Rusko – Jahova

Rusko – Cockney Thug (Caspa Remix)

Kid Sister – Pro Nails (Rusko Remix)

So I know the Kid Sister album has been out for a while now (after being pushed back time and time again), but I just got around to listening to it now. I was really enamored with her when I first came across her music for the first time, almost a year ago, but after listening to “Right Hand Hi” earlier this summer, I have to admit I was disappointed. Yeah, it had a more danceable beat, but it was annoyingly repetitive, and hardly lived up to any of my fave Kid Sis songs. So perhaps I was too quick to judge having only heard one track, but the verdict still stands. The production is flawless (hello, A-Trak is her boyfriend), but a lot of the rhymes are lackluster, and at times her singing could really use some help. This is especially painful for me, because I really want to love Kid Sister, there are so few females holding it down in the hip-hop industry, and even fewer that can write a whole song about nails that is actually worthwhile. I kind of wish that she had taken even more time crafting these songs, as I know that she is capable of greatness (In my mind, “Get Fresh” is immaculate). That being said, I was generally unimpressed by most of the previously unreleased tracks on the album, except for “54321″, which is delightfully catchy. Kid Sister still has a place in my heart, but she’ll have to pull out something amazing with her next album to truly win it back.
