Sometimes thangs is messed up.......,
By Enlightened "Both Eyes Closed, see what u don... (Atlanta Georgia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Non Fiction (Audio CD)
Check this.....I wanted this cd bad. When I finally got it last Christmas i was sorta disappointed. I had particularly liked Mausberg AKA The Realest ( not the fake Tupac impersonator) on his appearances on various albums such as Top Dogg by Snoop, Rhythmalism by Quik and some others. I liked his flow and the way he rapped and his voice was also tight. His style is a cross between Eightball, Scarface, and Styles from The LOX. At first I thought this cd was a bad way for him to go out. The beats weren't so great when I listened to it first either. But slowly as I gave it more spin it grew on me substantially. DJ Quik came through for this man. The beats aren't really his signature beats but he molds his style around the rapper which is a SURE sign of a great producer. Nice laid back tracks is the epitome of the West Coast sound and it is excellently represented here.Enough about Quik this is Mausberg's cd. While lyrically Mausberg is nothing eyebrow amazing. His style is captivating and his voice is very good. He is a lifestyle/ battle rapper as witnessed by the first song Non- Fiction. Almost all the tracks are bumpable to the fullest. Guests appearances are kept to a minimum which means there is enough Mausberg on here so that it doesnt feel like a compilation. Guests include DJ Quik, Suga Free, James Debarge, Dresta the Gangsta, Playa Hamm, AMG, and 2nd II None. Sensational songs include Non-Fiction, Get Nekkid, Tha Truth Is, Y2K, Any Way U Want To, Busta, I Can Feel That, Bank On It, Mushrooms, My Life Goes On and We Aint Done Yet( which sports a true chorus; "how can you roll with all that disrespect in California and not get wet?", That is real) Unfortunately that lifestyle claimed this promising rapper's life. It's a shame most folks have never even heard of him or knew he was a rapper that got killed. I was tempted to give this cd a classic 5 star rating but all in all it is not classic. The lyrical content is sorta lacking. It is still a very well done debut that will sadly be the last from this rapper. I recommend this cd if you like or love DJ Quik or if you are a West Coast fan, because it is sort of an acquired taste. But on the real a fantastic album and you should give it a try.

Yet another album with great DJ Quik production!,
By iLe (Helsinki, Finland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Non Fiction (Audio CD)
Mausberg, who has been as a guest in a couple of DJ Quik albums before hits us now with his solo album Non Fiction. And why wouldn't he. When over half of the tracks are produced by the one and only DJ Quik, solid beats and groovy tracks are quaranteed. My favorite track has to be Get Nekkid, which has awesome Quik beats and him also guesting. Other guest appearances include James DeBarge, Suga Free, AMG, Playa Hamm and 2nd II None among others. Lyrically the album is mostly gansta. To me, this album reminds a lot of The Konnectid Project, which also features Mausberg and Quik production. Sadly, this will be Mausberg's last album since he got killed earlier this year. So if you're into Quik's producing and would like to get the last glimpse of Mausberg's solid flow, be sure to get this album!

Classic Debut from the Top Dogg Mausberg -- R.I.P.,
By
This review is from: Non Fiction (Audio CD)
Mr. Mausberg, the 21 year old from Compton, delivered a great debut, a classic backed by DJ quik's prduction (on 10 songs - 5 songs by Sacc's) and cameo's by Quik's crew and a few others. His flow fits great over the super funky beats that he gets laced with. Has 2 songs that I skip but a number of high quality songs and about 4 classic tracks on here as well, this cd is a must have for rap fans, especially fans of the west coast rap.
#1 - 9 (f/ Squeek & Six Million) #2 - 9 #3 - 9 (f/ Dresta - great beat) #4 - 10 (classic f/ DJ Quik - great beat - about gettin' hoes naked) #5 - 10 (another classic f/ DJ Quik - great beat) #6 - 7 #7 - 9 (f/ Suga Free & James DeBarge - relaxing beat) #8 - 5.5 (f/ Six Million - my least favorite song on here) #9 - 10 (classic f/ DJ Quik - great beat -- about how they don't want anymore questions) #10 - 10 (classic about busta's - great beat again) #11 - 9 (f/ AMG, Hi-C) #12 - 9.5 (great song f/ 2nd II None {KK & D} & Playa Hamm) #13 - 9 (about eating mushrooms - talkbox by Quik) #14 - 6 #15 - 9.5 (about charging hoes for his d!*k) #16 - 7 (slower/deeper song) J. Burns -- b. 1979 d. 7/4/00 ---- Compton, CA *** R.I.P. *** COMPTON!!! check all my reviews
