Unpublished articles from 2012

"channel ORANGE" by Frank Ocean

channel ORANGE

About 2 weeks after Frank posted an open letter on his Tumblir talking about his first love being a man he releases his debut album. Frank has received a lot of support from several people in the entertainment industry and his fans. His early release to iTunes and Amazon total roughly 130,000 by his official album release on June 17th. The general public seems to not care about his sexuality. Now, on to the album, this album comes across as really mellow and calming to me. This is a must buy.

1. "Start" - This is simply the album intro
2. "Thinkin Bout You" - I have personally loved this song ever since I first heard it a few months ago. In this song, Frank sings about his feelings for that special someone that is always om his mind.
3. "Fertilizer" - This is really just a interlude with a 70's pop feel to it.
4. "Sierra Leone" - This song is fairly short, but he goes on to sing about how he is pending too much time alone with her. He then goes on to sing about how he grew up in Sierra Leone and how he feels about his lady.
5. "Sweet Life" - In this song, Frank sings about his special someone and how they live the sweet life in an affluent African American neighborhood and were born into money.
6. "Not Just Money" - Another interlude that basically talks about money and the importance of it.
7. "Super Rich Kids" (Feat. Eric Sweatshirt) - This song talks about wealthy kids and the troubles that they have. Earl then comes in and raps about the bratty rich kids.
8. "Pilot Jones" - In this song, Frank sings about his girl that gets smokes often to get high. She is also unemployed, and he no longer has much in common with her anymore. She keeps him high and is his "Pilot Jones".
9. "Crack Rock" - The song talks about someone that is basically a crackhead and their past, in addition to their former love interest. 
10. "Pyramids" - This a practically 10 minute song which has an Egyptian plot line to it. Starting off in ancient times then jumping forward to present day and then starts to talk about a female stripper who works a the Pyramid (strip club). 
11. "Lost" - This song is about a girl who is just lost in life. It goes on to say that she is lost in the heat and thrill of it all
12. "White" (Feat. John Mayer) - This is another interlude with a instrumental jazz feel to it
13. "Monks" - This song talks about Frank's girl who is a young beautiful girl planning to run away with her boyfriend from her father
14. "Bad Religion" - This song starts off with Frank in a taxi as he tells the driver that they are his shrink currently during rush hour while the driver tells him that he needs prayer. He goes on to explain that this guy cannot love him as he loves them.
15. "Pink Matter" (Feat. Andre 3000) - This song is about strong feelings for a woman and how she makes him feel overall.
16. "Forrest Gump" - This song bluntly describes Frank's feelings for a dude who is very kindhearted and that is always on his mind
17. "End / Golden Girl" (Feat. Tyler, The Creator) - The track starts off with the ending interlude then after a decent pause the final track starts. In "Golden Girl" Frank sings about how his girl makes him feel. Then Tyler jumps in and drops a few rhymes about his appreciation for his girl.

"In & Out" by Marcus Canty Ft. Wale



This track has a cool type of Island / Club beat to it which is a good summer single from his upcoming debut album. This is one of those tracks that just makes you start grooving to the music. This track is actually making me look forward to the album. Now on to the story line of the song itself. Marcus seems somewhat picky with the kind of girl he wants which more less  leads to him being in and out of love. Wale then chimes in and raps about how he is starting to think that maybe his girl is just a maybe because he kind of likes her but other times does not feel her.

"Enough Said" by Aaliyah Ft. Drake

Aaliyah - Enough Said (featuring Drake)

Another unreleased and partially unfinished track from the late R&B singer has surfaced. I personally do not believe that this song was intended to feature a rapper, but that is what we ended up with. Personally, if the decision was up to me, then I would rather prefer Jay-Z than the profanity spewing Drake. After listening to the song I believe that it is good, until Drake appears on the track. I just feel like Drake butchered the song. Overall, I honestly feel like the version without Drake is better.

You can listen to both versions, one with Drake and one without below

(New Music) Teedra Moses Ft. Wale - 'Another Luvr (Remix)'

Teedra Moses

I really like this track and it's somewhat tribal beat. This is really a good spring, summer, and fall-time track. It is one of songs that just makes you want to cut loose in the club and do some freaky dancing.

(Video) Ahmir Ft. Daniel de Bourg - 'Lotus Flower Bomb'

I actually like this remake by Ahmir Featuring Daniel de Bourg performing 'Lotus Flower Bomb' by Wale Featuring Miguel and do not really have much more to say other than listen to the remake.

(New Music) Wale & Meek Mill - 'The Motto (Remix)'

They are both killin it lyrically on this track. I really like this remix.

Listen to 'The Motto (Remix)' below:

(New Music) Tyga Ft. Wale, Fabolous, Young Jeezy, Meek Mill & T.I. - 'Rack City (Remix)'

Tyga got all of the rappers on this remix. It is not bad but I honestly feel that he could have had a remix with 2 to 3 other rappers not 5 others. The remix is cool tho but I just do not believe that a mega remix was necessary.

(New Music) Bei Maejor Ft. Wale, Trey Songz, , T-Pain and Nelly - 'Trouble (Remix)'

Nelly and Bei Maejor

Back with the 'Trouble (Remix' again by Bei Maejor but this time there is one extra person in addition to Wale, Trey Songz and T-Pain. Nelly hops up on the remix also and delivers very well. I like the additional verse.

(New Music) Teyana Taylor Ft. Wale - 'Make Your Move'


This track is not bad at all. It kinda crosses me as a song that would a good song to listen to while driving. It has a real chill type of flow to it and I could really see myself listening to this while driving on a nice spring day.
