IllMuzik's own Bucky is an emcee/producer from Kentucky. He's both comfortable with sampling and composing. Furthermore he possess a great sense of humor. Bucky has recently released an album entitled "Backpack Hustle". Now time for the review.

More Human (4.5 out of 5 Very Good)

Bucky introduces himself over an energetic beat that reminds me of the Bomb Squad.

16 barz (3 out of 5 Fair)

16 bars of rhymes with a monotone flow over a bass heavy beat. Decent.

April 6th (4 out of 5 Good)

A smooth blunt track with a nice use of a Biggie sample.

Absolute Greygoose ft Danny Kegstand (4 out of 5 Good)

Nice guitar driven beat and sung hook. Lyric-wise it's all about attracting the ladies (with Absolute and Greygoose vodka?).

Hate if Ya Wanna (4.5 out of 5 Very Good)

Nice flip of a classic sample. Very soulful track about the haters.

A town boogie ft t3 (3 out of 5 Fair)

A sinister piano driven track which matches Bucky's monotone very well.

LA Gearz (3 out of 5 Fair)

A humorous track about LA Gear shoes. The beat uses a vocal sample and hazy synths.

Elevator (4 out of 5 Good)

Another track about females. I'm feeling the smooth keys.

Party Tonite (How we do) (4.5 out of 5 Very Good)

An awesome remake of Montell Jordan's "This is how we do it".

People Call Me Bucky! (2 out of 5 Poor)

This is a braggadocio track over a slow minimalist beat. Too monotone.

Do What it Do ft Danny Kegstand (3 out of 5 Fair)

A smooth RnB song featuring Danny Kegstand.

All I want is you (5 out of 5 Classic)

Probably the strongest effort on the mixtape. The mysterious beat samples powerful drums, organs and guitars. Obvious subject matter.

This is Dope! ft t3 (3 out of 5 Fair)

Nice guitar sample but the southern drums don't really fit.

Spoil Me (4.5 out 5 Very Good)

Soulful beat with superb strings. Bucky rhymes about sipping lemonade, receiving Nike shoes ...you know being spoiled.

Pass out (3.5 out of 5 Fair)

Slow dreamy track. Bucky passes out, ending the tape.

Conclusion: Solid mixtape. Bucky is humorous and a well-rounded artist.

Score: 4 out of 5
