G Herbo, he of the best XXL cypher verse of 2016, has a reputation for being late with mixtapes. Though at first Pistol P Project seemed like a stopgap for fans clamoring for the as-of-then-unfinished Ballin' Like I'm Kobe, over time it has definitely earned its place in Herbo's discography, if only for being a short, powerful, and consistent shot of adrenaline and not much else. There may be a laid back track here or there, but mostly it's stuff like "Where I Reside", where Herbo sounds like he's tearing the roof off of a building and the beats reside in an all-banger territory. DJ L, possessing a seemingly never-ending array of intense, but frustrated or even slightly morose beats, certainly does his part here. The features aren't all that great, though Jace drops a heartwarmingly positive and endearing verse on "Play It Smart" that got yours truly to smile. All props due to Herb, definitely keeping an eye out for that debut album.
