REBEL WOMAN by CHIWONISO
Rating: 3/5
Reviewer: Jared Orlin
She’s well known in Zimbabwe and now Chiwoniso has launched her first international album in 10 years. She embraces her African heritage with liberal use of the mbira and deeply personal songs about motherhood, violence against women and Zimbabwe’s economic meltdown. Only two of the 12 tracks are in English but don’t let that stop you from experiencing a true African talent.
LAX by THE GAME
Rating: 3/5
Reviewer: Kim van Reizig
The 19-track album includes the hit Game’s Pain with Keyshia Cole. Other collaborators include big names such as Lil Wayne, Ludacris, Ne-Yo, Common and Nas. Hip-hop lovers will enjoy the smooth beats and easy flow but the lyrics are cringeworthy - lots of shooting, hating and death. LAX comes with a much-needed parental advisory for explicit content.
