Tela – Piece of Mind
1. Intro…Laidback intro with additional help from an electric guitar. Very good opener to the album. 4/5
2. Twisted…Contains another electric guitar loop accompanied with a tight ass beat. Tela flows well. Nice distorted voice on chorus. 5/5
3. Tired of ballin’…Smooth production and a great hook. 4.5/5
4. Strange…Evil sounding beat. Featuring Mr. Mike and Crime Boss. 4/5
5. Success…Quality production with the help of a slight tambourine tap. Tela puts down a hellafied flow. Bomb ass chorus. 4/5
6. Let it rain…Amazing production with three great verses by Tela. 4/5
7. Sho nuff…A club song featuring Eightball & MJG. Catchy hook. 4/5
8. Time…Very slow beat and a decent flow. 3.5/5
9. Blackhaven…Interlude. I wouldn’t normally rate this, but it’s over 4 minutes long and it’s terrible. 0/5
10. Suave House…Nice chorus, good loop. 3.5/5
11. Interlude cell call
12. U can’t tell…Song warning to watch for scandalous women. Tight ass guitar loop, dope chorus. 4/5
13. All about the money…interlude
14. Survival…Production is different from anything else on the album, but it sounds good here. 3.5/5
15. Piece of mind…The title track should have been a lot better than this. Production is barely average, but the lyrics are decent. 3/5
OVERALL…7/10
If the momentum would have continued through the second half of the album as it did for the first half, it would really be a hot ass CD. It still is, but the second half falters in comparison to the first 7 tracks. Good production and tight rhymes.
