MAF Feat. Masta Ace – 'Where I'm From'

By on August 25, 2010 in Daily Mathematics, Uncategorized

I got the call from the homie Clark Kent. Told me this young boy was up next. MAF. Brooklyn. You already know how I feel about that. Masta Ace is ALWAYS a bonus. Plus, the video is tight as it’s a whose who extravaganza. Remember his name. And remember A.T.F.

Props.

    Hmmmm… OK as an intro but MCs need to up their lyrical game beyond Where I’m from– this is sorta Big Noyd-like except a Prodigy guest verse >>> Masta Ace and I ** like ** Ace but he’s real hit or miss.

    Also, “My Brother My Ace”–

    FACT: GREATEST SLEPT-ON BROWNSVILLE CLASSIC– Smoothe da Hustler. (I count Blahzay East New York.)

    CJ: how much did Jay cop from this, or were they just thinking along the same lines, same time?

    I cant lie when I first heard the beat I said, “Ah shit, some old school shit.” Lol. You know, stiff drums and lazy sample chops.

    But then, the nigga said Brownsville, so he gets a pass. lol
    And then, the motherfucker mentioned CO-OP, which is a long overdue acknowledgement.

    When were you guys born. Old school beats? You’re missing something. Do you mean they’re not using autotune or something? I’d love to grasp your view of the latest beats…but based on what you’ve said so far I’m nervous about your response.

    Anyway, for the grown ups: Nice beats, tight production, lovely strings and good rhymes – Masta Ace on point as ever. Who said hit or miss? Learn your history.
