Dodo's Album Reviews

Hello everyone, welcome back to my blog. Today, I will be reviewing Kanye's sophomore release, Late Registration. After the success that was The College Dropout , Kanye said "Eh, why not make a career out of this rap thing?" After a weird opening skit, we start with Heard 'Em Say, featuring Marron 5 vocalist, Adam Levine, who, somehow really works on this track, especially the soft, but jazzy instrumental. Touch The Sky is one of the more bombastic songs on here. The brassy instrumental works very well with the lyrical content, and is overall another great song. eyyy gold digger The skits on this album are pretty fire. Next we have Drive Slow, which is another one of the mellower songs on here. It's slow, and simple, another track I really liked. My Way Home is similiar to the previous track, only this time with a pitched down vocal sample. Cra ck Music is a bit of a lesser song, not because of the themes, but I really didn't surprise me in anyway. Roses is an...

  Hello everyone, welcome back to my blog. Today, I will be reviewing Kanye West's debut studio album, The College Dropout. After working as a producer for many big MCs at the time, we finally released his first hip hop album. Let's see what this fresh mind has to offer. The Intro skit features a man that sounds like he's constantly running out of breath, and then, we open with We Don't Care. At first, I found the song a bit off putting, however, with repeat listens, I started to enjoy it more and more. The production is also super clean. After a short interlude, we move onto All Falls Down, featuring a sample from Lauryn Hill. I love Kanye's flow on here, as if it dances around the singing in the sample. I'll Fly Away is a jazzy interlude, which leads us into my favourite song on the album, Spaceship. The smooth soul instrumental is amazing, and Kanye's bars describing how fed up he is with is job keeps me intrigued all the way through. Jesus Walks, as the ...

Hello everyone, welcome back to my blog. Today, I will be reviewing the collaboration between Kanye West and Jay Z, Watch The Throne. First of all, I will first be reviewing Kanye's side projects, and at the time of writing this post, I am two weeks away from reviewing Kanye's discography. Anyway, Watch The Throne is a collaboration between these two rap giants, but instead of being something like Bad Meets Evil, where Eminem and Royce da 5'9'', would show off theirtechnical skills, here we see Kanye and Jay rap together as a super duo. Let's see what this record has to offer. We open with No Church In The Wild, a moody opener, filled with pounding drums and some amazing synths. This song doesn't have a very complex instrumental, but it still goes hard. Lyrically, the song mostly talks about the place in which Kanye and Jay are, as being two incredibly powerful people in the business industry. Next we have Lift Off, featuring Beyonce, but I gotta say, her ho...
