A Red Dot can mean quite a few different things – on a pizza it means pepperoni, on a price tag it means big savings, and when it’s on you, well, you’re in trouble. On this newly-leaked mixtape track, first-time featuree Dub joins forces with a familiar face and a fellow Booth newcomer to let listeners know just how prepared he is to pull the trigger on anyone who gets in his way. I Used to Get It in Ohio producer AraabMUZIK keeps his boardwork on the minimal side, pairing cymbal-driven percussion with a simple music-box melody as the Harlemite rapper, California native Hash, and the perennially underrated Cory Gunz deliver their aggressive, hard-nosed verses. Dub and his collaborators are right on target as far as rhymes are concerned, but do the strictly-street subject matter and stark sound add up to a bangin’ whole? I’ll leave it to you, the readers, to decide. If you like what you’re hearing, you can find more on Dub’s forthcoming FMM2 - Family, Money, Music 2  street album, set to hit the ‘net sometime in late November.

Sorry, I just can't really enjoy listening to songs about killing people. I tried to put lyrics aside and focus on the beat, but even that didn't get me excited.

Richard's intro had me laughing for several minutes, but that didn't stop me from diggin this record (part of which is because I was able to listen several times before tonight). While Cory impresses me the most here (he usually does), Dub clearly has some skills. Topical matter aside, good mixtape record.

Lyrically it was alright but nothing really exicited me with the song. Concept wise, rapping about killing people even for the dumbest reasons dosen't get to me. I even found myself rapping the hook but overall I was bored halfway through the song.

This song doesn't do anything for me. Usually anything about killing people won't do anything for me either.

The beat is pretty good I think. Cory Gunz saves this track as he is the new truth in hip hop. Cory Gunz is the real deal!
