On this review I will be reviewing the new 'Nines' album which was released on the 20th April 2018. It's the second studio album from 'Nines' called "Crop Circle".
Nines also known as Courtney Freckleton is an English rapper hailing from Harlesden, north west London. He is also known as 'Nina With The Nina' it like his nickname. I discovered 'Nines' last year when he blew up with his debut album "One Foot Out" which I thought was a decent album. He started making music in 2012. He dropped his first Mixtape in late 2012 "From Church Road To Hollywood" which is his earlier mixtapes. I have only heard a few of his Mixtapes. I thought some of his mixtapes were decent for example I liked his second mixtape "Gone Till November" I thought it was a great mixtape with some good bangers. He is an active member of the rap collective "CRS/ICB/CSB" (Church Road Soldiers/Ice City Boyz/Crime Scene Boyz) alongside with his crew 'Likkle T", "Skrapz", "Fatz", "Keyz", "Trapstar Toxic", "Streetz Inch", "Supa", "Fundz" and many more. Discussing more about his discography he has released two albums. His debut album "One Foot Out" which I thought was a decent debut album with good bangers. Such as "High Roller" featuring 'J Hus', "Nervous", "Hoes" featuring 'Tiggas Da Author' and many more. His debut album "One Foot Out" is an example of what British Hip Hop should definitely sound like. It's a strong debut album. Which now bring us to his new album after a year since "One Foot Out" was released. After hearing his new album "Crop Circle" what did I think of it? Another great album I enjoyed it. 'Nines' delivers a great rap album. Great bangers such as "Pictures In A Frame", "Eagles", "Haze", "Tony Soprano" and many more. I like his flows on the entire album.
My favourite tracks on the album starting with "Pictures In A Frame" His flows were awesome on this track. Great flows on this track. "Rubber Bands" featuring 'Ray BLK', and 'Skrapz' great track great collaboration from one of his friends 'Skrapz' and the amazing talented 'Ray BLK'. "Eagles" featuring 'Fundz'. Their flows are too good on this track. Production is decent. "Haze" this one is defintley a banger. Great track great flows. They both do very well on this track. "Tony Soprano" his flows are too good it's one of the strongest tracks on the album. "Venting" featuring 'Dave' Dave does well on this track so as 'Nines' as well it's a decent track. "Re-Up" featuring 'Trapstar Toxic' this track is decent good collaboration. "Cash Interlude" which is the last track on the album I liked his flows on this one it's too dope. My least favourite track was "Make It Up 2 U" which features 'Haile Wstrn' the track does really stand out like the others. It's not that bad.
Overall I loved this album I thought it was a good album. It's an example of great British Hip Hop. I would listen to the album again. I am giving this album an 8/10 defintley a contender for my Top 20 Best Albums Of 2018.
