Jason: Okay, Nas. I don’t know any songs by him, I don’t think. This album didn’t ring any bells. Brad: I feel like you may have heard a couple of these songs before. Like “Life’s A Bitch” or “The World Is Yours”. Jason: Maaaaaaaybe? I recognized the Michael Jackson sample in “It Ain’t Hard to…
Jason: First of all, my spellcheck hated me when I was typing the track listing. Every third word had a red squiggly line under it. Brad: Not surprising. Lots of deliberate misspellings in these titles. Jason: Also, Spotify doesn’t have this album so I had to find it on YouTube and I hope it was…
Jason: Hey, this is our 50th album review. We are halfway through the list. Brad: I’m proud we got this far! Did you enjoy this one? Jason: I usually think I don’t like Elton John but then I listen to his older stuff and i do like it. I think I just got irritated with…
Jason: Are we jamming? Brad: Yes, we are. Jason: You would never know it’s 80°F outside right now because it’s about 60°F in my office. Brad: It is so nice outside. Also, chilly in my office. Jason: Fortunately, this album puts me in a tropical mood so I can pretend that I don’t need to…
Jason: I wasn’t sure what to expect from The Who. No, I take that back. I was expecting a lot of loud screeching based on my limit familiarity with all of the opening credit sequences for the CSI shows. Brad: I’ve never been a fan of The Who and I have to admit this is…
Jason: Up until this point I only knew one Kate Bush song (“Running Up That Hill”) – which you still hear on alternative radio stations or at Starbucks. So I wasn’t sure what to expect from Hounds of Love. Wow! I was pleasantly surprised by this album! Brad: I’m glad to hear that. I was…
Jason: Do you remember when they first hit big? It seemed like “Welcome to the Jungle” was on MTV a lot. Brad: I totally remember. I didn’t have MTV at the time but I remember being at friends houses watching MTV Top 20 Video Countdown. I remember the video for “Sweet Child O’ Mine” being…
Jason: I give this album a D-. Eminem is a garbage person. He is homophobic, transphobic, and misogynistic. Every song on this album is about how he wants to rape and kill women or LGBTQ people. He compares gay marriage to bestiality and says he has a cure for homosexuality (murder). He uses the word…
Jason: She was troubled. Brad: Yes, much like many artists but she was so naturally talented. Jason: When I was listening to this I thought “if she were still around and making music would her sound have evolved? Would she be as iconic?” Part of her legacy is that she died so young. Brad: I…
