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.

Last Minute Music Reviews

  So here are some last minute reviews of songs that I've heard over the past few months that did not reach #1;   Where Is My Husband - Raye This is incredibly fun and strangely catchy. While this is not officially a jazz song, this obviously has jazz influence and it works very well for this song. I will go ahead and admit that this is my introduction to Raya, I have not listened to Oscar Winning Tears . So far, I'm intrigued.    Midnight Sun - Zara Larsson This song is kind of AWESOME. Not only is the production GORGEOUS, but it also has a very nice hook that goes smoothly with Larsson's voice. My sister actually recommended this song to me and I see why. Larsson does currently have a Grammy nomination for this. She's gonna lose, but I'm glad this song got recognized. If my sister see's this, thank you.   How It's Done - Huntrix (From KPop Demon Hunters ) I have been meaning to review this for a while, but I kept getting lazy. Like Golden , this song has g...

What The Hell Did I Even Watch!?!🤣

I think ever since Lady Gaga's performance in A Star Is Born , musicians have been trying to jump in on the band wagon. The Weekend is one of those musicians who's trying, and failing miserably. First he tried with The Idol , and we all saw how that crashed and burned. And now he decided to turn his newest album Hurry Up Tomorrow into a movie, where he plays a fictionalized version of himself. Oh yeah, Jenna Ortega and  Barry Keoghan are in this too.  The Weekend is obviously on this vendetta to prove to people that he can act, and it's getting kind of pathetic. The movie is just.....not good.  There's barely even a plot, it's just an elongated music video that involves The Weekend crying too much. Now, I will give him some credit for actually trying this time (unlike in The Idol ). But unfortunately, instead of coming off as a troubled musician, this felt like I was watching one of the 3-5 year-olds my mom deals with at her job. I'm aware that this movie was in...
