ALBUM REVIEW: Fred J. Riley “Awkward Awesome”
March 28, 2012 |
|
|
|
||||
|
Fred J. Riley took a gamble with this one. Making music that is clearly inspired by another form of media, whether it be a film, video game, or comic, sometimes can land you in a world of trouble. Not only will you be judged when it comes to your music, but you add an extra layer of scrutiny because people expect you to represent the property that you link your music with. If acheived, it is a great thing, and automatically makes you cooler than most. If you fail, you are looked at as exactly that, because no one will have sympathy for someone who was confident enough to take on a beloved property. Being that Scott Pilgrim (the film that this EP is inspired by) is one of my favorite films, Riley was put through the ringer by me. |

Cracka Lack (funny name haha) does a pretty decent job over this beat, but I’m definitely gonna need him to have more presence in front of the camera. |

Jay Howden makes a track about perseverance, which is a great topic for him. I hope he sticks with it, cuz the kid is good. |

NEW VIDEO: Mike Stud “Is It Worth It?”

If you aren’t feelin Mike Stud, you’re DEAD. Geez this guy has something…..i don’t know….just something. If you asked me if he was ready for the superstardom he deserves, I would reply “yesterday”. This song is ill, and you can’t lie and say that you don’t respect the work he puts in for his passion. He has my respect, and more importantly, my ear. |

Um. This guy is SERIOUS. PropaneLv caught my eye a few weeks ago, and he continues to impress. He has that emo-ish accesible Drake feel, but without coming off like a skirt-wearer. It’s a beautiful thing I tell ya. The vid is dope. The black and white visuals serve the lyrics well. I love it. |

I’m not quite sure to make of this video. Are these separate rappers? Part of a crew? A Team? I’m confused. And I haven’t even started the video. Anyway check out TE of ADD. (I think). |

MIXTAPE REVIEW: Caddy Da Don “Cut The Check”
March 27, 2012 |
|
|
|

|
I had never heard a word from Caddy Da Don’s mouth before this review. His hyped up mixtape promo made me smirk before I even pressed play. Usually, when someone is overly cocky, the product doesn’t match up to the street talk. Caddy is a weird case. He’s not bad, but I don’t think he’s as good as he thinks he is….yet. |

NEW MUSIC: Spid-R ft. Rank Jenson “Sanatize Em”

Get out your Clorox wipes. Spid-R is wiping the game down apparently. Take a listen and see if the flow is as clean as he says it is.
