Review #1,667: Doobie Smoov "Make The World Lean"

Reviewed on 3.03.2017 (Review #1,667)

Straight outta Alexandria, here goes my next review: Doobie Smoov Make The World Lean, released in 1998 on Suicide Records & was produced by Chris Jacobs, Brian Samuel, DJ Fry, Eric Whelan, Bass B & Bobby Smith! Start Time: 2:07 AM | End Time: 2:54 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. “Make The World Lean” feat. Big Mal

>>> A fast-soundin’ southern beat, here… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s nice, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it sounds like randomness, but it’s good… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s nice ta hear, too… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 3^rd verse, as well, soundin’ nice, here… My Rating: 4.1

02. “Crunk21G” feat. Big Mal & H.A.W.K.

>>> Sounds nice wit this “trunk pop” and gettin’ “crunk,” here; good hook and beat… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s good, here… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2^nd verse, here, and it sounds good, too… And, a 3^rd verse, here, soundin’ pretty nice, too… Tha “Screwed Up Click?” Could this be tha H.A.W.K. feature? Sounds like a young H.A.W.K. at that! My Rating: 4.0

03. “Nasty Hoes”

>>> Sounds like a catchy track about them “nasty hoes,” here; good hook & beat! Diggin’ tha energy! Nice job wit tha 1^st verse, here, keepin’ it movin’… Now, we got tha 2^nd verse, here, and it sounds good, too… My Rating: 4.1

04. “I Don’t Give A Fuck” feat. Big Mal & 2Phace

>>> “I Don’t Give A Fuck”? Sounds like a smooth lil’ hook, here… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it ain’t bad, here… And, tha 2^nd verse has a nice lil’ H-Town feel to it, here… Don’t really have much ta say about these rhymes, since my track titles are mixed up, but it’s nice, overall… Nice lil’ bridge about tha “yellowbone,” lol… And, a 3^rd verse, soundin’ decent, here… My Rating: 4.0

05. “Smokefest”
>>> I’m really feelin’ this beat, here, wit how one of those sounds sound! Definitely a nice lil’ shmoke song, here!! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and I’m feelin’ tha fucked-up perspective you got goin’ on, here! Good “smokefest,” here! A female on tha hook, here, soundin’ nice ta hold this down… And, tha 2^nd verse’s here, soundin’ nice, too… Good shit goin’ on throughout tha 3^rd verse, too, here… My Rating: 4.4

06. “Southside Representing” feat. Big Mal

>>> Sounds like a smooth hook and beat, here; good shit! Tha 1^st verse ain’t bad, here… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s straight, too… Hearin’ tha 3^rd verse and it’s pretty nice, too; I can hear tha H-Townness… My Rating: 4.1

½time: A 4.1-rated CD, here; good, but nothin’s really strikin’ me, here…

07. Commercial feat. Big Mal & DJ Fry

08. Thank It’s A Game feat. Desparado & Tyte Wyte

>>> Nice skit? My Rating: N/A

09. “Mr. Backdoe” feat. Big Mal

>>> Decent sound, here…; hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s decent… Hearin’ tha hook and it aight, but where’s tha title parts in these songs? Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s straight… My Rating: 3.7

10. “Crunk”
>>> Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s decent wit this slow vibe… Sounds like a dope hook, here, but are all these titles pushed over by one (e.g., “crunk” on tha hook)? I’ono, but this how I got tha CD… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s not bad, here… I’m diggin’ tha high on tha 3^rd verse, here; good shit… If these titles ain’t right, I’ll have to fix it, one day… For now, I’m just reviewin’ it in tha order it’s in… My Rating: 4.2

11. “Pimps & Playas” feat. Desparado & Herb Luva

>>> Diggin’ this beat sounds, here; pretty nice… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s nice, here… Tha hook sounds decent wit tha “pimps, playas, ballers & hustlaz,” here… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s straight, too… Tha rest of this ain’t bad, here; decent… My Rating: 3.9

12. FryStick feat. DJ Fry

>>> This a skit; not bad… My Rating: N/A

13. “So Real” feat. D.P.
>>> A slow beat, here, soundin’ nice… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it ain’t bad… “So real wit this muthafuckin’ playa shit…;” funky, smooth hook, here… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s decent, here… Tha 3^rd verse decent, too… Wow, tha final hook faded out quickly, after tha verse was done… My Rating: 3.8

Overall: Nice CD, overall; too bad tha titles were mixed up on my files… But, I got most of ‘em fixed…
