This is Michael Mixerr. Today I will review Who Got Yo Back by Lil Sin.
First of all, I love the rock style bass guitar on Tha Game Done Changed. The drum programming is superb. Tha Game Done Changed is about music biz and life in general has changed. Use your brain and the game will be good to you.
The lovely jazz style grand piano notes are beautiful on the song Money Situations. Be careful who you trust you money with.
Love It Or Hate It explains that Lil Sin is here to stay whether you like it or not. Love It Or Hate features former BLVD Records artist Mr. Joshay with his southern twang. Ricé makes an appearance at the beginning of the song. To all you haters, Lil Sin is here to stay.
The fourth track is Free. This song was a hit back in San Antonio, Texas during 1998 to 2000. This song features both UGK members Bun B and Pimp C (R.I.P.) with their trill flows. Add that with extra bass and heavy guitars. This version of Free is the OG version and not the remixes from Livin'-N-Sin and My Secret which both dropped in 2000. The remixes features both UGK members Bun B and Pimp C (R.I.P.) as the original version did. Both versions are off the chain!
BLVD Funk is that club skating rink type of joint or at the club. It's all about that BLVD Records sound. Straight outta San Antone! We got that BLVD Funk in yo trunk! Something to bump and grind to.
Watch For Tha Slip has that crime detective action feel of theme music. Add that with the drama in the bass. Mrs. Good Pussy has that upbeat jazz walking viola bass to the song. I love the bass and the drum programming! This is one of those songs to have sex to. It's really baby making music to sum it all up.
The next track is the title track called Who Got Yo Back. You can hear the sounds an alien UFO weird loopy sound, the Chinese zither, a Koto, a tambourine, and bells. The song is about who really has your back and who doesn't have your back. Be careful who you make friends with and who you're friends are.
Rollin' Stone features King 13 (R.I.P.). He was a local producer/artist from San Antonio as well. They talk about their fathers on this one. This is a fast paced upbeat song.
Sin To Win is one of the best tracks on the album along with Free, Who Got Yo Back, Watch For Tha Slip, BLVD Funk, and Mrs. Good Pussy. In the beginning, you can hear the birds chirping. It reminds me of summer. This track is perfect. This track is about the topic of sin. It's about sin really. Sin is only human nature, playa.
Fly has that 70s feel of funk to it. Fly features the the duo NOLA (Knuckleheadz). They are from New Orleans, Louisiana. I can hear a hawk in the track. Trapped In The Balla features BLVD Records label mates Mr. Joshay and Lil Sin. SoufField gets mentioned too. (That's Lil Sin's label right now.)
Danga is another underrated track along with Fly. The song gets fast paced real quick. The last song is Whateva It Takes which features Denise White.
I rate this album, Who Got Yo Back, 5/5*****!!
