DJ Suss.One - That Work
Artist: DJ Suss.One
Featuring: Cassidy , Joell Ortiz , French Montana , Vado
Producer: Reefa
Album: The Feature Presentation Album
Label: Unsigned
When at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Despite scoring a lukewarm 2.5-star average rating for his last feature, Maino-assisted album leak Let ‘Em Lay, DJ Suss.One sounds as determined as ever on new street single That Work. The N.Y.C. native kicks his latest banger off by emphasizing just how serious he is about his music, and what follows certainly doesn’t lack intensity. Producer Reefa rises to the occasion with a bass-booming blend of synths and overdriven guitar, setting the stage for the hard-hitting rhymes of not one but five street mainstays: with Uncle Murda, Cassidy, Joell Ortiz, French Montana and Vado each firing off their most aggressive lyrical ammunition, That Work should spark some lively debate regarding who came out on top. If this attention-grabbing jam has succeeded in winning you over (or if you’ve been on board from the get-go), keep it locked for the latest on DJ Suss.One’s The Feature Presentation mixtape, which has yet to receive a release date from the label brass.

I'm always amazed by our members who take the time to break down large posse cuts like this, critiquing the feature guest choices and ranking them in order of best to worst. I usually don't head down this lane, but why not?
In order of impression (good to bad): Joell Ortiz, Cassidy, Vado, Uncle Murda, French Montana. I'd love to explain why, but after one listen you'll probably be on the same page. |

Right from the beginning the production sets the tone for this song. It has that sort of hype behind it where you know the guest verses need to be up to par or else the song will greatly suffer. Thankfully all the verses did just that.
The two verses that stood out to me were Joell Ortiz and Cassidy. Both brought the heat and went above the rest. The others were fine but Ortiz and Cas were just better. Overall the song is real solid and is definitely worth the listen, 3 1/2 stars. |

This beat goes hard! Ortiz is my dude and he definitely brought it on this track. Overall, good stuff.

Damn, this is some pretty epic shit. Production is dynamic, eclectic and all over the place. In other words, I love it. Line up at a first glance doesn't seem to be that big, but all MCs did their thing.
My order from best to worst: Joell Ortiz, Cassidy, French Montana, Vado, Uncle Murda. This was a good track to add to the collection. "Let Em Lay" was the shit (IMO) and this is a close second when compared. |

Cassidy and Joell should have just made the song themselves. Everyone else is forgettable. Song is solid but not a fan of the others.

Put those Cassidy and Ortiz verses on repeat, the rest I could do without.
Beat's a banger though, definitely some fight music. Can't rate it that highly if I wasn't feeling half the emcees, but no hate. This goes in. |

Isn't it Uncle M now?? Anyways, the beat definitely gets me hyped up but I'm not a fan of most of the Artists.
Good to see Cass back and I was able to listen to the whole thing so agree with DJ Z's rankings |

Damn this line up is nice. Production is smooth and all the flows sound nice on this one.

The battle rap feel on the production side works well for this. Ortiz stabs this.

Cassidy and Joell were on another level, this is defiantly a street banger.

One thing I've learned from baseball is never put your weakest at the top of the batting order. Suss ignored this and Uncle M got us off to a bad start. The rest was solid.

You can tell who is established and who isn't. Cass and Joell put in work- no real standouts beyond that. Production was good. Z is right, After listening to Cass and Joel, I didn't really want to know anyone else's name on the track. Should have just done a collab and cut those other guys out of it.
