This is a model new collaborative EP between from New York emcees The Musalini & Wais P totally produced by Boston veteran Statik Selektah. One of whom has been signed to Jamla Records for the previous few years now just lately releasing a sequel to Pure Izm produced by Khrysis & the opposite additionally put out an EP with Khrysis final yr known as Hocaine. We’ve solely heard them collectively as soon as on a Planet Asia single final summer season, so them uniting on Choose or Lose was thrilling as a fan of Mu$ & Statik.

“Can a Player Live?” kicks all of it off with a bluesy growth bap instrumental speaking about endlessly gliding with no roadblocks of any type in sight whereas “Return of the Mack” goes for an orchestrally dusty vibe to take us by means of the angle of pimps. “How to Knocka” reveals listeners the correct strategy to knock a bitch down holding it within the basement instrumentally simply earlier than “Live in the Flesh” silkily takes about bringing it reside & direct.

To get the 2nd half began, “4 Real” clarifies that you just’re fucking with 2 of the perfect MCs out at the moment sustaining a uncooked growth bap edge main into the synthesizer heavy “Cashmere Coast” as soon as once more flexing that they’re useless good. “Sake Bombs” brings some refreshing organs into the fold speaking about their statuses being already solidified & “Pimpin’ Saved” ends with a warning that Mu$’ subsequent LP might probably get him banned.

If followers of both or have ever puzzled what The Musalini & Wais P would sound like doing an entire total physique of labor with each other, Choose or Lose collides each worlds with each other over wealthy growth bap manufacturing from the Showoff Records founder himself Statik Selektah to supply the participant protocol of operating to the sport as an alternative of operating away from it.

Score: 8/10
