Babytron – “Out on Bond Again” review

New surprise mixtape & the 12th overall from Detroit emcee Babytron. Coming up as a member of the ShittyBoyz along with his childhood friends Stanwill & TR Dee signing to Lando Bando’s own The Hip Hop Lab Records, he also branched out on an impressive solo career for himself as well as the side groups Lewis & Clark and the Dookie Brothers. But the last couple years was probably his biggest yet landing interviews ranging from No Jumper to even Rolling Stone following the release of Luka Trončić until signing with EMPIRE Distribution later that same month & Bin Reaper 2: The 2nd Coming that same fall. Bin Reaper 3 ended the trilogy with a 2-disc effort, the bootleg Style EP wound up being disappointing & the full-length LP 6 made up for it as did Megatron 2. His collab mixtape Mario & Luigi with Certified Trapper wasn’t all that great either, Tronicles was cool, Luka Trončić 2 did a solid job of recapturing the energy of the original & now he’s Out on Bond Again only 24 hours away from former 3-time WWE women’s world champion AJ Lee ending Becky Lynch’s 2nd reign as WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion at Elimination Chamber XVI.

The title track sets it all off with a Detroit trap beat talking about recently getting caught with a controlled substance in Atlanta, Georgia whereas “Barkin’” includes a line about juggalos, alluding to the fact that Motown Rage fronted by his dad Mr. Sadistic was signed to Psychopathic Records almost 2 decades earlier. “2026” references former The Crash Mundial Pesocompleto Campeon & NXT Tag Team Champion Cinta de Oro leading into “JJ” talking about being a self-made millionaire.

Rio da Yung O.G. joins Tron for “911” produced by Danny G to spit some of that gangsta shit while “USA” talks about visiting almost every state in the country. “Tell Me” makes a reference to both former 17-time WWE world champion, WWE Intercontinental Champion, 5-time WWE United States Champion & 4-time WWE tag team champion John Cena and former CWA Heavyweight Champion, 6-time NWA World’s Heavyweight Champion, WWE Hall of Famer, 6-time WWE world champion, 3-time WWE United States Champion, 6-time WWE Intercontinental Champion, WWE Tag Team Champion, TNA Wrestling co-founder & AEW’s current Director of Business Development Jeff Jarrett.

“Geek Time” featuring 1900Rugrat finds the 2 decently trading a handful of brief verses with one another while “Curtis Granderson” reaches the halfway point experimenting with a funkier vibe instrumentally talking about taking anyone’s money if they’re giving it away. “Goldeneye” refers to one of the greatest Nintendo 64 games of all-time while “iCarly” featuring BLP Kosher displays their chemistry with each other over a Pi’erre Bourne beat, including a reference to WWE Hall of Famer Mike Tyson’s fight against former WWE United States Champion Logan Paul’s brother Jake.

Jorjiana appears on the single “Carhartt” talking about their experiences of being Michiganders but once “Offset” combines a cloudy backdrop & some 808s explaining that one’s life would be the cost of fucking with the Dog $hit Militia at large, “Say No to Drugs” hops over an uncanny Jakesand instrumental talking about people living in the past because of discontent regarding their lives in the present day & suggesting those who ain’t benching enough to get their weight up.

“Rice Street” featuring Scatz trades the mic back-&-forth with each other for the entirety of a singular verse referencing WWE Hall of Famer, 7-time WWE world champion, 7-time WWE tag team champion & WWE Hardcore Champion The Undertaker alongside WWE Hall of Famer, former SMW Tag Team Champion, 3-time WWE world champion, 2-time WWE Intercontinental Champion, 12-time WWE tag team champion & WWE Hardcore Champion Kane a.k.a. former 3-time WWE tag team champions The Brothers of Destruction while “Wondering” asks himself who’ll be there when shit gets sticky. “IDK?” ends the tape with him confessing to the uncertainty regarding of how he’ll pass.

The original Out of Bond extended play is widely considered by many Babytron fans to be the weakest entry across his entire discography & the sequel makes some slight improvements above it’s predecessor although I wouldn’t put it in the same category as Luka Trončić or the Bin Reaper trilogy. There are only a couple guests that I could’ve done without, but I’d love to hear Danny G or Jakesand produce an entire body of work for him since I feel like they’ve always been able to bring the best out of him & I appreciate that it’s a bit shorter than some of Tron’s latest output.

Score: 3.5/5

Curren$y & Larry June – “Spiral Staircases” review

This is a new collaborative EP between New Orleans, Louisiana rapper, songwriter & record executive Curren$y as well as Vallejo, California rapper & songwriter Larry June. Both of whom began their careers 2 decades ago each, crossing paths on a number of tracks in recent years like “Sunday Morning Drive” or “Vintage Haze” to name a couple. They’re also known for their own individual projects produced by one of my top 10 producers of all-time The Alchemist, who’s bringing them together to walk up a set of Spiral Staircases.

“Stars on the Roof” opens up with a rap rock instrumental talking about how real shit gets & the streets making them move at a different speed whereas the only single “Everything Allocated” goes for a boom bap direction referencing WWE Hall of Famer Koko B. Ware. “Drive Alone” brings a drumlessly jazzy vibe to the table talking about feeing high & low leading into the title track discusses their player statuses.

The song “Palo Santo” smoothly starts the final leg of Spiral Staircases looking back at going from chasing their freedoms to taking the money & fame while “2.P.I.G.” brings the boom bap vibes back 1 last time suggesting to focus on winning since no one will save you. “Empty Pages” featuring The Alchemist however sends off the EP with all 3 of them spitting hardcore verses without the need of a hook over a soul sample playing the game hard to the max.

Sucks we won’t ever get a sequel to Fetti because of Freddie Gibbs having beef with Curren$y for some reason but as much as I enjoyed Life’s Beautiful with 2 Chainz a little over 12 months ago, I’d have to prefer Spiral Staircases between the 2 collaborative efforts. Alchemist’s drumless jazz rap production compliments Spitta & Larry June’s calm flows whilst both of them hit us with a chemistry that makes the most absolute sense.

Score: 4.5/5

DaeMoney – “Slae Season IV” review

Detroit trap star DaeMoney returning for his 4th studio LP. Coming up as the nephew of one of the 2 biggest artists in the city right now Babyface Ray as well as a now former member of the WRLD Tour Mafia collective, he broke out on his own by dropping his debut mixtape Young Sexual Misconduct & his debut EP Slae Season accompanied by his 2nd EP Rockstar Lifestyle & then his previous tape Slae Season 2. Slae went on to sign to EMPIRE Distribution a few summers ago & celebrated in the form of his most recent EP Slayer’s Coming fully produced by Trees shortly after as well as a 3rd installment of the Slae Season trilogy & a sequel to Rockstar Lifestyle. He was surprisingly dismissed from WRLD Tour in 2024 due to scamming through Slam A Slut Records, coming off the last LP The Godson & the Slayer’s Revenge mixtape continuing the Slae Season saga.

“Training Day” begins with a cloudy take on the Detroit sound talking about people coming around with him looking like Ethan Hawke’s character in the classic Denzel Washington crime thriller of the same name whereas “Hero < Villain” works in some bells, synths & 808s flexing that the shit he does is rare compared to anyone else. “Wassup” moves forward talking about having too much sauce & advising not to ask how much it costed him leading into Allstar JR joining Slae to post up “On 7 Mile” although I prefer the latter’s verse over JR’s personally.

Babytron helps make things up on “Heat” saving the best Detroit trap collaboration for last continuing the streak of crossovers they’ve had previously like “Earned It” or of course “Mafia & Militia” just before “Sick & Tired” expresses his frustrations towards people throwing lies on his name. “Blessing” starts the 2nd half incorporating some sampling chops talking about how he doesn’t snitch because he was raised differently leading into “Right Now” going for a somewhat tropical approach telling us where his heart’s at currently.

“Ecstasy” blends some piano chords with hi-hats talking about the love of his life while “M.I.L.E.” suggests all of his young homies to get out the streets after learning it’s not worth staying there. “I Meant It” has a more exuberant trap vibe talking about being in the mob for real & once “Yours Truly” spends a couple minutes to spit a verse off the top talking about being WRLD Tour forever despite not appearing on their output these past couple years, the closing track “Pain” sends it all off confessing he went insane after losing his money & people.

Slayer’s Revenge was probably the most conscious that DaeMoney has ever gotten lyrically & although I liked it more than The Godson, I felt like there was no way that Slae Season IV would be worse than either of those considering how beloved the other 3 installments are & thankfully I can say it’s Slae’s since Rockstar Lifestyle 2. The production healthily balances the Detroit sound & cloud rap mixing the signature gangsta raps that he’s become known for with some of the same maturity we got from him a few weeks ago.

Score: 4/5

RMC Mike – “Lover Boy Mike” review

Brand new EP & the 5th overall from Flint, Michigan recording artist RMC Mike. Signing a joint deal with Rio da Yung O.G. & Peezy’s own labels M.I.N.E. Entertainment & #Boyz Entertainment alongside EMPIRE Distribution, his first couple EPs Rookie Season & Sophomore Season established himself as in the Detroit trap scene until his full-length studio debut Junior Season elevated it further. Ghetto Season was a good debut & the sophomore effort Senior Season left me on the fence, boasting after a trip to The 6 that nobody can do it Like Mike & now introducing us to Lover Boy Mike.

“Clap Back” sets up shop with a lowend beat talking about smashing from behind & that he acts fat despite not being all that big whereas “Fine Shit” featuring Rio da Yung O.G. embraces the Flint sound fully so they can big up how beautiful the women beside them are. “S.T.A.B. (Shake That Ass Bitch)” comes through with a quirky Flint trap anthem catered towards the strip clubs while “Lil Booties Matter” talks about his appreciation for females who’s asses aren’t the biggest.

To get the 2nd half going, “Is We” featuring Louie Ray confronts the ladies in mind to ask if they’re officially in relationships or if they’re being played just before “Slow” featuring Jiggs Ent & Tiera Santoya cloudily finds the trio getting raunchy. “Where They At” instrumentally takes a more boisterous approach talking about him looking for hoes & after “Punch In” featuring Rio da Yung O.G. improves above “Fine Shit” to let their back-&-forth chemistry shine, “Kensington” combines pianos & 808s to end the EP so he can boast that he’s the one.

I don’t see myself coming back to Lover Boy Mike as much as The 6 or Like Mike considering both of those have quickly become amongst his most celebrated material as of late, but I have to give it up to RMC Mike for making an entire extended play themed around his sensual side in preparation for Valentine’s Day weekend. Even if a couple of the guests punched under their weight, Mike keeps his wild sense of humor in tact & the Flint/Detroit trap production’s more luscious than usual.

Score: 3/5

Your Old Droog – “YOD Serling” review

Ukrainian-American lyricist Your Old Droog’s dropping off his 11th EP albeit the 2nd & final one in 2025. Breaking out through his self-titled debut, many actually first thought he was an alter ego of Nas given that their voices are somewhat similar. He eventually became a legend in his own right off later projects such as Packs as well as It Wasn’t Even Close, TIME & the Nicholas Craven-produced YOD Wave. I didn’t think YOD Stewart, Yodney Dangerfield, The Yodfather & The Shining were as great in my opinion although they most certainly had their highlights & Movie the summer prior became a depiction of his life on wax. 4 whole weeks since anything‘s possible & YOD Serling has arrived only less than a week away from Christmas.

“Suspects” produced by Edan begins by chopping up a chipmunk soul sample so YOD can vividly tell the story of a robbery taking place & after “Pitstop” takes the boom bap route instrumentally talking about still enjoying the simpler things whenever he question why he came back in town, “Ghostwriter” goes drumless thanks to Edan once again recalling an artist who reached his apex & went on to use ghostwriters.

The song “Victims of the Streets” runs it back with Edan for the last time continuing to show off the latter’s ear for sampling & Droog remembers those who lost their lives in the hood because of poverty while “Freekazoid” sends off the EP going for a rugged boom bap vibe thanks to K-Nite 13 referencing the underrated mid-90s animated series Freakazoid! owned by Warner Bros. & Amblin Entertainment.

Originally announced in May of 2017, it could be considered a Christmas miracle by people like me who’ve been closely paying attention to Your Old Droog since my senior year of high school when his eponymous debut was made that YOD Serling has finally arrived & come to prefer it more than anything’s possible. 60% of the production preludes YOD’s next full-length set to be entirely produced by Edan & the lyricism focuses more around his abilities to tell stories.

Score: 4/5

Skyzoo – “Views of a Lifetime” review

Brand new extended play & the 6th overall from Brooklyn, New York veteran Skyzoo. Emerging in the underground off the 9th Wonder produced Cloud 9: The 3 Day High, he continued to make a name for himself with a consistent discography. Highlights include The Salvation, the !llmind produced Live from the Tape Deck, A Dream Deferred, Music for My Friends, the Apollo Brown produced The Easy Truth, In Celebration of Us & my personal favorite: the Pete Rock produced Retropolitan dedicated to his home state. All the Brilliant Things built itself around gentrification & The Mind of a Saint was dedicated one of my favorite shows Snowfall, coming off the Old Soul Music-backed Keep Me Company to discuss the Views of a Lifetime.

“Tags at the Moma” produced by Camoflauge Monk talks about scheming for 20 cans a day over a boom bap instrumental whereas “Pardon Me” flexing that he was cut from a more Godly cloth. “The Wager” takes a drumless approach thanks to Cartune Beatz asking for the specifics of a bet & once “Sky is Like” homages one of Nas’ greatest singles ahead of Light-Years next weekend, “Devotion” talks about finishing the school of hard knocks with honors over a crooning Conductor Williams beat.

Thelonious Martin jumps behind the boards for “Love Day” incorporating a flute & a soul sample comparing himself to Gil Scott-Heron wearing a Carmelo Anthony jersey while “Hope & Pray” takes a few minutes talking about wishing nothing but the best for the person he has mind. “The Soloist” blends jazz rap & boom bap courtesy of The Other Guys suggesting he might be better off by himself while “Half Bloom” strips the drums talking about taking on more than he had to.

Picking up where Keep Me Company left off last Black Friday, this new extended play 53 weeks later deals with looking back on what was after you’ve settled into this new world of the growth Skyzoo’s last album explored & I’d actually say I’d prefer Views of a Lifetime over it’s predecessor. I feel like the production’s stronger & the 1st Generation Rich Inc. founder reflects on how his previous life has changed drastically & it got him where he is currently.

Score: 4.5/5

TM88 – “F.I.L.A. (Forever I Love Atlanta) 25” review

TM88 is a 38 year old producer & songwriter from Atlanta, Georgia known for being a founding member of the 808 Mafia alongside Lex Luger & Southside respectively. He would also form the TGOD Mafia trio with rappers Juicy J & Wiz Khalifa in addition to producing Lil Uzi Vert’s biggest hit: “XO Tour Llif3”. However in light him forming his very own EMPIRE Distribution imprint Crash Dummy Records, one of trap music’s greatest beatsmith has celebrated with his own debut album.

After the “Vet Radio” skit, “Juiceman” by OJ da Juiceman co-produced by Zaytoven begins comparing his wrist to Fruity Pebbles whereas “Wrong with That” by Jose Guapo & Quez finds the 2 talking about a shawty who wants to fuck their partners. “B.A.B. (Break a Bitch)” by Tracy T breaks the law down to become a boss just before “Layers” by iMcFli references Tubi, the home network of the WWE’s secondary development brand EVOLVE.

“Grady Baby” by Yung Ralph gives the world insight in regards to what things where like for him growing up as an 80s baby while “Return of Church” by Mucho flexes that he sent a freaky hoe to H-Town coming off a jet. “Quadruple” by Futuretalks about sleepin’ with women in 4s off of nothin’ leading into “Friday Night” by iMcFli, Luchee Mulan & Quez sampling “Issa Party” by Jose Guapo, Shad da God & Young Dro to recall how they used to spend their Friday evenings.

DJ Spinz gets behind the boards for “Lies” by Baby D & Travis Porter bridging together the crunk & futuristic swag eras while “Make Em Get the Money Right 25” by Pastor Troy serving as a spiritual successor to the D.S.G.B. track off their final album ‘Til Death Do Us Part. “Ice Cream Truck” by Travis Porter throws it back to the futuristic swag days again while “Extra” by Shad da God talking about having his old shit with him.

“Kick In (Oww)” by Fabo of D4L starts the 2nd half explaining that he’s experienced some shit in his life because of being born in the hatred while “Shake Sum” by Travis Porter & 2 Chainz comes together for an ATL strip club heater. Fabo returns with Moneymyface so they can get “Geeked Up” together to mixed results while “I Want That” by Sosotrap talks about being anything but average throughout his career.

Preceding the “Crash Out Radio” skit, “B.D.A. (Bounce Dat Ass) by 4Batz’ wife Anycia continues to channel that strip club energy handling a sole verse wedged between a repetitive Waka Flocka Flame hook while “Take It Away” by T.I. & Young Dro talks about their respective legacies. “What’s This?” by T.I. & 2 Chainz links up to speak of materialism while “Stuff Man” by Yung L.A. could be his dopest song since “Ain’t I”.

“Twin Bruddaz” by Waka Flocka Flame talks about feelin’ a way he hasn’t felt since Slim Dunkin’ was murdered during my freshman year of high school while the “F.I.LA. (Forever I Love Atlanta) Tribute” by Blanco Brown finishes in the form of this passionately sung dedication to Trouble, Bankroll Fresh, Rich Homie Quan, Young Scooter & Takeoff. Maybe the greatest song of his career considering that a great deal of his music isn’t for me at all.

Being a genuine fan of TM88’s production work ever since my adolescence, hearing that he was putting out an entire LP containing other artists performing over his beats from start to finish had me excited from when it was announced because I believe he could curate something special if he wanted to. F.I.L.A. (Forever I Love Atlanta) 25 however has me a little divided due to the inconsistency amongst the guest & most importantly, parts reminiscent of Metro Boomin’s 2nd mixtape A Futuristic Summa & Jermaine Dupri’s 3rd album Magic City.

Score: 3/5

Your Old Droog – “anything’s possible” review

48 hours following it’s announcement, Ukrainian-American lyricist Your Old Droog’s 10th EP is here. Breaking out through his self-titled debut, many actually first thought he was an alter ego of Nas given that their voices are somewhat similar. He eventually became a legend in his own right off later projects such as Packs as well as It Wasn’t Even Close, TIME & the Nicholas Craven-produced YOD Wave. The 4 last EPs he’s given us YOD Stewart, Yodney Dangerfield, The Yodfather & The Shining weren’t as great in my opinion yet most certainly had their highlights at the same time. Movie became a depiction of his life on wax & wants y’all to know anything‘s possible.

“Game 7” produced by Khrysis starts with a soul sample explaining that practice being the most important thing whereas “Confetti” featuring Count Bass D finds both of them talking about being willing & ready to feel the tiny pieces of streamers raining down. “No More” goes for a rap rock vibe admitting this shit doesn’t feel special anymore & after “Vanilla Fudge” flexes that not many can see him with the grammar, “Bronny” finishes by talking about having sons in the game already over a Kenny Segal instrumental.

Literally the only other time we’ve gotten to hear YOD in 2025 was his feature on “The Rose Bowl”off The High & Mighty’s reunion album Sound of Market, so it makes me happy he gave us a 12 minute extended play to hold fans off until Droogie Otis’ highly anticipated full-length debut. The production feels equally consistent as Movie’s was 17 months ago with the anything’s possible name playing a huge role conceptually.

Score: 4/5

Von Pea – “Putcha Weight on It” review

Brooklyn, New York emcee/producer Von Pea reuniting with The Other Guys for his 4th solo LP. Currently 1/2 of Tanya Morgan with Donwill, he would later embark on a solo career with 2007 debut mixtape Grand Vonye as well as it’s follow-up So Motivational: The Most Skullduggery of Mixtapes & the full-length debut Pea’s Gotta Have It. Right after the Duly Noted. EP was when Mighty Joe & Isaiahstarted working with Von however, producing the To: You EP along with the sophomore effort The Fiasco & the I’m Good Luv, Enjoy EP respectively. Last we heard from Von by himself was his previous album City for Sale & Duly Noted 2, running it back with The Other Guys suggesting to Putcha Weight on It.

“More Johnny” opens up with a boom bap instrumental explain it that his legendary status will continue to be spoken of even when he’s gone whereas “Roadblock” featuring Che Noir finds the pair talking about people clapping at barriers & trying to rap with Black Thought. The title track by Tanya Morgan featuring Skyzoo gives off a dusty jazz rap vibe coming in stronger than initially said while “Lights On” talking about phase 4 being the type of shit that keeps the power on.

Meanwhile on “Slide Off with Her Homie”, we have Von continuing to bring that old school boom bap style to the table telling us what he’ll do to a skeezer if she doesn’t see how dope he is until “Hains Point” heads for a jazzier direction once more spitting like they gave him some kind of bribe. “Knew It All” featuring Oddisee crosses over elements of jazz rap & boom bap responding to the people who act like they know everything just before “Love Over Like” soulfully talks about romance.

“Shown Up Me” begins Putcha Weight on It’s final moments by having the drums constantly fading in & out like ocean waves flexing that be doesn’t need more than 7 people whenever he makes an album leading into “Bway & Myrtle”talking about trying to get on during the off-season sampling an organ. “Root for the Villain” sends it all off with a funky outro remembering one of hip hop’s greatest lyricists & producers, which happen to be none other than the late MF DOOM.

The Fiasco up until this point has been my favorite Von Pea solo effort & to commemorate it’s 8-year anniversary passing yesterday, Putcha Weight on It improves from the divisive feedback I’m Good Luv, Enjoy received although I personally didn’t mind when it came 10 months succeeding the album that preceded City of Sale. He & The Other Guys liken their chemistry to the late King of Pop himself Michael Jackson & the revolutionary composer Quincy Jones linking back up after 7 whole years for a collection of jazzy boom bap hits.

Score: 4/5

Danny G – “WTF Daniel!?” review

Danny G is a producer, DJ & occasional rapper from Detroit, Michigan notable for being an in-house producer for Lando Bando’s very own EMPIRE Distribution imprint The Hip Hop Lab Records. He’s gone on to produce some of the biggest names in the Detroit/Flint trap scenes from the ShittyBoyz to Rio da Yung O.G. & RMC Mike, expanding his production rapport greatly all of 2025 from Bruiser Wolf to most recently Icewear Vezzo yesterday. However, Danny’s celebrating Halloween with a debut album of his own after announcing it 12 hours earlier.

“Dynaco” by Babytron made for a promising intro talking about tripling his net worth as opposed to what Google will say whereas “Larry Bird” by DJ Lucas co-produced by Jakesand decently references the former 3-time NBA champion of the same name. “Gotta Have It” by Kasher Quon talks about trying to put someone afraid of taking risks on just before the cold-blooded “Roomba” by Joeyy that Danny & Carlo Anthony cooked up likens his Glock to a lightsaber.

$kid & Danny share a moment together trading bars with “Newsport” talking about puffin’ Newports in a brand new 2-door whip leading into “Heat Streak” by Krispylife Kidd embracing a Flint sound flexing that Danny paid him a reasonable $54K for his appearance. “Kpop” by Certified Trapper works in a vibraphone talking about flaming people with the blick while “Kith” by Since99 & $weet-T trades the mic back-&-forth with each other.

“Starbury” by Babytron & ZelooperZ pairs the 2 so they can go hard until they’re cremated in urns while “The Yoyer in the Froyer” by Big Bye feels more like a spoken word interlude rather than carrying over that Paper Plates energy, which disappoints me. “Shottas Music” by Louie Ray, RMC Mike & YN Jay links up with each of her for a Flint trap ode to the gangsters around their parts while “Alpha Bay” by Danny G himself featuring LG Deno Skeno & $weet-T serves base that will melt faces off.

Ankith Woods’ performance on “Guitar Hero” was alright despite the nod to the popular series of rhythm games celebrating it’s 2-decade anniversary while “F&N” by $weet-T surpasses “Kith” & “Alpha Bay” in my opinion, recapturing the $weet & Silent Dan aura with Helluva’s asistance. Since99 returns by $weet-T’s side during “Marquis Chris” causing pandemonium & madness while “I Want It All” by Big Quis talks about desiring the finer things in life

Finishing up Danny’s debut, he hops back on the mic 1 last time for the song “Darius Rucker” featuring ChoppaLee turning up the Northern California influences referencing Hootie & the Blowfish’s frontman of the same name while “It’s Funny” by Stanwill talks about not giving a fuck who’s fake because he’s surrounded by real ones. “Back Talk” by Fordio & MJPaid recaptures the chemistry of their Made & $tyle collab tape while “Sometimes” by Babytron finishes things the way he started it.

One of my personal favorite producers in the Detroit/Flint sound subgenres of trap, Danny G’s full-length studio debut was an exciting surprise to me although I didn’t enjoy it as much as Jakesand’s 2nd EP Sandbox last summer. Although I have no complaints regarding Danny’s production, one of my biggest criticisms regarding WTF Daniel!? boils down to the list of performers over his beats being some what inconsistent.

Score: 3/5
