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!

#62) reviewed on 2.20.2008 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.
01. “Set, Set It Off”
Are
we gonna start off wit a jacked beat and/or a sample for this joint?
>>> I like tha slow-creepin’ start wit that girl in tha background.
Great emergement from Lil’ Witness. Soundin’ great. I’m GLAD it’s not a
sample/jacked beat!! Love tha fast rappin’, especially goin’ into tha hook!
Likin’ those “set, set it off”s in tha hook. This iz tha type of shit I would
love listenin’ to. What’s that extra beat at tha end? I’m guessin’ each track
iz mixin’ into each other… That’s odd for a CD (it’s usually for a mixtape). My Rating: 4.5
02.
“Sufferin’ Now”
Definitely
wanna hear some more shit from ya dawg. High AL! >>> Lovin’ tha fastness in tha
verses. Definitely makes tha shit real hot. Tha beats stay fresh along wit tha
rhymes and that consistant-kick-ass-flowin’! My Rating: 4.3
03.
“No Way
Around It”
Keepin’
this shit goin’!! >>> This one iz a lil’ slower, but has a hot beat. “Raised
in tha savage land.” My Rating: 3.9
04.
“The Look”
Shit
I’m starvin’. Hopefully we get some heat right here from this joint.
>>> That girl came back (meaning that it sounds like that girl in tha
background from tha 1st joint’s intro). Tha gurl iz cool & weird at tha
same time for me. Good rhymes and good story here. My Rating: 3.8
05.
“Stick ‘Em Up, Give It Up”
Looks
like a club banger… >>> Not a club banger, but okay. I’m a lil’ pissed
off right now ‘cause I’m doin’ some shit in Donkey Kong 64 where I’m fuckin’
losing every fuckin’ minute. I’ll be pissed off every minute, so there better
be somethin’ really hot to impress me. This iz just okay. NO MORE FEEDBACK
needed! My Rating: 3.9
Break: 12:23 AM. Until I beat
this MA’FUCKIN’ thing in this game, I’m NOT listenin’ to tha mixtape ‘til I
beat this MA’FUCKIN’ thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don’t want my
pissed off attitude to affect tha mixtape!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>> Aight that only took 4 minutes after I started tha break. Shit,
and I was so pissed off I said this was a mixtape during this break. My bad; it’s
a CD. Now back to tha CD.
06.
“Really Tho”
I
hope it’s good! >>> I like tha title by tha way. Rhymes are good wit
that REAL GOOD flowin’. Tha hook iz pretty good too. I like in tha hook that
REALLY FAST “you gotta pay tha cost to be tha boss.” I hear a “Diary” beat at
tha end of this. I wonder how you did wit that joint! My Rating: 4.0
½time: I definitely dig your
rhymes but I definitely dig your flow a lot better. You spit that rapid-fire
FIYA!! Hope tha last 6 jointz are just as good!
07.
“The Lamb”
Another
good title, but what are you gonna talk about? >>> Tha beat sounds a
lil’ different. Sounds like there’s added shit in it. I know you’re doin’ tha
fast flowin’ in this one. However, this beat just doesn’t flow at all wit tha
other songs. This was also too long… My
Rating: 2.7
08.
“Get Blazed Up”
A
much BETTA title (best outta tha 3 – No. 6’s title I thought was gonna be tha
title that would shock me wit tha song outta nowhere, but it was good (not a
shocker)). Got a High AL for it! Let’s see that kush & that smoke!!
>>> Good beat. Thought it was gonna be betta… That hook iz kinda fast…
Once again, A+ on tha rhymes & flowin’. Tha beat was tha best thing about
this song. Sounds like I know tha beat that’s gonna be in tha next song (which
iz at tha end of this song)? My Rating: 4.2
09.
“Move, Move”
And
like Ludacris, “get out tha way!” >>> Lol @ tha hook. Nothin’ very
catchy ‘bout this (sometimes my catchy tone catches on). It’s okay. He doin’
his thang on it tho. My Rating: 3.7
10.
“Lift My Bread Up”
Keep
doin’ that (tha title of No. 10)! I got a High AL! It better pay off!
>>> Decent start. It took a while for me to catch on (needed to hear
that hook). Nice hook. Consistant flowin’ on this (might not be sparkin’
anything for this joint tho). Great ending too wit that “grippin’ grain” part
at tha end. My Rating: 4.0
11.
“Strikin’ Cold”
Tha
title track. What gon happen? >>> Nice rappin’ & flowin’ again,
and tha hook iz pretty good too. You gon be “strikin’ GOLD” soon (I can tell ‘cause
of how great you rap wit tha speed, flow, and lyrics)! My Rating: 3.9
12.
“Don’t Let Me Go” Feat. Prince Blakk
This
iz it, but I think it gon be a slow jammer… … … >>> Real slow beat
start, but when it kicked in, it sounded like “International Players Anthem (I
Choose You)”, even during tha 1st verse. REAL GOOD rhymin’/flowin’ at tha very
end of Verse 2!! This really ain’t for me either. My Rating: 3.1
Overall: End Time: 1:01 AM. Aight
