BAWSKEE 3.5 Is a upgrade from the previous two in the BAWSKEE series. The first four sounds are aggressive banging songs, RASPUTIA just doesn’t work as well as HENCH MAFIA, GODDONTLIKEUGLY, and FIND HIM! Than STAND comes in and is softer but still the same violent lyrics and aggressive delivery expected from Comethazine. SOLVED THE PROBLEM comes in right after and brings up a more playful beat and entertaining lyrics. Next comes in NO EVIDENCE to JUST SAYING which all are the same Comethazine style song. The second to last track ACT is more like his older 2017 SoundCloud rap which is calmer. Lastly comes TOUCHED which comes in with a less aggressive delivery but violent lyrics. All of this combines to produce the expected Comethazine style mixtape, violent, aggressive, and banging songs. The album doesn’t have any message other than don’t fuck with Comethazine which is always a entertaining album. Quick bars filled with funny and dark lyrics complement the beats usually. Paired with no features the mixtape becomes bland at the end and the songs begin to blend together but luckily for him he ended it before it became to repetitive. Throughout this project Comethazine stays the same mostly with his lyrics. You can see this throughout the album, with lyrics like "Where the bricks, where the bows? 1-7-double-O, slither gang, bloody nose" from SOLVED THE PROBLEM and Just Saying where he states "If you ain't got no diamonds on your neck, then how you drippin' then, And if you ain't pourin' up and sippin' Tech, then what you sippin' on? ". Comethazine does show some signs of growth lyrically in songs, for example on TOUCHED he raps "They hit Mickey D's and then ordered some shakes, Ain't order no food, 'cause I don't eat there". This shows that he can talk about more than killing people. This albums production is handled by very trap based producers like div, ChildBoy, KCSupreme, and many more. The production is handled very well on most songs, on GODDONTLIKEUGLY the low bass kicking off the start and following the song until the end makes the song feel more eerie. By the end of the album the similar bass patterns get very repetitive however. Similar 808's or very deep bass can be heard throughout the project. Overall I did enjoy most of the production other than the echoing on STAND which songs very manufactured and overproduced. The different flows and deliveries Comethazine use all always helpful to his songs as I don't think I could make it through the album with out a serious delivery paired with lyrics about nutting on someones eye. This always brings humor to the album, this helps it. I enjoyed the cadences used, but it could be improved a lot. For example when having such a shadow-like delivery on some songs Comethazine should try to pair that with a bouncing delivery to distinguish it apart from his other songs as he always has a aggressive cadence with his music. Comethazine had no concept or idea on this album other than don't fuck with me. This album is also continuing a series of projects which helps the score because it shows he had some idea of what he was doing. Throughout this project Comethazine goes from having banging trap songs to literally no instrumental, he also incorporates tweaked flows and deliveries which he tweaks just enough so it seems like a new one. I did enjoy this album even if it sounds like I don't. I do enjoy Comethazine's style and sound but I am warning that it will get over saturated if he doesn't switch it up soon. Overall this is a good album by Comethazine but in the future I would like to see him branch out and create a wider range of topics, styles, and beats. His past 4 albums and ep’s have all been the same kind of topic, style, and beats. This album he does improve but for him to continue to make waves or become bigger than he needs to talk about more in his songs.
