Shyne-Gangland mixtape review
Shyne-Gangland mixtape review by Dan-O When Shyne made it out of his legal trouble the people who were around for his initial run were very hopeful. He had carved out a niche whispering truly elaborate mob stories that Biggie would have been proud of over exciting Bad Boy production. Everyone who looked forward to his music…

Songs of the Year-Jojo’s Chillin’ by Killer Mike
Killer Mike-JoJo’s Chillin by Dan-O Part way through Killer Mikes new album R.A.P. Music you’re forced to accept his alliance with El-P resulting in a 2012 Public Enemy with songs that slam as much in bass and treble as they do verbal delivery. JoJo’s Chillin moves in that pace but doesn’t carry the same necessity…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9c30QP9XzM Gucci Mane featuring Waka-Walking Lick by Dan-O Of all the most hated current rappers: Waka, Soulja Boy, Hurricane Chris (JUST KIDDING DO YOU EVEN REMEMBER HIM?) Ice Cream face is probably the most talented. Gucci can sit back and let the DJ have the first 30 seconds to say terribly annoying things, he’s that…

Museum mixtape review
Rashad-Museum review by Dan-O Most of the listeners who played Lincoln Way Nights: Intelligent Trunk Music in their vehicle found it hard to hate. It was a marriage that felt like it should last forever, the everyman insight raps of the likeable Stalley over the dusty thump of Rashad production. The two faded into each…

Lloyd Banks-V6:The Gift review
V6:The Gift mixtape review The problem with Lloyd Banks mixtapes is not simply a problem of misogyny. Lloyd Banks might have a very balanced and favorable view of the opposite sex. He certainly does not have one in regards to groupies. If you listen to early Banks verses on G-Unit tracks they were winks and…
