Here
goes my review for A-Mar's CD "My Gutta Wayz". Thanx to my dawg Jimmy
The DJ for sendin' it to me as a bonus. 'Preciate that. Start Time: 9:24 PM
Disclaimer: I rate each song from 1.0
– 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion!
I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care how lyrical you are, as long
as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and
then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings. If a
song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6
rating, I pretty much really love it,
as it’s considered mindblowin’ when I
hear it! Any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type
before “ >>> ” iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song;
anything after I type “ >>> ” iz what I think of tha song while I’m
listening to it. If you sound like anything too mainstream for me or have
auto-tune in your vocals, I’m not
buyin’ it!

01. "What You Know 'Bout Me"
Let's see how this joint's gonna kick this thang off! >>> Very good intro music! Lil' Boosie's brother? Nah I'm just playin', lol. Yeah he does sound like Lil' Boosie, and this iz sounding good. Real good rhymes, real good flow, and real good sounding! Great way to start this shit off! My Rating: 4.4
02. "I Ain't Playin'"
Wit a flow like tha one you got, I'm sure you ain't playin'. After that first joint, I got a High AL now for this joint due to that. >>> Yes more on tha gangsta side of thangs! More of a Webbie flow wit a Lil' Boosie voice on this joint. That's a real nice mix fa'real! Looks like this mixtape gon be consistant by tha looks of this and tha previous joint! My Rating: 4.3
03. "Beat It Up"
Yeah my boy A-Mar 'bout to kick sum MA'FUCKIN' ASS!!!!!!!!!!! >>> Let's see what he does on tha Yung Joc/Nitti beat… Like that line "fuckin' around in traffic." I'm likin' his rework of "It's Goin' Down". My Rating: 4.0
04. "Thug In Me" Feat. Young Hustle
Looking forward to this collab! High AL! >>> Lol… It's "Shoulder Lean" beat. Let's see what goes on wit this… Like tha rework on this too! "Hang around tha drug spots, that's tha thug in me" I like that. Good start by Young Hustle! "First I let my nuts hang, then I let my glock pop, then I let tha ma'fuckin' slap in tha whip knock." My Rating: 4.2
05. "Thug Cry" Feat. Dyl
After all these reworks, I'm guessin' this iz gonna be a rework of Z-Ro's "Man Cry"? *Gets a drink and comes back in 90 seconds…* >>> Naw close… Looks like it gon be a rework of Jay-Z's "Song Cry" >>> I thought I was goin' to dislike this for a second, but it's soundin' good 'cause A-Mar knows how to FUCKIN' rhyme!! That was good, so I gotta give it a thumbs up! My Rating: 4.0
06. "Handle Ya Beef" Feat. Young Phat & Kid
This looks like it's gon be a good collab! Looking forward!! >>> Yeah u tha "lil' one in tha back countin' yo cash" fa'sho! Great verse (of course) by A-Mar! Wow what an EXCELLENT start on Verse 2! "AK 47, 45, Mack 11, Toota Roota 38, 22, Smith N' Wessun, Desert Eagle…" That shit was REAL tight back 2 back on tha flow!! Shit thank God I'm hearing 76 minutes of A-Mar right now wit this mixtape! It's tha shit! A-Mar keep doin' yo MA'FUCKIN' THANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *Cries* Tha song iz ending!! Real good song right there!! My Rating: 4.7
07. "My Gutta Wayz"
Aight title track, and looking forward (of course)! >>> I knew it was gonna be a rework 'cause of tha short length. Yeah I feel you on this. You may be sorry for yo gutta wayz, but at least they paid off fo thangz! My Rating: 4.0
08. "BR Boyz 2" Feat. Dyl
Baton Rouge stand tha FUCK UP!!!!! >>> Lil' old beat from 8 Ball & MJG "You Don't Want Drama" '04 style! Looks like it might sound like classic 'cause of tha '04 beat… Let's see… Really likin' that chorus mayne! It took a while for A-Mar to come on, but it was still good. My Rating: 3.8
09. Full Throttle Entertainment "Do Somethin'"
Let's see what FTE's got on this… >>> That dude (not A-Mar) on tha hook's killin' it! Shit that was real good for a hook boy! Like that "meal ticket mission" line. That fuckin' hook! I love it!!! Pretty good 2nd hook! Was really feelin' that dude (I think he's tha same one on tha hook) in tha 1st ½ of tha 2nd hook. Yeah tha hook again!! "More toys than a lil' kids closet" Nice line! "Catch a fuckin' round like a boxing match" Another nice line back 2 back! My Rating: 4.6
10. "Crank It Up" Feat. Black Vynm, Sleepy & Dee-1
Look at this collabo, and PLEASE be a rework of tha David Banner/Static joint!! High AL! >>> Oh it's not, but it looks like it's gon be sum fiya wit a nice underground beat! That was a nice verse by Black Vynm. Nice underground club banger wit a different/good twist! Of course, tha master a.k.a. A-Mar killin' it! "This iz how we life shawty, we gon keep it real" Shit that's another fuckin' good hook! Shit… This FUCKIN' MIXTAPE iz ON FIRE!!! My Rating: 4.4
½ Time: Holy shit!!! I think this iz tha BEST 1st ½ I've EVA had for a CD/mixtape! All but one joint got at least a 4.0 rating! A-Mar tha underground king of Baton Rouge, fa'real!
11. "U Don't Live Like I Live"
Yeah I know why… 'cause you're a fuckin' underground king! High AL on this joint! >>> Nice on tha "real" tip, just like wit how Lil' Wayne did on it originally. "Make it roll like dice" A thumbs up for that line. My Rating: 3.9
12. "My Dawgs"
A favorite title/subject of mine (Wes Fif did tha joint during tha Spring of this yer recently), so yeah, I got a High AL on this! >>> Yeah doin' err-thang wit yo dawgs! That's watz good. I try to do err-thang I can wit my dawgs, but they don't seem to connect wit me that much sadly. Wes Fif's song wit tha same title'll prolly never be beaten, but your's iz good too. My Rating: 4.2
13. "Keep It In The Studio" Feat. Young Hustle
Yeah tha return of Young Hustle! Got a High AL on this one too, and yeah, you better "keep it in tha studio" for now 'cause if it gets out, it'll be takin' ova tha whole rap game due to how GOOD A-Mar iz!! >>> Ooh tha beat iz soundin' cool. Yeah Young Hustle gon be one of tha next ones to blow ma'fucka! That was tight, ESPECIALLY wit Young Hustle on tha track! My Rating: 4.3
14. "Flow"
Let's see this quickie… >>> That was a pretty good lil' flow right there. My Rating: 3.7
15. "Mama"
>>> Nice sequel to No. 7. Was feelin' tha whole sequel thing and tha rhymes! My Rating: 3.8
16. "Down 2 Ride" Feat. JB & Young Hustle
Was thinkin' No. 16 was gonna look good, and its got Young Hustle on it!! Yeah I got a whole lot of AL for this! It gon be tha shit I know it!!! >>> Ooh "Ridin' Rims" beat… Nice verse by A-Mar and great 2nd verse! That hook iz nice. Sounds real good, and sounds like it grows on ya. My Rating: 4.1
17. "For The Money" Feat. Dyl
$ $ $ $ $ >>> Nice 1st verse by Dyl. That hook iz good. It's all about tha money mayne! My Rating: 3.9
18. "Let Me In"
Let's see watz good wit this joint… >>> Let's see how crunk this iz wit "Get Crunk" in tha background… Yeah you gotta get in! I agree wit u. "Treat my hataz like my dice, dawg, I'm shakin' 'em up!" Nice line. Tight flowin' on that classic beat. My Rating: 4.1
19. "What U Know 'Bout Me (Chopped & Screwed)"
Oh so these are bonuses huh? Looking forward to this C&S of that 1st HOT joint from this mixtape! >>> Now instead of Lil' Boosie, you soundin' like one of them dudes (from Wacko & Skip out tha N.O.; not sure which one). This was real good C&Sin', although tha voice could be a lil' more screwed… My Rating: 4.3
20. "Handle Ya Beef (Chopped & Screwed)" Feat. Young Phat & Kid
And what song was this again…? Oh this was my favorite from tha mixtape! Ooh so you know I'm really lookin' forward to hearin' it C&S style! >>> Sounded good, although I prefer tha original regular verison. My Rating: 4.1
21. "BR Boyz 2 (Chopped & Screwed)" Feat. Dyl
And tha finally joint/finally joint C&S style… >>> This sounded nice C&S. I think I'm goin' to rate it higher than I rated tha original version. My Rating: 4.0
Overall: End Time: 11:18 PM. Wow what a mixtape! I sure did enjoy that! Once again, thanx so much to my dawg Jimmy The DJ for sendin' me this joint as a bonus! That was REALLY worth it. And no offense, but this mixtape was better than tha "Gangsta Gumbo Vol. 1", but I gotta give that one credit 'cause that's how I found out who A-Mar was, ya dig? So yeah, this iz definitely one of tha best reviews I've done! A-Mar and Young Hustle are tha next to blow, ya feel me!!
