Review #455: X-Mob "Ghetto Mail"

Reviewed on 5.07.2010 (Review #455)




It’s now time fa my 4th review today (already)!! Up next iz X-Mob wit Ghetto Mail; let’s see what dis shit’s all about!! Par-Le Records in tha buildin’!! Start Time: 3:20 PM | End Time: 4:13 PM



Quick Note: 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) 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.

I guess I gotta keep hearin’… Nice job contributin’ to tha 1st verse, ya dig. Sounds like some raw, street shit comin’ through outta tha 2nd verse. Tha voice DEFINITELY sounds good fa dis shit right chea! Keepin’ this shit comin’, tha 3rd verse DEFINITELY has a REAL GR8 sound to it wit tha “let my nuts hang”-type intro to tha verse! Most definitely, you’re DEFINITELY bringin’ a NICE street sound ta dis shit right chea!! My Rating: 4.3


05. “Come Take A Look”

07. “To Da Ballers (Radio)”
Radio edit? Iz there a dirty version somewhere… No, there izn’t so I gon just review dis version. >>> Pretty good beat right chea and tha hook sounds good wit this GR8 vibe!! Definitely some good quality hood/good times-type o’ rhymes comin’ through in tha 1st verse right chea! Tha start to tha 2nd verse sounds anticipatin’ fa tha ladies wit, “Can I get it wet?” and they sayin’, “Yeah!” Tha dude on tha 3rd verse “smellin’” good fa dis shit right chea as he “smellin’ like dat Mary Jane” and spittin’ good hood lyrics! Ooh, tha 3rd verse split in ½ here wit some good shit bein’ spit in tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse! My Rating: 4.2


08. “Keith”
Who’s “Keith?” >>> Uh oh, looks like he’s a trouble-maker! Interestin’ rhymes right chea ‘bout dis “Keith” dude as y’all tryin’ ta get through his bullshit in tha hood. Tha 1st verse just REALLY keepin’ it hood!! Y’all DEFINITELY sound like y’all grown from tha “Keith” situation ‘cause y’all spit some good-ass shit! I like how there’s an outro on this shit right chea; thumbs up ta tha talkin’! My Rating: 4.0


09. “The Game”
This a long joint right chea; how will y’all do wit it? >>> A long phone call in tha beginning (only 36 seconds). Interestin’ hook dat sounds like it’s whinin’, in a funny way, “I don’t give a fuuuck!” Tha 1st verse sounds pretty smooth right chea… Nice and long ta where y’all explained a lot, ya dig. Tha 2nd verse sounds motivated; “I’ve been writin’ rhymes.” I don’t have much ta say about it but good job… Tha 3rd verse has some shit goin’ on… I can’t really comment on it ‘cause I don’t know what ta say… kinda ta where this song’s gettin’ a lil’ too long… My Rating: 3.6


10. “Jacking In The South”
There’s a LOT of it now! Let’s see what y’all gotta say about it, ’95 style!! >>> Soundin’ pretty good in tha beat and tha 1st verse has y’all “ready ta go ta war;” prepared-ass shit! Sounds like a bunch of shit goin’ on around tha 1:25 – 1:35 mark; nice job exchangin’ positions in verses! Nice job throughout tha whole thang here and it sounds raw at tha end wit tha “stealin’” shit! My Rating: 4.1


11. “Ghetto Mail (Radio)”
Thanx for tha radio edit! See #4 fa tha review!


12. “Playa Hater (Outro)”
Oh, an outro/song? Let’s see how it sounds! >>> Sounds like a lil’ smooth beat ta go wit tha endin’… I’m actually feelin’ tha lil’ sample ta go wit dis kinda joint. I’m guess y’all just gon talk about these “playa haters” ova dis beat like an outro. Sounds like y’all gonna rap or somethin’ on this… Okay, here it iz, finally, a lil’ afta 2:30. Sounds good fa what it was; it was short so I gon rate it a lil’ somethin’. My Rating: 3.7


Overall: Nice job wit dis CD right chea! Tha hood lyrics DEFINITELY pay off when I hear ‘em and you KNOW I luv ‘em!! Keep up tha gr8 work, guys!
