Big Hit Releases 3rd Album “Free Big Hit” From Prison (Album Review)

Posted by on

Los Angeles, California rapper Big Hit dropping his 3rd studio LP from behind bars. The father of Hit-Boy, he was found guilty & convicted of a hit & run resulting in great bodily injury almost a decade ago & unlawfully being sentenced to 12 years & 4 months in prison including a 5-year GBI enhancement connected to Count 1. His petition for a writ of habeas corpus was later granted & became a free man on his son’s 36th birthday. Hit would have his father join forces by making Surf or Drown 2 a collab effort tailored for Father’s Day Weekend & put out a debut album of his own The Truth is in My Eyes only 6 months later. Blacks & Whites produced by Hit-Boy & The Alchemist outdid the debut last spring, finding himself incarcerated again 4 months ago & Surf Club Inc. has put together Free Big Hit.

“The Game Just Forced Me” is this summery intro talking about wanting to live his life & not wanting to make any sacrifices whereas “Got What You Need” featuring WWE Hall of Famer Snoop Dogg shows off their mob ties over a west coast trap instrumental from Hit-Boy. “It’s Obvious” featuring Lefty Gunplay & X4 cloudily brings the trio together to talk about being allergic to the bullshit while “Slow Your Roll” featuring Ty$ melodically breaks down the coldness of the ghetto.

Meanwhile on “Bigger Than Life”, we have Big Hit on top of more sampling aiming to plan for the future in the midst of the price increasing with the appetite just before “Fuck Me Back” featuring the Baby Stone Gorillas was an underwhelming choice of a single that came out couple months back when winter began. “Thug Love” featuring Jay Worthy & TeeFLii makes up for it with a dedication to the thugs leading into “Awake” featuring Hit-Boy stands a warming father-son moment.

“Beyond Solid” continues to push further towards the 2nd leg of Free Big Hit with a boastfully cloudy trap heater assuring that he still has it even with all the bullshit he’s been dealing with these last few months while “Crunch Time” shows a bit of a jazz rap flare instrumentally heading for the riches. “They Say They Proud of Me” featuring Joe Moses ends with them addressing everyone who claims to be happy for their success.

Wouldn’t be fair at all to say it’s Big Hit’s fault that this album didn’t do as much as his last couple did because he’s back on prison for some bullshit, but Free Big Hit even with the highlights it has could quite possibly be his most average listening experience. His performances are unquestionably on par with The Truth is in My Eyes and Blacks & Whites, the guests’ though either come off as exciting or disappointingly underwhelming.

Score: 6/10
