Review #138: 3 Way Street Radio Presents "Jigg City Rockstars"

Reviewed on 10.17.2008 (Review No. 138)


Damn, I'm tired right now (wit my neck), it's FrankieThaLuckyDog here… And here's anotha review from me! Here goes my review for 3 Way Street Radio Presents "Jigg City Rockstars"! BTW, because this mixtape (and tha other one I'm reviewin' today) iz a compilation, I'm prolly gonna know some songs/have reviewed some in tha past. If that's tha case, I'm just gonna copy from my older reviews and paste tha review onto here. This iz important 'cause I gotta get as many reviews done as possible 'cause college iz to tha point where I have to focus on it more and so I can have tha same rating for tha song. I may change tha ratings if I feel different about tha song now also. Start Time: 5:47 PM | Video Game Playing: Secret Of Mana (for Super Nintendo) (on my computer)


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. Max Minelli Feat. Coline "Fresh 2 Death"
I don't feel like checkin' to see if I know it… Actually, I just did on my iTunes and I do know it. Lemme remind myself here by hearin' it… >>> I like that "we will rock you" intro for this. Nice intro from Greg Dukes. I couldn't picture a girl on a Max song, but yeah, tha girl sounds nice. I'll give her tha acceptance. I like tha "To The Max" (from A-Mar & Dyl) sample when Max Minelli goes in his verse "you know how I do it, fresh out tha plastic seal" in that song. I like tha "you can't clone me" part in tha hook from Coline also! This would be a great follow-up single from "U Gotta Luv Me Baby"! This sounds a lil' better hearin' it. I didn't expect this to be tha 1st song on here but it iz. BTW, ID Error No. 1: Coline iz tha featured artist on this (according to tha "The Remedy" CD). BTW, nice lil' check-in at tha end from Greg Dukes. I LOVE Baton Rouge and I can't wait to visit it in tha future!! My Current Rating: 4.1


02. Dope Celebrity Family Feat. Lil' Jay & Delwin Da Krazyman "Baton Rouge"
Nailin' it on tha features I see! Finally listin' 'em. I'm DEFINITELY lookin' forward to this mega collabo!! Hope it's at least 5 minutes long! >>> Up, only 3:56 on tha length. Unexpected "Born N Raised" beat. It's a nice start so far wit that "B.R." hook! That dude on tha 1st verse has a cool Baton Rouge voice; nice 1st verse right there! That was a nice 2nd verse too and I'm glad they mentioned Nu$$ie. Let's see tha 3rd verse… Nice rappin' and rhymes, especially wit that "play wit Lil' Jay and I'mma leave yo skull duggery" line! My Rating: 4.3


03. Luch Million$ "This Him"
He's a Louisiana representative? I neva knew that… Anyway, let's see how he did on this mixtape… >>> Nice lil' intro of him talkin'. That's a real tight beat; sounds like Nitti! I like that Rich Boy sample on tha hook; this sounds kinda mainstream. Great 1st verse right there; this a joint that goes hard wit that beat!! Great 2nd verse too on this. What a jam right here! My Rating: 4.5


04. Delwin Da Krazyman "Cool Me Off"
Now let's see how this dude gon do it without tha others from tha "Baton Rouge" song… >>> Not bad start… Typical down south sounding… Decent song so far. Sounds like Lil' Boosie on tha 2nd verse (or someone else). Nice 2nd verse as well as tha 1st one. A young kid sounding on tha 3rd verse… Who are tha featured people? Nice shit right here and "cool" title/hook. My Rating: 3.9


05. A.N.T. "Party Animal"
A new dude to me so let's see how much of a "party animal" this "A.N.T." iz, lol! >>> Neat beat and tha hook iz okay 'cause it's a typical, repetitive one. Nice 1st verse; this dude sounds pretty cool to listen to. Iz that a different dude on tha 2nd verse? I guess it iz but I liked tha 1st verse a lil' better. My Rating: 3.8


06. Lil' Ronnie Feat. Thrasher Boy "Club Money"
There's a Lil' Ronnie from Texas and then there was an R&B singer after that. Who's this 3rd one? This hopefully should be an interesting joint since its got "Club Money" as its title. >>> X-Fyle on tha track (gotta luv those random "___ on tha track" things on random tracks)! Nice beat and nice start wit tha good vibe. Great 1st verse so far since that dude's "'bauds saggin';" that's watz good. Great collabo here!! Likin' this joint a whole lot wit that hook and that great 1st verse so far! Wow, nice ending of tha hook wit tha "gettin' full of dem blunts, blunts, blunts, blunts!!" I'm glad it repeated again that fast! Let's hear this 2nd verse… Tha 2nd verse dude iz on that Doulja. Pretty nice 2nd verse too. That dude on tha 3rd verse sounds hungry for this track! He sounds like he doesn't stop rappin'! Great 3rd verse as well! REAL NICE joint right here!!! My Rating: 4.7


07. 2 Gutta "Transform"
This that female from tha "Jigg City Allstars Vol. 1" CD? I think I'm anticipated to hear what she's got again; how did she "transform"? >>> I think I liked tha otha joint better but this has a nice beat so this could have a chance… Sounds like a nice/crunk/gutta 1st verse! She sounds like a crazy chick 'cause she's on a lot of shit and she's deliverin' this joint nice! Nice and now at about 2:50, it sounds like someone else… That dude sounds CRAZY/GUTTA also!! Great shit and wit 1:10 left, Greg Dukes talkin' already? That's cool that he talked during what was left and that tha joint just kept continuing consistantly! My Rating: 4.0


08. Big Boom Feat. 2 Throwed "Take A Picture"
Let's see what this joint's about… >>> Mr. "A Bay Bay" in tha beginning… Not bad for tha start… Not bad on tha 1st verse. Decent song for me so far. Cool effect around tha 2:40 mark on tha 2nd verse. Nice "fresh" shit in tha 2nd verse. I like tha "I flow like fluid" line; nice 2nd verse. Pretty nice song, somewhat of a mainstream feel. My Rating: 3.7


09. Webbie Feat. Lil' Phat & Lil' Boosie "Independent"
This CD must be from last year if this shit iz on it. Damn, this joint iz very old (and tha songs I've heard that were older than this don't feel older than this). That's a confirmed error on tha ID: ID Error No. 2: Lil' Phat iz not in tha ID (when he's on tha hook and tha 2nd verse). I still really like this song and I'm glad it had all tha success it did have! Louisiana had a much bigger 2007 than 2008 in tha mainstream. Music Choice Hitlist still plays this and tha other Music Choice channels don't play it (I don't think) anymore, lol! I'm glad I got to hear and review so much Louisiana shit in 2008 and I'm hoping it continues! I'm also blessed to talk to, do business wit and become real cool wit lots of rappers, managers, DJs, and all them good people in Louisiana! I'll always be here doin' this shit and doin' anythang for Louisiana peeps, ya heard me. Always liked Lil' Phat's verse and hook tha best in this. My Current Rating: 4.4


½time: So far pretty good. I'm likin' a lot of shit on here but I think I like tha "Jigg City Allstars Vol. 1" CD better (which I should've reviewed this one before that one). I'm curious to know what's left…


10. Thug Brothers "Shoe 'Em How To Act"
Let's see… I hope this iz good (I have a feelin')! >>> Liked tha "Party Like A Rockstar" lil' interlude/intro for this. Now onto tha actual track: This sounds like it has a nice beat so far. I like tha hook and it looks like I'm enjoyin' tha beginnin' of tha 1st verse! Great 1st verse and now tha 2nd verse iz on and I'm likin' it also; cool voice. Pretty nice 3rd verse too. Glad that 3rd verse dude iz a lady's "genie in a bottle." That's cool that Greg Dukes iz "jigged out" from all this shit and all tha studio shit. My Rating: 4.2


11. Down Bad "Jigg It Out"
I don't think I know this Down Bad song so let's have tha jiggin'ness continue!! >>> Only 2:03 on tha length on this mixtape… I hear "pants saggin'" in tha background of Greg Dukes talkin' so thumbs up on that. Sounds like it's a very fast vibe! Nice 1st verse and that hook sounds good too! Feelin' this fast shit! Great shit here and likin' that 2nd verse too! My Rating: 4.4


12. J-Money Feat. Lil' Boosie "She Bad"
Was wondering who that was that Greg Dukes was mentioning at tha end of tha "Jigg It Out" joint. Let's see what J-Money this iz and how this joint gon sound… >>> It says Lil' Boosie's on tha feature on tha mp3 but not on tha cover so that's ID Error No. 3. Wow, this sounds tight so far! I was almost afraid to listen to it 'cause I thought this was J Money (without tha dash in between his name) that DJ Scream fucks wit (wit that "first name, last name" shit). NICE beat and great start so far on tha 1st verse! Nice 1st verse and jammin' hook right chea! Lil' Boosie did a nice job on that 2nd verse right there, tellin' tha girlz some good advice! Good 3rd verse from J-Money as well; nice club banger right here!! My Rating: 4.5


13. Tha Camp "Move Around"
Interesting that you put a Tha Camp song on here! That's REALLY watz good that you put this on there! There were a bunch other better songs from that "Break It Off!" CD, but I loved 'em all so I don't care which one gets on here; this iz good! Oh yeah, no errors on tha ID 'cause Tha Camp iz a group consistin' of various Baton Rouge rappers. B-Real on tha beat! Oh tha intro tellin' me who's in tha whole camp: C-Loc, Max Minelli, Young Ready, Reno, Crucial & B-Real. That's tha whole camp. Tha beat sounds tight. Max Minelli starts tha 1st verse off… Glad "his flow caught a fever!" He did good. My ma'fuckin' DAWG Young Ready on tha 2nd verse!! Yeah, he'll DEFINITELY "leave a body by tha interstate." That's how RAW he iz when it comes to tha raps, ya dig!! I guess tha 3rd verse was from B-Real. Pretty good. Tha hook was pretty good too. My Current Rating: 4.4


14. 38 $limm "Matchbox"
I might remember him from some of tha "Pyrex Radio" compilation mixtapes. If I remember, him and another dude (that he always raps wit) raps over jacked beats? That's what I'll guess this'll be: a jacked beat. >>> Good unfamiliar beat! It started outta nowhere without an hesitation! Great voice for this song, great intro and hearin' tha 1st verse and it's soundin' tight! Oh yeah, forgot about that hook; it's tight also! A nice 2nd verse too. Even though only 2:32 on tha length, this was some tight shit! I guess it's shorter at tha end 'cause it just went into Three 6 Mafia's "Like Money" joint. My Rating: 4.4


15. Down Bad "Out Chea"
I heard this one before but because I heard it a while ago, I'm gonna re-review it right now. >>> I can't get enough of their hooks!!! They always prepare a REAL NICE joint!! Reminds me a lil' of tha "I Smoke, I Drank" joint (wit tha beat and tha beginning of tha hook; how it sounds). Likin' that 1st verse right there. Nice gutta feel on tha 2nd verse wit those lyrics about tha "AK" and shit like that. Nice 3rd verse too on this. Can't really say much about Down Bad 'cause they always deliver a nice track! My Current Rating: 4.3


16. Pramance (Of Da Southern Boyz) "Bad 2 Da Bone"
Let's see how this joint gon sound (nice title)! >>> Sounds like it fits tha title of this mixtape wit tha "rockstars" shit. A lil' different from what I've been hearin' on here… Okay start so far… You know I'm gonna have to get used to this shit. Okay, as I heard tha 2nd verse, I was startin' to like it more. This could be somethin' addicting to listen to so I feel it growin' right now! Real nice 3rd verse as I like this shit more! I like that "Joker/spades" line towards tha end of tha 3rd verse. Now I'm likin' tha hook also; real catchy! My Rating: 4.4


17. Parktown Bone "Do Yo Thang"
Anotha "bone"? LOL! I might like this one too a lot! >>> Anotha X-File track so this could be a definite high rating from me! Likin' tha beat so far and lookin' forward to hearin' tha track startin'… Yeah, this iz tha shit I can get into. I like that this dude gon "do his thang" in a "polo" as he said that on tha 1st verse. And now I'm hearin' that his "pants saggin'" so he's got his swag game up! Now you know I'm gonna love this shit instantly!! And he's from Baton Rouge so that's a plus again!! Three pluses within a verse!! Lovin' tha 2nd verse too wit tha smokin' shit, tha "dope" and all tha otha shit he talkin' 'bout. I don't know what my highest rated song was on here but if it was just 4.7, then this joint iz my favorite. We'll see what happens at tha end. Lovin' this shit right here! My Rating: 4.8


18. Kidd Kidd Feat. Lil' Bubba & Big Head "On Them Tee Tees"
Last joint here… Let's see how they collab wit Big Head! >>> Dude on tha 1st verse sounds like a different version of Lil' Boosie. He's "on that Doulja" so that's good for him. Good 1st verse and now I'm hearin' that hook… Sounds familiar but I don't think I heard tha song before. I like that shit on tha hook, especially that "chokin' on that purp" line! It sounds like Big Head on tha 2nd verse… LOL @ "doin' a 2 step" after "hittin' that purple." Yeah, nice 2nd verse and I'm likin' that "everytime I hit tha club, I'M JIGGIN'!!" part also in tha hook! That was a nice 3rd verse too. Ending of this joint/mixtape was a lil' too cold (it like cut off). My Rating: 4.5


Overall: End Time: 7:16 PM. Well, this only took me 1 hour, 29 minutes; not bad! It looks like tha 2nd ½ of tha CD was pretty much still on tha ratings (most had 4.3 – 4.5) but DEFINITELY anotha nice mixtape here!! I'm lookin' forward to tha next one I finna peep out ("Got Pills? 2")! Keep an eye out for it in like 2 hours!
