Up-and-coming beatsmith J. Cardim, first spotted in the Booth on underground rapper Affiliate‘s Dope Boy for Real, dropped his street debut, Your Favorite Rapper’s Favorite Producer, just last week via Amalgam Digital. Don’t Play With My Dough, included as a bonus track on the DJ Envy-hosted mixtape, is a paper-stacking anthem on which Cardim teams up with three Booth-approved emcees. Clicking percussion and staccato synth stabs, along with a nigh-incomprehensible vocal hook, set the stage for money-hungry verses from Red Cafe, Wale, and MIMS; although the subject matter is a little stale, the collaborators provide plenty of quotable lines – Wale creatively spits “I make them n*ggas see like beta carotene,” and MIMS claims, “I could sell a mouse to an elephant.” The witty braggadocio on display here makes PWMD an enjoyable listen, and Cardim’s production skills are sure to net him plenty of dough in ‘09.

Hate to say the word, but this one's got swagg. MIMS has been impressing me lately, and Red Cafe has never dissapointed me with mixtape cuts. Lovin everyone on this, good work.

No...remember cb126405, this year's word is "flicky". This joint gots that "flickiness' to it. The hook was okay. J. Cardim wasn't bad, but nothing special. Red Cafe was average with his flow. Mims did he thing as well.

feelN the hell outta this track right here ya'll..red cafe still needs a new stamp to his shyt,cause that "what else" is annoyin' as hell..if it weren't for dj khaleds "we the best" stampN,red cafe would be the most annoyin one out there..but hopefully 50 cent made him re-think that "we the best" whackyness with his officer ricky..anyways,this track still in that banger status for me

Someone needs to tell Red, Wale, and MIMS that if they come with the same lyrical bravado, intensity, and overall energy, all of their cuts would be 10x better. Laid back rhymes is soooo '05. Nice work, J.

I really like the hook on this one, but it is just another "got money" track. I really like the production at certain points, but I just feel like there's something missing to make it a little better. All three of the verses were cool, but none of the rappers on here had too much intensity. MIMS was surprisingly my favorite on here.
