Song review-Fruit Snacks & Cups of Patron by Kyle produced by Beni Haze
Song review-Fruit Snacks & Cups of Patron by Kyle produced by Beni Haze by Dan-O The reason to like this song and any others off of Kyle’s new mixtape Beautiful Loser is that stupidness is valuable. I totally believe in stupidness, I believe that people who never act stupid are dangerous and you shouldn’t be…

Mixtape Review-King Chip-44108
Mixtape Review-King Chip-44108 by Dan-O Who is King Chip? He’s the sound coming through the weed smoke in fleets of Fleetwoods, the head nodding stimuli in clusters of Caddy’s all throughout the Midwest. Before his new mixtape 44108 came out I felt like it was going to be important. I was nervous. Chip is not…

Song Review-America’s Nightmare by SL Jones featuring Killer Mike and Kevin Gates produced by Metro Boomin
Song Review-America’s Nightmare by SL Jones featuring Killer Mike and Kevin Gates produced by Metro Boomin by Dan-O Epic is the one word for this track. It’s produced by Metro Boomin who along with Zaytoven and a few others have defined the 2013 trap sound. The phrasing description on Metro Boomin is that he took…

Mixtape Review-Bo Deal-Thug Education 101
Mixtape Review-Bo Deal-Thug Education 101 by Dan-O The seismic split between the Gucci Mane and Waka Flocka Flame sides of Brick Squad might not seem like the splintering of Genghis Khan’s empire after his death (It really shouldn’t) but it does mark a profound chaotic time for the participants and fans. Each and every member…

Mixtape Review-HBK Gang-Gang Forever
Mixtape Review-HBK Gang-Gang Forever by Dan-O I can think of a lot of things the HBK Gang compilation isn’t. It’s not a taut concept record, something that feels like an album given for free. At the same time it’s certainly not a lazy collection of freestyles. The only thing I can think to compare it…

Song Review-Criket by Couleen Lagon
Song Review-Criket by Couleen Lagon by Dan-O While following all things DJ Burn One I stumbled upon a great song from Scotty’s mixtape (https://freemusicempire.com/2013/05/08/song-of-the-year-ga-dialectfeat-couleen-lagon-produced-by-dj-burn-one-and-cy-fyre/) made impressive partially by a man with a very unique voice that did the chorus. Most times you hear a genuinely bluesy voice on a rap song it’s a sample but…

Mixtape Review-Stalley-Honest Cowboy
Mixtape Review-Stalley-Honest Cowboy by Dan-O Picture rap music as a classroom containing all the personalities we are familiar with. The pretty boy who writes poetry in his free time, the goon who picks a fight every few days just to feel healthy, the smart kid everyone copies off of, the trashy chick the guys pretend…
