DJ Kay Slay ft. Papoose & Junior Reid - Don’t Take It There

DJ Kay Slay - Don't Take It There ft. Papoose & Junior Reid

Producer: Clinton Sparks

Album: More Than Just A DJ! (Mixtape)

Label: Streetsweepers

It might come as a surprise to you that between ’04 and ’08, Papoose released a mind-blowing 20 mixtapes (coming out to an average of more than one every three months, folks) without releasing a single studio album. Alright already, Papoose, we get it: you don’t want to be tied down by the politics of the industry. Even with the release of his debut album, The Nacirema Dream, always looming, the Bed-Stuy rapper is still staying true to his roots. Along with Jamaican dancehall artist Junior Reid, Papoose appears on DJ Kay Slay’s new track, Don’t Take It There, off Slay’s upcoming effort, More Than Just A DJ (the mixtape, of course). As can be expected from this crowd, the song is a bit of good old-fashioned fight rap. Producer and DJ Clinton Sparks contributes a blaring, heavily-sampled beat.

Mike Dreams Tastemaker Total Ratings: 2130	Rating: Mike Dreams's Top Rated Songs Production is nice actually. What's the original song? I like Papoose's verse a lot. Junior Read was nothing special. His energy is good though. I think I'll throw it rotation.

DJ Z DJ Booth Crew Total Ratings: 11684	Rating: DJ Z's Top Rated Songs This is a VERY unique collaboration. Papoose just can't seem to get a break and Junior Reed will probably never catch on here in the states like he has in his native country. This could be the most talented group of artists to make a track that won't get any love. Sparks killed the scratching. Follow @DJBooth

PattyPatty85 Tastemaker Total Ratings: 3212	Rating: PattyPatty85's Top Rated Songs I like the background music and the beat, but I don't like their flow and singing...it seems they have nothing to do with the background music! If I had had this song, I would probably have sung all the time...BTW I've heard worse
