KAMI & Smoko Ono – Very Slight Reaction

Dario HuntSeptember 21, 2018

I was a bit disappointed with KAMI's new sound as I really liked what he was doing before but the new direction will likely get him more mainstream ears and I still found myself bopping along on more than a few occasions....

Curren$y – Fire In The Clouds Reaction

Dario HuntSeptember 21, 2018

If you've had a hard time keeping up with the endless stream of music Curren$y puts out and skip one or two projects here and there, make sure you don't miss this one....

Russ- ZOO Reaction

Dario HuntSeptember 11, 2018

'ZOO' is Russ' best project yet and he continues to show why he's a real threat in hip-hop despite the hate saying otherwise....

Bas – Milky Way Reaction

Dario HuntSeptember 11, 2018

He seems content only playing to his core audience (and I'm one of them), but for a project that was widely touted as going to be his 'coming out party', things were played a bit too safe for my liking. It's another solid Bas project that won't do much to change people's opinions one way or another....

Eminem – Kamikaze Reaction

Dario HuntSeptember 4, 2018

This was no holds barred Eminem and from the opening track alone he shows everyone just how lethal he is on a mic and the sharp, concise, and focused nature of the album makes this one of his most realized albums yet....

Young Thug – Slime Language Reaction

Dario HuntSeptember 4, 2018

Young Thug's formula hasn't changed much and with younger, hungrier acts on the rise that seem to be doing his style to a higher degree, we're going to need to hear something more impactful if he's to remain relevant in music....

Mac Miller – Swimming Reaction

Dario HuntAugust 28, 2018

The Divine Feminine was the album that really made me a fan of his and on Swimming Mac Miller takes those silky smooth soundscapes and themes to a whole new level....

Nicki Minaj – Queen Reaction

Dario HuntAugust 28, 2018

Nicki Minaj's latest wasn't all hits but it far exceeded expectations and there's more than enough present to remind everyone why she blew up to such extraordinary heights in the first place. It's a shame though that she won't just let the music speak for itself....

Trippie Redd – LIFE’S A TRIP Reaction

Dario HuntAugust 28, 2018

I'll give Trippie Redd credit for crafting some genuinely compelling stuff on 'LIFE'S A TRIP' that shows there's more to him than meets the eye. That soundcloud sound still isn't my forte but LIFE'S A TRIP is one of the better offering out of this wave....

Iggy Azalea – Survive the Summer EP Reaction

Dario HuntAugust 27, 2018

Iggy Azalea's latest is a bit better than all the other generic, run of the mill, hyper-sexualized rap that floods the airwaves, but it's nothing that will really leave a lasting impact....

Travis Scott – ASTROWORLD Reaction

Dario HuntAugust 8, 2018

Travis Scott finally put together all of the pieces of his immense talent and crafted his most realized project yet. 'ASTROWORLD' is a complete experience from front to back that transports you to a world all of Scott's own making, and I don't plan on leaving anytime soon....

YG – Stay Dangerous Reaction

Dario HuntAugust 8, 2018

'Stay Dangerous' doesn't really elevate his career to any new heights but it doesn't negatively impact it either. It's a YG album full of everything you'd expect from a YG record and it does enough to keep things coasting along....

Denzel Curry – TA13OO Reaction

Dario HuntAugust 3, 2018

There's definitely some interesting concepts on the project, but as whole it didn't really deliver something very compelling - still leaving Denzel Curry on the outside looking in....

Dave East – Karma 2 Reaction

Dario HuntAugust 3, 2018

'Karma 2' doesn't do much in terms of pushing Dave East's craft forward but it is a very solid project that delivers on that signature gritty NY sound that his core fans expect from him....

Logic – “One Day” (ft. Ryan Tedder) Reaction

Jeff MitchellJuly 30, 2018

Dramatic piano-driven soul and uplifting lyrics make Logic and Ryan Tedder's "One Day" a very enjoyable listen....

Wiz Khalifa – Rolling Papers 2 Reaction

Dario HuntJuly 20, 2018

Like all of Wiz Khalifa's recent projects, 'Rolling Papers 2' has it's fair share of noteworthy moments, but that gap between the really good and the really bad is still wide as ever....

Death Grips – Year of the Snitch Reaction

Dario HuntJuly 12, 2018

It's volatile, angry, aggressive, and unrelentingly experimental - basically everything we've come to expect from a Death Grips project....

Future – BEASTMODE 2 Reaction

Dario HuntJuly 12, 2018

It's far from his best tape but it's still high quality mindless music that you can vibe and turn up too. If you're not expecting anything different from Future, then BEASTMODE 2 is right up your alley....

Meek Mill – Legends Of The Summer EP Reaction

Dario HuntJuly 12, 2018

Meek Mill's shown a ton of growth both personally and as an artist; no longer is everything just about rollies, cars, and women, but he touches on some real issues and does it exceptionally well....

Drake – Scorpion Reaction

Dario HuntJuly 2, 2018

It’s a good listen (Drake doesn’t put out bad listens), but there’s a whole lot that I like on 'Scorpion' but almost nothing I loved. I don’t think I’ve ever skipped through a Drake project as much as I have here. There’s still quotables for days but you gotta get through a lot of uninspired filler to get to it....

Freddie Gibbs – Freddie Reaction

Dario HuntJuly 2, 2018

If you know Freddie Gibbs then you already know his music is unapologetically hard, and 'Freddie' might be his hardest one yet. It's at the least, his most focused one. Only coming in at 10 tracks, there's not a moment, verse, or instrumental wasted....

Lecrae & Zaytoven – Let the Trap Say Amen Reaction

Dario HuntJuly 2, 2018

Where as others have typically used these beats to glorify the streets and 'trap' life, Lecrae takes aim at talking about the perils of that lifestyle and advocating for a better and at the least different way. It's not as jarring as you'd expect it to be as he's very subtle in the messaging and the focus is more on the musicality of it all....

Apollo Brown & Locksmith – No Question Reaction

Dario HuntJune 28, 2018

Apollo Brown definitely coasted on this one and it showed. It'll still make the catalog because I still love a good Apollo Brown beat but 'No Question' is one of his weakest efforts yet....

PHRESHER – PH Reaction

Dario HuntJune 28, 2018

Phresher's got a nice flow and voice and at times uses it to great effect to really elevate a song, and the production is generally solid throughout, but 'PH' ultimately comes off as feeling like just another collection of nondescript bangers....
