(http://cdbaby.name/e/r/eroticd.jpg)
originally, this was supposed to be a hardcore album (according to Erotic).
then Erotic decided to take a different direction.
a couple of months ago i already had the opportunity to preview a few tracks:
Checked them quick;
Play with them;
Whatīs up with this track :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
His flow on this is ehhhhh :-X :-X :-X
The beat is also a little corny :-X
Iīm sure Luna will love this one though ;)
1/5
a little corny? :laugh: ;)
Mr.Murderer;
Heavy guitars,some gangster shit.
The beat us tight too,a mix between "Natural Born Killaz" and "Ski & Dre"..... but not as good. :P :laugh:
3/5
do you think it's a bit repititive too?
Wait a minute;
Dope beat,love the synth.... the hook is eehhhh :P
So a new hook,get some other rappers featured... this one might work :P
But right now itīs just a dope beat and synth with subpar vocals and a wak hook. :P
2.5/5
you're being way too kind :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: ;)
My girl;
Dope beat,the hook works.... the lyrics fit the track,but again as a rapper Erotic comes short.
So he might as get another rapper to perform his lyrics. :P ;) :laugh:
Another one Iīm sure Luna will like ;)
3/5
i see your point.
by the way, when i look at the info of each track on E's myspace i think that all 6 tracks are leftovers ;)
ok,thanx for the info ;)
...and hopefully the tracks on his albums is a little better because honestly the tracks was average (pluss - minus ;))
yeah; the fact that those tracks were all once considered to be on the album leads me to the conclusion that E has no proper direction for the album :-\
when looking back now,after having listened to the album a couple of times, it's safe to say that the final result is not even nearly as bad as i first predicted.
we still got our fair share of hardcore stuff: Anatomyovamurder, Mr. Murderer, b4 i'm out, Serial Killer, Mindovalunatic, G-None Rilla, Live By The Gun, U Need Dat, Payback.
and even some of the "lighter" songs are on point: Black With No Money, Lesbian Luv Affair(cool drum sounds by the way!), My Girl.
Play wit' it and Wait a minute don't belong on the album though, imo. i'm sure Erotic had his reasons for putting those songs on there, but i think he shouldn't be doing this stuff.
anyway, Erotic proved himself as a performer and a writer on the album.
sure, he may not a top 10 list, but i didn't get the "hey, that's a producer trying to rap" impression either.
ok, he ain't new to this, but this is the first time he carried pretty much the whole album.
i really hope Erotic goes 100% hardcore next time though; he has the perfect vocals for it 8)
album rating: 7/10

-19 Don't Go Away (feat Verse)
ehhh no comment or rating ;)
-20 Porno Star
Nice beat and guitar... a fun track,but again it don't fit. Nice instrumental outro ;)
3 out of 5
Overall conclusion;
In my opinion he should have been a little stricter with the concept and selection of tracks,I'm sure there's a lot of cats that like those club and "porno" tracks...
He could have spread those tracks out on three albums,a club album,a "porno" album and a "lunatic murderer concept" album... but it is what is.
Overall rating;
3.7 out of 5
the conclusion is still up to date, but some tracks could have grown for Chad Vader so let's see ;)
-
and even some of the "lighter" songs are on point:
Black With No Money
^^^that's a tight track....^^^
and no my overall rating ain't changed ;)
i see ;)

anyway, i was looking at your ratings and i'm a bit surprised that you gave Daddy don't leave me a 6/10 rating ;)
was the hook acceptable for you? :-\
-
The album is Really Nice!!
I was not expecting anything but good music, and he delivered! ;)

I was trying to be nice :P..... but fuck it,I'll give it a spin now (the tracks I still got in rotation).. and give you a ".... months after the release" opinion ;)
ok that's confusing; trying to be nice is equal to contradicting yourself? ??? :laugh:
anyway, thanks ;)
-
in rotation; (all tracks; 3.5 or higher)
-2 Mr. Murderer
-3 Before I'm Out
-4 Mind Of A Lunatic
-7 Black With No Money (feat. Christi B.)
-8 G-None Reala (feat. Six2, El Dog, & Nina Ross)
-11 Serial Killer
-12 Live By The Gun
-15 U Need That (feat. El Dog)
-16 No Place (feat. Money Waters)
-18 Payback (feat El Dog)
10 out of 19 tracks is about half..... that should equal 2.75 out of 5 as you said ;).
But I like to add 0.25 anyway,yes to be nice...... :P contraticting or not :P,but I don't like to remember this album as weak :P :laugh:
So 3 out of 5 (rating = average). ;) thatīs it ;)
oh you mean it like that; overall rating, my bad :P
i guess 2 things got mixed up.
anyway 6/10 sounds fair to me, but that means your new rating is one point lower than the original one, as i remember that you first gave it a 7/10 ;)

yep... everything canīt be a classic. ;)
correction: a drop of more than one point ;)
anyway, yeah some tracks must not have had much replay value for you then ;)
