Review #321: Lil' Boosie & Hurricane Chris "Category 7: A Bad Azz Hurricane"

Reviewed on 10.16.2009 (Review #321)


It’s ya boy FrankieThaLuckyDog here for a 2nd of 6 times today, since I’m tryna cram all my reviewz in one day, ya dig! I KNOW I can do it ‘cause NOTHIN’ iz stoppin’ me!! Now, for this next one, for Lil’ Boosie & Hurricane Chris, I originally just downloaded tha CD for someone, and then just put it in my Recycle Bin. Good thing I left it in there ‘cause my boy Big Wayne influenced me ta check it out, since he said he produced a WHOPPIN’ 9 SONGS on dat bitch!! That’s like almost 2x MORE Big Wayne beats more than what I’ve heard from him (I think I only heard 5)!!! I asked him for favors, so I gon review this CD, ya dig! Also, Big Wayne, if you’re readin’ this: Send me your rappin’ music (‘cause I heard you rap also)!! I wanna play your music on my radio shift!! Now, I ain’t gonna waste anymore time, so here it goes! Here goes my review fa Lil’ Boosie & Hurricane Chris Category 7: A Bad Azz Hurricane!! Also stay tuned for tha Lil’ Boosie SuperBad: The Return Of Boosie Bad Azz commercial comin’ REAL soon!! I’m just trainin’ for it ‘cause I’m addin’ a theme/idea to it!! Start Time: 1:03 PM | End Time: 2:37 PM


Quick Note: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0. Each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself with 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) so 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.

01. Intro
Tha start of it all… Let’s FINALLY see what we got here!! >>> This seems like an interestin’ collaboration CD here!! Nice job on tha hook-up, and it looks like tha intro sounds ANTICIPATIN’ enough for this mixtape!! Like tha whole “hurricane” theme! My Rating: N/A


02. “Bad Azz Hurricane”
A part of tha title, and we got Guss on tha beat!! Let’s see what we gon formulate for a start!! >>> Nice lil’ catchy talkin’ in tha beginning, and now, tha beat came on at :20! This iz a betta Guss beat than what I’ve heard recently on CDs. Boosie, you’re doin’ a NICE job on this 1st verse right here! Glad you brought Baton Rouge back to tha mainstream a lil’ bit wit your latest CD! Glad people are payin’ attention; they need ta pay MORE attention!! Catchy rhymes here for a club song; good job! Tha title iz catchy; imagine if there was a hurricane sound effect in tha hook, lol. Nice job, and Hurricane iz on tha 2nd verse, makin’ this sound like it has good quality! Yea, “smellin’ like a kush tree;” thumbs up ta Hurricane! I’m surprised I’m a year older than him; then, he’ll respect me, lol. Oh shit, only 2 verses? Still, it was a NICE intro track! My Rating: 4.3


03. “Chest Wide Open”
Now this title looks more clubby… Y’all have Rodney on tha beat, so let’s see what he’s about… >>> LOL @ tha introduction again; I guess y’all hostin’ tha mixtape, lol! Nice job this time, Hurricane. Here’s tha beat, comin’ in at about nearly tha :20 mark again. Oh, I heard “beats how you want ‘em” (or w/e that iz); that’s Rodney all along? That’s REALLY watz good ‘cause he does tha damn thang on tha beats!! Shout out ta Sam I Am! Tha beat iz DEFINITELY cool here, and it makes tha track sound REAL nice! Nice job on tha hook here; nothin’ but a plus comin’ from me! Here we go wit tha 1st verse from Hurricane Chris, and we got some hood shit goin’ on here, lol. Yea, “niggaz get shot ova stupid shit like diamonds;” I agree. What’s even worse iz MONEY!! Why are people so fuckin’ greedy?!? I got 2 dollaz right now, and I’m okay ‘cause I’m doin’ all these reviewz, commercials, and all dat, ya dig!! Here we are wit Boosie on tha 2nd verse, and lol @ tha “Boosie Boyz” part. Sounds like Boosie REALLY keepin’ it street here on this verse; nice job! Nice shit right here, as I can’t decide if tha 1st song or this was betta. My Rating: 4.3


04. “Deebo”
Didn’t check tha ID yet, but I heard a 10th of a second of tha beginning, and it HAS ta be Big Wayne on tha beat!! *Checks ID* YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like Deal Or No Deal, I just made a FUCKIN’ GR8 deal!!! DJ Big Wayne on tha beat, and tha length iz 4:28!!! Tha odds were SO EASY fa him ta appear on tha beat ‘cause if he got 9 on here, then there’s a “51/50” (lol) chance, since there’s 17 songs on here! And what iz this title?? This gon be REAL, REAL anticipatin’!!! *Takes a deep breath!* >>> Tha intro iz soundin’ nice and dark; MUCH BETTA beat than tha song on tha SuperBad CD!! Sounds like Boosie sayin’ he knockin’ out people wit tha title or somethin’… Nice start wit tha beat and hook, and now, tha 1st verse from Hurricane Chris! He doin’ a nice job here on tha verse, deliverin’ some club shit right here. Good job on tha 1st verse, but hearin’ Boosie on tha hook makes me feel that Boosie would do a MUCH betta job on a verse; he HAS ta be on tha 2nd verse… Yup, he iz, and he soundin’ good right here! Nice job on his verse, and there’s still 1:51 on tha length, so this CD FINALLY gon have a 3rd verse!! Shit, there’s no feature on tha 3rd verse. Even on WOS, there was no listing of who it was… It sounded like it mixed in good, whoeva it was… My Rating: 4.5


05. “Fuck All You Hoes”
Wow, ANOTHA GR8 DEAL!!! My boy Big Wayne on tha beat again!! He’s someone I got a HUGE amount of luv for, ESPECIALLY since he’s way younger than me!!! I luv talkin’ ta him, and I REALLY look forward ta doin’ buku shit fa him!! This song can be anything, so let’s see how it goes… >>> More of tha mixtape hostin’ in tha beginning, as Hurricane Chris iz talkin’ in tha beginning… It’s always almost 20 seconds for tha beat ta kick in, as it took 18 seconds! Although tha last song was betta for a song, this beat right here iz MUCH BETTA!!! :tu And what’s up wit that sample sayin’ tha title? It’s REAL TIGHT!!! It’s so fuckin’ random like a soundboard, lol!! LMAO @ Boosie on tha 1st verse; he’s CRAZY wit this shit!! Much more catchy shit here, unexpectedly!! ROFL @ tha sample in tha hook!! :rofl TOO GR8 right here!! That’s why it’s such a REAL GR8 blessin’ ta be fuckin’ wit Big Wayne in a MAJOR way!! He tha truth ‘cause when I hit him up on MySpace, he rememba’d who I was, unlike a bunch of fake people who don’t give a shit about me!! Now, Hurricane Chris iz on tha 2nd verse, and it sounds like he really inta buyin’ pussy and shit. I felt Boosie’s verse much betta, ESPECIALLY on his flow! My Rating: 4.7


06. “Gangsta Shit”
WAIT, ANOTHA BIG WAYNE BEAT ALREADY?!? LEMME GET A DRINK!!! *Gets a drink* LOL!! I’ve been updating my wall in my room of rappers/producers/people I fuck wit, and I now printed out Big Wayne. When I was showin’ my cousin Jacqueline err-body, I mentioned Big Wayne, as I said, “This guy produces for Lil’ Boosie.” She then said, “I know Lil’ Boosie.” I then showed her Big Wayne, and she’s like “*Questioned look of who he iz* Look at that guy’s mouth (referrin’ to Big Wayne’s current default pic)!” LOL! REALLY lookin’ forward ta this “gangsta shit” wit Big Wayne on tha beat though!!! >>> And here’s Hurricane wit anotha intro! He sounds like he predictin’ this song gon go HARD! LMAO, I guessed right in my head; tha beat started 20 seconds in again!! This beat iz just like #4, although I feel it’s MUCH betta once again!! Hurricane, you’re on tha 1st verse, and it sounds REAL TIGHT wit that Big Wayne beat!! This iz JUST as good as tha previous song!! NICE job on tha 1st verse, Hurricane!! REAL GLAD this song iz almost 5 minutes long (4:54 on tha length)!! Nice collaboration hook, and now, Boosie’s on tha 2nd verse! Startin’ it off wit “you can kiss my ass!” It’s TOUGHNESS right here, lol! LOL @ his “don’t I be wit Hurricane, fuckin’ all tha shorties” part; sounded GR8! Soundin’ just as good as tha Hurricane verse; tha beat iz CRAZY here, ESPECIALLY before tha verse ended!!! Although he “took off like a rocket,” Boosie’s back on tha 3rd verse! Tha beat just GOIN’ NUTS!!! He goin’ hard on this verse, and I can’t stop commentin’ on tha beat!!! TOO CRAZY!!! My Rating: 4.8


07. “Going Hard Tonight”
I see 5:32 on tha length, so you KNOW who I think iz doin’ tha beat (WITHOUT even hearin’ a piece of it ‘cause it’s seconds shorter than tha “Bullshit” song on Boosie’s SuperBad CD)!!! *Checks ID* And I thought I needed my glasses ta see tha producer’s name on my laptop at tha end of my room, but NO!! It’s BIG WAYNE AGAIN!!!!! Plus, that title looks like it would be like tha last song, so this should be a GR8 song again!!! >>> Here comes a Boosie intro wit Hurricane; looks like Boosie has a favorite on this CD already! It took 28 seconds ta come on, and it’s off to a slower start, but I like tha keys that are playin’. I thought tha hook sounded familiar, but Hurricane says that in “She’s Fine (Halle Berry)”. NICE job on tha catchiness on tha hook! Tha 1st verse from Boosie, and it’s soundin’ good wit tha EXTREME interestin’ shit goin’ on in tha beat! It’s like every line adds somethin’ in tha beat; that’s how GR8 it iz!! Boosie not “Halle Berryin’;” he “Rihannain’,” lol! Nice job on tha 1st verse, and good thing tha hook iz here again! Now, we got Hurricane on tha 2nd verse, LUVIN’ his “ratchettttttttt” shit, lol! I think I need ta make a commercial fa this CD too ‘cause of HOW HOT it iz!!! Nice job on tha 2nd verse, although I thought I was gonna hear about some Halle Berry a lil’ bit, lol! Boosie startin’ a jiggalatin’ verse here wit “stickin’ an X-pill,” lol! From tha jiggalatin’ start to tha “Keyshia Cole” ending of tha 3rd verse, lol. Nice job here, and I’m luvin’ tha catchiness!! Big Wayne has a NICE piano ending too here!! My Rating: 4.5


08. “Grim Reaper” Feat. Locco
Perfect for Halloween right here!! This might be dickridin’ ta Music Choice ‘cause it has Phunk Dawg on tha beat. Either way, wit a title like that, I expect REAL GOOD expectations!!! >>> And Hurricane Chris iz on tha intro, but a lil’ bit scary for me in tha beginning wit tha sadness of losin’ people; scared ta hear it… At about 24 seconds in, it kicked in… This iz gay! Why do we need ta have a depressin’ song on a mixtape? This iz NOT an album!! Unknown singer on tha hook that scared me. What’s wit these producers bein’ all versatile and shit? It’s NOT called for! Wow, tha hook iz even worse; BAD singin’ for me!! I don’t even think I commented on tha 1st verse ‘cause I was so destracted! I guess it was okay for what it was. It sounds like Hurricane iz betta on his 2nd verse. I can’t believe I fell into this trap! Even a 3rd verse wit only 32 seconds left? It’s Boosie, and it’s just more lyrics applied ta this song. Matter a’fact, it’s Boosie & Hurricane; nice job on tha 4ths of verses; even a fade-out outro fa this was good. And for those that wanna whine their asses off, FINE! I’ll give a lyrical rating. :confused Lyrical Rating: 4.4 | My Rating: 1.6


½time: Well, tha average CD rating dropped 4/10s of a point because of #8… But, other than that, tha rest of tha mixtape has been REALLY causin’ a hurricane, wit NOTHIN’ but REAL TIGHT jointz!!! Luvin’ it, ESPECIALLY tha production team, and I KNOW it gon keep it up… HOPEFULLY!!! Average CD rating iz 4.1!


09. “Southside”
I was greedy, so I looked at tha producer right away… BIG WAYNE!!! HOPEFULLY, this shit iz MUCH betta than #8!!! >>> And we got a Big Wayne production intro (neva heard that intro from him before)!! Glad Boosie claimed him as “Producer Of Tha Year;” he should win an award!! DEFINITELY a nice beat here, and it sounds like tha hook iz simple wit its title; I like it! Tha 1st verse from Boosie iz TIGHT!! Luvin’ all tha spellings, ESPECIALLY “B-A-T-O-N-R-O-U-G-E!!” :tu REAL NICE job on tha 1st verse, and this TIGHTNESS gon continue!! And here comes Hurricane Chris on tha 2nd verse, “settin’ yo fuckin’ face on fire!!” Talk about “RATCHETTTTT!!!!!” NICE job on this shit, and Hurricane too good, so he had ta do tha 3rd verse!! Oh wait, it’s a collaboration verse ‘cause Boosie doin’ tha damn thang too on tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse! I thought it was gonna be in 4ths, but it was only a ½. My Rating: 4.4


10. “Lime Lite”
I KNEW by tha long length that Big Wayne would be on tha beat!! A NICE 5:25 on tha length this time!! Not sure of tha title though; BETTA not be versatile!!! >>> Hearin’ Boosie in tha intro, and it sounds like it’s an anti-haters song? Hurricane addin’ some shit ta it too. Let’s see when tha beat comes in… At :37, it sounds like it’s off to a pretty good start. But, unlike tha Phunk Dawg beat, at least this one changes A WHOLE LOT!! Tha hook sounds like it tryna destroy tha bullshit in tha world, so that’s watz good! Boosie, you’re doin’ a good job defeatin’ tha haterz on tha 1st verse; really enjoyin’ tha beat too wit your rappin’!! Nice job, and now, I’m ready fa Hurricane on tha 2nd verse… I hear his anger, so he tired of tha bullshit goin’ on in tha world! Nice job on your attitude, Hurricane! Hurricane also on tha 1st ½ of tha 3rd verse, deliverin’ more of his anger! And Boosie on tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse, expressin’ his anger! My Rating: 4.2


11. “Money, Money, Money”
Looks like a familiar title, but we all know it’s on like buku people’s CDs! Guss made this beat, so let’s see how y’all click together again!! >>> It’s for tha dudes wit money and a bitch; thanx for tha info Hurricane! At :25, tha beat started, and it’s DEFINITELY REAL NICE!! Luv these interestin’ beats to tha fullest!! Extreme fuckin’ness goin’ on here on tha 1st verse from Hurricane! Boosie sounds catchy on tha hook, although it sounds like he got it from Youngbloodz Feat. Big Boi “85”. Boosie iz now on tha 2nd verse, and it sounds like it’s soundin’ MUCH betta wit tha beat!! Nice, short verse; why are tha verses so short?? Now, tha 3rd verse from Hurricane. He did a nice job expressin’ more of his attitude. Boosie joined in on tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse; good shit! Boosie really a “bad azz” here, lol. Tha 4th verse from Boosie, and it sounds like it’s just a regular rapper’s verse. Nice shit here; good job, Guss!! My Rating: 4.4


12. “Purple”
I saw who produced it (Phunk Dawg) before I could read tha title, lol… *Checks title* Well, wit a title called “Purple,” this CAN’T be on some depressin’ shit!! >>> Soundin’ real quiet in tha beginning… My typin’ iz louder than you, Hurricane. Now, it got louder at :30, and it’s still goin’; y’all luv your “purple!” :tu Tha beat FINALLY started at 1:07, and iz soundin’ betta! Now, this WORKS for its title unlike tha last song!! Tha beat sounds like you’re in a daze, so that’s a PLUS!! :tu LOL @ all tha “purp-a-purp-a-purp” shit in tha hook; REAL TIGHT!!! Wow, 2:00 in, and no verses yet, lol! ??? Hurricane, you came in REAL FAST on tha 1st verse, lol!! REAL NICE, but Phunk Dawg, we don’t need ta hear, “Phunk Dawg exclusive!,” throughout tha whole song!! It was good enough 2x in tha beginning! I like how Hurricane said, “brah.” :tu DEFINITELY nice wit tha “purp” lyrics and all dat, ya dig! Here’s tha 2nd verse from Boosie, and you KNOW it gon be REAL GR8 when it’s about “purple!” LOL @ all tha slow rhymes; REALLY feelin’ tha slow flow on tha 1st 4 lines!! Now, tha rappin’ speeded up, and it STILL on its “purple” shit! :tu REAL NICE 2nd verse, and tha song iz over already for 5:07! My Rating: 4.7


13. “Shaking That Ass Enough”
Just ‘cause I like tha way tha title iz put (wit “enough” bein’ added to tha title), I’m gonna prolly REALLY enjoy this, ESPECIALLY since someone SPECIAL iz on tha beat!! And, that SPECIAL producer iz…
DJ BIG WAYNE!!! Let’s hear this HUGE anthem!!!!! >>> I knew it was gonna be pretty fast; let’s see how CRAZY it gets!!! Soundin’ REAL GOOD, and tha hook from Hurricane iz DEFINITELY catchy!! I’m lookin’ forward ta hearin’ more shit ta go on in tha beat!! LOL, here we are wit Boosie on tha 1st verse, luvin’ them TIT-TAYZ!! :) I hear some beat patterns from Big Wayne in tha 1st verse!! :tu I like tha “you must be takin’ booty shots” too; catchy-ass shit here!! Now, we got Hurricane on tha 2nd verse, doin’ his thang on this Big Wayne beat! Soundin’ kinda long, and I almost got lost in it fa a second, but it’s all good. Yes, a 33 second beat outro wit Big Wayne on tha beat! Lookin’ forward ta hearin’ JUST tha beat!! Yea, it sounds REAL GR8, ESPECIALLY tha beat pattern (e.g., at 3:04)!!! My Rating: 4.2


14. “Pain “Lil’ Ivey”” Feat. Locco
Oh, so Locco raps too? I know him as a producer on Jigga City J-Bo Feat. Puppy & B-Don “I’m So Fly”, tha 1st and ONLY time I heard him produce somethin’, which came out REAL nice!! And what’s up wit tha title? Are we goin’ down tha drain again? Doesn’t Boosie have a title like this on his actual CD? Please, Big Wayne, DON’T fuck up this beat!!! >>> No intro! :( I think Lil’ Ivey has an “e” in his name. So, this iz that singer from tha last song? Not rapper? Not goin’ for it, although it’s not tha worst! So, I have ta sit here for anotha 4:43…? Tha 1st verse iz soundin’ pretty good though; likin’ tha lyrics, tha attitude, and how you said, “brah,” Boosie. :tu I don’t know really anything about Lil’ Ivey, but if he was on Nu$$ie’s Featuring Nu$$ie CD, then why do you like him, Boosie? I thought you weren’t on Nu$$ie’s side? Tha 2nd verse has a good attitude too. I heard your “on his 25th birthday” part at tha end of tha 2nd verse. Iz that why you say, “If you make it ta see 25…,” on tha “No Mercy” song wit C-Loc? In my opinion, all this young age killin’ iz homosexuality ta me! I say that ‘cause it’s like, why are people so obsessed wit doin’ this shit? It’s such a homo thing ‘cause it’s like a guy touchin’ anotha guy wit somethin’. Once again, for tha whiners, and tha rating iz EXTREMELY high!! Lyrical Rating: 4.3 | My Rating: 3.1


15. “Struggle”
Anotha gay title for me. I hope Guss ain’t change his style this time!! >>> A Hurricane Chris intro; tha beat BETTA not be disappointin’!! I wanna hear good lyrics on a GOOD beat!! BOO @ tha beat! What iz this? Not feelin’ tha beat at all! Boosie startin’ tha 1st verse off, and this iz just a duplicate of tha last song! I feel tha same about tha rappin’, flow, and lyrics on this one like tha last song. At least this hook doesn’t have depressin’ singin’ in it. Was that even a hook? It went straight into tha 2nd verse I think wit Hurricane Chris. An aight verse, doin’ ya thang on it, Chris. Now, I hear tha hook, nearly 3 minutes in. Yea, but iz this like every single rapper? An aight ending verse too. I think I like tha otha song overall, but this hook was better. I don’t care anyway ‘cause it’s not somethin’ I’ll play! Lyrical Rating: 4.3 | My Rating: 3.0


16. “Hate To Hear Our Name”
Tha last Big Wayne beat on this CD, and it’s 5:48!! REALLY luvin’ tha length, so hopefully, we have an up wit tha way I like tha songs now!! >>> Wit Hurricane in tha beginning, it sounds like it gon be anotha anti-hataz song! Tha beat started at :47, and it’s soundin’ like a NICE, slow Big Wayne start; luv his beat sounds!! Yea, tha beat has multiple sounds in tha hook! Nice job on this shit, and tha hook iz pretty good! Sounds like Boosie comin’ through like he a star on tha 1st verse here. I like tha “my clips hang low like anacondaz” part, Boosie! Good job deliverin’ tha 1st verse, and now, tha 2nd verse iz here… Hurricane soundin’ regular on this; not much ta comment. Tha fast rappin’ was NICE at 3:35! Boosie’s back on tha 3rd verse, “shakin’ them hataz off” as much as possible! Cool rappin’, so I’ll give it a plus. Lemme ask this: Outta 9 Big Wayne beats, how come only one had him talkin’ in tha beginning? Every otha beat I heard from him has his name all ova it. Just ‘cause it’s Boosie, you shouldn’t get shy! My Rating: 4.3


17. “She’s Fine (Halle Berry) (Remix) (Boosie Verse)”
Look @ all those parentheses! I put “remix” in it ‘cause I know Boosie ain’t in tha original; lol @ 1:04 on tha length! Let’s see how Boosie did on this bleh song, produced by Supastaar (sp?). >>> No comment; made me wanna puke wit tha “do tha booty dew” shit! A below average verse iz a below average verse, so that’s all I have ta say! My Rating: 2.2


Overall: A lil’ weird towards tha end, but basically, tha whole mixtape was STR8 fire!!! Too bad for tha Boosie verse at tha end countin’ as a whole song. :td But anyway, I DEFINITELY enjoyed listenin’ and reviewin’ this! I’m sure Big Wayne luvs tha review; I gon post it on his page right now! Glad ta have this CD (still waitin’ on a hard copy) and make a commercial for it soon!
