Young Jeezy -Thug Motivation 103: Hustlerz Ambition

Atlanta trap-star Young Jeezy is set to release his fourth solo album on December 20th through Def Jam records. TM:103 consist of the lifestyle Young Jeezy once lived as the neighborhood "Snowman" mixed with a few hood love songs for the ladies. Most of the instrumentals on this album are sure to make heads nods with the heavy 808 and synth-assisted beats. I'm Not sure if it was purposely done, but almost every track on this album has big named guest appearances from Jay-Z to Ne-yo. One of my favorite songs on this album is feature by Andre 3000 and Jay-z called "I Do" as all three artist basically say "I Do"  TM:103 features many artist such as Lil Wayne, Ti, Jill Scott and many more. Overall this album just might be his best on yet and if your a fan of Young Jeezy's music you wouldn't be disappointed. I give Young Jeezy's "Thug Motivation 103" 3.5/5 Mics.

Recommended Tracks "What I do(Just Like That)" "I Do," "All We Do."

Anthony Hamilton: Back To Love album Review

Anthony Hamilton's "Back To Love" is the seventh album from the 40 year-old soul singer. I heard plenty of songs from Anthony Hamilton in the past, but this is the first time I listened to a complete album from him. While listening to "Back To Love" I got the sense that I was hearing an album from the 90's with Anthony Hamilton's throwback style. One song that I really enjoyed on this album is "Baby Girl" where he tells a story about a young lady who got her life back on track. Although this album has a few good songs I wasn't to please with more than half of them for many reasons. This album don't have many guest appearances in fact, it only has one by R&B artist Keri Hilson and she features on a song called "Never Let Go." I give Anthony Hamilton's "Back To Love" 3/5 Vocal Cords.

Recommended Tracks "Who's Loving You," "I'm Ready," "Pray For Me."

50 Cent: The Big Ten Mixtape Review

Jamaica queens rapper 50 Cent been dropping albums and Mixtapes for over ten years so, he decided to titled his latest Mixtape "The Big Ten." While listening to this Mixtape you can clearly tell that 50 Cent is hungry again. On "The Big Ten" you will get the typical gutter music from 50 Cent and more with a song called "Wait until Tonight." Even though this mixtape only has ten songs, I can honestly say I enjoyed most if not all of the songs. This Mixtape Features artist like Kid Kid, Paris and Tony YaYo. I give 50 cent's Mixtape "The Big Ten" 3/5 Mics.

Recommeded Tracks "You Took My Heart," "Stop Cryin," "Put Ya Hands Up."

T-Pain:Revolver Album Review

T-pain returns with his forth solo album revolver, this album debuted at No.25 on the Billboard charts selling 34,000 copies in the first week. Revolver delivers vibrant club-loving songs over a heavy bass thump and searing siren squeak. This album doesn't offer a wide variety of different songs, but most of the songs are ok. One song that stood out on this album is "Best Love Song" where T-Pain and Chris Brown sort of sing a duet. The combination of T-pain's auto tune and Chris Brown didn't go together very well. Overall if your a fan of T-pain's music then you would like this album. Revolver Features artist like Ne-Yo, Lil wayne, Pitbull and more. I give T-Pain's album "Revolver" 2.5/5 Vocal Cords.

Recommended Tracks "5 O'clock," "Turn All The Lights On," and "Rock Bottom."

The Roots: Undun Album Review

The Roots released their tenth studio album Undun. This album debuted at No.16 on the Billboard charts, selling 48,000 copies in the first week. Undun is a concept album about the downfall of a young man, Redford Stevens, told backwards from the point of his death. This album has many different vibes with the combination of electric piano, echoey organ vibrations and scudding R&B grooves. This isn't your typical album but, it is definitely a great piece of work. This album Features artist like Big k.r.i.t, Bial, P.o.r.n and more. I give The Roots Undun 4/5 Mics

Recommended Tracks "The Other side," "Make My," and "One Time"
