FABOLOUS - THE SOUL TAPE 2 |
Fabolous drops his sequel to the Soul Tape, been a minute
since we heard from him and he delivers a strong effort. Not shy on the
features on this tape with appearances from J. Cole, Pusha T, Troy Ave, Trey
Songz, Wale and Joe Buddens. Very rarely do you get a mixtape or album you can
just hit play and enjoy. I am very picky myself and I have to admit I enjoyed
listening to this mixtape from beginning to the end. Reminds me of a modern Blueprint
album, laid back beats with good lyrics and subject matter. The content lives
up to the title, with plenty of soul samples and the overall feel of the
project. You may not hear these cuts at your local club while you’re getting
down with your ratchet ass but it provides a soundtrack to either cruise to or
enjoy your favorite herbal treat.
Fabolous’ version of diced pineapples is a must listen,
recruiting Trey Songz and Cassie. Fab drops some gems about relationships with
the opposite sex. In my honest opinion, much better take than the original.
Also features Trey dropping some rhymes instead of the usual crooning on the
tracks. On “Want You Back”, Fab tackles failed relationships and the karma over
screwing over someone good. Joe Buddens and Teyana Taylor assist on the track.
This makes for a good way to end the tape.
If you are a Fabolous fan then you’ll be satisfied, rather
than jumping on whatever is relevant today with music trends he stays in his
own lane and delivers a strong project. If you’re looking for something to fill
your music void then download this tape and enjoy.
Stand out tracks include: For The Love, Diamonds, B.I.T.E.,
Louis Vuitton, Life Is So Exciting, Diced Pineapples and Want You Back.
My rating 4.5 out of 5
Until the next time, Stay Fresh!
