Dipset Memorial Day Mixtape Review


In honor of our brave veterans, the Diplomats decided to drop a Memorial Day Mixtape. I'm sure we're all very aware of how patriotic Jimmy Jones, Killa Cam and Human Crack are.

Then again, this site and the people who visit it aren't exactly models of compassion (nhjic), and the truth is all I care about is whether or not this mixtape is any good. So on to the review.

Intro

Good thing Juelz lets us know that it's Dipset in the house. The bad news is that Jimmy Jones is the next Dip member dropping an album. Juelz and Cam have albums coming out "soon," which actually means "later."

Juelz - What The Game's Been Missin

The beat's bouncy. The track's all right, although it's weird to hear him talk about Cam's Purple Haze, which came out over half a year before Memorial Day.

Hell Rell, JR Writer, 40 Cal , Jim Jones, Juelz, Un Kasa - Harlem Symphony

Just about everyone jumps on this collaboration, which of course isn't a good thing. Whether it's 40 Cal and Jim Jones being terrible, Hell Rell taking 22 2s lines, or Un Kasa being anywhere near a microphone, this track was clearly destined to fail.

Juelz - Santana's Town Part 2

The first Santana's Town was one of the only bright spots on Juelz's debut album, featuring one of the tightest Dipset beats of them all. Unfortunately, this track is only a preview of the whole song, which is coming on Juelz's next album. The 30 seconds that we hear sounds good, but not as good as Part 1.

Juelz - The Edge

The beat samples a track that is escaping my head for some reason. It's upbeat, but Santana doesn't really speed up the flow enough to keep up with it though.

Hell Rell - Back In The Building

Heatmakerz produced this beat, and while it's nice it's nothing spectacular by Heatmakerz standards. The beat reminds me of Crunk Muzic.

As for Hell Rell, I think he's the Bizarre of the Dipset. "This my dope from Africa straight from the motherland. Your girl can't suck a good dick but your mother can."

Jim Jones - Baby Girl

Based on this title, I immediately thought this had the potential to be the 34th entry to the Worst Songs Ever tournament. And that was before I found out the fucking track was almost 8 minutes long.

After a minute of Juelz talking more garbage about how Jim Jones's last album was "a beautiful fucking thing," major no homo, we get into the track.

No Homo Juelz Santana, Jim Jones is his typical terrible self. The beat is blah, and they got those reggae guys doing the hook. Whoever's doing the hook, they pronounce Dipset like "dipshit."

The track is 8 minutes long because of a 3 minute interlude at the end. Of course it's worthless, but by cutting off a Jim Jones special it served its purpose.

Cam'ron and Hell Rell - Get Em Daddy

Cam's intro is, "They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That's why I look in the mirror everyday and see how fly I am."

This was supposed to be a sequel of sorts to the well known Get Em Girl. The beat for this track is definitely an improvement over Jimmy's last track. And while Cam sometimes drops lyrics so absurd they're humorous, in this case they're just corny.

And this might be Hell Rell's worst verse among all the mixtape joints he's on, which is saying something.

J.R. Writer - Freestyle

For some reason, Juelz is talking a whole bunch of shit as an intro for almost every fucking track. It's almost like he was designated the weed carrier for these proceedings.

I'm pretty sure this Writer track showed up on Writer's Block Volume 2, and I question my decision to review that the first time, let alone a second time.

J.R Writer, 40 Cal, Hell Rell - Best Out

It wouldn't shock me if this beat was used on one of the tracks from Writer's Block Volume 2. The beat's not that bad, but it's so similar to just about everything J.R. Writer shows up on. Hell Rell raps, "Deliver bullets to your door like they're Domino pies."

Then I did a quick look and found that yes indeed this track was already on Writer's Block Volume 2.

40 Cal - The T.V Real

40 Cal is lame. Period.

Juelz - See my Clip

Juelz taks the beat from the Ying Yang Whisper song and then whispers his verse while reenacting a stick up. The theme definitely works, and Juelz pulls it off well for the most part, except for the hook. I'm guessing this is the tightest track on here.

Juelz and Fabolous - So What's It Gonna Be

For the third time, Juelz talks about a whole bunch of tourist spots like Cancun and Puerto Rico, Jamaica and Yugoslavia. I'm not even kidding. According to Juelz, Yugoslavia is one of those "fun type of places." What the hell?

Yet again, the beat is a sample from a track that I can't name even though I should be able to. The track itself is probably Santana's worst one on here. Fabolous is his usual self, nhjic.

Hell Rell - Get Back

Every Hell Rell track has a similar beat. And Hell Rell tells broke people to get away from him because being broke's a disease. What a joke.

With that said, this is the fastest flow Hell Rell has probably ever dropped. As far as Hell Rell's concerned, this isn't bad.

Cam'ron, Juelz, 40 Cal, JR Writer - Bubble Music Remix

This is a remix to the popular Purple Haze track. 40 Cal is a poor man's Hell Rell, which is saying a lot. Writer flows slowly, which is his death knell (nhjic). This is one of those instances where Juelz is completely terrible. Cam sounds incoherent like usual.

The original track was more than enough apparently.

Jim Jones and Trey Songz - Summer Wit Miami

This is a Jim Jones love song...I think we know where this is headed.

And still you couldn't possibly understand how terrible this song is without hearing it. Seriously. I'm assuming this is going to be on Jim Jones's album as well. It's definitely shaping up to be the worst rap album of all time, no Aaron Carter.

Juelz and Paul Wall - We Don't Give a Fuck

How many goddam mixtapes does this track have to appear on before it's retired?

Cam'ron and Juelz - Get Down

I think this is one of the worst beats on the entire mixtape. So Murphy's Law of course determined that Cam'ron would drop his least obnoxious best verse of the mixtape on it, as if that means anything. I can't even figure out what Juelz was trying to accomplish with that hook or the final verse.

Juelz - He's The One Your Thinking Of

Since this is the last track, Juelz shouts out all the Dipset peeps and homies and he professes his love to them all, major no homo. Juelz tells us that he directed his own Mic Check video and that "it was a beautiful fucking thing." No Homo Juelz Santana, but how many beautiful fucking things are there in the Dipset World?

The beat is a light, soul type thing. It's not a very good track in any sense.

All in all, some of the tracks are all right, and the best part about the Dipset is that you can immediately tell which tracks are complete garbage just based on who did them. So if you're looking for something that might be play worthy and not interested in reviews, that's a big help.
