Review #1,607: Jay Da Menace "I Took Yo Beat"

Reviewed on 12.26.2016 (Review #1,607)

Not really in a mood, right now, but lemme get some of this shit outta my way… Jay Da Menace I Took Yo Beat review, released on H.I.T.Z. Media Services & XLProductions. It looks like this gon be a jacked-beat CD, so let’s hope this goes fast… Start Time: 8:40 AM | End Time: 9:17 AM

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!

01. “No-Problem”

>>> Really not feelin’ tha voice in tha beginning; I don’t think this gon go over well… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s more of a normal voice… Decent rhymes, here, showin’ off… Hearin’ that hook and that’s where it’s a turn-off with tha voice… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s decent; really-quick verses, here… My Rating: 1.8

02. “Broccolli”

>>> Decent wit how you come through wit “dat gas” and how it’s “potent.” My Rating: 3.0

03. “Can’t Get Enuff”

>>> Glad you an “O.G.” and that you “smoke weed;” good rhymes ova this beat… You even mentioned “edibles;” dope shit… My Rating: 3.4

04. “Star_Boy”
>>> Decent, even tho I think tha original version’s so overrated… I feel like that’s what happens with these Daft Punk collaborations… Even tha original version fadin’ at tha end? Gay… My Rating: 2.3

05. “Dat Girl (Black Beatles)” feat. Jay Jones

>>> I have no interest in this; next! My Rating: 1.5

06. “Sorryyy”

>>> I don’t fuck wit this kinda sorrow shit but I’m likin’ tha beat you chose to rap on… Either way, this below-average fa me; too quiet on tha vocals? My Rating: 1.7

07. “Wat U Mean”
>>> Just sounds like randomness to me; what’s with tha original versions at tha end? My Rating: 1.9

08. “Come & C-Me”

>>> Why all tha “March 2017” shit in tha beginning? C’mon now! What tags gon be next? “I’m masturbatin’ on tha beat!” Smh! No interest in this quiet Drake shit! My Rating: 1.2

09. “Cut Itt” feat. Militia Ko

>>> Pathetic with tha original version on tha hook! Whateva @ this… My Rating: 1.4

10. “_Exchange”

>>> Decent rappin’, here, tho this beat boring to rap on… My Rating: 1.6

½time: A 2.0-rated CD, so far; I think I’m wastin’ my precious time, here…

11. “Low Life”

>>> Fade-in intro? How gay! Not bad wit tha rhymes, here… My Rating: 2.8

12. “Worldwide Choppas”

>>> Sounds like consistent rappin’ ova a decent beat; I accept it… My Rating: 2.9

13. “Be Comfortable” feat. Chyna
>>> About ½ of this iz tha original version’s hook; just a regular-soundin’ jacked-beat remake… My Rating: 2.0

14. “Da Other Side”
>>> What’s with this Travi$ Scott shit? Why would I even have interest in this? Decent wit your rappin’, but I lost all interest, due to tha beginning… My Rating: 1.3

15. “Hello”
>>> Pathetic with Adele, here… I should just skip each song that has that “March 2017” shit in tha beginning… Adele sounds off-beat, here… You sound decent but this on tha boring side fa me… My Rating: 1.1

16. “Sorry Not Sorry”

Anotha “Sorry” joint?! >>> Nothin’ ta say, here… My Rating: 2.2

17. “Get Away”
>>> I love how this whole entire CD has 2015/2016 beats and then, a 2001/2002 one comes along (Mobb Deep); nice surprise… Either way, nothin’ much ta say wit how you sound quiet on these vocals… My Rating: 2.4

18. “All Eyes On You”
>>> Pathetic wit this, too! No comment… My Rating: 1.0

19. “I Promise” feat. Meana

>>> Why a Wap in tha beginning? Wasp, instead?!? Just quiet rappin’ with no comment from me, here… Meana = Mista Meana? I don’t wanna guess like that, since this a jacked-beat CD, but that’s just a random thought… My Rating: 1.2

20. “I’m Curious”

>>> Uh oh! 2:50 on tha length! Why we gettin’ longer, outta nowhere? No need to! Glad these are short and are goin’ quick… This ain’t as bad as tha previous tracks but there’s no interest fa me wit how you comin’ through, here, on this beat… My Rating: 1.1

21. “What They Want” feat. Konsep
>>> WTF @ my enemy’s birthday on tha length (3:07); that long?! And, a DMX beat?! Weird mix!! Interestin’ story; crazy shit goin’ on in tha world… My Rating: 2.5

Overall: Thought it would’ve been more serious and more tight ova these beats but it was just quiet shit, random shit & boring shit…
