B.o.B. may be a superstar, chart topping rapper who goes on tour in Asia like I go on Doritos runs to the corner store, but despite all the success he hasn’t forgotten his roots, and his hip-hop roots. It’s still all about ill rhymes over a banging Boom Bap beat. That aforementioned production comes courtesy of the dependably dope Nottz, who adds in some futuristic effects to an otherwise percussion-dominated beat that holds true to its name. That right there would have been enough, but Bobby’s Grand Hustle boss T.I. jumps on board with a verse that (once again) reasserts his rap dominance, followed by a 16 from the suddenly resurgent, and newly renamed, Mos Def

Yasin Bey, anchored by a verbal contribution from the headliner that finds Bobby comparing himself to a Play Station 3 (shots fired at Sega Genesis!). A Buckhead to Brooklyn collaboration? Yep, its really happened, and it sounds dope. While it’s looking like spring of 2012 for sophomore album from B.o.B., fans don’t have to wait another second to download his new mixtape E.P.I.C., available across the interwebs right now.

This song first appeared on the Rap Chart on December 5, 2011

The new B.o.B mixtape is not EPIC (as the title suggests), but this song is the f**king truth (my favorite cut on the tape). I am looking forward to Bobby's sophomore assault on the world. I have high expectations (that happens when the Grammy take notice of your work).

Production is kinda annoying, took attention away from everything else... but for the most part it's good.

This beat Bumps hard by Nottz. Great production. T.I. ripped this right from the start and the song continues along the same great path. Mos Def killed it and Bob's flow was great. BANGER $hit!

It's like everyone read the lineup, didn't even listen, and rated it a banger. The beat was soft and empty, freestyle worthy (I know its a mixtape) but this is not B.o.B nor T.I high quality.

Solid effort from all 3 emcees. Not much to complain about when ever these emcees grace the mic. Put them all together and its even better.

Not quite the production i expected, I dont think these two artists, especially T.I is suitable for this type of track.
