After 4 years, 1 month, and 10 days of waiting, Frank Ocean has finally released his newest album, Blond. A couple listens in, I decided to take a shot at doing a track-by-track review of the long awaited album.
After his last album GO:OD AM, it was pretty impossible to guess where Mac Miller would take his talents next. With albums and mixtapes such as Watching Movies with the Sound Off, Faces, K.I.D.S., and many others, it’s pretty hard to top such an extensive discography. However, four days ago when Mac Miller sent out […]
Unlike the lull of Houston traffic this past Tuesday night, Vince Staples and Rocky Black turned the intimate setting of The Studio at Warehouse Live upside down.
Chicago native, Chance the Rapper (Chancelor Bennett) has been little brother to hip-hop elite, Kanye West for a minute now—even contributing lyrics to the songs, “Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1,” “Ultralight Beam,” “Famous,” “Feedback” and “Waves” off of Ye’s avant-garde release, The Life of Pablo. The two even performed “Ultralight Beam” Saturday Night Live this past February, […]
It is safe to say that the Flatbush Zombies made a comeback this year. In 2013, the trio dominated the scene before drifting into the shadows. Their 2-year hiatus left fans wondering when the group would return. Now that the New York rappers have resurfaced, it only makes sense that fans lined up for their […]
Houston’s rap scene has had a division of North and South sides ever since Swishahouse popped up on the Northside in the late Nineties in response to the rising prominence of DJ Screw and the Screwed up Click both have contributed some of the biggest names that have come out of the H, but the […]
Coast Vega is a threat. When you listen to his music, you will wonder why you’ve never heard of this kid. A true nomad, the rapper has touched each coast. His music style derives from the inspiration of his experiences, The Dungeon Family and country music.
Last time, The Aspiring Me gave us an exclusive listen his OK, Whatever album before it’s release. Now, the rapper is back at it again with the fire tracks!
Last Thursday night Young Thug dropped Slime Season 3 giving the hip hop community yet another Thugger album. At 8 tracks, this is the shortest project that Thugger has given his fans, but luckily it is much easier to digest after the first few listens. http://gty.im/478838649
Since the release of The Life of Pablo less than two weeks ago, Yeezy season has been reawakened within the hip-hop community. Among the endless “Father Stretch My Hands” memes and Kanye tweets, a video directed by Steve McQueen for Kanye’s All Day has also resurfaced.
The last two years has certainly been a journey for Anderson .Paak. From being an opener for Watsky’s All You Can Do Tour, releasing his first debut studio album “Venice,” to being a key feature on Dr. Dre’s “Compton,” it’s no surprise to see .Paak has outdone himself once again on his newly released project, “Malibu.”
Kendrick and J. Cole have surprised the internet this past Friday by both releasing two tracks where they cover each other’s beats. After treating yourself to plenty of platefuls of thanksgiving goodies and late night shopping, prepare to treat your ears to Kendrick Lamar’s and J. Cole’s “Black Friday”s.
The internet is an endless vortex that can easily suck you in, and before you know it, it’s 2 am and you’re looking at D.I.Y. videos on YouTube with no actual intentions of going through with any of the projects. It was one of those nights when I decided I needed to step up my music game. […]
On Oct. 21, 2014, Robert Bryson Hall II, better known as Logic, brought us his debut album, Under Pressure.

On October 16th, up-and-coming multi-genre artist Raury dropped his album, All We Need. With features including Wu Tang’s RZA and Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello, you can immediately tell the mix throughout just by looking at the track list.
In a touching “Kanye-inspired” tribute to his friends, family, and current “Family Matters” tour, Chance The Rapper gives us a taste of what happens backstage in his new video, “Family Matters.”
Kid Cudi rose to fame with the music from his first two Man On The Moon projects. Once fans recently discovered his plans to release “Man On The Moon 3,” they got excited thinking he was going back to his original sound. This was not the case, however, so Kid Cudi went to twitter to discuss […]
I know what you’re all thinking. Kanye West collaborated with another artist who’s not himself!?
