Ayres, Cosmo and Eleven cooked up this likkle treat especially for their forthcoming Euro tour, and we got our hands on some advance copies at a low price. This is the core trio of the Rub doing what they do best: mixing all sorts of party music without concern for boundaries and with concern for MAXIMUM FUNNAGE. In the first 15 minutes alone, they sprinkle you with some classic funk, 90s R&B and, say, Pitbull. They also roll with an extended Bay/hyphy section toward the middle, and I ain't mad at that right now – fresh and brand new shit from Too Short, E-40, Keak, the A'z, etc. Another testimonial to the power of the Rub and another volume in their ever-expanding discography. Go show 'em how Brooklyn does, boys! 70 minutes.
