For you lazy fuckers!!! LOL!
Damn... I know you guys are having trouble deciding what to buy today, being that both Crunk Hits Vol. 3 and Hyphy Hitz are both dropping...
And yes, that was sarcasm.
I’m not going to touch on Crunk Hits 3 - that shit’s out of my jurisdiction. But being that TVT is also capitalizing on the hyphy movement, I guess we’ll take a second to speak on it.
Despite its retarded title, and everything else you would associate with an album called Hyphy Hitz, the album actually has some decent cuts on it. And while Crunk Hits Vol. 3 has a bunch of shit like “Chicken Noodle Soup” and “I’m N Luv (Wit A Stripper)” that people are already mad burnt out on, Hyphy Hitz (even without saying it out loud, it still feels retarded just typing those words) is actually comprised of songs that a good portion of the country is unfamiliar with. Although just about everyone in the Bay knows about Nump, it’s likely that anyone from NY has ever heard of him, and the same probably goes for Dem Hoodstarz or The Team.
There’s definitely some bullshit on the album -- the Babyface Assassins song is straight up ca-ca and both of the A’z songs are pretty weaksauce (although “Yadadamean” would’ve had some potential if those cats had stepped their lyrical game up a little). And what the fuck are Da Musicianz doing on here?
Listening to an album of nothing but fright house synthesizer beats and hearing the word “scraper” repeated on 20 different songs definitely has the potential to get old pretty quick, but if you don’t already own all of these albums, it’ll make a nice a little addition to throwing the itunes on shuffle. And if you can’t get down to Mac Dre's “Feeling Myself” (which is probably his biggest hit other than “Too Hard For The Radio” and is still pretty much unheard to most people outside of the West Coast), you’re a certified dick.
But even as I write this, I’m well aware that somewhere in the vicinity of zero percent of you will be copping this album. I guess I just wanted to let you know that surprisingly enough, it’s not really as terrible as you might think.
