Back like Jordan, wearin the 4-5

I do apologize, I have neglected my duties as a writer. But I am going to make a conscious effort to do better. Actually, I'm really trying to figure out what I want this blog to be about. I KNOW for sure I want music as the main feature, but I feel like that has the potential to become boring, so I'm thinking of adding more entertainment and commentary about some things going on in this lovely world we live in. But for this post, we'll keep it strictly music

I'm a few weeks late, but Wale's Attention Deficit...GOOD music. I'm not a big Wale fan personally, but the CD is very very good. For once I felt like I was listening to music that had meaning. I feel like Wale is hated on a lot personally, but all that aside, the music is great. Some of my favorites are Beautiful Bliss(where J. Cole decided to just murder his entire verse) 90210, Diary ft. Marsha Ambrosius, Prescription(he goes off in the last minute or so of the song). If you haven't checked it out, you should definitely do so. This is actually an album I would say you need to BUY as opposed to download. Support real music

Also, late again, Lil Wayne has dropped a mixtape, "No Ceilings." I am really not much of a Wayne fan. Granted, I like his music, but I feel like lyrically, he's not the best. Most of everything he talks about are metaphors, and if you listen to most of his songs, the same metaphors switched up, with different nouns replacing what was in the last rhyme. I just feel he's overrated. But everybody else seems to love him so why not?! But the mixtape is decent. It's been quite a while since he did one so it's good to know he's still got it. Here's the link if you wanna download it(even though you probably already have it, as I am like two weeks late) Download No Ceilings here

And last but not least, Ms. Rihanna herself. Finally out with her new album Rated R. I told myself I would not BUY her album. I have ALWAYS been a Rihanna supporter, bought every one of her albums, found myself dressing like her, cutting my hair like hers, the works. I supported her up until she did that interview with Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America, only because I feel like she tried extra hard to throw Chris Brown under the bus. I DO NOT SUPPORT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, but I also believe there is more to the story, but we won't get into that. Back to the album. Rated R. Veyr dark album, BUT I really do enjoy it. Some of the songs that stand out Fire Bomb(my personal favorite) Hard ft. Jeezy, Te Amo, Rude Boy, G4L. But collectively, the CD is pretty good. I just wish she would get out of this whole dark stage she's going through, but to each his own. I will say, I was shocked at how much she cursed on the CD. I would say it's not an album for her younger fans. (I was pretty upset when I heard my 9 year old niece singing the lyrics to Russian Roulette) But sample the album, if you like it, go grab a copy. Now, I won't be purchasing the album, but if you like it, you definitely should.
