Mixtape: Def Beach Society - Three's Company


Virginia Beach's Def Beach Society's latest work of art is something beautiful. It might just be the extra bit of love for a Virginian Rap Group but these guys certainly know how to form a mixtape. Every track is great, beats are solid, lyrics are definitely crucial as well, and the overall concept and production is just lovely. It's a concept tape so be warned all of you punchline after punchline lovers out there that this is not the tape for you. Not saying that there aren't any punchlines that stood out but this is more of a Common than a Lil Wayne.


The actual concept of the mixtape goes like this: there are three different sections which are the Feather, the Rope, and the Needle. The Feather is geared towards purists and the old school sound. The Rope is more like the current sound in their eyes. The Needle is their Nostradamus piece where they attempt to predict where they believe the future of Hip-Hop will end up. Also the audio of the Mental Health Disorders set a ripe, Illusionistic tone to the mixtape.
