Nuthin' to take seriously, just a mix tape., July 22, 1999

A fair showing for the overrated FunkMaster Flex. Could he have used more songs from Wu Tang or Mobb Deep? Geez...I can think of so many dope beats that he left out. This isnt a classic, 'cuz it can't be. I must admit that there are some head-noddin' cuts in there, but you could always buy the actual album that the beats came on. I always enjoy the "Hell on Earth" beat, but havin Erykah Badu over it? Kinda slaughtered the song. The decent head-nodders:
KRS-One over Instrumental. The inst. isnt spectacular, but KRS can flow over any beat
Mos Def over Instrumental. Mos Def is one of my favorites, and the beat was dope and fun.
Common over LA Times. Common rhymes superior on every cut he does, and this Xzibit beat wasnt too bad.
King Sun over Its Yourz. King Sun isnt anything special, just another WU descendant. Its Yourz has a dope beat though.
That S%*t peformed by Q-Tip & JD of SV. Just a relaxed song. Decent lyrics, decent beat.
Erykah Badu over Hell on Earth. Just cuz of the tight beat.
Shimmy Shimmy Ya performed by ODB. A hilarious song, makes me laugh every time. Good song, not to take seriously.
Jump Around performed by House of Pain. One of the best party songs ever. Gets me jumpin' everytime.
OPP peformed by Naughty by Nature. Decent song. A good addition.
Note: Flex missed too many dope emcees on the three installments of the mix tape. Someone should do one with all the underground, dope, talented emcees, and forget about adding Noreaga, DMX or Jay-Z on a mix tape. You should be able to rhyme to make it onto a decent mix tape.

I can't actually believe the other reviewers on this web page when they say this CD is just OK!!! I think it's absolutely brilliant, consisting of an amazing variety of different styles of hip-hop. If you ever get the chance to buy this album, I strongly suggest you do and you won't regret it. Trust me, I'm a hip-hop expert! A great wide range of artists appear on this album such as; DMX, Busta Rhymes, Cam'Ron, Wu-Tang Clan, Keith Murray & Mos Def. There are also some great apperances from old skool artists such as; House of Pain, Naughty By Nature, Busy-Bee, Slick Rick, KRS-One, A Tribe Called Quest, Gang Starr & EPMD. The record has some fat scratching on the decks, shoutouts to the artists, excellent freestyling lyrics and great producing from the one and only Funk Flex!! Add this to your collection, as it is much better than the other mixtapes. I'm ghost! :-)
