Review #202: Black Menace "Ghetoasnigga"

Reviewed on 5.14.2009 (Review No. 202)


Here goes anotha review fa today; this ya boy Frankie! Now, I emerge into 1992 wit Black Menace “Ghetoasnigga”; lookin’ forward to hearin’!! Start Time: 6:36 PM | End Time: 7:26 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!



© 2009 CD Review (Review #202) reviewed on 5.14.2009 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.


01. “G.A.N. (Ghetoasnigga)”
I noticed: Tha only word that’s spelled correctly iz “nigga”, no less tha explicit word, lol. Well, I have anticipation, so lemme see what Black Menace iz all about right chere! >>> Sounds good fa a start. Interesting 1st verse goin’ on here. I like tha “sellin’ crack” part. Tha 2nd verse iz good too. I like tha “uzi cocked/rollin’ up a blunt” part. You know I luv ma Louisiana shit, so thumbs up fa deliverin’ this shit to me, bruh! I like when you say tha title. Sometimes in tha hook, it sounds cool, especially tha really deep voice (when it says “ass nigga”). Nice outro wit all tha “ghetto ass niggaz.” I also like tha outro wit tha “and I’m sayin’, ‘peace,’ to all tha ‘ghetto ass niggaz’” part. My Rating: 4.0


02. “Str-8 Up Gangsta”
Should be anotha great joint; you know you deliver sum hot shit! >>> Decent start, although it can be better fa me, so since it’s 5:46 on tha length, I should have more interestin’ shit to say. Now, I’m hearin’ tha 2nd verse, and tha flowin’ iz GREAT! Good “protect my crack incase sum niggaz wanna jack” part, fa sho. You did yo thang on tha 2nd verse, my dude. “Gangsta” 3rd verse here by keepin’ it “gangsta” wit tha “gat” and “sellin’ dope” parts. Good job wit this shit. I think I like “G.A.N.” betta, but this still had its consistency to go wit your tape. Oh wait, a 4th verse! I like tha “if you fuck wit me” part; you’re “gangsta,” ya dig. I like tha ending wit tha “sounds of tha ma’fuckin’ ghetto” wit tha gun shots! My Rating: 3.9


03. “Hollygrove Dat 17th”
Ain’t that where Wayne was born? Either way, I wanna hear YOUR story about Hollygrove!! >>> I like tha hook, especially wit tha “Hollygrove” part. Glad to “give thanks to tha streetz in yo hood.” Not bad on tha 1st verse here… Tha dude on tha 2nd verse was okay as well. Not bad 3rd verse… I thought I would like this better, but not much stood out. My Rating: 3.5


04. “Bytches On Tha Tip”
I like how tha title iz spelled. Let’s hear your story about dem “bytches”! >>> Okay 1st verse. Are you gonna get like Tim Smooth and get real sexual to dem “bytches”? Yea, tha 2nd verse sounds betta. Ooh, good “fuckin’ like a rabbit” part; thanx for that contribution to tha track! Well, it’s gettin’ betta on tha 3rd verse! Sex goin’ on here, so thumbs up fa gettin’ explicit about it. Shit, tha verse was too short. Here comes tha 4th verse, and it sounds like it could be betta also! A betta flow on this verse! I like tha “let me fuck ya like a d-o-g!” You kept it goin’ on this verse; each verse got betta!! My Rating: 4.1


½time: Looks like a pretty good start. I wanna hear more, so let’s see how you come through. Glad you MURDERED that “Bytches On Tha Tip” by gettin’ really in tha mood fa sex on that shit!


05. “Searchin’ For A Way Out”
I wonder how this one gon sound… >>> Sounds like a story goin’ on… Good “sellin’ dope” part. Good drug lines also (wit “sellin’ rocks on tha block”) in tha 2nd verse; tha rappin’ iz faster too. After a lil’ while, I’m slowly losin’ interest… I don’t know about tha 3rd verse, but that beat iz gettin’ kinda boring/repetitive. My Rating: 3.1


06. “Going Off (Part I)”
A short song (2:27 on tha length)… How much are you “going off” on this shit? >>> For a short song, this has a real long intro… :46 in, and still no verse? What’s goin’ on? This just an instrumental? Yeah, just an instrumental. Not bad beat, but I can’t really comment… EDIT: See No. 8 for tha review!


07. “Hollygrove Dat 17th (17th Mix)”
This again? What happened to it? >>> Yeah, I didn’t see a difference, and wasted tha time to see what was different (when there wasn’t anything different). I feel it better now, but see No. 3 for tha review!


08. “Going Off (Part II)”
How this gon end it? >>> That beat again… Okay, this gon be rappin’? No. 6 won’t count ‘cause that bein’ just an instrumental, and I’ll count this instead. Finally, tha rappin’ at 1:15… Sounded good; thumbs up. Good, anotha verse… Feelin’ it, especially tha “typical hood shit” towards tha end; I like that acapella too! Originally, I gave No. 6 a 3.6 rating, but I’ll boost it here. My Rating: 3.8


Overall: Decent tape… Nothin’ really to say, although I thought it was gonna be better. It still had great raps, a good vibe, as well as that great title of tha tape (“Ghetoasnigga”). I’ll give a shout out to tha “Hollygrove Dat 17th” song now, as I feel it better.
