MIXTAPE/ALBUM: G5 CLIVE :: "A BATHING TAPE"
WELCOME TO ANOTHER EDITION OF GOADOME TALK REVIEWS DONE BY MYSELF, DJ VIC MASE (ASLUMBLOGMILLIONAIRE.BLOGSPOT.COM). THIS REVIEW TO ME IS SPECIAL. LET ME FIRST SAY THAT I KNOW WAY AM I BIASED TO G5 CLIVE, DESPITE THE TIGHT BOND HIM AND I HAVE. I GAVE HIS TAPE A FAIR REVIEW JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHERS WITH MY OPINIONS, CRITIQUES, AND PRAISE.
WITH THAT BEING SAID, I FEEL LIKE G5 HAS ELEVATED HIS SKILLS IN A TREMENDOUS WAY. FROM GODZILLA CHRONICLES TO SUMMA OF ’88 TO THE SOCIAL CLASS AND NOW WITH A BATHING TAPE EACH TAPE HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY BETTER IN ALMOST EVERY ASPECT. FROM BEATS CONTRIBUTED BY ARAFAT YATES OF THE M1 PLATOON (A G5 FAVORITE), THE D.M.G’S DERON, TORONTO’S FUNDAMENTAL AND THE BIG HOMIE CHUCK LAWAYNE, TO ILL BARS AND VERSATILE FLOW (RYU/HAYUKIN/ YALL NIGGAS AINT NO KIN TO ME), A BATHING TAPE IS A SOLID ADDITION TO ALL OF THE WONDERFUL MIXTAPES RELEASED FROM THE DMV THUS FAR IN ’09. KNOWING HOW CLIVE SPITS, I SOMEWHAT EXPECTED TO HEAR A LOT OF SIMILARITIES FROM HIS PREVIOUS TAPES BUT HE SWITCHED UP THE FLOW BEAUTIFULLY ON A FEW TRACKS SUCH AS DAMAJA DE COLUMBIA WITH THE CATCHY ASS HOOK, ILL METAPHOR FOR DAMAJA, AND THE REMINISCING OF THE LATE NOTORIOUS B.I.G WITH THE “SPIT YOUR GAME-ESK” FLOW.
ONLY A COUPLE OF ISSUES I HAD WITH THE TAPE WAS THAT FACT THAT SOME OF THE TRACKS DIDN’T HAVE THE MOST PRECISE EQ’ING ON G5’S VOCALS WITH SOME SOUNDING LOUDER THAN THE BEAT OR SOFTER THAN THE BEAT, WHICH IS MINOR BUT I EXPECTED CLIVE TO BE A NAZI WITH THE PRODUCTION OF THIS TAPE AND THE OTHER ISSUE BEING THAT THE INTERLUDES AND THE INTROS SAMPLES TO SOME TRACKS WERE NOT AS CRACK AS GODZILLA CHRONICLES BUT AGAIN VERY MINOR, I UNDERSTAND WHY HE DID IT AND IM JUST BEING NIT-PICKY. I LOVED THE REVERSAL OF THE WORDS ON THE HOOK FOR “HOW YOU WANT IT.” THAT SHIT WAS JA NICE, AND THE COLLABS ON THIS JOINT WAS WELL CHOSEN. THE CLIENTELE BASED OUT OF VCU RIPPED “FIGHT NIGHT” AND CAMMY DEATHSTRIKE PUT ME ON ANOTHER LEVEL WITH HER CONTRIBUTIONS. A LOT MORE CROSS OVER APPEAL WITH FUNKY SOUNDS AND CATCHY HOOKS ON “BLACK TEE JOHNY QUEST” (D.CEEEE IN THIS BITCHH ) AND “SUPERTRAMP” (WITH THE GO-GO DRUMS SETTING THE BASS LINE) ALL IN ALL, THIS TAPE GETS A SOLID 4.5 OUT OF 5 BOOTS FROM DJ VIC MASE FOR GOADOME TALK. PERSONAL FAVORITES: “BLACK TEE JOHNNY QUEST”, “SUPERTRAMP”, “DAJAMA DE COLUMBIA” KEEP PUTTING ON FOR UPTOWN AND THE ENTIRE DMV G5!
LYRICS: 4.5
PRODUCTION: 4.0
FLOW (TRACK TO TRACK): 4.5
TOTAL WEIGHT: 4.5 BOOTS
