Review #577: Percy Campbell "Just A Sample EP"

Reviewed on 7.22.2010 (Review #577)


Time fa my final review of tha day; #10!!!!! It’s Percy Campbell “Just A Sample EP!! DEFINITELY gonna look forward to this and gettin’ some of dis shit on tha radio!! Start Time: 11:59 PM | End Time: 12:26 AM


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.

01. “Act A Asshole” Feat. Q-Red & Young Ready
Look at dis lineup wit J Buc on tha beat!! DEFINITELY gon be a BANGA right chea!! >>> Tha beat start sounds interestin’ here; good beat!! Tha hook’s definitely focused here and iz tight! You’re on tha 1st verse and it sounds like you’re DEFINITELY havin’ “a grinda” status, ya dig! I feel like I REALLY wanna get this shit on tha radio, regardless of tha “asshole” part in tha title! Q-Red on tha 2nd verse? Then, why tha hell’s Ready 1st in tha ID? :confused Sounds cool wit Q-Red here; I had my anticipation ready in tha beginning! Good Ready shit goin’ on here in tha 3rd verse; he that focused huh? Wish he would focus on me more wit certain thingz. Regardless, I’ll keep pumpin’ tha reviewz out there like it’s nothin’ (same thing wit tha videoz)! My Rating: 4.6


02. “It’z About 2 Go Down”
Looks familiar wit Ice Redd on tha beat… LOL, it was tha name of dat multi single review I did tha otha day… Tha beat’s pretty cool and tha hook sounds good… Tha 1st verse starts off wit a “Louisiana” beginning; good shit! Nice job holdin’ it “down” for tha Boot! Pretty good wit how tha 2nd verse sounds. I look forward to hear who else you team up wit! You even provided a 3rd verse, which fit good on this shit too… <- add:="" b="" to=""> Who’s “AJ?” Can I write him? Also, I like tha lil’ “Gardere” shout out in tha 2nd verse! I feel this more than tha 1st time I heard it… My Current Rating: 4.3


03. “I’m A Grinder” Feat. Adlib
J Hook beat this time; let’s see how gr8 this’ll be… >>> Ooh, cool start in tha beat… Good hook but scary 90’s R&B-type background vocals… Sounds good wit your rappin’ on tha 1st verse here; catchy rhymes. Tha 2nd verse keeps this shit hot, ya dig! This iz 4:43 and there’s only two verses? :confused My Rating: 4.0


½time: DEFINITELY a GR8 EP from you, my boy! A 4.3 average CD rating so far; keep up tha GR8 work!!


04. “Ciroc (Remix)” Feat. James Jackson & Level
Once again, J Hook on tha track! What’s this title? “C-I-Rock?” >>> Oh, so tha “dah-duh-dah-duh-duh” sound effect iz J Hook’s beat tag? Oh… Very hot hook!! Oh, it’s a drink? I thought it was like “see, I rock” or somethin’ like dat, lol! Nice job deliverin’ tha 1st verse to tha fullest, ya dig!! Huh? Newbie James Jackson on tha 2nd verse? What’s wit tha fucked up order in tha ID once again? Hope there’s no dickridin’ wit whoeva made tha back cover… Anyway, good shit for a newbie; I’m feelin’ it! Feelin’ how Level’s comin’ through on tha 3rd verse wit EVERYTHING he spittin’; DEFINITELY luv Level to tha fullest!! My Rating: 4.8


05. “Inked Up”
Not even on tha back cover or on tha DatPiff tracklisting, smh… I hope I can ID everything on it… >>> Sounds familiar but I didn’t see it anywhere… Good rhymes here ova dis catchy beat! Tha hook’s okay and sounds good when it’s on this beat… Tha 2nd verse iz interestin’ throughout tha hood too; dat beat’s consistent! “Tattoo shop” anthem, lol! My Rating: 4.1


06. “Gotta Get Dat Paper” Feat. Y-Kean & Adlib
Must be from tha otha CD based off tha features and tha Ice Redd beat… Yes, it iz and what a way to ruin a 5-star automatic rating, smh… I’m really not feelin’ all this 90’s R&B-type shit goin’ on within tha 1st 49 seconds; boring… Tha 1st verse’s barely on tha okay level for me. Tha 2nd verse iz dat Y-Kean gurl… Not much interest in this song overall. My Current Rating: 2.6
EDIT: Back cover says #5 (which iz what I went by) but DatPiff tracklisting iz completely messed up and mp3 file has it as #6? Also, they’re missin’ “Inked Up” on tha back?


Overall: Doin’ tha damn thang!! DEFINITELY feelin’ your connection ‘round tha city of Baton Rouge, ya heard me? Keep doin’ ya thang to tha fullest and stay on dis music shit!
