Review #171: Soulja Boy Tell 'Em "iSouljaBoyTellem"

Reviewed on 2.13.2009 (Review No. 171)


What up, it’s Friday tha 13th, lol! And for this Friday tha 13th, I figured I’d use this time to review somethin’ that I think gone make tha black cat “RAHH, BITCH, RAHH!!!!!” LMFAO! Yeah, so I just gon get into it: Here’s my review for Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em “iSouljaBoyTellem”! Got VERY LOW ANTICIPATION for this! Start Time: 11:00 PM | Video Game Playing: The Legend Of Zelda – Ocarina Of Time (for Super Nintendo)


Quick Note: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0. Each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself with 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) so 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.


01. “I’m ‘Bout Tha Stax (Intro)”
I don’t think Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em should use tha word “the” as “tha” ‘cause he ain’t that good to represent it like that. Oh well, let’s hear what he did on this intro… >>> What’s wit tha Drumma Boy in tha beginning? Did he produce it, or did you jack it? At least this doesn’t sound annoying like your previous CD. Decent hook. You need to work on your delivery on how you rap ‘cause it doesn’t fit exactly. I have a feelin’ you jacked that Drumma Boy sound effect ‘cause I thought you produce all your songs? A much, much better intro than tha last intro on your last CD (wit all those “yuuugh!”’s. My Rating: 3.3


02. “Bird Walk”
Now, we’re goin’ tha wrong way… FUCKIN’ HATE THIS FUCKIN’ SONG!!!!!!!!!! AHH!!!!!!!!!! It’s not even Rap, it’s just noise!!!!!!!!!! I thought you were done wit these gay-ass Dance-Rap songs? Weren’t you “growin’ up”? Just a TERRIBLE, REPEATITIVE hook wit a WAY TOO worked up flow on this shit. Those lyrics are so fuckin’ stupid… Boo @ tha “Disney” line on tha 3rd verse! :td Three verses? WTF does this need 3 verses? Gotta give props to my Modern Belief female teacher: “Rap music had a message back in tha 80’s; not like Game, 50 Cent.” That quote refers to shit like this as well, even though she ain’t know who SBTE iz. This was such a useless song. My Current Rating: 1.0


03. “Turn My Swag On”
Hopefully this iz tha best song on this CD, and tha end of tha real good songs on here. Not that this iz real good, it’s pretty catchy, but tha title/topic just iz a typical, stereotypical type of song that everyone puts in their own songs, only addressin’ it as a title. Plus, I rather someone else have this song/beat than you. Tha flowin’ iz a lil’ gay/semi-annoying, but cool at tha same time a lil’. You’re WAY too into tha technology, as to where you gotta put it into your songs, LMAO… This song entered my Top 10 Countdown at No. 10 one day, and hit my playlist too. I guess it had tha potential to get spins wit me, even though it’s very lil’ right now. But anywayz, decent lyrics (a lil’ too typical), and not bad song. My Current Rating: 3.8


04. “Gucci Bandana” Feat. Gucci Mane & Shawty Lo
Now, some features outside of Arab. Arab betta be on this CD too. Let’s hear what we got here… >>> Typical jackin’ from you, as you just take tha Bow Wow “gucci bandana” part from that Music Choice Rap PLAYED OUT song “Marco Polo.” Hook iz too boring/repetitive. Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse, and it’s pretty yucky. Bad lyrics from you as they suck. Gucci on tha 2nd verse, and I couldn’t even say anything… Shawty Lo on tha 3rd verse, and still tha non-lyrical lyrics. What’s wit his whisperinish voice? Another useless song. My Rating: 1.6


05. “Eazy”
Tha word has a “z” instead of an “s”… Are you obsessin’ tha sound of it on this? >>> “Ish”? How about “shit”! Sounds like a hook that just bores me. Your attitude iz too strong on some of these tracks; doesn’t fit you. Yeah, you “make this ‘ish’ look ‘eazy’,” ‘cause people like you wanna make Rap not fun anymore. That’s why I stay listenin’ to my underground, Louisiana shit, ya dig! And you’re proud of makin’ Rap easy? I don’t see where you’re goin’ wit these songs… My Rating: 1.7


06. “Kiss Me Thru The Phone” Feat. Sammie
Beat sounds like it’s a down south beat from :00-:03. Then, that part from :04-:06, UGH! SO FUCKIN’ GAY!!! This another TERRIBLE song, and even worse for me to hear! WTF @ Party 105.3 beastin’ on this (it’s No. 2 on their playlist)?!? That makes me HATE IT MORE!!! Lyrics are too babyish! :td :td Tha dayz of babyish/kids singin’ songs have been done wit. Ewe, why are you imitating tha beat? I would NEVA put this on my playlist or give it spins!! I can’t believe females would co-sign this song! My Current Rating: 1.1


07. “Booty Got Swag (Donk Part 2)”
Here you go wit tha “swag” again… Braggin’ ‘bout it too much. I’m speechless wit this… >>> Hearin’ tha first few seconds, and I was like, “not a Rap beat?” Tha 1st “Donk” sounded better, even though this sounds like it’s just as good almost. It’s so BAD that you had to say, “she got a donk Part 2” in tha song; WTF? :td 2:08 in, and I feel bored… I’m not really payin’ attention to this anymore; wack. Really, how you gon put “booty” and “swag” in tha same sentence/tha title? My Rating: 1.4


08. “Rubber Bands”
I read tha negative reviews on Amazon.com about this CD. I forgot what was said about this song… >>> Did you steal that “listen to tha track…” also? Sounds like an annoying beat… Still kinda bad/boring, but this iz better than a bunch of those other songs. How’d you get tha chance to release another album? :confused Lyrics in tha verses are just bleh… Just that “somewhat catchy” hook helps here. My Rating: 3.4


½time: Well, bad (as I predicted). I don’t predict anything happenin’ next.


09. “Hey You There”
I have a bad feelin’ about this… (according to reviews I’ve read on this song) >>> Oh no, a “snap” beat… WTF? This iz what Late 2008 music sounds like? C’mon, it’s not 2005! SMH @ tha title! Almost doesn’t sound like you on this, Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em. Yeah, this was tha song people complained about tha “farted” part. Yeah, Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em, in my opinion, iz “too young for clubs” if he talkin’ ‘bout that shit. :td It doesn’t even sound like there’s a beat here; this iz rappin’?!? My Rating: 1.0


10. “Yamaha Mama” Feat. Sean Kingston
Oh no, tha big teddy bear’s on this… How did this collab come across? What iz that title? Tell me it’s a remake ‘cause of SK bein’ on it… >> Oh no, 4:38 on tha length? :( What’s wit tha phone number in this? :confused What am I listenin’ to? Sounds like an Akon hook. Such a useless song right here! Shit, 1:50 iz left on tha length! My Rating: 1.0


11. “Wit My Yums On”
What he braggin’ about wit these shoes? >>> Good, it’s 1:10 shorter! Gay hook here wit tha “gucci bandana” shit goin’ on here. Hook iz just repetitive and boring/stupid! Another useless song that I have no comment on. My Rating: 1.0


12. “Go Head” Feat. Juney Boondata
What’s wit tha featured artist’s name? >>> Maybe a better beat, but too much “g-g-g-g…” g-g-g-goin’ on in tha hook; sounds like a baby. Hearin’ tha “turn my swag on” part in here; why you gotta jack yourself? I HATE when people jack they own shit! It’s like, they ain’t got anything to rap about, so they just jack themselves? Wow, you even talk about tha “bird walk” in here too. You’re makin’ my ass hurt, SBTE! My Rating: 1.0


13. “Shoppin’ Spree” Feat. Gucci Mane & Yo Gotti
Why would Yo Gotti even wanna collaborate with you? Well, I have a feelin’ tha 1.0 rating streak gon disappear for a sec… >>> Uh oh, a long song (4:46 on tha length). Pretty good beat (might be tha best one on here). Tha hook iz not bad. Good, a better sounding here. A better verse from you on this, and tha hook iz one that makes some sense at least. Gucci on tha 2nd verse, and just non-stop “brag-rappin’” wit him on tha verse. Gotti had a not bad verse on tha 3rd verse. This will be close between this and “Turn My Swag On”. I might just rate this my 2nd favorite on this CD, and “TMSO” as my favorite. My Rating: 3.8


14. “Soulja Boy Tellem”
A self-titled song… What to expect… >>> Soundin’ like a baby in tha beginning… Nothin’ but your “SBTE” sample goin’ through tha hook and I HATE hearin’ it! :td Yeah, “your lyrics get recycled,” but “your lyrics are garbage” as well. I didn’t see anything goin’ on wit this song also. My Rating: 1.0


15. “Whoop Rico” Feat. Show Stoppas
>>> Already can tell I’m gonna hate it wit tha “dancin’” part in tha beginning. It almost sounded like a “jacked version” of “Knuck If You Buck” in tha beat. WTF @ tha “crank my Scooby Doo” from that Show Stoppas dude??? Does everyone have to be a rapper? I mean, this ain’t even rappin’…; this iz just pathetic shit! How you gon “hurt they feelins” while dancin’? WTF…! Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em, this song ain’t NEVA
”gon come on in tha club!” If it did, people would prolly remove it! Oh, and, what did this song talk about?!? My Rating: 1.0


16. “I Pray (Outro)”
Don’t even tell me you gon be serious now… >>> 5:48 on tha length? Wow, why do you sound like T.I.? Did you say, “nigga?” I thought you were clean wit this CD/your CDs? *Lays in bed while tha song plays due to tiredness of this CD* Well, I don’t see anything special wit this song… It’s a lil’ better than a bunch of tha shit on here. My Rating: 2.1


Overall: End Time: 12:24 AM. Well, I did a review in tha past that was worse than this, but this iz just as bad/bad like tha “Souljaboytellem.com” CD. That CD was actually better than this. Did I love any of tha songs on here? NO! Not 1 song had a 4.0 or higher rating! Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em, please either stop rappin’, stop bein’ tough in your raps, stop rappin’ about stupid dances, or just do Humor-Rap music (like “Yahhh!”). There were 7 1.0 ratings… My God, that’s ½ tha CD almost!
