PartyNextDoor and Drake: The Questionable Collaboration
PartyNextDoor and Drake: The Questionable Collaboration by Dan-O I wish I could be a super fan like the people who wave the flag for Drake or Beyonce or Nicki.

G.O.A.T. Components-Lil Wayne by Dan-O Albums (Classics and numbers)-I revisited Wayne’s place all time after his 2020 release Funeral. It is superb but let’s look at how good it is in context.

Song of The Year-The Season/Carry Me by Anderson Paak
Song of The Year-The Season/Carry Me by Anderson Paak by Dan-O When Drake first exploded onto the scene some interesting comparisons were made between him and Lebron James. The same way purist’s frothed venom as Lebron chomped on his fingernails on the sidelines; Drake felt like the cloying hip hop version. So much talent but […]

Song of The Year-Other Guys by ILoveMakonnen
Song of The Year-Other Guys by ILoveMakonnen by Dan-O I’m probably addicted to ILoveMakonnen but I’m not alone. His new mixtape Drink More Water 5 starts with a freestyle under the same name that is a train wreck. It’s more clear than ever from his new output that Makonnen is that weird character in the […]
