Happy
47th day in a row of reviewin’ CDs & only 13 more dayz till my
dream comes true!! How about a 3rd review today? Joe Blakk Blood, Sweat & Tears, released in 1998 on Blakk Magic
Entertainment! Start Time: 8:04 AM |
End Time: 9:12 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!

My Rating: 3.7
17.
“Think I’m Bullshittin’”
Fire
on tha beat… >>> Beat sounds nice and upbeat, here… Can this be tha
best upbeat one outta tha few that I just reviewed? We’ll see… Hearin’ tha 1st
verse and you got tha rhymes on lock, here… I’ono, I still don’t feel a 4.0,
tho… I’ono, tha rest of this kinda yada-yada… There’s almost no transition
goin’ on, here; just straight-up rappin’ on a verse… My Rating: 3.5
18.
“Omega Party” feat. Da Ques
Anotha
Ice Mike track ta end thangz off, here… >>> Again, this cool, but not
your type… Tha beat ain’t bad and so iz tha 1st verse… Hearin’ tha
hook and it’s a nice lil’ vibe, here; good shit… Tha 2nd verse not
bad but I’m now diggin’ all that “arf! Arf!” (dog sounds or whateva) and tha
chantin’! My Rating: 3.7
Overall: A good portion of this
was pretty nice but toward tha end, it sounded decent wit those upbeat tracks…
I guess you were meant fa tha gangsta shit more than tha upbeat shit? That’s
where you belong, lol!
