Has anyone else noticed that the melody in "Freestylin'" is a total rip of DJ Resists' "Guiding Light"? I mean, maybe they're both sampling some other song I'm not aware of, but I don't think so. Smells like a lawsuit...
That being said, "Guiding Light" is better. This isn't bad, but isn't all that impressive either. In the initial breakdown it goes into the rather moving melody and then scatches out with some dude comicly yelling "Hey, what are you tryin' to do?! You ruined my record, man! I just bought it!" That's pretty funny, although the rest of the tune is more serious, so it doesn't exactly fit. Would've been better in a more light-hearted, upbeat tune.
"Acid Bath" is pretty good, but I love me some acid. There's lots of it too! The extended melody breakdown towards the end is kind of boring, but I'd normally mix out of the tune long before that anyway.
