Purps Place Review: Instant Legend- The All In Good Time EP

Yep, it's time for another review. Today we're gonna review Instant Legend's "The All In Good Time" Ep while i eat these liberty caps and smoke this spliff so lets get started.

1) All In Good Time- The beat draws me in right away, has a good soulful sound to it. Like something you'd hear The Isley Bros on. Legend's flow is real on point in the first verse, good lyricism and has a nice old school sound to it. The first time I heard the song I did'nt like the hook at all but as you listen to this track more and more, you'll catch yourself singing the hook lol. Second verse is pretty good, I honestly liked the first verse better but still, good lyricism by Legend. Third verse catches my attention the most on the lyrical tip. Good track 8/10

2) The Tape Worm Vortex- Nice upbeat sounding production on this one but Legends flow is what really pulls you into this track. Some good lyricism again on this track. Catchy chorus on this one as well. A little too short though, would've liked to hear more on this one. 7/10

3) Save Me- The intro of this one drags on a little bit but once Legend comes in he pulled me into the track, beat sounds very deep as well as the lyrics. Legend really makes you feel for him on this one. Beautiful song 10/10

4) West Coast Depression- Nice laid back west coast feel on this track hence the name lol. In my opinion Legend really shines flow wise on this track. Definately a hypnotizing head bobbing track hear. The gangsta whine is also a real nice touch to this track. Good Shit 9/10

5) The Page- Ok, just so you all know, im gonna be a little biased on this track because im a sucker for orchestral type beat. Beautiful sounding beat and Legend shows alot more confidence on this track. Great flow, catchy hook and again, beautiful beat. 9/10

6) Waiting- The acoustic and electric guitars go nice on this track as well as the higer pitched hook. The first verse on this track is my favorite on the whole Ep besides "Save Me". Another beautiful track. 9/10


Overall, "The All In Good Time EP" is great find. Some great production as well as some very good lyricism on Legend's part. This records a must buy. 8/10
