nothing special.. i liked that track with Ross
-
LOL nothing special?
This is one of the best mixtapes to drop in the last two years, do not sleep on this one.
-
mixtape of the year so far, every track bumps
-
1. Intro - N/A
2. My God - 5/5. We've all heard it by now and it's unreal.
3. I Still Wanna - 5/5. OH MY GOD. This beat is CRAZY! And Pusha kills it. It's the perfect beat for this record. Very cinematic. BIG sounding. Ross fits it perfectly too. Ab Liva is dope on here too.
4. Money on my Mind (freestyle) - 4/5. I'm not big on freestyles (raps over beats I've already heard). Pusha does rip this though!
5. Feeling Myself - 3.5/5 More mainstream. KC always does good club/pop hooks. Clipse always had records sound like this so I ain't trippin. Not half bad,
6. Blow (Funk Flex freestyle) - 4.5/5. This is pretty tight. His lines are crazy cold in the first few lines. Very good freestyle.
7. Cook it Down (freestyle) - 3.5/5. Not bad. Pretty solid verses again but I don't wanna hear Pusha T over Drake lol. Lol at "mouth was like piranha."
8. Open Your Eyes - 4/5. Cool soulful beat. Pusha goes hard as usual. Good song.
9. Can I Live? (freestyle). 4.5/5. Pusha really rips this, wow.
10. Raid - 3.75/5. Interesting collabo. Beat is pretty cool. Pusha's verse is solid. Pharrell's hook is OK. 50 came nice and grimey. Decent song, not album worthy which is good.
11. Touch It - 3.5/5. Haaaaaa. Straight comedy. Beat and vocal effect is cool. Kanye with a few vocals on the hook. Again, decent cut, mixtape material.
12. Speakers Going Hammer (freestyle). 3/5. Doesn't really do too much for me. It's straight.
13. Alone In Vegas (Outro) - 5/5. Very nice beat. Pusha really spitting on this. This is a Pusha T classic.
It's a mixtape for real. You know it's real solid and has some dope ass cuts. But at the same time, it's a tease. Pusha ain't gonna give u his best on a mixtape. It's a nice little appetizer to what I'm sure will be a dope ass solo album which I hope we see released this year.

Downloading now. Fuckin hype.

I Still Wanna sounds like a rough version of what I always imagined the Detox sound to be or that "GAME CHANGING" sound with orchestration. Very powerful. Too bad the mixing isn't great.

I can't believe more people are not talking about this here

very solid mixape, but REAL overhyped by other rap websites such as 2dopeboyz

Clipse have always been extremely critically acclaimed. So the hype by the major bloggers is no surprise.

it's decent but honestly was under impression it was all original production

Ya that's the biggest letdown. Why it's more of an appetizer IMO.
Honestly though, we've been spoiled in the last few years with mixtapes featuring 100% original production. This is a real mixtape right here. A mixture of originals/freestyles.
-
That's just how the game changed and I think it's for the best though at times it's an issue.
It can suck but if no one believes you in you then what else are you going to do?
Take Drake, if someone would have backed him sooner his debut would have been So Far Gone instead it was given away for free. Sad story because he should've caked off that.
Charles Hamilton on the other hand wouldn't have been able to be heard without the internet.
Internet allowed Slaughterhouse.
Anyways, I appreciate free material and also remind myself it's FREE so take it with a grain of salt.

Original tracks are pure quality but the freestyles really bring the tape down.

For real. Are these album throw aways or did he make them specifically for the tape? Looking forward to his debut
-
shit is pretty good. open your eyes is my fav but alone in vegas outro comes close to it. some tracks may grow in time.
but mixtape of the year? nah that title still belongs to willie the kid :eh:
-
Vegas outro is fucking crazy. Period.
Rest is okay, I hope he gets some production like this on his solo album. Kanye and P can make some gangster beats if they want to
-

Indeed.
So-so beat selections for the freestyles.. looking forward to a proper Pusha solo album though.
