Mixtape Review: Potty Mouth – JaySin

Potty Month Jaysin

1. Potty Mouth Intro
2. Porta Potty
3. Roses
4. Enemies Bleeds
5. Horror Story
6. Death Wish
7. No Peace
8. Romance
9. DXB
10. Sh*t I Do It (Feat. Heavy Trev)
11. Role Model (remix)

Good news has come to Jason Slusser ‘s way since his last appearance on NEW LEASE MUSIC with his mixtape Clear Eye’d . He struck a deal with record label Diverse Sounds Entertainment which led to the birth of his first professionally- recorded mixtape, Potty Mouth released last month.

Unlike Clear Eye’d , the 11-track mixtape is a less radical representation of his life. Roses is a perfect example of this upriser’s fresh stamp on hip-hop, as it features a smooth soulful drive which is coupled with the Chicago – born emcee’s heartfelt wordplay of love and encouragement.

He hasn’t  deserted his truth-be-told lyrics. In No Peace, JAYSIN raps about the corruption and the influence the government has over society, whereas  Horror Story gives an account of the overall harsh experience of his past  – both tracks possessing a dauntingly-dope bassline.

Potty Mouth definitely ends on a high with Role Model (remix). With seriously head-rolling beats, this track shows that this black sheep of society (his words, not mine)  is not leaving the hip-hop game anytime soon. The mixtape  displays that he definitely deserves his new chapter with Diverse Sounds Entertainment.  To experience JAYSIN’s world, check out Potty Mouth right here.

13. Privacy Screwed Remix (Prod. Fly Von) Feat. Sta$h and J Steez

Last month, super-fly hip-hop and EDM artist/producer FLY VON was here before with track 40 Days (featuring J Steez), coming from  mixtape, Rebel Kinghts. This track was so silky smooth, I thought I have a blast  at the mixtape.  So what to expect from this 13-track production?  Expect even more smoother than chocolate Timbaland- esque numbers , with downtempo, atmospheric melodies complimented with heavy drive.

Rebels Knights starts off with intro Sing – A-Long, which offers just over two minutes of that perfect balance of spaced out beats with hefty bassline which was topped off by super-light, mashed up vocals. The infusion continues in No Place Like Home and With Me, which  features head-jerking, Timbaland-esque freesytling. The mixtape lightened up with Do It and paradisiac  Finesse.

The stand-out tracks are She Not Your Girl (No More), Heartbreakers & Hangovers and the slow-motioned  Privacy (Screwed Remix) – if you’re not familiar with  FLY VON, after listening to these tracks, you’ll come to realise that these ingenious compositions, layered with echoic vocals, (at times) on-point raps and melodic undertone, are his trademark.

To put it simply, Rebel Knights just display that this guy has deliberately positioned myself as a innovative rapper and producer. To check out Rebels Knights, please go here.
