Sremmlife 2 is an 11 song hip-hop album by the dynamic duo themselves, Rae Sremmund. It is the sequel to the horrible Sremmlife . It was released on August 20, 2016. Rae Sremmund are a very, um, interesting duo. Swae Lee is the real showpiece of this album, because even though his voice can be kind of annoying, it's really unique and adds character to Sremmlife. Slim Jimmy, on the other hand, is very average, with a slightly boring voice and delivery. "Start A Party", the first song, is an amazing start. From the very first second, this amazing hip-hop rave mood is set, with perfect production by Pluss and P-Nazty. This song is perfect at what it sets out to do: start a party, and the intro is legendary. "Real Chill" doesn't captivate on the precedent set by "Start A Party". It sounds like a discount 2 Chainz song, with lazy production by Mike Will Made It. Kodack Black's feature really doesn't add much to the song, and this just ends...

Sunday is a 4 song extended play by singer/producer Dawin, released on July 28th. I was first introduced to Dawin with his semi-hit "Dessert", a fun, sweet song with a highly unexpected and fun drop. It got popular a long time after it was released (and ruined with Silento), which drove Dawin to release slightly underwhelming songs "Just Girly Things" and "Life of the Party". Regardless, I was looking forward to listening to Sunday, and interested in seeing where Dawin's musical style is heading. The first song, "Bikini Body", featuring R. City, is a happy body-positivity song that I can totally imagine being played at a beach party. Throughout the EP, Dawin showcases his vocal talents more than he has previously. The drop to this song, like "Dessert" is slightly unexpected and very different form the rest of the music in the song, but that's what makes it so good. This song is a great start to the album, and I even like R. ...
