Review #603: Big Fancy "Tha Rap Kingpin"

Reviewed on 8.17.2010 (Review #603)


It’s about time I’m gettin’ back into this grind… I made an R.I.P. video for rapper Twelve A’Klok throughout this past week and had to make two commercials (and promote one of them on 1,000+ MySpaces). But, wit only 13 dayz ‘til my final semester starts, I have to get these 50+ current CD reviewz outta tha way for my radio show quickly!! Let’s start it off wit a hard copy (tha 1st of four, consistently): Big Fancy “Tha Rap Kingpin!! MEGA PROPS on not one, but like 20 hard copies of it, lol!! Start Time: 5:38 PM | End Time: 6:43 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.

Source (Where I Got Tha CD From): Big Fancy via mail


01. Intro
Tha lil’ “intro” here… Let’s see what’s good! >>> Didn’t expect a beat or singin’; unexpected here… Tha beat sounds jammin’; not much to say… My Rating: N/A


02. “I-10 Cowboy (Remix)” Feat. Kevin Gates, Tank Jones, Jack Da Rippa & Nu$$ie
Forgot tha “remix” on tha back cover… LOL, startin’ thangz off wit dis! I should’ve asked you if this CD came first or last; I considered it first since tha others I have are volumes… And, on tha back cover, there should either be “ ‘s ” for Down Bad or just Jack Da Rippa. Anyway, thought it was gonna be tha original but it’s tha remix and too bad Bro-Bro ain’t on tha remix. :( But, Beat Flippa’s still on tha beat and tha hook sounds betta here wit all that YELLIN’ (as I call it)! Much betta hook and Gates on tha 1st verse here… Not bad on his part although I rather hear Bro-Bro. Still, can’t deny Gates ‘cause he doin’ his thang, especially tha “Mr. Let-My-Pants-Sag” part! Gotta luv tha “BUKU MONEY!!!” part in tha hook!! Tank Jones on tha 2nd verse and he did his thang on this shit! Good shit from Jack Da Rippa on this shit too durin’ tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse! :tu I knew tha Nu$$ie verse was gonna be tha original. However, it sounded like tha beat got slower/nearly not matchin’? And why iz it clean? Still a nice job done. And, your 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse iz still here, King Fancy. I thought tha words at tha end of tha original was funny although it sounds hot wit just tha beat! My Current Rating: 4.7


03. “Everybody Know” Feat. EQ, J-Skillz & Lil’ Jamie
Look at this hot lineup!! Didn’t know EQ rapped but then again, doesn’t every producer in BR, lol? Lookin’ forward ta hearin’ this!! Plenty of CDs fulla HOT, new music fa me!!! >>> Sounds like Shonta on tha beat (like an “Uh Oh”) but it’s not. I had reviewed this producer (“do-do-do-do-doooo” beat sound) and it’s soundin’ gr8 here!! Almost like anotha “I-10 Cowboy”-type anthem fa tha hook; REAL HOT shit!! Must be EQ on tha 1st verse ‘cause I know tha others… Cool shit here; lol @ his street rhymes… LOL, mo street shit here from J-Skillz on tha 2nd verse and you’re supplyin’ a bunch of gr8 background vocals, King Fancy, lol! Even ended tha verse Dat Boy A & Young Kidd Kidd-style: “shoe box money;” dumb shit!! Let’s hear this Lil’ Jamie on tha 3rd verse… LOL, I always expect him to sound younger when he’s on tha mic but he’s like a grown-youngin’; sounded like spaces and edited words towards tha end of his ½ verse? :confused It was a cool lil’ check-in though and speakin’ of check-ins, lol, it had ta be you on tha 2nd ½, Fancy!! Looks like you’re ownin’ tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verses on your songs!! Now, this one has a gutta talkin’-ending and some of tha beat too! My Rating: 4.6
EDIT: Afta like 20 minutes of lookin’, it’s J Hook on tha beat (thanx to Percy Campbell’s EP that recently dropped)!!


04. “King Of Da City” Feat. Lil’ Jamie & EQ
They forgot tha “i” (lol, your favorite letter, Fancy) on tha back cover of Lil’ Jamie’s name! :rofl Anyway, tha lengths are gettin’ longer and longer and tha features are gettin’ shorter and shorter, lol! It’s all good; this’ll prolly be anotha one of those anthems!! >>> LOL, thought it was gonna say, “King Fancy,” in tha beginning of tha sample and I thought it was T.I., lol! It’s actually Gucci Mane but it sounds like a T.I.-type beat. This iz definitely hot shit right chea; keepin’ all consistency to a maximum here!!! Tha 1st verse must be Jamie; betta soundin’ this time!! LOL, wit all this length on tha song, tha verse was 2x shorter than I expected, lol? Maybe, this means, a full Fancy verse, lol? Let’s see what goes down… EQ’s on tha 2nd verse here and not “bruh,” but “brutha,” lol! I heard a “bruh” though and it’s soundin’ pretty tight wit all these “flippin’” terms too! LOL, here you are on tha 3rd verse and it’s less angry than tha hooks, lol! I like tha shit you spittin’ here; strictly “hustlin’” 100+% of tha time!! Damn, tha beat outro’s 1:10? At least this shit’s hot! Up, a quick fade-out of tha hook and 16 seconds of silence… My Rating: 4.5


05. “We Made It” Feat. Lil’ Jamie, Lil’ Dundray, Black Neno & Lewi Lov
I don’t know tha last two dudes and everyone’s barely familiar wit me so this can be real good! Hope that last artist iz spelled right; looks like tha “e” iz missin’ or somethin’ but we’ll see… >>> I like tha really screwed voice in tha beginning from you; dumb shit! Sounded like a lineup in tha beginning wit err-body on this shit! Tha hook iz usually one of those that are hit/miss for me but this iz definitely a hit wit tha hot production and tha tight lineup!! Tha 1st verse iz Lil’ Jamie and it’s cool; all about tha upcomin’ motivation… Tha 2nd verse’s up and tha voice and flow’s REALLY focused here; sounds real tight!! Switched up to a lil’ deeper voice on tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse here; sounds like a T.I. sound or somethin’. Must be tha BR version of T.I. or somethin’ goin’ on, which iz good fa y’all… Let’s see what’s up wit tha 3rd verse… LOL, you, Fancy? Sounds good… LOL, Lewi Lov has a weird flow here; sounds like talkin’… Might have ta hear him again ‘cause this sounded more like an outro than a 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse… Quite ironic dat I’m doin’ this review for you, Fancy, and when I started, a pic of Nu$$ie, Lil’ Cali & A1 was on tha background and now, a pic of Big Markee’s on my background (background’s mainly of rappers that shuffles every 30 minutes)! My Rating: 4.3


06. “Damn A Nigga Clean” Feat. Lady B & Lil’ Jamie
Missin’ tha “n” in “dam” but it’s cool… Thought this was tha “I’m So Clean” song for a second… Let’s see what’s poppin’ here… >>> Tha beat intro’s real hot and sounds like somethin’ I’ve heard before or somethin’… Back to tha extreme-energetic style here on tha hook!!! LOL, you a BEAST, Fancy!!! Tha 1st verse iz Lady B and she must luv this beat, lol; she doin’ her thang! Wow, what a HOT drum sound on tha 2nd hook!!! This iz just DEFINITELY crazy to tha fullest!! Even bringin’ Lil’ Jamie ONCE AGAIN, lol!!! Nice job from him but why no “ass” word on tha 2nd verse? Clean verse? Are there hidden radio edited verses in here? I like all tha “buku ___” in tha 3rd verse from you, Fancy; lol @ tha “clothes” part that sounded good and outta nowhere! My Rating: 4.7


½time: So far, it’s like lava; VERY HOT CD!!! I got “buku” of them in hard copies so you KNOW it’s DEFINITELY appreciated, Fancy!! Keep this REAL HOT shit comin’ wit tha HOT-ASS production and all these GR8 people you’re bringin’ along!!! Tha average CD rating’s FLAMIN’ HOT @ 4.6 right now!!!!!


07. “It Don’t Stop” Feat. Bro-Bro, Black Panther, Meko & Big Josh
Wow, a comeback on tha 1st two features and thumbs up to tha last two makin’ a debut/near-debut!!! I heard Big Josh once befo’ on a City Boy joint and now, this’ll be tha 2nd chance. However, he need ta get on tha roll ‘cause he hasn’t sent me any hard copies… But, wit Black Panther bein’ my most anticipated on here (only heard him on Nu$$ie’s “Bad Azz” CD), this’ll DEFINITELY be REAL HOT!!!!! >>> Here’s tha anticipatin’ beat start here wit you in tha beginning, speakin’! Oh, Big Josh did this beat; okay… Sounds like your other songs but it’s just consistent to tha fullest!!! Startin’ tha 1st verse off wit Bro-Bro here; sounds like how he came through on “I-10 Cowboy”! Gotta luv Bro-Bro; he’s REAL HOT wit tha flow and his attitude!! :tu LOL, no Lil’ Jamie this time!! :rofl Sorry, Jamie, but others had to come through, lol! Let’s hear this resurrected Black Panther… Almost sounds like Puppy and sounds pretty good; glad ta hear him again! It’s ALWAYS family wit y’all, no matter tha situation and who’s alive or not!! Tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse must be tha Meko dude; once again, it’s ALL family!! Must be Big Josh on tha 1st ½ of tha 3rd verse here; can be cool ta be wit but I want my CDs!!! I knew you would be on tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse, Fancy, lol! You must be tha 1st rapper in BR that has that Lady GaGa or Dance music-similar format: She has tha same beats usually and you usually have tha same format/lengths/lyrics/flows wit your songs. I know people’ll hate on that but I DEFINITELY feel it ALL tha time!! You KNOW I didn’t wanna see DAMN-NEAR EVERY fuckin’ Trance artist change their BPM ta a sour 128 so you KNOW this BR sound gon live on!!! Keep your soundings alive!!! My Rating: 4.6


08. “I’m So Clean” Feat. Lil’ Jamie & Down Bad
I guess this iz tha real title… Had it as a different title when I aired it on tha radio, which I don’t like airing different titles. Anyway, this reminded me of a mix of Bone Crusher and Ceddybu when I first heard it; addicting hook!! JR Dot does tha damn thang on tha lil’ “clean as a whistle” part too!! LOL, Jamie’s on tha 1st verse and too bad tha ID was flipped wrong when I aired it too. :( Jamie came through real nice on this bitch and I think this was tha 1st time I heard him, doin’ it big!! JR Dot’s on tha 2nd ½ of tha 1st verse and he delivers some good shit… LOL, Jack Da Rippa (who I believe friend-requested me on Facebook tha other day) made a short lil’ 4-line appearance, lol! JR’s holdin’ down dat “clean as a whistle” shit; this iz a different format from tha format-stereotype I talked about on tha last song, lol. LOL, back to tha calm Fancy on tha 3rd verse, lol! Tha “I’m so clean” part on tha verse sounds a lil’ ehh/lol on tha verse; much better soundin’ on tha hook though. Nice lil’ job from you, Fancy! My Current Rating: 4.5


09. “I’ma Make It Happen” Feat. Dat Boy A, Lil’ Jamie & Lil’ Mista
Whoa!! Didn’t expect dis comin’!! And, I no less talked about A a few songs back wit tha “shoe box money” quote, lol! REALLY lookin’ forward ta hear this!! I have a feelin’ it gon compete wit tha “I-10” rating of 4.7!!! >>> Sounded like a beat tag in tha beginning; glad I called tha 4.7 rating ‘cause tha beat sounds like it gon be REAL, REAL HOT!!! Shit, yea, Dat Boy A on tha hook so you KNOW this shit’s 100% HOT!!! I KNEW it!!! This gon be my top song on here, I betcha!!! Shit, yea, A’s on tha 1st verse too!!! Strictly gutta to tha fullest and just CRAZY wit him holdin’ it down on tha 1st verse; REAL GLAD we REAL cool wit each other!!! You’re also doin’ tha damn thang wit your “yeeehawww”in’ in tha background!! LOL, here’s tha 2nd verse from Mista and he’s anticipatin’ too on tha tracks; it’s payin’ off here too!! Nice ending wit tha “ya heard” although I thought it was a whole verse—ROFL @ tha unexpected, CRAZY Fancy!!!!! :rofl Tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse has been connected TIGHT by Big Fancy!!! LOL, this Mista again on tha 3rd verse? Sounds tight as fuck this time!! ANGRY Fancy at tha end, lol!! Oh, you said, “Lil’ Jamie’s on this too?” I knew someone was on tha 2nd verse although it did sound like Mista when there was no one else listed… Good looks on that as it’s an error on tha back cover! My Rating: 4.8


10. “Bandannaed Up” Feat. Lil’ Jamie, J-Skillz & Lady B
There’s always that error of tha missin’ “n” in “bandanna;” I used to do it ‘til I found out. Anyway, I expect REAL GUTTA on this track wit that kinda title!!! >>> Sounded like a few seconds of background sounds in tha beginning… LOL, tha beginning sounded exactly like tha “I-10 Cowboy” intro but you know it’s official, Fancy!! Tha beat’s hot here and tha hook’s pretty gutta, no matter if it’s a “dance” or not; gutta-ass shit!!! :tu Lil’ Jamie’s havin’ FULL EXPOSURE here on tha 1st verse once again, just ALWAYS appearin’ on these tracks!!! Tha 2nd verse iz J-Skillz and once again, he’s always a good one ta have featured on tha track! You’re on tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse this time, Fancy, lol!! Just STRICTLY gutta to tha bone!! Can’t ask fa mo on this HOT-ASS track right chea!!! Speakin’ of comebacks on tha tracks, what a HOT comeback for Lady B here on tha 3rd verse!!! Rapid-ass rappin’!!! My Rating: 4.6


11. “I’ma Pay Nu$$ie” Feat. Nu$$ie
Almost thought it was just you wit only 2:34 on tha length but you say Nu$$’s featured… Let’s see how this sounds for a quickie… >>> Ooh, tha beat started like an explosion, lol! Kinda sounds like a sample but it’s real here for Nu$$ on tha beginning! Tha beat’s a nice-soundin’ anthem, lol! Oh, not a hook but a whole verse here from Nu$$; good shit!! Kinda short for tha verse but it sounds tight, ya dig!! Tha hook’s interestin’ wit “payin’ Nu$$ie” ta “knock someone’s ass out!!” :tu He even hopped onto tha 2nd verse here; nice mix!! Likin’ his attitude at all times on this shit to tha fullest! You even add that hot flava to tha track too! Pretty tight-ass shit for a short song! Tha length iz under 2:30 now that there’s some seconds of silence at tha end… My Rating: 4.5


12. “I’m So Clean (Radio)” Feat. Lil’ Jamie & Down Bad
No title on tha back cover? :confused They forgot to put it on there so hopefully, I know what this iz (unless it’s just an outro)… >>> LOL, tha “Rose Royce” vehicle in tha beginning intro, lol! “Ohh” (lol), this iz just “I’m So Clean”; must be tha radio edit? Yup, it iz… Good looks on puttin’ it here! See #8 fa tha review!


Overall: “Ohhhhhhhhhhhh,” what a HOT-ASS CD right chea!!! You REAL, REAL crazy fa dis, Fancy!!! MEGA THUMBS UP on your crew and ALL tha consistency on this CD!!! EVERY SINGLE SONG WENT HARDER THAN A MA’FUKKA!!! I KNOW tha three “I-10 By 10 (Tha Compilation)” CDs I have gon DEFINITELY go off!!! Keep doin’ tha damn thang, my boy!!!
