Cyssero - Protege of the Game
Constant | Vancouver, BC Canada | 01/26/2007
(1 out of 5 stars)

"Cyssero (A.K.A. Michael Williams, Rockstar) sophomore album is "Protege of The Game" (2007). The Philadelphia MC provides a fourteen track releases with guest appearances from Akon and Game. Cyssero is affiliated with The Game's Black Wall Street label and has appeared on their mixtapes. Cyssero's previous release was "Philly's Bad Guy" (2006). Cyssero opens the album up with two similar hardcore cuts, repping himself, and rhyming with a grimy flow. In contrast is the upbeat sounding "So Fresh", which has Cys rhyming about his clothes, money and backed by repetitive record vocals - in a track which never really goes anywhere. Cyssero continues to drop below average rhymes backed by halfhearted production on "Im A Rida" , "I Feel Ya", "Stick Em" using the same repetitive rhyme style. The best track on this release is "Fire In Ya Eyes" a track which the Game leads on, Cyssero hold's his own on this cut which pays tribute to a favourite gun. Cyserro borrows D12's 40 ounce beat for "Letcha 40 Pop". Akon's vocals are used for "Natural Born Hustla", Cyssero doesn't take this cut anywhere special. Cyssero then rhymes about what it's like to be "Locked Down". I am not impressed with "Protege of the Game". Their is very little variety in production, content and lyrics, a better artist can sometimes get away with this if he's got charisma, half decent flow - Cyssero lack's both of these qualities. 1.5."
