“Behold an elaborate assortment of mind spelling thoughts wrapped within the center of smooth word play, witty punch lines, and impacting beats. Classified exhibits confidence in each rhyme which he unleashes near perfect. With stunning appearances by underground talent such as Dan-E-O, D-Sisive, Ground Squad, Trobiz & Kaspa, and Divo fans grasp an underlying reassurance that networking gives birth to some golden hip hop music. Classified, and Halflife records will continue to climb strong, never missing a single step, when creating gems like “Union Dues“. “
“Politics” is one of Classifieds more reflective tracks featuring lyrics you can feel, delivered strongly in a befitting presentation. The beat serves up some laid back, head nodding sounds. The scratching / mixing in the chorus certainly adds to the laid back underground feel this track emits. “Fuck press reviews where they talk like they got lines, always trying to front, you write articles, not rhymes.”
“Crossing Lines” features solid delivery, and smooth word play constantly. Strong abrasive vocals ride steadily on a banging beat. Classified steps up to the microphone, and lets fans know where its at.
“Questions??” is a very impressive track, that hits listeners with a commanding beat, and strong, ever flowing lyrics. Classified controls the microphone with confidence, and talent, which appeases all cravings for overly satisfying hip hop music.
“Yuh Dead Now” is one of those tracks forged with heart. If you ever had the slightest inclination that Canada, and Toronto don’’t bring it, this track will diminish it to finish. T-Dot is where its at, and with the help of strong contributions from talented artists such as Dan-e-o, and D-sisive, Classified shatters listeners. Dan-e-o uses a multi symbolic rhyme scheme which works well, and compliments the other two artists contributions. Classified delivers impact with his verse which lets listeners know he’’s on top of his game. D-sisive contributes a good performance, definitely adding to the track as a whole. Now the beat is, for lack of a better word, brilliant. Purely banging, hard hitting, and moving. This track is destine to be a classic.
“If there ever was doubt that Canadian artists have a lot of talent to offer the world, that inclination is shattered again, with the release of this album. Classified delivers a wide array of impressive hip hop gems that will shine beyond a lifetime. Endlessly satisfying vocals, beats, and production. Certainly an album to pick up, check out, and spin in heavy rotation.”
