@soulcon: I forgot to mention that “A Vision and A Plan” album also, Muneshine is a real, dope, down to earth artist who doesn’t get the shine he deserves. And that’s the Emilio Rojas I like to hear…

You know what people really need to check out? “A Vision and a Plan” by Phocus, that album is really nice.

@dj premier – for one you are probably jealous that emilio rojas is his real name, and you cant even use yours when youre speaking in a public forum
YES EMILIOOOOO! tape is insane!!!!!!!!!

has anyone here ever thought that maybe rappers, and artists in general like to try new things … or maybe progress … emilio still does some of his older shit on this mixtape, he also tries many new things, which in my opinion shows his diversity as an artist, and if you asked me being able to make many different types of music is a good thing and a talent in itself.
how about everyone here just stops fighting over someone elses creative work.
who are any of you to say why he did, or didnt do something.
can you say for a fact that these records sound different from some of his older ones because he wants to be like other people? NO YOU CANT. if you asked me this tape is so unlike others that are out now. emilios flow and rhymes alone seperate him from the pack.
i downloaded this tape, to me its more like an album. i am keeping it and i will be listening to it on the regular, i can tell you that much.
i respect ppl who are creative and all artists, rap and otherwise.
words to the wise: dont speculate on other peoples motives for anything, you will never know.

Finally some crusaders on my side, anyways you like soul beats and smooth samples, then check out Kev Browns whole catalogue, now there’s something to ride to.

@keith n’ dem… genius

@areyouSERIOUS!?.. you are straight up riding Emilio’s dick right now, if you had any ear for respectable Hip Hop you probably would of deleted this tape 6 songs in. P!

i agree with premier and dilla donuts. this is not an album i want to listen to. i like dope beats, with soul samples, music i can ride through my town and puff a little haze to. the best example would be INI – Center Of Attention. clearly, if you listen to emilios older music, he has changed his sound for a more mainstream approach. some call it evolving, some call it selling out. m-phazes used to be one of my favorite producers, but he too, is deciding to go for a more commercial sound (ala khrysis, illmind). i understand why these artists do it. they realize that the majority of the masses are not fans of smooth, soul sampled beats. just watch 4 minutes of bet or mtv, and see/listen the type of “hip hop” that is being played. these dudes are trying to make a living off of rap, and they realize that the only way to do that is to adapt to what is selling. i have seen so many of my once favorite rapper/producers go this route. it is disappointing, yes. especially when half of them start out rapping about how they would never sell out. but is it suprising? nope.

after a few listens i agree with the M-PHAZES comments about his beats on this project being more on the mainstream level..still a dope mixtape..lyrically you cant front on EMILIO skills..this mixtape is better than a lot of albums that came out this year

I’ve never checked those albums out and since you seem to be on the same level as me I’ll definitely give them a shot. Im not quite sure why all these negative comments about people having the same opinion are surfacing. I mean it goes both ways, half you guys are commenting on how great the album is and then all of a sudden two guys got the same opinion and you jump us like Gucci Mane will be. So seriously why don’t we ask each other why we don’t like certain songs, lets discuss them thoroughly, we aren’t gonna have the same opinion but at the end of the day we can respect each others views. Or not, its really up to you guys.
