Al Gator - Nicky Tarentino
Artist: Al Gator
Producer: Reef
Album: The Untouchable
Label: Underboss/a.Fam Ent.
For those who, like yours truly, found themselves wondering, “Who the hell is Nicky Tarentino?!” after reading the title of Al Gator‘s latest feature, a quick explanation; he’s not a real person, but rather an invention of the late great Biggie Smalls, who either confused or deliberately conflated Joe Pesci character Nicky Santoro with director Quentin Tarantino on classic cut You’re Nobody (“Watch Casino, I’m the hip-hop version of Nicky Tarantino”). With that out of the way, this inaugural mixtape leak finds the Atlanta native who brought us Chronicles of the Underboss getting his Mafioso on once again, lacing Reef‘s swaggering funk samples with some appropriately larger-than-life braggadocio. Filling us in on his decadent lifestyle, Gator drops bars liberally seasoned with allusive wit: “Living room feeling so grand we could get married with it… Run out the backfield, ain’t no catchin’ me, I’m Barry with it.” Craving more high-rolling tuneage from this Panhandle State fast-riser? Then keep it locked – his Don Cannon-hosted The Untouchables mixtape has yet to receive a drop date, but you’ll be first to know when that changes.

Ok. The best thing about the track is the recognition to one of the greatest RB to ever play the game (maybe top 3).

I liked the production a lot, but Al didn't seem to rise too far above it. He has potential to be better, but he needs to shine a little brighter to get noticed by the masses.

Im not feeling the beat, too much sax too much voice ambience, Once again this is a track that the lyrics are too good for the beat.
