Koga YOKAI'S All Star Sessions Album Review


Music is an art form and like food many people have different taste. When I went into this album review of Koga Yokai's ALL STAR SESSION I didn't know what to expect. Koga Yokai aka Calvin Lane has been rapping for five years and is the leader of the EAST TRIBE YOKI CLAN. I just like saying that on some Naruto shyt. Im from the YOKI CLAN lol. Anyway like trying new foods, or different foods you never really know what its gonna taste like until you taste it. Likewise with this album I kept an open mind and just zoned out...

Whats the verdict? ALL STAR SESSION SOUNDS PRETTY DAMN DOPE... The production is A1 imagine young soulful Kanye West, with the sampling pedigree of Charles Hamilton and the smooth crooning of the best soul and r&b songs.
(speaking of Charles Hamilton...Koga and Mr.HaMileTen) Then with that imagery mix some pure and bashful honesty about putting your all into a relationship with the best intentions and watching it fall apart because of various reasons such as, infidelity,immaturity, and different passions and boom you have the recipe for ALL STAR SESSIONS. 

All Star Sessions is an abstract and mature way of dealing with that situation and not being spiteful but reflective on what could have been. The tape is so smooth you really can sit and listen to the whole tape especially if you got your headphones in and your at a computer or just looking for something to bump at night before you catch some ZZZ's, its actually very soothing which goes back to Koga's A1 production, rhyme schemes, and slightly distorted and reverbed hooks.

My favorite tracks from the tape are EVOL, Morning, Dope, Get Doe, & Holding Hands...Listen for yourself tho and let me know what your feelings are about ALL STAR SESSIONS by KOGA YOKAI.
