Mixtape Review: 88-Keys - Adam's Case Files

I reviewed the new 88-Keys mixtape for Nodfactor.com. Read it here and leave your thoughts on the album in the comments.

I know Ivan placed Keys on his list of top 50 hip-hop producers at About.com, and I'm certainly a fan of his production as well. Has anyone else listened to it?D

    I feel the exact same way about it as you do. I think "cuddle Bums" Is a dope track, outside of that there are a few that are decent. I know he is a great producer, but great producers find ways to make the tracks fit the people they work for. It shows versatility, guess it just wasn't happening.

    Gav: He is a very good producer, but the emcee selection on the tape was poor.
    I like the guest list for the full length though.
    I was actually pleasantly surprised by Keys' rapping on the tape.
    Apparently he's going to emcee a few tracks on the Death of Adam.
