Reviews of hip-hop albums or mixtapes.

JAY FIZZLE – Donafizzo

Let's continue our review of the Paper Route Empire roster, we started earlier in the year. Let's carry on with Donafizzo, Jay Fizzle's latest album. That one is not a rookie. This cousin of Dolph released records for […]

KENDRICK LAMAR - Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers

DAMN. was only an interlude. After he delivered that (relatively) starker album, Kendrick Lamar went back to his old bad habits. His last release, indeed, looks like a big fat wedding cake. One thousand one hundred and […]

BIGWALKDOG - Trick City

Tutwiler is a small town. It's a village, almost, based upon American standards, with even less than 4,000 inhabitants. This is a family. As a matter of fact, the mayor is Da’Jour Walker's own aunt. Therefore, when the […]

VINCE STAPLES - Ramona Park Broke My Heart

The positive press on his latest album shows it once again: nowadays, Vince Staples is an established rapper. Each time, his records are praised by both specialized and generalist medias. And there are good reasons for […]

BIG MOOCHIE GRAPE - East Haiti Baby

The show must go on. Young Dolph stopped being bulletproof. He is dead, now. But his little empire, Paper Route, still stands tall. The dolphin's heir apparent, Key Glock, took control, and other protégés like Kenny […]

KODAK BLACK - Back For Everything

Few medias will tell you the truth. Not many will say that Back For Everything is one of the best albums released so far in 2022. Not because of their bad taste, or their lack of discernment. No. They just decided not to […]

YOUNG NUDY - DR. EV4L

With its cover art that looked like a photocopy, his disturbing music, and his psychopathic lyrics, Anyways… didn't look like what it was supposed to be: Young Nudy's first official album. His raps weren't welcoming, his […]

MACH-HOMMY - Pray For Haiti

Mach-Hommy has not always run after success. Like other underground heroes, he has shunned the medias for a while. We don't know much about his identity, and he is always masked, his face hidden behind the Haitian flag […]

CASEY - Tragédie d'une trajectoire

The year 2006 was key to Casey. The rapper originally from Rouen had been in for a decade, she had built her own place in the French rap universe, through various collaborations and contributions to mixtapes and […]
