Starlito dropped two of my favorite releases this year. It feels pretty good to be alive right now.
Is one of those releases Mental Warfare? If so yeah i'm feeling that one quite a lot to but had been sleeping on listening to Post-Traumatic Stress. Gave it a spin just now and I was hoping for another project with all original beats but it's aight. I'm also pleased that he indicates that there's going to be a sequel to last years Step Brothers and the Tuco from Breaking Bad sampling at the end of one of the songs was cool but i'm a sucker for snippets of dialogue from shows and films I like.
That Cruel Summer cover is much better than the WTT one as that one just looked fucking tacky, all gold like that didn't translate well over to cover. Cruel Summer one looks cool, sort of arty and kind of tongue in cheek with the madame covering her breasts like so.
Does anyone care about Xzibit anymore? [/I]
Yeah sure why not. I thought that Phenom track he came out with a year or two back was a banger. I'll be checking this project out.
Man i'm still finding it very hard to take this shit seriously. I genuinely cracked up at the part when he was like and he looked at me and said Snoop Dogg no more, you are a lion. Some of me is like well surely he's just smoked enough good weed to somehow break his mind but to be fair he seemed quite positive about it, was entertaining as ever and made some good points during the interview. He's been phoning it in with the majority of his rap tracks nowadays so if he's genuinely found a new inspiration fair play to him.
Gonna drop of a few things now. Firstly i'm kinda looking forward to this project this guy called Mookie Jones has coming out in a couple of weeks that is entirely produced between DJ Burn One and Cardo. That should mean plenty of woozy country rap style instrumentals and cowbell. Mookie has quite a nimble and melodic flow and he ain't saying shit about nothing on the couple of tracks that have leaked but it's all good.
