Sheek Louch - Nite Falls
Artist: Sheek Louch
Producer: Statik Selektah
Album: Donnie G.
Label: D-Block/Def Jam
Though most Booth readers had nothing but praise for Sheek Louch‘s recent foray into club/radio territory with current single Party After 2, the few who were concerned that the D-Block member misplaced his edge in the transition to Def Jam can breathe a sigh of relief; newly-leaked album inclusion Nite Falls finds the NYC vet going back to his gritty, street-ready roots. Boston heavyweight Statik Selektah mans the boards, flipping a moody sample from prog-rock group Planet P Project’s Top of the World as the emcee describes the changes his ‘hood undergoes after dark: “Here come them goons again, it’s gettin’ dark, I think I’ll sharpen up them spoons again…” Boasting bars that pack enough lyrical detail to make even the most jaded listener shiver and some top-tier production to boot, this cut should have longtime followers and new fans alike rubbing their hands together in anticipation of Louch’s fifth solo album. Agree with my assessment? Then remember to pick up your very own copy of Donnie G. when it drops next Tuesday, December 14.

Now THIS is the kind of record that Sheek Louch fans - you know, the ones who would never expect him to do a pop record with Jeremih - would expect from the D-Block emcee. If the rest of his new album sound anything like this, its going to be a monster.
Kudos to one of the best in the game, Statik Selektah, on the mean production. |

Sheek has a nice flow here. Like the background singer in the background with the production.

This is a weak track from his Donnie G mixtape! Go get the mixtape and there will be better joints than this on there for sure! D-BLOCK for life baby! The Wolf is back... just not on this track...

The production from Statik Selektah is the best part of the song, sorry to say. But im just not feeling Sheek in this. I feel like his verses are weak and the lyrics are random and off point. I really like the backround singer. Im sorry to say but the highest rating i can possible give this is "in rotation"....

Production by statik is great as usaul, Sheek not so much. Flow and lyrics are really average. Sheek: do not waste Statik's beats.

Good production from Stat and Sheek sounds really comfortable on this. The sample is ace too.
