FredRico's TOP HIP HOP SINGLES

“0_o Nathan, you should be punched in your big boy face! ... XD haha Man, you're bold to dare exposing yourself like that! I don't like Eminem singing too (why does he have to make it so high pitched, wtf?! He's not even bad at singing, just chooses awful tones!), but everything else is perfect! Em's lyrics and delivery blow me away!!! I'm so glad people doubted him now! =) And what a pleasure to listen to Lil Wayne in a rapper mode, and a great one at that! The beat is great: way to make the sample work! I always get hyped as the beat builds up, like it was the first time. "Where the fuck is Kanye when you need him..?" is probably my favorite quote for some time to come... I know I could use Kanye when I'm surrounded by clowns! XD”

“WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!! I thought this was a crappy blend when I first saw it, cuz never would so many talent fit in one song... well, the result was AMAZING! =D”

“My favorite Shane song to date! This has musical vision! Just beautifully creative!”

“Niiiice! =D My man Shane Eli really likes to play with the percussion, huh? ;) And the brass sounded great too! Beat alone is repeat worthy! Diggy's flow was dope!”

“Like I said previously, I will rate every Shane Eli song at least 4* without even playing it first. See, it's a safe bet! Pure talent put to use in an excellent effort on production, songwriting and delivery! This is officially the last great introduction to an artist I owe to Djbooth!”

“Let me push this to it's deserved 4*!!! Damn!!! This guy is gold for Hip Hop!!! Unbelievable! Kanye West better put him on G.O.O.D. music, anything less is an insult! Pure talent put to an excellent effort on production, songwriting and delivery!”

“I knew when I heard "Full Clip" that it'd be a good idea to check Marky's next feature! ;) Man, Johnny Cash... what a way to start a song! Crazy sample! The claps combined perfectly with the background guitar, but the synth was a little overwhelming. :s The bridge on the other hand worked very well! Marky's confidence is backed up by real emceeing skill, so I can take it!”

“Eminem's back at his GOAT mode, awesome. But there are 2 reasons why this song is not a classic for me: the production is cheap and there's too much singing on the bridge, and in such a high pitch.”

“My favorite rapper since Lupe! This guy is a breath of fresh air, his flow is so distinctive, the lyrics come from a true gifted artist and yet he produces his own material?! You are crazy if you don't know who dat is. The percussion is the highlight for me on the production, so dynamic and eclectic. The build up approach is also masterfully done and the climax is great! This would be an easy 5* for the average rapper, but I'mma be like Nathan S. and rate it 4* cuz I know J. Cole can do better! ;)”

“I'm not a Drake fan, but I enjoy his music. Yes, it is possible! Drake's not the best rapper neither the best singer, but he makes quality music. It's impressive how comfortably he switches roles on the records and he made this song his, despite all the Kanye influence. Great production by the way!”

“Wow!!! I knew from the first chords I was gonna like this! So FRESH!!! I doubt any of my fellow djbooth members know who "Bob Schneider" is, but this has a vibe like that. It means good, chill music, with a natural ability to tune your mood into "happy mode". Another rapper producing his own material?! No complaints from me! =) I like his natural flow and bs-less lyrics.”

“It's official: from now on, I'm rating every Shane Eli at least 4 stars before even listening to the song! So many talented new artists out of nowhere, producing their own material: J. Cole, B.o.B., Eli... damn! Production was dope, I love the intro and Jay-Z would've loved to rap over this too, I know it! =)”

“What?! For me, the flow was sick! Plus, this was more like a real freestyle and not something previously written, not to mention the beat is original and very enjoyable! So simple, yet engaging. I definitely wasn't with the low ratings wave of my fellow djbooth members this week! ;)”

“In 2006, I was a fan of Styles P, with the album "Time is money". I never understood why he didn't blow up, but this is sure to put him on the map again. A good production always helps: those epic strings on the background create the perfect mood for a come back of a warrior! That "Over" sample is creepy but catchy! @grimm: you might wanna check "Real Shit" and the whole "Time is money" album.”
