Mr. Davis

Gucci Mane dropped a new album this weekend, named "Mr. Davis." Gucci is known for dropping albums and mixtapes all the time - in 2016 he dropped 3 albums, "Everybody Lookin", "Woptober", and "The Return of East Atlanta Santa", and has already dropped 2 albums this year. Along with quantity, Gucci continues to deliver quality music as well, and this album is nothing short of quality.

The album is a mixture of songs with big name features and solo songs. "I Get the Bag" is a smash hit from the album featuring Migos, who have been discussed on this blog page on their stardom. This song really helped boost the anticipation of the album with a killer hook by Quavo, clean first verse from Takeoff, and a finishing verse from Gucci himself. This song is the biggest debut for Gucci, and is the highest the single has reached on the Hot 100 chart ever. Along with this song, features on the album include Big Sean, Nicki Minaj, Slim Jxmmi from Rae Sremmurd, and ScHoolboy Q to name a few.

Below is the music video for "I Get the Bag", which was released the same day that the song was. I definitely recommend giving this album a listen!

Metal Artists Mad at Pop Stars Wearing their Shirts

Image
Some of the old school rockstars and metal artists have been upset about pop stars of the 2000's wearing some of their t-shirts. It started with a tweet from Dee Snider, the frontman of the band Twisted Sister, when he called the new trend of non-metal artists wearing metal t-shirts as "sickening" and later says that the skulls and metal horn imagery belongs to the metal bands exclusively. Among the pop stars that are wearing these metal t-shirts are Justin Bieber, Kanye West, and Rihanna to name a few. Kanye West in particular has used these metal-esque images in his clothing lines, borrowing from bands such as Iron Maiden in order to make his images on t-shirts and other clothing. Beyonce has been using the logo of the band Slayer on t-shirts but instead saying "Slayonce" on her tour shirts. Slayer guitarist Gary Holt accused Beyonce of appropriation for using the log and styling of the bands logo without permission. However, not all metal artists are upse...

SUPER SLIMEY - Future + Young Thug Collab Album

Image
Future and Young Thug have made themselves big name rappers in the hip hop/rap scene. They have both proven themselves and to others that they are here to stay, and don't plan on leaving any time soon. Both rappers have their own unique style of trap music, which originated in the south in Atlanta, Georgia. Future and Young Thug dropped a surprise album this weekend titled "SUPER SLIMEY" which features just the two artists with one feature, Offset from Migos. The idea behind the album is that the two rappers try to out rap each other on their own songs on the album and also rap together on songs. The album is honestly nothing special - it is a pretty stereotypical trap sounding album featuring the two artists. It has a very "Future Vibe" in the sense that it just sounds a lot like Future's songs and albums that he drops. The beats and production used are pretty standard trap sounding. An interesting thing about the album is the cover art, shown below. It...

R.I.P. Malcom Young

2017 has not been the best year, I think we can all agree on that. It seems like every day I wake up to some bad news, or something happens every week where I just shake my head and wonder wtf is going on in life. We lost another rock legend this year, Malcom Young of AC/DC. AC/DC is one of the greatest rock bands to ever grace this earth, with heavenly jams such as "Back in Black", "Highway to Hell", "Thunderstruck", "Hell's Bells".... the list goes on. Malcom, along with his brother Angus, both founded the band AC/DC in 1973 and the rest was history. Malcom Young had been struggling with a long battle with dementia which ultimately lead to his death. Unfortunately, too, his older brother George Young passed away a few weeks before Malcom. It is probably a very tough time for Angus right now. Malcom's legacy will live on as one of the best rhythm guitarists that ever lived in a legendary band thats music will never die. Below is a trib...
