New music reviews of Big $ean, John Mayer, and Ka$Kade

Big $ean, aka Sean Anderson, released his 4th solo album on February 3. The new album is titled 'I decided'; and it has a great collaboration with Eminem. The song with Eminem is 'no favors'; and Marshall Mathers disrespects Ann Coulter plus President Donald Trump. Big $ean does his classic rapping on the track, but Eminem steals the show. Two of the other early tracks off the album are 'moves' and 'Bounce back.' 'Moves' is a wacky track, which is less than 150 seconds. Thank God!! 'Bounce Back' is a good one for sure. Finally, the 4th track that G. Ripley has heard is 'halfway off the balcony.' This one is another stellar Big Sean track, and he rhymes sooo tight on this beat. Enjoy the picture above of Big Sean, and Jhene Aiko. Friends, or a couple? In contrast, John Mayer has released a new EP. The EP has four tracks, and it is titled 'The Search For Everything.' Three of the tracks are really good, especially 'love on the weekend' and 'Moving On and Getting Over.' Another good song is 'changing.' These four songs are John's newest material in over 3 years, since his stellar 'Paradise Valley' album in late 2013. It's good to see his pop music on mainstream radio, and youtube again. Lastly, Kaskade performed at the 2017 Waste Management Open in Scottsdale, AZ. He has not released a new album since his mixed 'Automatic' album in 2015. This album had some ok tracks like 'Disarm U'; but the EDM tracks were not my favorite off this album. Recently, Haley and Kaskade collaborated on 'Let It Out'; which is a soft EDM track. Haley's voice is beautiful, and Kaskade mixes some smooth beats. Seeing Kaskade perform in Las Vegas is on my bucket list.
