The negatives for Killer are few and very far in-between, but the largest is the abundance of guest spots. What's amazing is how Tech can switch the tone or subject of his songs in an instant without them sounding forced or unauthentic. However, the sincere moments are brief as Tech immediately goes into the portion of the album named "The Sextion" where he discusses the three "F's": Frolics, Flings and Fellacio. It houses arguably the best song on the album in the form of "Why You Aint Call Me", which finds N9ne discussing the politics of the music industry and even going into detail about being passed over by Jay-Z in favor of fellow Midwesterner, Twista: "I've been on tour with Hov, bout 27 shows/ why he ain't have me on a record only heaven knows…Twista's my homie and he's from the Midwest/ and I guess Hov ain't looking for another speed rapping kid yet". Surprisingly, Disc 2 is just as impressive as its predecessor. The tail end of thematic is highlighted by "Psycho Bitch II" which refreshingly revisits the original from his 2001 album, Anghellic. The second half of the first disc is billed as "The Dark Side" and rightfully so as all of the tracks carry a grim, sinister tone. Scarface, Ice Cube, Paul Wall and Shawnna of Ludacris' DTP clique all show up to drop guest 16's. The first half of Disc 1 holds this upbeat tempo for the most part and brings some big name features along with it. The ferocity of the beat is matched with standout lines like "…and I get so much money sometimes it feels like I'm wearing a yamika/ you cannot monitor/ my money I monetarily astonish ya/ so what's with the bad comments and all the drama fa…". He quickly shows his true colors as the album explodes into the first proper track, "Like Yeah", which has enough energy to make a can of Red Bull run and hide in the corner. During an opening skit that also serves as the album's intro, Tech pretends to have gone soft as he confesses his feelings to a psychiatrist.
Though the red hair and face paint are gone (at least for the album cover), the rapid-fire delivery and intricate wordplay are in tow and it is business as usual for the KC rap rebel. That wraps up my top 5 hopefully you guys enjoyed.Well if skills did in fact sell, Kansas City's Tech N9ne would be going multi-platinum on every release without breaking a sweat. Tech N9ne was solid as always and joyner was amazing. Personally, i agree that logic ruined the whole " speedster" aspect of the track but other than that i enjoyed it. Last but not least the speedy collaboration that was going to blow everyone out of the water, and then logic delivered a rushed verse that ruined the vibe of the song, or so people say. #5 Tech N9ne, Logic and Joyner Lucas- Siracha Its a great song and im glad something good came out of Revival This song felt like a throwback to the slim shady era, but with a hint of "3am" relaspe lyrics. Im a big Eminem fan, so this was an obvious choice for me. Drakes verse was decent but nothing to die for and kanye delivered a short verse i barely noticed on my first listen Wow, i hadn't even heard of Big Sean before this song,but after this i had to check out some of his other stuff. #3 Big Sean ft Drake and Kanye West- Blessings Ok, let me just say that im not an X fan, but he was great on this, despite the slurred lyrics, his verse was aggressive, raw and even humorous at times, while i still think Joey was better, X's verse was quality as well.
#2 Joey bada$$ and Xxtentaction- King's Dead Remix. As always DOOM's vocals are gritty and raw with that instantly recognisable voice I definitely enjoyed listening to this song as its so lighthearted and clever. This song is off the album Mmmm.Food and as with a lot of DOOM's songs it contains clever lyrics over upbeat beats. You've probably heard of most of the songs i recommended but hopefully I can help put you onto some new ones. Hi guys, this post is just to share some songs that I've been bumping the past week and see what you think about them.
