Fair review somebody on myspace wrote for me:

3/5 ON THE RATING SCALE: PHRESH

1. WAKE UP- SOLID BEAT. VERY OLD SCHOOL HIP HOP FEEL. QUALITY IS GOOD. THE MESSAGE IS STRONG. DEFINATELY A GOOD WAY TO START A HIP HOP ALBUM. REMINDS ME OF A STRUGGLE ANTHEM. THIS TRACK HOOKS YOU IN FOR SURE.

2. SO REFRESHING- JUST SOME REAL SHIT POINT NINE IS GETTING ACROSS. THE EXPLAINATION OF FALSEHOODS IN HIPHOP AND RAP. JUST EVERYDAY THINGS. VERY RELEXED BEAT. THE HOOK IS A GRABBER. THIS TRACK IS PRETTY WELL PUT TOGETHER. SMOOTHE AND MELODIC AS WELL AS A REFRESHING TAKE ON OLD SCHOOL HIPHOP.

3. THEY'RE ALL THE SAME- REAL TALK ON THE CATS WHO ARE GENERALLY FOLLOWERS IN HIPHOP OR RAP. THE BEAT REMINDS ME OF GANGSTARRIN THEIR HEY-DAY. POINT NINEZ VERBAL ATTACKS ON COOKIE CUTTER RAPPERS ARE VERY APPARENT. KEEPING TO HIS HIPHOP ROOTS, THIS IS A STRONG TRACK.

4. JADAKISS - NONE OF YALL BETTER- STRONG DELIVERY AND GREAT BEAT. IT HAS THE SOUND OF AN ALCHEMIST TRACK. LYRICAL CONTENT IS ON POINT. A VERY NICE TRACK FOR HIPHOP HEADZ. VERY SHORT. WISH IT WAS LONGER.

5. WE JUST FUCKIN- VERY FUNNY INTRO. SPIT TO "I JUST WANNA FUCK U" BY DR.DRE. GOOD TAKE ON THIS CLASSIC JOINT. POINT NINE IS PUTTING HIS TWO CENTS IN ON THE HOE GAME. STRONG LYRICS GOOD DELIVERY.

6. SURPLUS- DROPPIN WITH MENACING ORGANS. STRONG STRING LEAD. BEAT IS A LITTLE REPETITIVE, BUT POINT NINEZ FLOW IS STILL STEADY. COULD HAVE BEEN STRONGER FOR THE TITLE TRACK, BUT NONE THE LESS STILL A GOOD TRACK.

7. RIDE WITH ME- AN EXPLAINATION OF ALL THE THINGS POINT NINE SEEMS TO ENJOY. HE PAINTS PICTURES OF SEDUCING WOMEN IN FLY WHIPS, BUMPIN MUSIC AND SPENDING CASH. KIND OF A LITTLE HYPOCRITICAL OF TRACKS 2 AND 3, BUT WE CAN EXCUSE THAT BECAUSE WE AS HUMANS ARE HYPOCRATES. THE TRACK IS OKAY BUT NOT AS STRONG AS THE BEGINING TRACKS.

8. MY LOVE- POINT NINE COVERING A TIMBALAND BEAT FROM JUSTIN TIMBERLAKES "MY LOVE". I GOT TO CALL HIM OUT ON THE "MIXTAPE MESSIAH" LINE BECAUSE WE ALL KNOW THATZ CHAMILLIONAIRE. SORRY PIMP. HOWEVER POINT NINE HAS A VERY NICE SMOOTHE FLOW OVER THE BEAT. THE TRACK CAME OUT PRETTY GOOD, BUT THE HOOK KIND OF FALLS OFF TOWARDS THE END.

9. I'M A DICK- ANOTHER MIXTAPE TRACK TO A SOUTHERN CLASSIC. POINT NINE COMING HARD ON THIS (LITERALLY). GREAT METHAPHORE USE AND JOVIAL. PLENTY OF PUNCH LINES AND GREAT DELIVERY. HIS HARD BACKPACK STYLE SHINES HARD ON THIS ONE. GOOD JOB.

10. COKE DEALER- PROFESSOR DANK INTRO ON A JEEZY CLASSIC "GO GETTA". FLEXING HIS LYRICAL DEMINOR ABOUT WHITE GIRL. GOTTA LOVE A TRACK ABOUT YAYO. TONY MONTANA WOULD BE PROUD. LOVED THE LYRICS.

11. WHATEVER IT TAKES- NOT THE BEST BEAT IN THE WORLD BUT POINT NINE STILL DRIVEZ A HARD STYLE FLOW. IN MY OPINION VERY REPETIVE BEAT AND SIMPLE. ONE OF THE WEAKEST TRACKS ON THE MIXTAPE BY FAR. SOUNDS MORE FILLER THAN ANYTHING.

12. FAVORITE THINGS (SNIPPET)- CARS CLOTHEZ DIAMOND RINGZ!!! NICE BEAT. PRETTY PIMPIN LAID BACK BANGER. POINT NINE SPITS A PHRESH FLOW THAT IS PUT TOGETHER WELL. HOPE 2 HEAR THE FINISHED VERSION LATER.

13. BANK MONEY FEAT. FETTI POFOUN- LACED ON THE "MONEY IN THE BANK" INSTRUMENTAL BY IKE DIRTY. POINT NINE COMEZ WITH A LIL BIT MORE BOUNCE ON THIS ONE AND CUT HIS VERSE UP VERY NICE. ITS HAS BECOME VERY CLEAR AT THIS POINT IN THE MIXTAPE THAT WE BECOME AWARE POINT NINE IS AN ASSHOLE. LOL. FETTI PROFOUN HAS A SURPRISING FEATURE AND DROPS A HOT VERSE THATS SO SWAGGED OUT. I DIG THAT KIDZ STYLE. I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR MORE. IT A DOPE TWIST ON A LIL SKRAPPY JOINT. I ENJOYED ALOT.

14. KANYE WEST (THROUGH THE WIRE)- A SMALL SNIPPET OF WHAT SEEMS TO BE A GOOD FLOW ON THIS KANYE CLASSIC. WISH I COULD HAVE HEARD THE WHOLE THING BUT NONE THE LESS A GOOD SAMPLE.

15. DO 4 LOVE- SPIT OVER THE OLD TUPAC JOINT. A BALLAD ABOUT POINT NINES LOVE LIFE WITH HIS OTHER HALF. A GREAT POINT OF VIEW FROM HIS END ON BEING A SUCKER FOR LOVE. THIS IS A GREAT JOINT. EVERY VERSE HAD A POINT AND EVERY VERSE MADE YOU PICTURE WHAT WAS GOIN ON. THATS WHY I LOVE SONGS THAT EXPRESS TRUE HUMAN EMOTION. THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF THAT. GREAT WAY TO MAKE PEOPLE VISION YOUR WORDZ. SEND ME THE MP3 TO KRIZZYPHRESH@YAHOO.COM I WANT TO FEATURE THIS TRACK.

16. LIVE NOW- I LOVE THE WAY THIS CAT JUST EXPRESSES HIMSELF IN THE BEGINNING OF THIS ONE. POINT NINE GOES HARD HERE SENDING A POSITIVE MESSAGE. HE DEFINATELY PUTS HIMSELF OUT THERE AS AN ARTIST. THIS AN AWESOME TRACK TO REPRESENT THE ARIZONA BACKPACK HIPHOP MOVEMENT. THE BEAT ON THIS TRACK IS REALLY SMOOTH AND KILLER. NICE AND LAYED BACK VIBE TO SMOKE TO. BRINGS THAT OLD SCHOOL FLAVOR BLENDED WITH THAT NEW SCHOOL.

17. YOU DONT KNOW ME- BEAT REMINDS ME OF THE BEATNUTS. REMEMBER THOSE GUYZ? THIS BEAT SEEM TO NEED MORE DRUMS BUT YOU KNOW WHAT POINT NINE KILLS IT ANYWAY. THIS WHITE BOY CAN RIP IT UP. HE GOES HARD LYRICALLY HERE. IT HAS AN UNDERGROUND NY FEEL. OLD MOBB DEEP STYLE BUT POINT NINE DOES GET GRIMIER THAN HE DID IN PAST TRACKS.

18. LYFE IS A RIDE- BEAT IS A SOUTHERN TYPE SLOW BANGER. POINT NINE SKIPS FROM SUBJECT TO SUBJECT BUT I GUESS THATS WHAT HAPPENS IN LIFE. ITS A GOOD TRACK BUT NOT ONE THE MIXTAPES BEST. WORTH GIVING A LISTEN THOUGH.

19. NO TIME- THE BEAT SEEMS VERY JUMBLED AND NOT VERY ORGANIZED. THE WEAKEST TRACK ON THE ALBUM, HE SEEM TO BE JUST RAPPIN FOR THE SAKE OF RAPPIN AND HIS HOOK ISNT HIS BEST ON THIS ONE. I DID NOT LIKE THIS TRACK BUT SOME THINGS JUST ARENT FOR ME.

20. MY LAST SONG FEAT. CHRIS HEINZ- A GOOD WAY TO END THE ALBUM. BEAT IS VERY LAID BACK AND YOU CAN BOUNCE TO IT. AN EXPLINATION OF WHAT POINT NINE WOULD DO IN HEAVEN. GREAT HOOK. A VERY STRONG TRACK. CHRIS HEINZ FEATURE WAS A GOOD ONE. HE HAS A GREAT WAY OF APPROACHING THE DELIVERY OF HIS VERSE. GOOD METHAPHORES. VERY PHRESH.

FINAL ANALASYS: ITS A GREAT MIXTAPE FOR ALL AZ HIPHOP HEADZ. NOT ON A HARDCORE RAP FANS LIST BUT ITS DEFINATELY SOMETHING FOR ALL THE BACKPACK RAPPERZ AND HIPHOPERZ TO ENJOY. I RECOMMEND A LISTEN. THIS MIXTAPE STARTS STRONG AND ENDZ ON A STRONG NOTE. ALL TOGETHER POINT NINEZ "SURPLUS" HAS A GREAT APPROACH TOWARDS REDEFINING OLD SCHOOL WITH NEW SCHOOL. POINT NINE SHOWS HE CAN BRING IT ON HOOKS AS WELL AS VERSES. THIS MIXTAPE IS A GREAT ADDITION TO THE UNDERGROUND HIPHOP MOVEMENT. IF YOUR A HIPHOP HEAD GIVE IT LISTEN. IT WONT HURT. ITS FREE.
