Music To Ride To... Vol. 2





Hi, I'm Dubby Hosted By DJ Ill Will













Skeptical. Describes my initial feelings to giving this mixtape a chance, before writing it off as a clichĂ©  introduction. Then came the music. I shuffled my way unto the song "Muh Fuckin Best," which had a Soulful style to it- sampling "People Get Ready." Dubby seemed to have a creative yet simple way of rhyming, as if clearly expressing the truth in him. Other hot tracks on the Hi, I'm Dubby mixtape are "Super Duper", "Rillo Remix", and "Wassup."

Orlando, FL born, 19 year old, Eric Thomas- stage name Dubby- picked up a mic at age 16 and hasn't put one down since. He has only one mixtape to show, but trust when I say plenty more is on the way. He produces his music out of Cincinnati, OH, which he now calls home.








DJ Drama & B.o.B May 25th Mixtape












ATL native, B.o.B aka Bobby Ray is already renown for his creative lyrics, beats, and numerous collaborations with big names. When it comes to his mixtapes it becomes of no difference. His new pre-album mixtape May 25th is creative in name, in which May 25 is the drop date of his most anticipated album B.o.B Presents: The Adventures of Bobby Ray.

Listening to even a couple tracks of the mixtape will send any Hip Hop lover into bliss. His beat themes so unique, with flows to match. If you grow weary of the usual "gun talk" that's played, then B.o.B provides an oasis. A terrific example would be a Kanye West produced track, "Fuck The Money" featuring Asher Roth, it's a must listen for anyone. This tease album plays its role in keeping you itching for the fix coming May 25.
