Album Rankings for 2016

Another year, another list because everyone loves lists.

Kanye West - The Life of Pablo Review

Note: This review is for the version of the album available on 28/03/2016. If it's edited even more after this date, I may come back to this review with an update.

In the aftermath of Yeezus, Kanye West's ongoing battle with megalomania took more downward swings. He finally put a ring on Kim Kardashian despite his obvious crush on Beyoncé, he had another kid and gave him a stupid name because of course he would, he jokingly threatened to invade Beck's Grammy award before revealing in an interview afterward that he should have because he didn't respect artistry (yep, that Beck) and so much more that I'm keeping it to this paragraph.

He also kept talking about his new album called Swish like it was going to be the greatest thing in the history of ever.

Album Ratings for 2012

A Happy New Year...'s eve! As the final post of 2012; here's my rundown of every album/EP/B-side compilation I had the pleasure/displeasure of listening to throughout 2012. Some have already been reviewed (which have a hyperlink), but the vast majority will likely never be completed.

So yeah, have an awesome start to 2013 and see you soon!

Frank Ocean - channel ORANGE Review

There was something intensely annoying regarding Frank Ocean’s mixtape nostalgia, ULTRA. The obvious answer was the pretty cheap move of Ocean simply singing over well established songs with lyrics that either didn’t suit them or the fact that singing over something like Hotel California without it being, you know, Hotel California was, well…annoying to the senses.

Needless to say, these instances are absent on Ocean’s channel ORANGE (complete with more stylised lower case-CAPS LOCK lettering) and the album is the perfect showcase of Ocean’s large repertoire of talents.
