Young Dro - Clean Wit It
Artist: Young Dro
Producer: 2 Band Geeks
Album: P.O.L.O. (Playas Only Live Once)
Label: Grand Hustle/Atlantic
2009 looks to be Young Dro‘s year to break back into the mainstream. In addition to being featured on the remix of Grand Hustle labelmate Yung L.A.‘s current smash-hit, Ain’t I, his current single, Take Off (also assisted by L.A.) has also started to pick up some notable buzz, peaking at #4 on our Rap Chart. Though his climb continues, Dro hasn’t forgotten his underground Atlanta roots, as evidenced by new buzz/street single Clean Wit It. With his witty wordplay on full display, Dro goes more fast-paced and aggressive than usual, likely motivated by 2 Band Geeks’ hard-thumping beat. Clean Wit It will easily serve its purpose as a record designed to bump heavily in the whip, and will likely earn a spot on numerous mixtapes as well. At presstime, Dro’s sophomore album, P.O.L.O. (Playas Only Live Once), has no release date.

This is an interesting track. I thought the production was weird at first, but it grew on me as the song progressed. Dro flowed nicely on it which is a plus. The hook was ok. I think this is a song that sounds weird at first, but will grow on you the more times you listen to it. In rotation for now, I could come to like it more though. Looking forward to the album.

For some reason it isn't letting me rate it, but I'm gonna give it a 3. I love the very strange production, but I can see how some will get annoyed about it. Dro's flow feeds off the production well, and I am feelin the vibe he brings here. The hook is a little lacking, but for a street single its great.

The production is really questionable but the beat is good and catchy. His lyrics are pretty good. I can throw it in rotation

Im a fan of Young Dro's work, he's got a good flow on this & he seems to be able to feed of the production well. Didnt like the hook that much though other then that its pretty solid.

Other than the fact every time I hear a new Dro song I think to myself, "Ja Rule? You in there?", I completely enjoy his work.
This beat is bananas (as is the production on ALL of today's features) and Dro does with it what is need to create a banger. |

Young Dro is so underrated. While he's no great MC he can still rap nonetheless. The beat kinda annoys me though. 3.4/5

this is more the type of song u just play in the whip, turn up, and let it knock, not payin too much to the lyrics, cuz the flow it tight enough to make the track hot, does sounds similiar to ja rule tho aha, but dro still lays down a bit of his own flava

The beginning was really confusingly crap. but then it changed. That's the thing with rappers like these (for me). They don't really grab my attention until the bass is turned up. Banger

Im a fan of Young Dro. Track is bangin however i think it coulda been mixed better - if it has been mixed at all. Some of his parts are too low. But if I hear this with the levels on point - Itd be a banger

If the beat is good, the music is horrible in my opinion. His flow is ok! Not a bad song but just not the type that would catch me

The beat definitely has knock and this is exactly why I think T.I.'s Grand Hustle is really shaping up to be good. They got these street bangers, that while they lack lyrics, they got good beats and hooks. This hook is repetitive, but the beat is knockin and on point, making it catchy. Yung L.A.'s got "Ain't I", Dro got that "Take Off", B.o.B. got "I'll Be In The Sky", Grand Hustle is definitely holdin down the street bangers for the south. Solid street single here for Dro, lyrically its the usual, but this is what he does.

I think this is a fresh track but I didn't like it very much. The beat is bangin and so is his flow, but the music could have been better. The production is kinda creative I must say, but after a while it makes the song boring...I esp don't like that background sound in the music! I'd give 2,5 to this, for it's originality

I love Young Dro and everything he's got going on. His black boy swag white boy tags and his polo stuff is cool. The production is unique, not in a good way though. I like the knock of the beat, but not the melody. I like Dro's flow nonetheless and I hope his summer single will be hot (saw a video of him and Jim Jonsin in the studio, so you know he's gonna get a hit!)

It's good to see that Dro is still writing but this song was not better than "Shoulder Lean". I give it a two because he tried to write another rap. Constructive criticism for Dro would be to stick with styles like "Shoulder Lean". He would sound better if he threw a MC on the track with him. Lil' Wayne? Maybe mix it up with T-Pain. But he deffinitly should add another hit artist on the track!
