Flip, Quit Releasing Your Outtakes {1 ½ Stars} Apr 19, 2007
I can't remember the last time Flip dropped an album that wasn't a certified drink coaster. If Crime Knob didn't exist, this would EASILY be the worst rap release of 2007. You know something is wrong when I Mike Jones makes more than one appearance. Thank god I DJ and get albums like this for free. I mean, how can you listen to the rhymes on songs like "White Cup" or "Warrior" and call this a hot album? And even if you bought this for the beats, you have to admit that joints like "Play 4 Life", "Family Tradition", and "Hustle" are as wack as wack gets. This isn't even a hard album. I know some of you clowns try to hide behind that "hard" thing when you call this a classic, but he's afraid to mention TI's name on "Bustaclip" and he sampled Heavy D's "Nuthin' But Love" on "Flippin" -- yeah, that's real gangsta right there. The most ironic point of the album is when Flip unintentionally describes himself as what's wrong with hip hop on "Real Hip Hop". Flip is a clown and if you think this is hard, tight, or whatever, then you're either a minor or you need to ease up on the codeine/promethazine (look it up) & Sprite and clean your ears out.
There are maybe one or two tracks on both discs each that aren't absolutely terrible. "What It Do" features Mannie Fresh on the beat (the best beat on the whole album). "3,2,1, Go" has Three 6 Mafia on it and I'm a fan, so I dig that one. "Ghetto Mindstate (Can't Get Away)" stinks lyrically, but Lyfe Jennings provides a decent hook and "Addicted (Mary Jane)" has a decent beat. But nothing on the album stands out...not even the songs listed in this paragraph.
I Need Mine $$ is a godawful release from one of the worst acts to come out of the south. The lyrics are elementary and the songs are about the same thing every "thug of the week" is rapping about. You can only spin that so many ways and Flip isn't even trying to spin it anymore. He's just plain lazy. On a seperate note, could someone PLEASE explain to me what makes him the freestyle king? I'd imagine he'd have to be freestyling on every song he makes because I can't imagine anyone sitting down and putting thought into writing lyrics like these. I recommend siiting your drinks on this overpriced drink coaster. Don't even download it -- it's that bad.
