Sometimes when we listen to music, it’s easy to get taken away to a lifestyle that will never be feasible to great majority of us. Popping bottles every week deals more with Miller High Life® than Patrón. Partying with video vixens is cool when its written on paper and constructed in your mind. And driving the latest luxury cars sounds great, but most would settle for a job that pays $50,000 a year and no student loans. Read the rest of this entry »

If I had a dollar for anytime a female I knew uttered the now classic phrase, “Men N#ggas ain’t sh#t,” I, too, could sit court side and trip referees. Whether it’s true or not is an entirely different argument and one I’m not truly ready to tackle at the moment. But Lyfe Jennings sure as hell is. Read the rest of this entry »

The Chef’s whipped up some more OBC4L2 goodness in the form of “Catalina.” With it being such a cinematic track in audio form, it’s good to see that the video brought that story to life. Read the rest of this entry »

We should have all seen an album of this nature coming from Ghostface. While Brother Starks has had his feet planted firmly in the Shaolin slums with legendary street tales, his catalogue has always featured a smattering of songs displaying the triumphs and tragedies of attempts to conquer the fairer sex. From the unrepenting “Wildflower” to becoming mesmerized by the likes of “Beauty Jackson,” Ghostface has been known for stacking his escapades with honesty and sharp detail. Going all in for the gusto, Mr. Coles’ latest endeavor, Ghostdini: The Wizard of Poetry in Emerald City, is a smorgasbord of R&B flavored tunes with that special Ghost twist.

Lyfe Jennings probably has one of the most distinctive voices in R&B of recent years. Fortunately, he’s enjoyed relative success, striking platinum and gold with his first two albums when he hasn’t exactly been a monster on the Billboard charts. This can be attributed to his first two albums being structured in such a way that it was hard to choose singles. The songs were all preceded with a skit in which he explained the song and how it related to his life. The aforementioned albums received critical acclaim but individually it left a feeling like you are missing out on the story of the album.

Surprisingly his newest album, Lyfe Change, is a break away from his previous formula. Although there are no skits in between each track, the album flows together smoothly, with plenty of noteworthy tracks that can be lauded for their positive messages and solid production.
