Jon Bellion - FATHER FIGURE
90

Whew, I've been out of the writing reviews game for so long that this is my first rating for 2025, damn lol. Might start writing frequently again as I do enjoy it! Now for the album. This is Jon's returning album after being on a family hiatus since 2018. Jon's been writing and producing here and there, dropped the labels, claimed back his masters and now he's essentially free to do whatever he wants. I've been unsure of the direction Jon has been heading in recently, ... read more

Clairo - Charm
84

Holy heck, this is my first time getting into Clairo's music and I'm very impressed.

Clairo has got such a great knowledge of knowing how something should sound as well as creating an overarching aesthetic that she sticks to throughout the entirety of the project. When I was thinking of words to describe the album, I was stuck for words to say because the title of the album describes this project perfectly.

The album although released in summer, just gives me the vision of blossom ... read more

Common - The Auditorium Vol. 1
90

Common has been a legend in the Hip-Hop genre for a long time, yet every time he drops it's pure magnificence when it comes to the sound and feel. His longevity is undeniable, to be able to create albums like these after a long career is a pure testament to his skill as an MC.

This album is sultry, smooth and soulful. Hip-Hop in its purest form. Common floats over these beats like he did back in 2005 when he dropped 'Be', and he hasn't missed a step at all. I also love his ... read more

Eminem - The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)
85

Sorry but this website review bombing Eminem might be more corny than anything Eminem could ever say, it's beyond played out.

Well, it's 2024 and Eminem is back with conceptual album 'The Death of Slim Shady' that explores the premise of wrestling with a previous era Slim Shady, whilst rapping on today's generational subjects. What I will say here is that conceptually the album really works when it works. However, there are some things holding the album back, which I ... read more

Don Toliver - HARDSTONE PSYCHO
76

Don Toliver is back after only a year since his last release! In 2023, Don dropped 'Love Sick' which received a very mixed response from the Hip-Hop/R&B community. From my perspective it wasn't a terrible album, it definitely had some decent tracks but it was far from his best work.

Fast forward to 2024, Don drops the 'BANDIT' single which singlehandedly turned the reception from lukewarm to actually anticipating his next album release.

'HARDSTONE PSYCHO' begins triumphantly. High ... read more
