Danny Brown – Hot Soup (2008)

1. Intro – no rating 2. Dance: 7/10. Love this vibe, fun lyrics again. Definitely feels like a production upgrade already. 3. What up Doe: 7/10. “Matter fact popped Prince way I smoke purple.” Some hilarious lyrics. Love the beat on the verses, wish it had some hard bass on the hook. 4. Ten G’s…

Danny Brown – Detroit State of Mind (2007)

1. Intro: No rating – skit. 2. Get Down: 4/10. I know the beat of this. Seems so tame to the Danny I know. 3. Broadcaster: 6/10. Hard cadence, great lyrical content. 4. Don’t Give A: 5/10. First showing of his versatility. Giving bling era (which is my favourite). 5. It’s a Discription: 6/10. The…

1. Rock You Again (Again & Again): 2/10. electric guitar not my vibe, this flow is not for me, really do not like this. 2. Be Yourself: 3/10.

Whodini – Back in Black (1986)

Whodini – Escape (1984)

1. Five Minutes of Funk: 4/10. Sound reminiscent of previous album, still giving spooky thriller vibes. Fun concept but again an over 1 minute interlude that I wish wasn’t there. 2. Freaks Come Out at Night: 5/10. Love verse 3 on this one. Rap machine outro I actually didn’t mind this time, but another song…

Whodini – Whodini (1983)

1. The Haunted House of Rock: 5/10. Thriller-esque, spooky snappy snare with a typical rap scheme that I expect from this time period. Extended breakdown between verse 2 and 3 also reminds me of songs that are too long in this same period. No stand out bars but some funny call outs. 2. Nasty Lady:…
