<div align="center">SourSoul - Ghostface & Bad Bad Not Good: Album Review
![]() Mono Good start with a nice beat. Not much to say with it being under a minute. SourSoul Beautiful strings in the background with an overpowering drum loop that gives it a nice dichotomy. Ghost does his thing but BBNG are the stars of this track with their beautiful arrangements. Six Degrees ft. Danny Brown The first single off the album is a fantastic one. Danny Brown fits in so well with BBNG and their out there jazz beats. There is an interesting bass line during most of Danny’s verse. Ghost never really seems to find himself on this beat while this seems made for Danny. I like the line, “You better get ghost before I go and get Ghost.†Gunshowers ft. Elzhi A nice piano loop and simple drums really make this beat standout. In the era of minimalism, I don’t really know how many people do it as well as the boys from the T.Dot do. “I coin phrases that trigger dollas.†A nice line inside a great verse from Elzhi. Ghost found this beat well and he was grimy as fuck. Which again is a nice dichotomy between a real smooth jazz beat and Ghost’s aggressiveness. Starks Reality This is the first beat that sounds like a movie credits type beat which usually I don’t mess with but when BBNG do it, they do it very well. The strings are gorgeous. The shaker is a nice touch and the drums are very harmonious with the rest of the beat. It all flows together real well and it was a nice way to show off BBNG without Ghost. And man is that guitar funky as hell. Tones Rap This is the pimp Ghostface. Talking about bitches, his demands and how he Pooh Bear and these hoes need to go make him the honey. The beat is once again the standout part of the track. It is very innocuous and allows Ghost to go in. The issue is that Ghost is overly aggressive when the beat calls for something smoother. Mind Playing Tricks The beat was much more aggressive and fast past which allowed Ghost to just go off. Street Knowledge ft. Tree My favorite beat on the album. It is so jazzy and smooth. It is just a basic piano loop and a simple 1-2 drum loop. Tree has an interesting voice and is someone I have never heard of. Ghost destroys this beat flow wise. But all of his verses are kind of blending. Watch your money, sell your drugs, watch out for cops etc. etc. etc. I understand this song is Street Knowledge and thus fits here but it is like this in most of the album Ray Gun ft. Doom I take back the favorite beat. This one is. It has a 70s feel or like a piece you would find in a Tarantino flick. Doom never lays a bad first. He is probably the most underrated great in the game. If the Ghost/Doom album ever came out…. I don’t even know what I would do. It has such an old school feel with the strings giving it a cabaret feel but everything else making it seem funky. Also a big fan of the beat switch. It gives a big time feel and it feels like the end of a crescendo. Nuggets of Wisdom Leland Whitey in the building! Whitey was the star of BBNG’s last album ‘III’. His sax work is great and he is just a fantastic instrumentalist. The drums on this are probably the best it has sounded all album and the strings are still as majestic as ever and Ghost acts like a boxer on this one, coming out, throwing some jabs and jumping out right at the perfect time to let BBNG do their thing. Food I used to rob for food now I give food for thought. A great first line for this song. Again a lot of the same shit though content wise and it grows stale after a while. This is better though in that his wordplay and his metaphors are much better. Beat is amazing again. I would have thought this would have been the last track as it has a closing feel but I guess not. This track is more about how times have changed for Ghost and how things are changing for the worst in society and what needs to be done to correct that. Experience Another instrumental that is great. I really don’t have much to say about BBNG that hasn’t already been said. They have redefined what jazz can be and have modernized it for the younger generations while retaining a nice old-school feel. They are the MVPs of this album. Leeland Whitey kills the sax tho. Overall this album had more promise than execution. While it is a good album, it isn’t what I had thought it would be based off the singles with Doom and Danny Brown. A lot of the time Ghost fails to find the beat properly and it ends up sounding weird or off key. It also doesn’t help that his flow and lyrics become redundant at the album moves on. The features were fantastic though with Danny Brown flowing like a boss. But again, BBNG are the stars. They have redefined what jazz can be and have modernized it for the younger generations while retaining a nice old-school feel. They are the MVPs of this album. A good album with the idea of something great but falls short of achieving the idea. 7.4</div> ![]() ![]() Registered S1, S3, S4, S6, S13, S19 and S28 Challenge Cup Champion
<div align="center">Dark Sky Paradise - Big Sean: Album Review
![]() Dark Sky This was a terrible opening track. The beat is whatever. It is a pretty generic and pedantic hip-hop beat. Sean has some nice flow switches but his content is cringe worthy. “Doin more numbers like I’m Chinese†and “I’m walkin safe like I’m in a safe house.†I mean really, these are lines on an album from a Good Music artist? Not a good start. Blessings ft. Drake The beat is interesting with a real big time feel. It has a nice little beat loop…. Then Sean comes on. He flows nice and had a couple fun lines, “I’ve been with some homies since Ed,Edd and Eddy.†But then there is some shit like, “The crew is the tightest, the pussy the tightest.†Drums on this are also really heavy and hard hitting with a lot of substance behind it. Drake does his thang. I really like this cockiness from Drake is much better than his crying shit from “Marvin’s Room,†All Your Fault ft. Kanye West This beat is awesome. It is super soulful with some electronic melodies. It fits Kanye well. When Ye sings more and turns down the auto tune, it can create something nice. He also flows on here…. Like really flows. A little Walt Disney line comparing him to Mickie Mouse and every other dude is Goofy. Big Sean was whatever on this and Kanye dominated this track. One of my favorite tracks and I liked the back and forth between Sean and Ye at end. I don’t Fuck With You ft. E-40 I forgot E-40 was alive. He does his thing and Sean is decent. The hook is obviously the big thing and I am addicted to it for some reason. The overall song is a big let down from the previous track. Nice to see 40 is alive and doing well though. Play No Games ft. Chris Brown and Ty Doll Sign I think this song is terrible. Beat is whatever, I don’t fuck with Chris Brown at all and who the fuck is Ty Dolla Sign? Dude ruined whatever was salvageable from this track and spoiler alert, there was nothing to salvage. Paradise Mike Will Made It beat. It is hard and bangs in the whip. This is Sean at his peak and the best I have ever heard. He murders this track. The horns knock, the drums kick and Sean comes in like a pro. The start is kinda meh flow wise but then he hulks up and spits faster than Em on “Rap God.†It was crazy. He is bragging and I love it. Win Some Lose Some What a big come down from the previous track. I always say this but sequencing is important and to go from Paradise to this just kinda leaves it falling flat no matter how sweet the song may be. Very average. Stay Down This has a Nothing Was the Same Drake feel to it. Sean kinda singing and rapping. The issue is Sean’s singing is garbage and it comes off as a mess. The beat is lackluster with the clap drum and run of the mill 808s that back the song. Sean is so good technically but he has nothing new to say. Such a disappointment. I Know ft. Jhene Aiko The beats are all kind of beginning to sound the same and even a Mustard beat can’t save this. This monotone Sean is the reason why so many critics shit on him. He shows no emotion on this track and he had done a good job showing a bit of emotion. Jhene AIko is great in a supporting role. I love her voice and she is the MVP of this track. Deep ft. Lil Wayne Once again the beat sounds the same as the track before it and so on and so forth. Same with Sean’s flow. I feel like watching a mute hand sign a song would show more emotion than Sean does throughout his whole career. I feel like he is the rapper de-void of fun and swag. He also calls himself the best rapper in the world on this track. If best rapper is the best rapper to put you to sleep, he got this. Lil Wayne was terrible on this but he was better than Sean was. It is 2015 and Wayne is outdoing someone on a track. One Man Can Change the World ft. Kanye West and John Legend Sean again trying to do his best impression of a singer and it falls flat. It is a nice message from Sean at least. Follow your dreams and see them through to fruition. Also to just love yourself and realize who you are. It really is something everyone should figure out soon in their life because if they do, they will be much happier. It is a real nice touching track. Outro That other track should have been the closer. Sean is terrible but the beat is awesome. This is Sean’s third commercial release and to be frank, it is more of the same. Sean’s skill is undeniable. He can flow super fast while still making sense which is a skill to have. However what he is spitting is pointless and boring. It is the same shit he and other average rappers have rapped about and they do it with much less flair. When Sean isn’t spitting fast he is using that monotone flow and pattern that literally made me doze off. He got some nice beats including Paradise and both Kanye tracks but a lot of them kind of sound the same and it isn’t like they were great to begin with. Overall this album is average at best and Sean is outshined by his peers on most of these tracks. That isn’t to say Sean didn’t do his thing from time to time like on “Paradise†but those highs are so rare that even when they come they are drowned out by the shortcomings that equates to who and what Big Sean is. This is a hard pass on the album. 5.2</div> ![]() ![]() Registered S7, S22 Challenge Cup Champion
<div align="center">
![]() Big Sean - Dark Sky Paradise</div> Dark Sky (Skyscrapers): 8/10 -Produced by Rob Got Beats with some assistance from Boi-1da, this opening has a grand feeling to it thanks to this stellar beat. Sean rides this beat very well and shows that, yes, he does have bars from time to time. In particular, the line, "And then they say it happened for me overnight, shit, yeah I guess / I guess it took ten years for me to be an overnight success" is incredibly dope. I also dug the line, "Taking double shots like Siamese / I'm from where crime breeds, her titties out like sign these". Featuring good lyrics, flow, and delivery, from Big Sean, this album starts out on a high. Blessings (ft. Drake): 8/10 -When Sean says, "Blessings on blessings on blessings" and the beat drops, oooooooooo I started sweating. This beat from Vinylz bumps heavily and could turn a non-believer into somebody who's front and center. Sean has great flow and delivery on his verse, the Drake verse also delivers as expected, but what does hold this one back is the Drake hook. I hate his vocals when he sings "way up". Damn that line kills me every time. His vocals there are just so horrible that it holds this song back from being even doper. However, as it stands, this one features a good beat, good lyrics, and then both rappers do their thing here. All Your Fault (ft. Kanye West): 8/10 -One of the most highly anticipated tracks from the album thanks to the Kanye feature, this one delivers on all fronts. The beat from Kanye and numerous others is dope and then the verses deliver. The delivery of these lines from Kanye, "Young Walt Disney, I'ma tell you truthfully / If you leave Mickey you gon' end up with a Goofy / I imagine that's what Chris told Karrueche / Girls be actin' like it's diamonds in they coochie" is what gets me every time. And then these lines from Sean, "Somewhere off in Vegas rollin' dice up at the Caesar's / Got me thinkin' back bout how I used to roll to Little Caesar's / Piece of pizza with Tanisha" stood out to me for two reasons. One, I like the small attempt at being introspective here, but I just like how "piece of pizza" sounds like "pizza pizza", the slogan for Little Caesar's. Just a small thing that sounds dope in practice. Overall, though I prefer the first two tracks here, "All Your Fault", keeps the ball rolling. I Don’t Fuck With You (ft. E-40): 5/10 -Can I just note how seamless the transition from "All Your Fault" to this is? It's insane, it just switches perfectly. This beat from DJ Mustard and Kanye is super nice and bumps heavily and then I love the music video, solely because of football coach Kanye, haha. But anyways, as for the song as a whole, it is alright. I do not like the hook at all and I think E-40's verse adds absolutely nothing but time to the song. Though a fine verse, E-40's verse just does nothing at all to benefit the song. A lot of this song does just sound like Sean is bitter about Naya Rivera and that entire feel is off-putting to me, admittedly. As a song though, it's not bad. Play No Games (ft. Chris Brown & Ty Dolla Sign): 3/10 -Every time I listen to this track, I come away with the impression that it serves three purposes. Firstly, it allows Sean to say he got a KeY Wane beat on this album. As a long-time collaborator, he probably wanted at least one solo beat from him to be here. Second, he wanted a Chris Brown feature to try and move records. Finally, it is filler. The song is not bad, but it just never makes me care about it at any moment in time and ultimately leaves me feeling entirely underwhelmed and bored. Paradise: 8/10 -Where the last track disappoints and bores, this one gets me so hyped it is insane. This beat from Mike WiLL Made-It bumps so damn hard it should be illegal. "Aw damn, I'm illuminated, man, I knew I make it / And I get that shit accumulated / Never throwing money out, I boomerang it / Finally famous over everything, that's a numerator" is a small sample of the stuff Sean is saying on this track and a prime example of how he delivers lyrically here. Sure, it's not a lyrical masterpiece, but it works well and, plus, his flow and delivery on this one are killer. He rides the beat well and the end result is a dope ass song. "Finally famous, *****" Win Some, Lose Some (ft. Jhene Aiko): 7/10 -Sean gets his storytelling on as he touches on his rise to fame and times when he messed up. The beat from T-Minus is pretty nice, nothing amazing, but it works well. This song is largely about Sean though and he definitely does his thing here. "On my way to see Kim and Ye both tie the knot / Wishin' me and you were no strings attached, but were nots" is the one line that did stick out to me. In stark contrast to "I Don't Fuck With You", Sean actually sounds mature about his break up in this line and ultimately, it does make the listener feel something. The hook is very good and Sean's vocals there are fine, though the true star is obviously Jhene Aiko, who has the voice of an angel without question. Stay Down: 5/10 -Produced by Da Internz, this beat is just fine and gets the job done, but I do prefer the second verse where the beat pretty much stops and Sean just sits back and spits. However, this line from the first verse, "She like girls if she don't like me" makes me laugh. The second verse is far superior though, with lines such as, "And the titties, paparazzi they be flashin', god damnit I'm a hottie", "But you know them crackers ain't gonna let you get the Ritz", and "Girls handing me their heart, how could I not break that shit?" standing out to me in particular. However, the second verse does throw the song off a bit. From the beginning and hook, it feels more like it is going to be a banger-type track, but then the second verse comes in and it's hardcore rap and ultimately, I do not know how to feel. Regardless though, this song is nothing more than ok. While I love the second verse, the beginning is so underwhelming to me, they only cancel one another out. I Know (ft. Jhene Aiko): 7/10 -This beat is dark and moody and I freaking love it. Sean's verse is fine, but let's not lie and pretend that this song isn't all about Jhene Aiko. Nobody should be allowed to have a voice this gorgeous. His verse and really any time we hear her voice are the best parts of this song without question. In saying that though, I do love this part from Sean, "I mean baby I know you've been, wanna be that baddest / Wanna be with somebody who ain't never had it / No status, just all cinematics, you just got casted". As a whole, this song is nothing extraordinary and ultimately serves as a great showcase of Jhene's talent, which I can only assume is not the goal on a Big Sean album. Deep (ft. Lil Wayne): 7/10 -"Man, I look up to God, I wonder if I fell from the sky / Would I hit the ground or will I learn how to fly?". 100% guarantee you'd hit the ground, dawg. The hook here from Big Sean is dope, the production from DJ Mustard and KeY Wane is also very good. As for the verses, Sean has good flow and delivery on his and goes in lyrically. "You fuck with the best rapper, don't even know it / It's written in the stars, man, the sky is the author / I pulled the sword out of the stone, I'm King Arthur" stood out to me in particular. As for Lil Wayne, he continues to drop hot verses in the lead up to Tha Carter V, making me continue to wonder if it will be as bad as I originally figured it would be. There are no lines that stand out to me from his verse, but the verse as a collective whole is just fire. Overall, dope track. One Man Can Change the World (ft. Kanye West & John Legend): 10/10 -Brilliant production, absolutely marvelous. That shit alone could make me cry and then the hook comes in and the tears start flowing, all culminating with the ending of Sean's second verse. "I hope you learn to make it on your own / And if you love yourself just know you'll never be alone / I hope that you get everything you want and that you chose / I hope that it's the realest thing that you ever know" is perfect and then those closing lines of, "Taught me how to love, taught me not to cry / When I die, I hope you teach me how to fly / All my life you've been that angel in disguise saying" absolutely kill me. I hate that he added the ending recording of him talking to his grandma though, because it just ruins me. Dammit Sean, I didn't expect to cry listening to your album. Beautiful vocals from Kanye and John Legend tie this one up nicely with a bow and then the deeper meaning of having those two features, as well as the added importance of this track given the recent death of his grandmother just...damn. This song is absolute musical perfection and unexpected to say the least. Outro: 8/10 -Featuring nothing but Sean spitting, this one has a decent beat that kind of works at times and kind of falls flat at others, making it nothing more than alright, though Sean does flow on it nicely. "What if you lost your homie and you felt like Kriss Kross? / Double cross, I swear that Christians don't even get this cross", "And all these singing bitches know me like do-ray-mi / Fa-so-la-ti-do but dough come first / No late fees, Kool-Aid smile, Colgate teeth", and "Niggas say I changed, how they damn how they do / Say I'm hard to get in contact with, oh, is that true? / But what about now? 313 / 515-8772, bitch, call me", are the lines that stand out to me the most here, as Sean delivers lyrically here throughout and drops one of the better pure rap tracks he has ever dropped here. As with the intro, this is a very good outro and shows that Sean has somehow managed to master the craft of starting and ending albums. 84/120 -> 7/10 Overall, this is another step in the right direction for Big Sean. His debut album, Finally Famous, only offered a couple of good tracks, while his sophomore effort Hall of Fame was also mixed bag, it did have a few songs that really worked well. Here, while still not a really good album, Sean keeps showing improvement and continues to show major flashes of talent. On tracks such as "One Man Can Change the World", "Dark Sky (Skyscrapers)", and "Outro", he shows his ability on more rap-oriented tracks, while on tracks such as "All Your Fault", "Blessings", and "Paradise", he shows his ability to rap over beats that are entirely meant to make you hyped. The production here is very good, as are the features namely the ones from Kanye West, Jhene Aiko, and Lil Wayne. Big Sean's third full-length effort is nowhere near a classic, nor will it be one of the best albums of 2015, but it is a good album that shows his constant progression. ![]() Registered S7, S22 Challenge Cup Champion ![]() Registered S1, S3, S4, S6, S13, S19 and S28 Challenge Cup Champion Quote:Originally posted by Spangle@Mar 2 2015, 02:13 PM no n word pls ![]() ![]() Registered S7, S22 Challenge Cup Champion Quote:Originally posted by JayTee The Shark@Mar 2 2015, 05:30 PM ALL DAY ***** What do you think, JT?

<div align="center">The Ecology - Fashawn: Album Review
![]() Guess Who’s Back Really like the sample on this. Fashawn has a great cadence and he can spit. I mean, from the track title it is basically Fashawn announcing to the world that he is back from a hiatus. It is nice to see him back. “Far from Lynchburg/but I know where niggas…..hang.†That line and “Before any itinerary, I made 57 visits to the cemetery†are both chill inducing. Fashawn is a guy hip-hop needs back in the game and this track was a good re-introduction. Confess This is some reggae type sample with a whistle and drum beat. Not really feeling about this one. It sounds kind of like a radio single which is fine but it seems more lazy and rehashed than it does sound effortless. Still a great flow and he drops some good bars like, “Forget the title, you couldn’t hold my attention.†Overall the track falls flat. Something to Believe In ft. Nas & Aloe Blacc Track is very triumphant. Sick guitar riff to start it off coming straight off some muddy blues of the 60s. Then the drums and trumpets come in and good god is it beautiful. He has an Eminem “They Way I am†flow at a certain point which is cool. Aloe Blacc kills it as per usual. He has one of the best soul voices of the last ten years and it really adds to this title mentality track. Then Nas comes in…. GOD. “Money getter til I’m a one percenter†is just one of the great bars the kid from NYC drops. He absolutely murders this track and out does Shawn all over this. Higher Pretty simple but nice beat. “Even some doctors to have the patience to wait for me creatively.†I don’t know why but it is a nice line. It is a really introspective joint that Fashawn is known for. Beat is basically a piano loop and simple drums but it works well for the minimalistic and introspective approach Fashawn is going for on this joint. Second verse is him wondering if he still has what it takes to keep doing this shit and it ends with, “Back on the road but my daughter textin me/daddy come home.†It does put in perspective that at the end of the day this is a job. Great track. To Be Young ft. BJ The Chicago Kid “Peep the crime, the guns, the drugs, the thugs.†This is his me as a youngin track with his buddy catching a charge for a murder. I love the beat, it is kinda higher paced than Higher. I am usually not a BJ Chicago fan but he was nice on this shit. Second verse about the father figure in his life who looks like LeBron but doesn’t dunk, instead slangs white. This is a fantastic track as well. Golden State of Mind ft. Dom Kennedy I guess this is the west coast version of the Nas track. A lot more about the colors that run the north of Cali and talking about how you have to be tough to survive. “It ain’t all palm trees and golden women.†It paints the real cali and not the fun Cali that you experience while on Vacay. Dom has a nice verse about Cali being a hard place to live. He is pretty monotone but it comes off nice here. Fashawn finishes it off paying tribute to the legends like Mac Dre. It is a real sweet song about what made Fashawn the rapper he came to be. Beat is smooth as fuck as well. Letter F Starts with a muppets sample which is cool and something you hear…… Well never. “The rugged and rough type, walkin in scuffed nikes.†I don’t get the track but he talks about the letter F and uses a bunch of words that start with F. He also has a line talking about having a dick bigger than Nick Cannon which makes ya take a double take. Piano is very heavy on this album which is fine because piano is great. I don’t know what word he wants to be called with the letter F. Makes no sense to me but the track is nice. Place to Go A lot smoother beat. Something you would get from like a G-Funk or Ice Cube it was a good day time steez. Honestly it sounds heavenly. It just puts you in a mood. “Instead of BET its ebt, where dreams don’t make it past the TV Screen.†A lot of his verses are about him making it out of a place where a lot of people don’t make it. It is tired and redundant but Fashawn finds a way to refresh it. Man of the House Maybe my favorite track on the album. All about him choosing rap over selling drugs and falling victim to the streets. He talks about wanting to do right by his family and make sure they can live easy no matter how hard it was for him. “Berlin wall, taj mahal/Felt like I knew how to run before I could crawl.†Fashawn has that typical absentee father deal. He really pours his soul on this track. “He was chasin pussy instead of seein me†and really how he was more of a man than he ever was. It is a real personal track and I love it. Out the Trunk A real trunk knocker…No pun intended. No but for real this is the heavy hitter of the album with a Busta Rhymes sample on it. This is also produced by Exile who is amazing. It has a werid instrument that I cannot figure out but god does this have a 2005 trap/west coast ay bay bay type feel. Not much to say as it is short but great. It’s a Good Thing ft. Aloe Blacc & Choosey Then we transition to a 60s cali hippie type beat with a clap and acoustic guitar. I chuckled at “You take the L on your back while your lady takes the rest.†Choosey was whatever on this track where he talks about leaving sirens and gangbanging and now trying to figure out how to make the most money he can. It is meant to be an uplifting track but it falls flat in that regard. But man is the beat great and Fashawn and Blacc do their thing on it. I mean Aloe drops an actual verse on this and while it is much the same as what the other two rapped about, it is cool to hear the singer drop a legit 16. Mother My other favorite track on this. It is sappy and personal but it is cool all the same. In the era of Drake it is acceptable to rap like this. It is an ode to his mother who tried hard as she could while battling an addiction. “Always made a home even without a house.†He talks about having to grow up quickly and care for his entire family as a young kid while his mother struggled with crack. It is a harsh reality of where Fashawn comes from but he is triumphant in his message and is part of the reason I love this album. FTW For the Win. It is a good exclamation point to a great album. The beat starts with a 80s dance inspired flare which is something that was heavily used in the end credits of big movies of the 80s. He is distorted on this track a bit which is weird but it is cool and gives a classic feel to it. Honestly this was a great album and a good closer. Overall this is a tremendous return for Fashawn, the rapper out of Golden State. This is his first album in six years since his debut Boy Meets World which is a must listen for anyone who is a hip-hop fan. It was amazingly lyrical while retaining swag and high levels of beats. This album is more of the same. The title and concept of the album entails exploring the "ecology" of one's environment: the people, objects, and events surrounding one's life, the things that provoke human behavior, how individual choices lead to different paths, and how everyone and everything is ultimately interconnected. This features production from Kalil and Alchemist but Exile handles the bulk of this record and his beats are just fantastic. The man is a legend in the rap game and he hasn’t been doing this for long. Fashawn is not slouch on the mic. He is very introspective and touches on what it was like to make it big in the rap game at only 21 and how he has handled it. He has tracks talking about growing up in a harsh area and dealing with a druggie mom and a criminal father all while having to grow up quick. He is a remarkable man and has made two fantastic albums. This is my early favorite for Rap album of the year. 8.8</div> ![]() ![]() Banned Most Hated
