On The Come Up: The Spitzwell Brotherz present "The Premium Blend" Mixtape




What up everybody!!

You know, a couple of weeks ago, I dropped a post entitled "Where have all the Emcees gone." Well, I know were two of them were...on the f'n grind.

TheSpitzwell Brotherz bring to us the Premium Blend Mixtape. Now I'm not one to judge a book by it's cover, but just by looking at the cover art, it's easy to see that Frank and EP are not dropping a run of the mill, McDonald's coffee operation with this music.






The track listing is ridiculously insane; a grand total of 26 (24 with intro/outro). This is more than enough to make Juan Valdez take a closer look at what's in their cup. All coffee puns aside, this is the type of mix a lot of dedicated hiphop heads have been waiting for. Spitzwell tend to keep it on the path they like, and that's the key that makes this mix the premium blend they intended it to be.



Every song, from the pseudo single sounding "Everybody Else," blending their lyrics with the likes of T-Pain, to bangers like "Give me your love" show the complete confidence Frank and EP have in each other to destroy the other's verse. That's a technique that you "(insert ridiculous name here) Man" rap groups need to learn. A track like "Keep the Change" is refreshing to hear. Spitzwell give a very insightful, dope perspective on that fine specimen at the bar....yea, the one you were just about to buy a drink nigga. Take heed to the Franky tirade at the end negros and niggas alike: you could learn somethin'. I'm just sayin'...



The Spitzwell Brotherz Present...The Premium Blend mixtape is very fun to listen to, and you really won't find yourself board to tears, like you might find on other mixtapes. If you're reading about it on this blog, understand that it's up here for a reason. The Premium Blend is a free download, so I have no idea why anyone wouldn't pick this gem up and replace a couple of those dusty ass CDs you got in your car.



Go get it here.
