bigsto reviews - rapsody's "she got game" review lyrics

there’s really no reason to introduce rapsody, because people are finally starting to wake up to her talent. last year she released her debut album “the idea of beautiful” which was given rave reviews by a lot of people (including myself). how do you follow up such a stellar release? rapsody did it in the form of the “she got game” mixtape

honestly i’m just going to give you what i think of the tape as a whole right now. with “she got game” rapsody just went ahead and gave you guys a free album. this a hip-hop fans album, the beats aren’t overly complex but they pay homage to the soulful era of hip hop. rapsody as always is in top form. mixtapes these days just have the emcee spitting some lame freestyles, rapsody is coming with strong concepts and rhymes that won’t just have you saying she ripped it but doing some reflecting and thinking on your behalf

the tape starts with “a song about nothing” i suppose while sitting down and thinking about it, it is a story about nothing. however if you listen she tells a story about her past when she was playing basketball and how due to the criticism and lack of belief from others she gave up. she equated this to her hip-hop career, she’s faced something of the same criticism, her reaction on the other hand instead of giving up is to prove them wrong. and my fellow g*niuses she has done just that

while rapsody has proved her talent on the microphone, what she hasn’t done is let it go to her head. joints like “special way” and “thank you very much” pays respect and homage those (good and bad) who have made her the person and emcee that she is today. rapsody doesn’t just grab the mic to rip a couple verses and then bounce. rather she wants people to know her story and be motivated to chase your dreams and make moves

love is another topic that is prevalent on this tape. “love after all” and “feels like (love love)” and if you’ve listened to rapsody’s past music we’ve heard the pain that she’s felt during her past relationships. these songs however show the brighter side of possibly new relationships? either way we hear a positive side to love and it’s refreshing and encouraging to hear in a genre usually showered with misogyny and broken hearts

as i talked about earlier rapsody doesn’t just speak meaninglessly at you, she encourages a call to action and her guests do the same. “dark knights” is a banger of a joint where rapsody tears her verse to shreds through numerous superhero references. and out of nowhere wale comes through with i think one of the best verses he’s spit since he did that joint with the roots a couple years back (awaits flack from fanboys and girls). “complacent” was another joint where guest emcee problem drops a great verse talking about his struggle. rap continues to spit on how she’s aiming for the top and not letting anyone stop her. truly inspiring music here mmy g*niuses

i would cover “jedi code” featuring phonte and jay electronica, but i really shouldn’t have to. listen to it. now

i said it at the beginning of the review, rapsody went ahead and just gave her fans an amazing album for free. at the time of writing this there’s already an itunes release planned with some bonus material. for now please go cop this album, it’s one of the best releases of the summer. rapsody comes correct song after song. guests bring nothing but their a-game. my only gripe (and it’s a tiny one) is the production isn’t super complex, however there isn’t really anything wrong with it because it still bangs and the beats are diverse. the usual suspects of the soul council handle the majority of the production and will have your head-nodding. to be honest you should’ve stopped reading this review after the second paragraph but if you stayed with me, thank you but go cop #shegotgame
