Woody - Make Believe
Featuring: Charles Hamilton , XV
Producer: Woody
Album: LoveLife
Label: Unsigned
When you have a track with two well known emcees backing up someone less known for their vocal work, there’s always concern for the possibility of Diddy Syndrome (one guy without any talent manages to bring down the entire song). Thankfully, this is far from the case on the latest solo feature from Woody, who made his DJBooth debut with Over and Over Again and has now brought along some friends, Charles Hamilton and XV, for his new record Make Believe. Best known for his production work, Woody makes sure that his talents are utilized where they are most commonly heard (behind the boards), but he also manages to vocally stand on his own two beside Hamilton and XV, a feat most producers would find challenging, to say the least. The laid back vibe helps to easily transition from one artist to another, but as always, it’s hard to find a way to make Vizzy not stand out on a track. If you liked this successful crossover, be sure to keep a lookout for Woody’s latest project, LoveLife, due out October 6.

Woody crafts a highly catchy beat, over which two of his favorite collaborators come correct. I'll give the nod to XV over Charles, simply because he sounds more engaged and into the track. This is a stand out, in my eyes (ears), from what I've heard of the new "LoveLife."

XV's improved SO much over the last month. First Vizzy Zone (great tape) and now this. He should really be getting looks for an album. I could see him fitting in with G.O.O.D. Music, but their crew is probably already full for now.
Charles Hamilton's verse was nice too. The rhymes were as numerous as they were effortless. I didn't know how XV would top that, but he did. Competion makes great music. Last, and maybe least, but still @*#$! awesome is Woody. His voice is interesting, really sincere. And if his verse wasn't enough, the produciton top-notch. |

XV aka Vizzy def added a great verse to this track. Im not so into woody's style and voice so can't say I love this song but it is good. A laid back beat can never be wrong

Great verse by XV, surprisingly unremarkable verse from Charles, great beat, decent vocal work from Woody, it all adds up to a nice, enjoyable joint. I'll definitely be checking out LoveLife.
Just for the record XuUP17, XV signed to Warner Bros., so unfortunately even a hypothetical Good Music signing isn't gonna happen.
