Armani Caesar releases this tape as an independent through her own label. The disc leans heavily on a somewhat generic trap production that doesn't reward the artist's performance in the first half. "No One" might be an exception: on a nice mainstream beat with a good melody, Armani rap is focused and she can carry the track all the way, pity that the hook is left to an overly compressed chipmunk soul sample. After a bit of interchangeable rhythmic selections, slow rapping, a few rnb tracks and a few touches of autotune, in the second part of the tape there are bouncy boom bap rhythms that lift the project a little by fitting the girl's rapping style better. From "Dreams Worth More Than Money Freestyle" onwards it's practically another record and each song sound better than the previous one until the end. Even in this effort there are flashes of talent, although it's not an essential listening in the season.
