Most Influential Albums of the Decade


First, do note that my list isn't for everyone lol. The albums I put in this list may or may not have landed at the top of the charts throughout the past ten years, but, to me, these albums are the top of the top. Coming in at number one is probably my favorite album of all time. I cant even count how many times I bought, lost, and repurchased "In Search Of..." by N.E.R.D. In all honesty, this album got me through high school [no easy task]. Although this album pretty much went unnoticed, people really started to catch on after lead singer Pharrell Williams blew up and became one of the most recognized voices in hip hop and a fashion trend-setter. "In Search Of..." is not for the kids who move from one pop fad to the next. With its reoccurring high school themes and sentiments, its clear this album was made strictly for the misfits; for the kids who felt like gaulky outsiders to the "All American" image / lifestyle that is often idolized by not only high school kids, but adults of all ages. Not only are the lyrics incredible, the experimental sound that N.E.R.D ushered in has been duplicated by many. After initially releasing the album with synthesized beats and melodies, it was re-released with real instruments as the backing tracks elevating its sound and instantaneously transforming it into a classic. "In Search of..." is definitely an album that will be in my music library as long as I live!
The remaining albums are in no particular order and should be cherished for various reasons. Check them out below.

Kanye West for A Bathing Ape Spring 2010 Lookbook


Once again Bape have worked with rapper/producer Kanye West, this time for their latest lookbook, which advertises their Spring 2010 collection. With photography from Keiichi Nitta, the collection is well captured is certainly looks very promising. With a mixture of Bape and URSUS Bape releases on the cards, the entire range is refined, with a mixture of Japanese and American aesthetics, making the choice to work with Mr. West appropriate. The collection includes new styles of belts and as wells shirts, work trousers, tees, varsity jackets and more. Surely to be a strong divider amongst fans, the most immediately striking piece is the Baby Milo hoody, which is complete in a vibrant multi-colourway featuring a selection of characters seen throughout Milo’s history.

I'm glad Jay puts more focus into his videos these days. Before his attempted retirement, he would only put out two singles for an album. Check the video below.

Looks like Omarion's upcoming project is shaping up to be a pretty solid release. Check the music below.

Official Video: Omarion (Feat. Jay Rock) - Hoodie


This video is so lame, but incredibly dope at the same time! Who writes a song about hoodies? Anyway, the choreography is dope, the cinematography is dope, the story line.... I don't really get, but I like it. Its way better than his previous vid. Check it below.


New Music: Jamie Foxx - Marching On ft. Tank


This is a nice lil sentimental song. Gotta love tank on the background vocals.


New Music: Usher - Little Freak ft. Nicki Minaj


Finally Usher makes the music we want from him! This is a hit. Hopefully it'll be on the upcoming album. Real music heads will be able to notice the Stevie Wonder sample! Check the music below.

New Music: Lil Wayne - Knockout ft. Nicki Minaj


Looks like the leaks off Wayne's "Rebirth" have finally hit the net. If hes smart and as creative as hes credited, he'll have a whole new album ready to go in February when "Rebirth" is supposed to be released.


Official Video: Rihanna - Hard ft. Young Jeezy


This is, hands down, the best video Rihanna has ever released! Kudos to whoever thought to paint an armored tank pink and put Rihanna on it with a Micky Mouse helmet.
