First of all, Avenue C+D is the latest installment of the Avenue Series, released Sept 2012. Is it the last though? They said it was 4 parts. This is C+D, so is it 3 & 4 in one? Or does it count as just 3? I need to know! RIGHT NOW!
Track 1: Columbia Nights Intro: this is an intro instrumental. It’s delightful. It gives me a slightly 80’s vibe for some reason. Maybe the bass line reminds me of something else. But the thing about 80’s music is that it’s PERFECT, so the reminder (even if it’s something completely unrelated) is THE BEST
Track 2: Brown Skin Girl: My mans and them Chris is crushing on a long distance cutie pretty hard. You think he’s fallin but NOPE cuz he got another one round the way. He just wants one with some substance though. Good for you Chris, fuck these simple hoes, they aint bout nothing. Then Dave sees a broad at the spot and he on it. She on it too, but lowkey. They get drinks and Dave already know she gon be on that walk of shame life in the AM cuz he trill like that. 3rd verse Chris sets the record straight. He aint hiding shit and you best ta get with the program. The Paxtons some trill ass folk, ya heard? The hook? ”Brown skin girl if you wit it then let me know” simple, yet elegant. We all want them brown bunnies and we needs to know if yall down. There’s this refrain and then Chris once again proves he’s the perfect human being. HOL’ UP right quick, ima call HER and saing this on HER voicemail (yeah, HER). . .
Favorite bar(s): My time is very precious and space quickly filling up/ so add to the culture girl and make yourself a keeper, what – Chris
Track 3: Ready To Go (Feat Vanache): Dave is preparing for some late night fun cuz he know it’s finna be ON. Bitch already know what’s up, plus she gushin on Avenue B ALREADY! Then the best most perfect hook drops in and you just wanna lose your shit. Verse 2, Dave at the spot again and he workin on a double dipper. SCORE! Chris comes in with a 5 bar? Bridge? Mini refrain? I don’t know, but he bout to BANGBANG these 2 honeydips. SCORE! 2 Paxtons, 2 Triples. WOOOOOP! Thank the based god
Favorite bar(s): we can take a trip if you goin my way/ pull up to the crib and she beggin me to stay – Chris
Track 4: 044: sounds like a voicemail interlude of 2 hoes that want that Paxton C+D (no Avenues) saingin that Lil Bit Of Livin’ melody. SO I guess C+D give hoes the C+D. POW
Track 5: Want Me More: This here beat got a sped up sample of Donnell Jones “Where I Wanna Be”. Not bad. Dave was this broad wearing a jersey with her cootie cat out? Cuz that would be the most bonerific thing in ever! Fuck the game! It’s gon be a new game with me takin my balls to her hole. . . anywho, Dave beats it and just wants to chill but she callin cuz she want more and he aint sure he tryna give her more than that D. Chris saings the hook but he remains an angel. Then Chris tells this hoe that HEY BITCH we cut buddies and I’ll smoke wit you but that’s it. CHILL OUT! Cuz my nigga a trill ass G one time, ya heard?!
Favorite bar(s): this pimp baby, she aint seen those/ honor that I keep those – Dave
Track 6: Nudes: n00dz!!!! Chris feelin this broad and her head game. It she lived closer he’d prolly wife this one. But since she not, bitch besta send them NUDES out! Hook is basically “n00dz n00dz n00dz n00dz now bitch!” Chris gives a detailed explanation of how he bangs the broad out in verse 2. Bang her out good he does. I’ll add this to my LIST. *waves* @ HER. *runs away*
Favorite bar(s): this shit can be awesome right? Mood set, turn off the lights/ maybe dim it a little so when I get up in the middle, I can see the awesome sight – Chris
Track 7: Raw Papers & Rossi: This that smooth ass player shit! Rappering starts on the beat’s intro then the hook drops in when the beat really gets poppin and it’s just that smooth ass player shit! Life is cool but Dave envisions more. Prosper, family. PROSPER! 3rd verse is Dave literally being a smooth ass player and shit. That’s crazy.
Favorite bar(s): Summer nights cool, but my heart getting colder, it was all good til we started getting colder – Dave
Track 8: Tonight: Chris gets high and rides his bike. We are totally best friends! He hollers at a shorty tells her he gon DO THAT on the Avenues of C+D. Everything’s not all good for Dave. He needs to time to chill out. This broad need to leave him alone while he get his mind right too. Or else. Dave out the door and he might be fuckin wit a another broad, sorry boo.
Favorite bar(s): Life’s decent besides all the fuck shit/ I’m just grateful that a scholar got to function – Chris
EDIT: sample issues caused this to be pulled so if you don’t have it too bad. Sad faces. But I do so happy faces on that ass!
Track 9: Got Away: Dave got the woman problems. Don’t we all? Worse yet he got a girl that got a man. Sad faces. Verse 2 Dave acknowledges that they were in Love with lust and that’s always a recipe for disaster. More sad faces. Friends. Lovers. More? Ehhh. Saddest of faces. Then Chris has the most random 4 bar at the end of the song. I mean it fits but where you been the whole god damn song? Geezus
Favorite bar(s): I only judges em by they actions never words/ reenacting in my mind that’s exactly what you deserved – Dave
Track 10: She Never: The Paxtons puttin this broad on. She aint been bout that life so they choosin up and givin this broad a new experience. Chris gots a lots of hoes. But he’s wlling to give this broad a spot on the roster and teach her how to play her part. That’s generous, Chris.
Favorite bar(s): She honoring my ambition and patronizing my church/ patiently I been paying attention not saying much/ I’m measuring her play making potential to play in clutch – Chris
Track 11: Pretty Girl Problems: I think this my favorite cut off C+D. it’s just damn good. Refrain. Hook. Beat. Flow. It just all comes together. Again. I mean, come on! This The Paxtons. They’re gold, Jerry! GOLD! Chris talkin bout a bad bitch with no self-awareness. She need to get her mind right cuz beauty and problems more than skin deep. The “junky room” she has is her fucked up mind state. Dave got the same problems. His broad seems to be so insecure. I mean c’mon hoe. A Paxton done chose you. Get it together. Too late. Then there’s a beat switch and shit gets kinda groovy. This feels like it coulda been a 5 minute outro and I’m mad they didn’t keep it going but whatevs!
Favorite bar(s): None of the rest you, and you aint in-ter-es-ted in hearing that truthfully you was a nigga best – Dave
Track 12: 050: this is another voicemail interlude. I know it’s in the wrong spot on my track list but that’s literally The Paxtons fault as a song is missing from the bandcamp page so =P but for realsies it’s a foreign hoe that’s gonna holler via whatsapp. Nice.
Damn, it’s over. Or is it? Well, it’s over for now. *cries* Avenue C+D might be the most complete in the Avenue Series. Chris and Dave found who they are and where they’re going. Musically, at least. The flows flowed more flowingly. The beats were all cohesive. The subject matter was a bit more concise. They had a specific aim with this story. You done good, buddies. I thank you, my best friends, The Paxtons. Now release more shit soon. Fuck.
