I've been waiting for another fully fledged R&B album from Akon, but he keeps dropping stuff like this. Here we have a seven-track EP full of dance-pop with a bit of a reggaeton flavour at times. I play this short release through and not hate life too much, but there is nothing I'll be going back to at all. If you like his projects like 'El Negreeto' this is worth checking out. Best Tracks: Enjoy That

This is another consistent collection of songs from Massina. The issue is that they sound too similar. High slow keys, standard trap beats and the same kind of melancholy expression from Thugga make the songs all blend in a little too much. There are some catchy and clever lines and decent hooks. A decent EP. Best Tracks: Unstoppable, Temptation

A decently entertaining popcorn superhero movie, but you can add it to the pile of movies in this never-ending genre that you won't remember a few days after watching. As I've mentioned with other movies of this category, at times watching the fighting scenes with these seemingly invincible characters is like watching two rocks fights. When there is no chance of them dying it ruins the immersion. That is one of the reasons why Batman is king. Two members of the Justice Society of America, who try to imprison Black Adam, Albert "Al" Rothstein / Atom Smasher and Maxine Hunkel / Cyclone, don't contribute much to the story except to add some scenes of flirting that goes nowhere. Atom Smasher is almost unhelpful, mostly being here for some attempted comedic relief, and Cyclone seems tacked on as well. If you love superhero/action movies, you'll enjoy it, but there isn't much substance.

Unlike a lot of soundtracks that have an array of genres, aside from the R&B 'Miami', we just have 15 tracks of hip hop plus an intro and outro. Like most soundtracks though, this is still a mixed bag but there is enough good music to make it worth checking out. 'Hell Yeah' by Dead Prez is good, and bubbling under some of the best songs, but having heard the remix so much, it just pales in comparison. The poorer songs like 'Represent' and 'Slum' are tedious but the best like Luda's 'Act a Fool' and 8Ball's 'Hands in the Air' are hard as a cat's head with contagious hooks. Beats: ★★★ Rapping/Bars: ★★★ Hooks: ★★★☆ Best Tracks: Act a Fool, Pick Up the Phone, Hands in the Air, Gettin' It, We Ridin' Songs ordered (best-worst): Act a Fool Hands in the Air Gettin' It Pick Up the Phone We Ridin' Rollin' on 20's Peel Off Hell Yeah Fuck What a Nigga Say... Block Reincarnated Oye Pump It Up Miami Represent Slum

After a few spins of this album, nothing is remarkable. I've listened to it after his debut and they are both decently consistent, but there's nothing much to go back to and the higher points here aren't too high at all. As a rapper, Cheeks lacks the presence to truly grab the listeners' ear. Beats: ★★★ Rapping/Bars: ★★☆ Hooks: ★★★☆ Best Tracks: Tonight, Turn It Up, All Nite Long, LB Family
