Billboard Return

 



So last week I did not post a weekly commentary as #1 for both sides did not change and there's not point in talking about the same songs over and over again. This week however, there are new songs. So here we go.





 First Person Shooter- Drake Ft J. Cole

I actually really like this song. This is the second time so far I've spoken about Drake, with the first being with Slime You Out. Personally I prefer this one over Slime You Out as the melody and the beat to this one is a BANGER! If you ever need a song to just hype you up, this is a good song for that job. One flaw I do have with the song though is that a little over halfway through the song, it completely changes the melody as if it were a different song (kind of similar to Sicko Mode accept that one changed 1 minute into the song). But overall, I highly recommend this song. 


 I Believe God- Jekalyn Carr

I am not familiar with Jekalyn Carr, this my first time listening to her music. It's fine enough, just not great. To me, she's basically saying the song title over and over again. And I'm not saying that's always a bad thing. It depends on the message of a song, especially in worship. If you're really saying something that not only glorifies God but speaks to others whether inside or outside of the church and repetitiveness is the best way you can do it, then go for it. I know a lot of gospel songs like that. But, if you're just saying the same thing and adding more power just to make yourself sound good, then it's a problem. This song is more in between. 


Anyway, those are my thoughts. Thanks for reading.

American Idol 2025 Thoughts: Day 1

  American Idol  has officially reached its live shows so that means it's time to start the commentaries. For those of you who didn't track these last year, here's an explanation; I will be saying my thoughts on the contestants and their performances. In typical 'me' fashion, I will rank each performance to #1. But unlike my normal lists, this will be from worst to best.  This will be starting the following week as today is just an introduction. Our Top 24 has been chosen and they are as follows;     Canaan James Hill (Platinum)             Gabby Simone  Zaylie Windsor                         Mattie Pruitt  Thunderstorm Artis                  Drew Ryn  Che                                     ...

First Day Of 2024/2025 Awards Race

  It is about that time of year again where Hollywood gives out its most prestigious awards to most of the time the least deserving. But that doesn't mean I'm not gonna pay attention like always. But this year we will be shaking things up a little. Allow me to explain; Here's How This Works: Each year, I will have a target subject I'm rooting for this season. When the nominations for each award show are announced, I will do a small commentary on whether or not the subject has a chance of winning. However, this year instead of focusing on just the target, I will also be focusing on those I think are frontrunners in different categories for the season as a whole, whether I'm rooting for them or not.  I will most likely say a last minute thought the day before the award show. I will be tracking down all the way up to the big dogs: THE OSCARS. The Awards: We will be focusing on 5 awards; -The Golden Globes -The BAFTA's -The Critics Choice -The SAG Awards and Of Cour...

Red One & The Best Christmas Pageant Ever

I present to you, a Christmas Double Review. Red One centers on The Rock and Captain America trying to find J.K. Simmons (Santa) after he's been kidnapped. The Best Christmas Pageant Ever  is obviously based on the book of the same name and of course involves throwing a Christmas pageant with some of the worst kids in existence.  Red One This was a very strange movie. I don't hate it as much as others do, but I see why people hate it. I will admit there were some parts that were a little too ridiculous and I didn't laugh as much as I would've liked. Also, with all due respect to Kiernan Shipka, she was not a good casting for the main villain. Her performance just didn't work for me. She wasn't intimidating at all, and she still looks like a child. I'm sorry but I just could not take her seriously. But I also feel it had some heartwarming moments as well, particularly involving Chris Evans' character and his son. I wouldn't say this movie was good, bu...
