LOUIE--AROUND THE CORNER

A UNEXPECTED RELEASE CALLED "AROUND THE CORNER" FROM MARK "LOUIE" GHOLSTON PROMISES A WELL ROUNDED MIXTAPE
AND FROM A INDIVIDUAL THAT WILL SURPRISE YOU

HIS LYRICS ARE FULL OF EMOTION AND AMBITION. STARTIN OFF WIT "THE PRETTIEST" WHICH FEATURES A DRAKE SAMPLE WHERE LOUIE SUCCEEDS IN MAKIN A GIRL FEEL GOOD AND APPRECIATED N WORDS PUT TOGTHER LIKE "HAD TO BE THE COLDEST NIGGA/CUM N TRY TO MELT ME/AND HER MONEY RUNNIN NIGGA JUST LIKE SNOTTY NOSE"

OTHER TRACKS FAIL TO LEVEL WITH THE SAME ENERGY SUCH AS "SEX STRUCK" WHERE HE FAILED TO CATCH UP WITH THE BEAT

TRACKS SUCH AS "LOUIE ON HIS GRIND" ISN'T THE STREET ANTHEM ITS MEANT TO COME ACROSS AS BECAUSE OF A "NON GANGSTA" PERSONALITY. ALSO WHERE THE ARTIST DISSES JON HARRIS ABOUT CHILDISH FACEBOOK BEEF MAINLY BECAUSE OF A GIRL THE PIECE COULD DO WITOUT SPITTIN "WHO SHOT YA/ IM THE ONE WHO GOT SHANELL/LAUGHIN AT YA ASS LEAVIN ALL THEM VOICEMAILS"

MORE UPSCALES TRACKS FULL OF POETIC EMOTIONS SUCH AS THE TRACK "THUG HOLIDAY" EXPRESSIN MISSIN LOST FAMILY AND FRIENDS

ALL OTHER TRACKS SEEM LIKE THEY ARE JUST FILL-IN BUT NEVERTHELESS ITS A WELL ROUNDED MIXTAPE WIT A WIDE SELECTION OF BEATS AND LYRICS LOUIE GAINS APPLAUSE

90S BABY MIXTAPE

ANOTHER ALBUM FROM FELLOW RAPPER YUNG DYCE

WITH HIGH TECHNO SOUNDIN BEATS; A MIXTAPE THAT IS MORE OF A CLUB BANGER THAN ANYTHING ELSE; ITS DEFINITELY SOMETHING PEOPLE CAN MOVE TO. BUT DOES IT BANG LIKE ITS SUPPOSED TO? WITH TRACKS LIKE "OFFICIALLY TRAPPIN IN THE PUSSY", "PHONE SEX" AND "OFFICIALLY GET OFF MY DICK" THE LYRICS SEEM KIND OF DISRESPECTFUL.

THROUGHOUT THE MIXTAPE U HAVE SCRATCHIN OF TRACK BUT IT SOUNDS MORE LIKE ITS SKIPPN INSTEAD OF SCRATCHES (SOUNDS A LITTLE BIT UNPROFESSIONAL).......

"BARBIE DOLL" SEEMS TO BE THE BEST OF THE COLLECTION WHERE HE SPITS "LAUGHN AT U BARBIES/SEE U IN THOSE PICTURES SAYIN YALL GOT CAR KEYS"
THROUGHOUT THE SONG HE TALKN BOUT INTERNET WOMEN POSIN TO BE NICKI MINAJ

DYCE MAYBE A GOOD PICK WHEN IT CUMS TO SELECTIN BEATS BUT IN A PERSONAL OPINION OF MINE; HE'S JUST ANOTHER BUBBLE GUM RAPPER

free agent review

FOCUZ FINALLY DROPPED THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED MIXTAPE "FREE AGENT" BUT THE QUESTION IS: IS IT WHAT THE FANS EXPECTED?

THE MIXTAPE STARTS WIT THE BOSS STATUS ASSISTED "BY ANY MEANS" A STREET ANTHEM THAT WILL GAIN RESPECT FROM THE STREET ESPECIALLY WITH A VERSE FROM GRAND HUSTLES NEW COMER "YUNG L.A."

AND OTHER STREET ANTHEMS SUCH AS THE CATCHY "THAT'S BOSS STATUS" COULD HAVE EVERYONE SINGING ALONG

THROUGOUT THE MIXTAPE IT'S FILLED WITH CLUB BANGERS SUCH AS "I'M GROOVIN" MAY GET YOU MOVIN AND HEAD BOBBIN IF U FEELIN RIGHT BUT OTHERS SUCH AS "LET ME SEE" AND "100 PROOF" FAILS TO MEET EXPECTATIONS.

ANOTHER TRACK "WAY TO THE ROOM" IS WITHOUT A DOUBT A CROWD-PLEASER AND PROBABLY does GETS THE LADIES TO THE ROOM

THE MIXTAPE REDEEMS ITSELF WITH CATCHY HOOK ASSISTED TRACKS BY LATE MC BREED "SWAGG HEAVY," "LIKE A STAR," AND OLMPICKS PRODUCED "I'M FOCUZED"

ONE TRACK, "USUAL" FEATURING "RAIL FRESH" AND A VERSE BY "Q SHOTTA" HAS A LOT OF CHEMISTRY BUT "SWAGGER" WHERE FOCUZ APPROACHES WITH A LOT OF ENERGY AND SWAGGER BUT IS OFF BALANCED WIT THE "Q SHOTTA" VERSE WERE HE DOESNT APPROACH THE SONG WITH THE SAME AMOUNT OF ENERGY

FOCUZ ON HIS FIRST PRODUCT LACKS BEATS, AND THE BEATS COULD'VE BEEN BETTER N OVER FILLED WIT LYRICAL FREE FOR ALLS ........OVERALL THE MIXTAPE IS A LITTLE LACKLUSTER AND COULD DO WITH A LIL MORE STYLE AND CHARISMA.
