BERNER - URBAN FARMER

BERNER
URBAN FARMER
2012

This dude is so underrated and has released
some of my favourite collabo albums of all time
with the likes of The Jacka, Ampichino, Messy Marv... 
And you know when he drops a solo, he drops that good stuff.
This album tops his previous "The White Album" by a mile
and i loved that one. If you don't know who this is, shame on you
and you better get acquainted quick! The 2nd half of this album
alone is so damn good, it's easily one of this year's finest!
21 tracks and except for tracks 7-8-9 (which feel somewhat out of place, 
yet still bump) this is album is so damn consistent and i literally
had this album on repeat for 3 weeks straight. Berner knows
how to pick productions and his dude Cozmo is one if the Bay's
best producers to me. Not just the bay. He provides the best beats
for Berner and together it's pure chemistry. Add the usual Bay suspects
in the mix and you just can't get no better. This is why i love
Bay Area rap so much. One thing that still baffles me is why
Wiz Khalifa's name and Taylor Gang is associated here. The love for
weed is all i can think off. Luckily it's just that and there's very little
influence from Wiz's skinny ass on here. His two verses are actually not bad
either and makes me miss the "Show N Prove"-Khalifa. 
Anyway, 17 (!!!) 5/5 tracks and i think we have a serious contender
for album of the year! Get acquainted!
Overall Score: 9.9/10
