Gettin’ mo reviewz out tha way, right nah… Here goes this one: Shizz Dollah P.O.L.O., Vol. 1 (Players Only Live Once), courtesy of Money Cirkle, Inc.! Start Time: 5:11 PM | End Time: 5:36 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. “Intro”
>>> Sounds like you’re slowly dippin’ into a betta vibe than tha A.D.I.D.A.S. vibe, from 2012… Likin’ all tha “off” shit, on tha hook; glad you got some addictive hooks! Hearin’ you rap and it’s pretty nice; glad you got all these “raps!” My Rating: 4.2

02. “Bossed Up”
>>> A slower vibe, here, but keepin’ it G… Hearin’ you rap and it sounds like you continuin’ tha nice rhymes, once again; good shit. I like how you said, “Polo socks; my 4-4 cocked;” dope shit! Hearin’ tha hook and it’s good; nothin’ special-special but nothin’ terrible… My Rating: 3.7

03. “Feel Good”
>>> Got D. Jackson on this beat, here; let’s see how y’all combine together… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s good, wit this Jacksontized beat; not bad… Hearin’ what you got wit tha rhymes and yeah, “Same clothes fa two dayz;” it’s true! I would say, sometimes, close to a week if you don’t have a job and are on a non-stop grind… Sounds like you picked up tha pace wit tha flow… I’ono, not err-body gotta rap fast…! My Rating: 3.5

04. “Rider”
>>> Anotha D. Jackson beat; glad y’all have chemistry…! Glad you have “a closet fulla music,” too; definitely a plus! Hearin’ tha hook and it’s a lil’ catchier than tha previous hook. Hearin’ you rap and it ain’t too bad, here. Just a regular-soundin’ track ta me, with nothin’ special or nothin’ bad… My Rating: 3.6

05. “Beef Shit” feat. Rambeezy

>>> R.I.P. y’all… Young Hits doin’ this beat; bet it gon be a top-rated one…! Hook ain’t too bad; I expected a lil’ mo energy wit this Hits beat & y’all… What’s tha deal wit tha “‘09” shit? Nothin’ great about those ‘Nu$$ie Dead’ times… Hearin’ you rap and it sounds catchy; you know what you doin’…! Glad you luv tha “Polo;” that’s why you had it “2 The Flo,” back in “’09,” like you said! I like how Rambeezy got a good representation wit tha collab, here; props to his gangsta shit! Kinda likin’ how he referenced “Bubba Sparxxx” and his “Ugly” track, from ’01; random but nice… My Rating: 4.2

06. “Noticed You” feat. Young Trayne

>>> Sounds like a good, catchy, slower vibe, on tha hook; props ta D, again, on anotha beat! Hearin’ you rap your verse on this and, as always, it sounds like you continuously able ta hold it down…! Wit Trayne on tha 2^nd verse, he sounds great ta hear, of course; great job wit y’all “Oak”-asses, ya dig? My Rating: 3.8

07. “Girlfriend”

>>> Goin’ wit tha online beats or whatevz…? Hearin’ you rap and it sounds like you tryna get along wit this online track… I’ono, I wouldn’t be cool wit it, lol… Kinda likin’ tha hook and how you have this “get down” shit on lock, as far as catchiness… Even tho these kinda tracks don’t sound tha best ta me, I’ll admit: there’s a decent amount of catchiness, here… My Rating: 3.4

½time: Not too bad, so far; I thank you got this, as far as this P.O.L.O. shit goes… A 3.8-rated CD, currently; let’s see what’s next…

08. “Freestyle”
>>> Decent rhymes, wit a random beat ta “freestyle” off of… Once it’s time to “freestyle,” you already know how to adjust yourself…! My Rating: 3.9

09. “Get At U”
>>> Sounds like a decent, catchy lil’ hook/beat… Well, of course, it sounds betta when you start repeatin’, “I’m gon get at u (I’m gon get at u)…;” nice! Like what you’re bringin’ to tha verses, here, strictly comin’ from tha “goon school,” of course! Kinda long fa a track but it ain’t too bad, overall… My Rating: 3.9

10. “No Good”
>>> Anotha okay/not-tha-craziest-about-type of song… Tha hook a lil’ catchy and tha beat kinda laidback, here; nothin’ too-too special but let’s see what else we got goin’ on… Hearin’ you rap and I’m likin’ your rhymes, with tha “Room Raiders” and all that; “good” rhymes fa a relationship song… Anotha one a lil’ long—actually, just about tha same length as tha previous track… My Rating: 3.7

11. “Product Of My Environment”
>>> Just a random beat wit a random voice bein’ sampled; nothin’ special fa me… Anotha 4:00+ track; okay rhymes and a decent hook… Nothin’ too catchy, here; nothin’ much fa me ta say… My Rating: 3.1

12. “Stevie Wonder” feat. Doe
>>> Anotha song referrin’ ta “Stevie Wonder”; this boring and mainstream-soundin’, tho… Not really inta tha flow/rappin’ on this one, as well; get away from tha mainstream!! Same thang wit Doe; this ain’t fa y’all! What else should I say…? My Rating: 1.3

13. “High Freestyle” feat. Lil’ Mop

>>> Here we go wit mo online beats… Don’t thank I’ll catch on to tha rhymes/flow, since it sounds like bullshit mainstream music, like tha last track… Great wit tha “stupid high” part, but on this beat? Naw, Mop… Even tha rappin’ can have potential to be good, but y’all shoulda had an original Baton Rouge beat on this one! You sound like you’re tryna have fun wit your rappin’ but fa’real, y’all shoulda picked a different beat ta rap on… My Rating: 2.5

14. “Spend The Night”
>>> Anotha random beat wit anotha relationship-style track… Let’s see how much feedback I’ll leave… Semi-fast rappin’; attemptin’ to be catchy but it ain’t workin’, here… Kinda bored wit tha “pocket fulla money” shit…; next…! My Rating: 1.7

15. “Bet That Up” feat. Rambeezy

>>> Sounds like there’s betta effort in this intro, here, wit tha energy! “Bet that up!” Enjoyin’ tha hook and what y’all got goin’ on, here… Good shit from Beezy, comin’ through fa you, here; gangsta at its finest…! A decent lil’ contribution from you, here; likin’ Beezy betta but it’s still betta than tha previous tracks…! My Rating: 3.8

Overall: A lil’ boring/watered-down toward tha 2^nd ½ but it looked like it started off to be above-average… Got two mo CDs ta review of yours & I should be able to get to ‘em sooner or later…
