Left Lane Didon & Tha God Fahim — Dumpacalypse Now


Left Lane Didon tries to emerge from the meager Delaware rap scene with this seven-song project and roughly twenty-one minutes of listening time. The production is completely entrusted to Tha God Fahim, the guests are Mach-Hommy, Stack Skrilla, Jay NICE and Fahim himself. These are some of the producer's second-tier beats, and it's one of Fahim's few tapes where rap is better than music. This effort, which features a cover in homage to the first LP released by 2Pac, features lo-fi beats, some honest and decent jazz loops, and good rap, guests hold it tight. Tha God Fahim, perhaps not coincidentally, retains his clearest soundscape for "Tamarind Targets", the cut with Mach-Hommy: good drum, samples of sad and enveloping strings, the rappers deliver a track that stands out clearly above the others. 6/10.
