REVIEW : Kanye West - Jesus Is King

By Graham Wall in Reviews | 6 Comments

“Damn” is the only curse word you’ll hear on Kanye West’s latest album.* Jesus Is King is gospel rap, and not only in the usual sense. With the help of the Sunday Service Choir and Fred Hammond, the gospel influence is potent; although rhymes and beats are present, the latter are especially minimal.… Continued →

Song of the Day: Mars ILL - Inside Out

By Graham Wall in News | No Comments

Song of the Day: JustMe - Yougenics

By Graham Wall in News | No Comments

A couple weeks back, Brandon published an article about some of the issues American society faces today: partisanship, gun violence, and mental illness. One of the quotations that resonated with me was that “Libertarians are struggling to have their voice heard.” It got me thinking about one of my favourite hip-hop albums, Full Disclosure (2012) by JustMe, whose sharp lyrics express a distrust towards the U.S.… Continued →
