Mixtape Review-New Wave by Ibn Inglor
Mixtape Review-New Wave by Ibn Inglor by Dan-O I’m old enough that if I told you I’ve only listened to hip hop I’d have to be lying. I grew into it and found that pathway in what my young mind viewed as the exhilarating expression of emotion. I found a direct link from Johnny Rotten…

Song Review-Who Got That Gas? By DB the General
Song Review-Who Got That Gas? By DB the General by Dan-O This year DB the General has gone Tasmanian Devil on every track he’s stepped on. In the wake of his wild voice alterations and whirling dervish of threats he leaves tracks devastated. After dropping a twenty five track mixtape earlier this year called I…

Mixtape Review-Come As You Are by Audio Push
Mixtape Review-Come As You Are by Audio Push by Dan-O The title track on Come As You Are is the first song after the intro and has far less to do with the Nirvana song as it does The Pharcyde. It acts as a microcosm of the tracks that come after it. Nostalgia is a…

Song Review-Gone For A Minute by Humbo County
Song Review-Gone For A Minute by Humbo County by Dan-O This is the last song on a mixtape called Urple Vapes and it stands as a pretty sharp contrast to the rest of the music before it. Humbo County bounces from track to track throughout the material sounding like Weezy back when he was a…

I’ll be honest, the music is so dope that the concept escapes me. DJ…

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.

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…
