quik did a great job on production here!!
Juronimo:
1. Intro
2. Why U bullshittin’? "She used to work down at the sperm bank but got fired from drinking on the job"..."It's estimated that 9 out of 10 men don't check they spouse but Sugafree would tell your pretty ass to get the fuck out". So many classic Sugafree lines in this song. Great way to start off an album. 4.5/5
3. I’d rather give you my bitch More great one liners. Great song. 4.5/5
4. Doe doe and a skunk It's an alright track, not as much energy as the other tracks. 3.5/5
5. Don’t no suckaz live here Nice melodic beat from quik here. 4/5
6. Tip toe The meat of the album starts here. Quik's beat is one of the best beats he's ever done. It's multilayered with paino chords, electric guitars, synths, a thick baseline, nice crisp live sounding drums. This is a hiphop musical masterpiece. 5/5
7. I wanna go home (The county jail song) I can't describe how dope this shit is. Just real. Sugafree is beating on the table like he does in the Visualism dvd and just tells a story rapid fire about the county jail. His storytelling skills are mesmirizing. 5/5
8. If U stay ready Another masterpiece, as Playa Hamm and Suga Free go back and forth. They definitely have chemistry. My favorite part of the track is the guitar riff by Robert Bacon at the end of the track. Robert Bacon and G1 also co-produce this track along with DJ Quik. 5/5
9. Fly fo life More Suga Free one liners. 3.5/5
10. On my way Nice r&b style track. I like the flute at the beginning. 4/5
11. Secrets The baseline just drives this track. Suga Free gets down on this track and even drops a message. 4.5/5
12. Table interlude…insert
13. Dip da Again Suga Free shares his storytelling ability with plenty of emotion thrown behind it. He explores his inner demons on this track as the listener finds out how he winds up being a pimp.
14. Tip toe (reprise) All I can say is :o this instrumental is :o :o :o :o Robert Bacon's guitar solo is :o :o :o . This is the same beat as Tip Toe but just the instrumental with even more elements added to it. This is like the hiphop version of John Coltrane's ascension. I can picture a whole p-funk band playing this. 1,000,000,000/5
Overall: 4.5 mics
Machiavelli:
This is one of the best produced albums of all time..
