Bink - Invitation [VIDEO]

Hey there everybody! It's me, the real Carlton Banks, Bill Nye's 2nd cousin, and Paul Hewitt's homeboy. Here today, I am showing you Bink's latest video to the intro from his mixtape 3.5, "Invitation." It's short and to the point. The mix sounds waaay better than the CDQ somehow haha. The video was done by DiamondfFireFilms. It looks like the video to that song that Joey Bada$$, Casey Veggies, and Mac Miller did last 4th of July. It's a bit typical, but I'm not complaining or anything. If you want my review of the song, check my review of Bink's 3.5 EP. I do wonder how the video got over 50k views though. With only 184 likes and 78 comments, I'll assume that he paid for some, or DMVJams is a much more popular site than I thought it was. I believe they posted this to their site when the video first dropped. Check it out and tell me what you think about it.

This video was brought to you by Waverly Spades, and now I'm off to work on Pre100 journals.

Bink - 3.5 [EP Review]

Wow, I haven't posted in almost 2 weeks. Well welcome back class. It's me, your teacher, the real Carlton Banks, the original black nerd, Bill Nye's 2nd cousin, etc. Today, I have in my inbox, Bink's latest EP, 3.5. He asked me to listened to the whole thing before I ever judge him again and that's what I'm going to do right now. If you don't know who Bink is, he's a teen rapper from Baltimore rapper (he dons himself the best). This kid has mad lines and an alter ego named "Skate God." I'm not so fond of his music, but at the same time, I'm so drawn to listen. With that said, I have somewhat high expectations. I liked his last mixtape, and I'm really hoping this is wayy better. That album art is interesting. I sorta want to know when that picture of lil Warren was taken. lol.

Invitation (Prod. by Sk808) - That beat alone is a nice way to start something. A lot of crazy flow shit here. Not much to say here.

3.5/5 (See what I did there?)

Obvious Reasons (Prod. by DreStolahh & DameBeats) - Listening to this chorus, I feel this whole song was directed at me lol. I NEVER SAID HE LOOKED GAY THO. The song is okay, until around 3:00. That's when shit really gets hot! I fucks with that!
"Trappin late night in my Jordans"

3.7/5

Baby Stroller (Prod. by JuneDocc) - The mixing on this is just bad. I'm sorry, but that annoys me, which is sad because this is a really great song. "Fuck a blog talkin shit behind a CP (computer). When I get big, they gon stalk me for a mothafuckin retweet." I feel attacked by that line... but I love it.

still gon' talk shit about this nigga tho lol,

but this song is ill. I love this shit right here. He should redo the mixing and shoot a video. That would be the illest.

I really appreciate this song. Bink is right. Make music about you. -looks at all fake rappers-

"These rappers ain't shit. They don't rap about shit, but you listen to them, so you still can't judge."
3/5

Sikken Tyd (Prod. by Dame Beats) - OH SHIT SON. THAT'S A GOOSEBUMP SAMPLE. I thought the song was going to be amazing and hard and what not, but that voice effect killed it some for me. Made it hard to pay attention. I'm Sikken Tyd of the bad quality.

2/5

A$$ (ft. DonToldYa &Noski) [Prod. by YungOneBeats] - I like how the song switches around from person to person. That's clever. The beat is oookayyyy.

2.9/5

Frank Sinatra [Prod. by Delta Records] - That beat is nice and jazzy. I reeeally like this song too. I don't know why, but I'm thinking of Swank Sinatra (aka Dyme-A-Duzin). This is another song I feel iskilled a bit by the mixing. After a while, you can't hear the beat. idk maybe he did that on purpose for some weird artistic shit.

4/5

Food For Thought [Prod. by YungOneBeats] - This is a great song right here. This is my favorite song so far. Bink gets really introspective and it's an interesting view of him. I'm definitely gon sing that hook and download that joint. One thing that makes me laugh, though, is that he says "I ain't got time for hoes." Isn't this the same Bink who always talks about fucking a lot of bitches?

"This ain't the life that I chose, but this is the life that I'm living."

4.6/5

Chocolate (ft. DDm) - That beat is craaazy! Who made it? It's a good start, but I'm not a fan of the chorus. Bink was on his Slim Shady lol. His verses were crazy. Ahhh DDm? I love that dude. His verse was just ridiculous. I had to replay that. Not much to say, but a solid track.

4.9/5

Brickz N Zanz (ft. DonToldYa & Snxxp) [Prod. by Sk808] - Did they drop this before the mixtape? I feel like I've heard this. This sounds like some throwaway Flatbush Zombies shit. The verses weren't weak, but the lines sound typical, like stuff I've heard before. I skipped to the next song midtrack because it was just boring.

"Goddamn Skate God, you're goregeous."

2.7/5

Breathless [Prod. by HunkE] - That beat sounds like some old Kid Cudi shit.. I'm already fucking with this. This sounds like one of those beats that not even the whackest rappers could fuck up. Not saying Skate God is whack, but you know what I mean? Like the "I'm On 2.0" beat... even Gudda Gudda had a good verse. Bink kills it. That is all.

4.4/5

LFDY (ft. Jujuan Allen) [Prod. by Dosha Burna Beats] - Piz is on that beat and it's hot! I fucks with it. Some A$AP Rocky type shit for the chorus that I'm vibing to. Bink killed it. I like his 2nd verse slightly better than the first. LFDY=Live Fast, Die Young. It's a superstar lifestyle. Jujuan goes wild on his shit. I love that nigga. "Know I won't live till my 70's, so my 7's blessed."

"My older siblings got a couple kids. Damn, I remember when were just kids."

4.9/5

Random Acts of Flyness [Prod. by TheOnly4PointOh] - Anybody remember the song he did with Jay Verze called "Random Acts of Flyness." Quick! Somebody call him unoriginal for recycling titles! lol. This joint is fly though. He just spits straight for 3 minutes. quarterbrickofwhite

"The best, there are a lot of you, but the greatest, there's like 5 or 2"
3.2/5

Division & Mosher (ft. Rickie Jacobs & Jae Poet) [Prod. by Dosha Burna Beats] - Each verse sounds like a Charles Hamilton freestyle. This whole joint sounds CH, down to the beat, and I'm a fan of it. Bink did some hot shit. Rickie Jacobs just went in. Just like every other time. "By any means, I'm not converting to skinny jeans. I like big asses. You know, the little things." Jae's verse was nice too. I've definitely heard more amazing stuff from him though. 

"Fuck being a rapper, you should just be a philanthropist."
5/5

Reminiscing - Somebody send that beat to French Montana. loljk. It's chill. I fucks with it. I don't smoke, but I think I'd get high to this. Not going to lie, it sounds like Bink wrote most of this while he was high. This isn't anything special, but it's a cool track.

2.6/5

Les Finale [Prod. by Delta Records] - That beat is hot. -bobs head- -Bink starts rapping.- Oh shit, this is a great song. Bink just goes real on everything here. The flow gets ridiculous. The beat gets crazier. The mixtape needs more tracks like this.

"They see me from afar thinking that I am a star, but I'm a regular motherfucker, just like all of y'all."
4.7/5

Ok, so I got a little bit of what I expected with this EP, but I also got some more. Overall, I really like the project. In my opinion, it's better than the Fuck Rap series. A few songs really stood out to me, like Les Finale, Division & Mosher, and LFDY. Others seemed like just like Bink doing his own thing, but not putting as much into it. Each song is really hit or miss. Part of that seems to be due to the beats, and then some, he just says some ridiculously crazy things. Most of the features are ridiculous (most notable ones in my opinion include, Rickie Jacobs', DDm's, and Jujuan Allen's). I like how Bink stays with some of the same DMV producers (Piz Corleone/Dosha Burna, Sk808, Yungonebeats). It feels like he's really working with Baltimore to attempt at improving the scene's chances at making it. It's all teamwork and he's doing his part. One thing that really annoyed me was that the audio quality was not good. I know that shouldn't matter because it's about the music and yadda yadda yadda, well quality is one of the main things I hear, and I'm not the only one! Some tracks sounded like (in the words of Jay Verze) "potatoes." Some verses sounded like they recorded on laptops, and then others had amazing quality. The voice didn't fit on the beat sometimes, that type of stuff. A good amount of mixing/mastering needs to be worked on. Besides that, the EP was nice. I want to hear Bink do something conceptual. Like a storyline or some type of focus. Bink tends to rap about a lot of the same stuff, but it get's weirdly random. I feel like when he's ready for a real concept album or project, that'll be amazing. Keep that shit up, Bink

Bink (ft. Jay Verze) - Toddlers

Ayo. What's up? It's me, the real Carlton Banks. I haven't been able to write much lately because of my loads of homework. (School sucks. Winter break needs to be hear now.)
This a young nigga movement! Well, I saw this track on TrapRockRadio. I've reviewed Bink and Jay Verze before, so I had to check it out. The track is hard. This is some pretty equanimous shit that was just bumping to me. I had to bob my head for that chorus. I'm sorry Bink, but Verze killed you with that 2nd verse! Bink came back hard again for his 3rd verse. It sounded off beat for a minute at the end though. Well, that's all I have to say for this track. You check it out and judge for yourself.

This song was brought to you by Waverly Spades, and now I'm off to listen to 3.5 because I do want to review that!

Fuck Rap Ch. 2 - Bink

Ok. so the cover art is all demonic and what not. I think it's cool. It looks like one of the kids from my school drew it. Bink sent me this tape and asked for my thoughts, so I decided to take a listen. I've listened to the first Fuck Rap previously and some of the tracks on Random Acts of Flyness. Honestly, I don't like Bink's personality. He's a high school drop out who thinks he's already famous because he's getting play on DMVJams. The kid's cocky and names himself the Best Teen Rapper out there. While his arrogance upsets me a bit, the dude rips (skateboarding-wise) and he is a great rapper who's always grinding (no skateboarding pun intended) and constantly posting dope stuff. His videos get thousands of views and with Diamond Fire Films, they can be a bit "typical rapper," but they're cool.

IOF - I really do like this beat. Bink goes hard. Not much to say besides the fact it's a nice way to start a mixtape.
4.5/5

1/4 Brick Of White ft. Noski (Prod. by @TyyRocks) - This beat is hot. I like the song. I can do my swag dance to this song. I heard a cancer line. ugh. stop the typical shit. This song is bouncy though. I like it. Like play this at a party or something. I heard the first Le Scait Gawd tag. lol. Noski and Bink killed it. I don't know which verse I particularly favor.
2.7/5

Purple Kush Flowers - Is this a mainstream beat or something? I feel like I may have heard it. Or at least that sample. I love it though. Bink talks a lot about that rapper lifestyle we all know and love. The song vibes though. I like it.
-deep voice -Yeuh ho
3/5

LA ft. Jae Poet & Rickie Jacobs (Prod. by Jedi) - I saw Jae Poet and Rickie Jacobs and got excited. I love both of these dudes. Two of the most talented dudes in Baltimore. I wish Jae Poet's verse was longer. lol. Bink's flow is starting to get a bit typical, but it's still hot. Jae on that hook. yasssss. Jae just murdered his 2nd verse. Oh no. This nigga Rick. He went ham as usual. His verse was a bit funny. I love that beat. The end is weird. Who's supposed to be rapping? lol.
"She suck dick like Armageddon. Got big tits like watermelons. Wet pussy, that's all she's selling."
4.5/5

Liberachi ft. Shame & Noski (Prod. by @YoungOneBeats) - This song is cool. One of those club banger type shits. I don't like it mch. Bink killed. The other two dudes are alright.
1.4/5

Rod Flanders - Lol. I loathe this beat. I don't like it whatsoever, EXCEPT for that smooth part where the latino woman is talking. This negro, Bink did go off though. I cannot tell a lie. Cual es tu numero de telefono? Hahahha that had me laughing. idk why. Bink just really sounded like that Latina woman
3/5

Rap Niggas ft. Jae Poet & Rickie Jacobs (Prod. by @YoungOneBeats) - Ok, I know I heard this before! This was one of the singles. The beat made me do that look you make when the beat drops. Yeah, you know what I'm talking bout. That "ungh" face. I like this. It's really catchy. Jae killed his verse. Rickie Jacobs snapped. The only thing I don't like is that this song sounds unmastered, or something. Now where are these bad bitches at? When are they gonna give head to me?
3.5/5

Bonfire - God DAMN! This is definitely one of my favorite Bink verses. The boy went crazy. woop woop swag swag. I already love the original. I love this. The chorus is a bit odd in my opinion. I don't think much more needs to be said about this.
"They stupider from Jupiter"
4.4/5

Say You Will (deep) - Remember when Kanye first dropped this? I hated it, but I really like the original. I like Bink's verse too. It may not be Kendrick Lamar deep, but a lot of these lines are pretty dope. The flow is dope. I love it. The "swag" at the end killed the tone, though. lol.
"I ain't shit without my rap career."
4.7/5

Flexxin - I think this was one of the singles that dropped before the tape. I don't know exactly, I feel like I've heard it before. It's got one of those typical trap beats, and he's going hard. and yeah. Skinny nigga's runnin shit. This is a cool track though. I thought of 2Chainz when I heard this song, no lie. (no pun intended)
"Still tryna get mad rich, so I copped the Porsche, but it's 3 doors."
2/5

No Idea ft. Jase (Prod. by DreStolah) - I love DreStolah. I think I first heard him on the first Fuck Rap. Jase killed his 2 verses. Lyrically, not much content or anything, but what do I know? I have no idea what these niggas are talking about. Les Cait Gawd killed it. While the lyrics aren't speaking to me much, they somewhat do the beat justice.
"Fuckin for money, but they fuckin with me"
2.3/5

Stranger ft. King Midas & Day Day - This song is mad dope. I love this. When it first came on, I'm thinking, "What? They flipped Gotye?," and then I realized that they wrote that hook. Bink's verse is aiight, a tad bit unrelated. lol. That's Midas singing, right? I love that dude. This whole song is amazing. I don't know who Day Day is, but he killed his verse.
"She lying. Got predators prying. Competitors crying. Get cheddar for trying."
4.7/5

59 (Prod. by DameBeatz) - 59 seconds. Interesting idea for a song. The beat sounds like something Southside would do. I know I saw the video for this a few months ago. This is a song is okay.
2/5

The Last Stop (Throwback) (Prod by GeneralBeatz) - This is definitely my favorite song off of the mixtape. Has Bink released this before? It sounds familiar, but I know I've heard the beat on GeneralBeatz' youtube, so that might be why. The song is dope. This is probably the deepest song off the tape, man.
"You can't be hard if you doubting your son.. You can't go big if you doubt Fat Pun"
3.6/5

Black Tie (Jae Poet ft. Bink) - Life's a bitch, but you love these hoes. Ok, I love this song. Jae Poet is really dope. Bink's only on the chorus (lol like Kanye in that song with Fonzworth Bently). I usually think Bonus tracks are the best endings to a mixtape, and I guess it's just a bonus, but this is hot.
"I play the beat, prolly made the beat"
4.6/5

Overall, the mixtape was OKAY. I like a few songs and a few beats. Here and there, Bink throws out some really good lines. Like I said, he sounds really cocky, and that somewhat annoys me. Bink has an great flow and some good lyrics, but sometimes straying from a message or not having one at all. He does say some clever stuff and there are some great features and beats here, although some of this is just strepitous. One thing I noticed is that when Fuck Rap dropped, it was everywhere. DMVJams had his video and a banner up. The artwork/tracklisting was more professionally done. This seemed a bit rushed in some efforts. (UPDATE: I just noticed DMVJams.com isn't even up! lol what happened?) Umm what else to say. Swag. 67% D+
