Part of Shyne Story

Longtime producer extraordinaire BucWild lays out Bob Marley’s “No More Trouble” sample in “Quasi OG,” a munificent track that leans towards Shyne’s conscious side, revealing a recognition of hip-hop’s lack of a political eye. From capitalism to conspiracy theory, Shyne acknowledges the dark social spectrum that looms over the direction of Black-American youth and his prison brethren. Another notable is the dramatic “Diamonds and Mac 10s,” a Just Blaze produced track that is skillfully set in two tones: one of an emotive Shyne “dying and cryin’ inside,” pleading to God in redemptive calling for refuge and acceptance; the other is the opposite side of the prison wall healing worlds with exaltation, triumph and hope, discernible by big blasting trumpets and horns.
