B-Ro's Album Reviews...

Z-Ro & Trae's - A.B.N. "It Is What It Is" 2008


Despite feeling a bit like a mixtape due to a few old songs, (In My City, No Help & Who's The Man has been out for a while) Z-Ro & Trae came with solid lyrics and hard flow like we're used to. Always for me, I think Trae spits better than Z-Ro, however Ro comes with the Nate Dogg'ish courses on several tracks. Those qualities they share always mix well with their commonly used melodic, well produced beats. On this effort there's those few tracks I could do without but I was certainly feelin', Umm Hmm, Down In Texas & Picture Me. An updated Miss My Dawg including new verses and shouts to the late Pimp C was also noted. As a big fan of these 2 I'd give a generous 3.5/5 (still good to listen n' light some kush to). It has also been brought to my attention, Trae has been working hard on his ABN (A Better Neighboorhood) campaign in cities throughout Texas. He could even have a day named after him in those areas later this month... appropriately being Trae Day. Big ups to Trae for that and I look forward to any new music coming from him or Z-Ro! Smoke on!

For all you homies that don't have some songs from the album, here are a few HOT tracks.
