This is Michael Mixerr. I will review the self-titled NFTP cassette for an album. The self-titled NFTP cassette was released on Cut Foul Records from Flint. Think gangsta rap meets old school hip hop with this album when you listen to this cassette by NFTP. There are 4 or 5 tracks on this cassette.
NFTP is Niggaz From The Park from Sarvis Park on the West Side of Flint, Michigan. NFTP was from Moore Street as was Took-N-Bone. Sarvis Park was a hood not to be fucked with back then as Dayton Street was. NFTP made it very clear they did not like snitches. NFTP was a group composed of gang members from the city of Flint during that time period. Most members of the NFTP were Crips and some were Vice Lords. NFTP was a group composed of nine members. Big Dane, The Mac, Lil Mac, Big Rock aka Big Roc, A. Bone, Mackee aka The Undertaker (Mackeef), and others were members of NFTP. NFTP was cool with Took-N-Bone and DOA while almost no one else in Flint was at that time.
The first track is the intro which is The Undertaker's Dozen (13). The Undertaker's Dozen (13) is a short two and a half minute interlude about how The Undertaker killed 13 people and why his nickname is "13 Booties in a Basket". It's a never ending saga of The Undertaker committing random killing of unsuspecting victims. The Undertaker starts his first murder related killing on Friday the 13th. He killed women, men, and children. The Undertaker's Dozen (13) is about why Mackeef is The Undertaker. The mood of this interlude is very dark, sinister, foreboding, and brooding.
Mackee (The Mac) has a raspy distorted voice on Behind The Mac. I love the heavy bass and drum beats on Behind The Mac. Mackee made it clear he did not like Slobs (Bloods or in this case Flint Bloodstones) because he was a Crip. (Not to mention Spanish Cobras, Dayton Mafia, and Selby Hood.) Big Dane was a Crip too. The Mac can't stand the fact that there are too many snitches in Flint due to the fact that Flint is a small city of 100,000 people. NFTP had beef with many snitches as well as many local Flint gangs such as Flint Bloodstones, Spanish Cobras, Dayton Mafia, and Selby Hood.
It's a straight gangsta song!
While DFC was the most funkiest rap group, while Took-N-Bone were the dopest, The Dayton Family was the most hardest gangsta rap group, DOA was the most deadliest rap group, you had Ruff-N-Rugged which was the most rugged rap group in Flint, Top Authority was the most authoritative in Flint, Guttt Control was the most gutsiest sexually suggestive out of all the Flint rap groups at that time, while FOD was the rawest, and Artfull Dodgers was the most artsiest, NFTP was the most scandalas rap group from Flint!
I rate this self-titled EP, 4/5****!
