Both ILL Mckenzie and M.D. took a listen to Ms Tiffany latest project "Lip Gloss and Liquor. Usually the two can never agree on an artist and how they should rate them, but overall the rating that these two gave the mixtape was similar except in one category, so their rating were .5 off from each other.
ILL McKenzie felt that on this mixtape Ms Tiffany a well rounded presence on the microphone, especially for a female in the industry. He stated that most females try to over sell sex as gimmick but with Ms Tiffany she sells it enough to remind you she a female but then mixes it up with some raw hard lyrics with a nice dose of punch lines. Her creativity also gives her ability to tell a story her lyrics. The versatility of this rapper proves she is a student of the game, as she stretches her range of subjects and also lyrically defends herself against any emcee that might try to test her. Overall ILL felt this was a solid mixtape to listen to and gave it a 4 out of 5
Beat M.D. Felt that this emcee had a lot of potential but felt she did not have the ability to be versatile. He felt like the artist stayed inside the same box through out the mixtape, but heard a lot of potential in the artist. His advice to the artist was to try to touch on other subject matters. Overall M.D. gave the mixtape a 3.5 out of 5

Once again both ILL McKenzie and Beat M.D. did not agree on the rating of this mixtape. Sometimes they agree on the flaws of the artist, but this time they did not even agree on that.
When ILL Mckenzie listen to the Mixtape he recognize that this artist with the tracks that he coverd, he did not trying to reflect his style directly to the artist that originally flowed over the beat. ILL saw that Trellz actually created his own lane on each track, even with the subject matter was different at times. He also recgonize the versatility of the rapper to talk about different subjects, The one thing that ILL would like to see is is this artist can create a story from his lyrics and paint a picture with his words. ILL feels that is the only missing piece of the puzzle for this artist. Overall he enjoyed listening to the Mixtape and the artist in general. ILL gave the Mixtape a 4 out of 5
Beat M.D. looked at the title of the Mixtape and listen to it and guess he just had to be labeled in the category of this artist haters. He did not hear anything original from this artist and basically felt like he was like any other artist he had heard. M.D. also stated the fact that there was nothing special about this artist and was no stand out tracks. M.D gave it a 2.5 out of 5
Doctor Report on 100 grand Mixtape "Schizophrenia"
ILL McKenzie was the only one that listen to the whole mixtape from the Quarantine Radio staff but M.D. was impress by what he heard on the show.
ILL McKenzie felt like the artist was very creative from the first track to the last. Each track had its own meaning and bridge together a story line. The first couple tracks flowed like reading a book, from one chapter to the next as the artist talked about how he started his day to going to school. The artist then enter different subject matters with different angles, from talking from view point of the entitled mixtape to interacting with a girl from online, 100 grand creativity is something that the rap game has not seen in awhile. ILL gave this mixtape a 4 out of 5 rating.

We at Quarantine Radio had the privileged of being able to review another one of AmaziinMixtape entitled "Peace of Mind" . Both ILL McKenzie and Beat M.D. saw improvements from Amaziin first mixtape but in different ways and gave different rating once again.
M.D. liked the new style that Amaziin was taking on and thought that a couple tracks were deep and meaningful, he felt that the artist took more time in the development in his lyrics this time around but through out the mixtape the creativity died down in the process. M.D. gave the Mixtape a rating of 2.
ILL McKenzie felt like the artist put more thought in this mixtape and heard a lot of improvement and heard that advance that was giving last time around were taken into consideration. It was clear of the development of the artist as a whole but still felt like there was room to grow. ILL gave the mixtape a rating of 3.

Coming from a city whose Hip-Hop identity has been for the most part over shadowed by the presence of NASCAR, the banking industry and high profile murder cases, BETTIE GRIND has been determined to take advantage of his opportunity to bring the eyes and attention of the Hip- Hop entertainment industry to a virtually untapped market, the Carolinas.
And so the journey begins; In 2004-05’ after countless wins on Power 98’s Free-Style Friday show, BETTIE GRIND really began to focus on his craft resulting in the release of his first single “POP LOCK” that set the streets on fire! While receiving rave reviews and mix show spins around the area, this fresh new sound unseen energy has now become part of the DNA bred into the re-birth of Hip-Hop in the Kack.
BETTIE GRIND has the charismatic styles of the Rap tycoon Jay-Z with the lyrical energy of Rap mogul Ludacris. With the rapidly growing success and support of his followers, BETTIE GRIND quickly ceased the opportunity to leave his foot print on the crown of his city by performing with Young Jeezy at Summer Fest in Charlotte, NC which then led to him sharing the stage with Lil Wayne, Big Boi and the Purple Ribbon All-stars to name a few and most recently Plies. BETTIE GRIND is always in the forefront of those who strive to make a name for his city in the music world. He hit home with the collaboration with Anthony Hamilton on the remix of the unforgettable ballad“Charlene”.
The hunt for continued momentum was on now on as BETTIE GRIND maliciously attacked the mix tape game, releasing raw, potent material such as the self-proclaimed “KING Q.C” and the “G’s Us Is Coming” mix tapes that combined for almost 50K units within a 24 month period. As the streets remained hungry for the preceding word, BETTIE GRIND struck a pot of gold when his management team set up a meeting with one of the hottest producers in the game right now, Drum Squad founder Drumma Boy! With hits like “Shawty” for Plies and “I Put On” for Young Jeezy the track record was proven. With that being said, the sweltering hot new single from BETTIE GRIND“DAMMIT I’M FLY” was released.
“I am co-signing this one”. You have to be an artist at a certain level to even ride on one of my tracks and he (BETTIE GRIND) smashed this one on his first creditable mainstream produced track, says Drumma Boy”. After a few test drives with some of the top DJ’s and clubs in the region the overwhelming response completed the task of breaking the glass on the window that held back an indie artist from claiming the commercial artist spotlight.
