FKi - Blue Steel 2.0

BLUE STEEL 2.0 Cover Art

"Who the fuck is FKi?" That questioned is proposed halfway through the Blue Steel 2.0 mixtape and apparently they are an Atlantan rap/production duo with some pretty cool friends. Slim Thug, Mickey Factz, Academy Award winner Juicy J, Wale, and XV (one of the best rappers out right now) all make appearances during the tape's running time. FKi make pretty simple, old school boombap style beats infused with uptempo dance tracks as well as some slower R & B songs for a fairly unique style (think Cool Kids). As for their rapping; pretty mediocre (there are multiple sex rap tracks) with only instances where their skills impress. As a whole though, FKi's Blue Steel 2.0 has its moments but the overall effect is an interesting slew of styles.
