On his Booth debut as an artist (he’s been featured numerous times on the production tip), Nottz makes an announcement to all up-and-comers looking to build their careers on cheap imitations of Hov, Biggie, 2pac, Nas, or Big Pun: “You Can’t Hide The Truth. After Nottz’ opening verse, in which he affirms his individuality and urges rappers to quit jockin’ Jay’s fresh, guest artists Kardinal Offishall and Cory Gunz jump in to back him up, stating that, though they’ve taken inspiration from legends living and dead, they’ve got too much respect for their idols to simply rip them off. A few cleverly-applied samples of Tina Turner’s We Don’t Need Another Hero (the theme from Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome) form the backbone of Nottz’ instrumental, which also incorporates snippets from the aforementioned greats. Though Can’t Hide the Truth is only a promo single, it proves that the producer also has a lot to say on the mic – will he be the next high-profile beatsmith to successfully make a name for himself as an artist?

Great concept! Nottz spits the truth on his verse, but its nothin special. The samples on the hook sound a bit thick, but it's pretty good use of them. His production def outshines his lyrical abilities, which is to be expected. Kardinall's verse was OK, but his flow was kinda annoying to me. Gunz brings it, and def had my favorite verse on here. |

I can't help but picture this in a hip hop remix of Dirty Dancing...the chorus at least. As for the rest of it, well there's a lot goin on so its hard to pick it apart. Reachin lyrics. |

Nottz' beat and vox, as well as KO's vox are so tight that it makes up for CG's verse (which is a nice idea but it don't sit right) Nottz' vocals sit perfectly in the mix. KO's not as nicely - not talking flow and delivery, listen to the mix the air around the vox; the reverb is lifting them vocals right off track. GC's verse is worse for that. I would bet that these vocals were recorded in different booths with different mics, but what do I know. Anyway... back to my first though: Nottz' beat and vox, as well as KO's vox are so tight that it makes up for the third verse (which is a nice idea but... |
