Review #1,644: Baddfellaz "Dead Presidents"

Reviewed on 2.10.2017 (Review #1,644)


I ain’t really have tha review power I had, tha past few dayz… Just been dealin’ with a lotta anxiety at work & always gettin’ ignored by Louisiana artists, at tha moment… It’s really gettin’ to me and I’m gettin’ really upset about it, deep down inside! :( But, lemme at least get anotha review in… Here goes my review for Baddfellaz, outta New Orleans, Dead Presidents, released in 1998 on Righteous Records! Start Time: 4:28 PM | End Time: 5:33 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!

01. Welcome To N.O.
Produced by EJ & Plyreem, here! >>> Nice lil’ intro, here; pretty intense wit tha “police” shit… My Rating: N/A


02. “Ourtown” feat. 384’s, Drama Squad & Lil’ Slim
Looks like a dope collab, produced by Don Juan, here! >>> Sounds pretty nice… It sounds like a nice, more-undaground version of No Limit, here? Definitely dope! Excited ta hear this! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s pretty dope, between tha voice & rhymes, here! Hearin’ tha hook and it’s pretty dope! Sounds like a simple, typical hook about “where you from,” but it ain’t a bad thang! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s soundin’ nice ta hear…! Tha 3rd verse iz soundin’ like an undaground boss’ verse, here, holdin’ shit down fa tha streetz down! “Girbaud crease…;” dope shit! My Rating: 4.5


03. “Mo Cash”
Plyreem on tha beat! >>> Wouldn’t fuck wit this shit if it was recent shit… I’m not a fan of “cash” rhymes/songs, but this a decent lil’ hook/beat… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds like good, consistent rhymes fa this “cash” topic… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and here, it’s all about tha “dirty money;” keep it movin’… Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and it’s pretty good, as well… My Rating: 3.8


04. “Attitudes” feat. Dyseptive
Don Juan doin’ tha track! >>> Decent beat, here…; hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s nice… A 2nd ½ of tha 1st verse, here, and it’s good, as well… Tha voice sounds betta on tha 2nd ½ of tha 1st verse, so I’m fuckin’ wit it more… And, a 3rd part of tha 1st verse? Decent, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s nice wit this whole attitude of tha “middle finger;” dope shit! Oh, all verses in one? I’ono, I might’ve confused tha order of err-thang, here… My Rating: 4.2


05. “Baddfellarette”
Plyreem beat; nice title! >>> Beat’s smooth fa tha ’98, here, with a West Coast twist… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s decent… Tha hook sounds like a decent hook, here, holdin’ down tha laidback flow… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s soundin’ decent, as well; a lil’ more southern voice, this time… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 3rd verse, here, soundin’ okay… Endin’ it with a female, here, soundin’ decent…  My Rating: 3.9


06. “Die Young”
Plyreem on tha beat, here… >>> Sounds like a nice lil’ beat that’s darker… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and tha rhymes sound a lil’ like preachin’ vs. street, here; good shit… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s nice with this screwed sound! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s soundin’ good, here… Keepin’ it movin’ with tha 3rd verse and it’s soundin’ nice… My Rating: 4.3


07. “Downtown Blowout” feat. Cheeky Blakk
Should be interestin’ wit Mannie Fresh on tha beat, here! >>> A lil’ more jammin’, here, as tha 1st verse’s soundin’ pretty nice on this beat! More of tha 1st verse, here, as we have a 2nd ½ of tha 1st verse, soundin’ nice wit tha “Girbaud jeans!” Cheeky sounds pretty nice, here, representin’, as well, on tha hook! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s pretty nice, as y’all continue ta bring it! Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 3rd verse, here, as y’all holdin’ this shit down! Tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse’s a lot betta; dude really bouncin’ on this beat, here, wit dat “gumbo!” Da “gouda!!” My Rating: 4.4


08. Interlude
Plyreem produced this one, here… >>> An okay interlude, here… My Rating: N/A

09. “Lyfe Sintence”
Plyreem beat, again! >>> Hearin’ tha beat and it’s ehh… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ good, even tho I’m not tha craziest about these kinda real-life songs… Remakin’ Nas’ “Life’s A Bitch”, here, on tha hook, fa tha ’98, Louisiana heads; dope shit… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s soundin’ decent, as y’all keepin’ it movin’, here… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 3rd verse, here, soundin’ pretty nice… My Rating: 4.0


10. “Block Niggs” feat. Kapone & Jaccpot
I’ono, but some of these spellings iz anticipatin’ me even more!! Plyreem on tha beat! >>> Nice lil’ beat, here, soundin’ gangsta wit tha shots… Great job wit tha verses, guys! Ain’t realize this only 1:25, here… My Rating: 4.2


11. “Flatlines” feat. Courvosier

Plyreem, again! >>> Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ good on this beat, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it sounds real catchy fa “not” givin’ “a fuck!” “I don’t a fuck, not a muthafuck;” dope shit!

14. “Numbers Up” feat. Che, Kapone & Jaccpot
Mannie Fresh on this beat! >>> Sounds like a good 1st verse, here, wit Fresh doin’ a great job wit this more-exciting beat! Dope-ass hook! How about, a decade later, BluBlack & Pezie, outta Baton Rouge, remade this! Ain’t realize they knew this?! Tha “throw yo numbers up” shit sounds just like theirs! Crazy!! Neva know what’s next in tha reviewz! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s pretty aggressive, here! Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and it’s a lil’ calmer on tha voice, but they “don’t give a fuck like O-Dog,” lol; random… My Rating: 4.5


15. “Get Da Cream”
Playa beat, here… >>> Sounds like a catchy lil’ tune; luvin’ tha hook! “I’mma B-A-DD-F-E-L-L-A-Z!” Catchy lil’ beat, too…! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s pretty nice, consistently spittin’ dem rhymes!! Got tha 2nd verse goin’ on, here, and it sounds good ta hear, as well… My Rating: 4.4


16. “Dead Presidents” feat. Courvosier
Plyreem doin’ tha production… >>> Kinda sounds like a NY-soundin’ track or somethin’ that 50 Cent would rap off of, or someone else? Decent, here, but why iz it 6:56?!? I don’t even need to say anything! My Rating: 3.0


Overall: Most of this was pretty nice, here; definitely dug it! Great job wit this one, guys! Gotta keep it movin’!!
