Lil Baby & Lil Durk’s “The Voices Of The Heros” review
I’m late to the party because I just listened to this masterpiece. Every track kept me tuned in on every verse. I was enamored by with the combo of Lil Baby and Lil Durk. Two of the hottest artists working today. As I write this review, it is hard to stay focused because I listen to the songs as I write. This is a great gem, and you will agree when you hear Track 9- “How It Feel”.
Me residing in the Chicagoland area, I am very proud of Durk’s success. He’s been working hard for years and it has paid off. I have listened to his mixtapes and albums for years. Watching him shining as a top level mainstream artist is very inspirational. Proof that you will succeed with hard work and consistency, and you will believe with Track 6- “Man Of My Word”.
Lil Baby stepped on the scene so strong, it’s like he can do no wrong. He drops hit after hit, and this collaboration album was pure magic. Both of their rap style compliments each other so perfect. All the beats was beyond legit. You will agree when you hear Track 12- “That’s Facts’. Thank you for visiting Great Frank’s Place.

NLE Choppa’s “Me vs. Me” review
NLE Choppa is a super special talent that showcases his abilities on every track on this release. I was zoned into every track. I randomly came across this, and I could not help but be enamored with his smooth rhythmic flow and gutta lyrical message. Such a pleasant surprise to hear a young artist that puts the work in to be great. You’ll believe that nothing is a mistake when you hear Track 4- “Too Hot” ft. Moneybagg Yo.
This is not a family friendly album. Choppa really gets skully and raw with every rap. It’s been a crazy long time since I heard a gangsta rhyme this raw. Only true rap fans will appreciate this one. For a mainstream artist like him to get this real is rare. He keeps it 100 on Track 9- “Chicago to Memphis” ft. G. Herbo.
This is my first time hearing an entire piece from NLE Choppa. This was amazing. Moving forward, I will be on the lookout for all his new works. Everything was beautifully produced. He definitely keeps it true on Track 10- “Ima Dogg”. Thank you for visiting Great Frank’s Place.

Gucci Mane’s “ So Icy Christmas” review
Our boi Wizzop brings us back to the streets with this on. It’s a holiday special that surprises everyone. Probably had you thinking it was one of his previous release. NOPE! This was a very appreciated presentation. You will enjoy unwrapping Track 3- ‘Da Beginning”.
I’m truly at a lost for words. I cant remember the last time Gucci fed the streets in this manner. I was reminded of why everyone fell in love with his vibes. This was filled with top quality features and you’ll be a believer with Track 4- “Enchanting” with Nina Ross.
Radric Davis has always blessed us with masterpieces. This one is another truthful evident of the creation. I was not disappointed. After hearing Track 13- ‘All I Want For Christmas” it provides all evidence. Thank you for visiting Great Frank’s Place.

Lil Wayne, Rich The Kid’s “Trust Fund Babies” review
WHEEZY F. BABY DID IT AGAIN! This time he teamed up with Rich The Kid and gave us a premiere release. This was a surprise for everybody. Once I saw the notification, I could not wait to hear everything. This was a busing mixtape that makes you believe. You will agree when you hear Track 9- “Buzzin’” ft. YG.
Rich The Kid has been working hard and proving everyone that he is legit. He earned all respect from Lil Wayne and proven his stardom. His record label Rich Forever has generated plenty of profitable artists. The sky's the limit and you will believes it when you hear Track 6- “Big Boss”.
This was aa amazing listen. Tunechi always delivers, and Rich matches his standards. Been a while since I listen to greatness. Can’t wait to hear more. This is a golden age of hip hop and it’s bound to get better. Thank you for visiting Great Frank’s Place.

Kanye West’s Donda review
Kanye is back with his new next level gigaplexed anticipated release. Everyone was on edge to hear this one. This is a true Gospel album. Kanye teaches us you must learn God, before you earn God. If you listened to his last album “Jesus Is King” then you understand the direction he steers music to. He testified to our soul on “Jesus Lord”.
Being truthfully honest, I was not that impressed at the first listen. After the second gander, I began to appreciate everything. Anyone who listens to Gospel music knows it is about the message. If you only focus on the music you will be lost. We all remember Kanye for his groundbreaking beats, but his true talent is to make you think. You comprehend everything after you hear “Pure Soles”.
Is this one of Yeezy’s award winning albums, no. Nevertheless the less there is something we all should take away. Strive to be a better person and treat everyone with the respect they deserve. Lend a helping hand now and then, and watch your blessings flow. It’s real talk and you’re gonna agree listening to “Believe What I Say”. Thank you for visiting Great Frank’s Place.

Migos’ “Culture III” review
Migos is back with a fresh new release titled “Culture III”. Everybody was waiting patiently for this release. They always deliver and never fail to please. This brought me back to when I first heard everything. I had a great time listening to all the tracks, and you will love listening to Track 13- “Anti Social” ft. Juice WRLD.
This was a pleasant surprise. I was not expecting this, and couldn’t help myself once I saw the notification. This album reminds my of their early mixtapes. They have been putting work in for along time, and now they are solidified top level mainstream artist. Hard work pays off. You will understand when you hear Track 3- “Straightenin”.
The sky is not the limit for Migos, they are inter dimensional. Role models for all aspiring artists to stay motivated. They remind us how important it is to stay healthy with Track 8- “Vaccine”. Thank you for visiting Great Frank’s Place.
