Diggy - Past Presents Future (Mixtape review)



The fact that the young kid Diggy was able to do this mixtape with DJ Premier speaks volumes. DJ Premiere is a legend and Diggy seriously didnt let him down on this one. Diggy takes some of the best old beats and spits over them like he's a veteran. He starts it off over the Nas Is Like beat and continues to take you on a ride through hip hop history. I cant help but to compare Diggy to his mentor Lupe Fiasco. You can definitely tell thats one of his biggest influences. This kid has the potential to be one of the best lyricists in the game. This mixtape is seriously fire and the only thing I can say bad about it is that its only about 30 minutes long.
You can say that hip hop is in his blood since he is the son of Run from Run DMC and like DJ Premier says in the intro, the apples doesnt fall far from the tree.
