From K. Sparks to XV to Treazon to, just recently, Young Son, underground emcees everywhere are throwing their hats into the ‘online series’ ring. Now, FrontStreet Records (the label home of StreetWear emcee Oseeola) has become the first label to jump on the bandwagon with a new, 50-week series in which they will premiere 52 new records by artists on their roster. First up is Detroit native Dux Jones (pronounced “dukes”), whose contribution sees him heading to the club in search of a woman to take home and Make A Flick with. Labelmate JAB sounds like he’s angling for a Best Supporting Actor award on his laid-back guest verse, but the big prize goes to production team The Skouts for their glossy, Neptunes-esque boardwork. Check back next week for the second installment of FrontStreet‘s 52/50 Series.

Not a bad track at all, but it didnt really interest me to much. Therefore, it gets an aight rating from me. The production is aight, the hook is kinda catchy but a little corny. His flow is cool, but nothin he said really made me too interested. Jab on the back end had a better flow for me and sounded better wit his laid back style over the production.

Yeah, there's nothing special about this one. Dux Jones needs to recruit an established artist for a quick 16 for "Make A Flick" to work on a large scale. He looks like a pimped out KRS-One circa 1988.

I agree, Jordan. A quick 16 from a more well-known artist could have upped this cut to a much higher rating. However, that isn't the aim of this series; it is to expose new talent. Regardless, its in rotation.

Normally, I love these underground tracks. I didn't really think this measured up to the artists mentioned by "M. Burmy." The production was OK and Dux Jones sounded decent. He sounds like a dude to watch out for though.

I thought it was catchy and the lyrics were also good ... though subject matter is cliche & Dux has a kinda corny flow, this track is undeniably catchy...

Yeah, I feel the Neptunes vibe... good production!
Good rapping, only lyrics could be more interesting or witty, if that's what he was aiming for... the laid back verse at the end really worked well! Artists this cut reminded me of (for random reasons): Kanye, Flo Rida (Dux voice), Bobby Creek... |

DJ Booth still is a great place to hear new artist. I thought this was a pretty good listen with Dux Jones putting down some good rhymes, though I agree with FredRico in that they could be more witty though

Great production but a little soft on the lyrical side. I'm looking forward to hearing more from this cat.

When it first starts playing I'm not interested. The producton on here isn't bad and i'm kind of feeling the chorus. Lyrically its whatever..nothing too special. I can't lie maybe after about 5 or 6 listens i could see myself singing along to it. It's sort of catchy. Its one of those songs where you hate it or is iffy about it at first and then later on down the road you can't help but admit that you're feeling it.

Hot track for what it is, Dux is definitely skilled lyrically, maybe too lyrical for this kind of track, I think he needs to work on dumbing his flow down on certain tracks, such as this one... overall, rating it for the kind of track it is, 4/5
