Drake. I saw the name and I'm sure your mind comes up with images of the Billboard Hot 100, the Toronto Raptors, and probably Toronto's CN Tower. Over the course of his 12-year long career, the Boy has mastered the art of making pop-rap hits and is arguably one of the figures most responsible for the rise of rap...
"Donde esta Donda?" and "Did it drop?" were two of the questions I heard the most over the course of the past month (both of which were often followed by laughs).

In my mind, even if the film existed, it would a dumpster fire. However, my initial reactions to some odd trailers and a...
With the nationwide events of the past year, it is quite cathartic to see a film that feels so in tune with current events. Shaka King's Judas and the Black Messiah is an incredible film with outstanding performances from LaKeith Stanfield, Daniel Kaluuya, and Jesse Plemons. In case you are unaware, Judas and the Black Messiah follows the true story of William O'Neal...
Reddit has been a place where communities come together to share their opinions/expressions about various topics. It is one of the more underground social media platforms where you can find discussions from years ago about the most random, oddly specific topic. But no one has really given the platform as much credit as it truly deserves, especially with the...
