TiRon – MSTRD (Review)

TiRon

MSTRD

Released by Mixtape


From the looks of it, people are starting to get it. Of course there are people out there that live for albums or mixtapes or whatever to drop with ‘lebbindy-hundred tracks, but it seems like when that phenomena occurs, there is way too much filler to wade through. It is evident, however, that TiRon does not believe in bloated projects; MSTRD is all killer and no filler. Ten songs these days are not a lot, but that is the great thing about this project. With the number being as it is, each track has no choice but to mean something- and they do. And with everything being condensed and nothing being watered down, TiRon can do what he does best: tell his story.
