LG – Synth Sounds (Mixtape)

Friday, January 13th, 2012


 
Really really good mixtape from New Orleans. LG is only 17, but the execution here is more polished and assured than on many projects released by people twice his age. Which isn’t to say he’s on some ‘wise beyond his years’ level, LG is not exactly dropping jewels of knowledge. The content is fairly typical, it’s just presented very very well. The kid knows how to make a good song (seems to at least), and he does it repeatedly with impressive consistency. Big thanks to the DGB guys for putting me on to this.
 
A few samples:
 
LG – Meant To Be

 
LG – Let It Happen

 
LG – I’m Good (Feat. Franchise Tief & Bonka of @DaGoonz)

How the fuck is Count not on everyone’s gay “Rapper Of The Year” lists?

Chase N. Cashe “Daily Routine”/ “All In”

Hit-Boy and Merge produced “Daily Routine”. Pretty awesome. Hit-Boy is usually pretty awesome at beats. D. Rich produced “All In”. I like the overall dynamic of the song, but I can do without some of the Lugerisms. Chase’s Heir Up There should be a good time, as his rhyming prowess has really taken form. Kind of a swag rap for a dude with a healthy 401k. It works. Is Gumbeaux not the best produced album of 2011 by the way?

While easily my third favorite Surf Club rapper, Chase continues to expand his skill set and is becoming more interesting with every verse. The guy is going to be a commodity in 2012.

I’m pretty sure Big Mike has gone 20 years without spitting a weak verse.

I need Mannie Fresh to make an album of beats like this for someone. Anyone. Please.

Great opportunity to send a long distance shout out to Snake & Jakes Chirstmas Club Lounge on Oak St. The finest drinking establishment anyone could ever ask for. Easily one of the best bars in America.
