I don't know about ya'll but I've been fiendin'
for this project. Nothing but good shit can come from a DJ Scream
project and one of the most lyrical cats in the game Mista FAB. Bar for
bar I put Mista FAB up against anyone out right now he will steal their
shine. Not only can he spit he got songs, concepts, raw emotion and
overall balanced music.
Truth be told the grind is a terrible thing to waste. MCs now a days running place while hustling backwards. Following trends, relying on the net to much or not enough while not hitting the streets at all. Mistah FAB the poster child for effective grind tho, take notes MCs.
Mistah FAB breaks down what a real grind is on "The Grind"..."fresh up out the house with that where that money at stare"...I can dig it. "25/8" is kinda fresh too, anthem potential right there. "Don't Know My Pain" is that raw emotion and storytelling. "But When ya life's like fright night hard to fight right." Word play is serious throughout. I'm not gonna front like I bump the shit but "Hit Me On Twitter" grew some legs and opened some ears. At the very least it shows the potential that Mista FAB has commercially. The metaphors were potent on "No 420", def not your average weed song either, horns had me open too.
One of the reasons I dig this project is that I know it's not Mista FABs best music. He's not about to fall victim to the "mixtape is better than the album" syndrome that a ton of MCs fall victim to. Its a well balanced project tho, just enough to keep you fiendin' for some more new shit and that's what a mixtape is really supposed to do. DJ Scream and Mista FAB on their game cats need to take notes.
