Now Playing: July 2025
Hi everyone! I will admit, I have been super busy these past few months, which is why content has slowed significantly. However, I came back to post what I have been listening to throughout July!
Concert Review - “Glad You Came” Tour by Mario
Concert junkie here, and you know what’s better than a concert? Traveling to somewhere different to go to a concert. Across the border from Detroit to Sweden, to see my fave! Judge your Mama! A time was had.
Album Review - “Scorpio” by Madison McFerrin
Scorpio by Madison McFerrin is a beautiful vocal display by the songstress that highlights the rollercoaster of the trials of love, from seeing the worst version of yourself to understanding how a former lover may have been an unstable anchor to your life, Madison manages to take these talking points to grace us with an anthem that captures every spectrum of the relationship emotion through the 30+ minute project.
Album Review - “Who Can Blame Niko” by Niko Noir
Who Can Blame Niko is a story of finding consistent routes of relatability with the singer in all the worst ways. Whether that be relationships, overthinking, or finding tranquility in a world where irritation is around every corner.
Project Review - "Jewelz" by Crystal Crave
Crystal Crave is a breath of fresh air in the hip-hop community. A unique talent that knows the potential is there and, if nothing else, possesses the confidence to unabashedly flaunt her talents to the masses with what can only be described as an audio middle finger to opposition and naysayers alike.
Album Review - “Godfidence” by Madd keys
Metaphors for sports and rap are always a hand-in-hand partnership. There's no way around the coach and quarterback comparison when examining the relationship between a rapper and his producer.
Now Playing: April 2025
This month, has been an interesting assortment of songs that I have been absolutely obsessed with. Below, you can check out my favorite songs of April 2025.
Album Review - “I Feel Different Every Day (Delux)” by ChlotheGod
ChlotheGod musically is simultaneously a musical throwback to unfiltered emotional strength and a flash-forward with melodic creativity, willing to borrow elements from multiple genres to get her point across.
Song Review - Odyssey by MADD KEYS and Dope Sean
“Odyssey” by MADD KEYS and Dope Sean is a hip-hop psychedelic that features thumping drums, relaxing lyrics, and soothing energy.
Now Playing: March 2025
This month, I have decided to begin adding a new blog featuring my favorite songs for the month. There may be some overlapping songs from month to month because I have a bit of an obsessive personality. Below, you can check out my favorite songs of March 2025.
Concert Review: Millennium Tour
The ladies of my era all remember the Scream Tours, and I can honestly say I attended everyone starting back when I was in middle school. These tours were full of young heartthrob artists such as Lil Bow Wow, the original face of those tours, B2K, Mario, IMX, Pretty Ricky, and more.
Predicting The Album of 2025
Predicting the top albums of 2025.
With mainstream artists like FKA Twigs and The Weeknd releasing albums in January, I decided to enlist the help of my artistic friends to get their opinions on who they believe will have the best album of 2025.
Fresh off the highs of the 2024/2025 Grammys, each prediction is purely hypothetical and 100% fun. Enjoy.
Concert Review - Trevor Jackson at The El Club
I fell in love. This show has 100% set the bar for the rest of the year.
Single Review - “Escape” by Anwar Sadot
It has certainly been a long time coming, but Anwar Sadot has finally returned with a new single titled “Escape” featuring artist Field. Prior to this single, the last time we heard from Sadot musically was pre-Covid times and his stellar album Clarity.
The Best Albums of 2024
It has been a great year for music. From genre debuts from all-time great artists to legendary hip-hop feuds, this year has set a new benchmark in terms of quality, success, and innovation. These are my top 20 ….eh… 21 albums of 2024.
Album Review - “Vengeance Be Mine” by London Beck
Vengeance Be Mine by London Beck is both an internal therapeutic release by the multi-talented instrumentalist and an audio-actual adventure that highlights Beck's ability to take listeners on a journey that's equal parts fun, invigorating, swaggering, and downright imaginative when need be.
Album Review - “If It’s Meant To Be” by Chris Paris
What is it like to be a hopeless romantic and a R&B singer?
Are your melodies captured under rain-soaked windows while your songs are written on tear-stained sheets of paper?
Are your conversations marked by nostalgic memories with past lovers, wondering what could have been, or are they simply lovers looking to escape the dating lifestyle?
Album Review - “Just Listen” by Sam Watson
Modern Day R&B is a fun concept. Subject matter-wise, the topics remain much the same, exploring romantic relationships in different dynamics, whether sexual, argumentative, or everything in between. However, the modernity of the art comes in its deliverance, where the singer enters a more hip-hop-ish space.
Concert Review - Anderson .Paak & The Free Nationals
Anderson .Paak & The Free Nationals decided to take a stop in the Motor City at the Michigan Lottery Amphitheatre on Saturday, October 5th with special guests Maurice Brown and GAWD!
