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!

#129) reviewed on 10.14.2008 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.
01. "Real Recognize Real"
Okay so how's he gonna do without his 3Deep crew on all his tracks? I know he's got to have them on features somewhere on here. Let's see how he starts this thang off! >>> Good start so far wit tha beat. Hook's pretty good so far. Hearin' tha 1st verse right now and lookin' forward. Yeah that was a nice verse from Phat. Too bad it was only one verse but it's all good 'cause for 2 minutes, 25 seconds, this was tight. My Rating: 4.3
02. "They Hate" Feat. B-Real
Did B-Real do tha beat to this one? Let's see… this should be good wit him on it! >>> Good mixin' transition! Sounds BETTER than "RRR"!! Beat iz definitely nice and LOVE tha hook! LOL @ tha "booty wit no rubber" line. Yup, it's time to get pregnant!! Yeah, good thing you got tha "llama" ready for those hatin' on your parents. Great verse and I'm LOVIN' that hook wit tha "THEY HATE THA WAY…" parts! B-Real did his thang on his verse. Yeah, REAL NICE joint right here! Glad to hear Lil' Phat's entertaining voice! My Rating: 4.6
03. "Do U Got A Problem"
You ain't playin' right now wit this Rap shit! Tha hataz are lurkin' out there! Let's see what you got for them! >>> Great mixin' from DJ Chill 'cause tha mixin' between tha tracks are real nice and real on point. Nice Louisiana beat here. Sounds like you're actin' tough on this joint ('cause of tha title). You had a good 1st verse right there. Not bad on tha hook also. And for those that hate on your voice, fuck 'em; it's a voice that speaks for somethin'. Tha same thing goes for me. People hate on my voice and look how WELL it's speakin', especially wit people from Louisiana!! My Rating: 4.0
04. "Don't Fuck Wit Me" Feat. Mouse
Just like tha end of tha hook in "DUGAP" said, "don't fuck wit me." Now look where we are: at a song called "Don't Fuck Wit Me". Its got Mouse on it and it's tha longest joint on here so far (3:38 on tha length) so high anticipation level I'm havin'. You know Mouse does drop tha track that'll make you bounce and act, what! >>> I hear that Louisiana HOT instrument in tha beginning!! *Anticipation rises* Feelin' tha boomin' in tha beat. Tha way you say tha title sounds like it in "Watch My Shoes". Tha 1st verse iz jammin'. As soon as tha 2nd hook started, it sounded like some "Wipe Me Down" symbols in tha beat. I hear Mouse now on tha 2nd verse… I like how he increases his voice on tha last voice on each of tha lines in tha 1st ½ of his verse! I felt his verse and when he said, "don't fuck wit a nigga like me," it did also sound like tha way he said it in "Watch My Shoes". Nice lil' "Watch My Shoes"ness in this joint! My Rating: 4.2
05. "I'm In Da Streets" Feat. Shell
Ooh Shell's on this joint right here!! You know my anticipation iz SKY-HIGH when it comes to shit from Shell of 3Deep! I'm glad he responds to me online when I talk to him and shit like that; that proves that he's a real dude, ya heard me! Anyway, let's get into this joint! Watch me rate it REAL HIGH; I bet'cha anything!! >>> Yeah Lil' Phat, "uh oh!" That beat gets me ready to hear this joint, ya dig! I'm glad you're "in da streets" all tha time, ya dig. LOL @ tha "I'm out chea like a fuckin' school bus" line. I liked that line right there. I agree wit you Lil' Phat, "free Young Ready already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I'm glad Young Ready wrote me back last month; that's watz good! You had a NICE 1st verse right there! I'm dyin', DYIN' to hear Shell's verse!! Yup, Shell's on tha 2nd verse! He's soundin' TIGHT on it (as always)! I always love when Shell spits new shit; it's always TIGHT and it's on FIYA!! He did his thang on that joint! This was a nice joint right here! My Rating: 4.4
EDIT: This was filmed on my old video camera so in case I make anotha DVD of myself in tha future, when I reviewed this song, it'll be on tha DVD (tha whole thing was live).
06. "I Feel Ya"
Time to continue this mixtape!! >>> Sounds like a more real type of joint here… Beat has that usual deeper Louisiana feel in it. Tha 1st 2 verses sound pretty good. Tha 3rd verse iz soundin' betta for me. I liked tha other songs on this mixtape betta though 'cause they were more up my alley. This iz still somethin' I would listen to though. My Rating: 3.7
07. "Take A Puff" Feat. Mouse & Shell
Oh WOW; HOLY SHIT!! Peeps were talkin' about this joint and look, Mouse and Shell iz on it so you know it's a complete 3Deep style right here!! Lucky No. 7, HUGE ANTICIPATION wit that TIGHT TITLE!!! >>> It went RIGHT into this! Neat lil' beat right here… Sounds like a 3Deep type of beat. Nice hook by Mouse so far and you're on tha 1st verse here… Interesting wit all them "smokin'" lyrics. When y'all sing on this, it sounds like some other songs (e.g., Mouse sayin' "bein' broooooooooke"). YES Shell on tha 2nd verse!! DEFINITELY feelin' it, especially tha "gettin' high off that PURP" part. All those smokin' parts and tha way he rapped was THA SHIT!! VERY NICE SOUNDIN' & TIGHT verse by Shell!! What a VERY, VERY tight joint right here wit all those singin' parts throughout tha song and this NICE collabo! I should've recorded this one on my old camera but I did No. 5; it's all good though 'cause that got a good rating still. My Rating: 4.9
08. "That My Baby" Feat. Lady Kim
I thought it said "Lil' Kim" but let's see how this "lady" gon do wit Phat. I have a feelin' they gon make luv on this joint… >>> Ewe… Not sure of tha start so far. I did want tha beat to be slow but wasn't sure if I was feelin' Lady Kim on tha hook (tha way she sounded). I like your "roll my blunts up, make sure they smokin'" line. Oh no, a fuckin' auto-tone! How weird, tha last review I did, for Promo Only Dance Radio October 2008, I also rated tha No. 6 song 3.7, tha No. 7 song 4.9 and tha No. 8 song, which I was iffy wit a lil', and gave it somethin' like a 3.6 (but I felt it somewhat at least). Damn, 3:59 on tha length; too long for this mixtape. I guess this iz tha part where it feels like we take a break from tha jiggin' shit. Anyway, I definitely felt your verses but wasn't too crazy about this joint. My Rating: 3.3
09. "Act Like That"
Can we start jiggin' again? >>> Sounds like a more Down South (sorta like a Texas style) for tha beat. Decent start but again, auto-tone?!? Good thing it was just on when you said tha title. I like how you said "shut up" in this. I still can't get enough of The Ting Tings "Shut Up And Let Me Go" all tha time. Not bad on tha 1st verse so far. Tha 2nd verse sounded better. It's good to let out all tha stress when it comes to all those stressful moments. Decent song right here. My Rating: 3.5
10. "Clutchin'"
Okay, likin' tha title name but I hope this song'll give me a real exciting moment when it comes to an unexpected, shocking review for a song again (like wit No. 7)!! >>> I don't know… I'm feelin' it… Maybe I need to hear it more for more feedback from me; it's decent again. I like that "red rum spelled backwerdz iz 'dumb'" line (but it doesn't look like it). Beat iz pretty nice but I don't know if I can really get into tha actual song… Might have to work on it in tha future. My Rating: 3.6
½time: Looks like tha mixtape went off to a real nice start and then during tha 2nd ½, it slipped a lil' (excluding tha BEST joint; No. 7). I'm havin' a lil' faith for tha 2nd ½ but I have a feelin' tha 1st ½ + No. 7 will be tha best. Who knows… we'll see what happens.
11. "Cold Cup" Feat. Paul Wall
This iz an odd collabo… Hope it doesn't continue tha landslide… Curious to hear this though. >>> I hear a sample from that young, black girl that died of cancer in like her 30's who had that "AHHHHHHHHHHHH" sound that pretty much influenced Mariah Carey and Christina Aguilera's HIGH-ASS notes when it came to singin' (accordin' to VH1's One Hit Wonders countdown). I'm into tha beat and feelin' it. Now this iz betta than a bunch of those past songs I was reviewin' on here. Paul Wall had a pretty nice verse. Tha hook from you on it sounded pretty good too. Yeah pretty nice 2nd verse from you. This joint iz a real nice smooth jam right here. My Rating: 4.3
12. "Neva Change" Feat. Webbie
Yeah, that's 2 key words right there: "neva change". Hopefully your music stays Louisianaish and as for Webbie, I hope he goes back to his old Louisiana roots 'cause I was disappointed from that "SL2" CD this year. I always gots luv for Webbie though so let's see how y'all did on this one… >>> Anotha slow song? Actually likin' it again. Good 1st verse and aight hook. Anotha pretty good verse on tha 2nd verse. I hear Webbie comin' up on tha 3rd verse… Feelin' his part about tha "I tried to go commercial, that shit didn't work." Good job Webbie, I hope you learned your lesson! Keep tha Louisianastream music comin'. I thought he had a real good verse. I hope this iz tha end of tha slow songs 'cause this iz a mixtape and mixtapes should not be slow! This should've been tha last song on here. My Rating: 4.0
13. "Don't Stunt" Feat. Lil' Trill & B-Real
Before I look at tha ID, I just wanna say that on my last review, I rated tha No. 13 song a **PERFECT RATING** of 5.0 so this BETTA give me an obsessive feelin' to love it! *Checks ID* Okay, anticipation from me 'cause I see potential wit tha 2 featured rappers!! >>> I'm SO GLAD it's back to gutta, Louisiana beats! Now this iz what you usually sound like (when you say "don't stunt… exclusive"). Sounds like tha typical Mouse beat which I like. That hook iz nice. Oh yeah, forgot Lil' Trill iz very young. Yeah, he definitely did a REAL NICE job on his part! That must be B-Real on tha beat 'cause he didn't rap on this. Nice joint right here! Let's keep this shit comin'!! My Rating: 4.4
14. "Get Off"
Back to yourself here… Hope you did a nice job! >>> Sounds like a Mouse or Nitti beat… Nope, "you hear tha way we rip tha Savage track to pieces!" It's "Savage on tha beat!" Now I have anticipation for this! Tha 1st ¼ of tha mixtape iz back!! Nice 1st verse and tha hook iz not bad but it's jammin'. 2nd verse sounds like you got more of an attitude! That's 'cause it's a Savage beat. When Savage gives you a beat, you're expect to just LET THA TIGHT SHIT out! My Rating: 4.3
15. "I Do My Shit"
Let's see watz good wit anotha joint by yourself… >>> Sounds a lil' better than tha "Get Off" joint. Nice beat (tha otha one was better) but better lyrics on this (e.g., "boilin' like water" line). Nice hook and real nice 1st verse. Great 2nd verse too and definitely like this and No. 14 bein' back 2 back. My Rating: 4.4
16. "Dear Lord"
Here comes No. 16, tha one I always have faith for! *Checks ID* Not really a mixtape title so I might pass. I'll listen, but I have a feelin' No. 17 will shock me. >>> Almost sounds like some Secret Of Mana music (tha video game I'm playin' right now). Not bad so far but slow and I'm not really gettin' my "slow mode" on right now for this mixtape. Real nice lyrics but that's it. I'm also feelin' some of tha beat like I said 'cause of it remindin' me of tha video game I'm playin'. My Rating: 3.8
17. "Fuck Da Laws" Feat. Lil' Boosie
I rated tha No. 17 song on my last review a 4.8 so this betta be good wit Boosie Bad Azz on it!! High anticipation level!! >>> A lil' slow on tha beat so I can only say that it's decent. Pretty good 1st verse and tha hook sounds nice. Boosie was on tha 2nd verse and told it like it was and stayed completely on topic. Definitely felt his verse and you had a pretty good hook too. Tha No. 17 song on my last review was a lot better than this but this still gets some credit from me. My Rating: 3.9
18. "In My Neighborhood" Feat. Lil' Boosie
Again Lil' Boosie! This'll hopefully be better… >>> I thought tha beat sounded like "Prostitute Flange" in tha beginning but it got better. Okay good 1st verse and I'm feelin' that beat a lil' more. Tha hook iz also real nice to hear! Well, anotha REAL NICE verse from Boosie on tha 2nd verse again! My Rating: 4.1
19. "Light My Fire"
Iz it gonna have tha old "c'mon baby, 'light my fire'" sample? If so, lookin' forward to hearin'! >>> B-Real on tha beat (liked that "you know it's a hit if you get it laced by B-Real" part for tha beginning). No sample but instead, auto-tone. *Auto non 4.0 rating IMO* Wow, just decent, lol. It was way too short (1:27 on tha length). My Rating: 3.4
20. "Bust It Back" Feat. Shell
Just realized this iz tha last joint! I can't believe it's over already. But HUGE-ASS anticipation on Shell for tha 3rd TIME!!!!! >>> Ooh sounds like a faster beat in tha beginning (like tha bounce style speed). More of a female type of joint (expected gangsta style wit tha "bust it back"; I was thinkin' more towards cockin' a gat). Really feelin' tha hook wit all that fastness wit all those "bust it back" parts! Great shit from you on tha 1st verse and hook! Yes Shell on tha 2nd verse! Yeah, definitely was nice on Shell's part even though I liked tha otha 2 verses from him on here better. Nice joint… Wow that went fast… Three minutes, 15 seconds on tha length and it's over already. That's 'cause of how FAST it was!! My Rating: 4.5
Overall: End Time: 1:12 PM. Well, a lil' more than ½ tight and a lil' less than ½ somewhat okay. I definitely felt tha mixtape enough to put it on my iPod so thumbs up Lil' Phat! Now I'm waitin' on Shell to drop a solo mixtape HOPEFULLY one day in tha future and then 3Deep's "365 Days" CD. Keep doin' yo thang and keep makin' dat tight Louisiana music!!
