Mixerr Album Reviews #1,031

This is Michael Mixerr. Today I will review Sir Mix A Lot - Swass.

Sir Mix A Lot brings out the best in Seattle rap and hip hop with the Swass album from 1989 on Warner Bros./Nastymix. Although Swass is the pinnacle of Seattle rap, Swass contains some hip hop influenced sounds. Cool hip hop influenced beats are heard throughout Swass. The production is heavy ridden with bass. Sir Mix A Lot also brings out the best in Seatown Funk on this album. Swass is a Seatown classic liked among both old and new fans of Sir Mix A Lot.

My Hooptie was the buzzing single back in the day. It had everyone on the dance floor inside clubs. The track was a brilliant choice for a single. It proved to be a hit across radio stations nationwide on radio waves. The track dominated radio waves at one time. My Hooptie had all the freaks and players dancing. 

On I Got Game, Sir Mix A Lot drives around in his hooptie all over Seattle all day where he goes out to pick as many freaks as he can. It's a great driving cut. Sir Mix A Lot is not a new player to this game.

Gortex is a tight humorous rap track about the Cotex brand of tampons. The lyrics are what makes Gortex humorous. A light touch of humor makes Gortex hilarious yet odd. Don't get me wrong. Gortex is funny. 

I rate this album, Swass, 5/5*****!
