Ravage the MeccaGodZilla aka the secret Weapon of the MIC, beat maker, mc, artist, and an amazingly creative person in general. Fans such as myself have been waiting years for some fully produced Ravage albums, little did we know we would be getting one in the form of a Jigga remix but its dope all the same. Ravage takes the vocals from Jay-Z's 'American Gangster' album and combines them with his own masterful production to great effect, Ravage gives these songs a new life and truly makes them his own. Rav's productions style is very much his own, he doesnt sound like X-Ray or DOOM and his beats as a whole have a much wider range of sound then the other MIC producers, Rav's beats can swing from dark and ominous to light hearted and playful all the while banging hard enough to make you wish he had released an instrumental version of this. The only true fault I can find with this lp was 'Hello Brooklyn feat Lil Wayne' where the vocals seemed to be synced up wrong, thankfully this is the only time on the 17 tracks that this happens and the rest of the album bangs.

Really not a whole lot to say about this, its a remix album, the beats are often times better then the originals were, the songs have new life breathed in to them, and best of all it was free (although you can, like me, cop a copy from Rav himself). Make sure not to sleep on this, very creative and dope album and one of the better remix joints ive heard
 


Overall - 4/5
