my review may seem early but i spun this like 20 times since its been out lol
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Intro - Dope intro to an album and a good lead as too what the album is overall.
Body Music - From the intro to this is a smooth transition imo, the little skit helps, its like a flashback type shit. Lyrics kill it, rugged n raw shit. "This is '95 regiment like nomad travelers" - damn, takin it back!!
Commin Thru - Lyrically one of my favourite tracks. The flow was ill as fuck too. This track had my head noddin for hours. Just the flow is remarkable, mad switches in styles. Dopeness Max
Open Season - ILL, period. One of the best tracks on the album overall. Story tracks are always dope to listen too and this one is just sick. Menes dope flows fam, one of the best i heard from you. Max just.... murder!! "ALL BLACK LIKE A SEGA GENESIS" - what!!!Just so yall know, i die in this track lol, listen for it!!
Raw Way - This is definitely on some '95 shit, like some Onyx type shit. Slower flow from you is dope. Track is just hard body shit. "dirty needles on the floor" - thats real, those last bars are really vivid imagery
Gotta Get Mine - Bars in this one are just ridiculous. "Its Max and Merchant of Death, murderous breathe, my fist will push ya nipples through ya chest" - HAHA!! Max the styles on this one is retarded, that fast flow thrown in there, impeccable, for real. Props
Fuck You Doing - Been one of my favourite MOD beats for awhile, dope to hear some vocals on it. Once the switch comes in the whole track just gains a whole new level of hypeness. Then the switch back is very well executed.
Yo Yo Its 1995 - Nice collab, Notik some aggressive shit and starts the track correct. Max drops some nice lines as well. Not my favourite track i have heard from both emcees, but still dope overall.
What What Muthafucka - Nice track, its like a little interlude or something. "No matter how hard the winds howls, the mountain never bows, mighty Max, King Kongs only fear" - sick line
Life Introspective - "Check it out some deep shit" - damn straight thats all that needs to be said about this one.
First To Go - I like how it starts off the last beat, and the last line of the previous track give a little hint with the deja vu line. These beats are the types of beats you shine on most imo. I spun this track like 6 times in a row. Best Max track overall, flows, lyrics all on point.
Legendary Dartz - Another favourite MOD beat, vocals straight kill it. Take ya medicine son!! The vibe of this track follows the last one nicely with the beat and the lyrics. This is one of those tracks you just sit back blunted and vibe too.
Ipiphany - Rugged shit. This mad me wanna punch out the guy next to me when i first bumped this haha. The opening of this track sets it off perfect and it carries through the whole damn track.
Chess Boxing - The outro of the last track leads into this one dopely. Great track to end the album, some nice chess references in there and the flow is, again on point and has some nice variations in the track.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overall - Album is hard as fuck. All the tracks flow into each other nicely with the help of the skits and each tracks adds another piece to the overall puzzle, makes the album like a story unfolding and gets clearer with each track. Definitely on some 1995 shit with this one. MOD smashes the beats throughout the entire album, big ups to the man with the deadly hands!! This album is one of the illest drops lately and with the PCP album, will definitely be getting spins daily. Props Max, stay up fam.
Peace
