On the title track of his Ballin Ain't a Crime mixtape, Peezy doles out tough love to substandard ballers. But even as he laments their lack of focus, there's a warmth and elasticity in his tone that's reminiscent of T.I. and Big Boi. The productions across this tape are lush and grandiose, with songs like "Against All Odds" featuring layers of glistening strings and ominous keyboards, but Peezy always hits every syllable with enough panache to put himself at the forefront of the action.
