Omar Cruz - "Cruzifixion" Mixtape Review (Scratch Magazine)

Omar Cruz Gets "Hood" Rating In Scratch Magazine - October 19, 2006 By : Rud



The talent formally known as Blunts LLA, Omar Cruz, has been riding a wave of success all year culminating in a 50/50 deal with Interscope/Geffen for the BYI Entertainment label. Since releasing his "Blow" mixtape for free download on dubcnn, he then created and put out the smash hit street album/mixtape "The Cruzifixion" which was the final step to impressing music mogul Jimmy Iovine.

We will, as we have since 2004, be keeping you up to date with the latest from Omar Cruz and BYI Entertianment, including exclusive news and audio.

As such we are pleased to reveal that in the latest edition of one of dubcnn's favourite print media publications Scratch Magazine [shout to all the staff over there] they gave "The Cruzifixion" release a Hood (being dubbed Barrio, the spanish translation of Hood) rating, which is the highest rate they give to CDs. You can check that review below in an exlcusive scan.

That's good to hear! The Cruzifixion is indeed a solid mixtape - good lyrics from Omar and Rome came with some tight beats. I especially like how they've managed to come with that latin sound...

Props on the scan!

What will be the name of his album?

I don't think there's a name for it yet.

[jointz]

Can dubcnn get a exclusive interview with him and ask him was up with the album? What youll think?

[CRAFTY]

^^^^Personally, I think it's a bit too early to start hyping up the album already. It's been only 2 months since we last had some interviews with Omar Cruz (Westcoastrydaz.com and another website) and in those interviews it was mostly some background info on Omar.
I'd say an interview with O Dot somewhere in December/January would be nice.

I know for a fact that he's been recording in The Hit Factory in Miami with Cool & Dre in September btw
