Young Droop- "1990-Hate"
------------Young Droop is out of Merced, California. The first time I heard him was on the Lowdown cd "Valley Of Death." And let me tell you he has one of the best flows. I instantly thought of Brotha Lynch Hung's older stuff when I heard first heard Young Droop. They both have awesome flows. But Young Droop's voice sounds nothing like Brotha Lynch Hung's. But he might flow even better and he has a lot of potential to be a big name in the underground rap scene.
___This cd is gangsta rap but it has more laid back beats. The beats sound more like something from the Bay then from Sacramento. Young Droop raps about typical subjects that go along with gangsta rap but its all over soft beats compared to stuff like Brotha Lynch Hung and X-Raided which is more harder beats. I like the combination of nice, laid back beats and fast rapping with good lyrics. The lyrics from Young Droop are good but sometimes he raps so fast I can't tell exactly what he is saying. But even if his lyrics were bad his flow more than makes up for it.
___There are 20 cuts on in total with 3 being skits. The number of tracks is good since all of them are great. In fact the only track I don't care for is "Mr. Hata Playa." I didn't like the beat, it was just too soft and compared to the rest of the cd it is second rate. But tracks like "Killa Instinctz," "Kriminal Livin," "Calculate Da Rezultz," "Lust Ta Pull Da Trigga," and "Evidence Of A Murda" will make you not want to stop playing this cd. But even the songs I didn't mention are all good. And there is good number of featured artists to keep a good variety throughout the cd.
___After listening to this cd there is no doubt in my mind this is the best cd of 1999. You must go out and buy this cd. It might be hard to find (I had to order it over the Internet) but try to get it at all costs. I have no complaints about this cd. It is just a great cd and should be enjoyed from anyone who likes rap. I remember reading about this cd and hearing how good it is and when I finally got it I realized what everyone was talking about. So I am telling to go out and get this cd and you will see what I am talking about.
Rating: 9.9/10
