Read "GRADUATION" album review by Ockley (R&B From A Wider Perspective)

In this new era it feels as if there’s no solid boundaries anymore. In many aspects, that can be a good thing, at the same time it can leave the landscape feeling rather confusing. In music for instance, our entire generation has come up hearing certain genres and recognizing them right away whereas now, the artists are willing to experiment with their sound.

"Returning To A Forgotten Place" SWORDSOOL Album Review by Jhantu Randall

I personally think that the Soundcloud era of hip hop is both a good and a bad thing. On the plus side it allows creative people who never would've had a shot an opportunity to get themselves out to the public. For those who are truly serious about it, it gives the ability to turn a passionate hobby into a profitable career. On the flip side, it’s this same platform that almost enforces a sense of monotony. Lowering the barrier of entry and allowing sub-par rappers to flood the space, making it harder to discover actual MC’s. Those who still give thought to their content while challenging themselves to improve lyrically as they use words to paint pictures and transcribe their stories.

I was asked to review an album, sWordsCool by a collaborative who perform under the same name. Appropriately referred to as a “Triple crown triumvirate,” sWordsCool is made up of Suntonio Bandanaz, Julie-C, and Ready Ron Beats. From the opening track, I heard an introduction that was very reminiscen…
