(UNTITLED 007)

I can still remember the first time I discovered this man. It was with the album ‘BLEU MAGIC’ and after that, he climbed to the very top of producers to look out for, and he hasn’t disappointed yet! And with this new release, he’s reminding everyone why he deserves that top placement! Let’s talk about it!

This is the brand-new album by powerhouse producer DeevoDaGenius! With this project, he brings to the table 14 new tracks and 26 minutes featuring the insane roster of 

-BlueHillBill

-Ea$tside $hee$h

-Kil The Artist

-Monday Night

-Elcamino

-Estee Nack

-Borirock

-Brother Tom Sos

-TEGA

-FNM MOOK

Immediately, the first thing I noticed and fell in love with was how this album feels like a classic 90’s mixtape! I’m talking about tracks that are quick-paced, short, and yet impactful and full of flavour! I can’t help but be reminded of projects like 

-AmeriKKKas Most Wanted (Ice Cube)

-Illmatic (Nas)

-The Chronic (Dr Dre)

Not necessarily in similar sounds but in the construction and feel! In the same way as those legendary projects, we see Deevo tap into his creativity more than ever, worried only about bangers after banger and letting not only the beat speak for itself but the artists he’s entrusted with doing their job! 

None of this pretentious over-produced bullshit a lot of people like to fuck with these days, thinking if they add a thousand layers per track, it will increase in quality. For me, nothing proves a producer’s skill more than when he’s stripped back, working with a small handful of sounds and samples and turning them to gold!

That was how the best of the best did it back in the day, and I love he’s trying to inherit the same mentality as they did!

Every song is smooth, raw, rough around the edges, and most of all, organic. You can FEEL the love, effort, and energy put into these instrumentals, and they all speak for themselves! These songs feel like one big luscious score with cinematic attributes and technique most will kill to have! 

Honestly, so many times I’ve had to check the Spotify app to see when exactly the song switched because I couldn’t hear any break or flip! That’s what you call mastery! He’s the 007 James Bond of this, packed with a Q, he’s proving to everyone that ‘Diamonds Are Forever’ and to ‘Never Say Never Again’. 

What am I supposed to criticise about this roster? I’ll give my next pay cheque in full to anyone who can honestly provide examples of the last time any of these men dropped a wack verse! It’s because it doesn’t exist! 

With every new verse I thought I heard my next favourite on the album! 

Whether you’re talking about that opening BlueHill verse on ‘WHITIN’ or fucking Estee’s verse on ‘CHRIS PAUL’ where he literally became one with the beat! 

Hell, Borirocks wavy verse on ‘AARON RODGERS?!’ That was absolutely ridiculous! Speaking of even Monday Night on ‘NOSEBLEEDS’ how he became possessed by that instrumental!

Every man on this project gave it their best and across these masterful beats you have a recipe for pure unattainable magic that only this group could hope to produce!

Overall, this is fucking fantastic. I can’t believe how good this really is! My words can’t really do justice to the quality itself! So go listen to it ASAP and experience the beauty for yourself!
