Reviews By Timmay: Young Genocide – Commander in Chief

Today’s write up is over Young Genocide’s – ‘Commander and Chief’ project. The short version of the review goes like this. Young Genocide is good at what he does. He has a head full of punch lines and metaphors that he uses to glide over his tracks…

Reviews By Timmay: Rob Jay – Video Rob is Dead

Today’s review is going to be about Rob Jay’s – Video Rob is dead. When I first came across this cd, the first thing I thought about was “Who is video Rob?” Rob Jay has a very clear and concise delivery. He wants you to understand what he’s talking about when he’s rapping…

Reviews By Timmay: London Wilson – Bad Habits 2

This weeks review is over London Wilson’s Bad Habits 2. First thing that strikes me is that London has an awesome rap name and sounds like he’s not from Houston. I’m not talkin about how rappers always say, “I don’t rap like anyone from Houston.” I’m talkin about this dude’s accent, when he’s talking, doesn’t sound like he’s from Houston.

Reviews By Timmay: Mr. Luke – It’s My Turn

Today’s review is going to be on Mr. Luke’s latest release called “It’s My Turn”. The project immediately dives into an intro that proves two points. He’s serious about the stuff he says. And he’s a grown ass man.

Reviews By Timmay: Mike Ro – Dirty Jobs

This week’s review is on Mike Ro’s – Dirty Jobs. The project’s intro opens beautifully as Mike is heard to be “working late”, due to rappers wearing tight jeans and doing too much dancing.

Reviews By Timmay: Young Sensation – C.H.I.L.L.

The overall feel of Young Sensation’s latest project, C.H.I.L.L., has a very relative title. The beats that were chosen have a very impressive vibe with them that forces the listener to sit back and enjoy. This is not party music….it’s chillin music.

[Review] D. Julien – Ready For Tomorrow

This is my first official review or breakdown, whatever you want to call it…just know I’m doing this because the project is that inspiring. D. Julien has heavy production from Buzz, King I Divine, Kyle Justice, Clyde Strokes, Selasse, Chris Lewis, Jimba Frosty & Bahama Beats with two features from Young Scolla & Tolu. When D. says this project is “200% me”, I find it to be an understatement. The project themes around progression to tomorrow as he shares real experiences, memories, relationships, etc… D. Julien gets very personal on this project, with every track serving a different purpose/message. I’m not going to rate this, because it is too great for any rating… I’m just breaking down the tracks to share it with you in efforts that you download/listen, if you haven’t already.
