Search - Big Mike :: Still Serious

Another good album for his 2nd solo

"Almost 3 years since Big Mike dropped his solid debut, he returns with another 4 star album, slightly lower in quality then "Somethin Serious" but still 4 stars (I'd give his "Hard to Hit" 4.5 stars). Only 12 songs with guests on 5 of them, you still get enough of the man from the Swamp to get you by after a 3 year drought. It has 1 almost classic song, 5 good ones, 3 ok ones, and 2 I skip (1 he isn't even on). Production is good and handled by mostly the same people that did all 3 of his albums. Mike Dean does 5, Mike Banks does 4, Lorenzo Samules, N.O. Joe, and Dent all do 1. His lyrics are on point as always and I'd recommend this for fans who want to hear a real southern rapper (not any of these fake cupcakes on the radio nowadays) or fans of Big Mike.

"Big Mike is hittin hard and deliverin knockout punches with quality anthems such as 'Burban and impalas and All a dream.I think this is solid record that rap fans need.Almost every song has bright spots even the so called not good songs,The reality is that even the not so good songs are better than most...in the flooded rap community."
