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.
DJ Ya Boy Earl Intro
Glad
to hear him again after tha Percy Keith CD… >>> Good to hear Earl, but
it’s quiet without a beat… My Rating:
N/A
02.
“Sippin’ 4 My Niggas”
I
don’t get this title; sounds like an obsession wit so-called ‘friends,’ which
in my whole life of living, I’ve neva understood how dudes can take other dudes
so serious. Meanwhile, they’re like, “Dudes always hatin’ on me,” in songs; I
don’t get it! >>> Beat sounds nice and ‘90s, here… A lot of consistent
rhymes, here; almost sounds a lil’ like Gates, here, wit tha delivery. Tha
hook’s catchy, but I still don’t understand it. I also don’t get when people
‘pour’ out for dead people, too… Nice rhymes in tha 2nd verse, too;
I like tha “we used to piss on tha same mattress… Wow, this breezed by; nice
and short! No filler at all! My Rating: 4.6
03.
“Bullet Proof”
People
still like playin’ wit guns? >>> More ‘90s vibes; good thinkin’ of tha
producer! Not bad wit tha 1st verse, here; sounds good, but how come
no one in Louisiana’s
a virgin? Hook’s a lil’ random wit tha “pussy” shit… Endin’ from Earl, here;
sounds like tha outro ran too long… Too many gaps in-between each message, but
it’s good ta hear him. How’d he know about/get cool wit you, Mista? My Rating: 4.0
04.
“Luv Head”
Random.
>>> This iz more mainstream from tha previous two jointz… Also, tha
delivery’s a lil’ on that boring, mainstream, Rick Ross-type… Can’t deny tha
hook, as it’s entertainin’. It was a decade ago ‘round New Year’s Eve where
because of Christina Aguilera & Lil’ Kim’s “Can’t Hold Us Down”, I asked my
dad what “head” was. Luv how tha hook iz so simple by repeatin’ tha title! And,
nice outro from Earl, real quick! He must’ve gotten “head” before sayin’ this outro ‘cause it sounds like he’s
in tha mood! Also, good length! Not too long; basically, you told what you had
ta tell in under three minutes! My
Rating: 4.7
05.
“Tear It Down” Feat. Lil’ Boosie
?
>>> Sounds consistent; good shit from Boosie on tha 1st
verse, here… Also, tha hook sounds nice; almost sounds familiar, too… Tha beat
sounds real nice durin’ tha hook; real Baton
Rouge sounds! Here you are on tha 2nd
verse, comin’ through wit good rhymes. I dunno about rappin’ about “stacks,”
though; everyone does that, and it’s where they become homosexual! Anotha
real-short song that’s length iz perfect! It’s all about givin’ people a nice,
quick taste! My Rating: 4.4
06.
“Lay Down”
>>>
An Earl intro; good voice fa this
intro… Also, Ashes CD? “May 14”? Goes
to show you it ain’t important for me if it’s two months later, and I still
don’t have it, smh? Talk about no one
makin’ me a priority in Louisiana!
Think it’s time for me to move on? Anyway, glad Earl still screams, “Chicken
& Watermellon!” Wow, tha song’s over already? Didn’t really leave any
feedback, but it sounds nice. Beat’s nice and whateva you spit sounds good fa
tha short length. My Rating: 4.3
07.
“Pussy & Mouf” Feat. Lil’ Phat & Ken On Da Track
Random,
again… >>> A Webbie/Bun B “Give Me That” (or Snoop Dogg/Pharrell/Uncle
Charlie Wilson “Beautiful”) sample in tha background… Beat sounds nice and
laidback, as well as tha five-minute length on tha track… We got Lil’ Phat on
tha 1st verse… Nothin’ special; just flows wit this okay topic wit
these random lyrics… Here you are on tha 2nd verse… A lil’ betta,
since you have more-descriptive lyrics than Phat’s typicalness… Must be Lil’
Ken on tha 3rd verse… Weak start wit tha “money,” but some of tha
sexual lyrics sound good, here. Guess he anotha dude that don’t have trouble
wit sex, either? Wit tha remaining length left, I assume there’s an outro from
Earl? Or, iz this Lil’ Ken on tha 4th verse? Can’t tell who was who;
this sounds more like him… If it iz, tha fast rhymes are good, though some of
tha lyrics are startin’ ta get boring toward tha end wit tha “Bandz A Make Her
Dance” quote… My Rating: 4.2
08.
“Retaliation”
What
about virginity? >>> I assume tha whole CD’s produced by Lil’ Ken, but
there’s an official beat tag here… I’m feelin’ tha ‘90s vibe in tha beat, once
again, as well as this ‘90s-soundin’ Louisiana
rap wit this male sample on tha hook! Nice rhymes on tha 1st verse,
here; can’t deny ‘em… Tha 2nd verse sounds like a mix of a lot of
shit, between “bitches” eating your
“cock,” mixed wit tha “cops”? Weird, but interestin’ mix ta rap about… My Rating: 4.3
½time: I have to go get (and/or
eat) my dinner, right now. It’s 5:17 PM, so I finna go make tha ½time of this
CD my intermission… But, so far, I’m likin’ what I’m hearin’. Seems like you’re
becomin’ more experimental wit your sound; I really like tha ‘90s vibes… Hope
they keep continuin’! Currently, you’re at a 4.4 for tha CD rating!!!!
09.
“Kiss My Hustlin’ Azz” Feat. Yung Pymp & Ray Vicks
I
had to put my dinner (a slice of pizza) in tha toaster oven, so 10 minutes from
now, I must get it. Anyway, three years ago, I had a great idea for you when I
was talkin’ to you about doin’ a commercial for you. However, you neva hit me
back wit any details, and tha idea has not been used. Did you forget about me?
We gotta be doin’ business soon, right? Can’t forget about those that were on
your shit from back in tha gap! >>> “I just do this shit fa fun;” not
really tha best perspective wit makin’ music. Like Sade says, you should only
make music when you have somethin’ ta say! I do… That’s why, I release, like, one song (and music video) a year, it
seems like! I hate all these
so-called underground rappers that claim they’re ‘busy’ by bein’ in tha studio
all day, all week, puttin’ out novelty shit. Anyway, what pure garbage this iz, OMG!! Beat’s an original producer (Young
Hustla?), and it’s got a mainstream, Rick Ross-like sound to it? I can’t stand this “stacks” shit; not tha shit I
wanna hear!! After gettin’ robbed two years ago from a BR artist, tha “stacks”
should be kept in tha vault and neva to be talked about!!! So, wit that bein’ said, you had a real bad 1st verse… First
time hearin’ Yung Pymp on tha 2nd verse…; ehh, why am I commentin’?
Ray on tha 3rd verse, here… I dunno about people still clutchin’ on their “40,” though…
Why do people luv ta get into drama
wit people? Doesn’t make sense at all,
but off this weak song, Ray had tha best verse, and it was ehh!! My Rating: 1.2
10.
“U Go Learn”
“Go”
or “Gon”? >>> Noooooooooo, why a jacked beat (old Jeezy)? I thought
you had producers? SMH, this iz what you waste your time on? Jacked-beat songs?
Random hook/title; a lil’ catchy, but it ain’t an original production! Why I
ain’t gettin’ a “shout out”? Do I have ta fuck a girl in front of your face?
Some things, I can’t do, at tha moment, such as get to Louisiana. Deal wit my patience!! My Rating: 3.2
11.
“Hard As I Go” Feat. Mouse On Tha Track
Tha Track, not Da…
>>> How’d all these collaborations happen? I thought you were just a
random rapper… Anyway, good sound wit tha beat, and Mouse sounds real catchy
wit this hook and tha title! See, “stackin’ dem endz” doesn’t sound so pathetic
when Mouse says it… I’m really feelin’ his verse, here; very catchy delivery
and voice, as always!! Here you are on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through
wit some rhymes… “You can suck my son dick;” “you” have a “son,” already? Wow,
talk about fast—a lil’ too fast? I know you’re younger than me, too! Honestly,
bein’ a dad lowers your consistency in tha rap game ‘cause you have ta focus on
bein’ a dad, if you’re a good dad! Anyway, why an unsourced dude on tha 3rd
verse? I feel bad for them that they not gettin’ proper credit… But, it’s an
okay verse; it ain’t bad, but not spectacular… Once again, nice beat from
Mouse! Now, lemme go get tha pizza, as it’s a lil’ over 10 minutes later! My Rating: 4.5
12.
“Where I Be” Feat. Level
Had
to eat tha slice of pizza, since I don’t type wit greesy hands; I ate it from
5:32 – 5:54 PM, so that was a long intermission… Anyway, random feature, again;
when he gon thank me for tha awards I sent him? Still, six months later and not
even a word… I even tried textin’,
too! Not to mention, he sucks at texting
(people still don’t know how ta text in 2013???) and makin’ people a priority!
See, tha thing wit me iz that, tha reason why a lot of people so-called
‘treasure’ me iz ‘cause I show luv to 1,000s of artists. I treat all artists
equal, unless they’ve had a problem wit me. So, I think Level needs to work on EQuality,
hence tha caps! >>> Switchin’ it up wit a G-Motivation beat, this
time… Why tha “tatted” start wit Level? Obsessed wit “bitch-ass niggaz,” or
whateva he said? Hook’s ehh; if Level’s “easy to find,” how come he don’t
answer my texts? No contradictin’ rhymes!! Even on tha 1st verse,
here… Lyrics are not for me at all, but tha vibe iz what saves this from bein’
garbage. Here you are on tha 2nd verse… It’s okay, also… “Smack you
wit this bottle of Moët;” why attack someone wit a bottle? More shit from Level
on tha 3rd verse… A lil’ catchy, but why does everything have ta be
“easy” and above-positive? When will people rap about sucking at things, such
as their struggles that aren’t
typical? Despite all tha criticism, I gave this a good rating. My Rating: 4.3
13.
“Thinking Of U” Feat. Keedy Black & Yung Pymp
Bounce
vibe? >>> Oh yes, it iz! Anotha good ear for your sound, and tha hook
sounds nice… Can neva deny bounce music! Here you are on tha 1st verse,
comin’ through wit okay rhymes… Too bad you threw “stacks” in this verse; why
does that have ta do wit anything? No need ta ruin it! Keedy comin’ through,
next, soundin’ good on this beat… Jumpin’ to Yung Pymp on tha 2nd
verse…; not bad, here… My Rating: 4.3
14.
“Purple In My Relo” Feat. Percy Keith & Young Troll
What’s
a “Relo”? >>> Not sure who’s tag was in tha beginning, but tha sound
sounds nice and southern… Tha hook sounds good, here; all about tha “diamonds.”
Here’s tha 1st verse from Percy Keith, and it sounds consistent.
Here you are on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit some drug-related
shit. “I gotta grind fa my people;” I still can’t connect how dudes care about
other dudes…, like, in their circle? I thought everyone hated each other? Here’s
this newbie (Young Troll) on tha 3rd verse, comin’ through wit
random shit… A lil’ bit of a ‘90s baby perspective wit also talkin’ about
“stacks,” but whateva… My Rating: 4.2
15.
“Mind Right” Feat. DJ B-Real & Young Ready
I
hope there’s no money-related rhymes
in here! I swear, I might choke up if I hear it in this collaboration! *Exhales
nervously 4x* >>> J.Scalez beat, here… A song about gunz… Sounds a
lil’ like Ray Vicks’ song wit Lil’ Phat “Nobody Move” wit tha “nobody move”
part… Anyway, hearin’ tha hook from B-Real, and tha SFX are nice!! “Blaow,
chicka-blaow, chicka-blaow!!” Whoa, Young Ready randomly came through on tha 1st
verse, here, comin’ through wit a nice, gangsta vibe, as well as a great attitude!! Glad he comin’ through
wit anger! Here you are on tha 2nd verse… Sounds good; did you
become a dad to be cool/fit in? Either way, you flowed through nicely on tha
track… I have to admit, I guess by bein’ nervous, it helped ‘cause finally, A
SONG WITHOUT ANY LYRICS HAVIN’ TO DO WIT MONEY!!!!!!!!!! Now, that’s
what I call a JACKPOT!!! Even no
hoe-related lyrics, too!! My Rating: 4.9
16.
“Mad At Cha”
Final
song… >>> Sounded like a good start ‘til tha Tupac quote/beat started
soundin’ like Tupac’s song of nearly tha same title (“I Ain’t Mad At Cha”). It “ain’t” bad… Speakin’ of “Gus,” I wish he
wouldn’t’ve hated on my R.I.P. “Wne” video; bad taste in my mouth! Since that,
I don’t do random tribute videos anymore, unless I get paid for it; my work cannot go disrespected! Then again, you
wonder why I interned at a news station, was a master, and have a legacy there…
Well, only one verse, wit a long outro, followed by a Ya Boy Earl outro… Sounds
more like a “Free” and “R.I.P.” dedication. Now, “R.I.P.” to Black Roy. :( My Rating: 3.9
Overall: Finally got ta review
this CD… Most of it was really good and really experimental! Only joint that
failed to capture my attention was #9. Wasn’t too into tha jacked beats, but
they weren’t horrible… Tha collaborations were pretty nice, and that B-Real one
toward tha end surprised me! It’s all about character when deliverin’
rhymes/emotions! Whether or not I’ll find/hear Ashes, here’s this review to carry on tha weight…
