Share: The first round of the ‘Big Three’ beef has concluded and in a span of one month, we got three albums, two diss tracks (kind of), and one participant turned casualty. Coming into the fight there was a wide consensus that Drake for some reason was at the bottom of the pole, but after this preliminary round, it’s time to throw that list away and actually get it right this time. What reignited the Cold War feud into the fiery onslaught it is now …

Growing up is not a ‘Bad Idea Right?’
Share: When the magic fades away, the world looks the other way.

The ‘Carnival’ is inevitable, so don’t judge fans for Kanye’s circus act
Share: Kanye’s tour is coming. Don’t know when, and definitely don’t know how, but it’s coming. After he gets out of the social prison of cancellation someone you know will be attending. And when they do, they shouldn’t get criticism for wanting to witness one of the greatest artists perform. As of late there isn’t really too much to discuss regarding Mr. West, no questionable or wild statements. The most we’ve heard from him is from the recent collaboration album “Vultures 1” with singer Ty …

‘Era’s Tour’ captures the intimate concert experience on the big screen
Share: It’s March of 2023, and life is not great. A slew of personal issues and the fact that I had missed out on tickets to Taylor Swift’s highly anticipated “Eras Tour” had me feeling really bummed. But one day while out with my family I heard the magic words that every Swiftie wanted to hear, “Congratulations! You got tickets to Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour!” To say I was ecstatic wouldn’t properly convey everything running through my head. Fast forward to Aug 4, and …
Demon Doja and Lil Lucifer: Is satanic promo worth the fall?
Share: Upside down crosses, devilish tattoos, and demon talk- is it all an act for clicks and streams or is it authentic and genuine? Does it even really matter?

Let ‘For All The Dogs’ out, and take it for a walk
Share: After a full season of teasing, Drake released his creative collection of recent albums with the highly anticipated “For All The Dogs” leaving me a little frustrated and unsatisfied, on the first listen.

The project opened up with “Virginia Beach” a smooth and poetic …
