Kendrick Lamar has a couple of hits that I’ve heard many times, but I don’t really know his other songs. Luke explained the backstory of this song to me which made the lyrics way more interesting. To begin, “Duckworth” by Kendrick Lamar is about a man named Anthony who had a difficult upbringing. Although he […]

“Under Pressure” by Logic–Has A Lot of Words
Logic was Luke’s favorite artist in middle school, so I hope I do him justice with this review. To begin, “Under Pressure” by Logic was a little too fast for my little brain, but eventually, I became used to the speed, and the song became easier to understand and interpret the second time around. Logic […]
“Prom” by SZA–Makes Me Nostalgic
Honestly, “Prom” by SZA immediately drew my interest because I loved my senior prom, and it holds a very special place in my heart. Prom is one of the last events of high school, and it signifies a feeling of being grown up and is a way to say bye to that chapter of your life. Immediately […]
“16” by Baby Keem–isn’t Unique
The style of Baby Keem’s song “16” doesn’t feel like his signature style because I’ve heard his other songs, such as “STATS” and “lost souls” which are very creative and catchy tunes. This song is not creative or catchy in the slightest. The story is about a struggling relationship between him and a girl. He […]
“90210” by Travis Scott–is as Good as the Show (a Compliment!)
I was immediately drawn to the title of this song because it is the zip code of Beverly Hills (aka where the rich and famous live in Los Angeles). I love Beverly Hills, 90210 and the reboot of course, so I was very excited to listen to what “90210” by Travis Scott was about. This […]
“All I Want is You” by Mac Miller–is a Pleasant Listen
Mac Miller has been performing since he was a young teen, and he worked in the industry for over a decade before his early passing in 2018. I think people know at least one of his songs, especially now with “The Spins” being a tune played by so many high school graduates because of the […]
“Sober” by Childish Gambino–Has so Much Potential
“Sober” by Childish Gambino is about a guy who is begging a woman to stay or come back to their relationship. The heartbreak and trauma of the end of the relationship has led him to turn to drugs and become addicted. He claims that “now that it’s over, I’ll never be sober.” Although the song […]
“Sweet/I Thought You Wanted to Dance” by Tyler the Creator–is a Very Long Song
To jump right in, “Sweet/I Thought You Wanted to Dance” by Tyler the Creator is one song that’s basically two songs (hence the slash). Every one of his albums has one double song, and this song happens to be a double, so it’s almost ten minutes! Although this song is very long, it’s an easy listen and […]
“Teenage Fever” by Drake-Would’ve Been Better if It Wasn’t Sung by Him
Well to begin…I don’t like his voice. He has an autotune like voice that is very whiny in most of his songs, and it includes this one. “Teenage Fever” by Drake is a song about falling in love fast, and the title is referring to how teenagers fall in love very swiftly. There are two women […]
“Bad Habit” by Steve Lacy–a Hit Song That’s Like Any Other Hit Song
To summarize, “Bad Habit” is about a guy who is self-reflecting about a girl he had feelings for and who also had feelings for him as well, but he did not know it at the time. He regrets not making a move and doesn’t like his habit of not being an assertive person. Suddenly, the […]
