Let's get this straight Versa aint playing and I guarantee after one listen to this mixtape you will understand why! Hosted by Dice (Hoods Hottest) & consisting of a selection of the cream of the crop of UK Artists,a few US collabos and a few talented Up and comers doing their thing lyrically and vocally with Mr Versa handelling Beat duties over all 16 tracks and he does one hell of a job!
It seems as if Versa happens to know exactly what Artists should go over which beat and this is where this project excels over a lot of producer based projects which tend to feel like a collection of tracks rather than a showcase of what the producer actually brings and Versa shows the difference between a BeatMaker and a Producer with this.
Versa manages to fully set a mood and a tone with each of his instrumentals and whether its a sample based or sample free beat Versa handles things competently using different instruments on just about every track whic range from Menacingly dark'Raw freestyle' ,Anthemic 'Jaja City', to Futeristic club bangers like'London City' even covering Grime 'Witheld' and you can tell time has been spent on mastering which is often overlooked.
Its hard to pick out the hardest tracks on here as every one goes hard,but do check 'Raw Freestyle' feat Skrilla Kid Villain,'Lizzy' feat Kidderachi ,'Leave me alone' feat Propane, 'We go hard' feat Jaja Soze,A.P(D-Block),and Tempman as well as the futuristic bounce on 'No intro no hook' feat Lefty London and flips plus the thought provoking 'I have a dream' feat Haze
All in all this is one of the hardest UK producer mixtapes period!
A Solid 9/10. Download this Now and Drop Versa a Fiver if you see him as its worth it!
