REVIEW: MC EIHT - KEEP IT HOOD EP


It is very seldom in hip hop where a veteran mc/rapper can come back with critical acclaim and release a project that can hang with what is relevant still today. Aaron Tyler aka Mc Eiht releases a 7 track EP for the fans as an appetiser before he drops Which Way Is West?, which he is working on with Dj Premier. And also to continue where he left off on Kendrick Lamar's M.A.A.A City feature.

Eiht has not lost his charm and his trademark "geah" which makes for a great recording.

Produced in its entirety by Austrian producer Brenk Sinatra. And features turntable scratches by Dj Premier.

THE REIGN has Eiht flowing over the track like he has not been gone for that long, it feels like he has been her forever. Dj Premiers scratching adds a dope feeling to the track.

BIGG has got a bit of that west cost bounce to it. Very soulful production with vocal snippets in the hook and scratches makes for a Wow moment when u listen to this track. Mc Eiht is the rappers, rapper.

811 is that head nodding track that you just bump when you just chilling with some brews and bud. Love the add libs. This is so 90's - gotta love it man!

The tracks are good so no need to press the skip or fast forward button here.

Producer Brenk Sinatra beats are diverse and not all sounding the same.

Yes I love it and I am sure you will too.

Avid fans of Mc Eiht and C.M.W would enjoy this abum. So for now we just have to be content with these dope 7 tracks till we get to hear Which Way Is West?

Remember Its All About The beat!
