Twoiney Lo - I Have A Dream





What's up, my precious, little children of the corn. It's me: The real Carlton Banks, Bill Nye's 2nd Cousin, the original Black Nerd and I want to introduce you to the New Year! Happy New Year from all of us (just me) here at NLR2.
On this fine New Year, I bring you some TwoineyLo. I know you're thinking "Wave, I thought you hated that nigga. That last post was brutal!" That's not true. I don't hate people! ...I just hated that song. Twoiney Lo sent me this a few days ago and I slept ago, but I decided to turn over a new leaf and look at everything in my inbox. I took a listen and I somewhat like this. Twoiney starts off with his own speech about his dream and life. Then, the beat fades in. The beat is nice. Ufmo made some old East Coast type shit. I like it. Sounds like a Joey BadA$$ beat. The lyrics didn't appeal to me at first, but at least they were on beat. Twoiney is clearly important. He spit a few good lines like "How you living holy if all you do is sin?" (possible Holy Life diss) "I find it crazy how people think they are the shit.. cuz the own a lot of material things." I like that Lil Wayne reference he stuck in there. The song ends with an MLK speech which reminds me of the end of Bobby Woody's "I Hate The Word," except it's actually Martin Luther King. lol. The song is nice and Twoiney Lo is showing improvement.

Twoiney Lo - Ransom Freestyle



Before I say anything, the quality is horrible. Whoever mixes Twoiney's tracks, get your shit together. Like damn son, you had one job! lol.
If you don't already know Twoiney Lo, he's a rapper from Baltimore. He's head of Baltimore Group, NWM (Nothing Without Motivation) and attends Polytechnic Institute. (Go Parrots?)
This Ransom verse was the first of Twoiney's Twoiney Lo Thursdays. I'm assuming that since I'm a week late on this, a new one will be dropping again tonight. Now that I say it aloud, I feel like Twoiney Lo Tuesdays would've been better because it flows a bit more, but nonetheless, I like the consistency! As a supporter of Baltimore music, I believe I've been listening to Twoiney for about a year too. I'm not a big fan, but I can say that this is probably the best verse I've heard from him. (2nd best migiht be Bonfire with Ronny.) Even though this is the hardest I've heard from him, it still not articulate enough in my opinion. Twoiney needs to learn to distinguish himself, but not sound like a somewhat more competent version of Waka. One of his lines was "I heard they getting money, but they only slanging knicks." While a tad bit typical, I thought that was funny, but then one of his later lines was "How can you snow shovel without a shovel" and I was disappointed  While I could go on about Twoiney, I don't want to give you a full detailed review of his music based on one songs and the singles I've heard from him. I'll wait until his Hungry for Greatness mixtape to drop.

Twoiney Lo - Youngin Doin Me


Okay. If you don't know, Twoiney Lo is a Baltimore rapper who is also the founder of one of Baltimore's most popular groups, NWM. It stands for "Nothing Without Motivation," and it's formerly known as "Niggas Wit Money" (I think they changed it after Arioan's party). The beat is produced by Layno. It seems like Layno must be a bit new to producing. The beat isn't all that mixed, but it has potential. (Sorry, I'm a stickler for beats.)
The song is aiight. Twoine's flow can get off at times, but he leaves his own impression. He's doing him. Stop hating. lol. I don't like most of the lines, not gonna lie. My tips: work on that rhyme scheme, and put a little more meaning in the lyrics. Keep doing you, my nigga. 2/5
