP a listen after finding a few songs on his debut album TrapSoul to be pretty okay; nothing extraordinary but acceptable for what it was. [...]
(Released October 2nd, 2015) It's been one year since Tamar Braxton released the follow-up to 2013s Love and War. While that album was very successful and helped get her out of Toni Braxton's shadow, it showed that even though she has what it takes to be a star on her own, she needed some more [...]
(Released September 16th, 2016) After a six-year hiatus, three name changes and two years worth of multiple false starts, Mr. Nice & Slow finally returns with his eighth studio album Hard II Love. It's clear that Usher is an undeniable superstar but these days the singers star is fading and that talent is becoming more [...]
I think that that kid on that album that I heard sounds real fucking uninspired. 40 continues to progress; Drake, you do not. I miss the Drake that starts the waves, not hops on other waves. I miss the drake that pushes the fucking agenda. - Joe Budden (only in your mind, Drake. Only in [...]
(Released February 23rd, 1999) Described as the best album released by Marshall Mathers, Eminem's The Slim Shady Lp is brash and bold; released during a time when this rap style shocked the general public and left many disgusted. But, in a weird, twisted way it worked for Em. No other artist can paint scenarios of killing his [...]
