Chox-Mak Ft. DJ YRS Jerzy - Final Destination (Prod. By DR.G)

As soon as the beat started, I knew this was going to be dope. Dr. G painted a soundscape that is heavenly and omniscient. It's like conscious, gospel rap music lol.   I don't know which one is Chox-Mak and the which is DJ YRS Jerzey, but each verse is amazing. At times, it gets humbly braggadocious with lines like "My brother told me 'you could rub elbows with Kendrick.'" I wouldn't compare these guys to Kendrick just yet, but this song is good. A bit typical wannabe conscious/not thug rapper for me, but good nonetheless. The hook is one of those hooks made just because you need a hook. I don't pay much attention to it lol. Whoever that is on the 2nd verse, that's my favorite verse.

"I married this rap shit. Gotta get her out the kitchen."

JproD - Trill Shit, I Really Mean That

Hey there, nerds! I must apologize for the leave of absence. I told myself to calm down until I finish applying to colleges. I only have one college to apply to left (UArts), so I think I'm doing good and I can start blogging again. I'm also really motivated right now because you guys are sending me great stuff and I feel like people actually like this, so I'm going to do my best to post at least once a week! I mean it, this time! Make sure you guys tweet me to keep me to it, okay? haha.


I'm trying to go through a lot of stuff from my inbox in order, so here's something from like 2 months ago (lol). JproD sent this and another track to my inbox. The first track was weak. I just wasn't feeling it from the first 7 seconds of listening. This one, I thought would be better. The beat is trill and nice.  That's about the best part of this. The song itself is corny. JproD's lyrics are basic in my honest opinion. "1 for the money. 2 for the show. 3 for her to get ready to drop it low." This nigga said some shit about flipping chicken wings in the first bar. That's disrespectful to the producer (whom he didn't even credit)! I swear almost every line in this song, I've heard a variation of it somewhere else and the ones that weren't were the corny as fuck lines. Sorry these long nights of college applications have made me a very cold person. Welp. Shout out to this guy for at least staying on beat.

Top Rookie - Down The Rookie [Mixtape Review]

Oh hey there, nerds and trekkies. It's me, Bill Nye's 2nd cousin aka your atypical blogger aka a man with not so many names, but you most likely know me as Waverly Spades, the nigga that never actually posts shit. Today, I come to you with Top Rookie's latest release, Down By The River. Top Rookie is a three-piece rap group out of Minnesota consisting of Miley Woo, Emceeven, and someone not so new to the blog: Tommy Prospect (formerly known as TGK). This is one of those things I've been saying I'd listen to and review for a while, so I'mma sit down and do it now! Since this is a group, I'm going to do something I've never done before and tell who had the best (or at least, my favorite) verse in the song.
Mind's Eye (My World) - That beat is nice and chill. Mr. Prospect went on some other shit with that flow. The whole track is just a chill start. Best verse: Prospect 3.4/5
Lost For Days - Miley's flow was craaazy. I love that hook. Prospect verse was a great followup. M7 came off strong, but she still had such a laidback sense in her voice. I don't know what I think, but I love it. Like, I didn't expect it would be as dope as it was. (I mean that in the best way possible.) Best Verse: M7 "If you don't believe in me, then you's an atheist" - Emceeven 4/5
Recordin & Roastin - WOO. I was tired of the typical form (Miley, then Tommy, then Emceeven). This beat is hard. Tommy is hard. I love that verse. At this point in the mixtape. I'm starting to notice that Miley sounds like he's trying to sound like Ab-Soul on the flow tip, but it's not fully his thing, nawm saying? It's not bad, just could be improved. M7 said "you should always watch your back in my streets," and I sorta laughed because these are little white children we are talking about. Best Verse: Tommy Prospect "I'm so hot, my flow cold. You burning up while you shiver" -Tommy Prospect 3.2/5
Triple Threat - AYYYE. Much love for the So What sample. Shoutout to Prospect for that "Got yo girl on my snapchat" line. Best Verse: None really stood out to me. 2/5
Rumble In The Jungle - This track vibes. Best Verse: Miley's 1st one. (yeah lol) 2.3/5
Abstract - This is honestly the best track I've heard so much. I blame the beat and the change in flows. Ayo. I know M7 did not just make a reference to Kim Kardashian's sextape. Best Verse: Miley "I'm just happy that I grew up with a pot to piss in" -Tommy Prospect 4/5
Demonstration (ft. Wavey Nico) - So this is supposed to be the club banger, huh? This track is so hypocritical. The chorus is "We are selling records at a record rate!" Do these guys not realize this is a free mixtape? lol. There are actually like a lot of funny lines in this track. "I play this for yo team and they Joseph Gordon- LOVE IT." haha that is gold. I don't like the mixing so much on this track. No shade, the Wavey Nico guy is hella basic. It's a very quick, Rick-Ross style verse. (It reminds me of Ross' verse in Monster.) That group hook sounded so dope! "You see reality, I see a dream." -Tommy Prospect Best Verse: tie between Prospect and M7 3.2/5 Let You Live - This beat is pretty trill. The first line to stand out to me was "We hitting up that party like you hittin up that Pornhub." Hey, Ruby, don't just diss PornHub! They've never done a nigga wrong! Everybody's flow was fucking ridiculous! Wait a minute, this is M7's 2nd porn reference, but who's counting. wut. Favorite verse: all three of these were actually the dopest verses I've heard on the tape so far (despite the line against pornhub). The each had their own unique feel. I liked them all so much ahha. 4/5 Interlude - Chill ass beat and M7 teaching some lessons. I doubt much more you could ask for. (not gonna rate this one because it didn't feel like a full song, nawm saying? moreso an interlude, which it is.) Drugs on Everest - Shoutout to Miley for that chorus because that shit is groovy as fuck. Best Verse: Tommy 4.3/5 The Passion - "Shoutout to them freshmen." WAIT. TOMMY! AREN'T YOU A FRESHMAN? C'MON SON. That beat feels like some OF type shit. Rap dope. Stay dope. Miley talks about so much sex in his verse that it's pointless and annoying. "High off that sweet life. Pot cookie" -Tommy Prospect Best Verse: M7 3.8/5 Toro - If you wrote out a trap beat on paper and gave it to an orchestra to play, this is what that beat would sound like. It's awkwardly, hard as masturbation with your mom downstairs. I got a bit sad when the beat dropped because I thought the song was already over and I like this joint! haha. Miley's verse is pretty funny. Everything's trill here. Best verse: Miley Woo 4.8/5 Big Things In The City (ft. Jahkobi Martin-Senna) - WHOOOOOOOOOO IS THAT SAYNGING?!? PAIOKDE;LAVJEO;AKLDPOEIK! Jahkobi gets much love for that hook! Those Top Rookie cats get much love for knowing this dope cat. Crazy verse. Gotta love the jazzy ass beats. I love the irony in Tommy's verse. He talks about having new chrome kicks, but he's taking the bus and spent his last penny already. That's an urban artist for you, haha. This is easily my favorite song on the mixtape. Best Verse: MILEY SINGING 4.89999999999999 Runaway - fuck I don't even know what to say about this one. Tommy made this beat, so they askin' fo a lease. Best Verse: Tommy Prospect 2.7/5 Uneducation - This beat gets much love. I'm assuming Thomas sang some shit, chopped it out, and played it. I really fucks with it. This is probably my favorite beat on the tape. This is the most inspirational track on the tape. I love this song a lot. Miley had my favorite verse this whole tape. It was very intellectual, but still kept that inspirational feel. I love the whole combined chorus thing. the beat is so orgasmic tho... those synths at the end!! Best Verse: Miley Woo (M7 is a close 2nd) "In the end, we all gon die, so why you keep debating?" -Miley Woo 4.9/5
So here we are again. Another review, another ending. I feel like I have a lot to say about this group, but then I'll probably write this and it won't make so much since, so let me dive into this. First of all, there are no production credits anywhere and that annoys me. I'm assuming everything is made by the group's Producer/MC combo, Tommy Prospect. I applaud them for having all originals. The mixtape starts pretty basic to me, but as it progresses, their songs progress. There is sometimes more maturity in themes and ideas that I like. A big problem I see throughout the tape (moreso in the beginning) is that they'd be just rapping and talking. Like, they'd be saying stuff, but it wouldn't have much substance and they'd put in a fast flow to make sound cool. A lot of rappers do that and think it sounds cool, but what's a dope flow if you're saying nothing? What would Kendrick Lamar be if he switched topics with Cheif Keef? nawm saying? There would also be some typical lines I heard throughout the tape that just annoyed me ("I eat all of these rappers like they are dinner" -Miley Woo, "I'm caged in these bars" -Tommy Prospect, "What I'm cooking up"). Overall, the tape showed such potential with a mix of soulful stuff to just hard, trap type beats. It's a weird project that was going in different directions at time, but it was cool, you know? 74% - C

Summertime Sadness - A-1 [New Song]

What's up nerds and nerdettes? It's Bill Nye's 2nd cousin right here. This is a quick post. I've been a fan of A-1 since his first mixtape, After School Special. I don't know what it is about this guy Adam, but he makes good music. I don't know what it is to his music, but it all has a certain personality to it. I just saw this track in my facebook feed and pressed play. I was beyond impressed. The beat was made by Ryan Hemsworth and it is ridiculous. I love the sample, random noises, and that bass. A-1 touches on the dangers of Summertime, like the rise of murders and gang activities. It's a deep and somewhat touching song. The song sorta reminds me of a continuation to the end of Chance The Rapper's song, Pusha Man/Paranoia. Peep the track. It's amazing from my perspective.

Kilo Kish - K+ [Mixtape Review]

Sup dawg, it's Bill Nye's 2nd cousin aka Proffessor MPC, aka Big Ghost's prodigy, but you may know me as a nerd that goes on the internet by Waverly Spades. A few weeks ago, I stumbled upon this artist, Kilo Kish, while watching Red Bull's Hashtag$ series. (I'm definitely going to write a post about the series soon.) I wanted to listen to some of the artists featured on the show, so I downloaded her latest mixtape, K+. Honestly, I thought it would suck because she was classified in this genre called "Tumblrwave." I'm already not too fond of tumblr, and in the comments, I read that they only featured the weird Tumblr artists. I know Tumblr gets reeeally weird (and some of the artists featured in that episode were seemingly weird), so I slept on this for a while, but today, while I was washing laundry and scrolling through my Zune for a song, I was tired of seeing it just waste space, so I decided I'd figure if I really liked it or not.

Intro - In my downloaded copy, this track was titled "K+," so I expected some title song. After watching the promo video for this mixtape, I assume she's talking with some person about the place she had the launch party for the tape. Immediately, the pure conversation reminds me of Wiz Khalifa's Taylor Allderdice. That made me a bit sad because I really didn't like that mixtape and all the interviews seemed so generic. My expectations for this tape are very low at this point.

Goldmine (feat. Jesse Boykins III) [prod. by Star Slinger] - Ahhhh.. So the music comes in and look at that--- it isn't as bad as I expected! This track actually caught me a little offguard, but I'm glad it did. Throughout the song, Kish talks of some guy she likes that ignores her and doesn't know. It's so simplistic and elegant, but throws me off. Now I'm wondering what else this tape holds..
4.5/5

Ghost (feat. Childish Gambino) [prod. by Matt Martians & SBTRKT] - In the interview before this song, the male voice asks if she did a voice with someone named "Donald." Of course I presumed it was just some random nigga I've never heard of until DONALD FUCKING GLOVER comes in like "ghost!" This song is crazy. The beginning of the beat reminds me of Trinidad Jame$', All Gold Everything. It's a song that I didn't think I would like, but this is probably one of my favorite tracks on the whole thing. The beat is great too. Now I'm curious. How did this girl I never hear of before this get a feature from Childish Gambino? It's crazy. I'm also questioning what is she doing? Would you call that rapping or just talking? Why did she pull in Childish Gambino for a feature, but only get him to do a Rumor Has It Part 2 remix? hmm
"He mean with the text that says 'I like you.' Smiley face. one with Heartsy eyes. Ooh, you smiling?"
5/5

Trappin (feat. Vince Staples) [prod. by Earl Sweatshirt] - Now I'm really wondering, how am I just finding this girl? Like how did she get a beat from Earl Sweatshirt? Where'd she get a feature from Vince Staples?  Just gimme a minute to take a minute to take in the fact that she's sorta famous.. I thought they picked up random people on Tumblr for that episode of Hashtag$. This song isn't anything about Trappin'. It should be called "Pimpin'." Vince's verse sounds so lazy. This track is like the Hip Hop version of ethereal.
3.4/5

IOU [prod. by Matt Martians] - Now it's starting to annoy me that Kilo's voice is consistently monotonic. This is something I've never heard in female rappers, but it's new. At first, the whole song is sort of annoying, but I'm really in love with the chorus. Again, she's whining about some boy, but she does it so classily.
3.7/5

Turquouise (feat. Jesse Boykins III) [prod. by PROF CALC] - This track amazes me, but it annoys me that I can't always hear her vocals over the beat. The outro is so interesting to me.. Dream in turquoise.. Is this some female cry of the blues. So many interpretations, right here..
"First you find me crazy, but then you find out I was right"
4.8/5

Scones (feat. Childish Gambino) [prod. by Childish Gambino] - Is she talking to Childish Gambino on the phone? WHAT? I WANT TO TALK TO CHILDISH GAMBINO ON THE PHONE. (no homo.) It seems like at this point of the mixtape, she's no longer a cute girl hoping a boy would notice her. Now Kish wants that boy who noticed her to pay attention to her. Interesting change in tone.
"I know we say it, but we never do."
3.5/5

Love2K (feat. A$AP Ferg & Smash Simmons) [prod. by Very Rare] - Ferg did his typical Ferg shit. At one point he talks about being a baby's father. I doubt he's about that life. And then he sings.... and it's ethereal and reverbed out, so it's cool, but still.. that pitch... Kilo shows us that she's not like any other black girl who you might want to hit. It's a weird, but nice perspective to hear in female hip hop. You don't hear a lot of women rapping like "I'm my own woman, and not glorifying sex, just those little dashes of love I think I have." She's like a teenager. It's funny, but heartwarming.
"Give a fuck about a Fendi Prada if a nigga tryna holla"
3.8/5

Better (feat. Andrea Balency) [produced by Patrick Paige of The Internet] - This is probably the most touching song on the album. I'm pretty sure Kilo talks about what every girl feels at one point  or  another with guys. I guess I can't for know for sure, but girls tend to get really jealous of eachother for the simplest reasons. The bubbly pads really let you feel what Kish is feeling. This is a great song and really shows how conscious Kish can get.
"Tomorrow, she'll be Barbie and I'll be kicked out."
5.1/5

Creepwave (feat. Flatbush Zombies) [prod. by Cronos] - This is a very angry ending. Sad songs turn into mad songs. The tsundere, male protagonist turned antagonist is officially labeled a typical jerk. The beat is dark. The zombies go crazy. I feel I could say so much about this, but it speaks wonders for itself.
4.5/5

I honestly had a negative denotation of this tape before listening to it. I was reading an article on Complex a few days ago that said most Tumblr rap was bad, so I thought this might prove that for me. That guy was wrong though. Kilo Kish is some weird mix of Tumblrwave and Cloud rap. Half the time, I can't tell if she's rapping, that's her actually talking voice, or if she is singing very short notes. She's the most monotonic female rapper I've ever heard. And I hate categorizing her as a female rapper because rappers should just be rappers, not rappers and female rappers, but she is the most openly conscious female rapper I've ever heard.  Are all females that aren't Barbz, actually the female versions of betamales? I don't even want to call her a rapper. She's really just an artist.. Well she's much more than an artist. This mixtape was the journey of a girl who loved, got hurt, and got mad. It's a very Taylor Swift approach. She was asking for the guy in Goldmine, but by Ghost, she complained about how he teased her. I feel like if I was a girl, I'd be able to relate to this tape more, but being the douchebag betamale she raps about, I guess I can somewhat relate. (I swear CG's verse in Ghost was me talking.) Musically, the beats are so well put together in simplicity. Themes don't tend to confuse, but rather intrigue and lead you on. The parts where she's talking to her engineer (or whoever that random guy is), it's more authentic than I originally expected it to be. K+ was (don't call me cliche for saying this) a new musical experience for me. Check it out and leave your thoughts in the comments.

JuniorJTG - Smilin Faces [Audio]

Sup everybody. It's me, the orignal black nerd, aka Nardwuar behind a blog, aka the real Carlton Banks, but you may know me as Waverly Spades. Today, Indiana rapper, JuniorJTG sent me his new track "Smilin' Faces" and I suppose I'll tell you what I think of it.

When the beat starts playing, I thought I was listening to Rich Man and The Pauper. While it sorta has the same message (and same temptations sample), JunorJTG puts his own little flow on this. I've never really heard an Indiana rapper, so this sound is somewhat new to me, but at the same time, not. He sounds like a mix of an indie southern rapper, and everyone from Chicago. (Indiana is right next to Illinois.) Overall, I like the song, but I do really hate the mixing. Vocals too loud, not mixed with the beat enough, vocal samples not loud enough, all that stuff that usually annoys me, but it's an okay song.

Jase - Waiting...[New Mixtape]

Download Mixtape | Free Mixtapes Powered by DatPiff.com

What's up everybody? It's the real black nerd here, and I would like to say, "What am I doing?" I've been bumping this joint for like a month or so and still haven't posted it to the blog. I honestly didn't know much about Jase before I checked  out his free album, but I'm glad I checked it out. If you happen to be ignorant of Jase's identity, he's a rapper from Baltimore. He's associated with TrapRockRadio and he's part of TAGMG.
This album here.. This thing is amazing. It's late and honestly, I'm too lazy to write much, but I'd like to say that an album like this is something not so new, but almost forgotten in rap music. It's a versatile album. You've got songs of all variety. There's the random ones, hard ones, smooth ones, etc. There's literally a little bit of everything on here. With production from Street Scott, Dre Stolah, and more, the beat selection on here is obviously ridiculous. The features are simply shattering. Jase's flows makes up for his lack of topics. This joint is Nerd approved. peep it

Jay Verze - David Ruffin [New Song]

What's up? It's me, the real Carlton Banks aka the Based Trap God aka the Original black Nerd aka Bill Nye's 2nd Cousin. Today, I'm here with Jay Verze's latest single David Ruffin. I know, I know. I'm late. This single dropped on like the first day of the year and it's the 28th. I got school. Petition me. Well let's get to the song now.
Produced by Scrilla (who seems to be one of Verze's favorite Soundclick producers), this beat is just too smooth. Througout the track, Verze raps about how much life has changed for him in the past year as he's been getting popular making music. We all know that story. When people start to see another person on the comeup, they try to hop on the bandwagon. In the chorus, Mr. 21117 spits "They all tryna see it now. Got 'em thinking wow. They saying 'Oh you made it now? C'mon, let's get down. I'm so proud. You my brother now. We gon' make it out.'" While Verze complains of some people calling him on his high horse, his feelings are completely understandable. I've known of Verze since I heard his feature on Baltimore. Along with a lot of Baltimore talent, Verze has really been coming up. He's in the newspaper, doing these interviews, and opening up for Cam'ron. It's only natural that people would hop on the bandwagon. The song is a little motivation to keep going. I like the title reference to the late Temptation, David Ruffin. He started in the Temptations as a backup, but later became the frontman. The difference between him and Verze though is that ego problems (and a slight cocaine addiction) eventually killed one of them. JayIsonCocainelol 

My advice to Verze: Stay humble until you really make it. Then rerelease this song. haha. When old niggas come up like "C'mon let's get down," just give them the number to the rejection hotline and get so much satisfaction when you give them that face like ----->

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.

Eske - Fuckin Problems (ft. BKnitts, Tommy Prospect & Bobby Woody) [New Song]

Ayo! It's Bill Nye's 2nd cousin aka the original Black Nerd, Waverly Spades! I'm pretty sure this song was released about a month ago, but I had to post it! It has three people that I've posted before and love! (BKnitts, Bobby Woody, and Tommy Prospect) If you don't recognize Tommy Prospect, it's because he used to go by the name TGK. "Tommy Prospect" sounds a bit more matured to me. I like it. The new kid here is a Milwaukee rapper that was raised in the suburbs of Chicago (lolwut?) named Eske. I'm pretty sure that's a river in Ireland. And now that I've taught you something new, we can go on with the song! I'll just tell you guys how I like it verse by verse.

BKnitts - This verse was one of the hardest to me. Also the 2nd funniest. "Sweet Jesus. BKnitts, stop rapping like you mean it! People gotta think you're not manic or conceited!" The verse easily switches around and gets a bit narcissistic. That's not a bad thing. It's just really clever to use your problems on a trap called Fuckin' Problem lol. "Got 2Chainz, I'll be glad to rip em off ya!" Did I hear BKnitts do Schoolboy Q's "yawk yawk" thing?

Eske - I have mixed feelings about this verse. It's not bad or anything, but you know how people feel about ASAP Rocky's verse of the original to this song? That's how I feel about this verse. It's only feature quality, but it's his song. Eske speaks a lot about the job market and rappers messing things up being his problems, but other times, lyrics put together just don't make sense to me. Overall, this verse is great. I listened to some of the other stuff on this guys YouTube where I like his verses more. They just make more sense to me! My main complaint is the quality. The verse sounds recorded on a laptop! Step that game up, son!
"Music game is tough and this job market's cutthroat." 

Tommy Prospect - I like that first line. It reminds me of Camus' "Maman died today" in The Stranger. "Me and Bobby just some hoodrat misfits." idk why exactly, it's just odd. like, who starts a verse like that? lol. "I'm gifteeeed like Christmas!" I see who is the Drake of this song. lol. "See a 14 year old, all y'all know is the man!" I like Tommy's verse because instead of rapping about his problems, he raps about his lack thereof. Not saying he has a lack thereof, but this is the verse that seems most mainstream crafted, but it's not. Instead of complaining, it's basking in the happiness of the moment. I fucks widit.
"I'm gon punch my problems in the face. What the fuck is a problem anyway?"

Bobby Woody - okay as soon as I heard "THEY LOVE DINGO GANG THAT'S THE FUCKIN' PROBLEM," I had that face like "this nigga.." This verse is the funniest to me. Bobby clearly is the one who sticks to the topic of the song: fucking girls; but his problem: girls don't want to fuck him. lol. "I said 'girl, I know  you want this dick!' She said 'Bobby, that shit sick!'" Like it starts off really serious like "And now this music shit is a business," but somehow gets to lines like "A virgin getting more bitches on his Toshiba" lmao is this nigga rapping about porn? I don't understand! And he gets to talking about the friend zone and shit. Somebody, please put this in RapGenius for me. I'm having a fuckin problem understanding what he's rapping about!
"Ho happy she got a nigga acting niggerish.. Bitch, I got a white girl acting liquorish!"

Overall, I like the song! Nerd approval over here!

Oh and by the way, I saw this.. That video is almost at 1000 views. Where's the video, you liars?

Diplomatic - Vital Information [Single]

I know I'm late, but a few months ago, this dude that goes by Diplomatic sent me his single called "Vital Information." I keep telling myself I'll get to these sooner or later, well here I am finally getting to it. Diplomatic is a young rapper/producer from Baltimore. This is one of the singles from his upcoming mixtape "Dipluminati"
The beat is like a mix of Lex Luger and some 2006 RnB. It's smooth and hard at the same damn time. hmmm. The first verse is hard with a lot of interesting stuff said.
"Sex, money, and drugs. Pick on of the above. That's all you niggas love thinking you are a thug." That's a not so typical line about some very typical niggas.
"Devil worshiping idols whom are suicidal" I actually really like this line. That's probably the most significant thing I've heard today. Of course, I'm not one of those people who claims every artist is Illuminati, but say if Kanye West was (which I don't believe he truly is), he had lines like "Sold my soul to the Devil. That's a crappy deal" and "Suicide, what kinda talk is that?" Diplo goes at some of our greats with that one right there.
The chorus is interesting. "Take this vital info, stop being a bitch!" That's my new catch phrase. lol.
Overall, I think the song is okay. Diplomatic also made the beat. I like how it goes from intellectual one line to silly the next. It's Nerd approved. Check it out and see if you like it.

Y1 - FinallY Or1ginal (Mixtape Review)

What's up errrybody? It's me, the real Carlton Banks aka Bill Nye's 2nd cousin aka that nerdy ass nigga who decided to start a blog and bash on the niggas he hates aka Waverly Spades. I haven't done a mixtape review in a minute. Recently, Y1 found his way into my ear and I was itching to take a listen. Nicholas Pullen is an up and coming rapper from Baltimore going by Y1. Let's see what he sounds like.

Members Only (Introduction) [Prod. by Piz Corleone] - This song is a nice intro. Y1 throws some nice bars with a dope flow. Nice way to start shit.
"I don't need critique. I am who the real is." Well fuck this review.
4.5/5

Famous [Prod. by Audio Dope] - That hook is very warming. What is that from? It sounds so familiar. Y1 tells us how he wants to live. It's life most of us go for. I like how Y1 paints his dream to us. I really like his flow. The beat is great. Idk why, but this is better than other songs I hear where artists are complaining about how they want fame. This song is dope.
4.7/5

Don't Give Up [Prod. by William Kraz Johnson (of Eyecon Music)] - That MJ sample! yasss. That beat is on some 9th Wonder shit. This song is smooth. Y1 raps more about fame, but from a different angle, the dreaming part. The premise of fame. Y1 makes a dream so inspirational.
"Baltimore til my back break. Even though it's just a lil spec, that lil spec gon give this man a check."
4.2/5

Skylight [Prod. by Kae B (of Eyecon Music)] - This song had a dope music video. It shows a lot of Baltimore areas that I'm familiar with, which makes me happy. Someone from Baltimore getting love like that is a great thing to see. This easygoing song is nice to vibe to as the tape continues.
"I'm just tryna make it to the skylight. Surrounded by vampires, what a Twilight"
5.2/5

Recruiter (Skit) - Damn. I usually don't like skits too much, but this skit speaks numbers, not only about unemployment, but how most jobs aren't really shit. I'm glad I'm not the only one who believes it. Don't conform to just being a number. "Can we hurry the fuck up cuz I got class in like 45 minutes" lololol

What I Gotta Do [Prod. by William Kraz Johnson] - This song is nice. It took a few listens to get used to the chorus. Nice message on determination.
"The weed I had to cough it up because it was clouding every vision I would conjure up"
3/5

2000 to Forever (ft. 810 & Black Sunn) [Prod. by Kahlil The Wiz Kid] - The beat is that feel good shit! Y1 killed it and picked the perfect artists for features. When I first heard 810, I thought that was Da Kid Gowie! lol. 810 and Black Sunn perfectly complimented the track this is probably one of my faves off of the tape.
"All you do is slang hatred, then hide in the Matrix."
4/5

Reincarnation [Prod. by William Kraz Johnson] - Ohhh we're slowing things down now, huh? The beat sounds like a cut off one of the old Kanye albums. Y1's faster flow goes perfect over this. It's like Twista's verse on Slow Jamz. haha. I fucks with this track.
"Sometimes you gotta change the paint to get the right picture"
3.9/5

Rich Man & The Pauper (ft. Jay Verze) [Prod. by William Kraz Johnson] - A pauper is defined as a person without any means of support, but is there anything that defines a man as rich?  I remember when this joint dropped a few months ago. My question since I first heard this: Out of Jay Verze and Y1, who is the rich man and who is the pauper?
4.2/5

Music Is Cocaine (Skit) - At first, I thought this was just some random skit where Y1's playing guitar and I was like "wtf?," and then my nigga started singing. This should be made into a real song. It sounds like some J. Cole shit.

Let's Get Away (ft. Ashley Alexander) [Prod. by William Kraz Johnson] - That sample has me reminiscent of J. Dilla stuff. I'm also thinking of 9th Wonder. This track is just chill. It's the equivalent to a filler for me. I like. Vocals are provided by Ashley Alexander and they are quite beautiful.
3/5

Beautiful (ft. B Swails) [Prod. by Go (of Misfitz Sounds)] - Go (of Misfitz Sounds) gets mad love for the beat. It's nice and smooth, but I can't find the guy online whatsoever! Y1 drops a few hypnotizing bars. B. Swails voice is just soothing. The bitches are gonna love this. Y1 is adulating someone in the best way possible. I'm going to sing this to a girl and see where that gets me. lol
"I just like to live like it's my last night cuz when the day comes, this a past life."
4.7/5

Drinks In The Air [Prod. by Joshua "Jehdi" Thomas of The Humans] - The idea of this song makes me chuckle a bit. It starts on some really chill, Jamie Foxx type shit, and then the verse is  just Y1 going in. It's a nice, sudden change of feel. I don't drink, but I'm sipping my Pepsi to this joint. Jehdi is an amazing fool for this beat, especially that chorus section. This joint is the perfect mix of rap and club RnB (the Jamie Foxx/T-Pain shit).
4.2/5

Little Does She Know Part 1 [Prod. by William Kraz Johnson] - So much, yet so little to say about this song.. I'll let it speak for itself. Beat.. also crazy. Can't wait for Part 2.
5.2/5

Kobe Bryant [Prod. by Piz Corleone] - GOT ME FEELIN LIKE I'M KOBE BRYANT. This beat is on some Waka shit. If you were here, you could see me doing my swag dance. This nigga, Y1. This nigga right here, son! This nigga right here! Somebody put this shit on 92Q so I can drive to school like "CHANGE MY NUMBER ON THESE FUCKERS LIKE I'M KOBE BRYANT!" I love this song. I'm usually not into songs over beats like this, but Y1 is so versatile that I actually like this! His flow is ridiculous!
"Might be on the same team, but there's no alliance"
5/5

Goodnight - I thought the beat was a Kanye intro lol. This song starts with some crazy lines like "Don't be sipping like a bitch. I give a damn bout what yo throat say!" The beat is RIDICULOUS (after you get past the Kanye intro. lol.) The chorus reminds me of some J. Cole shit. This track is stupendous. The beat has a Kanye ending too. lol.
"Just don't be like Daniel and try to Jack my shit!"
4.9/5

Lincoln's Address - This track had a dope music video. The song is just inspirational. It's a nice look around and a great way to end the tape.
"Even though I'm 1%, my flow has to represent the 99."
4/5

Point blank, this whole tape was great. I heard a little of Y1 before, but I honestly did not know what to expect. I wouldn't call this a mixtape, but an album that Y1 was nice enough to give to us for free. Pullen is an amazingly versatile artist, going from songs like Skylight, to Let's Get Away to Kobe Bryant to Lincoln's Address and keeping it all real and amazing. There is never a lack in quality, stylistically or lyrically. This is honestly one of the best mixtapes I've heard this year. Y1 at times sounds like the perfect mix of Lupe Fiasco, J. Cole, and Kendrick Lamar. That's 3 of my favorite rappers rolled into a guy from Baltimore. This was a great mixtape and I can't wait to see what else Y1 has in store.

This review was brought to you by Waverly Spades, and I'm off to reluctantly write an essay on the feminism movement of the 1920's.

Bobby Woody - Find Freedom Lonely Losers

Hey nerdy people. It's me, the real Carlton Banks, aka the real Black Nerd, aka Bill Nye's 2nd cousin through adoption. Today, we have the Loser Philospher, Bobby Woody's new track, Find Freedom Lonely Losers

I don't know if you guys know, but I know Bobby Woody personally. He inspired me to make this blog shit. I was waiting for him to drop something so I could tell him what I think (and bash him heheh). People call him me. He's not me.

jk I'm totes Bobby Woody, guys.

ok back to the song

"I smell bullshit.. Must be cuffin season." HAHAHAH

Somebody should put this on RapGenius.com. There are quite a few lines here that I'm pretty sure most non-nerdy people just wouldn't get, or some of us nerds who probably didn't catch certain things the first time. I honestly missed a few, but then I listened a second time and was just like dayum. Mostly talking about the cartoon references like: "I'm battling tragedy and mana is baffling. Yugioh showed me dueling, but cartoons ain't explain gravity. It's a theory, it's grappling me down, this isn't happening." That line right there is pretty cool. I'm pretty sure the talk of mana getting lower (baffling) is from Bakugan or one of the old TCG's that we all used to be on when we were kids and then it leads on into Yu-Gi-Oh which sets up a bit of a playful tone. The part that's like "Cartoons ain't explain gravity... It's grappling me down," suddenly saddens everything. Although, I thought that was a bit cool because it referred to the album art (which is a screenshot of the Pigeon Man episode of Hey Arnold) that I heard mentioned nowhere else. In reality, Pigeon Man would not be able to be carried by pigeons lol. That's a bit of an underlying plot for the next line where Woody (hehe funny name) where he begins to speak as he's in a conversation with someone else talking a confused girl out of suicide. "Starfire made it look easy." Flying=Suicide. It's.. touching?

The chorus is okay. Should've kept Amber Coffman on it! Her voice was so beautiful! and that body is so.. statesque..

The next verse starts out a bit offbeat to me, but it's the one I like best. The first line alone, "There is the American dream and the Black American Teen," is a big criticism on the American dream. If you read Of Mice and Men, George and Lennie's dream of a house of their own and working for themselves; that was and still is widely considered as the American Dream. The dream of a large amount (NOT ALL) of black kids wanting to be rappers or models. Again, not all, just a majority. Two very skewed dreams. It leads into talk of murders and a father brutally hitting his family. This is the area of which Bobby wants to Get Free of. One last line I'll touch on that almost gave me hope in humanity was "I seek answers that Sophocles couldn't reach. I'm in the search for pansophy. Maybe man will see that pansophy isn't impossible, but most of man's greatest knowledge has yet to be thought of." That line is a little stroke of intellect. I love it. I know we all know Sophocles (the ancient Greek playwright). I'm assuming by "couldn't reach," means that he died, or couldn't live long enough to experience everything. (Maybe this line is about Aeschylus. lol) At first, I thought it was a mistake and he meant to say Socrates the philosopher. As it keep going he mentions "The search for pansophy." Pansophy is basically, knowing everything. Ancient Greek philosophers believed it was possible to write down everything they knew into books. Apparently Bobby does too, just not yet. I feel like the Sophocles/Pansophy lines were supposed to connect somewhere, but I'm not sure. welp.

One line that I just didn't get in this song was "As I jump through dimensions like breach and breach security.." This is why we need Rap Genius. lol 

The song was brilliant and the lyrics are well-crafted. If I could write so much about one of his remixes, imagine what I could do if this dude dropped a mixtape? You need to stop playing that one song a month thing and drop something serious! Or Imagine what I'd write about Kendrick Lamar's new album.. yeah haha. Go listen to it and support a Baltimore artist that I support.

This review was brought to you by Waverly Spades, and now I'm off to exaggeratingly belabor some other poor sucker's submission.

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.

Shwaze Collins - Forever Dope

Adrian sent me this a few weeks ago around the time I put up Jay Verze's interview! I told him I'd put his tape up, but I feel bad because I've yet to do it! lol. But here it is! The reason this review didn't come sooner is because I already listened to the mixtape and for the review, I have to listen to each song over and put in a little more thought. Usually, I wouldn't mind, but school is hard work. Speaking of that, I just got my Interims. Someone tell me why I don't have all A's, please.
Ok, back on topic. Adrian "Shwaze" Collins is a 19 year old emcee from Baltimore, MD. Working his way up in the scene, you probably know who Shwaze somewhat is. If you don't, you've most likely at least heard him on a few Jay Verze songs or Brandon Woody's Power Circle remix. I like the dude, and here is his new mixtape, Forever Dope. My 2 cents are below.

Download Mixtape | Free Mixtapes Powered by DatPiff.com

Forever Dope [Prod. by Sdot Fire] - Ahhhhh Is that Street Fighter? I am already entertained. Nerd boy happy. That gets extra points. The intro is awesome. When the song starts, the Sdot produced track is FIRE (Pun intended). This first song is a nice taste of the lyricist Shwaze is.

"I ain't saving you hoes. What I look like? Private Ryan?"

4.2/5

The Grind (ft. Juice) [Prod. by Scrilla Beats] - Ok, I don't like this song as much as the last one, but it's okay. This is one of those songs I try to get girls to booty dance on me with (if only, if only). The beat alone makes you feel whizbang. I don't think I'm familiar with Juice, but he did a cool verse. That chorus is mixed roughly. Their verses didn't really impress me, but it's an aiight song.

2.7/5

We Make Money [Prod. by Y1] - Y1 produced this? Like, the rapper Y1? I didn't even know he made beats! Haha the beat alone is feel good. Collins threw on a few hot verses. The song is beautiful. I would say that if the song wasn't mainly about that money money life, it would be perfect, but this sounds like one of those songs that would be in the background of a montage of niggas throwing money around after they robbed a bank or something (sort of like in The Town, Tower Heights, or when the dude stole all of that money in Jumper). lol

4/5

Fame [Prod. by Dre Beats] - First off, I'd like to say that fame isn't everything, but let's be honest. We all want it. The beat is stupendous and Shwaze's vocals really compliment it. I like it. I feel like Shwaze should've put Jay Verze on the track. That would've been really dope. To the producer named "Dre Beats," as long as Dr. Dre and his headphones are around, that's probably not a good name.

"I can't use euphemisms if the youth don't get it."

4.7/5

Shellshocked (ft. Geter) [Prod. by Lexi Banks] - I'mma be brutally honest. I don't like this one. that's all. (y'all know I loathe trappin beats.) I guess the verses were cool.
2/5

Do It [Prod. by Sdot Fire] - When the beat drops and Collins' starts rapping, I'm just dancing around like Bill Cosby, over there. This song is hot. I like it. I'm not too fond of the chorus, but the rest is nice.
3/5

My Life (Interlude) [Prod. by Piz Corleone] - The first line that I really heard and made me think was "It's niggas tryna stop my shine, but it's Shwaze, baby!" I was just like, what the fuck are you saying, bro? But the rest of the song is cool. At times, he switches from typical rapper to lyric.
"Should I sell that shit they measure on a triple beam just so that y'all nigga can't appreciate me?"
3.3/5

Unstoppable (ft. Ta'Ler) [Prod. by Zone Beats]- I like how his last line on the interlude was "I'm Unstoppable" and it goes into this. The beat is FIRE. Azula ain't got nothing on Zone with this one. "It's a cold world, but I'm not from the Ville." lololol. I like this song. That is all.
"I have a dangerous mindset. Blind eyes, quiet is kept."
3/5

Party Everywhere (ft. Yung Ram) [Prod. by Piz Corleone] - In this song, Shwaze tolerably sounds like everyone on MMG, but Ross and Gunplay. Ram sounds like Gunplay. lol. I think it's the beat. Beats like that  have been rapped on a certain way for so long, that people don't change it up, you know? like this sounds like it could've been on Self Made 2. The Chorus even sounds like Meek Mill bawling for no real reason. This song has me doing my Bill Cosby swag dance, but damn, where's the originality?
2.4/5

The Return [Prod. by Sledgren] - Sledgren be on some Lex type shit sometimes. Anybody in the mood for something a little more.. tardigrade? It feels like Shwaze's flow gets off at time. I don't really know. The song is aiiight. I hear a lot of those typically recycled lyrics in this song.
"Pillaging their villages like I am a pirate." lol. pirates don't leave the ship. c'mon guise
2/5

Gang Green Gang (ft. Rickie Jacobs) [Prod. by Zone Beats] - Ok, I didn't like the intro to the beat, but I really fucks with this one. I had that Obama face when the beat dropped and Shwaze started rapping. Rickie Jacobs just killed it as usual. What could I have expected though?
"Better watch what you say son. They don't play fair where I'm from."
3.7/5

Devil In A Tight Dress/Curse (Interlude) [Prod. by Lexi Banks] - Sooo, I was expecting Kanye West's Devil In A New Dress to start playing, but instead, I'm hearing the end of Fancy by Drake looped. I'm not complaining. It's a smooth intro and I like it. Collins goes on about that one perfect girl, that we all dream of. That hook is hot, too. I know it's sampled, but I just love how it was placed. While describing this girl, Shwaze definitely gets cheesy, but it's cute. When it goes to acapella, I can hear that it's heartfelt, but still cheesy, you know? I like it all though. I feel like it would've been cooler if they were two separate track; it would sound like two different chapters of a story. I like how in the end, we find out, it's all just a dream.
4.6/5

Self Made (ft. Y1) [Prod. by Scrilla Beats] - Ok Shwaze's 1st verse sounds horribly mixed. TIP: Please don't let your mixtapes have a horrible mix. The beat and the hook makes this sound like some XV type stuff. I like. Aahhhh I heard another "Green like Cee Lo" line. That has to be one of the most overused lines since "Fuck You" came out. While I don't like Shwaze's verses that much, Y1 put some magic on here. It makes me wonder what Y1 would sound like on a song with XV. (Can we make that happen?) "Jay Verze the future. Shwaze the underground king and I'm the overlord of rap dropping brown things." That one line in Y1's verse makes me really think about the whole ISMG team in a light of where they fit, like  a puzzle. it's cool.
"I try to be great, but everybody in the city loves to hate"
2.4/5

Bullseye [Prod. by Scrilla Beats] - Scrillaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!! Scrilla is that nigga for this beat. lol. Shwaze didn't kill it, but it's listenable. I'm pretty sure I heard him say in the chorus "I'm chillin like a chandalier." lolwut? I hear a lot of weak lines that don't really make since to me, but I'm not gonna go into that. The chorus feels so off to me.
1.9/5

Heavy Hitters (ft. Jay Verze & Yung Ram) [Prod. by Sdot Fire] - When I heard the beat, I started thinking of Mercy. I was ready for the Rick Hertz tag. I feel Shwaze could've went harder. Verze killed it. That lil nigga definitely sounds like Wiz on this. lol. I never noticed that until my brother told me yesterday, and I'm hearing it a bit, but it's somewhat different.. It's cool. I like that. Ram's verse is eh
2.6/5

Outro [prod. by SdotFire] - This is probably my 2nd favorite track. The beat speaks for itself and Shwaze compliments.
4.2/5

Ok, so Shwaze is a decent artist. The dude really has potential in my eyes, but the problem with that is that I've been thinking he's had potential for the past year or two. He needs to quit with the typical lines and make each and every one on that 2004 Lil Wayne level. Also, almost every song seems like something that would be played in the club. I feel like Collins needs some variation in his style. The best artist can create more than the feelings of love and fun. The mixtape is very decent in my opinion. I expect better from you Shwaze!

Return Of The Mack - Mack Scott

That cover art is just fucking gangster. Ain't it? The thug life definitely chose Mack. When this dropped, this guy went hood platinum in less than 24 hours. Dope, right? We all know I'm a pimp, so this is my type of music. I had to check it out. See what I really thought about it below.

Muhfuckin Mack - So the first track is self titled. That's something that doesn't happen often. This song feels all 80's. Like the Black Dynamite of rap music. (Does anyone watch that show?) It's one of those long verses and Mack Scott just tells us who he is. A rapper with a pimp flow. It's sick. I like this.
"Purple suit and Gator Boots, bitch I think I'm Slickback"
3/5

It's Not A Game (Prod. by Clams Casino) - The beat.. It took me a minute, but I definitely fucks with it. Mack just goes hard from the beginning to the end. I like the song and at the same time, I don't know.. The outro on the beat was nice though.
2.7/5

Cadillac Deville (Prod. by Pimp C) - ahhh yeah. This song is smooth. This song reminds me of an old Snoop Dogg track. This is definitely some pimp shit. This is one of those songs where you take out that Old School Caddy and turn the windows down.
3/5

Pimp $lap (Prod. by Oab Jenkins)- some more pimp shit. The beat is just trill. I fucks with that. Not much to say besides the fact that this a dope song.
"Looks like Cinderella slipped the glass off or her sole, but I won't save her"
4/5

Purple Naked Ladies (Prod. by Piz Corleone) - As soon as I heard the white girl say "Dosha Burna Beats," I was like, "awwwwwwwwwwwwwww yeahhhhhh. This nigga got Piz on the track." It amazes me how popular Piz is here in Baltimore. Doesn't he live in Louisiana? lol. I like this song. It makes me chuckle a bit. The lyrics are starting to get typical. A lot of talking about bitches, money, and drugs. The beat is smooth, though.
2.9/5

Notorious M.A.C.K. (Dreamin') - This is niiiice. This is chillll. That Big Poppa instrumental. yasssssssssssssssss. This song is more focused on his dreams and I really fucks with that. If he had an original beat this chill, this would be the perfect track.
"Pick her up around 1' and then I bust. Kwame Brown"
4.3/5

Game (Interlude) (Prod. by SangoBeats) - ooooh. I like the beat already. Mack hasn't started rapping yet, This Sango guy is nice.
Oh so he's not going to rap? That's cool. Let the music speak for itself.
I don't like that guitar whatsoever, but it adds a bit to the ambiance. That's nice.
ahh that's better.
eww. weird guitar instrument again.
Saved by the bells.
5/5

It's Alright (Prod. by Jay Verze) (Prod. by Piz Corleone) - AHHHHHHH SHIT. JAY IS SINGING AGAIN. *hits two step.* Verze sounding emotional as shit. He getting into this shit. lol. Let me stop before he disowns my blog. This is another one of those break up songs. Piz laid down something smooth and Mack tells a story. So to that girl who seeing other dudes and messing around and other shit, it's alright. Rappers get more bitches anyway.
"Even Einstein was fucking wrong."
4.6/5

Nemi$i$ (Living Dead) - Oh snap. I wasn't feeling that beat at first, but then Mack starts killing it. This is dope! Oh wait. Did I just hear a Kony reference? lost points. Other than that, this is hot. A few typical gun/war references, that sorta thing, but it's cool.
"Niggas fiend for brain like zombies."
3/5

WHOTHEFUCKAREYOU (prod. by Butch Dawson) - So is he Jujuan Allen or Butch Dawson? Well whatever, Butch made a nice little beat. I like the hook. Some of the message gets a bit typical, but the feel of the song is pretty cool. I can  bump my head and do my swag dance to this.
"Killing is a hobby. I use beats as examples."
3.5/5

Stick Up Kids (93 WAVE SHXT) (ft. Butch Dawson) - Butch just killed this. I love his verse on this. Sorry, but it gives you a lot to work up to, Mack, and you did. again. Butch called himself Jujuan Allen. which should I call him. This is probably my favorite verse from Mike the whole tape. Fuck it, this is my favorite song. That's that shit I do like.
"Some call em criminals, gremlins, and straight villains. Niggas just like you chasing their dream to see millions."
5.2/5

Sam$on II (prod. by Oab Jenkins) - I like this beat, but honestly, it needs to be turned up. Nice to know the vocals are clean, but I like hearing the beat sometimes too! haha. The song is chill and as I think I said previously, I love chill songs. Of course the song is about drugs and I don't condone that, but the song is chill, so it's cool haha. The chorus is cool.
"I'm not your everyday, average, drug connoisseur. I'm your mentor. An icon. Someone you can rely on."
3.7/5

#AriEmmanuel (ft. Storee) (Prod. by G14) - Another song about the bitches. lol. I like this beat. The first verse is cool. It's all feel good. not much more to say about this. Whoever that was at 1:50 needs to work on that flow. that was a bit disastrous. Not the best ending to the tape, but it's cool.
2.6/5

Overall, the mixtape was decent. It was definitely some Pimp $hit. I'm a pimp over, so I fucks with that, nawmsaying? Mack tended to repeat a lot of the same messages of bitches, drugs, and money, but it's cool. At times, something doesn't rhyme, and it sounded a bit weird to me, but in the end, it's all chill, so I like it. I love the beats. There's nothing I just didn't like on the tape. I can say that. Go download it and support.
