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 Day 2: Top 24

  I would like to say that for the first week of live shows, a good majority of contestants either did REALLY good or better than they should have. I personally was very impressed with the last 2 days. With that being said, I still gotta rank. Today I will be ranking every single performance from worst to best. This ranking is solely based on my opinion. If you have not read last week's introduction, I highly suggest you read that first before this ranking;   Worst Performance Of The Week:  Baylee Littrell Happy - Pharrell This really kills me. Not sure what he was thinking with this song choice #23: Josh King I'm Still Standing - Elton John Him and Baylee equally sucked. But at least this song was more in Josh's league #22: Olivier Bergeron   I'm Not Okay - Jelly Roll He's kind of bland to me #21: Desmond Roberts Do I Do - Stevie Wonder Needs to calm down a little #20: John Foster Callin' Baton Rouge - Various Also kind of bland #19: Kyana Fanene I Am - St...
