Phil Adé - Monte Carlo Dreams
Artist: Phil Adé
Producer: Sunny Norway
Album: A Different World
Label: 368 Music Group
What exactly is Phil Adé Monte Carlo Dreaming about? Riding around town in a brand new Chevy Monte Carlo? Grabbing his passport and flying to tropical paradise Monte Carlo? Or maybe it’s winning enough money at Las Vegas’ Monte Carlo casino to buy a Monte Carlo, drive it to the airport and fly to Monte Carlo. Either way the DJBooth Freestyle Alum isn’t afraid to dream big, and sound pretty damn dope while he’s at it. Frequent production collaborator Sunny Norway sets the pace with an appropriately glittering and riding beat that grabs…wait for it…indie rock band U.S. Royalty’s Monte Carlo. On the mic we’re treated to the kind of smoothly flowing and hilariously punchlined verses we’ve come to expect from Phil (I see you Wesley Snipes reference), although here he’s taking his inspirational delivery to a new level. It’s exactly the kind of high energy joint that should have fans riding with Phil all the way to the release of his upcoming album A Different World, due to drop July 19 over at 2DopeBoyz. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a Chevy dealership and a travel agency to visit.

Phil and Sunny are excellent with one another, but I prefer when their collaborations are more upbeat. Phil's on-the-mic energy can be infectious to the listener and this is a step behind where I would like it to be, ideally - this criticism comes from a very selfish place, clearly (word to Big Sean). Regardless, the man has talent - duh, but we knew that.

I think it woulda been dope if the guitar hit a few more notes, like if somebody was actually playing it... (but I'm happy nonetheless) I think his dreams will come true as long as people keep hearing solid stuff like this.

Phil and Sunny Norway are one of the best rapper-producer duos i've seen. Love it.

Had this for awhile, all I can say is I've been smashing it, the production is a beast from the guitar to the 'Ohh Who Who'. Phil Ade at his best.
