EP Review-IVRY by 100S
EP Review-IVRY by 100S by Dan-O Pimp rap is a hard thing to explain support of. All you can say is that when it works its amazing. The job of a pimp is to make you choose his or her services, so a great pimp rap musical experience should be just as engaging; something that…

Song Review-Bompton by YG produced by DJ Mustard
Song Review-Bompton by YG produced by DJ Mustard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-RIYI3z2xs by Dan-O This sounds worse than it is but a lot of music people simply thought of YG as an appendage of DJ Mustard. He can organize the Mustard sound with his energy and flow but without it he’s ok at best. This all changed with…

Mixtape Review-By Any Means by Kevin Gates
Mixtape Review-By Any Means by Kevin Gates by Dan-O A cynical person would probably say that Kevin Gates is a product of the modern rap landscape. A lot of his songs have to do with longing for female companionship or trapping and the melody in everything he says might be considered a post-Juvenile trait. As…

Song of the Year-Too Ill For The Law by Lakutis produced by HGHWND
Song of the Year-Too Ill For The Law by Lakutis produced by HGHWND by Dan-O One of the things I hoped to achieve with this site was NOT writing about Das Racist or anyone affiliated with it. The think piece generating insincere crew of moderately talented mc’s captured the imagination of people I am forced…

Mixtape Review-Good Blood by Niko Is
Mixtape Review-Good Blood by Niko Is by Dan-O It wasn’t until yesterday that I realized I had been listening to Niko Is new mixtape Good Blood every day since it came out. As good as Niko Is at creating arresting imagery (example) “Eating blowfish sushi with Japanese golfers (Green Tomato Coupe)” this is…

Song of the year-Hell Of A Night by Schoolboy Q produced by DJ Dahi
Song of the year-Hell Of A Night by Schoolboy Q produced by DJ Dahi by Dan-O Every important boxer, important enough to have every other boxer wanting to fight them, had someone they just flat out didn’t want to fight. Sugar Ray Robinson ended his career with one hundred and seventy three wins but he…

Mixtape Review-The Drive In Theatre by Curren$y
Mixtape Review-The Drive In Theatre by Curren$y by Dan-O After reviewing music from the New Orleans juggernaut Curren$y for years I’ve become guilty of a cardinal musical sin. I realized after my second listening of his new mixtape The Drive In Theatre that he had spoiled me. The run of projects he has had in…

Song Review-Dick Walk by DPGC
Song Review-Dick Walk by DPGC by Dan-O Why would grown men make a song called Dick Walk? Why would another grown man write about it? Life is full of interesting questions. Honestly, I was chomping at the bit to write about Snoop Dogg who post-Snoop Lion has been making some very interesting music. He teamed…

Mixtape Review-Young Jefe by Shy Glizzy
Mixtape Review-Young Jefe by Shy Glizzy by Dan-O A weird voice cuts two ways; one mans innovation in intonation is another’s fingernails down the chalkboard. I have to warn you about this because Glizzy has a whine flow all his own that might shut you down before you even get the chance to think about…

Song Review-Mandela by Cyhi The Prynce produced by Sekou Muhammed & TEC Beatz
Song Review-Mandela by Cyhi The Prynce produced by Sekou Muhammed & TEC Beatz by Dan-O Cyhi The Prynce is the kind of talent that can be painful. The wit that staggers with lines like “and I don’t need a beat cause I can easily speak to these N’s through the frequencies…” can’t help but get…
