"Rick Rozay "Black Dollar" discussion "


  

          


It will be on datpiff by the end of the day.
http://www.datpiff.com/Rick-Ross-Black-Dollar-mixtape.732049.html

I must say "Foreclosures" & "Money Dance" make me want to check it
https://soundcloud.com/rickyrozaymmg/rick-ross-feat-the-dream-money-dance

https://soundcloud.com/rickyrozaymmg/rick-ross-foreclosures

I don't like "Turn ya back"
https://soundcloud.com/rickyrozaymmg/rick-ross-feat-gucci-mane-meek-mill-whole-slab-turn-ya-back

and "she wanna f**k" lifts the hook (?) from "Don't say nuthin'" (The Roots) & namedrops The Pharcyde & Dilla...other than that, the track is so-so https://soundcloud.com/rickyrozaymmg/rick-ross-feat-august-alsina-she-wanna-fuck

the "Money & Powder" video is not good, the song also so-so, I'd rather hear Ross do the lush type songs (like foreclosures & money dance) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeyX2R66fMU

beats and the sound quality is good, I've heard 'official' albums mixed worse.

i've heard dozens, maybe hundreds, of 'mixtapes' that are essentially free albums (no dj drops, all original production, proper mixing)

iono why
but no other mainstream artists albums sound "big" anymore.

ross albums sound like major anticipated releases used to sound back in the day.

that beat reworking of brooklyns finest lit as hell too.
ross rode that shit crazy on the 1st verse.

God Forgives, I Don't had really amazing highs, but really bad lows. Mastermind was a lot more even, but it wasn't really entertaining. Hood Billionaire sucked. I thought Ross was done, tbh. Thought releasing two albums last year hurt him, but that it was a necessary L to keep MMG afloat since Wale was still working and since Meek was locked up. But he really brought it with this one.

Mastermind, while very cohesive, was a little too dark for most people. Hood Billionaire was just him yelling about coke on throwaway tracks for an hour. This sounds more like what people enjoy about Ross. Also, having Wale writing for him doesn't hurt some songs.

Streets won't let me chill.
