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
Let's see how we gon start this mixtape of yours off... >>> Yeah, "you'd neva know that he [you]'d come back like this;" glad to see you back so soon! Kinda short, but gets you anticipated!! My Rating: N/A
02. "Your Life"
Talkin' about someone else's "life" here... I wonder why... >>> It feels odd reviewin' without a video game playing right now (due to I got a test to do, so I'm only reviewin' 1-5 right now). Beat iz nice for these REAL NICE lyrics!!! When it comes to your songs, I don't care what tha beat sounds like 'cause your lyrics are just REAL NICE!! Tha hook DEFINITELY sounded good, and I guess that's why it's called "your life;" GREAT 1st verse! Hearin' tha 2nd verse... LOL @ tha "Mrs. Officer" cop imitation! Your voice iz SOOOOOOO CONSISTENT when it comes to this shit!! One of tha BEST voices from tha underground right here! Too bad this iz only 2 verses/2:27 on tha length. Another REAL NICE verse comin' from you on tha 2nd one!! I fell in love wit this song, surprisingly (off on a start)!! Ooh, I hear Ya Boy Earl at tha end... He, or one of your peeps, has to hit me up wit $30 or $50 (by sendin' me a check in tha mail) if y'all want me to make you a commercial for this "All In" CD right here! My Rating: 4.4
03. "I'm A Grinder" Feat. Beezy Bird
Let's keep these gutta, underground tracks wit a nice vibe, continuing!! >>> Sounds like I might've heard this one on a Myspace (tha intro). LOL @ that hook; great voice!! Interesting beat here... Reminds me of one of those beats Ya Boy Earl would like to talk on (will he talk at tha end?). Definitely a nice 1st verse! Tha shit you be spittin' iz tha shit, and real to tha bone!! I'm glad you have tha strength, and tha braveness, of alternating your voice in a good way! Tha 2nd verse sounds just as good, only better!! I like tha "let my pants sag" part at 1:47! LOL @ tha "my homeboy trippin', 'cause he an alcoholic" line. Another great joint here wit those nice "bow, bow..." parts in tha background of tha beat! A fade-out outro on this one? Hmm... And Ya Boy Earl didn't speak on this one... My Rating: 4.3
6.01.2009 EDIT: Word from rapper Beezy Bird from Gardere Lane/G-Lane in Baton Rouge that DJ B-Real sampled his voice (tha "bow, bow") on this shit, so I put him in tha feature! Thanx ta him fa tellin' me that on MySpace!
04. "Who Got Love" Feat. Dat Boy A
YES, featured artist cited!! To tell you tha truth, I actually got tha tracklisting to this CD within 24 hours before you sent it to me on Myspace. And I just went back to where I saw it first, and they didn't have tha featured artist listed for this song, nor did they have tha No. 2 song correctly ID'd. I'm glad I got it from you, tha artist, and I'm glad to source Dat Boy A on this track. I hope this iz another gutta-ass track, and that I get to like who this Dat Boy A dude iz! >>> Ooh, it's a Dead Game collabo here; good shit! Good beat (as usual), and hearin' that hook/intro from Dat Boy A, and it sounds pretty nice. Startin' tha 1st verse off wit you... Shit, you're too fuckin' funny, but in a lyrical way, wit what you spittin'! LOL @ that "my shoes look like shit;" too real and not dickriding yourself! You did a REAL NICE job on your verse, and ended it good too! Let's hear what you got goin' on in tha 2nd verse... Nope, it's Dat Boy A on tha 2nd verse. Strong lyrics wit callin' tha haterz "cocksuckers," lol; he ain't playin'. Almost has a Young Ready type of voice... that's watz good. I like tha "blowin' Doulja" part; good shit! Have to feel his verse right there! He might make out to be a good rapper in tha future wit his own projects. Ooh, there's a 3rd verse from you on here! LOL @ "got my people out tha way, I'mma sit on a few;" good shit from you on tha 3rd verse, but you REALLY held it down on that 1st verse! Real cold/cut off type of ending here, and no Ya Boy Earl at tha end too... My Rating: 4.2
05. "Ain't Real @ All"
Cool for tha "at" symbol bein' used instead of tha word "at." Anyway, another interesting title, so I'm really lookin' forward!! >>> Shit, only 1:54 on tha length? Very short... I can't picture sometimes wit songs under 2 minutes. Tha beat sounds real slow in tha beginning, so what could I expect? Well, its got a slow melody, but a faster beat... Glad "your daddy put up a key for you." Well, it was just a freestyle; you did yo thang on this shit, fa'real!! Sounds like Juelz Santana at tha end, but it's someone else. Interesting lil' skit at tha end that made perfect sense for this. For a sec, I thought Earl was gonna be at tha end (due to it was short like when he was on No. 2). My Rating: 4.0
Intermission: 11:11 PM. Hate to cut it short for you, and your birthday, but I gotta REALLY finish this Modern Belief test; it's gettin' me nervous, especially that it requires me to write a letter... I'll resume this right after tha Modern Belief class, which I should be home around 1:30 PMish tomorrow. After hearin' tha first quarter of this, I'm REALLY in tha mood to continue, and I HOPE tha rest of it goes REAL GOOD too! Congrats on winning tha "Louisiana CD Of Tha Year" on my 2008 Awards for "All Or Nuthin'" (hope you got tha award for it, as well as tha *CERTIFIED CLASSIC* one for "Get In The Way (Remix)", from Southpaw). I'll holla at ya, and continue this, tomorrow! >>> LOL, and speakin’ of Southpaw, it’s his birthday today (LOL @ tha consistent birthdayz), so HAPPY BIRTHDAY to him too! It’s 6:57 PM (yeah, I lied about comin’ back at 1:30 PMish to continue this), and tha Modern Belief take-home test iz OVER!! Thanx to my gurl at college, she helped me talk to someone about gettin’ help on it (her Modern Belief teacher), so it wasn’t too bad! But I had to go to tha store real quick to eat lunch, and then, I went to go get a $5 scratch-off, and I lost. However, I found a $20 winner in tha store I got it in, so I was HYPED UP about that (and I rarely find winners in Pennsylvania)! Due to I woke up at 5:15 AM this morning (to motivate me to write tha letter for my exam), I took a nap from 3:25 PM – about 6:15 PM. In tha middle of it, at 4:23 PM, Ya Boy Earl woke me up (LOL; it all good), and I told him about peepin’ out my R.I.P. Nu$$ie video I made (type “R.I.P. Nu$$ie Video” in Youtube to find it), and he’s still gotta check it out (he’s in it with a Dead Game Records shirt on no less). I also told him I was doin’ this review, and he was cool wit it. You know I gotta show him this when it’s finished! I told him that I heard him on Track 2 on here, and he said, “That’s tha only one I’m on,” so I guess we’ll be Earlless. It’s all good ‘cause we’re not GATESLESS! Lemme get back into this review, ya dig!
06. “Shit Could Get Real” Feat. Hound
Just when I’m about to continue tha review, I gotta eat dinner (eggplant w/ sauce & Ensure), lol. Can I get an actual focus here, lol? Anyway, looks like this finna be another BANGER! Likin’ tha title, as well as tha featured artist’s name, so high anticipation level on this one!! >>> Good thing it’s a “full” length (4:09 on tha length). Hearin’ tha beat intro, and it reminded me of Yung Sicka Feat. Young Ready & Reg “Keep Movin’” a lil’ when it came in. Hound sounds REAL GOOD on this shit; nice hook!! Ooh, great transition from hook to 1st verse, as it’s you on tha 1st verse! Nothin’ but RAW SHIT RIGHT HERE!!! Can’t deny that voice of yours that it’s SOOO GREAT for this underground Rap shit!!! DEFINITELY a NICE 1st verse, and I REALLY like that hook to tha fullest! Oh shit, Hound iz on tha 2nd verse!! Even though your verse was better, this dude DEFINITELY comin’ through wit some HOT SHIT!! He spit some REAL TIGHT shit here! Iz he from New Orleans (since he said “N.O. figga”)? DEFINITELY a nice verse, and just lovin’ tha hook more and more when I hear it!! It’s you on tha 3rd verse now, and it ain’t on some bullshit; REAL SHIT!! Anotha GREAT verse, as you just kept goin’ and goin’ wit tha flow and all tha shit you were spittin’!! And nice fade-out on this shit; what a jam here!! My Rating: 4.5
07. “Get In There” Feat. A-One
Heard A-One a few times (checks iTunes real quick… “But You’ll Never Know” from you and him, “Go Hard” from Young Ready, Yung Sicka and him, “I Luv Tha Streetz” from him, and “Go Dumb” from Max Minelli, J-Von, and him). Looks like this’ll be tha 5th joint (if I’m not mistaken) I’m gonna hear from him, and you KNOW I’m anticipated!! Let’s keep this HOT SHIT comin’ along!! *Switches from Ensure to water and comes back* >>> Can’t even complain wit that GREAT, full length of 4:04!! Hearin’ tha beginning, and it sounds like some great shit!! LOL @ tha “she gon suck it, then fuck it, and all that?!?” from you; that shit’s REAL TIGHT for tha background of tha hook!! Hearin’ tha 1st verse from A-One, and yeah, DEFINITELY think he a REAL nice, Baton Rouge rapper!! DEFINITELY did his thang on tha 1st verse; I’mma keep an eye out for A-One! That hook iz REAL catchy right here; good shit!! Let’s see this 2nd verse… Who else, Kevin Gates! Great shit, especially that part at 1:58! Anotha GREAT verse from you right there! Your part on tha 2nd ½ of tha hook (wit tha “’bout money…” part) iz okay, even though I prefer A-One’s “lemme get in there” part a lot better. Hearin’ tha 3rd verse, and it sounds like a “back n forth” type of verse, so I’m gonna rewind it ‘cause I fell behind… *Rewinds* It starts wit A-One (YES!), and it sounds like some TIGHT shit! LOL, just 4 bars? Hearin’ you on tha 2nd 4th, and it sounded great. Tha 3rd 4th from A-One sounded great again, and I also think tha last 4th from you was good too. This was a catchy joint right here! My Rating: 4.4
08. “Million Dollar Dream”
Lemme hear your “million dollar dream”, Gates… >>> Pretty nice start so far, we’ll see what will happen… Okay, beginning of tha verse sounds good. Oh, that was just tha hook. Now, I’m hearin’ tha 1st verse… Interesting lyrics again (“object of tha trap”), so you know I’ll really enjoy listenin’ to this! Too bad “tha fun lost you.” I’m on tha come-up, so you know I’m gonna be havin’ more fun in tha future, when I work wit some of these Louisiana peeps like you in tha future (in person). You did yo thang, fa’real, on tha 1st verse! Let’s hear this 2nd verse… Still sounds pretty good here. It just ended as soon as I started writin’ what I had to write, but it’s all good ‘cause I liked it. That hook iz good/catchy for tha title! LOL @ tha “where tha hell am I? / Who tha fuck are you?” imitation of people on tha 3rd verse. Interesting 3rd verse, and you’re just keepin’ this mixtape comin’ along! Oh, look who’s at tha end! He lied ‘cause he’s at tha end on more jointz… YA BOY EARL!! LOL… I’m GLAD he was at tha end, talkin’ about what he had to say about tha song itself, and its meaning! My Rating: 4.1
09. “Wanna Be Right”
I know you’ve been surrounded by violence and drugs your whole life, but I’m sure you’re doin’ some “right” things. This should be interesting to hear, so lemme just get into it! >>> Shorter length here (2:37), and it sounded kinda mainstreamish, but as soon as tha beat comes in, it doesn’t matter ‘cause you’re rappin’ on it! Interesting lyrics here; lol @ tha “wipe it off” lyrics. You’re DEFINITELY not on some typical shit like other rappers! Good job on tha 1st verse, and now, right onto tha 2nd verse: Jamaican version of Gates here a lil’, and still doin’ yo thang on this; you work great on this beat right here. Great job on tha 2nd verse here, and great lil’ part after tha 2nd verse. Yes, a 3rd verse here! More of an up-tempo attitude on this verse, and it sounded nice! Great job here, Gates! My Rating: 4.0
10. “Slow Jam”
Took a bathroom break, but I’m back for this shit. Anyway, not sure if this’ll be me here… >>> LOL @ one second longer than tha last joint (2:38 now). Not too bad now that I’m hearin’ you rap on tha beat. It sounds like you’re in a good mood from bein’ wit your girl wit how you sound on tha 1st verse. Tha verse iz great (REAL GREAT for a “slow jam”). Hearin’ tha 2nd verse, and it’s another GREAT verse for this song! Nice job on tha 2nd verse. Didn’t realize what tha hook was, but it fits tha song; good job here! My Rating: 3.9
½time: Well, WAY BETTER than what I expected here!! Some people that I saw online said that this was kinda disappointing (as well as tha production). I’m feelin’ EVERY single song so far (not ONE wack song (you don’t make wack music anyway))! I HOPE tha rest of this CD takes tha 1st ½ and keeps it consistent!!
11. “Money Over Here”
Seen a title like this many of times. Let’s see how you do on it, and start tha 2nd ½ (a.k.a. tha 3rd quarter) off! >>> Mainstream Rapish start, but no, it’s a Gus beat (where’s tha “I’m straight wit tracks, cuzin” part?)! Good thing you’re “talkin’ like an English class” (I don’t have to deal wit that shit during this semester ‘cause I had that class last semester, and I got a D ). Tha 1st verse was great, and that hook sounded okay/good at first, but tha “nuts hang/chain swang” part made it better! No wonder why you and Southpaw are cool: Y’all both get beats from Gus. And speakin’ of Gus, tha Gus in Pennsylvania (that animal that’s all over tha scratch-off lottery ticket ads) has been givin’ my mom luck, as she won $50, $20, and $20 on tha new $5 Gus ticket within tha last 3 dayz! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse, and that shit sounded good too; glad you’re on this beat! Good, there’s a 3rd verse… That “rob me” part: Sad that you got robbed that one time last Fall; that bitch-ass that did that to you should face a lot of shit!! Sounds like a GREAT hood verse for tha 3rd verse here! You doin’ yo thang wit this shit! Oh, and wit only 9 seconds left, Ya Boy (my boy) Earl came outta nowhere, and did his lil’ outro thang! My Rating: 4.1
12. “Head 2 My Toes”
Looks like this gon be a good swag song… >>> Ooh, a great, 4:16 length here! Sounds like some Egyptian music in tha beat! Hearin’ tha title, and it sounds like this gon be some good shit! I wonder, who did this beat (tight shit so far)? DEFINITELY sounds like a REAL GOOD 1st verse here wit a GREAT attitude! Gotta luv tha “on them jiggaz” part! GREAT job on tha 1st verse. A lil’ typical wit tha hook (when it repeats), but it catches on for me and this track. Hearin’ this 2nd verse now, and it’s more on tha females! Great job on this verse too; glad you’re “peoples’ entertainment.” Hearin’ tha 3rd verse, and it’s more clubby this time. Glad you mentioned Ya Boy Earl as you said, “I ain’t listenin’ to shit if DJ Earl ain’t spinnin’.” I’m lookin’ forward to bein’ a DJ one day (in Louisiana; prolly Baton Rouge). I would only play NOTHIN’ but GREAT, exclusive, underground Louisiana music! I would make Baton Rouge get more retarded than retarded! Great 3rd verse too, and I see that you mentioned “it’s great on tha tracks if Gus made it.” If Gus made this beat, I wanna add/contact him about some of these reviews and shit I be doin’! He a GREAT Baton Rouge producer!! Hit me up, Gus! My Rating: 4.2
EDIT: In 2017, I also found out that this was produced by Doe-Doe, as well!
13. “All About The Money” Feat. Malachi
Already, only 2 songs later, another “money” song… Don’t know tha gender of tha featured artist (I’m guessin’ male, but female on hook?), so we’ll find out now. >>> Scared to continue after hearin’ tha beginning… Okay, almost sounded like Ron Browz jackin’ wit tha auto-toneish beginning, but tha hook sounded better; almost sounded like Famous Stranger from New Orleans. Okay start… I like tha “suckin’ on my teeth” part; that’s different. Hearin’ tha 2nd verse, and it’s already better wit tha “sellin’ drugs” part. So, “sellin’ drugs iz borin’,” now? I don’t know… Better verse here. LOL @ Ya Boy Earl at tha end… Showin’ luv to Malachi? Nothin’ but support from YBE here… We’ll see what that dude has for future songs. Well, I thought it was gonna be a completely auto-tone song, but it turned out better. Due to No. 11, this joint didn’t worry me too much, as I felt that it was just a “bonus”. My Rating: 3.6
14. “I Like The Way She Movin’” Feat. Malachi
What tha…? Again, already? I can bet’cha Ya Boy Earl’ll be at tha end of this joint too. I ain’t anticipated for this, so we’ll see what happens… >>> Now, it’s more of a Reggae intro… He sounds almost tha same here, but better. This’ll be a better song than No. 13. Hearin’ tha 1st verse, and you know, wit that hook, you gotta have your Jamaican style on this! Sounded real short, and just went to Malachi; nice collaborating verse. Oh, and speakin’ of Reggae, looks like he said, “Reggae iz all I play,” lol. Tha 2nd verse startin’ now… Your voice iz just SO FUCKIN’ INCREDIBLE!! Gotta respect tha rappers wit dreads. You did yo thang on this verse (or should I say ½ verse ‘cause Malachi’s on tha 2nd ½ of it). It sounds like this iz catchin’ on better, luckily. Now, WHO ELSE was at tha end? LOL!! Ya Boy… EARL!! What’s tha “holla front” part that he says? I found out tha “Chicken & Watermellon” part from his Facebook blog, but yeah, anyway, great catch-on joint. Sounds like a much better single than tha “My Block” song wit that fake Akon hook! My Rating: 3.9
15. “What Up Homie”
I couldn’t’ve asked for a better title! Neva really see a title like this, so I’m really anticipated!! >>> Only 2:18 on tha length? Beat intro sounds different/REAL NICE! More of a lyrical type of song, again. Interesting/great 1st verse. You know I LOVE tha hook!! Interesting hook too; great shit here! Let’s see how much tha 2nd verse can uplift me more… Good “sittin’ in tha trap” type of shit! Yes, you know I love hearin’ this right now!! More great shit wit tha “blowin’ killa behind tha tent” part! Doin’ yo thang on this shit! VERY INTERESTING to hear a song about your boy bein’ in jail; hope he gets out soon! Speaking of which, FREE BLU BLACK!!!!!!!!!! Blu Black’s a Baton Rouge rapper I support a whole lot (as well as workin’ wit him a lil’). My Rating: 4.3
16. “Wreckless”
Look at these GREAT titles! This should be just as interesting as “What Up Homie”! >>> Ya Boy Earl type of intro (almost expected him to be on tha No. 14 joint’s intro). Another pretty good beat, and sounds pretty good. You got a son? Cool… At least you’re not too young. SMH @ you that you “lost your money gamblin’;” that ain’t me, especially since I lost only $5, and got $20 back today! You did yo thang on that GREAT 1st verse! Interesting hook here too, wit tha mix of tha Jamaican style. Let’s hear this 2nd verse… Thumbs up to tha “couple blocks of purp smoke.” GREAT 2nd verse here; great wit tha “sell a lot of cocaine.” We got Mr. “Hustla” Gates here! Let’s here tha 3rd verse here… More “gamblin’” shit wit tha “Poker game.” Of course, forgot to mention, TIGHT mixtape cover (I actually mentioned that in your picture comments of tha front cover to this CD)! I LOVE anything that has to do wit gamblin’ (this bein’ 11 years now I’ve been gamblin’). LOL @ tha “Honey, I Shrunk The Kids” part; unexpected, but only you would come up wit some GREAT shit like that to bring up in your songs! LOL @ tha Earl at tha end too! Yeah, “play it ova and ova and ova again!” GREAT outro from Ya Boy Earl, and some more great shit for my iPod right here! My Rating: 4.2
17. “No Façade”
What’s that F word in tha title, lol? I just typed it in word, and it made tha C turn into a “ç”. Well, I see tha suggestions tha word gave me in Word, so we’ll see how you make it into a song! >>> Good “fulla dat shit” part in tha beginning, and was almost unsure about tha beat. I don’t know why I say that ‘cause as soon as you come in, it’s on point automatically! Good 1st verse, and tha hook was a few seconds long, lol. Still don’t really know tha title definition, but it’s okay. Hearin’ tha 2nd verse, and it rolls pretty nice. Heard tha “fiya weed” part, and that made it a good part! Already on tha 3rd verse in only 1.5 minutes into tha song… Good 3rd verse, and this joint sounds nice. Once again, another different song done great by you! A 25 second fade-out here… My Rating: 3.9
18. “Get Us Rich”
A better version of a “money” title… I wonder how good this’ll be… >>> Ooh, good violin part in tha intro! I wonder, who did this beat? Sounds like this shit gon go hard! Tha “blood got me pissin’ my pants” part sounded raw! Sounds like a NICE verse here, and you did yo thang! Hearin’ tha anticipating hook… DEFINITELY on some real shit right here! Good thing it took a while for tha title to come up; great job! Sounds like another “on some real shit” type of verse for tha 2nd verse! Tha 3rd verse iz soundin’ great too! Hearin’ your lyrical shit iz tha type of lyrical shit I WANNA hear! LOL @ tha “Wayne, I don’t care if you a prostitute or not” line. A fade-out? Tha ending would’ve sounded better if it ended cold. But yeah, a lot of anticipation just emerged outta nowhere for me wit this joint!! My Rating: 4.3
19. “What U Doing Ma”
Looks like a female song… Let’s see how this one gon sound… >>> A Ya Boy Earl intro… Sounds like a real fast beat… Fast rappin’ too… Okay, not bad so far, but I can’t hate on it ‘cause it sounds good for me. You sound more turned on doing tha end of tha 1st ½ of tha hook. Not much to say about tha 1st verse as it went quick, so now, it’s tha 2nd verse… Sounds better this time. This can be a club song, but there are much better songs by you that are not intended club songs, but sound better in tha club. Not tha type of song I’d hear from you, but it passes for me. My Rating: 3.7
20. “One Of Us”
How are we gonna end this? BTW, I’m glad for all tha original beats on here! >>> Sounds like it gon be a slow ending… Hate to hear about tha “Winter clothes,” as up in Northeast PA, it’s FINALLY gettin’ warmer (it peaked at 50 degrees today! ). Tha 1st verse was pretty good. Hearin’ tha hook, and it sounds like you got a smile on your face; at least you in a good mood. Let’s hear this 2nd verse… Glad, in your case, “she gon ride tha pipe.” Tha 2nd verse sounded pretty good too. I like tha “weed I’m puffin’” part in tha hook. Let’s hear tha final “All In” verse here… Sorry for tha “stupid decision,” that “got you wounded and injured.” Make sure you make REAL good decisions, and stay on guard! It sounded like your attitude got better during tha end of tha verse. Well, great job on tha last verse. Ooh, at least 40 seconds of Ya Boy Earl at tha end! Yeah, there was “a lot on this mixtape.” Yeah, “doin’ this shit in tha streets of BR.” Speakin’ of “streets of BR,” “Streets Of BR” (tha song) might get some airplay wit me… I know it a lil’ older now, but I was gonna pick that song to play for February 2009, but I chose “My Block” instead, and I regret it. My Rating: 3.8
Overall: End Time: 2.26.2009 @ 8:58 PM. Well, I feel good now that tha mixtape ended, so your music left a good taste in me! DEFINITELY another GREAT mixtape, even though “All Or Nuthin’” was better for me! Will this get a nomination on my 2009 Awards? Find out in December 2009/January 2010! You DEFINITELY come through wit ALL tha hot shit when it comes to rappin’ and choosin’ tha tracks you spit on! Even though no songs exceeded a 4.5 rating wit me, look at how many I wound up lovin’ (4.0 or higher ratings)!! I actually had lower anticipation for this mixtape due to tha unexpected buzz of “My Block”. I’m glad that song didn’t make it on here, but I suggest that you hire someone else on tha hook. Hearin’ tha hook sounds NOTHIN’ like Akon (sounds like a dude tryin’ to be Akon, but fails badly). Your verses on that song were GUTTA (of course), but yeah, get someone else for tha hook (or even tha real Akon/Akon voice), and then promote it. With that also, I thought this was gonna sound more mainstream, but thank God there wasn’t even one mainstream artist featured!! Keep doin’ yo thang, and I hope you, Ya Boy Earl, Gus, Hound, your manager, and everyone else (especially at Dead Game/Bottomline Records) love this review! How can you NOT like it when it’s 11 pages long!! Keep that underground, raw, gutta, Baton Rouge sound in you forever!!!!!
