Pusha T - Wrath Of Caine (Mixtape Review)

Wrath Of Caine is Pusha T's latest perfect set up to what will be his debut solo LP My Name Is My Name. Eleven dope tracks were put together from the G.O.O.D Music artist. It can be considered perfect timing, considering the fact that he has come a long way after a great few years under Kanye West's administration. With many appearances on projects such as his own Fear of God mixtape a couple years back, Kanye's revolutionary LP My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, as well as the recent G.O.O.D Music album, the Virginia based MC is surpassing what many people thought would be a brief stint as a solo artist. The project featured artists such as MMG's Wale, the upcoming rising NY artist French Montana, Troy Ave, and an upcoming artist from Louisiana named Kevin Gates. The production on the mixtape featured producers such as B!NK!, Jake One, Pharrell, Young Chop, and Harry Fraud. All were used properly, by emphasizing all of Pusha's key attributes as an MC. The project was put together very well, and is an easy listen all the way through. Standout tracks on the project included a dope reggae sample on "Take My Life", "Doesn't Matter" featuring French Montana, and produced By Renegades, and of course the single "Millions" featuring Rick Ross, and produced by Southside, and the one and only Kanye West. A great project from a great artist who really shows his true musical integrity using just eleven songs, this is a must download for any hip-hop head to say the least.

Overall Grade: B+

Reasoning: Hip-hop delivered, real lyrics from a real lyricist.
