Tape tribute to Nas. Cookin Soul opens this tape with a beautiful jazzy instrumental, first of several light and relaxing beat. The second track is a light, cheerful, jazzy rhythm. Also, alive has jazzy vibes among a minimal drum machine, then "Life's a Bitch": splendid jazzy boom bap, soulful, light, relaxing vibes, nice homage.
Another highlight is represented by "Living Fast": that's wonderful, flawless jazzy light rhythm, relaxing instrumental track, dope. "Masta" is a classic jazzy instrumental, light, relaxing. Follows a light boom bap, jazzy vibes, pretty nice beat; then, "Childhood Memories": that's one of the best Cookin Soul production ever. Classic stuff, jazzy vibes, light, relaxing mood, flawless soulful hook by female background vocals, accomplished by a cornet. "Revolution" has a pretty nice jazzy boom bap, light, simple, excellent beat, with dope sample of female background vocals. Xmas bells maybe are too loud in background to work in "Rewindit", nice jazzy beat, then "Survival" & "Masionchillin" are two good jazzy boom baps relaxing, light. "Gottaloveit" has an extravagant beat, light, jazzy, before "Downwitit", sample by Roxanne Shanté, boom bap jazzy skinny and simple, with James Brown shouts scattered. Closes "Warriorjoint", last high of the tribute tape: great jazzy beat, light and relaxing vibes, soulful female background vocals, amazing soulful finale.
Highlights: "Life's a Bitch (Winter remix)", "Living Fast", "Masta", "Childhood Memories", "Revolution", "Warriorjoint".
