Review #1,641: X-Mob "Paper Chasing"

Reviewed on 2.09.2017 (Review #1,641)


X-Mob Paper Chasing’s my next review, outta Lake Charles, released in 1997 on Par-Le Records! Start Time: 3:07 PM | End Time: 4:04 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!

06. “Good Times” feat. Pimp C
I will give this a good review/rating, but I cannot tolerate this song, anymore, as of October 15, 2011!! I’m a lil’ better about it, now ‘cause of how stressful my job/life has been, lately, but listen: On October 15, 2011, I was with an artist from Baton Rouge, LA, that flew up to see me in PA. I played this on my radio show and that ‘artist’ (person, whateva you wanna call ‘em) threw $2,000 at me while I was filmin’ footage for my radio show’s episode. Right after that, dude robbed me outta $555 and it’s like, who in tha fuck wanna hear this?!? >>> Dope beat from Pimp; dope verses; vibin’, great-southern hook… My Rating: 4.3


07. “To Da Ballers” feat. E.B.W.D. & Mike G
Mannie Fresh doin’ tha beat! >>> Sounds like a catchy lil’ tune wit tha hook, here; decent beat for Mannie, tho… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ pretty nice, here… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here, keepin’ it movin’, slowly… Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and it’s soundin’ pretty nice ta make this continue… And, a 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse, here, a lil’ more southern… Hmm…, I’m likin’ tha hook a lil’ betta, now, wit how tha beat sounds, in tha background… It’s like, hey, if “Good Times” can be a 4.3, why can’t this be, right?! My Rating: 4.3


½time: A consistent, dope lil’ southern CD fa tha south, here, as it’s a 4.3-rated CD!! Definitely gotta keep it movin’!!


08. “Changing Faces”
Joseph “Governor” Flowers on tha beat! >>> Sounds like an interestin’ beat, here; definitely feelin’ tha vibe! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s pretty nice; great job!! Hearin’ tha hook and it gives me a weird, but excellent vibe that tha times are “changing!” Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it sounds like a nice lil’ “Par-Le” party, here…! And, here’s tha 3rd verse, here, keepin’ it movin’ in a nice way! My Rating: 4.4


09. “I-10”
Mannie Fresh track! >>> No intro needed! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s pretty nice, here! Definitely feelin’ tha Mob’s perspective of tha south, here! Mannie did a nice job wit this beat, this time! Tha previous Mannie beat was decent, but this pure!! Hearin’ tha hook and it’s a pretty dope hook about “cocaine;” definitely dope, lol! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse, here, and it’s pretty nice, as well… Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and it’s pretty nice, as this continues ta keep tha consistency up! My Rating: 4.4

11. “Is U A G”
D-Wiz & T-Rex beat… >>> Anotha one wit no intro needed; definitely dope! Hearin’ tha hook and it’s a boss’ life, here! Feelin’ tha anthemic hook! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ nice wit this beat! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ pretty nice, as well… Tha 3rd verse iz soundin’ nice, here, as tha “Girbauds” are holdin’ it down, here! My Rating: 4.2


12. “Stunt’n Like A Goodgirl” feat. Nelson
Mannie Fresh doin’ this beat, as well! >>> Interestin’ thumpin’ in tha beginning, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it sounds catchy wit this male voice, on tha hook… Decent beat from Fresh, here; let’s see how tha verses go… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and y’all layin’ it down, here, as far as how these girlz go slutty!!
