Review #1,033: G-Lane "Back 2 Business (The Leak)"

Reviewed on 7.19.2011 (Review #1,033)


Was ‘pose ta continue my Louisiana Reviewz Marathon but tha day I last reviewed, my iPod had to be restored. Plus, a bunch of other shit was in my way that I had to—still handlin’, too—handle. :( But now, I gotta get some current reviewz outta tha way. Kickin’ off today iz G-Lane “Back 2 Business (The Leak). Before I start it, things have changed since tha 2009 review of tha “G-Lane Vol. 1” mixtape… Note that tha artists are tha ones that created tha changes; not me! So, there may be some guilty pleasures in this review that I have to resist on showin’ too much luv. Start Time: 9:47 AM | End Time: 11:09 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.

© 2011 CD Review (Review #1,033) reviewed on 7.19.2011 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. Young Sims “Hustle & Party”
When I think of “Young” in his name, I think of before I got ta talk ta him (before May 2009). Now that it’s July 2011, I guess tha age shrunk, lol? Should be a pretty tight joint, either way! >>> Nice intro for tha beginning of this CD; fits good for tha anticipation! Because he’s one that’s kept music secret from me, I feel dat this could be ’09, ’10, ’11, or older? Whateva it iz, I’ll know that it’s a 1st listen for me. Tha beat’s pretty hot and consistent, here, as well as tha interestin’ flow from Sims, here; likin’ how this track’s made, overall! I’m sure this iz somethin’ dat gon be reallll catchy ‘cause of not just this entertainin’ song but tha way Sims comes through wit tha entertainment, himself! My Rating: 4.7


02. BluBlack Feat. Supa “Same Night”
Better “night” than Katy Perry noticing a “hickey,” lol? I think this gon be a mega collab!! >>> Sounds like a production from Blu based off tha beat ta—ooh, likin’ tha beat sounds on tha intro, here! Yea, this sounds hotter than Katy Perry noticing a “hickey,” thanx ta Supa wit tha “hoes!” Definitely a tight hook! I guess Blu obsesses gurls too much? A lil’ like a triple twist? It’s always good ta go solo, like myself; I get so many things done without someone controllin’ me! Feelin’ all tha interestin’, entertainin’ shit from Blu on tha 1st verse; talk about alternatin’ between so much shit, lol! From all tha “hoes” shit ta tha “purp;” Blu’s always got his frequent, tight hobbies on lock, lol! Supa’s on tha 2nd verse, and it sounds pretty nice, of course; definitely tha shit at all times wit this entertainment! Huh? Who’s on tha 3rd verse? :confused Iz it Kidd? Betta hear their name!! Must be him since he said, “betta cuff her,” when his Facebook name says, “Kidd Nap Her;” I’ll see what Hannibal says about tha feature… My Rating: 4.6


03. Pezie Boy Feat. S.O.S. & BluBlack “Duck Down”
Finally, a song from Pezie again?!? Proves he ain’t just a one-hit-wonder! Was eatin’ my breakfast earlier and based off tha guilty pleasures that I saw, I was thinkin’ to myself, “*sigh* Why can’t Pezie be on it,” and now, he’s here! LOL, there’s “duck” in tha title, which goes good wit his “ducked off” status, at times, lol! You know I got sky-high anticipation fa dis one!! >>> Feelin’ tha darker sound of tha beat, here! Tha previous song (“Throw Your Numbers Up”) was automatic smokin’. Now, tha gangsta side of Pezie’s comin’ through, here; really feelin’ it, especially tha gutta-ass beat!!! This iz definitely somethin’ serious, here!! Good thing fa this exposure, here! Too bad Sheen~Marie died on his birthday! :( But, I gon keep his birthday as a special moment, regardless! Ooh, S.O.S. comin’ through wit some gangsta shit, too, on tha 2nd verse; I wonder what it’s like ta have these gangsta-type things goin’ on throughout tha hood, as well as doin’ gangsta things, too? Also, I’m glad Pezie’s handlin’ a hook; nothin’ but great exposure fa dat boy, here!!! Yay, Blu’s on tha 3rd verse wit his gangsta shit, too!! Hope this iz my top-rated song but I have a feelin’ somethin’ I know’ll be on here ta top it. But, this has ta be tha best new song I heard!! Damn, Blu just keeps comin’ through wit tha serious-ass shit in tha verse!! LOL @ his endin’ wit tha cocky-soundin’ way of sayin’, “nigga,” lol! My Rating: 4.9


04. BluBlack Feat. Butla & Big Head “Full”
Yes, Big Head, too!! Fits perfectly wit this day, lol! Last night, I had a dream and I was wit Big Head in a white car. He was rollin’ a blunt up and had a bunch of kush on him. Then, when we took off, he noticed a cop by tha pharmacy—when we were passin’ it—and he was like, “ohh!! Good thing we weren’t there!” LOL, I guess tha “pharmacy” goes wit tha gurl from near my block on Long Island that littered her pharmacy information, sayin’ she picked up 300 pillz, lol! What a crazy-ass jiggalatin’ gurl in our hood, lol!! But yea, heard this on “Da Cook Book”; real glad Blu has a connection wit Big Head, despite tha age difference! I sometimes think he sounds like Yung Yola… Here’s what I previously said: When tha tag goes, “DJ Bootsie & BluBlack…,” does dat me Blu & Bootsie produced it? Anyway, really likin’ tha intro wit wantin’ ta get “fulla dat!” Feelin’ tha 1st verse from Blu, really comin’ through wit some interestin’ shit, drug style and BluBlack-beat style!! Tha hook’s pretty catchy; lots of luv fa “loaded” shit, here! :tu Butla’s on tha 2nd verse and this shit’s really entertainin’!! “And if I smell yo ass;” watch out fa tha Butla!!! Let’s see what Big Head got ta say on tha 3rd verse… Speakin’ of “loaded,” on May 6, 2011, I hit up Dat Boy A on tha phone and Big Head surprisingly got on tha phone wit me. When we were done talkin’, he ended it wit “you sound like you fulla dem quaaludes,” rofl!! :rofl Such a funny ending!! Soundin’ good on tha 3rd verse, Big Head; nothin’ but consistentness, here!! A long, 50+-second beat outro? I guess this iz where you try to finish tha blunt before tha song ends… Uh oh, it’s gettin’ closer… Tha beat’s reversin’, lol! My Current Rating: 4.8


05. BluBlack Feat. Needy Nee “Gangsta Shit”
LOL, overloaded wit Blu? Funny…, but it pay$ off!! >>> Because they’re doin’ a duet together, I was thinkin’ they were gonna have sex on tha track wit tha content, lol. But, it’s a “gangsta” song, lol; nice hook wit this serious, “gangsta shit!” I definitely like tha Pezie song betta but you know this rolls, too! Blu has one of tha best, entertainin’-soundin’ voices and flow on tha track; just gotta luv how he comes through wit it!!! Yay, here’s Needy on tha 2nd verse; thumbs up ta tha “gangsta shit” she spittin’ on tha 2nd verse, doin’ tha damn thang fa tha South! My Rating: 4.6


06. Hannibal Feat. Young Sims “Hustling Till The Sunrise”
LOL, talk about a way ta scream wit excitement, lol! Once again, Hannibal’s got tha #6 slot on a CD (“Gone Jigg” bein’ #6 on “G-Lane Vol. 1”)! Usually, I hear short songs from Hannibal but this one’s 5:26 on tha length; should be pretty interestin’!! >>> Sounds like an interestin’ intro wit tha different producer-soundin’ beat… Sounds like Adlib in tha background? That’s tha only person I picture but I doubt it’s him… Good hook from Hannibal; doesn’t sound cheesy but it sounds great for tha hustlaz! Yes, Hannibal said, “buku;” definitely likin’ these rhymes!! Hannibal comin’ through mo-consistent than eva!! Sims says he’s, “H-U-S-T-L-I-N,” but tha title has a “G”? LOL, I think it should be “hustlin” on tha title name… He’s consistent on tha 2nd verse; good mix and good follow-up ta “Cocky”… or am I thinkin’ backwards? I think I’m thinkin’ forward… I’m feelin’ tha 3rd verse from Hannibal, too; we definitely ain’t drownin’! Hannibal comin’ through wit tha outro; sounds good wit “Sims on tha track” (thumbs up fa sayin’ who produced it ‘cause I was gonna think Casanova did it)! My Rating: 4.5


07. A.R., BluBlack & Classik “Kimbo Slice”
A.K.A. A+B+C. LOL, shorter length? Didn’t say much when I reviewed it but basically, it’s a song that sounds catchy that grows on you. LOL, dirtier version? Why was tha clean version dirty? I neva got that… Glad this iz a full dirty version, ya dig? LOL, no repeat of tha hook, this time. My Current Rating: 4.4


08. BluBlack & A.R. Feat. Level “Top Notch”
I think it should be BluBlack & A.R. featuring Level but I guess it’s listed by who comes through 1st, 2nd, you know. I wrote Level on Facebook yesterday and I said to him, “when you gon rap about Autism/Asperger’s?” He didn’t write back but I dare him ta trade his so-called “dick” for a lil’ bit of Autism/Asperger’s but unfortunately, it seems like that ain’t ‘cool’ fa him and tha hood; *yawn*… Don’t come runnin’ ta me if someone he knows winds up gettin’ it; 1 in 110 people get it, which in Baton Rouge, there are at least 110 fathers, I assume? Previously, here’s what I said: Definitely sounds like it, 100, regardless of who’s producin’! Sounds like a pretty catchy hook; thought it would be on Boosie’s level fa a second, lol. Of course, Level comin’ through wit tha cocky-type rhymes in tha 1st verse dat sound good, as always. LOL, Blu’s on tha 2nd verse, too, comin’ through wit good street/225-type shit. LOL, “how’d you get in? I jumped,” ROFL! Definitely an entertainin’ verse from Blu, once again!! Glad we’re on tha A – A+ level, here! I picture just Blu on this but you know others had ta be on dis! A.R.’s on tha 2nd verse and it sounds good; he knows how ta handle a beat, especially if his boy iz on tha beat (D. Jackson)! LOL, no room fa Classik, here; very Classikless fa a classic-soundin’ song, lol! My Current Rating: 4.7


09. Obeeze Feat. S.O.S. “Getting In My Zone”
Uh oh, looks like errors, lol. Anotha “ing” song? Plus, “Obese”? I didn’t know Obeeze was “obese,” lol? Looks funny but I know it’ll be tight fa a short song!! >>> Likin’ tha repetitiveness of tha title and tha way this beat sounds! LOL, Beyoncé needs “a barber!” I guess this fades tha haircut good ‘cause this iz some tight shit! LOL, shouldn’t it be Obeeze featuring S.O.S.? I know that error happened on tha last CD wit “U Don’t Want It Wit Me”. Anyway, pretty quick wit tha verse; feelin’ how he comin’ through on tha 1st verse, ya dig? Obeeze got shit on lock, although tha March 27, 2011 thought of tha “Go Hard N Da Paint (Remix)” video failed ta happen. I made a guess in ’09 in my head and always remembered tha date fa some reason, lol. S.O.S.’s on tha 2nd verse and you know this iz somethin’ serious; was this tha song that Hannibal played for me through tha phone months and months ago? Must be ‘cause they don’t have too many songs… My Rating: 4.7


10. Young True Feat. Lil’ Mike & Blu3 Da Truth “Panic Button”
What a title, hence, to go wit it, a guilty pleasure, smh. I guess this’ll be tha start for ‘em? >>> Sounds like a BluBlack beat but if Blu3 Da Truth’s on tha feature, it must be Blu3, then. Young True can pull off some of these typical, gay-soundin’ lyrics ‘cause he tight when he comes through wit it! I like tha gangsta shit he got goin’ on, here; maybe, I’ll hear somethin’ about tha oil spill from him? Good ta put your experiences in tha song! Tight hook; really likin’ tha voice from True, here, especially wit this title! Damn, “Give Me Everything” just came on; guess tha creepy luck’s followin’ me? LOL, Blu3 Da Truth on tha 2nd verse? Guess he’s 1st in tha ID; really feelin’ how he comin’ through on this shit but unfortunately, tha guilty pleasure prevents me from doin’ somethin’ wit this song unless I get paid for doin’ somethin’ wit it, such as uploadin’ it on YouTube (which only costs $10; very cheap)… Damn, this song was really short… My Rating: 4.5


½time: Kickin’ buku ass!!! Lots of surprises, here!! I thought it was gonna be mostly BluBlack but tha golden, undaground people come through as surprises!! Tha biggest thumbs up was Pezie but good looks on tha others appearin’, too!! A 4.6 for tha CD rating, currently!!!!!!


11. L.G. LOC “I Got It 4 Sale”
LOL, unknown people for tha 1st time? Then again, I think L.G. iz tha brother of Young Maniac? Oh wait, that’s K.G.; who’s this, then? Very excited for it, lol!! >>> Sounds good; very Three 6 Mafia-soundin’, here, wit not just tha sample but tha beat, too? Likin’ tha voice of tha 1st verse; sounds like a Memphis flow ‘cause of this track, but you know it’s fully “G-Lane,” here!! What?!? Tha dude on tha 2nd verse iz not DJ Paul of Three 6 Mafia? Neva mind, I think it iz… or iz it? Very confusin’ but whateva, it’s tight! Tha 2nd ½ sounds more G-Lane and it’s kick-ass at all times, too! Yea, this iz a jacked Three 6 song; I hear Juicy J on tha 3rd verse… LOL @ tha “semen on ya shoes,” rofl… My Rating: 4.3


12. Q-Red Feat. Mouse On Tha Track “Certified”
Unfortunately, I can’t review this ‘til I get acknowledged for somethin’ without me acknowledgin’; I compare this to my grandma not eatin’ food wit sugar! Lemme put this on, instead; makes me 100% betta: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-IhAhwDofs My Rating: N/A


13. Hannibal Feat. Reese & Young Ready “Still Strapped”
LOL, guess tha phone rung fa Ready, Hannibal? I’m tryna get ta Louisiana, not get my family afraid of it to where they can’t come wit me! I guess bein’ 20 years-old iz old enough but 22 or 23 ain’t? Oh, tha magic of 2008; gotta keep tha Nu$$ie-Alive times alive!! >>> Sounds good for a start wit this Hannibal-soundin’ beat and lol @ tha “got my hand on my gun” for tha start; Gangstabal? LOL… This iz somethin’ serious; I’m definitely likin’ what’s goin’ on, here! However, haven’t seen a “gun” since January 23, 2008, when I had one to me; hope that’ll be tha last day I see one! I hear Reese on tha 1st verse; definitely a gutta voice, here, fa tha streetz! Gonna keep this a secret from my grandma; we gotta think there’s no “guns” shown when we go ta Baton Rouge! If we see one, it could be all over for me and my travelin’, smh. Hannibal’s on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit some gangsta-soundin’ shit, here! Tha other song of him had tha catchy-soundin’ rhymes; this has tha gangsta-soundin’ rhymes, instead, which sounds great, regardless! LOL, Ready’s on tha 3rd verse; what an “insane” Ready flow, here!! LOL, keep it goin’, keep it goin’!! LOL @ tha Ready “flizzo” and “Quizno’s” rhyme; fuckin’ catchy-ass shit!! Also, thumbs up fa tha outro, 2011 style!! My Rating: 4.8


14. Yung Yola “I Give It All I Got”
I want my radio interview, first!! My Rating: N/A


15. BluBlack “Beat A Bitch Up”
Looks familiar but I know Blu’s all about these “bitches,” lol. >>> Sounds like a catchy song; more like a “bow” anthem, lol. Oh wait, I thought this was for tha ladies but it’s for tha pussy-asses, lol! Good shit comin’ from Blu on tha 1st verse; nothin’ but consistency and non-stop rhymes wit tha entertainment fa tha gangstaz! LOL, tha 2nd verse sounds good, too; crazy shit, here, that doesn’t stop!! My Rating: 4.6


16. Yung Yola & D.$.G. “Haterz, Haterz”
Already reviewed this… My Current Rating: 4.8


17. Yung Yola “It’s So Hard”
No… My Rating: N/A


18. Yung Yola Feat. Young True & D.$.G. “Stunted Out”
Marathon? LOL @ tha different titles… My Current Rating: 4.5


19. Young True Feat. A-One (Wissel) “Body N It”
LOL @ A-One listed as A-Wissel and this song finally appearin’ on a CD!! It was two years ago this week that True sent it to me. Interestin’ song; who would’ve thought people would know it and it would appear on a CD? Catchy shit from True on this mysteriously-produced track; nothin’ but a “body” and an “N,” lol! Good shit on tha 1st verse; “shiiiid who? Young True!!” Wissel sounds good on tha 2nd verse; sounds more crazy when he does all that skiddin’ wit tha car in tha rhymes, lol! LOL, True doesn’t give up; he always has energy!! Good shit comin’ through on tha 3rd verse, too, or should I say, tha bridge! My Current Rating: 4.4


20. BluBlack Feat. Hannibal & Reese “We Can’t Lose”
Not cocky enough to have “Cocky”, lol? I guess we’ll have to wait for tha CD to drop… or betta yet, Hannibal told me it was on tha upcoming “G-Lane Vol. 2”! But why does this only have 1:43 on tha length? How can everyone fit in it? >>> Intro’s here… Still tha good hook from Hannibal… “We” still have tha good BluBlack 1st verse… ROFL, just a sample? LOL… My Current Rating: 4.3


Overall: I thought this CD kicked buku ass!! No matter what year or mood I’m in, it seems dat G-Lane has tha magic ta offer in Baton Rouge; not even close to a disappointment, here!!! I believe dat if I reviewed tha songs I couldn’t review, this CD would’ve still turned out ta be five stars. But, until things are resolved, I’ll be glad ta add my two cents, since I gave my 999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999+ cents, already!
