For those who missed our earlier lesson on the differences between Northeast and Dirty South rap (in October, we demonstrated Baby Boy da Prince and Jae Millz each spitting over the same Mannie Fresh beat), the DJBooth is proud to present the second class in our course. Last November, Rocko released his Drumma Boy-produced debut single, Umma Do Me, which, despite lackluster lyricism, landed the Atlanta native a deal with So So Def/Island Def Jam. Now, several months later, Philadelphia MC (and infinitely better lyricist) Cassidy has made his own freestyle version entitled Umma True G. While his verses easily fit the beat, The Hustla illustrates much greater skill in his bars, with variation between different speeds and rhyme patterns along the way.
I'm seriously considering pitching an idea to Cassidy: Do an entire mixtape of freestyles over all the hot production that was used on Rocko's album. Who's with me?
Hell Yes! Now this is what im talkin bout! Thank you Cassidy. Yeah, I agree wit DJ Z, Cassidy should redo the dudes whole album. Rocko's album makes me wanna cry for all the fantastic production he ruined.
Agree Z!! And I would love to hear a crazy-produced album by Cassidy, so that his talent would reach to everyone. I like when he changes flow, it’s important not to get boring, even though he always spits quality (in the same line as Fabulous).
This remix is hot. Glad to see some more of Cassidy after his lonely ONE single off of his HOT album in November. I'm sick of hearing the same Rocko song on the radio and bet everyday, so this is a good switch
not bad not bad, cassidys always got a soild flow, but the hook is too much like the rocko, i thought he would flip it a lil more then dat, but its good tho, 3 out of 5 just for the raps alone
boss dogg his flow is boring to me...unfortunately I don't understand what he says (English isn't my mother language) so lyrics are no important for me in these songs! If I manage to understand lyrics (when they rap slowly for example) I give lower or higher rates if I like/don't like them Anyway he did some excellent songs, it's just that I don't like this one
CASS RIPS this beat! Go look for Max B. Umma do me which is also over this track...He is dissin Jim Jones on it and it is Sick too! This beat was always nearly flawless in my opinion. And CASS is one of the BEST lyrically...Definitely TOP 10 of all time!
one of the best freestlyers but not the best or the best rapper that goes to wezzy ya dig but still its still a good song though he use rocko's beat thats why only a 3
DAMN Patty...how can u say someone is boring if you can't understand their speaking (because your primary language isn't English). That's like me going to a reggaeton site and saying that they are boring even tho I don't understand Spanish! That's not a fair way to rate in my opinion!
@*#$! is fire, Cassidy is definitely, one of best out right now, he's exactly what this Hip Hop needs. Rocko is wack, he can't rap, and should've never made a CD, but I can understand that he's Money Hungery, so it's all good I guess. I can only respect his hustle though, not his music.
Glitz yeah I see that someone can understand me!! I'm sayin that his flow is boring, if I find it boring the song can't be that good to me. Stop hating me I'm even tired to rate...I will stop doing it I guess
<B><I> first I just want to know where all these fine ass females came from, all of a sudden lol!
<P>
anyhow I like this song but I wont put it in any mix tape I make cause its too lo grade even the flow is sick, especially how he switches it up! 5-10
