Thanks for the insight homie, much appreciated.  Sounds like it's a little different from what, say a Clint Dogg does, where he just goes and buys a random verse and creates a song around it. I think the way you guys do it is the much better option.

Ahhhh, is that right?.

So the text details I sent Kokane didnt matter about the song he was singing for us?. Telling MacShawn100 what to say in the chorus etc?. Hrrrrmmmmmmmm and Top Dogg, nah I never told him what to say or say on the chorus either HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Ms.Toi ok.



All my songs with Kokane, Ms. Toi, Mac Shawn100, Top Dogg etc on iTunes. & Amazon.
Kokane & Clint Dogg - International Gangxtas, OUT NOW!...

to be fair, clint dogg is in australia and doesn't have direct access to the artists

i have nothing bad to say about what u do .... i understand that living in australia makes it more difficult to work with an artist in studio ... you do what u can because you're passionate about it, and that's commendable regardless.

Got it in the mail, gonna do a Track by Track Review.  First the packaging, it came in a sleeve, not with the whole liner notes which I was surprised about because RBX liner was pretty detailed.  Still nice artwork to fit the theme and back cover and tracklisting was dope—reminded me of buying singles in the 90’s they’d come in the sleeve like this and it’s like Maxi-Single or EP I’m surprised they didn’t list this as an EP 7 tracks but I think the decision was good to keep it at 7 tracks because there was enough room for signature solo joints and Labcabin fam cuts.

1.
Intro 00:51 - dope intro, sets the mood, concept album
2.
Nightstalker (Re-Stalk) [Ft. RBX & Krayzie Bone] 02:49 - best track. Strong opening, seems Labcabin might’ve had this one in the can and then added Roach.  But it’s a vintage Krazy Bone joint
3.
Razor Sharp 02:32 -  this reminds me of like an album cut from one of those 98’ Prime No Limit solo albums.  What they would usually do is have an over-hyped opening track with P and A-List acts on there, maybe a lead single—but then deeper in the album they’d give an artist like Soulja’s Slim or Mister Magic a chance to do a signature solo cut which showcased the featured artist for credibility.
4.
Storm 02:25 A dope solo joint a lot like the previous one—excellent production.
5.
So Much 03:56 — similar to previous two joints
6.
Hiding [Ft. RBX & Sccit] 03:15 — Sccit shines on this one they added some effects to the production so that Sccit comes in clean for his verse and then goes out with a bang also — “Gaza”
7.
Midnight Drive (Re-Verse) [Ft. RBX, MC Eiht, & Sccit] 02:50 -  I like the play one words with the Drive being in Reverse (remix) dope remixes because albums used to often have a joint like this at the end sort of like Eminem puttin “Still Don’t Give A Fucc” at the end of SSLP or you turn it into a posse remix type cut like BTN Resserection doing a “this is my family, this is my family” or NWA used to put at end of albums

Overall -  it’s a quality project from the production to the mixing, sequences, concept all flows seemlessly plays beginning to end.  I have to admit I’m not a fan of the whole Paul Wall southern draw accent whether it’s coming from a black rapper or white rapper I’m not a fan of the South.  So that made it harder to like the album and I didn’t like it from the headphones but bumping it in the ride driving around on my good speakers is a different experience came off dope. Solid project to keep up and maintain the Labcabin quality standard.
