Review - Tiron's Mustard
Posted by Belvi on Jul 19, 2010

Mustard is Tiron's newest project, and, in almost every way, is more refined and mature than the project that preceded it. Though his style still relishes a bit in an early Kanye West flavor, the production is almost Roots-esque. Each instrumental has an organic sound as though it were live recorded in a motown studio. Song to song the album is appealing but leaves something to be desired in the realm of delivery and rhyme scheme. Tiron counter balances any lack in polish with creative and witty themed songs such as "1ne", a song tied together by the repeated, unique use of the word one. And he still bears the mark of humility in his rap that continues on his every-man feel he had on Ketchup with sons like "60901", dedicated to his hometown, Chicago. Features are minimal at just 3: Ayomari on "Ms. Right" and Blu and Asher Roth on "The Richers." Though normally seeing the names Blu and Asher Roth would raise eyebrows as well as interest, their effect is marginal and somewhat underwhelming. Nonetheless, if you're interested in a project to let ride when you're trying to unwind, cool down, or even pacify you to sleep, Tiron's Mustard is just the thing to snack on.
