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!!

“Lifetime (Intro)”
Production
from X-Fyle, here; let’s kick it off! >>> Your intro, here, sounds
like what I need to do: “Take a break … Get my head right!” You’re speakin’ my
mind!! “Felt like I wasn’t really important;” that’s exactly how I feel!! You see what I wrote before I started this
review! Thanx for makin’ me feel what
you’re sayin’!! Now, 1:00 in, time fa tha rappin’… Sounds good; feelin’ what
you goin’ through! Also, interestin’ beat from X-Fyle, includin’ tha hook and
“lifetime” sample! “Off dat loud pack;” nice way ta recover from stress on tha
2nd verse. Wit me, I swear, I could blow pounds of kush wit all this
depressin’ shit I’m dealin’ wit. However, because I don’t see any of it, I try
to deal wit myself! How has it been nine months since my previous kush
moment?!? WTF?! Been through a hell of a
lot since!! But, to cheer me up, Ya Boy Earl on tha outro! Like all of us,
we all gotta stay positive and not let things get in our way! My Rating: 4.4
02.
“Earthquake” Feat. Danarryl Von
Production
from Muggz, here; let’s hear it! >>> Nice beginning beat… Wit Earl in
tha intro, I’m not sure what I’m exactly enterin’, here, wit this song… I know
I’ve heard this singer on tha hook before (I recognize tha name)… Weird vocals,
and weird lyrics wit tha “tryna get tha cake like today’s my birthday” shit,
lol… Almost thought he said, “Like two days, it’s my birthday,” lol… That’s
why, I thought it was weird, at first. It ain’t that bad, this time around…
Here you are on tha 1st verse and now, tha beat’s startin’ ta go
from real unique to typical, mainstream-soundin’ shit… Okay 1st
verse from you wit what you spittin’… Here you are on tha 2nd verse,
comin’ through wit more okay rhymes; this iz a betta verse, and it’s always
good ta hear some feelin’-fucked-up lyrics… “Murda Millz;” where was he? My Rating: 3.8
03.
“Flex” Feat. Young Swagga
Wit
a title and featured artist name like this, I think I gon skip… You on tha
beat, here… >>> Yea, skip. My
Rating: 1.0
04.
“In Dis MF” Feat. Young Ready & Lil’ Pokey
Looks
anticipatin’, wit Hitman on tha beat! >>> Sounds like a perfect
recovery from tha previous song!! Nice beat sound, here, and Earl’s hypin’
thangz up wit tha intro!! Nice hook; definitely feelin’ tha “in dis MF” shit,
strictly hypin’ err-body up!! Here’s Ready on tha 1st verse, comin’
through wit a great collaboration… Feelin’ his energy ova this beat! Good shit
from you on tha 2nd verse, stayin’ consistent wit bein’ “in dis MF!”
Let’s hear this Pokey dude on tha 3rd verse… Why he sound like
Level??? That’s my only feedback for tha verse… Well, it was good, but still… My Rating: 4.5
05.
“I’m Gettin’ It”
All
on you, here! >>> Beat’s a lil’ mainstream-soundin’… Not really into
tha 1st ½ of tha hook wit tha “money,” but you made it sound betta
wit tha “gar” and “lean.” Your rhymes on tha 1st verse sound catchy,
here… Tha 2nd verse ain’t too bad, either; you’re stayin’
consistent, here… Now, wit a long beat outro, will Earl appear? … … …No? SMH. My Rating: 3.7
06.
“Still Dreamin’”
Mikey
Beatz beat; iz that an original, Louisiana
producer? Lemme hear to find out… >>> Long, quiet beat intro, here…;
wonder what we got goin’ on… Sounds nice and laidback; good rhymes you bringin’
to tha table on tha 1st verse, here… Tha hook sounds like you got a
bigger future ahead. I guess I’m
“still dreamin’,” by stayin’ busy wit makin’ video countdowns, but I wish
somethin’ would pop off fa me soon… Ooh, an Earl outro, here! I feel what he sayin’
about people bein’ “scared.” However, because I’m stuck, surrounded by family, they’re “scared,” and won’t let me live
on my own, etc., so it’s like, I’m resistin’ workin’ at, like, VH1 and shit
‘cause I live in no-future Pennsylvania, smh. But, great outro from Earl! No
fear wit tha LuckyDog! My Rating: 3.9
07.
“By Myself” Feat. X-Fyle
Not
exactly “by” yourself, as it’s a
collaboration, includin’ X-Fyle producin’ this for ya… >>> Was gonna
skip this wit those gay-soundin’ vocals on tha hook, but I’ll try to be
patient… Beat sounds like it’s on a semi-East Coast vibe; not bad… Here you are
on tha 1st verse, comin’ through wit some good, real rhymes… Hearin’
tha hook for a 2nd time, and it’s soundin’ a lil’ betta/catchier.
Still, I don’t see tha need to be insecure about a voice, X-Fyle!! Good job wit
tha 2nd verse, too; startin’ ta feel this a lil’ more… Ooh, and an
Earl outro! Gotta remember dem birthdayz, Earl! Check your e-mail!! My Rating: 3.6
08.
“The Ride” Feat. Brittany Tanner
You
producin’ this one; I think this gon be laidback… >>> LOL, I skipped
it before I even looked at tha ID! My
Rating: 1.0
09.
“What Ya Want”
Production
from Mouse On Tha Track, here. Did he change it to “Da” ‘cause I thought it was
“Tha”? I keep seein’ “Da” a lot… >>> Talk about recovery: Everytime,
somethin’ really wack comes on, Ya Boy Earl saves tha day wit an intro to tha
next song!! Nice intro ta get you in tha mood… Here you are on tha 1st
verse, comin’ through wit some nice shit, as well as this nice beat from Mouse…
Tha hook sounds catchy; sounds like you “got” everythang… Tha 2nd
verse sounds catchy, too… Wow, this seemed like a quick joint. My Rating: 4.0
½time: So far, this a nice CD
wit great production. However, two jointz really knocked tha average rating
down, due to a-tune. I’m an ‘80s baby, so I don’t fuck wit dat shit! Wit that
bein’ said, only a 3.3 for tha CD rating, currently. :(
10.
“Thuggin’” Feat. Max Minelli & X-Fyle
More
production from X-Fyle, here, and anotha collaboration! >>> Beat
sounds good… Max startin’ it off, here, wit a nice, consistent 1st
verse! Likin’ what he bringin’ to tha table, here! Also, he holdin’ tha hook
down… Sounds good, but it’s startin’ ta sound really mainstream wit tha “like
it ain’t nothin’” shit repeatin’… Now, it’s time fa you on tha 2nd
verse, AJ… Good shit, can’t complain… Hope X-Fyle doesn’t ruin it wit tha 3rd
verse, here… Almost didn’t expect rappin’… Sounds kinda like an easy life, mixed wit a Max Minelli flow…
Now, tha fastness sounded like Mystikal? Sounds like a banana split gone weird…
Mixture of many styles, good, mainstream, and weird: From tha fast rappin’, to
all tha references to people, and more… No Earl outro? My Rating: 4.1
11.
“Fuck Dat Hoe”
SMH
@ tha clean back cover… Yung Els did this track… >>> Okay, I’ll take
an Earl intro… “Goin’ ta tha strip
club;” let’s hear it! Ehh, this beat sounds very mainstream; no Louisiana sound at all! However, tha hook’s pretty catchy
wit fuckin’ these hoes! Not really
feelin’ tha lyrics on tha 1st verse, here; very wack… Too many
quotes, mainstream perspectives, and a mainstream-soundin’ delivery. Sounds
like I can only fuck wit tha hook, here… Let’s see how tha 2nd verse
gon do… Just as wack. What happened to usin’ jigg-related lyrics ta get tha hoes?
Guess that ain’t what’s up anymore? Kinda sucks ‘cause it’s not like I can just
pop up in Louisiana
like it’s nothin’… By tha time I get ta Louisiana,
there betta still be jiggin’! It
could be years from now!! Just waitin’ on a dude ta go wit me; that’s tha only thing stoppin’ me!! Also, it would
be cool ta bring rappin’ granny wit me so she can see how many real fans I
have… My Rating: 2.2
12.
“Fly As A MF”
Anotha
muthafuckin’ “muthafucka” song, lol…
Production from Q-Red; time ta mention how ugly I recently look! >>> As
always, due to no acknowledgement wit my awards (of 2010; that long ago???), I
refuse to comment on tha production until I get an acknowledgement and
possibly, an apology. As far as tha song, it sounds catchy wit tha “A …, or B
…; C …, or D…” shit; definitely
catchy! Tha 1st verse ain’t too bad, here; I feel what you sayin’,
as you’re comin’ through, feelin’ great. Tha 2nd verse sounds kinda
mainstream-like wit tha flow, at first, but it’s gettin’ back to soundin’
betta… My Rating: 4.2
13.
“Definition Of Swag” Feat. Lil’ Cali & Danarryl Von
If
I had to define it, I’d say that it’s
a girly, pre-teenage, faggy, outta style, weakened hip-hop,
makes-everyone-sound-tha-same, corny-kinda word/definition. You know tha term iz dead when there’s a
female kids commercial that goes, “I got swag, I got swag, baby!” Didn’t you
guys think that white dudes ruined black things, such as certain dances, hand
gestures, etc.? I dunno why none of y’all are catchin’ on to these diseased
terms! But anyway, you on tha beat; let’s hope I skip this one! >>> Glad
ta hear Earl on tha intro, here, but what about that commercial, Earl? Little
girls talkin’ ‘bout “swag!” Sounds a lil’ weird wit tha vocals on tha hook,
here, wit tha “uh huh.” I can’t really take this hook serious (usin’ “ma’fucka”
as a noun fa this, lol?), tryna go hard or somethin’… I grew up in New York… Tha 1st
verse sounds okay; not too bad, overall… Got Cali on tha 2nd verse, here… Of
course, gotta feel what he spittin’; there’s no wack zone when you’re fuckin’
wit Cali!
“Young nigga wit tha swag of a 30-year vet;” you’re almost there, Cali! August 30, 2014’ll
be tha day! Here’s tha 3rd verse… Of course, it’s Danarryl. Really
not feelin’ these vocals; why does it have ta be rapped? Also, Kevin Gates-sound wit tha dickridin’? Heard a fixated
note (e.g., “right now-oh”).
Pathetic lyrics, mainly; definitely ain’t fa me! I would’ve skipped this if tha
3rd verse was first! Was on an average/below-average level, at
first, until tha 3rd verse came… Have ta take some points off fa
dat! My Rating: 2.4
14.
“I Can Fly”
All
on you, again. >>> This was #15 on tha DatPiff tracklisting; hate when
tha #s are flipped… Nice beginning wit tha smokin’-related shit. Was that tha
hook in tha beginning? Sounds pretty plain for a kush-related topic like this…
Sounds like “I can” hear a betta character of yours on tha 1st
verse, here; not bad… Tha beat’s soundin’ cool—oh, I hear tha actual hook, now.
It’s still a lil’ plain, but not bad. I like dat line: “Take a shit on you
niggaz…” Everyone knows that I literally
“take” shits on those that disrespect
me, do bad business wit me, etc.! April 29, 2005 was tha first time I did dat…,
for someone’s birthday, no less…, before my Louisiana connection! Anyway, tha 2nd
verse sounds pretty good, too… Will Ya Boy Earl come through wit some diarrhea
fa these haterz on tha outro…? Fuck, no diarrhea! Felt like havin’ diarrhea in
your stomach ‘cause of no Earl on tha outro! :( My Rating: 4.0
15.
“Cut Buddy”
Keepin’ everything of yours continuing… >>> Nice beginning beat… “I just do me, like Rocko;” always gotta keep tha Nu$$ie-Alive, 2008 times active in quotes/memories! Not bad for tha 1st verse, overall… Tha hook sounds okay; once again, not bad, AJ! Tha 2nd verse sounds catchy wit these rhymes, too; who wouldn’t wanna have sex wit you, AJ? A 3rd verse, here… Not so bad; you gettin’ your freak on, like Missy… Now, wit 45 seconds left, hope there’s an Earl outr—well, you stole his thunder, this time! “I’m single; no kids, no wife;” what I am, and that’s how you focus on your career! My Rating: 3.7

My Rating: 3.7
16.
“Parking Lot Pimpin’” Feat. Young Swagga
Not
that name again…; you on tha beat. >>> Exactly what I expected for tha
start… Just for impatient fun, let’s see how long this’ll last wit me… Well, on
a Paul Wall/H-Town-soundin’ style wit this hook. I like tha beat, and tha vibe
you’re bringin’ to tha table, here… Here you are on tha 1st verse
and lol, you even said, “H-Town,” too… You got a nice, Paul Wall-like
delivery/voice, here, wit tha “doawnn” shit, lol. I just wish that featured
person would take tha dick outta his mouth, already, wit those vocals!!! Here
you are on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit more catchy shit… LOL,
Ya Boy Earl on tha outro! “Tha thick purple, not tha thin purple!” Nice and
obsessive-descriptive, Earl! Good thing I didn’t skip this ‘cause I wouldn’t’ve
heard tha outro… But yea, thumbs up fa tha extra-fucked up outro, Earl! But,
because of tha gay vocals, earlier, I have to heavily deduct my score… My Rating: 2.1
17.
“Put Ya Cups Up” Feat. Danarryl Von
Thought
this was a really old song…? Anyway, you’re on tha beat, once again.
>>> Yea, this iz tha same song. Danarryl Von = Murda Millz? Accordin’
to tha beginning, it sounds like it… My
Current Rating: 4.6
18.
“Fuck Sum”
Keepin’
it goin’ wit just you… >>> Anotha nice beat from you; interestin’
sounds! They catch on in a great way!
Sounds like a nice song ta get fucked
up, more than fuckin’ “sumthin’,”
lol. Tha 1st verse sounds nice, too; keep it goin’! Tha 2nd
verse sounds good, too… No Earl outro? I know there’s still 47 seconds left on
tha clock, but I’m impatient, lol! My
Rating: 4.3
19.
“Road To Riches” Feat. Young Swagga
Wit
a title about money, and tha Swagga dude on tha feature, I think I gon either
throw up or skip this one, to end it off… >>> Nice and laidback start…
Too bad tha featured artist has to talk about “money,” if it’s not a gay voice,
smh… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it sounds nice and
good/laidback. Also, tha volume’s a lot lower on this track? You should always
have all your volumes up! Just so you know, every
song I’ve downloaded/got since 2003 has had their volumes fixed! Anyway, onto tha 2nd verse… Sounds like it must
be this Swagga dude… He’s all ova tha place wit these rhymes, and tha rhymes
are pretty stale/garbage for me… I guess it’s me bein’ an ‘80s baby why I don’t
feel it too much? Here you are on tha outro, Earl! I like how he’s like,
“Sleep?” I say tha same thing! I called one producer up a few dayz ago, and
they were like, “I’m sleepin’, bruh;” really? Why “sleep”? I thought rappers
don’t sleep?! At least when someone calls me while I’m sleepin’, I pick up, be like, “What up,” like I was awake!
That’s anotha reason why I’m unique!
But yea, thumbs up fa hostin’ anotha
CD, Earl!! My Rating: 2.2
Overall: I enjoyed this CD, AJ. I
think you did a great job wit it, as well as some of tha collaborations, but
mainly, tha variety of production! There were a few garbage songs on here, but
that didn’t stop me from supportin’ what I had ta support! Also, wit Earl on
it, ya gotta give it props! Keep grindin’! I know I’ll try ta keep grindin’, but I hope I transcend into tha full-time
video world, soon!
