re: CyHi the Prince - Black Hystori Project Mixtape review (MTOTY candidate)

12. February 29th ft. Jon Connor & Zip K, Prod by Sekou Muhammed, Chris Tucker, & Tec Beatz - Another more smoth beat by Sekou but this one is a little more intricate and has a harder backbeat and a more complete track. Perfect features to flow on the style of the song with CyHi. This tape has so many standout tracks its ridiculous man.

Excellent use of the Maze sample on this one.

18. Black Pride ft. Miloh Smith & Kissielee, Prod by Jeff Leahr, Tec Beatz, & Space Jonze - The final track is a great outro track and again uses a very innovative hook to tie up the tape. This is the only beat that isn't really a standout, and it still isn't that bad, just more simple mellow feel but it still works well as the last track

FYI thats the beat from "Keep Rising To The Top" by Doug E. Fresh. Knowing where the samples come from is a good way to explore older hip hop and music in general.

I'm glad someone else thinks this an outstanding mixtape. I told my boys about it and they replied with "who"
