Prince Cat-Eyez – “Cali’s Don Cheetah”
The Good:
Cats really do have nine lives and “Cali’s Don Cheetah” proves it. The west coast has brought out the claws this time and they sent Prince Cat Eyes to fight back. Updated rhyme skills and phat beats cover this album from the beginning to end. Hot tracks on this mix-tape include… “No Threat To Me”, “Hard 4 A Fem”, “Oh Yeah”, and the title track. For all of those who took this artist as a (pussy)cat, watch this cat roar!
The Bad:
When you give an artist a critique you wonder if they take what you said with a grain of salt or do they do their own damn thing! I can’t tell with this CD because it sounds like the same thing as before. The beats are tight, the flow is so-so, and the lyrics are still not up to par with what they should be for a true rap artist, but if Cat eyes is just an entertainer then there is nothing wrong with “Cali’s Don Cheetah”. The skits we’re cool and all the impersonations we’re funny and the collaborations we’re okay, but I don’t think that you can be called one of the best with this album. You really spent way to much time trying to diss people and then shouting how much better you are than everyone else, yet you we’re about to retire!
The Truth:
No matter if you are a fem artist or a masculine artist the whole concept of rap is having the basic skills to put together thoughts, words, and emotions, with a flow that should ride a beat and be able to switch up with the songs. Prince Cat Eyes is able to achieve that about 80% of the time on this album. Some songs are not well written, but other songs have all the elements they need to make them hits. I can say that the production on most songs is exceptional and worthy of a playback and this artist can write a nice diss song. All in all rap music no matter gay or straight has to have something relevant to say and your spit game should be A+ not B-! Hopefully with new management and a serious look at the game right now will make this artist step his game up to the plateau where he needs to be.
The Recommendation:
Mash It! He actually does take this rap thing seriously!
