Review
The strongest aspect of Leon Daggas self-titled debut album on Powerbroker Entertainment is the strong production and smooth funked out groove of the project The beats are more than funky enough to carry the evolving rhymes of Mr Dagga Reppin the Bridge AKA Bridgeton New Jersey Leon delivers rhymes that dont break any new ground but do manage to compliment the phat tracks that hes given to work with
Highlights include the head noddin groove of Real Ryme Rocka with its loopy liquid butter feel and catchy hook This is one of the cuts that best showcase the potential that Leon obviously possesses The Upliftment shows off another side of his seasoned persona Its here that Leon Dagga offers insight to the depth of his mental The track is a laid back introspective discussion of the ills of a new millennium reality This one is hittin Simple as that It goes hand in hand with the entertaining and positive message that he sends to his daughter with Keep Ya Mind Strong This debut is solid and doesnt suffer from too many uneven momentsnbsp; Mic Inflammation is very indicative of what to expect from Leon Dagga Heres a cut thats already garnered scattered airplay on the national scene The formula used for Leons debut is a sound one- good delivery tight hooks and phat beats for days Leon shouts beat maker extraordinaire Mr Vorhees on the self-indulgent Leon Dagga ***** It bounces as the rest of the effort does

Alright so yall are asking- should I buy this album? As far as PhillyHipHopcom is concerned it gets our stamp of approval
