MagicalMoodMixtape(Throwback)

Yeahh i'm on my throwback-ishh ...(mostly because of the lack of quality right now)
And i feel like putting my man Mickey (Factz) in the spotlight again..

I don't wanna review the Leak v.1 or v.2 since EVERY HIPSTER BLOG ON THE PLANET already had those tapes on there.. so i skimmed through my iPod and then i found some dope-ness,. : In Search Of The N.E.R.D....
I just had to bring this tape out, mostly because this is a mixtape that not too many people have... or even know about.
AND because the boys of N.E.R.D are set to rock the stage in Holland on November the 9th...(8 days after Rock The Bells).

-Allthough i just had to say... nobody of the N.E.R.D camp assisted or co-signed this mixtape(as far as i know),... this is just Mickey ripping some hot N.E.R.D instrumentals...

-REVIEW-
Mickey Factz - In Search of the N.E.R.D....

The mixtape has 13 tracks on it...Starting off with a track named : Mickey James.
I guess he's just on some brag' and boast' shit here... with lines like:
I can't let my eyes sleep, till' i ask if i'm in your top 3
And your hand goes up like a nazi,(you got me?)
Beat is a little soothing and smooth because of the light drums and the nice synths and voices.
Things are Getting Better is the track that follows...
When the track begins you hear GFC's own Steve-o announcing Mickey over some dope ass break-beat drums ... and later on the drums get assisted by raw synth sounds and funky guitars. Mickey comes hard as usual and the beat sounds good with his flow.
When the chorus kicks in ,the raw synths change into some jazzy keys and Pharell also comes through with the vocals.
The third track is on a beat that i already loved before Mickey killed it..
Rockstar Posers is on the famous:
You can't be me, I'm a Rock Star
I'm rhyming on the top of a cop car beat...
I don't need to tell anybody how this beat goes ,cause i know all of y'all went crazy to this track in the clubs..
Mickey comes through and body-bags all of the posers rocking fake bapes/posers wearing skate clothes even though they never touched a skateboard.

After that he goes further with the brag' and boast' style he left us off with at the first track ,on the famous 'LapDance' beat... only his version is called 'Madman'.
With dope one-liners as: 'you think life's a joke?, then you can die laughing'
The next track('The Way She Dances') is a beat that i've also heard before. I loved the beat before and i like it even more with Mickey on it.
I hope the boys over at Star Trak heard this tape.. because it's almost scary how perfect Mickey's voice fits the N.E.R.D beats..(coughh... SIGN MICKEY TO STAR TRAK cough..)
That probably already explains my feelings about this track... Mickey comes hard on the guitar beats!.
Backseat Love is a track that i don't want to talk much about.
The beat is on some Jimi Hendrix kind off ishh.. And Mickey is on some Slick Rick-storytelling-ishh... NEXT..!
Wonderful Place is about unplanned pregnancies and Mickey becoming a dad and the mixed feelings he have with the whole situation.
ahaha LOL at the conversation before the second verse:(some woman)Mickey i'm late...(Mickey) you late for what?, late for work?....
Beat sounds nice and calm because of the rimshot and the acoustic guitar,.. along with the whistling in the background.

The next track(Stay Together) is my personal favorite of the tape.. some nice melodic vibes with an AMAZING drumline and a bad-ass bassline mixed with some electric guitars...
The track makes me wanna dance and even now when i'm listening it on my ipod my head goes up and down faster than an elevator..
Truth or Dare is the worst track on the tape BY FAR... just because i don't like the beat. i mean,... you got Rock/hip-hop and you just got ROCK...(and this is in the second category..)
But luckely for this tape, a dope track follows. Just like a few earlier tracks Pharell joins forces with Mickey to lay down dope chorus vocals.
The track is called Run To The Sun and is just another good track with lots of instruments on it...Drums, Keys, Organs?, (Bass)Guitars...
Again on some smooth ishh.. just like most tracks on this tape.
The next track isn't though...Dope drums and a nice electric guitar mixed with some dude that screams 'OOHHHHH' all the time is what makes Trasher a (kinda) agressive based street-track..
oh yeah.. that AND the chorus....
GEORGE BUSH!, FUCK EM UP!
DICK CHENEY, FUCK EM UP!
CONDELEEZA, FUCK EM UP!
(and that goes on for about 8 names,.. including 'the goverment').
Mickey goes in all political on this track with some interesting facts about the government.

Breakout shows me a Mickey in the best shape of his life... with some razorblade-sharp rhymes over a (yet again) smooth pop/rock beat. Stating...

'This is not a typo, homie i'm talking.
Our country is totally lost it.
I blame it on the leaders,.. i knew we were gonna get fucked..
Cause we had a dick, a bush and a colin in office.
Cheney, George and Powell, all the vowels in this verse are used more than powers,.
We need to wise up and i ain't talking flowers
Take over the world and call it ours.
Get rid of all the cowards, shake off the doubters,...
then restore the fallen towers'

The ending track/outro 'Take it Off' is for all the lovers & friends(with benefits)..
Cause it's basically Pharell singing to all the girls and telling them to take their bras and panties off.. with Mickey Factz assisting him with a few hot bars..
(Slow jam)
