EP of half an hour that marks the debut of Ray Tyson aka Ray Luv in the rap game, directly from the Bay Area. He mixes gangsta and political lyrics on typical West Coast music, mobb precisely, provided entirely by Khayree, one of the most interesting producers of the period who also tackles the g-funk in "1 Fo Ya Ass 'Raymond's Dead'": his funky beats are simple, with a skinny, syncopated, hard and tight drum machine, while Ray Luv delivers bars with a clear, slow and flowing style. There are several interludes during which the beatmaker offers different sonic variations, such as the dystopian and vibrant boom bap in the fourth choice interlude, and the simple instrumental that closes the EP. 6/10.
