Review #1,600: Level "Penetrate: The Sextape"

Reviewed on 11.30.2016 (Review #1,600)


Hittin’ my 1,600th review right nah! Hit my 1,500th review back on June 7th; not bad for my work schedule! Up now, we got Level Penetrate: The Sextape, released not too long ago but before tha Club Banga King 3 that he released, on Mayham Entertainment… Start Time: 3:07 PM | End Time: 4:03 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 sound like anything too mainstream for me, have auto-tune in your vocals, or talk about nothin’ but money and hoes (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

© 2016 CD Review (Review #1,600) reviewed on 11.30.2016 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. Intro
>>> Lady sounds hilarious, especially since I’m startin’ this review at my enemy’s birthday time. My enemy always makes stupid double entendre references at my job (“small ball guy was on;” “big ball guy was on;” “messy dude was on”)! My Rating: N/A


02. “Anywhere” feat. Sayyo Feek & Mystikal
>>> Remakin’ tha ‘90s 112 song, here, between tha beat and tha hook… Not bad; a good effort for a Rodnae/Beats How U Want ‘Em beat… You on tha 1st verse and it’s good; not much ta say… And, gotta luv how Mystikal comes through wit his energy! He, like, tha prerequisite version of you, Lev! My Rating: 3.7


03. “Sexy Lady” feat. Virdure
>>> Koon doin’ tha beat… Hearin’ and seein’ tha title, I’m thinkin’, iz this CD gon be, like, a ‘90s remake set? Reminds me of Tyrese or somethin’ on tha hook, here…; ehh… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it decent… You holdin’ this vibe down but this vibe ain’t tha greatest, in my opinion… And, tha 2nd verse okay but why tha long outro? My Rating: 3.3


04. “Headboard” feat. Pokey
>>> Beat Flippa beat, this time… Outta tha three R&Bish beats, this sounds like it tha best one… A good vibe on tha hook, here; let’s see how this go… You on tha 1st verse, holdin’ it down like a boss… And, tha 2nd verse sounds catchy wit how you come through “from tha front” and how you come through “from tha back.” My Rating: 3.8


05. “Slow & Steady”
>>> Not too crazy about this whole “slow” vibe… Some of it’s aight, but I ain’t gon go crazy ova it… Decent 1st verse from you but boring, mainstream-soundin’ beat… Tha 2nd verse soundin’ like you givin’ out “dick” for free or somethin’, here… My Rating: 3.4


06. “Pussy On You” feat. Lady Kym
>>> Kinda silly and kinda ehh on tha sound, here, between tha hook and calm beat… Tha 1st verse’s pretty nice, here, from you, just layin’ bidness down… Kym layin’ down some bidness fa you on tha 2nd verse, here, as well… And, you got a 3rd verse, here, Lev, holdin’ it down… My Rating: 3.5


07. “U Kno What I Like” feat. Rob Taylor
>>> Q-Red beat… Beat ain’t too bad fa a laidback, slow vibe, as well as tha hook… You ain’t bad on this track but that singer makes shit boring, at times… I understand you’re tryna set tha consistent vibe with these R&B/rap tracks, but I’m just lettin’ you know that I’m not crazy about these kinda tracks… My Rating: 3.3


½time: Not really my kinda shit, overall, but it happens… Nothin’s wack, but nothin’s hot; all are decent… A 3.5-rated CD with tha highest rating only bein’ a 3.8!!


08. “Ackin’ Like U Scared” feat. Virdure
>>> I hate how all these slow jamz be havin’ beat tags! It’s like, what are they tryna prove? No tightness, whatsoeva!! Still, this decent with tha hook and how you comin’ through wit it… My Rating: 3.4


09. “Put One In Ya” feat. Tucka
>>> Q-Red beat, with a baby cryin’ in tha beginning… Decent hook; nice lil’ slow beat… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and, as always, you layin’ it down… And, Tucka on tha 2nd verse… Ehh @ tha rappin’… They should just stick to singin’ ‘cause their rappin’ don’t spark me, in any way… It’s just filler material… My Rating: 3.6


10. “Say My Name” feat. Cupid
>>> Mouse doin’ a beat, here; let’s see how he does… I’m definitely feelin’ tha beat intro fa a slow track, so let’s see if it can pull through… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s aight; Cupid’s Cupid… Cupid on tha 1st verse ain’t too bad, here; nothin’ wack but nothin’ special… Mouse makes me like Cupid a lil’ more wit this one… Here you are on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit some okay shit… My Rating: 3.7


11. “Higher” feat. Detroit & Latangela Fay
>>> Beat’s ehh… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s ehh, too… Fuck tha rest of this; nothin’ special… My Rating: 2.5


12. “Early In Da Morning” feat. Tyree Neal
>>> Sounds like a pop/R&B vibe in tha beat, here… Hook’s whateva; you ain’t bad, here… I’ono, but tha singer features shouldn’t have verses; it just drags… My Rating: 2.6


13. “Me & You”
>>> Q-Red… Way too much like an unoriginal R&B vibe, here… Okay rhymes from you, here, but this whole entire CD’s vibe’s borin’ me… My Rating: 2.4


14. “How You Want It”
>>> Anotha one from Mr. Red… Again, on tha boring tip; bad voice effects on tha 1st verse, this time! That’s where tha wack vibes come in! My Rating: 1.7


15. “Sex Me”
>>> Endin’ it with a G-Motivation beat… Hook ain’t too bad with tha female singin’, as well as your rappin’… I don’t have anything else ta say; just waitin’ for this to end… My Rating: 2.8


Overall: I love how I started tha review at my enemy’s birthday time and there wasn’t ONE 4.0 or higher rating! With that bein’ said, this for tha R&B heads, not for me…
