Mixerr Album Reviews #1,345

This is Michael Mixerr. Today I will review Playa D - Something 2 Ride 2.

Something 2 Ride 2 is smooth Midwest rap over G-Funk from Omaha, Nebraska. Both sides of this cassette have killer tracks. Playa D will remind you of Tech N9ne in his early days. Playa D is very similar to Too $hort and Tech N9ne. The smooth G-Funk sounds give Playa D a smooth pimp type of flow. Something 2 Ride 2 is something for the ballers and shot callers to ride to.

Playa D must have been inspired by Too $hort when he wrote Something 2 Ride 2. Something 2 Ride 2 is a track geared towards car boppers and car freaks. Playa D has a smooth pimp type of flow all throughout the track. Smooth G-Funk sounds can be heard on Something 2 Ride 2.

Let Me Ride samples Let Me Ride by Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg. Playa D must have been inspired by both Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg when he wrote Let Me Ride. Playa D has a smooth pimp type of flow all throughout the track unsurprisingly. It’s no surpise that those smooth G-Funk sounds can be heard on Let Me Ride. After all this song was recorded in 1997.

Driftin is a track that calms the album/single down into a smooth subtle mood. Smooth is one word to describe the track called Driftin.

I rate this single, Something 2 Ride 2, 4/5****.
