If the beat on “Full Contact” was just better, this might have been a hot collabo – Evidence, Swollen Members, and Chali 2na all pop up, but the simplistic track had me reaching for the FF button even before Chali got his turn on the mic. How did someone manage to sleep on this one? A wasted effort by all four MCs involved. “Take It Back” at least understands this – the video game-esque beat is instantly infectious you won’t get folks doing the electric slide to it, but the head nod factor is high enough to warrant a listen. And the vaguely free association style of the vocal flow had me going for a minute: “the mighty dollar is taller than the scholar/ask your neighborhood martyr about the fire starter.” I mean, I have no idea what this sh*t is supposed to mean but they manage to get by on flow alone (a rare talent these days). The remix, a frilly funky affair, kills that vibe dead though, oops. Longevity Rating: Two weeks.
