French Montana-Mac & Cheese 3 mixtape review
French Montana-Mac & Cheese 3 mixtape review by Dan-O French Montana’s new mixtape Mac & Cheese 3 might be the most aptly named tape of the year. It’s cheap, digestible, and enjoyable even, but not at all your best food possibility (in a financial boon). Montana makes the best case for guilty pleasure an artist…

Songs of the year-Mean by Rain
Songs of the year-Mean by Rain by Dan-O The song title is the perfect answer to the question “What changed from Magic Hour 2 to 3?” Rain is Mean on damn near every track on Magic Hour 3 and the beats race to keep up with him throughout. He produced this one himself and regardless…

I-20 The Intermission mixtape review
I-20 The Intermission mixtape review by Dan-O A survey was done in my high school (the reason no one knows) and the female students all voted humor as the most attractive trait in a romantic companion. I was young and snickering, thinking “These football players ain’t that funny.” Some of our accepted opinions are a…

Smoke Dza-KONY review
Smoke Dza-KONY review by Dan-O Seeing Smoke Dza live is one of my most unforgettable concert experiences. It was a few years ago and he was opening for Curren$y, Fiend and the Jet Life crew. At that time I had him pegged as a weirdo, a NY rapper with a strange southern delivery who never…

Songs of the Year-Invisible Girl by T-Pain
Songs of the Year-Invisible Girl by T-Pain by Dan-O I’ve accepted the terms of my relationship to T-Pain. His albums are going to be mediocre to bad; on those albums will be placed two, three or more outstanding songs. Of those one will be a titanic smash for me that I could take time off…

Freddie Gibbs #BFK mixtape review
Freddie Gibbs #BFK mixtape review by Dan-O On a handful of occasions I’ve closed my eyes and listened to a Freddie Gibbs verse as if I was listening to the next Kool G Rap. Someone who would redefine tough talk for a new generation; that’s a great vision but G Rap never had to refine…

Songs of the Year-Forrest Gump by Frank Ocean
Songs of the Year-Forrest Gump by Frank Ocean by Dan-O Do you know how much I love this song? I despise this movie with a passion that has made me unpopular. I don’t even like Odd Future. When you hear the organ, the heart felt delivery of each word, the unique perspective it’s written from,…

The WHOevers-Redtape review
The WHOevers-Redtape review by Dan-O My biggest fascination with The Whoevers-Redtape might be the theme. The cover is red with the iconic picture of Dr. J and Larry Bird in their famous 80’s choke pose. The first track (Walk These Dogs-Voodoo) uses Celtics legend and courtside homer Tommy Heinsohn along with his robot commentating partner for…

Songs of the Absurd-Rice Out by Riff Raff
Songs of the Absurd-Rice Out by Riff Raff by Dan-O Riff Raff is indefensibly ridiculous. He might be a mockery of mockeries. His delivery is slow and painful, the beat is a trashy Pitbull reject. With all of that in the con column, after listening to this I dare you to get the chorus “Girl,…
