Review #34: Playaz Circle "Supply & Demand"

Reviewed on 12.26.2007 (Review No. 34)




Here goes anotha CD review: I'm reviewin' my boyz Playaz Circle's latest joint "Supply And Demand" (nice title by tha way). Looking forward to it, even tho it's only about 10-12 tracks. It should've been a lot longer in my opinion, but let's see what tha boyz cooked up for tha world! Start Time: 11:33 PM


01. "Dear Mr. LA Reid"
Let's see how this starts thangz off for an intro track… >>> Smooth for a start. Pretty good. Very long for that intro (it's like 1:18, but it was good). Gotta luv Tity Boi's rhymes! "Hang like tha letter D." A great verse by him as well as a great verse by Dolla! My Rating: 4.0


02. "No. 1 Trap Pick"
I heard a sample somewhere (might've been a Youtube video clip or sumthin'), but luv that title, and I got a High AL for it!! >>> Gotta feel that beat intro! This sounds better than what I predicted/thought I heard. Sounds pretty good. I'm definitely feelin' it. "Fresh errr-day like tha 1st day of school" <- True dat! This good, although I expected a lil' more "drug related" shit on this. My Rating: 4.4


03. "Duffle Bag Boy" Feat. Lil' Wayne
Definitely one of tha biggest anthems of tha year! Hmm… I didn't think of this, but I think this might be my anthem of tha year for my 2007 Awards! Such a great collabo, great hook, but even better: PREMIERED on Music Choice Rap on my birthday (June 21st) this year! That's REALLY watz good! Tity Boi REALLY does his thang on his verse, and Dolla's verse iz real tight as well! I still don't know why everybody cut off that 14 sec. intro and that 18 sec. outro. That was uncalled for! I'm glad they kept it on here tho! I neva got sick of this song at any time, but since tha year iz ending, I had to take it off my playlist for 2008 since tha year iz winding down, and it has also been on my playlist for a whopping 26 weeks now. Plus, I think this song broke an MTV2 record for most weeks in a row @ No. 1 on tha MTV2 Hip Hop Countdown (it was No. 1 5 weeks in a row)! My Current Rating: 4.8


04. "Betta Knock" Feat. Ludacris
This one Music Choice Rap got not too long ago (I guess they playin' it as an album cut or sumthin'), but if I could remember, it was pretty tight, so lemme re-hear. I think Ludacris had good rhymes on it. >>> That 1st verse iz tight! Yeah nice mix of err-thang: tha beat, tha verses, Luda on tha hook. Yeah Tity Boi doin' his thang! Really enjoy hearin' him spittin' hot shyt! My Rating: 4.3


05. "Paper Chaser"
This that slow jam that I'm really feelin'! Music Choice Rap plays this also as an album cut! Looking forward to givin' it a rating! >>> Feelin' that hook! Good 1st verse, and nice rhymes on tha 2nd verse! Great combo also!
Gotta luv that girl computer voice at tha end! My Rating: 4.2


½time: So far on a real good track! Nothin' but bangerz!!


06. "We Workin'"
Let's see what this gon sound like! >>> By that 1st lil' intro, I knew it was gon sound hot (whoeva produced "White Gurl"). Real tight beat!! Of course Tity doin' his thang! Tight 2nd part of tha 1st verse by Dolla! Tight hook, and tight 2nd verse by tha both of them! My Rating: 4.8


07. "U Can Believe It" Feat. Ludacris
Premiered on Music Choice Rap back on February 10, 2006 @ 8:22 PM… I think this one was okay, but lemme re-hear it and give a review… >>> I think one reason I didn't catch too much to this song at first was prolly 'cause tha beat. Wasn't too big about tha beat… This might be tha next single and get re-released? Not officially sure… Decent. Nice hook tho. Sounds like it could be a good 2nd single. Way too long for an ending. It was like 1:18 long or sumthin'. My Rating: 3.6


08. "Paint Still Wet"
I think after No. 6 shocked me, I'm thinkin' this one might also shock me. Nice title, and High AL! >>> Beat sounds good, so I'm definitely lookin' good! Sounds like a P$C type of song. I see they redid tha UGK line by sayin' "she don't wanna freak me, she wanna freak my car." Tha hook iz pretty good, and that was a nice 1st verse by Dolla. Wow real good verse by Tity! Rippin' tha damn thang!! Yeah Tity Boi continuing tha damn thang! Great 3rd verse by tha both of them! Damn these jointz hot!! My Rating: 4.3


09. "Outlaw"
Yeah for another brand new joint for me! High AL!! >>> Ooh tha intro kicked in hard! Tha beat iz real nice wit that rock mixed in (tha right way that iz)! Hook ain't that bad. Looks like Dolla spittin' his verse pretty good! Lookin' forward to hearin' Tity Boi! Yeah he continuing again wit that HOT SHYT wit his flow!! Greatness! My Rating: 4.2


10. "Gucci Bag" Feat. Shawnna
This one (according to Music Choice) was originally released in '05. Lemme review it 'cause I never really heard it (except once on Music Choice R&B And Hip-Hop - they added it recently). >>> Tha beat iz nice, and tha hook iz good. Yeah that hook iz growin'. Nice verse by Tity Boi again. Oh yeah this was tha joint where Shawnna doin' her thang on tha flow! Really feelin' it! My Rating: 4.2


11. "Let Me Fly"
(Without lookin' at tha title just yet) Wonder what tha ending gon be like… *Looks* Iz this gon be a slow type of jam? Let's see… >>> Intro really threw me off in a bad way! Sorry but I'm not feelin' this really… Can be a real song, but not my type at all… Not feelin' tha gurl in tha background at all… Very good for an ending song and a nice real type of song, but definitely not for me at a go
od moment. My Rating: 2.0


Overall: End Time: 12:32 AM. This must've been tha quickest review I've done (59 minutes). There should've been a whole lot more songs… This could be "Album Of Tha Year" for me… Damn this album was REAL good!! Loved it! I REALLY HOPE Playaz Circle stay around for a real long time! They been already around for 10 years, but I hope they keep doin' they thang! In my opinion, DEFINITELY, tha "Duffle Bag Boyz" are here to stay!!!
