These days it seems that a new emcee appears on the scene via Myspace or Facebook everyday. But of these Internet emcees only a few really have what it takes to hustle themselves and their craft to the top. My next guest is an emcee, a CEO, and an all around hustler. Coming out of Miami is my next guest, Razor. I caught wind of him from his new single & video, “Holla.” Once I finally got a hold of him I was even more impressed to learn how much more he’s got going on. Join Stoli as we talk with Razor about his company HustleLine Ent, his non-stop grind, other succesful Miami emcees, and so much more! - Skope Staff

This album dipicts everyday struggles and life of a trapstar with songs like "Trap Award", "Been Bout It" and "I Live Dis" featuring Paul Wall. Then it switches gears and slows down a bit with tracks like "Have A Seat" featuring Athena Storm, "Shawty Got Sum'n" featuring Cannon and "For U" featuring Rick Ross and Shawnna. This album has a little bit of something for everybody, from heavy hitting club music, to hood music, then to the ever popular feel good R&B kinda vibe.

If you are looking for a new beat with strong ties back to old-school hip hop roots, consider Mr. M-I-A’s Reloaded (The Streetz Iz Mine) by Razor. The 28-track mix-tape offers a comprehensive throwback into the history of hip hop while providing a look into the continuous, futuristic innovation of the hip hop sound. The album works both as a holistic, continuous work and as individual tracks.
While no individual track on the mix-tape is longer than four minutes. The shorter length tracks provide considerable variety within the mix-tape and flow seamlessly into each other. It’s a cool bit of play by Razor – combining the storytelling capabilities of a seasoned artist. Mr. M-I-A’s Reloaded is also broken up by the insertion of several “mini-tracks” lasting no longer than two minutes; while these are not part of the musical album per se, they act as transition pieces between the different parts of the mix-tape.
A keen listener will be able to hear the slight variations on beat and theme that different parts of the mix-tape contain; the “mini-tracks” act as bridges to effectively guide the listener through the many parts of the mix-tape. For a seasoned hip-hop listener looking to hear something new with a strong throwback to old roots, giving Razor’s new mix-tape a chance would definitely be an excellent choice.
From what we’ve listened to, Razor is one of the new up-and-coming hip hop artists from the Sunshine state, so be sure to cop (The Streetz Iz Mine) digital download for free while you still can! We have no doubts that you’ll be seeing his material on the shelves of record stores in no time. - Written by Owl for Hiphop.org

Drugs, money, and sex...common ground for most southern rappers these days right? So I guess the determining factor for originality is how well an artist can present the same drugs, money, and sex the last artist rapped about and still captivate the listener. That being said Mr. M-I-A (Reloaded) - The Streetz Iz Mine is definitely amongst the highest ranking classic street albums/mix-tapes. - Target Audience Magazine

The Florida rap scene has emerged as one of the preeminent scenes for hip hop over the past year. Rap artist Razor is one of the new rappers on the scene looking to make his mark with the release of his fresh mixtape Mr. M-I-A.
“Holla" is sure to get the girls on the dance floor in the clubs with its slow/fast tempos. “For U" has the hard bass that Florida is known for and just listening to it one can picture cruising around Miami on a warm spring night getting ready to pick a woman up for a night on the town. On this track, Razor shows he has back up from the heavyweight as Ross spits a line at the end of the song. “Rock Music" may sound a little misleading as the song is not exactly a rock song but it is certainly something to rock too. The song dabbles in the new trend to take over rap the introduction of electronics to make a mysterious rap meets futuristic sound. Razor pulls it off pretty well and the song is another strong track from him.
“Feeling Myself" is really the only clichéd track on the whole album due to the overt references to swag. Although swag songs are a dime a dozen these days, one supposes that every rapper is entitled to at least one swag song. Still, this song does not take away anything from this up and coming artist and it will not be long before Razor will reach the pinnacle of the rap world. - Target Audience Magazine
Mr. M-I-A is a growing force in the hip-hop world and that force is one to be reckoned with.
Contemporary lyrics delivered with machine-gun precision and backed by both creative and innovative music, this album is one that every rap/hip-hop enthusiast should have in his/her collection.
Spanning the spectrum from straight-up gangsta to old-skool to modern East/West hip-hop, Razor is almost a chronology of how hip-hop has progressed and blossomed into the viable music style of modern and future times.
Tracks on this album feature some of the giants in the genre (Akon, Young Jeezy, Shawnna, Rick Ross) and serves as a showcase for new talent as well. I know running isn't a good idea some times and seldom looks cool, but I strongly suggest you run to the nearest record store and purchase this album.

With high expectations for this mixtape, Razor aka Mr. M-I-A does not disappoint. Perhaps the most commercially viable mixtape in his catalog, if not the most mainstream-ready mixtape out of M.I.A in years. With featured artist such as Rick Ross, Akon, Young jeezy, Ish Jones, & more he delivers on this one! By far one of the hottest mixtape releases this summer, along the side of Dj Vlad Razor is hungry and eating away at the mixtape circuit!Hardcore lyrics, and catchy hooks that fit the tone of
the content, razor is ositioning
himself to shut down the competition. Go grab the mixtape for yourself!
