Bo$$ feat. Mer5e (Mer-see) [Prod. by Rexx Beats] Review
Ehllis

Instrumentals: 9.5
Delivery (Flow/Song Progression): 8
Originality(Are the lyrics unique?): 8

Instrumentals:

The instrumentals to the song are unique and contain a lot of well placed snares, a unique synth sound that constantly helps the lyrics flow clearly and can easily be defined as full of energy. The bass hits hard when played on large speakers, and makes the song even that much better. When the quick bass hits it will literally shake your body make you bob your head.

The only thing that I felt the instrumentals were lacking were drops. The song has stops, but a continuous snare line and progression. In my own opinion, when the song stopped, it would have been extremely interesting and close to perfect if the bass fell off and came back in quickly. This would have caught the attention of any listener and got them hype quickly and kept it steady throughout until it occurred again, or the beat dropped using snare, or a dropping bass line.

Delivery:

The hook is full of energy and the transition between the low voice (Who I believe to be Mer5e) is that of most gangsta and dirty south rappers that make the genre extremely popular. When Ehllis jumps in his voice is completely different that that of Mer5e which makes it even that more interesting and appealing, and also the grunts that he uses catch you attention because his tone is much lower than that of Ross', who is known for his grunts in his cocky street songs. When the two voices overlap, they even seem to have that "Ross affect" that makes you bob your head as well.

The flow of both artists is appealing in the fact that is switches up with each verse, and even during the hook at certain points. Mer5e's verse  is even more interesting in a delivery sense in the fact that he spits fast and clearly so that every word is heard (something that is hard for some rappers to maintain) for an example think of Busta Rhymes.

The song progression is excellent in the fact that the two artists are able to successfully describe situation in which they are bosses and that they are pleased with the fact that they are in such situation instead of being "On a bus route with a baby mama gettin cussed out".  Ehllis also describes that no matter what, signed or not, he will always feel that he is a boss. This is a prime example of a self-confident street track (To give it a title).

Originality:

The songs lyrics are unique and seem to have creative and descriptive analogies that allow for them to describe the way they feel through multiple mediums be it looking in the mirror, feeling that they are bosses even if they obtain a record deal or not, they feel like Bruce Wayne, being tar babies, and so forth. The analogies are unique and stand out due to their uncommonness in common rap music as well as the mainstream.

In conclusion, the song is a unique, cocky, self-esteem street anthem that contains catchy instrumentals, a well-defined hook, and one that the fans will enjoy. However, if the artists wish to keep their fans attention, they must continue to release tracks such as this, and keep the fans coming back and begging for more no matter what. I personally enjoyed the song, and would love to hear more from the artists individually to fully be able to tell if I am a fan of their music or not. The previous statement is not meant to definite, nor talk down to the artists, just my thoughts at the current time.
