guest star bars from H.K.K. absolutely hit the mark and keep the track weaving dynamically as it transitions and flows… there’s lots to listen to on “Down Low” from the verse to the chorus and it delivers real entertainment for the ears. All 4 Walls: Lyrically, ”All 4 Walls” was completely impressive. Not only does Dino have you cracking a serious smile throughout half of the descriptions he rhymes about in the verse but the filters & effects added to the hook in the chorus set the whole track right off. The words themselves are fantastic yes – but a lot about what makes “All 4 Walls” as memorable as it is, is the melody in the lyrics as Dino bends and shifts them; whether its manually in the high-speed of the verse or chromatically through the pitch-shifting in the chorus, Dino’s bending these words to his will with a masterful grip on the mic. The result is something that sounds highly unique to the ear AND has seriously strong pull through the hook of the way the lyrics flow in every part of this song. Once again keeping it minimal in the music has beefed up Dino’s performance and production…definitely an emcee that’s ready to rise to the occasion – I dig that. In Da Trap featuring Minus: You WILL notice the verse on the final track “In Da Trap” featuring Minus. The hook comes out sounding memorable once again and I dig how it’s edited & performed – but listen to the extra aggression in the attitude that Dino brings to his bars on this one…loved the sound of his verse and the added energy he brought to it. Speaking of energy – check out the blazing verse that Minus puts into this one…like… DAMN! This emcee has the track ripping along at its finest as he flows through the second minute like Usain Bolt flows from 0-60 in less than ten seconds…love the pace and love the tone – I thought this was another example of a collaboration that really worked well on this record, but let’s also face facts – they truly ALL showed up when it comes to the performances of the featured guests on this EP. Final Critique: Only criticism I have is extremely minor and from what I heard on the Pure EP – Dino might have realized this also about halfway through the record. As much as it instantly makes me sound old to say it – shouting out the brand at the beginning of the song isn’t ever an engaging thing for the people as listeners…it’s just not. It’s highly effective as an advertisement…but then of course you have to ask yourself if that’s really what you want the first thing people to hear in your music like they’re waiting for the ad on a YouTube video, know what I mean? Thankfully it doesn’t interfere all that much with this record and at one point or another, Dino drops it from occurring altogether…which again, I think was the smart play. Boss Beats deserves their shout-outs for a fantastic job & I get that…but that’s what liner-notes and album credits are for…all I’m saying is make way for the man to do his thang on the mic…we don’t need to eat them bars up with this kinda stuff when there’s so much to offer around every corner on Dino’s tracks throughout the Pure EP. All this being said…it’s a minor observance at best…I don’t want to take away from the fact that this emcee has truly nailed it here with an entirely vibrant & lively set of seven cuts, because he truly has – the Pure EP is highly dynamic, versatile and has really impressive movement & flow.
