This is a track relaseased by the Rapper Drake which features Jay z and Kanye West. This song was released of the album Views From the 6" which is set to be released on April 29. This album is being highly anticipate by many of Drake's fans including myself. This album was speculated to be released last year and nothing happened. Pop style has so far been a hit, being played on a lot of hip hop radio stations. With this song, it seems like Drake might be releasing another great album. Pop Style is a combination of great rappers all coming together. With this single more people have gotten pumped for the album. This track for me has so far been one of my favorites from his other songs released of the album. I hope that this album is great because I am ready to purchase it and show support to Drake. Now, I must just wait 4 more days to either listen to something great or something which should have never been released. With the 4 songs that he released so far, it looks like it will be a good "Views from the 6."
"Might not" is a single released this year by the artist Belly. At first when I heard this song, i thought that it was The Weeknd's track. I soon later found out that it was not The Weeknd's, but the rapper Belly's track. I first heard this song while I was working out in P.E. I later looked up the song and continued to enjoy it. I had never heard about the rapper Belly. Some people even feel like Belly kills the song, but I just keep enjoying the song the way it is. I feel that the Weeknd is really having a great year so far even though he has only been featured on songs. Something that was funny which I saw was that " Once The Weeknd is on the song it becomes his." This may sound harsh but it is kind of true because The Weeknd adds something special to every track that he is on. Might not has so far become a hit on the radio. It is repeatedly played,some might say because of The Weeknd and I agree. Hopefully The Weeknd can continue this great moment with other single of his own or featured on. This was a song released by the rapper Future ft The Weeknd . This song was released as a part of the album "EVOL" which was by Future. The release was on Christmas eve of the previous year. The Weeknd had tweeted before the release of the song that, "something special was coming." A few months later after its release this song has really become a hit. Future and The Weeknd went on to perform this song live on SNL, due to its popularity. The first time I listened to this song, I was really pleased with what I had heard. Both of these artist had a wonderful year last year in terms of music. This collaboration proved to be very effective because an excellent song came out of it. The Weeknd added something more to the track, both artist collaborated well giving us a deep and soft voice that complemented each other well. A music video was released by future for this song "Low Life." Although it took time for this song to become a hit, I new from the beginning that this song would be the special track form the album. i would give this song a 10/10 because it is a song that I really enjoy listening. This is a compilation album released by the rapper Kendrick Lamar. This album was released on March 4, 2016. The album was made up of unreleased finished songs which were performed at different live events. The album consists of 8 songs, which are all named untitled with a date at the end. Kendrick Lamar had not really talked about this project, so it was a surprise for many fans. This album was put on the number 1 spot of the billboard charts on the first week of its release. This shows why Kendrick Lamar is such a great artist. I found this album to be really good because of the sound and the lyrics he used. I really feel that I can continue to listen to this album over and over again. Kendrick Lamar had previously been linked to making a joint project with the rapper J Cole. The Cole and Kendrick project, was supposed to allegedly drop on February but it never ended up getting re;eased. Although, I had been waiting for the Cole and Kendrick project, I am still happy that Kendrick Lamar released such great music. I hope that this is not the last album this year, that we see from Kendrick Lamar. This is the 20th mix-tape released by the rapper French Montana. The release date was February 19, of this year. This mix-tape includes 14 tracks that include many featured artists like Travis $cott, Future, Kanye West... This mix-tape is centered around certain tragic aspects that French Montana has lived through in the past year or so. He talks about one of his friends being killed a few months ago, and his other friend being locked up without parole until the year 2045. In the album cover, he appears with his fellow friend who is locked up. This project has been one of the more successful projects from French Montana. He has always been in the shadow of other rappers and now he has delivers us a pretty descent project. I enjoyed a few songs on this mix-tape however, I don't see this project becoming big. I would give this mix-tape a rating of 7/10 because although I did really enjoy some songs, some songs just don't catch my attention. I felt that some of the songs on the mix-tape are the type of music that can be added to my playlist. I can just hope that more and more music will come out, so that this year will be a good year in the music community. This is the first album of 2016 from the rapper future. This album was released on the Feb, 6 with 11 tracks. This project had not really been promoted, so when future gave the release day for it, many fans were surprised. The only feature on the album is the artist, The Weekend, on " Low Life." Future had released a mix-tape previously like 2 or 3 weeks before EVOL. Purple Reign, his previous mix-tape, did not do very well because of its lack of promotion. However, although this album did not have promotion, it reached #1 in the billboard charts for the first week it had been released on. So far, this album has done pretty well selling the most albums so far of this year. With 2 releases from Future, it seems that this year will be filled with Future projects. I listened to this album on the first week of release, and I really enjoyed it. The rating I would give this album would be a 8.5. This is due to the fact that, although i did enjoy it, there are 1 or 2 songs which I did not enjoy. I would recommend this album to any Future fans who have not listened to it. This is a song released on a 4 track EP by the rapper Meek Mill. "War Pain", was released on January 30th, just an hour after drakes track "Summer Sixteen." On this track, Meek strengthens his claim that Drake uses a ghostwriter. Before this track, both rappers had been arguing about the accusations from Meek, in which he said that drake used a ghostwriter for their collaboration song "R.I.C.O." On War Pain, Meek Mill talks about things Drake said on "Summer Sixteen." What is strange about this, is that Drakes track had only been released an hour before Meek Mills track, and it would take much longer than that to record and talk about the things Drake said. Meek Mill has so far stated that, the alleged ghost writer of Drake slipped Meek mill the lyrics of the song "Summer Sixteen." Meek Mill said that he was just waiting for Drake to drop the track "Summer Sixteen" so that he could drop "War Pain" and prove that Drake does have a ghostwriter. The main focus of this song is to prove that Drake does not write his own lyrics. I listened to the song and realized that Meek Mill had a point. Drake has a lot of clearing up to do if he wants to maintain his good reputation. With Drake having won the last round, it seems like Meek Mill came back strong and won this one. Meek was not very contempt about loosing, and now he has proven he can also win. This is the latest song released by the rapper drake. This song was released on January 30th, with this song being the first release of the year for Drake. "Summer Sixteen", is the first single, released from the upcoming Drake album "Views From The 6." Drake has now officially announced that the album will be dropping in April. In the song, Drake takes everyone back to the day when he dropped the Meek Mill diss track "Back to Back". Drake claims that the night of the release of "Back to Back", he was in a hotel room above meek mills room. That night, he played the song over and over playing 100 times throughout the night. On "Summer Sixteen", Drake also turns his attention towards president Obama, for stating that Kendrick would beat drake on a one on one rap battle. Not only Obama and Meek Mill are mentioned in this song but also Artist Kanye West, Jay Z, Chris Brown, and Tory Lanez. In my opinion, I see this album to possibly be one of Drakes most imperative albums, this due to the fact that Drake is on his game right now. I am excited to listen to this album because I have been waiting for it since last year. This is a mix-tape released by the rapper future. This mix-tape was released was released on January 17, 2015. This mix-tape was not really expected by much people because the rapper future had not really talked about this project. This project was produced by both metro boomin and Dj Esco. The project contains 13 songs with no features. This project by Future has been more benevolent because it seems that Future has let out his strong feelings in the last albums. This album he sounds more like a more softer and nicer person. In one song called "Purple Reign" he states over and over "I just need my girlfriend." On the first day that this mix-tape came out I listened to it and I really enjoyed most of the songs in it. I would really recommend this to future fans and hip hop listeners because it is a really great mix-tape. I really enjoyed this because with future, metro, and Esco all collaborating it was destined to be something great. I was really happy when I heard that the project had been released because I knew that it wouldn't let me down. I hope that this year can live up to last year in the aspect of hip hop music.
