What it do, y’all? Ya boy FrankieThaLuckyDog in tha buildin’ with my 2,022nd review, overall! Yes, it’s tha 1st tyme I eva reviewed somethin’ where tha Review # & tha year we’re in iz tha same! Shout out to this release! Courtesy of Loyalty Naturally Instilled Corporation (LNIC), my 2,022nd review iz Percy Keith Certified! Can’t wait ta hear dis one, str8 from da heart! Hopefully, I can connect with it as much as I can… I know I’m definitely a lot betta—Percy, too—since tha last live review for Percy, three years ago. Yeah, I done came a long way, after hittin’ rock bottom & now, we both shakin’ back ‘cause we dem ‘80s babies in our 30’s, ya heard me?! Just like my song from last year! Anyway, wanted ta also add to tha intro that this tha 1st tyme I’m doin’ two live reviewz in one day! My tyme on my hands iz as less as possible, these dayz, but I still manage to set records for my reviewz & media! Great, ‘80s baby, autistic stoner-type shit! Now, let’s get started with tha live review for Certified! Go get ‘em, Percy!! Start Tyme: 2:05 PM | End Tyme: 2:46 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 & 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. “Suicide”
It don’t get mo dark & street than this, Percy! Can’t wait ta hear what you got ta say but you know what’s crazy? It was a decade ago today, May 29, 2012, that I wrote a poem/news story for class & it was a suicide poem! Crazy & now, a decade later, here we are, kickin’ off Certified with a title called “Suicide”! Deep. >>> Sounds like a dark intro with tha beat & I’ono what ta make of your voice on tha hook, here… Hearin’ you on tha verse & it’s dope af! Luv that we’re ‘80s babies, ya heard me?! I can’t wait till I get betta with my productions & shit, so I can have you on my Autistic Stoner Rap, Vol. 2; can’t wait!! Fa this track, I luv how you sound on this with this dark beat; definitely what’s up!! Luv tha darkness of tha hook but Percy, alwayz stay alive, ya heard me?! Wow, tha 2nd verse has a much different flow than tha 1st… Or, I’m trippin’; it’s just a 2nd hook… But, overall, I definitely love what you brought to tha table, here! I’m just kickin’ back in my scratch-off lottery ticket socks, just thinkin’ of how much value you have brought to me, over tha whole past decade I’ve known of you, since October 28, 2012! With that bein’ said, I fuckin’ love what you brought to tha table, here; tha rappin’ & your voice was unbelievable!! My Rating: 4.9
 
 
02. “Day Of The Dead”
Love it! A whole 190 seconds of darkness, once again?! I hope you make it sound as catchy as you did fa “Suicide”! >>> Luvin’ tha dark keys & vibe, so far… You & tha “money,” here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it ain’t bad. You manipulatin’ your voice with tha effect, here, as well as doin’ it fa just tha “money.” Just had ta point dat out; lemme see if somethin’ else can catch my attention… I’m likin’ your “Welcome to tha darkside” part; definitely nice! You know you inspire me ta enjoy life in tha dark, ya heard me?! That’s how you inspire me, ya feel me?! I like how you said, “Focus,” as it sounded like, “Fo—“; good shit! I like how you talk about tha “dark tymes,” too; great lil’ flow & vibe toward tha near-end of tha track… My Rating: 4.0
 
 
03. “Rocky Road”
A chocolate ride like tha ice cream? Or, a darker ride like ups & downs? Prolly tha ups & downs but lemme hear what you got wit dis “Rocky Road” title… >>> Sounds like it’s gonna be an interestin’, slow-type of track? Yeah, it sounds like a nice lil’ country guitar in tha background, as well as tha trap/distorted beats… Nice job on tha hook, Percy; you know what it iz! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse & you in tha zone, all tha way, here… Good, I guess…? Glad you focused; this joint ain’t that bad fa me, overall… Hearin’ you rap on tha 2nd verse & it’s soundin’ slightly betta; sounds like you’re givin’ these bitches a humorous ride… Tha flow toward tha end of tha 2nd verse was a lil’ on tha catchy side; I like how you feel like these jointz gon be big. Keep achievin’ & we’ll keep achievin’ & achievin’, ya heard me?! My Rating: 3.8
 
 
04. “Sandy”
Trippy that this track iz 112 seconds long (1:52); 112 iz tha route on Long Island, NY, where I grew up at. Also, tha title, “Sandy”, gon be a whole decade since it struck Long Island! Crazy thang iz, it was tha day after I first heard of you!! Crazy tymes! Anyway, let’s get it wit dis one!! >>> Sounds like a sunny-type vibe & you even mention “Miami” on tha verse, here… “I know I’m tha shit ‘cause I got evidence”; fuckin’ well right, Percy! You know I got all my “evidence” of my life, over tha years! Feelin’ your consistent rhymes, here, includin’ all tha “common sense” parts… Yeah, “keep dem toolies on [you], like no apostrophe”; fuckin’ well right, Percy!! My Rating: 4.1
 
 
05. “OK”
Producer: HardBody
S/O to QC! “Okay?,” that iz! Anyway, lookin’ forward ta hearin’ what you got ta say on an “OK”, “okay?” Lol! >>> Intro in tha beat kinda sounds like a country guitar, again—ahh, a HardBody production, here. I think this iz way too poppy for what I’d expect from him; coulda used betta sounds, like, B.R. ones!! A whole 100.00% B.R. ones!! Hearin’ you rap on tha 1st verse, tho, sounds dope with your consistency; can’t deny it! Hearin’ tha hook & it’s pretty cool with you with tha “OK, OK”; you even got a 2nd verse comin’ along! Hearin’ what you got on tha 2nd verse & it sounds nice ta hear; diggin’ how you switch your flow, once again! My Rating: 3.5
 
 
½tyme: I fucks wit this, in a way; pretty-good start, so far, with a 4.1 average rating…! How will you continue ta bring out tha CERTIFIED in Certified?! Lemme hear, lemme hear! Keep it comin’! I have to point out, tho, that last year, while I wrote you in jail, I love that I had a withdrawal of wantin’ ta hear you tell me, from back on September 18, 2015, “Your work ethic, man; you don’t… You consistent as a ma’fucka, man…”. That shit alwayz hits me good in tha heart ‘cause you gave me tha birth of Frank Calhoune shortly after, on November 2, 2015! That’s why, I love you for life & consider you one of my favorite Baton Rouge rappers, people, etc. of all tyme! Keep gettin’ it in, bruh! 8/18 fa lyfe!!
 
 
06. “Blue Dress”
Neva got ta really peep it out, so I saved tha peepin’ out fa here. >>> Sounds nice with tha saxophone in tha beginning, throughout tha beat… I’ono how I can react to your voice in tha intro, just yet… Okay, at least your voice iz normal on tha 1st verse, here; sounds like you’re really inta this bitch, here… Basically, just a lovable anthem fa tha ladies in a “Blue Dress”; I’ll leave it at dat. Sounds like you’re gettin’ really wrapped in tha words “someone else,” randomly; lol, 6x? Sounds good with what you bringin’ to tha table for tha ladies, once again… I luv that you got all Xanned out toward tha near-end, too! Gots to feel some sorta vibe, ya feel me? My Rating: 3.2
 
 
07. “Yeah With The Yeah”
Sometymes, I catch a post when I need to catch a post, these dayz. When it came ta this track, I had ta peep out tha video & show tha track luv, ya feel me?! “Mechanic wit da tool, bitch! I’m yeah with tha yeah-yeah!” Luv how you come through on tha beat, fa tha streetz & strictly ‘bout dat “Yeah With The Yeah”!! “Yeah”!! Glad I got ta take tha month of May out ta show dis track luv, all month long! It’s still goin’ fa tha next two dayz, too! Go, Percy! #YeahWithTheYeahChallenge commercial series! Luv how you focused & unstoppable on tha 1st verse, ya heard me?! Gotta ride “thru tha city”!! Gotta luv your focus on tha 2nd verse, too; yeah! All about tha “shit” that tha street luvaz can only relate to! Gangsta-ass shit toward tha near-end of tha 2nd verse, courtesy of gettin’ “kilt” fa a “low” price! Deep… My Current Rating: 4.7
 
 
08. “Sideways”
Fa only 113 seconds, I guess this’ll just be a ladies-type track that’ll just fly on by? >>> Kickin’ it off with tha “cash”-countin’; hmm… I dig tha strength in tha “weed,” too, ya heard me?! “Can’t go a millisecond without that 9mm”; fuckin’ well right! Keep on “shmokin’,” Percy! “Turn dem bitches ta fractions”; fuckin’ well right! Tha rest of this shit’s nice ta hear, here; good shit, Percy!! My Rating: 4.4
 
 
09. “Me & My Girlfriend”
>>> You pushin’ ‘em to “listen to dis bitch in tha car,” huh? Kinda sounds like you’re remakin’, here; not bad with tha hook… Lol @ tha 1st verse: “Lotta sound effects when we together.” Sounds like okay rhymes; can’t really say too much about ‘em… You really inta tha “pussy” & all dat throughout tha 2nd verse, too; keep gettin’ ‘em, Percy! Hope you tryna live your best life, atm… Feelin’ tha bass toward tha end…! My Rating: 3.8
 
 
10. “Up Shit” feat. Doja
Can’t…wait…ta…hear…dis…“shit”! >>> Sounds a lil’ creepy in tha beginning, based off this vibe? An extra voice? A feature? EDIT: Oh, now I see it: Doja! I’ono what ta make outta dis; I just hear you vocalizin’ in tha background… Aight, hearin’ you on tha 1st verse & it’s pretty dope; “good-ass weed, I blow dat!” Fuckin’ well right; you already know how I blow on dat shit! Sounds like a fast-type of flow outta nowhere, on your 1st verse; cool, I’d say… Hearin’ tha Doja dude on tha 2nd verse & he definitely focused fa tha “B.R.”! Gotta feel tha vibes he bring to tha “B.R.” table! Great lil’ contribution ta Percy’s archive, here! Endin’ with a semi-yucky lil’ a-tune outro from you, here. I’ono but tha “pool in tha back” part at least makes me feel more comfortable, due to it bein’ a good vibe? My Rating: 4.2
 
 
Overall: Nice job, Percy; you put together a nice lil’ effort, here. Tha review went mainly in an average/above-average way, which ain’t that bad. I give you props fa continuin’ on wit dis music shit; it ain’t easy! I wish it was easy to where I can just continuously drop projects like they were nothin’! However, they need they own tyme, ya feel me?! Hope we get ta link again soon & I can’t wait till I contribute my ideas ta you fa future projects, ya feel me?! Fa now, keep on grindin’!
