Album Review: Therapy Session

Image
Album Cover  NF is a kind of new Christian Rapper who has three albums out including his first Album NF and Mansion.  He is incredibly blunt in his music and his sound is incredibly different then all the other Christian Rappers as well. For Fans Of... Lecrae KB Andy Mineo Eminem Review This album is really unique in a couple of ways.  It sounds it way different than any other Christian record I have heard.  I also love the fact that he is legit and he is not here to mess around (in How could you leave us he is like shouting into the mic and CRYING) .  I have picked this up and this is my first time listening to his music.  He also has figured out his sound which is another big thing that I focus on.  The Passion is also there which is another great thing to have when doing music.  Overall I give NF a Complete 7 out of 5 stars on this album (2 points extra Credit)! Keep doing what your doing (if NF is reading this article)! My Fa...

Park Review - Six Flags Great America

Image
For the first Time in a couple of years, I got a season pass to the Six Flags Park within seven minutes of my house, so if you do read this blog and would like to meet me, that is a place I would recommend going to.  _________________________________________________________________________________ Easy to get to (0-3)   Six Flags Great America is way easier to get to than Cedar Point, plus it runs alongside I 94, and the exit is the first exit for Gurnee and follow the signs. I give Six Flags Great America a 4 because it is clearly marked as well (Extra Credit) Parking (0-5)   Parking at Six Flags Great America/Hurricane Harbor is really expensive.  25 Bucks to be exact, but if you have a gold Season pass (or are with someone with that type of pass) it is free.  Still though, I give this area a 3 because it is way to expensive. Nightlife (0-5)  The Nightlife at Six Flags is OK.  There is nothing really spectacular at this park.  There us...

Movie Review: Finding Dory

Brief Summary  Disney and Pixar resurrect Finding Nemo with another movie in the series, Finding Dory.  Dory, The forgetful blue tang begins to remember her family and where she came from and goes on an adventure with Nemo, Marlin, and one of my favorite character from the previous movies: Crush.  They meet a couple of new characters to add to their posse along the way. Rating The movie is rated PG for a couple of thematic elements including raising a child with a disability, Separating a child with a disability from their parents to live on their own, and a little bit of bullying. Family Friendliness   (Letter Grade) I give Finding Dory a solid B for family friendliness because of a couple reasons.  The first is Dory starts to give a group of Kids what is known as (in America at least) "The Talk,"  The second is the fact that there are a couple of topics brought up in the film that are questionable for kids.  But other than those two, there is ...

Album Review - Love Riot

Image
Unlike Matt Price, The Newsboys have been around for ages.  Michael Tait took over recently and has done three or four albums with the Newsboys, and the most recent of these was Love Riot.  However, before Michael Tait, Peter Furler was the lead singer for the longest time, but then broke off.  The band still has some of the originals including Duncan Phillips (Drummer), and Jeff Frankenstein (keys) to name a couple.  They also have put out a couple of movies in the past several years including God's Not Dead, Do You Believe?, and God's Not Dead 2. Album Cover For Fans Of... Audio Adrenaline  Tobymac  DC Talk Building 429 Review The Modern Newsboys have quite a record of hits ranging from Gods Not Dead (Like a Lion), We Believe, and The hit that DC Talk sang all those years back, Jesus Freak.   This album also has a major hit on it and that one is Guilty.  When Micheal Tait first came on the scene he completely rocked the way that t...

Album Review- Dream EP

Image
Matt Price is a kind of new artist in the CCM Genre of Christian Music.  His stuff is a combination of a Pop and Gospel.  He has three CDs out, and the most recent of these is his EP Dream, Which is the album that is getting reviewed in this article. Album Cover For Fans Of... Citizen Way Ryan Stevenson David Dunn All things New Review Since this is Matt Prices' EP there maybe some things for him to work on, But over all, I think that this is one of my Favorite EPs I have heard in a While.  So lets get this review started.  The things that are worth noting include the fact that he seemed to figure out his sound which is one of the harder things to do, and also There is a good variety of different takes on his sound in this album. The first thing that seemed worth noting is the fact that he seems to have found his sound a really long time ago.  I have listened to his music on and off since he followed me on twitter and I like the sound of the al...

Ballpark Review - Globe Life Park

Image
View of the outfield from our seats Overview Field Surface - Grass Type of stadium - Open Height - 114 ft Occupancy - 48,114  Easy To get to (0 - 3)  For this area I give Globe Life Park a 3 Because it is right smack in the middle of Downtown Arlington, it is practically right off the Highway too. Parking (1-5) Parking at Globe Life Park, even though it is kind of expensive ($17 to be exact) is super organized.  They have flaggers everywhere telling you where to park if you ever visit the stadium.  Getting out of the lots is also pretty easy, so overall I give the parking here a 5. Food Choices (Scale of 1 - 5) The Food Choices at Globe Life Park are spectacular.  There are a ton of barbeque Joints all over the stadium (Given it is Texas, that should happen.  They also have a variety from normal american food to Italian, to a place that fries everything.  They also have a five foot long hotdog.  I give this area a 5. Family Fri...

Preview: Virtual Reality

To show that I have been working on stuff here is my second preview of a special report I have been working on (to be released in Mid June).   This is a sneak preview of Virtual Reality! Note to the Reader   This article might be a bit of a left turn from my usual articles, but I feel like this article has some points that some people need to here along with others.  This article is more focused towards a christian audience (there might be a little bit of theology in this article), but if people are interested in this topic, Please feel free to read.  This article is going to address the topic of community (Mainly christian community, social media, and other things) in a technological world.  Before I get started, I want to address the haters that are probably going to be saying that I am being a hypocrite because I blog, but I am not because I love the blogging world.  It is an great way to get your opinions out there and reach the world in general. ...
