Donnis - Diary of an Atlanta Brave


I was looking at the 2010 XXL freshman list today, which to be honest and XXL say themselves was barely a freshman list (it included Wiz Kalifa 7 mixtapes you can't really class as a freshman, OJ da Juiceman's already been on the cover of XXL and J Cole, if you're under Jay Z's wing you're hardly a freshman but then Drake made 09 so....) anyway I saw Donnis who for some reason I'd missed before and I'd never heard this mixtape. It's interesting a little bit generic in places but he has a nice flow, reminds me of Big Sean in places but without the laziness. Some of the beats are definitely Big Sean-esque but it's got a feel good style, and I was suprised I actually liked it Southern rappers arent usually my thing. Underdog's highpoint of the album for me, it's a shame Country Cool straight after it reminds me why I dont listen to southern rappers. Worth a listen just for Underdog though.

"So Cudi's On the Moon and Drake's So Far Gone, I'm Finally Famous like my boy Big Sean"
