Review corner: BAKED Mixtape


Today we will feature another local talent from our hood by the name D. This is not Hardcore or Punk but D is involved in the local scene since the 90's. Also I am no biggie in terms of hiphop or rap music.  All I know is I have an open ear that I can listen to any genres available. So let me warn you, this is Rap/Hiphop feature. Open your ears and press play.

D is known for his work at the Civil War mixtape producing beats for some of the country's best Rap Artist like Mike Swift, J-hon, Loonie etc. The Jazz and Reggae samples made an impact to this release, providing us with a laid back beats and is a perfect background for your lazy afternoon with a pipe load or at the beach kind of feeling. 

Guest artist feature some of our own rappers like Mike Swift, God's Will and Mel Christ who are making names in the countries local Hip hop scene. Also included on the list is the now famous Loonie, J-hon, D'Franchise, Aero,  Cali DRO, A.M.P and Rhythm.

Notable tracks are We are feat. God's Will, Sunday feat. A.M.P, Lola's Song with Aero rapping about the love for his Grandmother I love the sample D used on this one, Rat Race with MelChrist. It's on with J-hon, Mike Swift and Loonie, Natty DRO featuring Cali DRO with some Natty Dread's beats from Bob Marley. Nobenta Sais the bonus track was insane with killer rhymes from Loonie, Mike Swift and J-hon.

One thing lacking on this release would the artist info and some lyric sheets since I always look into the words being put up by this artist. I am not complaining though, since this is free. 

This a release that Batagueno's should be proud of. Thanks to my man D for this great beats. 

Pass it on man.
