Review: "Renaissance" - David E Beats (Hosted by Mick Boogie)

"Have It All" - David E Beats featuring GangstaGrass

If you don't know David E Beats, then you really must not read this blog all that often. For the better part of the last two years, we here at the Future of Rap Music Business blog have been a supporter of the New York City based producer/artist and musician.

Whether you want to admit it or not, you always have to route for some one who works as hard as David E Beats. From producing, writing, and recording every track on his latest mixtape release "Renaissance", to being the only official member of the White House Band, opening the stage at live performances for such notable acts as Keith Murrary, Slum Village, Das Racist, Too $hort, Action Bronson & Mickey Factz (just to name a few) while also heading up the Rap Rocks! concert promotions company.

His newest achievement though would have to be the recent release of the new mixtape "Renassiance", which is currently buzzing through most of the biggest names in music blogs and hip hop websites.

The thirteen track project, hosted by Mick Boogie, boasts some serious instrumentation and dope production. Not to mention some sickening guitar riffs that just bring tracks like "Have It All" featuring GangstaGrass together sonically, into one very nice mix.

To me, the "Renaissance" mixtape is all about showcasing the diverse range of sounds that David E Beats is capable of bringing to the table. There's a little bit of something for everyone; mellow joints like "Dream" and "Everyday", to more hype tracks such as "T.G.I.F." and the uplifting joint "Happiness" featuring Ciph

One thing that quickly caught my attention, is how not one of the tracks sounds much like any of the others. Each song on "Renaissance" brings its own unique vibe, message and overall emotional feel, which makes you want to keep listening from start to finish.

In fact, the tracks blend together quite seamlessly, which is an art form that goes highly overlooked (or underheard) when it comes to this day and age of an infinite number of mixtapes. However, "Renaissance" comes with the full package, truly the soundtrack to one man's very unique story.

This mixtape has tracks for all kind of hip hop heads, but mainly for all those fans out there who are looking for something fresh and vibrant. Certainly, few could argue that there are no other artists/producers out there right now whom you can compare to David E Beats.

The man quite literally drives in his own lane when it comes to the future of the rap music business.
