DJBooth.net, 2DopeBoyz.com and illroots.com are proud to present 810’s brand new mixtape, Glass Half Full.
Produced almost-entirely by Mydus (two songs are produced by DCypher), the Glass Half Full is an optimistically-titled endeavor that showcases the wide-ranging mic skills of the Baltimore up-and-comer.
According to 810, “This mixtape is about an unwillingness to give up, when it feels like the whole world is against you. If you are a underdog then this is for you. I just wanted to keep it real.”
We couldn’t agree more.

half way through it and its dope. You can tell it was produced by the same person because it flows the whole way through. More albums need to be done like that. Mydus whatup!

This one will definitely be returning to all manner of music players in my life.
810 take us back to the golden age of hip hop while revamping it and upgrading it for the current era. Mydus and DCypher really put their foot in this one. Each track is packed with beats that would make Golden Age-heads a little misty-eyed. From the drums patterns to the soul samples to the creative use of instruments, everything works and then some. Lyrically, this project is tight, tight, tight and tight. 810 expertly combines thought-inspiring lyrics with personal touches and battle rhymes. At all time his delivery is in tune with the music. Label problems, female problems, the state of hip hop, and the struggles of making it as musicians are all discussed over the course of the seventeen tracks. There is hardly ever a moment when a track drags on too long or a beat just doesn’t feel right. Mydus is in a real rhythm right now, first "GodSound" with Black Sunn and now this, turning out to be one hell of a producer, and the fluency with which his beats move from beginning to end is really enjoyable to listen to. He expertly lays down a thick and brilliant funk with brassy horns on title track "Glass Half Full", while, "U Won't Like This" takes it a level that would snap necks as an instrumental alone. Irresistible groove. Cameo appearances from Black Sunn on "Hire Us" and Black Diamond on "Cheat" only help to improve this Mixalbum more. The result is a cohesive project that flows seamlessly from top to bottom and feels completely unforced. I give 810's "Glass Half Full" a 4.5 out of 5 stars for fresh lyrics, timeless beats and a complete, concise package that lives up to all of my expectations. My Top Picks: 1. U Won't Like This 2. Issues 3. Shame On Me 4. The Oath 5. Pressure Is On 6. They Don't Wanna Know |

Once again 810 lives up to my expectations. Glass Half Full is a testament to his dedication and unwillingness to bend or sacrifice his style for anyone. Baltimore should be extremely proud.
