SETTHETONE-T & Wrekkaluyah - Ready Set Wrek (EP)
Warning! I don’t know what you thought you were walking into when you pressed play on this but this is not no Wreck It Ralph bullshit that the kids will enjoy, this ain’t no family fun, it’s truly brutal music! I can already see the faces of the opps filled with sheer terror, their hearts falling clean out their asses as they are taken aback once they see Wrekka slide up on them unannounced with his “Seat Back”, just for a split second before everything goes black for them cause this man, if you don’t already know, which shame on you if you don’t, is battle tested & more than eager to eliminate anything in his way. One little snide ass remark will be like stepping on a landmine! The reason I say all this is cause, when I’m referring to the opps, I’m referring to those individuals who want what you got. Who will do everything with what little power they have to keep you from ascending towards your blessings simply because they haven’t found a way to inch up the incline. Why do all that when you can easily just listen & heed the game Wrek is lacing you with? Free of charge at that! Who knows but I don’t feel the slightest inkling of sorrow for anyone who feels personally attacked by the statements he’s standing firmly on. Also, the syllable play is fucking wreckless in all the best ways! And allow JT to SET the record straight, you old heads, & you know exactly who you are, have no say so in him surpassing you & the funny thing is, you’ve been doing it longer but he’s been doing it the right way & better! This run he’s been on has been immaculate & that’s putting it lightly cause there’s still so much more on the way! The man is a real life superhero (or supervillain depending on how you look at it) to continuously shatter these glass ceilings, surely pissing off the architects who continuously try to put up barriers like how the fuck does he keep breaking through them!? Just when they thought they could keep him down, here he comes & here they go “oh no, not this guy again!” You’re goddamn right! (Walter White voice).
Trust me, their momentum does not ease up on “Reposado”, which why would anyone leave the bottle lying around these two?! One shot each & here they go, raising the bar, literally! This record is here is once again jam packed with punches, with each MC catching each other’s bars & running with it & just the camaraderie of this tag team, it’s impossible to not feel it! It’s like, you’re already defeated from the first joint & now this one, it’s like you keep trying to get back up but one second SET’s punching you & the next, Wrek is kicking you back down like fuck, at least give me a change to defend myself brothers! It’s one of those records that’s surely gonna leave you discombobulated! As severely beaten as you’ll be at this point, just tattered & torn, these gentlemen are still on the rampage once we get to the finale in the title track.
It’s road rage whenever these two are on a track together, a crash course you were never prepared for & next thing you know, you’re flying out the window like one of those test dummies soon to hit the wall from the head on collision. It’s not their fault you’re a terrible driver, you should’ve been keeping your eyes on the road for what lied ahead. Either way you were fucked cause even if you managed to swerve out their way as they were hurling towards you, you still would’ve lost control of the wheel. I guess you can say that rappers are NOT having a “Good Year” ever since SET let it be known that he is not letting up on the gas anytime soon! That hook from Wrek on this one is enough to crush you with ease before you even get to his verse! You may as well just park inside one of those compact machines cause it’d be a better fate than to have to then face the monstrosity that is G-Dolla, who delivers what is arguably the most colossal verse on this project. It’s that voice man, once you hear it, you just know it’s clobbering time! If you needed any motivation to hit the gym or honestly just fuck up anybody who may need it, these three tracks will certainly grant you the strength to do just that! Not gonna lie, I would’ve loved more than three from these two but truthfully, I barely survived three myself so let’s hope you can manage to crawl away from the ruins these two left behind with this one & don’t forget send prayers over to the next town these two decide to hit as they are now onto a new path of destruction!
