Fax.  📠 "This shit didn't happen overnight."      "Results Take Time" by Bay rapper, Symba is swag and consciousness. It's akin to one of the best times in Hip Hop, when beats were hard-hitting and lyrics scintillating, the early 90s. And in this millennium, where unfortunate deaths and the Soundcloud rapper's experimentations take out some prime lyricists — Cough.Ka.Takeoff.cough — "Results Take Time" is an album the Hip Hop community needed.      In other

    There is hope when every track starts that it will be blazin'! However, within ten seconds, "West Coast" by OneRepublic proves it is not. The vocals are nasally and whiny, as if the vocalist is crying about the west instead of reveling. There are no modulations in his voice, save for the end with a pathetic falsetto. Throughout, the vocals are the same boxy, congested flow: da-da-da-da. Then, the beat drops, and at this moment, the poppy 4x4 instrumental begins to stilt the vocalist even more; thus, flattening him and the track like a pancake. The hooks are the same as the opening lyrics but delivered louder and with a tad more excitement. If it weren't for the great production team giving life to this track, then this track would be blah! As it stands, it's a bomb.
