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 or have auto-tune in your vocals, I’m not buyin’ it!

01. Intro
How will you do on this intro? >>> So this must be pretty recent since you said that my dawg Young Ready iz in jail. You DEFINITELY "are reachin' out to tha people" and I DO "give a fuck" about your music! My ears are all on your CD right now dawg!! My Rating: N/A
02. "Anybody Can Get It!" Feat. Young Ready
Wow Young Ready FEATURED ON IT ALREADY?!!?!?!!! YEAH!!!! And tha title even has an EXCLAMATION POINT to prove that it gon be HOT!!! REALLY LOOKIN' FORWARD TO THIS!!! >>> Beat sounds like a different version of "Set It Off" by Juvenile. Tight start wit tha beat and you startin' off tha 1st verse!! Great verse! Young Ready did his thang on tha 2nd verse!! Great collabo and great intro song even though I felt tha "I Mean That" intro song better. Great Louisiana beat again wit a somewhat "Wipe Me Down" feel to tha beat! My Rating: 4.4
03. "Straight Drop" Feat. Savage & Young Crucial
So you're levelin' yourself up I see, now that you got Savage on tha collabo! This should be fiya!! >>> Anotha cool Louisiana (Baton Rouge) beat!! Great 1st verse and tha hook has that "pyrex" in it again (heard earlier today on one of tha otha reviewz I did). Great hook! Young Crucial on tha 2nd verse! Great 2nd verse by him! He did his thang! My boy Supa Sav (a.k.a. tha real Savage) on tha 3rd verse! He made tha joint sound interesting to listen to. Good shit! My Rating: 4.3
04. "Beat It Loose" Feat. Max Minelli
Now it's Max Minelli on tha feature! You know you KNOW how to keep tha consistantness goin'!! >>> Anotha tight Louisiana beat! I like tha "WWF" line.
Great
1st verse and tha hook iz catchy. That's cool that Max Minelli had tha
background vocals. Great, he's on tha 2nd verse! He definitely did his thang on
tha 2nd verse, givin' tha females tha right advice! Great female song right
here! My Rating: 4.205. "Doing Me"
Let's see how you do you! >>> Anotha great Louisiana sound!! Sounds like a Music Choice Rap type of song. Cool swag song about yourself. Cool joint right there. Catchy hook too. A lil' mainstreamish so who knows if it gets out in tha mainstream (or local Louisiana) world. My Rating: 4.2
06. "Neva Been" Feat. Young Crucial & Savage
Back wit this collab again! Tha 3 of ya'll couldn't get enough! I have a feelin' this song iz gonna be like "I've 'neva been' a snitch/pussy" or on some shit like that. Lemme find out! >>> Sounds like nearly tha same beats as one of tha ones on here. Still sounds great 'cause it's that Louisiana sound. So it's "neva been a bitch." I was close. Yeah C-Loc, you've been a WHOLE LOT! That's why you keep it real!! Savage on tha 2nd verse!! Savage wit tha "hand grenade!" He's very trill!! Definitely a great verse from Savage! Great 3rd verse from Young Crucial too! My Rating: 4.3
07. "You Gon' Lose" Feat. Young Crucial & Savage
Ewe (in a good way; it's a word I use as a catchphrase) it's Young Crucial & Savage 2 play!! And LOL @ tha title! I actually had to take a 2 minute break from tha CD 'cause I had to fight this boss in this game I'm playin'. I got to tha part where I only had like 2 minutes to beat him and because I was trained VERY STRONG in tha game, I beat it in like 10 seconds, so for tha title, NO, "I won't lose," LOL!! Let's see how this joint gon sound though! >>> That OLD Savage sayin' that I loved: "Savage on tha beat!" Now he does tha "you hear tha way we rip that Savage track to pieces" or somethin' like that. Savage took this beat to a more serious level!! LOVE IT!! Tha hook iz VERY Baton Rougeish!!! Feelin' that tight 1st verse! Crucial iz doin' tha damn thang on his verse! He's REAL TIGHT on tha 2nd verse!! Oh yeah, Savage was supposed to post some of his sound effects that he uses on tha Word Of South board! Savage, get tha time to do it 'cause I DEFINITELY need sound effects to produce! Anyway, Savage went back 'n forth wit tha beat and just rode it nice!! GREAT verse by Savage!! My Rating: 4.6
½time: It's off to a real good start (of course). However, I liked tha "Under That Old Law" CD a lot better so far. Hopefully this can keep up!
08. "Rachet Chic" Feat. Young Crucial
Again Young Crucial, lol! Let's see what ya'll did without Savage… >>> Nice beat intro so far. Okay song for me. Its got a real nice down south vibe, but I guess tha "minus Savage" thing kinda made me rate it a lil' lower. Nothin' really to say but I just like tha relaxin' vibe to it. My Rating: 3.7
09. "Rap Star"
That's a nice title. Let's see how you put it into a song! >>> A better beat this time. A female singer on tha hook and she sounds hot. "I know;" nice tha way she said that. Yeah, most rappers are "toilet tissue" these dayz. TELL 'EM C-LOC!!! Interesting 1st verse! You gave information about those up-and-comin' rappers, tellin' 'em not to be wack! More HOT advice on tha 2nd verse! Wow tha song ended fast/outta nowhere. Great 3rd verse too! REAL GREAT advice on up-and-comin' rappers! My Rating: 4.3
10. "Keep It Pushing"
Will this be a good motivation song for me? >>> I had a feelin' it was gonna be short; it's only 2:28. Yeah good motivation song for you but this ain't mindblowin' like a bunch of your otha songs. Good lyrics though. My Rating: 3.6
11. "It's Going Down"
I see there's not many features this time. I wonder how this one gon sound… >>> Pretty good beat wit that sample in tha beat. Pretty good hook so far. Not bad on tha 1st verse even though I couldn't get into it that much. Tha hook iz catchin' on more for me but other than that, tha verses was just okay. My Rating: 3.8
12. "Ain't Got A Clue"
>>> Beat ain't that bad, lost a lil' interest on tha 1st verse but tha hook iz nice. Well, at least you keep not givin' tha streetz up. You well respected in tha streets. My Rating: 3.8
13. "Listen Son"
Hope tha title can catch on for some better ratings from me… >>> Okay, a better beat intro. *Crosses fingers* Tight beat for this song and tha rappin' sounds better. Tha hook iz nice, especially wit tha beat gettin' better! This iz some better shit from tha last bunch of songs. Good song/comeback to tha 2nd ½. My Rating: 4.2
14. "Make Way" Feat. Savage
Finally back to tha features and it's my boy Savage! Let's see how ya'll did without Young Crucial… >>> Oh it's a short Savage feature song wit only 2:59 on tha length. I like how Savage started tha song off. Tha beat iz definitely tight and you on tha hook C-Loc iz tight! I like Savage's Biggie mention of tha "I just want tha paper" quote. Glad Savage started it off! Nice verse by you also. Catchy song/anthem right here. My Rating: 4.3
15. "Rubber Nose" Feat. Young Crucial
Ugh, thought that was Young Ready on tha feature. I guess he barely appeared on here due to his jail time. Anyway, let's see how ya'll ended this… >>> Only 2 minutes, 12 seconds long? *Gulp* LOL @ tha hook! Catchy song! Okay verses and real catchy hook. My Rating: 4.1
Overall: End Time: 10:03 PM. Well C-Loc, this iz my honest opinion: out of all 4 CDs I reviewed today (which you were on all of them), this one was easily my least favorite. My favorite was easily tha "Under That Old Law". That was REAL TIGHT, especially wit all tha Young Ready collabos! I know you cookin' up some new shit prolly right now and waitin' for Young Ready to get out so you could cook up more, but I just wanted to say that it was a real pleasure to review so many CDs of yours in one day. I wanted to get it all outta tha way in a day so there you go. Keep doin' yo thang!
