MEEK MILL - DREAMS AND NIGHTMARES

MEEK MILL

DREAMS AND NIGHTMARES

2012

Jesus FUCK! After two ok-ish mixtapes that had

some tight tracks on it, i sure was looking forward to

Meek dropping this but i did not expect it to be this

fuckin good! This might be the best album yet from 
the whole MMG camp. Bumped it for like 4 hours straight
front to back and still fiending for more!

1. Dreams And Nightmares
What a beautiful intro huh. And then...Meek isn't finished yo...hollup! 
Man that change-over has got to be one of the best in rap ever 
(besides Lil Wyte's "I Know You Strapped"). Mean mug like a muthafucka 
and get ready for one hell of ride! This sets the album off 
oh so perfectly. Sublime shiznit! 5/5
2. In God We Trust
This one keep the rawness coming with dope lyrics
although i'm missing something here melody-wise,
but still a pretty tight joint. 4/5
3. Young And Getting It
Just too damn catchy and the autotune for once makes
it even better. I hate kid cudi for real and even though
this sounds like one of his hooks, i don't care.
This track bumps and has so much more going for it. 5/5
4. Traumatized
Very nice sample interpolation here. Meek is killing it
on the accapella's and his timing and flow is just perfect.
Lovin the drums here too, perfect choice. 5/5
5. Believe It ft Rick Ross
Pfew, this shit goes so hard. You just gotta love it!
When Meek starts rippin it, you're in for a treat.
Another typical MMG beat but oh so fly nonetheless. 5/5
6. Maybach Curtains ft. John Legend, Nas & Ris Ross
Nice change here and a very nice track with a grand Nas
who brings the whole track to the right level. Meek does
his thing too. Just sit back and listen. 5/5
7. Amen ft. Drake
I'd never thought i'd say this but Drake slayed it! Cot'Damn.
Crazy cool track and the snare play is killer. 5/5
8. Young Kings
When bumping this in the background this song catches
your attention which might not be the case cruisin through it. 5/5
9. Lay Up ft. Wale, Rick Ross & Trey Songz
Took some time to warm up to it, but with a couple thorough
listens, this is a damn dope track and Trey kills it. 5/5
10. Tony Story Pt. 2
Dope storytelling going on over a solid beat that keeps
you engaged all the way. Very nice. 5/5
11. Who Your Around ft. Mary J. Blige
Despite my mild hatred for Mary, she nailed this hook again.
Very nice track for real. 5/5
12. Polo And Shell Tops
This is just straight up crack. Prolly my favourite track
of the album thanks to a thrilling beat with Meek spittin
with so much energy and enthusiasm. Flat out man. 5/5
13. Rich And Famous ft. Louie V
Another favourite. Awesome hook and production. 5/5
14. Real Niggas Come First
Lovin the strings and whole eerie vibe. Meek is once
again all over it and delivers a great ending to the album
(although i would've loved "ready or not" from Dreamchasers 2
on here instead for some reason... but all good... 5/5

Seriously, did you count the 5/5 joints up there? That is
just bananas and not many albs did that for me this year
(Beanie Sigel's "This Time" comes close but that was a short 
album and really most 5's here kill those, so...)
This will for sure be in my top 3 and i did not see this one coming!!
Amazing production with a flawless Meek Mill who killed every
flow and verse he spit. What more can you ask for! Salute man!
And despite one lesser track, ima have to give out
the first perfect score this year! Finally, fuckin A! 

Overall Score: 10/10

RICK ROSS - GOD FORGIVES, I DON'T

RICK ROSS

GOD FORGIVES, I DON'T

2012

The first Maybach Music Group collabo alb was sick
and i loved it, despite never being that big a fan of Rick Ross.
After that things went downhill fast for me. Pill left, Wale
didn't deliver with his sophomore alb, and especially the 2nd
MMG album which was the biggest letdown. So i wasn't
particularly looking forward to this one.
But Ricky Rozay knows how to choose production and pick
tracks that would make anyone sound rich.
Still not a fan per se, but this album did surprise me
and has some really tight tracks on it. The opening
tracks 'Pirates' & '3 Kings' are superb, especially the latter
which has Ross coming real tight with his verse alongside
Dr. Dre and Jiggaman. And that beat is incredible!
Things stay steady with solid tracks following one another,
until 'Hold Me Back' & '911' change up the feel of the alb.
Typical MMG-type beats, but they're the ones that made MMG1
so dope, so still no complaining and the alb still flows.
It all turns mellow again with the RnB-type joints.
'Presidential', 'Ice Cold', 'Touch N You', 'Dices Pineapples'
range from ok-ish (Touch N You) to good (Presidential) to great
(Diced Pineapples) to superb (the excellent 'Ice Cold').
And then 'Ten Jesus Pieces' drops. Fuck me runnin! That track is
so sick and one of the year's finest. Awesome joint!
The two bonus tracks from the deluxe version with Nas
and John Legend are pretty fly and finish the alb nicely.
1. Pray For Us
2. Pirates 5/5
3. 3 Kings 5/5
4. Ashamed 3.5/5
5. Maybach Music IV 4/5
6. Sixteen 3.5/5
7. Amsterdam 4/5
8. Hold Me Back 4.5/5
9. 911 4/5
10. So Sophisticated 3.5/5
11. Presidential 4/5
12. Ice Cold 5/5
13. Touch N You 3/5
14. Diced Pineapples 5/5
15. Ten Jesus Pieces 5/5
16. Triple Beam Dreams 5/5
17. Rich Forever 5/5

Overall though, this album is pretty cohesive, feels complete
and just flow through your speakers. If you're a Ross fan, i can
see this being one your favourites this year. It really is
a great album, just depends on what you like here.
For me, i was actually surprised and find myself getting more
hooked to it the more i hear it. Shit's fly basically!
Overall Score: 9/10

MMG - SELF MADE 2

MAYBACH MUSIC GROUP

SELF MADE 2

2012

Fuck, what a huge disappointment!

With Pill out the picture and adding Stalley & Omarion

instead, things were bound to stink. But I didn't imagine

it to be this bad. On top of that way too much

French Montana for my taste. That dude sucks major ass!

Regardless there are a few bright spots after a few more
attempts to try and sit through the entire album.
The first track "power circle" is a good example.
This one is actually pretty fly which would have
fit nicely on the first one. The piano play is awesome.
But then Kendrick Lamar opens his fuckin trap and
it's downhill from there. "Black Magic" is just too
much and milking the whole style, "This Thing
Of Ours" is too little and too pussy. Omarion
has lost any shred of respect he ever had here.
It just continues from there with ugly beats
that just get buried even more by ugly flows
and raps that kinda piss me off. I just could not
sit through this without cringing. 
Nipsey Hussle is another tiny bright spot, but
who cares at this point. Especially being followed
by such a turd of a track like 'I Be Puttin On'.
I mean, this is embarrassing for all cats involved.
This is what's wrong with rap today. 
All pussy and pretend-gangster with retard flows
and no musical feeling whatsoever.
Fuck this shit, seriously. One of the year's
worst along with all the other fags, Future,
Wiz Khalifa, Tyler, Schoolboy Q, French Montana,
Asap Rocky, Kendrick Lamar, etc...kill yo' self!
Overall Score: 1/10

BIG K.R.I.T. - LIVE FROM THE UNDERGROUND

BIG K.R.I.T.

LIVE FROM THE UNDERGROUND

2012

Finally, K.R.I.T.'s retail album iz here!!

1. LFU300MA (intro)
What more can you ask from an intro.
Real talk and a sick instrumental. 5/5
2. Live From The Underground
Classic Krit, though it sounds very much
like the beginning of Lions & Lambs and that
song is just far superior. A shame. 4/5
3. Cool 3 Be Southern
Not bad, not great, just good. 4/5
4. I Got This
I can dig it though it's not typical Krit...
The verses are dope, the hook not so sure. 4/5
5. Money On The Floor ft. 2 Chainz, 8Ball & MJG
Can't go wrong with Ball & G. I preferred 2 Chainz
when he was Tity Boi, but anyway, this track is
bumpin front to back. Sick shit. 5/5
6. What U Mean ft. Ludacris
Fuckin hell this track is straight murder.
Smilin from ear to ear while going beserk,
that's what it's about. Yeeeea! 5/5
7. My Sub pt. 2 ft. The jackin'
The first one is of course better, but still this
track is bumpin nonetheless. 4.5/5 
8. Don't Let Me Down
Now we're talking. Classic Krit at work though
the hook is not that appealing...who cares. 4.5/5
9. Porchlight ft. Anthony Hamilton
One of my favourites. If you're gonna have the hook
sung, you just gotta get Anthony Hamilton.
Perfect combination and a standout track. 5/5
10. Pull Up ft. Big Sant & Bun B
Dirty south swag at it's finest! 5/5
11. Yeah Dats me
Disappointed. I mean...it's not that bad but
it's just too much at times. 2/5
12. Hydroplanning ft. Devin The Dude
I get it, but it's too slow and gets tedious fast. 3/5
13. If I Fall ft. Melanie Fiona
Nice track yo, damn! Lovin the drums. 5/5
14. Rich Dad, Poor Dad
Talk about meaningful shit. Don't look for the beat
to drop and just listen and marvel. 5/5
15. Praying Man ft. BB King
Nice feature and another solid track that fits Krit's ouvre, 
but he's made similar and better before. 3.5/5
16. Live From The Underground (Reprise)
Same title but so different and so much better. 4.5/5


I kinda saw this coming. Way too good on his mixtapes
and thus the retail album falls a little short. That might be
slightly the case but still, looking at this for what it is
and disregarding the tapes, this album is great.
This is what southern rap should be. Bringing back
that good 'ol classic Goodie Mob, Dirty, Outkast etc. vibe.
If Krit made an album with all the dopest cuts of his tapes
and this album, it would be the best southern album of the
last ten years. Krit just too good and there's nothing above 
excellence, so it's easy too complain. In any regards,
Big K.R.I.T delivered and is simply the best doing it now! 
Overall Score: 9/10

MEEK MILL - DREAMCHASERS 2

MEEK MILL

DREAMCHASERS 2

2012

The wait is over! Finally Meek drops his 2nd installment 

of Dreamchasers and it doesn't disappoint at all.

Not sure yet how it compares to the first, but i gotta bump

some more to fully review this.

What i can say is "Lean Wit It" finally gives us that hardcore

thug rap feeling we so sorely missed the last couple of years

with pussies like Drake and Kid Cudi taking over the scene.

Cardiak also produced the still doper than dope

"Still Creeping" (and the rest of the alb) from Young Chris.

Look out for this one! And on top of that the official video 

for it is gangsta! I love it! Here it is:

1. Intro

Typical flow on the beat and Meek which all sound

a little too much of the same unless there's something 

in the beat or Meek's verses to give that some extra.

On the intro it's obviously not there. Solid, but nothing

noteworthy given the bangers that fill the alb later. 3.5/5

2. Ready Or Not

Bold man. Very bold to sample The Fugees. But boy

does it pay off here. The beat was done with respect

by All Star ( i like this dude) and provides some extra

and really is the eprfect backdrop for Meek who kills

the track. Sick track and a favourite! 5/5

3. Amen ft. Drake & Jeremih

Meek yes, Jeremih yes, Drake? Fuck no! And the beat

doesn't help either. Due to the big minus here (Drizzy),

it a skip for me halfway through. 2/5

4. Burn ft. Big Sean

C'mon man. Big Sean is such an idiot and ruins 

everything he fuckin touches. 

Fuck this shit... 1/5

5. A1 Everything ft. Kendrick Lamar

Seriously? After Drake & Big Sean a track with Lamar?

If i didn't know the rest of the album was tight i woulda

trashed this album with the speed of a thousand assholes. 

Beat is allright, but kinda annoying and when

Kendrick comes in i wanna stab my ears. Fuck him. 1/5

6. Use To Be

Thank god for the skip button and landing me on this

sweet track that makes me forget about all previous

decease-laced dumps. Very different but the hook, 

overall vibe and Meek going off makes this something

special. Wish the beat flipped halfway but oh well... 4/5

7. Flexing

Getting better, but pretty standard track from Meek that

doesn't offer much more. 3.5/5

8. I Get It ft. Travis Scott

Now we're talking. Although it's very apparent now

Meek has but one flow (which can get pretty dull).

But still, this track goes off also due to Travis' verse. 4/5

9. Everyday ft. Rick Ross

Vintage Maybach with the now signature hi-hats

(that are slowly getting played out i admit) and thumping bass. 

Ross is so so, but so is Meek. 3.5/5

10. Racked Up Shawty ft. Fabolous & French whateva

Same formula, doesn't provide much until you finish

the track and it's just the instrumental. Makes you go

back and listen again, but then again nothing new

thanks to all mediocre verses (the fuck Fab?) and 

fuck French Montana who sucks Drizzy dick. 3/5

11. Lean Wit It

First single and video and this one sure goes off.

Cardiak did his thing and almost got to 'Still Creeping'

heights. But Meek is no Young Chris. But still this is

a top notch track. Mean mug on ya face bitch! 5/5

12. Big Dreams

Nice switch-up from the previous track. Meek does

his thing (Wale-style though), but he pulls it off and

All Star provides here aswell. 4.5/5

13. Take U Home ft. Wale & Big Sean)

Big Sean again...fuck outta here...track overall is nice though 

but Sean ruins it once again. So so hook aswell. 2.5/5

14. The Ride

Quite annoying track. Don't know wether to enjoy this

or trash it...too close to a drake song i guess. 3/5

15. Face Down ft. Trey Songz & Wale

Not feeling the hook too but and overall its not bad. 3.5/5

16. Str8 Like That ft. 2 Chainz & Louie V

The simpleness grows on you. Not much more to it. 4/5

17. House Party (remix)

Still a bumpin track with some nice new feature verses 

like Fab's, but could've done without maybe. Still tight. 4/5

18. Real

Nice track but feels a little like filler...but it might

grow on me...not bad though. 3.5/5

19. On My Way

Sick track! Awesome beat and some great verses

from Meek. Definitely a favourite. 4.5/5

20. Outro

Forget that this is an 'outro', this is such a dope track

it shoulda had a name. Bumpin beat and melody 

and truly sick overall feeling. 5/5

In the end i think this one is below par compared to the

first Dreamchasers. That had some lesser tracks too, 

but it just went harder and more original i guess. Still

this tape is pretty solid with some dope tracks. I just hope the 

actual alb will be more like the Outro, Lean Wit It, 

Ready Or Not and On My Way and less Amen. Amen!

Overal Score: 8.5/10

BIG K.R.I.T. - 4EVA N A DAY

BIG K.R.I.T.

4EVA N A DAY

2012

The best cat in the game doing it right now drops his latest album 

(mixtape, whatever, i'm over these dudes not dropping retails)

and once again he killed it. Return Of 4Eva was the best tape

last year and looks like this one will make the top of a 

lot of people's lists once more. Dude is so talented, on the

boards and behind the mic. You gotta love him.

Will need to bump quite a few more times but i have to

say this already: "Temptation" is frickin awesome and

a real nice tribute to Memphis rap from back in the day,

at least that's what i'm getting from the beat. Dope!

Full Review Coming Soon...

YO GOTTI - LIVE FROM THE KITCHEN

YO GOTTI

LIVE FROM THE KITCHEN

2012

After a long ass wait and way too many mixtapes

Yo Gotti finally drops his latest effort!

Need to bump more but so far i have to say: 
the first 8 tracks are straight crack! Holy smokes
this is dope...i love yo gotti!!

I must say this aswell though:

"Go Girl" is ATROCIOUS! This will be worst track

of 2012 for a looong time. Can't believe Big K.R.I.T.

had anything to do with it. Fuckin hell...
and what's with only 11 tracks?!? Fuck man...


1. Testimony

First track sets off the rest of the alb perfect.

Hard beat with Yo Gotti flowin his ass off.

I love his delivery. Everything is grand. 4.5/5

2. Harder ft. Rick Ross

Mean mug om my face when this drops. Phat ass

beat and both Rozay and Gotti go off. 5/5

3. Killa

Special vibe all over this with the background

chants and that eerie hook, but i likes it. But

man Yo Gotti does his thing...he could go on

forever and never sound like he's run out. 4.5/5

4. Red White And Blue ft. Jadakiss

What a track! Dope beat and sick verses. 

And when is Jadakiss going to make an album with

dirty south beats? He shines on every single one

he is on ever since his feature on Lil Jon's alb. 5/5

5. Single

Wasn't feeling the hook like that, maybe still am not, 

but the beat and the verses make up for it. 4/5

6. Second Chance

Similar to the previous track but a better hook and

better verses. Love the start of the first one. 4.5/5

7. Cases ft 2Chainz

I dunno about this techno-2-unlimited-sounding

synth throughout the song, but besides that this

track is bumpin like a mufucka. 2Chainz (shoulda

stayed Titi Boi and neva changed his name) goes

off (though he's not a the same level as he was

with Playaz Circle). Gotti is Gotti. 4/5

8. Letter

Favourite track hands down and will most def 

make a top 10 list at the end of the year (already).

Simply amazing track, everything is top notch. 5/5

9. Go Girl

Like i said, horrible to the worst degree. Fuck Wiz

Khalifa and fuck Big Sean. Shame on Gotti, Wale

and especially Big K.R.I.T. 0/5

10. We Can Get It On

They had to put a bitch song on the album. 

Granted, its pretty cool. Gotti pulls it off and the

chick on the hook sounds like she suppose to. 

The misses was hummin along, so i guess it does

the job for it's demographic. 4/5

11. 5 Star (Remix)

Why put this "old" song on the album 

(lemme guess, uhum, Nicki Fuckin Minaj) and not Mirrors?

Anyway, this was a dope track when it dropped and it still is. 

Minaj was still a bad bitch back then.

Now she far gone and plain trash. Oh well. This

track still that crack. 4/5

Overall, this album is worthy in the end, but given the 

long wait, the amount of tracks (seriously pisses me off) 

and comparison with his previous

flawless album "Back 2 Da Basics (man, that album 

was fuckin great!) it does fall short. "Letter" alone though, 

made me pre-order this, can't front. Simply put, it is a solid 

Yo Gotti release but i did expect a whole lot more 

(even though Gotti himself didn't disappoint at all).

Overall Score: 8.5/10

YOUNG JEEZY - TM:103 HUSTLERZ AMBITION

YOUNG JEEZY

TM:103 HUSTLERZ AMBITION

2011

1. Waiting

This is sick...intro/track, whatever it is, it is awesome!

From the slowed down hook to those dope verses 

when that sick beat drops...love it! 5/5

2. What I Do

Took a few listens to realize this track goes truly hard.

Not just the beat, but jeezy goes off. Nice lyrics. 4.5/5

3. OJ ft. Fabolous & Jadakiss 

One of my favourites. The beat is crazy with great

samples and sounds. Both Fab and Jada kill it. 5/5

4. Nothing

This knocks. Great production and killer verses. 5/5

5. Way Too Gone ft. Future

At first it seems too slow and not going anywhere, but

after a few listens this offers a truly nice listen. Not a

fan of Future's verse. Shoulda been a bigger artist. 4/5

6. Supafreak ft. 2 Chainz 

Even though it features 2 Chainz, it's just not good

enough and one of my least favourite tracks. 2.5/5

7. All We Do

Not bad at all, but the hook is stupid and this is more

a filler track since it doesn't provide much. 3/5

8. Leave You Alone

A little soft but Jeezy has had similar tracks on his

previous albs, and he can pull it off. Ne-Yo is allright.

Have to be in a certain mood to likes this. 4/5

9. Everythang

Ah man, this is crack. Best hook on the album. 5/5

10. Trapped ft. Jill Scott

Dismissed this at first, but man, this is a nice joint.

Jill Scott actually contributes and i'm gettin more

into the beat and whole vibe. Listen truly. 4/5

11. F.AM.E. ft T.I.

Was worried this was going to be too radio-friendly

but nah, it's sweet. And T.I. kills it with his verse. 5/5

12. I Do ft. Jay-Z & Andre 3000

Really? How can you have jigga and 3 stacks featured

and still have a shitty song. It's way too dumb a hook and

honestly, both Jay-Z and Andre suck bad on top. 2/5

13. Higher Learning ft. Snoop Dogg & Devin The Dude

So does not belong here, but it's fly as fuck. 4/5

14. This Ones For You ft. Trick Daddy 

I love this one and sounds like classic Trick Daddy

material from back in the day. Again, i love it. 5/5

15. .38 ft. Freddie Gibbs

Now this is the one. Favourite track of the alb and best

beat hands down. Fuck me runnin! On blast! 5/5

16. Ballin ft. Lil Wayne

Despite having Lil Gayne on here (when i first had

a look at the tracklist i was actually praying, don't

have that bitch featured...but unfortunately...). Anyway,

he is actually not bad here and the beat and gizzle

make this track killer. Do have to deduct a point. 4.5/5

17. Lose My Mind ft. Plies

Growing on me every time but not quite on par with the 

rest of the album. But getting there. 3.5/5

18. Never Be The Same

Last track. This shoulda been big, Like TM101 big.

It's close but no cigar for me. Still, a sick track. 4/5

Having listened to Jeezy's previous albums aswell,

 it's obvious he delivers with each alb and really stays 

on the same level since he first came out with 101.

Still, that album is up there and 103 doesn't

really live up to it, but it comes close. It is however

better than his other 2 releases. Again, they're all pretty

close together with equal amount of 5/5 tracks:

one thing i love about Young Jeezy, is his consistency. 

All in all, this album delivers and is a must buy 

for any jeezy or dirty south fan. I'm ordering mine!

Overall Score: 9/10

YELAWOLF - RADIOACTIVE

YELAWOLF

RADIOACTIVE

2011

1. Radioactive Introduction

Channeling Andre 3000 on a futuristic simple

beat like this works pretty well for Yelawolf.

Nice beginning to the album. 4/5

2. Get Away ft. Shawty Fatt & Mystikal

Nice chill beat with nice verses from all, but

for me Mystikal makes me rate this even higher.

Awesome feature. Great track overall. 4.5/5

3. Lets Roll ft. Kid Rock

Much better than the track title and feature

suggest. Yela could've maybe come stronger

on the verses but i'm not complaining. 4.5/5

4. Hard White ft. Lil Jon

At first glance this seems like such an "off" track,

but man this goes hard and Yela spits some 

dope shit and the beat is just bananas. 5/5

5. Growin Up In the Gutter ft. Ritz

Easy to dismiss, but this is a very unique

track that provides an interesting mood. 

Being able to flow on a dumbed-down-ugly beat

like this and lift it to something amazing

is top in my book and cudos to the creativity. 4.5/5

6. Throw It Up ft. Gangsta Boo & Eminem

As far as female emcee's go, there's only a handful

that truly deliver. Gangsta Boo is one of em and one

of my favourites. This track for me is crack thanks to

her feature, the beat, a crazy good Yelawolf and

I guess Eminem? I think he could've done better

but still killed it, regardless of the lyrics. 5/5

7. Good Girl ft. Poo Bear

Despite it being a song for the females, this is

my 2nd favourite track. Very nice laidback beat

and Yela brings it with his verses. Chilll. 5/5

8. Made In The U.S.A ft. Priscilla Renea

First up, thank you Yela for not having that bitch

Rihanna doing the hook. Thank god!

Anyway, as poppy as it is, this is a dope song.

Love the melody in the hook and verses and 

Yela's verses are nothin but fire. Love it.

Now let's hope this doesn't become a single

and it gets overplayed and murdered. 5/5

9. Animal ft. Fefe Dobson

Starts of real nice but than Fefe opens her mouth

and sings a god-aweful hook...yikes...i'm skipping

everytime at this point. Which is a shame cuz the 

verses and beat are actually not bad at all. 2/5

10. The Hardest Love Song In The World

Tight guitar-laced beat with great verses and a

nice lil hook. Nothing that stands out though. 4/5

11. Write Your Name ft. Mona Mona

Now this is more like it and more on Yela's

wavelenghts. Mona Mona is nice too. 4.5/5

12. Everything I Love The Most

Another favourite cut...love the guitar and Yela's

hook is pretty fly and hella catchy. 5/5

13. Radio

Ok, it took some time and though it has grown

on me a little thanks to the verses from Yela, 

the hook still kills this song. So soft man. 3/5

14. Slumerican Shitizen ft. Killer Mike

Another ugly beat that actually works and ends up

being dope, especially with Killer Mike's verse. 4.5/5 

15. The Last Song

I love it when an album ends with a dope track as is

the case here. Perfect ending and just 3:42 minutes

away from the repeat button. 4.5/5

I have a feeling this album is going to become only

stronger in time. For now as a whole it does come

off as pretty soft knowing who Yelwolf is and having

listened to Trunk Muzik on repeat back when...

With that said, I am glad he didn't go completely commercial. 

The album still has that Yelawolf

signature all over it. Just wish it was more dirty south

sounding (eg. Daddy's Lambo), but again...

No complaints cuz Yela pulled it all off. Props

Overall Score: 9/10

ACE HOOD - BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS

ACE HOOD

BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS
2011

1.  King Of The Streets (Feat. T-Pain)
Starts off like any other T-Pain featured track
but when Ace comes in, it knocks. Initially rated
higher, but this one does wear off...still fire 4/5 
2.  Go N Get It
Harda than a mu'fucka...how i like it....Ace goes off.
Simple but effective 4.5/5
3.  Errythang (Feat. Yo Gotti)
More of the grimey feel and Yo Gotti is a nice addition.
The production is nice but lacks in the sweet spots 4/5
4.  Hustle Hard
Very similar to Go N Get It, but goes even harder.
The chorus is sick. Hustle hard and bump it hard 5/5

5.  Body 2 Body (Feat. Chris Brown)
Not feeling this. As soon as the beat starts you
know it's gonna be doo doo. Kinda bitch made overall. 2/5
6.  Memory Lane (Feat. Kevin Cossum)
Great sample taking you back. Ace flows nicely over it.
Not feeling the hook nor the dude though. 
Too much Kid Cudi-ish whom I loath. 
Overall doable thanks to Ace's zest. 3.5/5
7.  Letter To My Exs
This is that crack fo real. Awesome verses and the beat
makes it even better. Ace did this one. 5/5
8.  Beautiful (Feat. Kevin Cossum)
A better effort from Kevin Cossum though still
should've used maybe Jeremih on the hook. Not bad. 4/5
9.  Lord Knows
Mellow track and nicely produced but besides Ace
laying it down it doesn't offer much more. 3/5
10. Bitter World
2nd Least favourite track of the alb. Ace flows
like every new young rapper out there and it
shits me. The beat is nice though. 2.5/5
11. Spoke To My Momma
I love this one. Everything just works. Beat is chill,
Ace is hood and the whole song is crack. 5/5
12. Hustle Hard (Remix) (Feat. Rick Ross And Lil Wayne)
Even though it's the same, Ross and even Lil Wayne add to
the original. This is what Wayne should've been on C4. 5/5

REVIEW

I never thought Ace Hood could come out with this. 
I admit the album migth wear of after a while (took time to review)
but the stand-out tracks still make you wanna come back
for anotha listen. I sure have bumped the hell out of it and
will definitely cop this. And don't judge a book by it's cover
(the cover is very questionable right?)
Overall Score: 8.5/10
