OG season - light review

[GrimmyGrimGrim]

Reviewed OG season earlier, have a read if you've got it or consider getting it.
Fuck it just read it anyway

www.grimespot.co.uk

first review i've ever done so i'd appreciate some feeback, no homes

[RIP Jakey]

If you assume the mixtape is 10 tracks long and you have 11 bonus tracks, this is the best release ever to come from grime.

lol u can't assume that, you've gotta take em all into account.

in my opinion Axiom>>>>>>>OG Season.

(no sends cos i like ur blog in general)

[FG]

yeah man, not a bad review, there's some detail there

I have to object to some of the comments about littles and p-money being relative newcomers, and OGs have been in the pipeline for longer than some might think, but in the context of the general review that's minor really.

The comparison to Axiom was quite a nice idea as well, even if you do talk about 'what if' scenarios

No sendage btw - in all a decent review, props

yeah i know i was just relating it to Axiom, saying that those 10 tracks I picked rivalled Axiom, then you have the other 11 as a bonus.
cheers man appreciated

Fullygrown do you go to Exeter uni?

true true but comparing them to Jendor etc they are fairly fresh. i might edit it a bit lol

[FG]

yeah man I do as well

Got some next essay to hand in tomorrow, but I prefer browsing the forum tbh

[GrimmyGrimGrim]

don't wanna hi jack my own thread but do you know anyone from lafrowda? it's something like that, my mate lives there. apparently they're the worst ends in the uni lol

Yeah man i get what ur sayin do u reckon, if instead of goin for 20 tracks with some filler Artists put the best tracks on their mixtapes, say 9 -12, it would be accepted by grime fans?

Cos i reckon that'd b big but people would probly complain about what they're gettin for their money.

What were the feelings about Axiom being 9 tracks long? I cant even remember.
I've never heard anyone complain that 9 tracks + 1 bonus wasn't enough because the quality was so good.
Grime fans are just like any other fans, we just want good music.
Quality ____>>> Quantity.

People should definately look into doing 9-12 track Cds with consistent quality

yeah ive been there before it was depressing as fuck.
i couldn't share a toilet with girls, fuck that.
my mate in portsmouth shares toilets but it's done between sexes, so you wouldnt be afraid to destroy it lol

[Demos]

nice review

[charma]

off topic still but im going plymouth uni in sept.

quite near exeter i think...

[Blacksterz]

hmm fairplay for writing a review and all. Wouldn't agree with your rating, but ah well we can't all enjoy the same stuff equally

[Carter]

nice review

Not a Carter review though...........

Nice review, Ill cop based on what you've said when I get paid on Monday then we'll see whats going down :D

[TRU_G]

I get what you mean when talking about it only have 10 tracks

Trouble is, everybody i spoken to has different favourite tracks off this CD

You know they say one mans trash is another mans treasure, so you could take some tracks off, but that would effect other peoples opinions of the CD

[Major]

axiom ep is sick but overated by this forum

take 2 tracks off each off the tunnel visions >>>>> axiom


i havnt heard o.g season yet in 2 minds whether to cop i dont want a cd full of freestyles...

That proves how good the CD was Wiley's too hit and miss.

Axiom EP>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Best of Tunnel Vision

[FG]

Have to disagree with that

The only song off a Tunnel Vision that could be put on an album, without shame, is 'Marijuana' on 6 with Big Fris. Massive tune

I think Axiom is a tad overrated, but nevertheless it was easily one of the best releases of last year

Axiom >>>>> All Tunnel Visions combined

[Demos]

Not a Carter review though...........

loool

wheres urs??!?!?!

Tonight or tomorrow morning lol

..Ears' new one is just as whack as his first one, and that's coming from probably his biggest (and only) fan on here..

LOOL i'm a fan still, but this mixtape is so shit, i preferred his first one still

[Quality Control]

LOOL i'm a fan still, but this mixtape is so shit, i preferred his first one still

..true i guess there was at least a couple good tunes on the first one

..only worthwhile Ears songs (besides his freestyles which are always sick):
- Gun Man
- Battle Riddim
- Our Town
- Lights Out
- Don't Need You
- We Ain't Got Time
- Happy Dayz

..and Gun Man and Battle Riddim probably are technically freestyles.. name some more if i've missed any

[Carter]

**Looks at Ears mixtape still in the plastic**

..he uses those bars a few times from what i remember, but you're thinking of "It's Not A Game"

[Demos]

..he uses those bars a few times from what i remember, but are you talking about "It's Not A Game"?

nah its not on any of his mixtapes

[Quality Control]

nah its not on any of his mixtapes

..the "brain wont heal" bars are used on the hook of It's Not A Game plus it's produced by Lewi White..

[Carter]

LOL I just bought a load of mixtapes...........and you lot have crushed one for me already

[Demos]

dont think its that song, gimme 20 minutes and i'll upload it, coz its on my other computer

[Quality Control]

LOL I just bought a load of mixtapes...........and you lot have crushed one for me already

..at least we saved you the disappointment of putting it on fully expecting it to be good, especially after the quite epic sounding intro

[Carter]

You know I like that...............Carter loves the misery:D

[Quality Control]

..from what i remember "Under Manners" is good aside from the hook and the one produced by Rude Kid is aight, can't even remember the names of any others tho

[Demos]

..his flow brought something completely new to grime, it's just as good as Ghetto's (IMO) but completely different. If only he was able to make a proper song/mixCD he'd be up there with the very best

[Carter]

Yeah Ears was big but Jammer fucked it up........I think? lol

i agree, he needs to go to the studio with some better producers and put together a proper mixtape.

[ALM]

ears is the scenes biggest waste of talent

[Retrofreak]

Always thought New Era sounded like a Dizzee track.

[Quality Control]

Yeah Ears was big but Jammer fucked it up........I think? lol

..he had bare backing from good producers but the beats were all shit, swear down they must have just chucked their throw-away beats his way instead of in the Recycle Bin..

..i think the only reason he didn't live up to the hype is his inability to compile a coherent CD.. if Breathe Of Fresh Ears was just full of beats he'd laced for freestyles it'd have been disgusting

[emirg]

is chinny chin the one that was on LOTM1 mixcd?

[Carter]

did anyone get a purple front cover on their ogz cd? lol

['nuum general]

ears was effed on the neckle camp cd. Also whats gully rainjah up too as he was hype

[whats_the_score?]

did anyone get a purple front cover on their ogz cd? lol

You got Riko's mixtape yet?

[Carter]

You got Riko's mixtape yet?

Nah just Ghetto, Dimples, OGz & Ears,

[me!!!]

Nice review. I've wanted this for ages and tbh would buy it just for dot rotten alone, let alone jendor and the rest.

[Jay05]

Ears appears to do mixtapes purely for the sake of it.

Im sure with some guidance he could make a big cd

[GrimmyGrimGrim]

he should sign for eskibeat, get some decent beats behind him

..he had shitloads of support from bare respected figures in grime when his first mixcd dropped. unfortunately i just don't think he's a good "artist", but i still think we need him back in the scene as an MC showering down sets and freestyles..
