Juelz Santana - Mixing up the Medicine
Artist: Juelz Santana
Featuring: Yelawolf
Producer: Kane Beatz
Album: Born to Lose, Built to Win
Label: Def Jam
Feeling a little under the weather? The latest street single off Juelz Santana‘s long-awaited third full-length album finds the Dipset emcee hard at work in his basement laboratory, Mixing Up the Medicine that’ll cure what ails you – or, at the very least, get your head nodding. With a hook cribbed from the opening lines of Bob Dylan’s ‘65 classic, Subterranean Homesick Blues (here performed by I Wish rapper Yelawolf) and a twangy, one-chord instrumental by Kane Beatz, this bass-booming jam is an oddball blend of rap and folk that, stranger still, comes together bangingly (yeah, yeah, that’s not a real word). Santana turns in an impressive performance on the mic, trading lines with a few young fans on the front end before launching into three verses’ worth of swagger-drenched braggadocio. So, Booth readers, is this track the shot of penicillin the game needs? If you think so, stay tuned for further details on Santana’s Born to Lose, Built to Win LP, which has yet to receive a solid release date from the label brass.

Better than Medicine by Plies, i thought it was pretty good, Juelz is either on or off in my opinion, he was on on this one

Finally a Juelz single that I can enjoy. The production on this is absolutely killer. Santana would have had to make a serious effort to @*#$! this one up. I'm digging the chorus and guest feature as well. Only issue is I feel like Juelz's voice is overpowered by the epic-ness of everything else; makes me just want to hear the instrumental.

I was starting to jump off the Juelz bandwagon, though this track has brought my faith in him back. production is good & Santana finally put in the effort we all know he can.
Best track on the booth today |

Juelz is back with the punches. I think his verses outshined the beat and the hook. I'll put it in rotation. Man, how long has Born To Lose, Built To Win been delayed?

The highlight here is YelaWolf. His vocals on the chorus are what makes this record move. Juelz is okay on the record, but he is capable of a much more highly-energized flow.

Yela wolf brought lots of energy. his joint with raekwon was harder, but juelz was solid. Song hits the speakers well.

Stepped his flow up halfway back to where it used to be and avoid being completely overshadowed by beat. Pretty solid back to back punchlines. I like the beat, nice sample and YelaWolf simply snapped on the hook.

The Bob Dylan sample, that is re performed by Yelawolf is dope. Its definitely not the best I've heard Juelz bring it but its still a banger.
