Isaiah Rashad - Cilvia Demo Album Review | DEHH

[@adamcarter185]

Thank you Mykectown for saving this review, i was smh til your part of the review you got it. Isaiah Rashad is basically Kendrick Lamar without a father in his life.

[@heyQui]

He the only one that understood it

[@imsteezy1]

Ctown saves all the reviews

[@jctheii]

Facts bro, he got it right

[@moecash8450]

No cap 🧢

[@ParoArtPixie]

Right now I think Heavenly Father is my favourite track.

[@yeezusjm]

ShatterGlassProject Soliloquy is my favorite

[@csmith3x16]

10 years later, classic

[@Genetikrs]

This is a great tape, not good or average, it's GREAT, since the day it dropped I have not gone a day without playing it back to front.

Have you made your daily listen today?

[@jflabella11]

This has high replay value so far for me... more than most hip hop releases over the past few months. Beats and rhymes are not complex, but they're on point.. and the flow is like butter. Good project.

[@will3pr]

Bro 6 years later, this album is still in my rotation HEAVY!!! This is Top 3 TDE Albums to me.

[@nicetryalive11]

Soliloquy IS bar for bar one of the best rap songs out right now. He completely -not kind of -COMPLETELY murdered that shit

[@16JayChris]

The album has a nostalgic 90s southern hip hop vibe to it. His storytelling, wordplay, personification and punchlines he draws you in. My favorite songs were Webbie Flow, RIP Kevin Miller, West Savannah, Tranquility, Menthol, Heavenly Father, Modest, and Banana

[@Njatwon]

Mine was every song on the album 😂😂😂😂

[@andyh2343]

Not gonna lie, I just came across your videos for the first time tonight & 4 hours later I'm still watching your reviews. You guys are too dope for giving us your time like this.

[@dustinlangley3070]

I still play this album a lot

[@SwaggaNeal]

same.Its a new experience each listen

[@benvarney]

Dustin Langley it's one of those albums where the fact you know it so well, makes you connect closer with it

[@Ayplus]

Ok i'm back. Myke was right. This is a nearly flawless project. It took a while for it 2 set in for me. I had to keep listening 2 it and now I get it.

[@jrbmdemon]

Thank you Myke for realising how great this project is... and F* Fantano's review

[@talaf6616]

Little did they know this album is a classic

[@Chris-w8r7y]

Tala Fondungallah it isnt lol

[@talaf6616]

404 you'll see bruh

[@Chris-w8r7y]

Tala Fondungallah explain, what is this album going to change. What is groundbreaking about this project? Not every good project is a classic.

[@talaf6616]

404 you'll only realize it's a classic with time, I think it is because I feel like it'll be a good project no matter what era or time period you put it in. But I can see how you don't think it is a classic now, but you will see

[@gkay8889]

@@talaf6616 u right

[@lukejamesbgn]

Love this album. This and Black Hystori Project are my 2 favorite albums out so far this year.

[@Darth-Turtle]

Almost a decade later and this project is still amazing, so raw and layered it takes you to a whole other planet

[@Jamespolanc]

Gota get Modest Media on all the other TDE reviews

[@jaywilkinson3522]

It took like 6 years for this to really grow on Me and really click after having bought it back in 2014 on iTunes and now I think it's a great project.

[@bsolo95]

thank you mike for expressing only 50% of my emotions of how great i think this album is. and putting me on RTJ

[@PurpleLionRs]

Trying to figure out how he didn't catch the R.I.P Kevin Miller/ Master P references. It was mentioned so many times throughout the song. Not blatant references but they are there. And yeah this his first project.

[@blak7469]

He had a mixtape, Welcome to the Game

[@CASSOBLVCK]

Welcome to the game is a fan made mixtape

[@freshprince5428]

+BLVCK LORD are you sure? i thought i saw it on itunes

[@CASSOBLVCK]

+Fresh Prince I'm almost positive

[@freshprince5428]

[@minifrank30]

west savannah feat SZA ... thats the song where Isaiah is singning

[@34LilScript34]

Isaiah Rashad is def. one my top 5 rappers right now. Wish they knew about his compilation of songs on his mixtape Welcome To The Game though.

[@djwarzone1]

Man I just listened to it last night first time and I stopped doing what I was doing and just sat there in and listened to it front do back after being so emerged initially. Something about this dude is special. Like c town I had really low expectations so it's interesting how we both ended up seeing a great project

[@TimxJets]

I still have this Album in rotation

[@Grandmaster_Vic]

The hype for this dude's next project is going to be... BIG! Since a lot of people including myself LOVED Cilvia Demo. Favorite project of 2014

[@erronking7783]

This was better than these days this is still my 2nd favorite project of the year

[@naruto1coolestfan]

why do i see you everywhere now, im scared

[@ElMagoGuyo]

one of my favorite projects of 2014, i still revisit it every so often. isaiah's style is so smooth, he just glides over the tracks beautifully. so excited to see how he follows this up.

[@T3ddy96]

Respect for that T-Shirt Beezy! RIP Kevin Miller & DILLA

[@trainthetopchef]

Isaiah Rashad can't go outside of any comfort zone if there isn't an established "comfort zone" to go outside of. I also think he very purposefully called this project the Cilvia *DEMO*. I really liked it, and Kinge summed it up nicely at the end.

[@t-god2439]

That shot you down remix OMG g left earth on there

[@The_Catalyzt]

Thank you Myke for bigging up that good music. I'm STILL bumping this album, can't wait the new joint to drop so I can throw some money at dude. He's so criminally underrated right now. This new album and that TDE money will really get him going.

[@TheCurryBlast]

I agree with Myke, when I first heard this I thought it was dope af. I thought Rashad was a combo of Kendrick's flow, Jay Rock's lifestyle, and the album concept was similar to Schoolboy's Habits and Contradictions.

[@70cuevas]

me, like everyone-else i wasn't blown away but i liked the tape. but i think its a little unfair we were expecting a lot from isaiah, like he just started his rap career. the rest of tde started somewhere and now they're where they at now, isaiah has to start some where and we just gotta give him time to grow. but im'a go back and give the tape a couple of listens without trying to compare him to the rest of tde's rank.

[@C0llabB3ration]

Heavenly father was one of the standout tracks that blew me away, great review guys.

[@EynouxLaStar]

this mixtape was better than oxymoron and Im a big Q fan. This tape was dope. I like Modest, Menthol, Savannah a lot

[@kermitfig97]

Yall should go listen to tut- preachers son. another dope mixtape similar to this and hes from chattanooga too

[@Ayplus]

If Myke likes it, I must check it out

[@latinomusic954]

I agree with you i dont want to make it sound like i dick ride myke but his opinions on music are always deep and specific. i personally thought the album was ok but now i need to replay it a few times

[@jxhnAntxn]

Isaiah is so effortless in this new era he has these rappers sounding like the are trying too hard...

[@Nyx-ml5sr]

exactly

[@IC3BProductions]

Great review. I actually went into it with low expectations and I thought he was over hyped but after listening to it I was wrong.

[@DaFuture14]

chatt town we in here...cant wait til he and krit collab

[@mitchellbuckland3553]

My favourite 6 tracks in no particular order are: 1. Banana 2. R.I.P Kevin Miller 3. Heavenly Father 4. Modest 5. Shot You Down 6. Soliloquy

[@biller97]

Kidd Kulture Can you read?

[@El-vw7pt]

Banana?

[@mitchellbuckland3553]

GuerrerO 24\7 Banana is dope af

[@El-vw7pt]

+Mitchell Buckland REAL TALK!I always hear music with the lyrics to get a better understanding of the track,that shit that he spits on Banana,Fire!!!I see why its number one on your list.for real.

[@El-vw7pt]

Menthol bro,wassup wit that,you don't like?

[@marcost9129]

Yes. I’m still listening

[@KolydoscopeMusic]

21:35 you're thinking of West Savannah, Myke. What a good song. - President of Yo Momma's Bedroom Records

[@AnAngelAscending]

Myke yet again spitting the truth.

[@jeanlowe5908]

Restrained was the word you are looking for Feefo not Safe. if you listen to his lyrics in depth you can tell that he is holding back his best. In fact on " I shot you down" he says " why i got to bring my A game, you just D good". This Project was just him warming up and introducing us to the last two years of his life; from the relationship with his dad ( which most can relate to) to becoming a dad himself and having the fear of failing his son with the fame, pressure and money coming his way after he signed for TDE!

[@nicebergslim]

thanks for the review, didnt think you guys would like it as much as you did but i was surprised. hopefully you can review thedriveintheathre next

[@TheYanna2009]

@21:33 "West Savanna" That was risky! No one sings and kills it. Not to mention all the weird layers in the beat. And it was an Outkast tribute damn near. That Cilvia Demo is the truth but you have to be all ears.

[@MrKillerswamp]

defnitely really liked this project. when feefo said safe i was like what? but i defnitely agree with what mike said

[@divonteroberts2439]

Ronnie Drake was the first song I heard from this guy and I didn't think it was that good on my first listen but I got his album and I must admit I really enjoy this project. I can't wait to see what he comes out with next.

[@gr86er]

I agree with all these points. I knew he could spit cuz of I shot you down, hurt Cobain, and the cypher, but didn't know what exactly to expect but they did get me excited. This project left me the same way, I like the fact that every single the member has their own unique style and I feel Isaiah definitely showed his well.

[@ThePdmd1]

OMG thats exactly what I thought when I first heard this Southern Kendrick for real

[@fraicheness]

One of the best albums of the last ten years. Need more Isaiah!

[@ruairi9615]

As soon as webbie flow kicked in i was hooked, he has such presence, great review of a fantastic project

[@tune6000]

Favorite Project ever.

[@martinmoreno6281]

Hanston Solo Same

[@sgillard]

This is definitely my favourite project of the year so far, I know its only February but we'll see what can beat it.

[@YoDawgoneeleven]

Like Feefo I was expecting to be wowed. When he signed with a label that has four rappers who have wowed me with every release, I'd expect a classic. I think Cilvia Demo was that. A demo. Looking forward to what he does with more confidence in the future.

[@Shemzinho]

YoDawgoneeleven Bruh this Demo blew me away. Outstanding. Isiaiah's lyricism, his aggression and his flows? Ridiculous. This for me is top 5 TDE projects hands down

[@freshprince5428]

+YoDawgoneeleven you expected a classic? really?

[@SanJuanCreole]

Love this album! Great review!!!

[@mynameisurname1]

this is honestly my favorite project of the year so far. i cant stop playing it and its been like 8 months.

[@JoKeer80]

You know your young when you didn't know Bitches & Blunts / Weed & Money was a Master P hook, used to rock that hard.

[@tunedime]

I love love love this ep. Listen to it everyday.

[@a12smasher]

same here yo idk how u cant like this no matter what style u like this is true hip hop no matter what u like

[@rocket141]

Isaiah Rashad blew me away with this album. I'm too didn't have high expectation but during my first listen I was hooked. I can't wait to see what he has in store for the future.

[@CONCEPT_RXCH]

about to check it out now, thanks dudes.

[@The_Catalyzt]

Also, I heard about Isaiah Rashad through all the different music blogs that I follow. I looked him up, found some cobbled together mixtapes of his soundcloud songs, and was fucking with him BEFORE that cypher and before this mixtape. I hope you guys are following more music blogs now.

[@brianmora2254]

Album was amazing! Had to buy the signed CD off the TDE website lol

[@hbizzle8037]

I really enjoyed this review .. Chattanooga Tennessee stand up

[@bitbybit1231]

Thank you Mike! Webbie Flow was dope as helll, had me feeling a Korn vibe on a hiphop song.

[@TrellAliii]

Almost 4 years later and this is a classic imo

[@ScizRgaming]

thought myke might rip into it, seems a lot of people have found it boring. It has crazy amount of replay value for me, I love it and am super surprised so many people aren't feeling it. Pleasantly surprised by this review

[@koolkeith60]

Wow, c-town actually read my mind. I listened to this project for about a couple weeks straight before I saw this review and he's on exactly what I am on. Solioquy is also my favorite track its hard hitting fire.

[@TrutMrTrut]

besides that isaiah can spit his ass off, his singing voice is dope. y'all gotta listen to Warm Winds from SZA or even West Savannah on Cilvia.

[@thisisvarzity7708]

West Savannah, Brad Jordan, Modest, Ronnie Drake, and Menthol all great tracks

[@kobesan42]

Heavenly Father wasn't dope to you?

[@marcotorres7941]

+Laced Weed Banana, Modest, Brad Jordan, Shot You Down & Heavenly Father were the top tracks imo.

[@seanstroman6087]

I was most definitely appreciative of this project especially it being an EP by someone so unknown and that he has his own sound and that he can varied anywhere within his vocal range is dope. Can't wait to see what else has has to offer us as listeners cause like Myke I think this guy only going to move forward and this is his first major project and that's cool

[@ChivasBarcelonaMex]

I love this album. It's one of my favorites album to date.

[@takudzwaful]

Myke was on point with his comments!!

[@GodleeAK]

Maaaaaan. I loved this project and when everyone was saying it was okay i was like damn. But Mike came through. I agree 100% with you. I think Tranquility will be the song of the year for me. This project was incredible!

[@hugosanchez1168]

Myke is the only one who understands Isaiah Rashad greatness. Was bout to flip out until he started talking

[@TheSnackersDigest]

I had high expectations and he hit them completely. Before the release every single he put out was killing me so I kinda knew this project would be perfect for me. The contrast between being chilled and aggressive is on point. I love this album and i'm looking forward to seeing him live in May.

[@justindaniel1246]

Great review I agree that this is a great project. The album is cohesive, lyrical, and very original. Rashad had a mix tape out before this called Welcome to the Game.

[@jpkillah]

Love listening to this project in the morning, especially the Kevin Miller track just after waking up, and I really like the hook on Cilvia Demo. And Soliloquy is just hard AF, Imo best beat in the project.

[@RetroBailey]

I fuck with this project so fucking much. The production i think is fucking beautiful, and Isaiah Rashad has an incredible ability to flow in so many innovative ways and has such passion, spitting some fantastic lyrics. A perfect album.

[@Verniee601]

This is why Myke is THAT NIGGA Seems to be the only one to fully appreciate this great album. This was better than Oxymoron and pretty much every other project released in 2014 so far. Cocaine Piñata is the only album I'd put in the same league so far. Smh Feefo and Kinge, y'all need to re-evaluate your opinions before putting it out there sounding ignorant.

[@danube21pro]

I thought it was an AMAZING album, project, mixtape whatever it is. He kills it in Banana and I love the way he ended it with Shot You Down, great way to end it. He deserves a lot of recognition for his own style of rapping. He is going to be big no doubt about it

[@Jrhollis6]

You guys should discuss your expectations for upcoming releases.... oxymoron, yeezus 2, cocain pinatas among others....When they come out you can then address how they stacked up to your expectations.

[@YoDawgoneeleven]

I saw an interview where he said that the whole album was supposed to be like Soliloquy. Originally, this was going to be a demo tape down to the definition. 8 songs, all between 1:30-2:00 with no hooks, no features.

[@thaspydaman21]

I liked this project. I listened to Welcome to the Game so I knew it would have laid back beats but be lyrical easily my fav album so far. And judging from what's coming out lately it'll be up there in my top 5 end of tha year

[@KennyKicksMusic]

I agree with the last two guys that were interviewed. He really did make an unbelievable project. Bit if you heard his first mixtape you already knew what he had to offer.

[@Stemprehention5929]

After watching this review I am defiantly going to re listen to the album. The first time I listed I thought it was really boring

[@anwar267]

I think Myke was talking about West Savannah (the song where he's singing and sounds very mellow). That shit is sooo dope! He's shouting out Outkast with the title, and it sounds like something that could've been on Aquemini. He managed to pay homage to several southern hip-hop legends while making a debut album that all hsi own. RESPECT!! #TDE stay winning!!!

[@catucker2]

his style fits in perfectly with TDE i agree with myke this is the best thing i heard this year so far

[@Krazy101ism]

The song where he was almost singing was West Savannah (favorite track on this project)

[@chuckbilly907]

first 2 times I heard this I was not impressed and like Feefo I was not wowed. they weren't honest sit down and listen's and that was the problem . I think I was also wanting the production to grab me first and then the content. I loved the original Shot You Down and really enjoyed the remix. After listening to project more and watching your review and Needle Drop's I am really diggin' this. great job once again guys. TDE is the future!

[@iLLxBTR]

this project was amazing! Heavenly father was one of my favorite tracks on it

[@mattklimek2435]

Myke just reads my mind. I love this album.

[@Discord67]

I hope you guys review Prince Po's new album Animal Serum, Oh No's production is incredible.

[@duronPatriots]

He came out with a mixtape called Don't Call me a Rookie, its on DatPiff.

[@vladimirklizschko9337]

That title track though.....project of the year...................no fucking challenge

[@ThaLedg]

Isaiah is very talented and this was a very solid tape, i'd love him to change up his beats a bit to show people what he can do on other type of beats. Lyricly he has great bars, smart wordplay and storytelling. I own the 'welcome to the game' tape as well and both are great projects but both take a few times to listen to grown on you he's a really down-to-earth guy who really loves to rap. in the sway interview he did, he asked for more beats to freestyle on! i mean how many rappers do that? i've never seen an interview where a rappers said; "drop me another one man, i'm not done yet." lotta respect to Isaiah, keep on grinding!

[@JoshMosquea]

I loved Banana but the thing that threw me off about that track was his ad libs. It sounded like Lil B was doing his ad libs. TYBG btw!

[@Theraiman616]

Y'all better be doin THE DRiVE IN THEATRE soon.

[@dadocwarwick41]

It's hard not to hype any TDE project or anyone signed simply because they don't load up the roster so it feels like to even be a part of it you'd have to be special.
