Review #1,895: Nutt Kaze "Volume 1"

Reviewed on 12.23.2019 (Review #1,895)


While I have a lil’ bit of energy left for tha night, before I go to sleep, I gotta get at least one review in: Nutt Kaze Volume 1, released in 1999 on Underground Funk Entertainment! N’awlinz, stand up! Start Time: 6:49 AM | End Time: 7:33 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 (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

01. Intro
>>> Sounds good on tha intro, here; feelin’ tha G-Funk beat, as well as gangsta shit goin’ on, outside! It’s like a broadcast…! My Rating: N/A


02. “Knock ‘Em Off”
>>> Sounds pretty hype, here, fa a cat like you; good lil’ hook… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it str8; I give you props fa doin’ tha damn thang fa tha N.O., here…! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & it sounds good wit how you holdin’ tha hood down, here; good shit…! Hearin’ tha 3rd verse & it’s cool, once again; good shit… My Rating: 4.1


03. “What Cha ‘Bout”
>>> Hearin’ tha hook & it’s pretty dope wit this undaground-soundin’ beat; good shit…! Got tha 1st verse goin’ on, here & it’s soundin’ nice… Tha plain beat may not offer much but it gives this vibe a nice lil’ undaground vibe, just like how I said in tha beginning… Got tha 2nd verse goin’ on, here & this nice lil’ undaground vibe continues… Got tha 3rd verse 3:00 in & we’re only halfway through this track…! Sounds good; kinda gives me a Hypnotized Mindz vibe, a lil’? Got tha 4th verse goin’ on, here & it’s str8; good lil’ track, overall… My Rating: 3.9


04. “Get Ya Issue”
>>> A quiet lil’ intro, here… Hearin’ tha beat & it str8; hearin’ tha hook & it cool… Got tha 1st verse goin’ on, here & it sounds nice fa these “projects,” ya dig? Multiple rappers on this track? Nutt Kaze = a group? Then again, where I got it from, I don’t think features were listed? Either way, tha 2nd part of tha 1st verse cool, too… Was it me or did it sound like a long-ass hook? Was that a beginning of tha 2nd verse? Either way, I’m pickin’ up from tha more-hype dude fa tha start of tha 2nd verse, here & it’s pretty gutta…! Tha rest of this seems kinda long but it ain’t that bad… My Rating: 3.8


05. “Make It Hot”
>>> Literally sounds like N’awlinz, here; nice lil’ “hot” hook & beat! Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it sounds good; you know what these streetz iz! Got tha 2nd verse goin’ on, here & it str8; good shit! “No one iz equal” iz right! Anotha track that’s a lil’ long but it’s all good… My Rating: 3.8


½time: Sounds like you got tha N.O. on lock wit these anthemic tracks, as well as tha streetz bangerz…! A 3.9-rated CD, so far; let’s keep it movin’…!


06. “Act A Beast”
>>> A short track, this time…! Hearin’ tha beat & hook; both are cool, here, ta get buck to…! Hearin’ tha verse & it sounds good fa tha 5-0-4, once again! My Rating: 4.0


07. “Catch A Break”
>>> Back to tha semi-plain productions that sound good fa tha undaground, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it ain’t bad, here; regular-soundin’ rappin’ fa tha south, here… Hearin’ tha hook & it cool wit tha background-soundin’ voice ta add ta dis…; G-shit…! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here & it sounds str8; not bad, overall… My Rating: 3.6


08. “Soulja Shit”
>>> Sounds nice; “Quarter Key,” huh? Tha “Quarter Key” from tha N.O. on here? Nice lil’ collab, if so…? Catchy hook wit tha “Quarter Key” & “Quarter Bird;” nice! “QB,” too? Lots of “Q”s! Nice lil’ 1st verse goin’ on, on this nice beat… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ nice; rhymes, rhymes, rhymes! Vibe, vibe, vibe! Hearin’ tha 3rd verse & it aight, too; I’ll give it props fa its street content… My Rating: 3.7


09. “I Don’t Love Dem Hoes”
>>> An R&B vibe, here…? It’s gonna sound like it gon go downhill, here… This boring shit throws tha vibe off…; too slow & no rappin’! Oh wait, at 2:24, here comes rhymes! Sounds good/decent, even tho I lost interest by now… My Rating: 1.4


10. “South Syders”
>>> Damn, 6:49 on tha length! Betta not bore me b4 this ends…! Afta 42 seconds of an intro, here comes tha 1st verse & it sounds okay on this beat. This vibe & shit does give me a vibe of, like, tha dayz of Rap City? Undagroundness at its finest! Tha 2nd verse’s cool; nice rappin’, here… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 3rd verse & it’s soundin’ nice, here; just seems long, especially fa no hook… Hearin’ tha 4th verse & it cool lil’ undaground rap; what could be next…? Got tha 5th verse goin’ on, here & it’s soundin’ nice ta hear; let’s keep goin’… Also, a long but anthemic outro, here… My Rating: 3.5


Overall: Most of this sounded great ta hear, fa New Orleans… Only song that weakened tha CD rating by 3/10 of a point was that R&B track. Either way, I thought you did a nice job wit tha tracks. Only really loved tha “Knock ‘Em Off” & “Act A Beast”, as tha others were right under tha 4.0 mark…
