Well its been a while before i did a review so i need to do the newest mixtape i listened to : $wace :In sickness comes health
Now this mixtape was suppose to be in a different direction and it was ironically it seemed like a love letter to his alternative family. As it seem like every song seem to talk about his bros or gang. The name the name of the mixtape could been named "family no friends" and could have made sense. Futhermore it seems M.U.S.I.C was a better mixtape concept wise however this mixtape had better individual songs. With a new upbeat trap with a certain feel like chanting should be done on these beat so his song writing skills has been increased. However lyrical versatility has failed lets look at the songs.
1.Even 4 sounds like it belongs on even 6 a great opener for the mixtape it makes it seem like it connects with the old project 4/5
2. Lost N found (which samples kp shorty swing my way which Charles Hamilton also sampled for bk girls) in this song $wace talks about the previous street life that he was once living . So a look at his life from ny with the mention of an old flame keisha (so i guess neicy is out of the picture) and also boogotti a brother of swace who was featured on his first mixtape cover 4/5
3. Politicin 2 maself in this song we get a look at his troubled life basicly having a therapy session with yourself while smoking and if my experience with weed and thinking have been correct this is what i probably would sound like 5/5
4. Boo goo ti is finally a look at his full feelings of what happen to his fallen brother the only problem with this song is how short it was but it left me wanting more 5/5 it has a high rating because of the build up that we had for about 4 mixtapes and he finally opens up about it i wonder if we would get a more emotional look one day
5.Young boyz another version of lost n found just with a more wild out ghetto type feel 3/5
6. 2 11l gang a real weird song with weird vocal effects and he choose to use a consistent flow talking about his gang shooting despite the asap rocky type flow that kinda comes out of nowhere it still falls short of lost n found or young boyz
7. Bros pt 2 another song about having close to friends that he consider family do you see what i mean above about how this could been called family before fame or something along those lines its not a bad song just after 2 songs about the same thing it gets pretty redondent and repetive but it's good song to play with ya homies in the cars
8. Let you have it a song about shooting and fucking good concept using let you have it as bullets or seeds but yea what happen to this health part i get the sickness the negative tjings in his lide but where the healthy positive parts in his life like his son that he talked about in his other mixtape we heard his son on lost n found so hows hes doing do swace have a job is he going to school we dont know for a title like in sickness comes health ots kinda hard to focus pn a concept when you need trying to leave from the sickness part
9. 4 da gang another song about (guess what swace and his gang will shoot you ) its a good song for what it is
10. So what Is a apparent diss to a group of guys who claims fours 7 thats not pro era and its a banger for what it is
11. Wid Da the outro of this mixtape
Besides the that you take it for what it is even 6 is still my favorite as a whole however i like the song independently but as a project it could have been done better
Next is homework and beats
Final grade c
