"Talk That Talk" is another solid collection, complete with radio hits, club bangers, and introspective ballads on her favorite subjects: love and sex.

Yelawolf - Radioactive
Album Reviewsposted 7 months ago
"Radioactive" may veer towards the mainstream Pop, but nothing changes the fact that in an era of neon-Rap, Yelawolf is the bug light.

Pac Div - The DiV
Album Reviewsposted 7 months ago
"The Div" proves that no matter the circumstance, Pac Div is dedicated to making music too dope to be held back by industry f***ery.

Ludacris - 1.21 Gigawatts: Back To The First Time (Mixtape Review)
Album Reviewsposted 7 months ago
The crux of "1.21 Gigawatts: Back To The First Time" is a marked hunger that fans have not heard in Ludacris for some time; he still takes rapping seriously.

Tech N9ne's fourth release of his "Collabos" series "Welcome To Strangeland," is more than just music. It's tangible.

Drake - Take Care
Album Reviewsposted 7 months ago
"Take Care" is largely built out of the same materials as "Thank Me Later" and the album is overall more about refining his formula than expanding it.

Mac Miller - Blue Slide Park
Album Reviewsposted 7 months ago
Interestingly enough, "Blue Slide Park" doesn't do anything to damage Mac's current status in the game, but it also doesn't do much to raise it.

Pusha T - Fear Of God Part 2: Let Us Pray
Album Reviewsposted 7 months ago
"Fear of God II: Let Us Pray" may not be what Pusha T's fans have been waiting for, but manages to be a decent hold-over until that true debut actually comes.
-
Soulja Boy - Skate Boy (Mixtape Review)
Album Reviewsposted 7 months ago
It's not quite a full-on train-wreck rap moment, but the idea of Soulja Boy in 2011 is still something to gawp at - and usually in a briefly entertaining way.

Roots Manuva - 4Everevolution
Album Reviewsposted 7 months ago
Roots Manuva's eighth studio project "4everevoluton" solidifies his status as an original Hip Hop talent.
-
Wale - Ambition
Album Reviewsposted 7 months ago
"Ambition" is not Wale's attempt at gauging his success by his competitors. Rather, he's carved out his own lane with the music proving to be just as ambitious.

"Violence Begets Violence" may not draw too many new fans in, but it will serve to satisfy longtime supporters.

A$AP Rocky - Live.Love.A$AP (Mixtape Review)
Album Reviewsposted 7 months ago
"Long.Live.A$AP" is a good sketch of what A$AP Rocky is about, and should have you looking forward to the bigger picture he's capable of delivering.

Freestyle Fellowship - The Promise
Album Reviewsposted 7 months ago
"The Promise" is by all means a reintroduction to one audience and an introduction to another.
