Wat up it's FrankieThaLuckyDog again, 'bout to do anotha review today. This one iz for my dude Big Head (reppin' Trill Entertainment). Very curious to see how good this mixtape iz of his. This iz my review for Big Head "Trill 4 Real"! And happy birthday to my aunt Linda today! Also, I didn't have a tracklisting so I used tha one on Big Head's SNOCAP thing on his Myspace (which doesn't tell me any featured artists; that could be a problem). I'm gonna do my best wit tha IDs here. Start Time: 7:44 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. "Here I Come"
Hope you deliver a NICE intro for this mixtape big dawg! >>> Not really likin' tha "here I come" sample. Okay after like 50 seconds, I'm hearin' you rap for tha 1st verse and it's soundin' good. Good 1st verse from you on this. Yeah, shout out to 3Deep; glad you mentioned them (wat up Shell)! That sample REALLY has to go!!! Nice fastness of tha rappin' on tha 2nd verse. Pretty nice intro track to this mixtape except for that sample. My Rating: 3.7
02. "Rockstar"
This should be good so I have high anticipation for this joint right chea! >>> Good thing it's 5:20 on tha length. That rockness in tha beat reminds me of playin' a video game (like Cruis'n USA for Nintendo 64). I like that "I'll knock a dude down, pick a dude up" line. Pretty nice start to this joint right now. I'm likin' it but I might have to hear it/you more to like it more. Tha lyrics are cool and on tha 3rd verse, I like how your teacher called you "smokin' on tha joint…before tha blunts." Cool beat too. My Rating: 4.0
03. "Hot Pick"
What do we got in store for this joint? >>> Cool that Beat Flippa's on tha track. I like how it said "B-B-B-B-Beat Flippa on tha track!" Real nice beat for this so far!! Great 1st verse from you and I like that "ass like a reindeer" line. Nice 2nd verse too on this. That hook ain't that bad; it's a lil' catchy. I like tha flowin' on tha 3rd verse; good job. My Rating: 4.1
04. "Dicksuckas"
Okay I just noticed that tha songs aren't in order on tha SNOCAP thing (I don't think). I'm gonna go in tha order of what I have downloaded (until further notice). Let's see what's next… >>> This one's "Dicksuckas". I'm feelin' that beat and I think I might like this song more than tha previous ones on here. That 1st verse iz DEFINITELY true about "dicksuckas;" they'll try to ruin your life! REAL great 1st verse overall! Pretty nice hook too on this. Pretty good 2nd verse too on this. I'm definitely feelin' that 3rd verse too! Great shit right here Big Head! Likin' tha fade-out also! My Rating: 4.5
05. "Retarded Boy"
What gon be next? I predict somethin' like a Mouse beat… >>> Iz this "Retarded Boy"? Sounds pretty nice so far wit that beat. It sounds like tha sound effect in tha beat goes on for a long time. I see you mentioned "Flippa" on tha 2nd verse. Iz that who did this beat (Beat Flippa)? Pretty nice 3rd verse too; also likin' tha fade-out on this! My Rating: 4.2
06. "Drought Season"
Numba 6… >>> Slow start wit that key bein' like 4 seconds long… This one's "Drought Season". I'm likin' that hook and tha way it says "tha drought season." Interesting lyrics in tha 1st verse wit tha "crime rate increases." Nice 1st verse and usually, I always have money. Because I had to pay for my books and college fee into my new college, I had to use all my money so I'm really in a "drought season" sadly. My dad iz supposed to pay me tha money back and even though he makes 10x my mom, it takes him forever to pay me back. Nice 2nd verse there too. Good 3rd verse too and interesting jam right here to listen to. My Rating: 4.1
07. "Get This Paper"
Let's see how lucky tha No. 7 joint iz on here! >>> Sounds like a real nice beat in tha beginning! Good shit so far wit tha beginning! About that "hittin' your phone up" line: A bunch of people may be not talkin' business. If I knew your phone number, you know I'd call you about this review! GREAT 1st verse and I noticed this iz called "Get This Paper"; nice title! REAL NICE flowin' on tha 2nd verse! I like that "I don't only go hard, I hard go" line. That "I need green like a color at an art show" line iz REAL NICE!!! Great 3rd verse too and so fuckin' jammin' this joint!! My Rating: 4.4
08. "Hotta Than U"
Just finna get into it… >>> Sounds like anotha good beat. This one iz "Hotta Than U"; nice hook on this. It sounds like some "Wipe Me Down" cymbals in tha hook. Great 1st verse and I like that "I'm in every hood like a lawnmower." Beat iz consistant even though it kinda repetitive. That 2nd verse was pretty nice too; I like tha flowin' on this shit. 3rd verse was nice too. Really likin' tha vibe to this shit. My Rating: 4.1
½time: This a real nice mixtape CD you got here Big Head! Keep doin' yo thang wit this shit 'cause you a big dawg, ya heard me!
09. "Menage Crazy"
N-N-Numba 9! >>> I like tha Trance beats in tha beginning! This gon be a real nice/cool beat for me! Pretty nice 1st verse. Hearin' tha hook now and it sounds just like Eve's 2001 song "U, Me & She". I didn't expect that. I couldn't figure out tha title yet but I'll prolly figure it out soon. Pretty nice here but I think I like tha other songs on here better. I'm guessin' this one iz "U Cold Girl"? Pretty good jam right here. My Rating: 3.9
EDIT: Neva mind, I forgot I can sample tha songs on tha SNOCAP player. This one iz "Menage Crazy".
10. "Something 4 Me 2 Listen To"
>>> Likin' that beat so far! That sux that tha person you talkin' about died. Just figured out this one iz "Something 4 Me 2 Listen To". I really like that beat so that gets me in tha mood to like this song. I'm likin' tha vibe of this shit right here. I thought this was gon be longer for a sec but it's only 3:27. My Rating: 3.9
11. "Murk Music"
So now what's next on this CD? >>> Sounds darker here… "Murk Music" iz tha name of this one; pretty nice start here wit that dark feel! Pretty nice 1st verse on this. Pretty nice 2nd verse also on this. I like your "I repeat: all rats must die!" line on this. Why tha fuck would we want snitches in tha world? My Rating: 3.9
12. "Cockroach"
Maybe we'll get into somethin' I'll like more… >>> Yes, "Beat Flippa on tha track!" I can tell this that "Cockroach" joint; nice start. "When you were 7, a roach crawled in your ear?" That sucks about that. I'm actually allergic to cockroaches; they're real bad for Asthma and I haven't seen one since 2003. Likin' tha rhymes on this but a lil' unsure of tha "now sweep tha flo" line on tha 2nd ½ of tha hook. Are we tryin' to clean up tha "cockroaches"? Too bad a lot of people "laughed at you when a cockroach came out yo backpack." This iz unexpected to have a song about "cockroaches." Have you had a lot of experiences wit them? I'm guessin' you did; interesting. My Rating: 4.2
13. "Run Up, Done Up"
How lucky (or unlucky) will No. 13 be for this CD? If I'm not mistaken (I don't exactly remember), you had tha No. 13 joint on tha "Uptown Allstars Vol. 2" mixtape and it was my favorite joint on there, me ratin' it a 4.9/5.0 [EDIT: It was #12 on tha "Uptown Allstars Vol. 2"]! >>> Young Ready's on this? Then this iz VERY LUCKY for No. 13!! Real nice start wit that GREAT 1st verse! Curious to know what this iz called… Oh, it's "Run Up, Done Up". That hook iz remindin' me of "Zoom". Good shit so far! I'm glad you like "enemies" more than "pretend-to-bes;" fake people should fuckin' calm down wit their fake-ass shit! Great 2nd verse. No Young Ready? How come you said, "got my nigga Young Ready, ya heard me!" in tha intro? I lost a lil' excitement there, not knowin' he wasn't on here. Still a nice song here. My Rating: 4.1
14. "King Dome"
This and 3 jointz left…! >>> A lil' slower beat but tha beat sounds pretty cool. Pretty nice so far. This one iz "King Dome" right here. Fuck BET and MTV if "they scared of you;" stay underground and deliver this HOT, underground, Louisiana music!! It was pretty interesting wit tha "we" parts in tha hook. I didn't love it on a 1st listen but it's still nice (like all yo other shit iz). My Rating: 3.8
15. "I Don't Believe"
>>> Pretty cool beat on this. This one's "I Don't Believe"; anotha joint that sounds pretty nice. Tha hook iz catchy on this. Let's see if I can catch onto this fast… I didn't catch on much but that 3rd verse was real nice. I'm likin' this shit right here as well; can't hate on your shit. My Rating: 3.7
16. "U Cold Girl"
Let's see what No. 16 has in store for me… >>> Sounds like "Put On" in tha beginning and it's back to that Trance beat in tha beginning; likin' it a lot! This iz tha one that's "U Cold Girl". Actually, I thought I was gonna like it a lil' better but it's kinda mainstream for me. An okay 1st verse. 2nd verse iz startin' wit a Shawty Lo imitation wit his quotes… Not really extravagant for me. This may be a single for you but not really a tight joint for me. My Rating: 3.5
17. "Walk The Walk"
Last joint iz… *checks to see what's left* I'm guessin' it's "Walk The Walk". I won't have anticipation for it. >>> Nice beat start and your flowin' sounds pretty good on this. Hook iz pretty cool and nice 1st verse on this. Tha 2nd verse iz soundin' better on this one. 3rd verse was good too. Nice job here as I like this better than some of tha jointz I just listened to on here. My Rating: 3.9
Overall: End Time: 9:14 PM. Exactly 1 hour, 30 minutes of this review right chea. Well, pretty good CD/mixtape you got here Big Head. It would've been cool if you had some features on it. I liked tha 1st ½ better it looks like. You keep doin' yo thang and I hope you liked this review 'cause tha music you make iz pretty nice/jammin'.
