Review #854: Carolinah "Live From Da Block (Hosted by DJ PK1)"

Reviewed on 3.04.2011 (Review #854)


Comin’ up next, it’s an artist by tha name of Carolinah, wit his CD, Live From Da Block (Hosted by DJ PK1). Despite his name, he reps Baton Rouge. Start Time: 9:24 AM | End Time: 9:41 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. 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
>>> LOL, DJ PK1 tag for tha intro? Didn’t realize he’s hostin’ it… My Rating: N/A


02. Info
>>> What? This iz tha “Tip” beat from Sheen~Marie; why iz it here? :confused Just curious… Still a part of tha intro but thanx fa dis “info”! My Rating: N/A


03. “Act Bad”
>>> What? It’s really tha “Tip” beat; how?!? Takin’ too long fa me ta get interest; hurry up! You sound pretty-good wit dis but nothin’ compares to tha late Sheen~Marie, tha late Nu$$ie & Tah-Tah Baby’s “Tip”! Her song was ‘08/’09; dis iz ’10. Anyway, I think this iz aight/good, overall. My Rating: 4.0


04. Info 2
Anotha one, lol? >>> DJ PK1 e-mail this time, lol. My Rating: N/A


05. “Alright”
>>> Tha beat sounds cool, here; let’s see how you come on it… This “alright, fuckin’ right” shit sounds familiar; have I heard dis before? Even though nothin’ excitin’, tha rhymes are catchy, at times. I like tha “blowin’ on kush” shit; thumbs up fa bein’ you. My Rating: 4.1


06. “King”
>>> LOL, PK1 comin’ through wit mo shit… SMH, a random jacked beat; hope all these beats ain’t secretly jacked… This iz decent; tha beat lacks interest fa me. My Rating: 3.4


07. “Beaming” Feat. J.B. August & Iago
Iz dat three people? >>> This iz only decent, too… Tha beat iz a lil’ interestin’ at tha same time… I heard tha J.B. dude talk before tha 2nd verse and I found out dat it’s one name (J.B. August); decent from him, Iago, and you, which makes dis whole joint decent, overall. My Rating: 3.6


08. “Shoes”
>>> “Original track”? Not really likin’ dis production. Again, only decent fa me when tha rhymes are tryin’ ta be tight, but they’re just decent. My Rating: 3.5


09. “80’s Baby”
Why iz it so short? >>> Disco? Not tha kinda beat I wanna hear wit a Baton Rouge artist. Now, tha rhymes are a lil’ betta? Wrong combo. My Rating: 3.2


½time: A 3.6-rated CD, so far.


10. “Konichiwa” Feat. Iago
>>> How dare you use Robyn’s label name like dis; shame on you guys!!! My Rating: 1.0


11. “Can’t Fuck Wit Me”
>>> How can you go from such wack-ass shit ta an attitude like dat? Doesn’t work like dat fa me! This ain’t too bad, overall. My Rating: 3.5


12. “In Da Club” Feat. Kenteon
>>> Sorry, not bein’ bothered afta hearin’ dat intro!! My Rating: 1.0


13. “Block Musik”
Again, how can you go from such wack-ass shit ta an attitude/perspective like dis?!? >>> Tha beat sounds pretty good and tha rhymes are good on dis beat; good comeback. My Rating: 3.8


14. “D-Boi” Feat. April & Huey P
>>> A lot of consistent rhymes in tha beginning but I can’t really connect to havin’ full interest wit ‘em. Tha hook sounds a lil’ catchy on dis beat wit tha vocalizin’. My Rating: 3.6


15. Interview Live From Drum Major Music Studios
>>> SMH @ “Soul Survivor” beat; scary… “All original beats”? No… Not bad wit tha interview, overall. My Rating: N/A


16. “Act Bad (Remix)” Feat. Teezy Boi & Red
>>> What a horrible switch-up from tha Sheen~Marie beat; maybe she should be brought back ta life!!! My Rating: 1.0


17. “Shit Handled” Feat. Eveyln
>>> Tha gurl sounds pretty catchy on dis shit. Either way, decent; don’t even need ta hear more. My Rating: 3.3


18. “Get Wit”
>>> Sounds like an old song wit tha quality; a lil’ catchy but doesn’t sound like Southern music to me. SMH @ tha “Bring ‘Em Out” shit; why? My Rating: 3.0


Overall: As always, when I hear unknown artists, I don’t expect anything.
