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!

"Can't Stop"
Not only iz this Track No. 1 on here but it was my No. 1 ranked song on Down Bad's "Down Bad: From Da Block 2 Da Club" review I did on May 25, 2008. And in tha words of Way3000, he said that "me ratin' this song as tha top song helped Down Bad look into it more," so I'm REAL HONORED to have my voice be heard… like tha election, ya dig! Anyway, here's what I had to say about this joint: A better sounding intro for this. It has a lil' bounce feel to it; great feel to it as I like tha hook a lot. You know I "can't stop" doin' these reviews! 3rd verse sounded like T.I. on tha flow (like from "Front Back"). To add to this, I like that intro wit tha "I was just bullshittin'." I'm glad y'all are on all tha shit that y'all are sayin' on this! My Current Rating: 4.5
02. "All I Know" Feat. Vicious Of UGK Records
Unexpected collabo here… I wonder what y'all did wit this dude… Lookin' forward (as always)! >>> Hearin' tha hi-hats in tha beginning and they sound nice along wit what's comin' wit tha beat! Hearin' that singin' in tha beginning and I'm likin' it in this case!! Pretty nice 1st verse and hearin' tha "money, power, respect and some good green" in tha hook iz nice, especially wit tha "life" part too. Tha 2nd verse was pretty nice too. Wow, can't go wrong wit that hook as it's HELLA TIGHT!! Wow, REAL NICE start to that 3rd verse wit all those drug related thingz! That's no less Vicious; I knew he was tight! Jammin' joint right chea! My Rating: 4.4
03. "Rollin'" (Jack Da Rippa)
Let's see what we got here… >>> Hearin' that singin' again in tha hook… Of course I'm likin' it but if it happens too much, I might lose interest. It sounds good for this joint and I'm likin' that long-ass intro/hook! Nice lil' shit wit tha "rollin' on dem jiggaz." Pretty nice 1st verse but it's all about tha hook right now! I'm likin' tha "got your prescription" part! Glad tha dude on tha 2nd verse iz "stackin' like a fuckin' skyscraper!" Great shit! Ooh, I'm likin' that beat outro. My Rating: 4.3
04. "Drama N Ma City"
I hope this gives me that "yes, that TIGHT Louisiana shit!!" type of feel!! >>> "Creepin' up" type of beat… Ooh, that lil' piano in tha 2nd part of tha intro sounds nice. Here come tha hi-hats at about :37! It went quickly into tha hook. Tha 1st verse was not bad and tha hook was interesting/great. That 2nd verse was pretty nice and I'm likin' tha hook a whole lot more! Hearin' tha 3rd verse and that dude sounds pretty good wit how he raps! Definitely a nice verse from him. Oh no, it doesn't end wit tha hook; it ended wit a real cold-faded ending when it faded out fast. My Rating: 4.4
05. "Out Da Box" Feat. BluBlack
I feel like I always see this song, lol! It's just that good (must be a Down Bad classic or some shit)! Let's see what I had to say on my most recent review for it: Yeah, I remember that hook and it's nice. Likin' this 1st verse so far. Can't really say much when it comes to Down Bad songs except for tha songs bein' jammin' wit nice rhymes to make tha track sound good. I like tha lil' quiet 2 second break before tha hook comes up. 2nd verse sounds nice so far. I like that "down in B.R. city where they can't stop jiggin'" part. Good shit. To add to this: Iz this a clean version? Why? I had a feelin' when I heard it say "now I'm 'out da box'," instead of "bitch, I'm 'out da box'." Not likin' this clean shit as I might decrease tha rating from tha past… Hearin' Blu Black on tha 3rd verse… I'm guessin' I neva heard this verse before 'cause of me always hearin' this as 3.25 minutes long. His part was okay. Only a 0.2 deduction due to clean… My Current Rating: 4.2
06. "Don't Insult Me" (Terror a.k.a. Cheez)
Let's see how he handles thangz on this joint! >>> Good Louisiana feel in tha beginning of tha beat. Pretty catchy so far and as most Baton Rouge hooks like to sound, that repetitiveness wit tha title on tha 2nd ½ of tha hook sounds nice (as always). Definitely feelin' that 1st verse as it sounded pretty nice. Likin' tha 2nd verse wit that "I'm not a credit card girl, so don't charge me" line; nice 2nd verse! Hearin' tha 3rd verse right now and I'm likin' all those "dawg" parts; damn, I think I heard tha dude say it about 4 times at least; that's watz good. That'll make me boost tha rating by a 10th of a point. My Rating: 4.1
07. "So Whopped" Feat. Young Greg
*Gets excited while lookin' at a pic of Alexia, tha girl I like from my college* Ooh, more of my voice was heard!!!!! I remember when it was always "So Woped" and I corrected it 2 different times. Now, it's finally spelled tha right way: "whopped." Anyway, here's what I had to say about this joint: This joint has pretty much tha same Down Bad formula (nice beat, nice verses, catchy/nice hook) so you know it gets that good rating from me. But yeah, catchy song wit that nice beat and your typical great Baton Rouge song. On tha 3rd verse, since tha dude said "he out his body," this was good that this song made it 'cause "Jigga Juice" had that in tha hook so it fits perfectly. My Current Rating: 4.3
08. "Mo Money"
A new joint fa me… Let's see how good it iz (got anticipation)! >>> Up, it's a short one wit only 2:47 on tha length… Pretty catchy wit those "5's, 10's, 20's…" in tha hook and when it says tha title. Let's hear tha 1st verse… Likin' that "no, I'm not an actor but I be actin', actually" line as well as those popularity parts in tha beginning of tha 1st verse; great 1st verse right chea! Nice start as I'm gettin' into tha 2nd verse wit tha "damn, anotha 20" part. Nice shit right chea. My Rating: 4.0
09. "Jiggin' Nah" (Cage Da Conducta)
Likin' how it's like solo jointz on here (as it's listin' each member's own joint). Because of tha title, I should be REAL interested in it so here goes my anticipation for this joint! >>> Quiet in tha piano wit tha intro… It's kickin' in more towards tha hook as it's your typical Baton Rouge beat! Yes, that typical, Baton Rouge repetitiveness on tha 2nd ½ of tha hook! Likin' that 1st verse right chea on this shit. Pretty nice 2nd verse as well on this. Same rating as Terror a.k.a. Cheez's solo joint on here but this was easily better. My Rating: 4.1
EDIT: I didn't realize this was on tha "DB: FDB2DC" mixtape. Sorry, I guess I -0.1'd my rating from before.
10. Skit
Ooh, a skit right before ½time! This should be exciting for me; let's see watz good! I hope it's either one/all of tha Down Bad members, KJ Armour, J-Dirty or Way3000!! >>> OMG y'all mad… Shit!! What tha fuck happened?!? I'm gettin' scared from that dude that's screamin' at tha end! Unexpected skit but hey, that's an example of what goes on in tha hood so I'm guess it was good to have some of that shit on here! My Rating: N/A
½time: It's 10:29 PM (almost 50 minutes into this shit) and of course, this mixtape (CD or whateva you wanna call it) iz DEFINITELY on some CONSISTANT, TIGHT-ASS SHIT!!! I can't have lower ratings for Down Bad 'cause they just keep havin' that CONSISTANT formula (of tight club beats, different subjects (regardless of tha beats) and just… somethin' that's good Rap music)! Lookin' forward to hear what's left!!!
11. "What Nah" Feat. Tank Jones
Anotha "nah" in tha title (back 2 back on tha jointz) and Tank Jones on it too! Like he said in that "Somethin' In Da Air" joint from him, Beat Flippa, Derty & Nu$$ie, "Tank Jones a beast;" I agree wit that shit! High anticipation on this shit, especially since it's tha whole group (and not a solo)!! Hope it's close to 5 minutes long!! >>> Oh, only 3:48 on tha length. Tha beat iz startin' to kick-in so this should be exciting! Maybe tha "what nah"s are comin' at me too much, especially durin' tha 1st verse. Tha beginning of this was pretty nice; that beat iz on some Down South shit fa'real! Pretty catchy club joint right chea. Yeah, here comes Tank Jones!! Not 1, but 2 jointz on my playlist have him featured! Tha "Somethin' In Da Air" joint iz one and "We V.I.P." from Damage Feat. him & Ice Gen iz tha otha one. He, of course, had tha best part on here. Nice lil' joint right here; FUCKIN' LOVE LOUISIANA MUSIC!!!!!!!!! My Rating: 4.2
EDIT: I didn't realize this was on tha "DB: FDB2DC" mixtape as well. I didn't have much to say before but this iz a lil' better than "Jiggin' Nah".
12. "'80s Baby"
Was gonna say that this looked familiar but this (I think) was tha 3rd time I saw this title. Young Ready had it, someone else had it and now y'all have it. Let's see what goes on here… BTW, I'm an 80's baby too (6.21.1988 I was born on Long Island, New York)! >>> Uh oh, 4:42 on tha length! That typical Down Bad beat iz kickin' in/gettin' better!! Pretty catchy when it says "80's baby." Mr. 23 year old on tha 1st verse (since he was born in "'85" (as he said)). I like that "before I started jiggin'" part; that's cool how it was said (lol @ life before "jiggin'"). I definitely felt tha 1st verse and that beat iz just interesting; likin' this shit right chea! Pretty nice 2nd verse here… LOL @ tha "screamin' 'bingo!'" part; how random. Likin' tha part afta tha 2nd verse wit all those years bein' said! Good shit wit tha "1980, 1981, '82, '83, '84, '85!! 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989!!" part! This iz a GREAT 3rd verse here as we're rememberin' thangz! I rememba playin' "Ninja Turtles" (video game for (I think) Super Nintendo) and it was cool; I think I still have tha game somewhere… I don't have it on my computer though. I like that tha years were repeated afta tha 3rd verse too! My Rating: 4.4
13. "S.U.P.A."
I haven't had any songs rated ova 4.5 yet. Will this joint be "S.U.P.A." enough for that? Let's find out! >>> Underground start wit King Arthur on tha track! Decent start so far but I don't see 4.6+ on tha rating… I like that tha beat iz constantly changin'; wow, that sounds hot around tha :50 mark! I don't know if I can love this joint on a 1st listen… Hook iz just decent and all those "uh huh……"s are kinda too much. Wow, they're even in tha 2nd verse? Not too much into tha lyrics and what's been goin' on wit this joint but it's tha beat that matters tha most on here. If it wasn't for that beat, this wouldn't've survived! My Rating: 3.7
14. Skit 2
Ooh, anotha skit! Will this one be as gangsta as tha otha one? I'm curious, and I have a feelin' it's gonna be a sequel! >>> 1:14 on tha length! Nope, not a sequel but sounds cool so far… LOL @ that dude sayin' "where tha fuck iz yo stash at, nigga?" That dude sounds high/drunk (especially when he says "nigga"). LOL @ repeatin' that part!! I guess that dude that wanted to know tha info was pretty disappointed! My Rating: N/A
15. "Boom Bam"
A new joint fa me again. Let's see if this can be better than "S.U.P.A." and revive back to tha 4.0 ratings! >>> Ooh, long length (4:56 on tha length)! Sounds like a simple club banga but that typical repetitiveness in tha 2nd part of tha hook again! Pretty nice 1st verse and this iz catchy fo tha clubs right here; likin' tha "whatchu talkin' 'bout?" parts in tha hook! On tha 2nd verse, I like all those "lemme show you how" parts. Great repetitiveness in tha 2nd verse wit tha different thangz goin' on! Pretty nice start to tha 3rd verse wit tha "you tha shit 'til tha toilet flush" part. GREAT shit on tha 3rd verse wit tha "macaroni" and tha "powder pack, dawg" lines! Tha 3rd verse definitely was tha best on here. Ooh, there's a 4th verse on here too… Hearin' a "Wipe Me Down" type of patterned symbols in it and tha flowin' sounds nice too. My Rating: 4.1
16. "Female Dog" Feat. J. Hustle
Was just about to type "it's No. 16; what should I expect? Hopefully tha REAL good!," but I just looked at tha title. Anyway, this should be REAL good! J-Dirty no less was tryin' to make me promote this joint but I realized that he had it uploaded on his Youtube already. That's a nice title (as 5th Ward Weebie would say in "Bend It Ova," "she shake it like a dog!!") so high anticipation level on this No. 16 joint right chea!! >>> Yes, anotha long-ass joint wit 4:40 on tha length!! Pretty catchy wit tha "female dog" part, although I expected a faster beat, kinda like a "bounce" feel. LOL @ "let cha masturbate" in tha beginning so fast! Nice 1st verse and feelin' that catchy hook. Nice start to tha SLOOOOW 2nd verse beginning! Likin' that "no batteries, just pure energy" part. Tha 3rd verse was pretty nice to hear. Tha last 32 seconds left… Likin' those whistles in tha beat and tha "afta we smoke a pound" part for tha talkin' at tha end. My Rating: 4.2
17. "Fresh Air" Feat. J. Hustle
Anotha J. Hustle feature. I wonder what this joint gon sound like… >>> Longest joint on here wit 5:26 on tha length! Slow start… That typical Down Bad sound that's great. Likin' tha "I need some 'fresh air'" part in tha 1st ½ of tha hook, talkin' about "too much smoke in here" and then tha "I'm in my 'fresh Airs'" part in tha 2nd ½ of tha hook, talkin' about Airs and "girbauds" (glad you brought them 'bauds up) so that's watz good! Catchy right chea. Oh no, don't say tha "make it rain" shit in tha beginning of tha 2nd verse; I don't like how that became a trend to say outta nowhere. Tha 2nd verse sounded not bad though. Hearin' tha 3rd verse right now and it's pretty good. My Rating: 4.0
18. "Tryna 2 Touch"
That sounds odd to say… "tryna 2?" Lemme hear if this what you really sayin'… >>> OMG 4:40 on tha length again! Sounds like football/David Banner music, lol. Okay hook soo far… Good 1st verse. Likin' tha greetin' in tha very beginning of tha 2nd verse. I like tha "beat it like a drum roll" part. I just heard tha hook clearly in tha beginning of it and tha dude says "I'm tryna touch somethin'" so was that "2" in tha title an error? Pretty nice 3rd verse; this joint iz a jam right chea. My Rating: 3.9
19. "Mind Gone" Feat. Savage
*Continues to look at Alexia, gets a smile, and gets a BIGGER smile seein' what No. 19 iz wit a beatin' heart* OMG BEST SONG ON HERE!!!!! I was sayin' to myself, "wow, what a long-ass year this has been!!" Even though this joint from Late 2007, I started playin' it May 2008. I wish it would've won a *CERTIFIED CLASSIC* award from me… You need 100 spins at least from me to get that award; this joint only got like close to 60 wit me so far. Who knows… Maybe in tha future, it'll add up to 100! I already reviewed it in tha past but I'm in such a good-ass mood to re-review it!! >>> OMG WHAT A REFRESHIN' listen right chea!!! Yeah, LOVE that Savage beat and that so called "24's" type of beat; great idea Savage! Down Bad helpin' out tha hook iz just tight! Great 1st ½ of tha 1st verse from that Down Bad dude and great 2nd ½ of tha 1st verse from anotha Down Bad dude; likin' that "I'm No. 1, y'all No. 2 like pencils" part. TOOOOOOOOOOO CRAZY here!!! I feel blessed to be in contact wit Savage; WHO WOULD'VE THOUGHT a ½ decade ago I'd be in contact wit all these people?! Great 1st ½ of tha 2nd verse, especially wit that "Kid Rock" part. Likin' tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse too; OUTSTANDIN' flowin' right chea!! YEAH, Savage on that 3rd verse!! Gotta luv those "picture booth…/that goose…/chubby hoes…" parts! Also, I like that "I'm fulla dat shit" part; just how he said it, it sounded like how Louisiana people say it and I like how they say it. CRAZY JOINT; y'all go retarded on this shit!! My Current Rating: 4.8
20. "Blow Up My Phone" Feat. Jimi Jump & Decky Boy
*Listenin' to Robyn "Konichiwa Bitches" on Music Choice Electronica right now wit a smile* LOVIN' tha combo here! Jimi Jump on this bitch = this shit gon be tight! Too bad this tha last joint! I know y'all gon love tha review! Let's hear how we gon end this shit… >>> Anotha tight beat and anotha tight start. I'm likin' tha "smoke some pot" part in tha beginning. This iz catchy right chea and I'm likin' that 1st verse. Ooh, hearin' tha hook closer and hearin' "don't call my cell unless you'll sell" as a part of it; REAL NICE! Tha beat has a lot of bass in it and it pounds pretty hard on this shit! Great 2nd verse also on this. Yeah, tha 3rd verse was great wit those 2 dudes on it; feelin' this shit right chea. My Rating: 4.3
Overall: End Time: 11:29 PM. Oh no, it's… … … … ova!! But, it was REAL GREAT to review!! Now I finna put this shit on my iPod and be real glad I reviewed some mo shit for my boyz Down Bad, J-Dirty and err-body else that enjoys these reviews, especially y'all in Louisiana! Hope y'all really loved this review!

Tha beginning of this was pretty nice; that beat iz on some Down South shit fa'real! Pretty catchy club joint right chea. Yeah, here comes Tank Jones!! Not 1, but 2 jointz on my playlist have him featured! Tha "Somethin' In Da Air" joint iz one and "We V.I.P." from Damage Feat. him & Ice Gen iz tha otha one. He, of course, had tha best part on here. Nice lil' joint right here; FUCKIN' LOVE LOUISIANA MUSIC!!!!!!!!! My Rating: 4.2
EDIT: I didn't realize this was on tha "DB: FDB2DC" mixtape as well. I didn't have much to say before but this iz a lil' better than "Jiggin' Nah".
12. "'80s Baby"
Was gonna say that this looked familiar but this (I think) was tha 3rd time I saw this title. Young Ready had it, someone else had it and now y'all have it. Let's see what goes on here… BTW, I'm an 80's baby too (6.21.1988 I was born on Long Island, New York)! >>> Uh oh, 4:42 on tha length! That typical Down Bad beat iz kickin' in/gettin' better!! Pretty catchy when it says "80's baby." Mr. 23 year old on tha 1st verse (since he was born in "'85" (as he said)). I like that "before I started jiggin'" part; that's cool how it was said (lol @ life before "jiggin'"). I definitely felt tha 1st verse and that beat iz just interesting; likin' this shit right chea! Pretty nice 2nd verse here… LOL @ tha "screamin' 'bingo!'" part; how random. Likin' tha part afta tha 2nd verse wit all those years bein' said! Good shit wit tha "1980, 1981, '82, '83, '84, '85!! 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989!!" part! This iz a GREAT 3rd verse here as we're rememberin' thangz! I rememba playin' "Ninja Turtles" (video game for (I think) Super Nintendo) and it was cool; I think I still have tha game somewhere… I don't have it on my computer though. I like that tha years were repeated afta tha 3rd verse too! My Rating: 4.4
13. "S.U.P.A."
I haven't had any songs rated ova 4.5 yet. Will this joint be "S.U.P.A." enough for that? Let's find out! >>> Underground start wit King Arthur on tha track! Decent start so far but I don't see 4.6+ on tha rating… I like that tha beat iz constantly changin'; wow, that sounds hot around tha :50 mark! I don't know if I can love this joint on a 1st listen… Hook iz just decent and all those "uh huh……"s are kinda too much. Wow, they're even in tha 2nd verse? Not too much into tha lyrics and what's been goin' on wit this joint but it's tha beat that matters tha most on here. If it wasn't for that beat, this wouldn't've survived! My Rating: 3.7
14. Skit 2
Ooh, anotha skit! Will this one be as gangsta as tha otha one? I'm curious, and I have a feelin' it's gonna be a sequel! >>> 1:14 on tha length! Nope, not a sequel but sounds cool so far… LOL @ that dude sayin' "where tha fuck iz yo stash at, nigga?" That dude sounds high/drunk (especially when he says "nigga"). LOL @ repeatin' that part!! I guess that dude that wanted to know tha info was pretty disappointed! My Rating: N/A
15. "Boom Bam"
A new joint fa me again. Let's see if this can be better than "S.U.P.A." and revive back to tha 4.0 ratings! >>> Ooh, long length (4:56 on tha length)! Sounds like a simple club banga but that typical repetitiveness in tha 2nd part of tha hook again! Pretty nice 1st verse and this iz catchy fo tha clubs right here; likin' tha "whatchu talkin' 'bout?" parts in tha hook! On tha 2nd verse, I like all those "lemme show you how" parts. Great repetitiveness in tha 2nd verse wit tha different thangz goin' on! Pretty nice start to tha 3rd verse wit tha "you tha shit 'til tha toilet flush" part. GREAT shit on tha 3rd verse wit tha "macaroni" and tha "powder pack, dawg" lines! Tha 3rd verse definitely was tha best on here. Ooh, there's a 4th verse on here too… Hearin' a "Wipe Me Down" type of patterned symbols in it and tha flowin' sounds nice too. My Rating: 4.1
16. "Female Dog" Feat. J. Hustle
Was just about to type "it's No. 16; what should I expect? Hopefully tha REAL good!," but I just looked at tha title. Anyway, this should be REAL good! J-Dirty no less was tryin' to make me promote this joint but I realized that he had it uploaded on his Youtube already. That's a nice title (as 5th Ward Weebie would say in "Bend It Ova," "she shake it like a dog!!") so high anticipation level on this No. 16 joint right chea!! >>> Yes, anotha long-ass joint wit 4:40 on tha length!! Pretty catchy wit tha "female dog" part, although I expected a faster beat, kinda like a "bounce" feel. LOL @ "let cha masturbate" in tha beginning so fast! Nice 1st verse and feelin' that catchy hook. Nice start to tha SLOOOOW 2nd verse beginning! Likin' that "no batteries, just pure energy" part. Tha 3rd verse was pretty nice to hear. Tha last 32 seconds left… Likin' those whistles in tha beat and tha "afta we smoke a pound" part for tha talkin' at tha end. My Rating: 4.2
17. "Fresh Air" Feat. J. Hustle
Anotha J. Hustle feature. I wonder what this joint gon sound like… >>> Longest joint on here wit 5:26 on tha length! Slow start… That typical Down Bad sound that's great. Likin' tha "I need some 'fresh air'" part in tha 1st ½ of tha hook, talkin' about "too much smoke in here" and then tha "I'm in my 'fresh Airs'" part in tha 2nd ½ of tha hook, talkin' about Airs and "girbauds" (glad you brought them 'bauds up) so that's watz good! Catchy right chea. Oh no, don't say tha "make it rain" shit in tha beginning of tha 2nd verse; I don't like how that became a trend to say outta nowhere. Tha 2nd verse sounded not bad though. Hearin' tha 3rd verse right now and it's pretty good. My Rating: 4.0
18. "Tryna 2 Touch"
That sounds odd to say… "tryna 2?" Lemme hear if this what you really sayin'… >>> OMG 4:40 on tha length again! Sounds like football/David Banner music, lol. Okay hook soo far… Good 1st verse. Likin' tha greetin' in tha very beginning of tha 2nd verse. I like tha "beat it like a drum roll" part. I just heard tha hook clearly in tha beginning of it and tha dude says "I'm tryna touch somethin'" so was that "2" in tha title an error? Pretty nice 3rd verse; this joint iz a jam right chea. My Rating: 3.9
19. "Mind Gone" Feat. Savage
*Continues to look at Alexia, gets a smile, and gets a BIGGER smile seein' what No. 19 iz wit a beatin' heart* OMG BEST SONG ON HERE!!!!! I was sayin' to myself, "wow, what a long-ass year this has been!!" Even though this joint from Late 2007, I started playin' it May 2008. I wish it would've won a *CERTIFIED CLASSIC* award from me… You need 100 spins at least from me to get that award; this joint only got like close to 60 wit me so far. Who knows… Maybe in tha future, it'll add up to 100! I already reviewed it in tha past but I'm in such a good-ass mood to re-review it!! >>> OMG WHAT A REFRESHIN' listen right chea!!! Yeah, LOVE that Savage beat and that so called "24's" type of beat; great idea Savage! Down Bad helpin' out tha hook iz just tight! Great 1st ½ of tha 1st verse from that Down Bad dude and great 2nd ½ of tha 1st verse from anotha Down Bad dude; likin' that "I'm No. 1, y'all No. 2 like pencils" part. TOOOOOOOOOOO CRAZY here!!! I feel blessed to be in contact wit Savage; WHO WOULD'VE THOUGHT a ½ decade ago I'd be in contact wit all these people?! Great 1st ½ of tha 2nd verse, especially wit that "Kid Rock" part. Likin' tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse too; OUTSTANDIN' flowin' right chea!! YEAH, Savage on that 3rd verse!! Gotta luv those "picture booth…/that goose…/chubby hoes…" parts! Also, I like that "I'm fulla dat shit" part; just how he said it, it sounded like how Louisiana people say it and I like how they say it. CRAZY JOINT; y'all go retarded on this shit!! My Current Rating: 4.8
20. "Blow Up My Phone" Feat. Jimi Jump & Decky Boy
*Listenin' to Robyn "Konichiwa Bitches" on Music Choice Electronica right now wit a smile* LOVIN' tha combo here! Jimi Jump on this bitch = this shit gon be tight! Too bad this tha last joint! I know y'all gon love tha review! Let's hear how we gon end this shit… >>> Anotha tight beat and anotha tight start. I'm likin' tha "smoke some pot" part in tha beginning. This iz catchy right chea and I'm likin' that 1st verse. Ooh, hearin' tha hook closer and hearin' "don't call my cell unless you'll sell" as a part of it; REAL NICE! Tha beat has a lot of bass in it and it pounds pretty hard on this shit! Great 2nd verse also on this. Yeah, tha 3rd verse was great wit those 2 dudes on it; feelin' this shit right chea. My Rating: 4.3
Overall: End Time: 11:29 PM. Oh no, it's… … … … ova!! But, it was REAL GREAT to review!! Now I finna put this shit on my iPod and be real glad I reviewed some mo shit for my boyz Down Bad, J-Dirty and err-body else that enjoys these reviews, especially y'all in Louisiana! Hope y'all really loved this review!
