EDIT: It looks dusty… Hopefully it doesn't skip…
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.
"Gangsta Music"
Aight first joint, 3:19 length, High AL, and hoping this turns out good!! >>> Not only iz this gangsta so far, but I chose tha right game to play (since its got weapons and shit). Yeah glad to hear A-Mar again! Dyl on tha 2nd verse. Yeah. Yeah "this that A1 certified gangsta shit." Great smooth start to tha mixtape! Once again, I like A-Mar's "Lil' Boosie"ish voice. I think, in my opinion, that it's a blessing to have a voice like Boosie's. My Rating: 4.4
02. "Jigged Out"
Keep tha jointz comin'! Let's see how this one gon be… … >>> Good start. Nice down south start. Sounds like somethin' that would sound like somethin' from years ago 'cause A-Mar's voice sounds a lil' younger to me in this one. Third verse sounded a lil' like Unk at 3:13 and 3:25 in "2 Step". Nice lil' joint. My Rating: 3.9
03. "211" Feat. B-Rock
Okay first feature on tha mixtape. Gives me a High AL 'cause tha name reminds me of T-Rock. >>> Nice hook. Definitely feelin' it. Lookin' like a good 1st verse so far. "Choppa bullets pull out just like tha rocket." Liked this line. "Gettin' tha key to tha safe" Kinda what I'm doin' in 007 right now. I'm tryin' to get tha key to tha door and I'm supposed to plant a mine on this computer or some shit. My Rating: 4.2
04. "Fuck Wit Dat"
*Makes a prediction* Iz tha hook gon be like "fuck wit dat chopper…"? I'm feelin' that as a prediction right now 'cause I'm still tryin' to find that key, and alls I got iz a chopper, and I'm shootin' like tons of guys in 007 right now. High AL! >>> Aight I was wrong: more on tha "fuckin' wit pussy" side of thangz. Soundin' good so far tho. "Get dumb dumb dumb dumb/beat that pussy up like a drum drum drum drum." "I'm not a rabbit, but watch how fast I'mma hop…" Another thumbs up. *Found tha key in 007* Yeah definitely feelin' that joint. Tha flow reminded me of underground rappers Natureboy Rowe and Yung Mike on their collabo joint "I'm Throwed". My Rating: 4.4
05. "I Need A Blessin'"
I already got so many blessings right now, so I feel blessed already. I feel blessed for lots of things. Off tha top of my head: Living, healthy, my fresh clothes, my family, computer/labtop, Jimmy The DJ, Word Of South, communicating online (like wit Myspace), able to direct/edit so good, and lots of other shit. Let's see what this gon sound like. >>> Okay good it's not slow, and it's more on a down south beat. Yeah feelin' tha flow/lyrics on this one. At least it's good unlike certain "real life" songs that sound too boring wit tha beat. Even tho I backed up my file on tha computer in 007, it was a blessin' that I remembered to plant tha mine on tha helicopter 'cause once I placed it, I had 10 seconds to escape, and I did. My Rating: 3.8
06. "Let 'Em Fly"
Aight I got a High AL for this. I bet'cha this one gon be good. *Takes a 1 minute break to get a drink* >>> "Tha Block Is Hot" beat. Yeah this iz gangsta. "Die muthafucka die" I just got killed in tha next level, lol. I liked this rendition of "Tha Block Is Hot" tho. My Rating: 4.0
Break: It's 10:03 PM… You know what I gotta do! Call up Jimmy The DJ! Here it goes… >>> Aight it switched up to AIM, so now I'm talkin' to him on AIM. We had a good chat. Now, 39 minutes later, at 10:42 PM, I'm back, and ready to continue this joint!
07. "So Hard" Feat. Mista Matt
Already heard tha intro on accident ("Leather So Soft" beat). Let's see this rendition. >>> Lol at tha hook! Really on tha sex tip! Yeah this sounds good. Definitely for tha sexy ladies. My Rating: 4.0
Break: Sorry about tha break again. I gotta call up my 63 (almost 64) year old rappin' grandma. It's 10:49 PM right now. >>> Aight we had a good conversation about tha day and all tha shit I got from Jimmy The DJ. We were on tha phone for 20 minutes, 5 seconds. Now it's 11:10 PM, and now back to tha mixtape with HOPEFULLY no more interuptions!
08. "U Mad Huh"
Well I'm mad that it's a lil' on tha later side of thangz, but who tha hell be mad at A-Mar & Dyl? Tha haterz that's who. Anyway, let's see what this one's about. >>> Nice Nitti beat. Really feelin' tha 1st verse and tha hook. Yeah rockin' them 'bauds. Ooh wow that fast-rapid rappin' came outta nowhere from Dyl. Really feelin' it. Short, but real good. My Rating: 4.5
09. "What Do I Do"
Likin' these questions as titles. You just keep bein' you 'cause you doin' yo thang wit Dyl. Here goes my listen. >>> Very quiet start. Seems to be more serious. Feelin' it tho. My Rating: 3.7
10. "Tha Dumb Way" Feat. D-So & Lil' Boonie
I thought that said "Lil' Boosie" at first. Either way, it looks anticipating, and it's a double collabo, so it gives me a High AL! >>> I take that hook as somethin' funny, and it's makin' me laugh. Love it! Really feelin' that beat too. Love that line "we gon do you like some shit and flush ya down tha drain." Good shit. 2nd verse was real good, and 3rd verse soundin' good too. Nice 4th verse too. My Rating: 4.6
½time: Of course bangin'!! Can't doubt that boy A-Mar including his boy Dyl.
11. "Beat It Up (Remix)"
Yung Joc "Pak Man" on Music Choice Rap right now, and tha title of this makes me think of it bein' a remix to Yung Joc's "Beat It Up". Let's see if I'm right. >>> Oh this iz tha remix to A-Mar's joint on "My Gutta Wayz" I think (which iz his own version of "It's Goin' Down"). Sounds different (unless I can't remember), but tha second verse was pretty good. My Rating: 3.5
12. "Now Or Never" Feat. T-Bo
>>> Feelin' that hook. It's soundin' pretty good. My Rating: 3.9
13. "Repped Out"
Maybe this'll be hotter. I predict it. >>> Good beat. Tha beat reminds me a lil' of J-Balla's "Showin' Up". Lol @ tha "retarded"ness. My Rating: 4.0
14. "Gutta Bitch"
I took a 2 minute break for a sec 'cause I kept not being able to beat this level in 007 fast enough for this cheat, so I was losin' my mood a lil', but I got tha cheat by beatin' tha level EXACTLY in tha time required, so now I'm back to continue this mixtape! *Checks title* Okay iz this gonna be different or iz gonna sound like Webbie's joint? It'll prolly sound different, and it'll prolly be good. >>> Tha flow reminds me a lil' of Webbie's joint. This pretty good, but that other joint "Fuck Wit Dat" was better. My Rating: 3.6
15. "Fight Song"
This one I'm lookin' forward to. High AL! >>> Nice faster beat. Nice down south music again. Yeah tha hook was good. This was enjoyable, so it gets my thumbs up. My Rating: 4.2
16. "Light 'Em Up" Feat. City Boy & Young Hustle
This should be good. Tha collabo looks good once again. High AL! >>> Great beat. Soundin' real good. Nice hook. It's tight. Great collabo. Tha verses were tight, and tha song overall worked out good. My Rating: 4.3
17. "Dance Like A Stripper" Feat. C. Nelson
I dunno about this song. For some reason I'm not lookin' forward… >>> Lol @ "A Bay Bay" beat. Not bad. Listenable at least. My Rating: 3.7
18. "Bars & Apple Fanta"
Let's see this one. Likin' tha title. >>> I like tha beat fusion mix in tha beginning. Not bad for a start, but it sounds like it's gettin' better when Dyl raps on this. Too bad there was no A-Mar on this. My Rating: 3.8
19. "M.O.B."
Second-to-last joint here. Let's see what tha bidness iz. >>> Yeah it's back to A-Mar and it's tha "I Luv It" beat. Good job on all of tha verses. Glad to hear A-Mar again. My Rating: 3.8
20. "Let Me Through"
Okay this tha last one. Let's see how we gon end this. >>> This "Myspace Freak" beat was a lil' unexpected to me. Still lookin' forward. It sounded good. I just so happen to like A-Mar better than Dyl, but that's just my opinion. They definitely dope, and A-Mar definitely doin' his thang! My Rating: 3.7
Overall: End Time: 12:13 AM. That was a good mixtape. Definitely liked it, especially tha beginning. Tha ending was more average-good to me, but definitely listenable. Nothin' was bad, so that was good. Which song was tha one that a music video was shot for? Hopefully it's somethin' I rated wit a 4.0 or higher rating.
