REVIEW - LADY LESHURR - FRIGGIN L



One of the UK's Brightest Urban stars much anticipated third mixtape Friggin L has dropped, Including her very own version of the Chris Brown track ‘Look at me now’ of which she did a cover video for prior to the mixtape release and this landed her on the American site Worldstar HipHop as well as seeing artists such as Lil Wayne and Trey Sonz showing their support and admiration of her talent.
 As usual  Lady Leshurr 
has given her ‘Shurrporters’ exactly what they were looking with a handful of beats where Lil Wayne has featured in- to a couple of UK bangers such as ‘Game Over’ by Tinchy Strider and ‘Monster Man’ by Giggs.
Lady Leshurr also displays her versatility during her mixtape as she spits, raps and sings on a selection of rap/hip-hop, grime and also bashment instrumentals.
Straight from the intro, Leshurr attacks the Rick Ross ‘B.M.F’ instrumental with her unorthodox double speed rapping showing her ability and what to expect from the rest of the mixtape very early.

‘They call me big Leesh, Martin Luther, Jason X, Freddy Kruger, I bring the monster out…’

‘Come touch mi nuh, touch my follow button nuh, click it up…’

‘I make his heart race, now he’s trying to run for me, he’s gunna get the martian, he’s gunna get the sparton…’

‘They know how to act when I arrive, give them an Oscar’

The above are some of the stand out lines within the mixtape that underline the progression from her prior mixtapes.
Friggin L finishes with ‘Friggin Ltro which is Lady Leshurr's version of an outro where she calls different artists within the UK’s urban scene and gets them to say  Friggin L with all outtakes included.
The only negative that is evident about the mixtape is the fact it is only 9 tracks long including the outro and introduction; though on a hole Friggin L is definitely worth listening to and Lady Leshurr's best mixtape so far lyrically and quality wise.

9/10 -
