Review #1,246: Young Sleep & Chico "Campus Takeover (Hosted by DJ 5150 & DJ Dow Jones)"

Reviewed on 1.30.2013 (Review #1,246)


Bayou Entertainment & Yz’Gyz Entertainment presents this Young Sleep & Chico CD called Campus Takeover (Hosted by DJ 5150 & DJ Dow Jones); let’s see how it turns out… Start Time: 5:18 PM | End Time: 5:40 PM


Disclaimer: 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. If you use tha word “swag” frequently, have auto-tune in your vocals, or talk about nothin’ but money and hoes 100,000x (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

01. Hater Fan Skit
>>> Can’t put any faces together, but sounds like regular communication that I can’t master, or even get close to mastering. My Rating: N/A


02. “Ellow” Feat. Q-Red On The Track
Chico solo, produced by Q-Red On The Track; can’t wait to quit tha music-promoting business soon!! >>> WTF? No comment! My Rating: 1.0


03. “Antidote” Feat. Lil’ Boosie
Young Sleep solo; very old…, and how do I feel about this now? My Current Rating: 4.5


04. “G4 Swag” Feat. Level
Chico solo; hate tha title! >>> This kinda music iz what’s ruinin’ tha rap industry; sounds like a teenager, smh! If this was about a different topic, this would sound better. Not even Level impresses me, here; change tha subject!! My Rating: 1.1


05. “Magic” Feat. Lil’ Cali
Young Sleep solo; looks familiar, but lookin’ forward to hear it… >>> Tha beat reminds me of swag music, so I’m not really anticipatin’ it… Ehh, not really for me, but it ain’t as bad as tha previous songs. Lil’ Cali sounds okay, too; wanna hear somethin’ betta than this teenager music! My Rating: 2.6


06. “Everybody Drunk”
Chico solo; Savage doin’ tha beat. >>> Savage doin’ a nice job wit this beat, as always. Gonna have to get used to Chico; should just stick wit this “pills”-type rappin’ than tha swag, a-tune, and that money bullshit. My Rating: 3.5


07. “I Got Money”
Young Sleep solo; hope I skip a song wit this title! >>> Only spent 20 seconds skimmin’ thru this! My Rating: 1.4


08. Class In Session Skit
>>> Okay start, but it would be funnier without tha sex shit. Also, sounds like Delwin The Krazyman callin’ me 16 names on Twitter, smh! My Rating: N/A


09. “Jiggin’ Like Charlie” Feat. Hitman & J Blacc
>>> Thought this was gonna be betta…; tha hook’s a lil’ catchy, but still a lil’ wack. Why iz tha producer not listed, whoeva it iz…? Why does tha 2nd verse sound exactly like Level? Talk about dickridin’; anotha reason why I don’t understand this music business! No one knows about what I do; I know tha weatherman up here in PA—I’m cool wit him! Why no mentions fa dat? My Rating: 2.0


½time: Pretty bad start, so far; guess tha singles are tha only things that got me anticipated ‘cause I’m not into this wack-soundin’ music. It’s not even southern music; it’s mainstream music brought to Louisiana! SMH, I want Louisiana music and I only want Louisiana music!! A 2.3-rated CD, currently.


10. “Step & Do My Dance”
Chico solo; hope I skip this one, too! >>> Yea, not for me; I’m not dancin’! My Rating: 1.5


11. “Feeling My Swag”
Young Sleep solo; wtf’s up wit tha gay titles?! >>> Beginning beat’s softer than a ma’fukka; this iz mixtape material? *Jaws drop* My Rating: 1.0


12. “Out My Body” Feat. Level
Chico solo; Savage doin’ tha beat & Level on tha feature looks anticipatin’… >>> Of course, it sounds better ‘cause it’s a Savage beat; it’s still a lil’ weak for me (mainly during tha 1st verse), but tha hook ain’t too bad… Level sounds betta on this song than tha previous feature; thumbs up fa him, but I WANT HIM TO HIT ME UP ABOUT RECEIVING MY AWARDS!! They’ve been in tha mail for 8 dayz now; he should’ve gotten ‘em by now!! This’ll prolly be tha best new song I’m hearin’ off this CD, but its rating ain’t like a top-rated song should be. My Rating: 4.2


13. Greek Show Skit
Alexia? >>> Random; better be puttin’ tha listener in a good mood! My Rating: N/A


14. “Got Dam” Feat. Savage
Both y’all on tha track wit Savage producin’ and featuring? Wow, I hope it turns out ta be real good! >>> Tha beginning beat sounds real nice; hope it doesn’t disappoint! Now, just by hearin’ Savage on tha hook, it sounds like a pure joint that I’d really like; nice job, Savage! I can see “ass” bein’ shook fa this joint, here! Now, let’s hope Sleep & Chico don’t ruin this on tha verses… Okay, Chico on tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ listenable; he even said, “right thurr!” Nice throwback; hard ta believe that song’s 10 years old, now! Ooh, bonus: A verse from Savage and it’s soundin’ hot, as always! Savage and his club bangaz: They’re timeless; sounds great, no matter what day or time it iz! Now, tha 3rd verse…; Chico again? Thought it was gonna be Young Sleep; didn’t recognize him on tha track, but it’s still nice! Now, I think this iz tha best song I haven’t heard on this CD! My Rating: 4.5


15. “Adidas Crazy” Feat. Lil’ Boosie
No artist listed, but Big Wayne on tha beat. Izn’t it kinda gay to list that he’s with “Bad Azz Ent.”? What you gon say about me? You gon say I host a fuckin’ radio show, smfh? Do you even know what day it iz, smh? >>> SMH, what’s this Boosie in tha beginning? Turn-off; would’ve liked to know about it as a warning on tha feature ‘cause I wanna know what I’m listenin’ to! Well, this iz Young Sleep’s song; not bad, includin’ a verse from Boosie, and tha Big Wayne beat sounds nice wit tha bounce sounds, mixed wit a nice Louisiana feel. My Rating: 3.7


16. “Boogie Board”
Chico solo. >>> Beat sounds nice to rap on; this iz okay for a party song. Now, I can agree wit this bein’ a part of a Campus Takeover. Now, I’m hearin’ tha title and it’s a dance song. Overall, not really for me, but it caught my attention while I wasn’t aware. My Rating: 3.4


17. The Dorm Room Skit
I remember hangin’ in tha “dorm room;” had a college flashback last night… >>> Sounds like Young Sleep; not sure how to catch females’ attention like dat, but whateva. My Rating: N/A


18. “Rubbing & Touching” Feat. Jacy Carpenter
Young Sleep solo. >>> Why that hook? Sounds like an inserted song… Okay, I guess it’s really tha featured artist singing. Either way, this sounds nearly jacked wit tha beat and it’s ehh for a laidback song. My Rating: 2.5


19. “X ‘Em Out”
Chico solo, produced by J Buc. Endin’ wit an oldie I played on my radio show back in 2010. It took this song to make me find this CD. I dunno what made me search for an album for this song, but I got lucky. My Current Rating: 4.5


Overall: Well, this CD definitely didn’t go tha way I expected it to go. I first heard “Antidote” and it was real nice to hear. I then heard “X ‘Em Out” and that made me like Chico for a Yz’Gyz Ent. artist. But, after hearin’ a lot of tha jointz on here, I’m thinkin’, what were y’all (mainly Chico) thinkin’? Then again, I guess me bein’ 24 iz too old ‘cause I grew up listenin’ to actual rap music; actual southern club bangaz. Seems like everything money, bitches, swag, and a-tune’s still takin’ ova; I just call it faggy, smh!
