KHAYREE - THE BLACKALATION

Khayree, The legend behind Young Black Brotha Records brings out his own compilation. Ever since he produced Mac Dre's album "Young Black Brotha" and Ray Luv's "Get my money on" in 1993 on Strictly Buisness Records, the man has proved to be one of the greatest producers in rap and RnB together. It 's been that way ever since 1993, and it showed on all those Young Black Brotha Records classic albums by Ray Luv, Mac Mall, Young Lay and Dubee. This album was released in 1997. With the trademark Khayree production. It's a mix of rap and some RnB. The bigger names on the album are : Mac Dre, Dubee, Big Syke (from Thug Life), Ray Luv, JT The Bigga Figga and Sleep Dank. The rest of the performers on the album are all rappers and singers from YBB Records. Everyone does a good job, including the young and unknown artists. Khayree sings on a few of the songs. The best track (in my opinion) is number 10, someone says to Khayree "I don't think you do gangsta shit any more". And then - Khayree drops one of the hardest and darkest beats in his career, and Big Syke just rips the track up with his vicious flows and lyrics. All songs are made by Khayree, So ya get to hear his versatile skills with production. More than half the lyrics are co-written by him too.
