As we previously reported, "Volume 2" is labeled a mixtape but it’s actually a street album. Every song comes with hook and original beat, and most of the production was handled by Dirty Birdy & Dr. Stank. Birdy laced some serious heaters on this and rapidly developed his production skills. He even handled most of the production on his upcoming "Volume 3" mixtape (with some exceptions). A lot of the tracks on "Volume 2" give the mixtape a soulful feel as they’re sample based for the most part, and therefore songs that couldn’t be cleared for the album.
With Birdy being one of the many artists that was first showcased by us, we feel that he’s definitely up there with the greats of the rap game. The overall diversity of the mixtape proves that Dirty Birdy is so much more than a rapper, he’s an entertainer. With his ability to deliver sick flows packed with a lot of humor, this mixtape makes it stand out from most of the mixtapes that hit the streets. He’s showing off his skills in a number of different styles, like on "Take My Life Away", where Birdy utilized the talents of Dr. Stank on a guest verse. Songs like "Where We From (Money Gone)" give the mixtape a sense of realism, where you have Birdy and Dr. Stank teaming up again to exchange I.E. street tales. And on "Gigante" Dirty Birdy took the meaning of diversity a step further, as he’s spitting a couple bars in Spanish!
As always, Dubcnn has them exclusive tracks, so peep the shit below to get a taste of what you can expect on the mixtape. These are "Ain’t My Fault" produced by Crackajack, "Take My Life Away" produced by Dirty Birdy where Dr. Stank joins Bird to rip up the track like only they know how. The last song is "Hip Hop" produced by Crackajack where Bird breaks down Hip Hop history and how it all started for him.
