3.0 good | Alabaster Jones | December 15th 15 | The producer known as D.R.U.G.S, who has produced for rappers like Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, Ludacris, and Young Dro, is well-versed in the style of boom-bap he employs on this record, giving it a nice modern feel. Still, it's not the most original of stuff, and definitely suffers from sameyness throughout the record. The beats here sometimes feel kind of dry, but most of the samples are pretty well placed in the songs. It's got some nice vibes, but unfortunately can come off as kind of boring in certain places. I'd say that the most damning thing about the record is how nondescript it is, because when you're going for an instrumental hip-hop album, it's going to have to be pretty memorable and diverse, and that doesn't really happen all that often here. Still, when it's on, it's spot on, and select tracks off of the record are really good. It's not a bad album at all, just a very nondescript record with some good vibes.
