Dreamer's Poetry

So Mike Dreams just released his first full album since getting some 2dopeboyz love. And in his honor, I will pause that last statement. I don't know if we're #offthat yet, but you can ask him on Twitter. It's all good.

My favorite track might be the intro. It's legit prolly the best beat I've heard so far in this early year and Mike effortlessly runs throughout the entire track setting the atmosphere for the rest of the songs following. He's definitely got a knack for kicking off metaphor after metaphor referencing any and everything to fill out each verse. And though these aren't the big name producers you'll see on everyone else's projects, Mike definitely has an ear for quality beats throughout. His singer features are really nice highlights and the entire collective project feels like it should. Like an album. Funny how that works when you put the time in like he did and developed out this LP. If you're cool with a break from gutter hip hop and don't mind being uplifted for 17 tracks, then this is the early 2010 album you need to pick up.
