Mixerr Album Reviews #1,232

This is Michael Mixerr. I will be reviewing Barry G - I Got Em for a single review.

Grapetree Records and Barry G unleashed a harmonic funky dope single called I Got Em back in 1995 on CD. Think of 70s hip hop meeting Christian gospel music over rough beats when you listen to the I Got Em single. Hip hop with a raw edge is one way to describe this single which has that rough, rugged, and raw sound from the streets. You can tell by listening to the production skills that Barry G had kept a keen ear to the streets when he wrote these 2 songs. Barry Hogan and Rebecca Hogan served as executive producers for this single. Grapetree Records and Black I Productions were responsible for production duties.

Production skills by Barry G have developed.

Barry G serves em on Time For Some Action as this song transitions into a rough and rugged street sermon over rough raw beats. Direct influences of hip hop are clearly present in Time For Some Action. Barry G is not afraid of his audience as he himself faces the truth.

I rate this single, I Got Em, 4/5****.
