After
a nice #MTVJams00s marathon all weekend of tha music I grew up with from 2000 –
2009, it distracted me from payin’ attention to anything. Now that it’s sadly
over, I’m back wit tha reviewz: IL Duce Do U Kno IL Duce iz what I’m kickin’
today off with; let’s see how it goes! Start
Time: 3:55 PM | End Time: 4:28 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! After I
was robbed by an artist who claimed they “get money,” hearin’ about how much
you “got money” and anything “money” really bothers me. If you have not done
business wit me before, I won’t tolerate “money” talk in tha music!!

01.
“Intro”
Mod
beat. Looks like there gon be some rappin’ in this intro… >>> Jumped
right in afta a quiet beat intro… I like tha “fuck tha game up like I was
Kardashian” line, lol… And, “I suck-cess” was interestin’… Tha 2nd
verse iz pretty nice, too! My Rating: 4.7
02.
“Everywhere I Go (Like Ooohh)”
Paperboy beat (Twitter: @PaperboyGMBW). >>> You havin’ an orgasm in tha beginning? Not lookin’ forward… Not all tha way a-tune on tha hook, but tha hook has trashy lyrics!! This iz lyrical? No “stacks” shit and “downloadin’ my song” fa me, as well as these F-rated lyrics!! Okay, it picks up wit your 1st verse, but because my reviewz are like school assignments, every part of tha song has a grade! Tha 2nd verse iz also pretty consistent… If tha verses turned out shitty, I prolly would’ve rated this a 1.0. But, because you did a good job, tha rating’s pretty nice!!! My Rating: 2.5

“Howell Park”
B-Bangerz beat; same as Max Minelli “Angel Sing”, it looks like… >>> A long start wit screwed vocals… Now, a regular voice: Sounds good, especially it bein’ “tha first day of Summer.” That, actually, iz my birthday. Though it passed recently, it’s been a shitty “Summer,” so far; nothin’s happenin’, and gettin’ somewhat of a break wit goin’ on a trip has been fucked up. It’s like, what else could go wrong? 1:41, and tha 1st verse iz finally here… Sounds good… 3:47 on tha length, and only one verse? That’s different… My Rating: 3.9

“Facial” Feat. CRIM!
Same
producer, once again… >>> Beat’s on a typical, boring,
mainstream-like, trap music (not tha genre, tha rap music) style… Sounds okay
wit you on tha 1st verse… All tha “Free Boosie” gets repetitive when
it comes ta others sayin’ it. It’s not like they’re payin’ for his jail
services… Hearin’ this new CRIM! dude on tha 2nd verse… Okay for a
newbie, but damn, does any rapper, especially new ones, not get “hoes”? Shit
gets boring after 1,000,000x… My Rating:
3.5
05.
“Bizness” Feat. Max Minelli
Mod
on tha beat, here… >>> Sounds like a real nice beat start, and tha
hook’s pretty to-tha-point… You’re on tha 1st verse, and it sounds
good. An okay verse from Max; a lil’ boring with these lyrics… My Rating: 4.0
06.
“Breathtaking” Feat. Matt G
B-Bangerz beat. >>> An okay beat and hook. Soon as I heard tha a-tune in tha ‘new’ dude’s voice on tha 1st verse, I sadly assumed he likes suckin’ dick ‘cause of that shit, smh! When will people think straight? Good lyrics from you on tha 1st verse, but this’ll neva capture me ‘cause of tha a-tune…, in 2013, still? That’s so 2007 (maybe, 2008, too)! MySpace dayz!! You still on MySpace? Good lyrics in tha 2nd verse—short 2nd verse, though I’m startin’ ta dislike random fastness in tha deliveries… Gettin’ “hoes” iz easy again? I guess that’s how newbies have ta come wit it to gain attention? Don’t get it! My Rating: 3.1

“She’s A Rider” Feat. Mod Productions
Mod beat. >>> This iz off to an okay start, too… Hearin’ tha hook for tha 2nd time, and it’s not for me at all. Why everyone gotta get boring “stacks” and announce it in music? It’s almost like they’re announcin’ that they’re good at bein’ gay, smh… My Rating: 3.2

½time: A decent start, so far.
Some shit sounds a lil’ mainstream wit tha content, so far… 3.6
for tha CD rating, currently.
08.
“Ya Look Good” Feat. CRIM!
Mod
beat, again. >>> Catchy song fa tha hoes, this time, wit this vibe… Lyrics
from you on tha 1st verse are ehh, but tha vibe’s here… Here we go
wit tha new artist on tha 2nd verse… Everyone’s sex drive goes duffy
at 12 or somethin’? Either way, this wasn’t too bad for a song… My Rating: 3.8
09.
“Vocabulary”
Repeat
songs? My Current Rating: 4.7
10.
“Momma Prayed”
Mod
doin’ tha beat, once again. >>> Not really my kinda style wit this
topic, but it sounds nice wit tha beat and how you come through wit it… It’s
bad enough I’m tryna do good business wit someone, and their “momma” comes up
in tha conversation often, hence tha last time I talked to them. Was tryna get
them to see me, and their brother, in tha passenger seat, was like, “Gimme tha
phone, I wanna call mommy.” Like, wtf? No offense to moms—especially since I
live with mine and always talk to mine, but I can’t take no dudes serious,
after age 12, that bring up their “momma” often. I say that ‘cause I’ve always
was picked on for bein’ close to my “momma,” so to see others talk about their mom in their 20s/30s, etc., like,
really? Anyway, back to tha song… Why’d it get quieter durin’ tha 1st
verse? Tha verses are still good, though. My
Rating: 3.7
11.
“Put It Down” Feat. Keith Jacobs
I
easily remember tha titles… My Current
Rating: 4.3
12.
“Room 326” Feat. S. McKnight
S.
McKnight on tha feature; why was tha LiveMixtapes uploader anti-S. McKnight? My Current Rating: 4.1
13.
“Neva Goin’ Back” Feat. Dee-1
Wow
@ tha oldness… People could’ve lost their virginity by now! My Current Rating: 3.3
14.
“Stardom”
Endin’
wit an EQ beat. >>> Good, but I don’t get tha “deal;” I don’t get why
it’s worth somethin’. All it does iz make Kevin Gates more evasive wit gettin’
in touch wit me to do business, which does nothin’
for me payin’ my loans! Good and consistent rhymes in this one and only verse…
Why’d it almost fade out toward tha 2:00 mark? Anyway, no filler here! My Rating: 4.5
Overall: Prolly could’ve
subtracted tha newbies… Also, tha old songs are in tha past. Anything before
December 14, 2011—death of my cousin and 27 dayz after I got robbed by a BR
artist—should neva resurface! Some of
this was decent, but you still have tha potential as a lyricist, so that’s
good.
