Review:
The Philly MC Meek Mill, member of Rick Ross’s MMG, is one of MTV’s 2012
Ten Hottest MCs, along with other MMG members Ross and Wale. Though,
personally, I am very surprised to see him there, especially with his latest
mixtape Dreamchasers 2, the follow up to a fairly weak Dreamchasers
Mixtape. Much of Dreamchasers 2 is mixtape quality street bangers. Musically,
the album is not very interesting, as most of the beats are generic throwaways.
Though, Jahlil Beats, Cardiak, KeY Wane, and Beat Billionaire provide some
decent stuff – but again, mixtape quality. Normally, this would be fine, but
many of today’s best new artists in hip hop put out mixtapes that are better
than most other artists’ albums, and thus there is a high bar to strive for,
and this tape is nowhere near as good. Not to mention, Meek Mill is often
overshadowed by his many guests. Big Sean, Wale, Kendrick Lamar, and Drake all
outshine him on the tape. It is not to say Meek Mill is bad, as that is not the
case. Dreamchasers 2 is just disappointing because Meek Mill is supposedly one
of the hottest MCs right now, and fans of his music know he can put out great
tracks like Tupac Back.
This mixtape is fine for fans of MMG and Meek Mill, but certainly not a must
for fans of hip hop in general. 2/5
