The day has finally arrived! The 6th Man King Pin has returned to wreck shop on the culture for the second time this year, and he ain’t leaving none of you hating motherfucking alive to talk about it! Let’s go!
So, this is the latest EP release by 6th Man’s own The Bad Seed, featuring S.Tewe on production! With seven fresh tracks to sink your teeth into!
Right off the bat, we’re talking production. Now, I already covered a handful of these singles when they dropped, but after listening to the whole project, it’s clear that Seed’s intentions are to bring back that unfiltered, raw, 90’s-2000’s Hip Hop back! The era he started in and the era most have tried to replicate but few have gotten right.
We’re talking that old-fashioned, no-nonsense, no-gimmick hip hop beats with the crisp and banging bass, the slick and smooth instrumentals, and the aura of a titan up in this bitch!
So many cats these days are so overstimulated and desensitised to the ways of the past that they think if a record doesn’t have 1000 samples at once or the most twisted distortions or the most fucked-up lyrics that it ain’t eye-catching anymore. It makes me sad to see that the new gen can’t even fuck with the 90’s sound no more because it’s ’boring’ or ‘simple’, but man, this is even more reason why THIS album is a must-listen!
It’s a study into the golden era (one that Seed actually participated in), and producer S.Tewe has the mastery and the technique to revive that sound in its truest form and bring it to the masses, and if you ain’t fucking with this one, then can you really say you fuck with REAL hip hop?
Now, what I’m about to say next will only cause controversy if you AIN’T a real hip hop fan like that! If you are, then this should be a no-brainer. But let’s be real, The Bad Seed is the purest form of NY represent since Jay-Z! He’s the closest thing we have to prime-era Hov, and he’s putting in the work!
The game doesn’t have anyone as brutally honest, as raw, someone who truly lives that ‘I don’t give a fuck’ attitude like he does! This man, from his studio songs to his posts and comments on social media, is the same cat! There’s no ‘MC SEED’ and ‘ PUBLIC SEED’, they’re the same person! So that’s why whenever I listen to his verses, I can relate and I can be proud to review his shit because he’s that guy for real!
His punchlines are ruthless, his wordplay is honest and heartfelt. He told the whole world that he has late bills— nah, really late! How he can’t afford to go on vacation or to accept getting food stamps! This man is THE REAL OG.
The real one, tells it how he is. He knows, what’s the point of putting your trip to Dubai on Afterpay and bragging when you don’t have it like that? He tells it like he sees it, and that’s why he’s a hip hop national treasure.
Once again, no features needed! Just him rocking shit solo, 7 tracks to show you the new generation what real rap sounds like and to remind the slacking old gen to step up!
If you ain’t fucking with this one, then you ain’t a real one. It’s as simple as that— 6th man forever!
