The columns on The Musical Hype encompass a variety of articles.  Some of these articles have a shelf life, while others are more evergreen (content maintains its relevance sans a set expiration date).  Even though some columns are evergreen, they don’t necessarily fit the more expansive Evergreen category, which features bigger posts such as playlists.  Columns include the “less finessed” blog Beyond the Hype, The Chart Scoop, Critics Weigh In, Guests Posts, Op Ed (opinion editorials), and Press Releases & Shopping.

    Posthumous project ‘SKINS’ should play well to the XXXTENTACION base, but as an album, it’s ‘undercooked’ as opposed to being ‘well done.’

    Gucci Mane, ‘BiPolar’ | Track Review

    Perhaps Gucci Mane, assisted by Quavo won’t change any lives with single “BiPolar,” but he definitely entertains on this banging flex-fest.

    Vic Mensa, ‘Dark Things’ | Track Review

    Despite bringing some darkness and energy on single “Dark Things,” Chicago rapper Vic Mensa misses the mark, amplified by an overabundance of autotune.
