Pac Div - Church League Champions

Pac Div - Church League Champions

Alright, if you guys remember correctly, I posted a mixtape for the Left Coast group Pacific Division. They're back with their next offering entitled "Church League Champions". I have to say that this is a far cry from the "Sealed for Freshness Blendtape". Pac Div, as they call themselves now, seems a lot more focused, not only in their ideas, but in their lyrics. Instead of random slick punchlines and metaphors, the group seems to be able to write actual songs now. They have thematic tracks that stick to their blueprints this time. Also, their beat selection is great this time around. They mix up slow. synthesized, bass-heavy beats, with faster, more musical background, as well as funny sound clips throughout the tape. Honestly, they might be one of the next to blow out of the West Coast, or I at least hope they do. It seems like the blogosphere is getting flooded with new acts these days, and its hard to differentiate between who's just spinning their wheels and who's about to hit 60 without even getting into 2nd gear. Pac Div definitely have their foot on the pedal with this mixtape. Check the back cover for the tracklist, the d/l link (above), my picks, and some videos for your viewing pleasure...
