Mixerr Album Reviews #187

This is Michael Mixerr. Today I will review Took-N-Bone. Took-N-Bone was a one time Hip Hop group from Flint, Michigan in 1993 who had a cassette EP by same name of the group. The cassette itself was self-titled with 4 songs. This EP was released independently on TOR.

Basically Hit was a diss song towards The Dayton Family. It was an old school Hip Hop song. It had that feel. I have no clue as to why Took-N-Bone dissed TDF. Took-N-Bone even dissed TDF on This is 4 The Public, Dopest 1, and Dopest 2. Took-N-Bone dissed TDF all over the tape.
TDF did not respond until they released What's On My Mind? On Po' Broke Records and Relativity Records in 1994. TDF songs that dissed Took-N-Bone were Watch Yo Ass and Flint Niggaz Don't Play.

There is no Intro or an Outro which to me is really weird. But don't let my thoughts persuade you from buying this album. That is if you have the money because this tape goes for $200 nowadays.

To me Took-N-Bone was using outdated Hip Hop sounds by 90s standards. Which to me was a bit cookie cutter. I rate this self titled EP, 2/5**.
