The 30 Best Chicago Mixtapes Of 2012

Posted on December 20, 2012 by FSD Staff

4. Treated Crew – Treated

[Download]

Meticulously crafted. Upon first listen, you could tell the entire Crew spent hours, days and months bringing this project to life. The bridges, the ad-libs, the melodies, the hooks – everything was exquisite down to the last note. Sure the Treated Tuesday’s series had its bright moments, but it was the entire project waiting in the wings that was the Crew’s crown jewel. The leaks were purely appetizers for the main course.

All crewmembers brought their best, and you can tell Mano and Mic Terror’s fingerprints are all over it. They also brought some of their extended family along for the ride, and the outcome was one of the best posse albums in years. Many times crew albums bottom out and fail to connect, but Treated is the exception. With the right push, this album could go places. Crew love, indeed.

Favorite Tracks: “Holy Trinity,” “Fresher,” “40z & Stunt’n,” “Okay”

    What the fuck does it matter that Castro and MMM were dropped close together. They were separate full CD’s. If quality of beats and rhymes count then both deserve to be top 10. Castro should be #1 hands down. Both were more cohesive than Durks joint. Yall a fucking disrespectful with this shit. Yall been lost my guys, but yall just lost me forever with this dumb ass shit. How do you rate this shit? Beats, rhymes, originality, cohesion? I’m waiting on an answer…If you had an answer i’d stick around but i know you don’t.
