MIXTAPE REVIEW: T-Bizzy - Nowhere to Hide

 

This is ill!!! T-Bizzy drops a deep, dark, and twisted collection of song called "Nowhere To Hide". With each song, T-Bizzy takes you deeper into the rabbit hole of his mind. My interpretation of his style is true poetry that is shrieked out so that the audience may properly feel his pain. The production is ridiculously dope. T-Bizzy creates full renditions of popular music, successfully making them his own. My favs is "Nightmare" and "John Doe ft. Eazy-E". officialtbizzy.biz

AUDIO DROP- RedBaren907 x Alcapella - F.L.Y (Forever Love Yourself)

RedBaren907 & Alcapella are on a mission to rescue hiphop and deliver it back to true hiphop heads! At 1st listen, the mixtape "F.L.Y or Forever Love Yourself)" gave me the same feeling of when I 1st discovered Sons of Man, Camplo, or Black Star!!!  

Hiphop artist, RedBaren907 is ill. He has an uncanny ability to make you think, all while admiring a well crafted flow! Producer, Alcapella will have your head nodding and reminiscing on what the culture used to be with nice samples and mean beats! My fav joints are "Just Another Day" and "Sam Cook vs RedBaren907". Enjoy and follow the movement below.

Here comes a project filled with such soul, enlightenment and grace. RedBaren907 (the emcee) and (the producer) Alcapella along with a raw feature track "rude awaken king" from Linndz Leroy come together to create the newly released "F.L.Y" (Forever Love Yourself) album, The soulful sampling of Producer "Alcapella" compliments the passionate yet composed delivery of RedBaren907. The duo could possibly remind one of the legendary team Gangstarr, however the two individuals enlightens the mind on today's economic structure, dilapidated urban infrastructures and religious ideals. RedBaren907 continues to raise the bar with his intellectual perspective.

@IAmGodReject

BIO:  "Reject Da Illest, a.k.a Cedric Lee McClain Jr. is a Rapper, Poet, Director and Songwriter born May 24, 1990 on the Westside of Chicago, IL. He was raised in a single parent household due to the tragic murder of his father in 1991. He relocated to the Southside of Milwaukee, WI in 2003. During his time growing up, the talent faced quite a few challenges with: school, the law, his personal life, and the list goes on.

He didn’t allow that to deter him from progressing though. In his late teens, he employed poetry and rapping to get him through the rough times. This form of venting eventually transitioned into the pursuit of a career in music. Track Banditz Entertainment became the brand for Reject’s musical endeavors. He co-founded the imprint with two of his closest friends. The outfit includes a sprinkling of artists with two in-house producers. 

The Mid-West artist has also released a handful of mixtapes and rocked various stages throughout select cities in the United States. Being driven by the influence of artists such as: J. Cole, Boosie, and Eminem (just to name a few), the multi-faceted Bandit serves as a prime example of the result of persevering in spite of one’s hardships. His dedication and versatile skill set are certain to keep him as a staple in the music game for many years to come."
