Alright guys! First music review! Nicki Minaj (My favorite artist) is about to release her new single (and accompanying video) "High School". I've been a fan of this song since it came out, so everyone, put aside any bias for Nicki you may have, and listen to this review.
The song starts out fierce, as soon as the beat drops, she's on it. Nicki starts busting raps with a non stop flow, and only gets faster from there on. She picks up the pace until the end of her verse, leading us into the chorus, sung by Minaj herself. I'm a fan of her singing, but I've always liked her rapping much more. The chorus works for this song, but it almost seems like it was an afterthought, as it is very weak, and doesn't offer much. However, the song picks back up when we get to the second verse, rapped by Lil Wayne. I've never been a big fan of Wayne, but he brings the song back up. His verse keeps the song going at a nice pace, and it would have been nice if the song ended here. However, they keep dragging this song out by repeating the chorus, and then ending the song off with a slow, yet slightly less boring outro. So basically, the only thing that saves this song are the rap verses, leading the song to this score. 6.5/10
Alright guys, go easy on me! This is my 1st song review, and I know it isn't great. But I will get better! Make sure to leave some constructive criticism of my review and what you think of this song in the comments. I'll be sure to reply! See you guys soon!
