Tony Yayo has released three mixtapes in the last few months and I guess it's time we reviewed one. The consensus in hip hop has been that Yayo is least talented member of G-Unit. I would have to agree with that statement (except for when 50 is really trying hard to suck a rapping). Scanning through these last three tapes you will stumble upon lazy efforts, off beat rapping, weak lyrics, but some traces of originality. Most of the songs on these tapes had decent beat selection but then Yayo just destroyed them with his rapping. Not only that but there was really only one song I like out of all three of them: They Hate. On these mixtapes his raspy voice makes for a somewhat gangster sound, but his lyrics and delivery ruin what little he has going for him. He is just not a good rapper and bores me most of the time. These tapes weren't all bad; there were some decent tracks that I don't really care to name, but they were there. However, most were bad and just plain boring. Also, I am not sure why the fuck Cormega would do a track with him. It really disappointed me as did Cormega's off beat verse on it (one of the worst I've ever heard from him in terms of delivery). Even though Yayo still puts out mostly garbage I still download his shit in hopes that he might step it up and produce some listenable music, but he always lets me down. Die hard G-unit fans will probably do everything they can to defend his laziness and sloppy delivery, but the reality is he is just not making good music and hasn't to the extent of my memory. One upset fan on Dat Piff said that this music put him to sleep, so I might think about playing tonight if I can't get to sleep before 12. Download this if you need some good bedtime stories, it might be a good alternative to counting sheep, 2/5.
