Reviewed on 5.22.2009 (Review #208)

Frankie's back today wit anotha review! Yup, keepin' this marathon goin'... This iz tha final 1992 CD I finna review, so here it goes! My review fa Master P "Mama's Bad Boy"! Start Time: 12:04 PM | End Time: 1:17 PM


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!

 

 

© 2009 CD Review (Review #208) reviewed on 5.22.2009 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.


01. "Shoot 'Em Up"
Looks like this'll be a betta CD than tha 1st one; lemme see... >>> Sounded like a rough intro, lol! Tha 1st verse sounded good, and tha hook iz soundin' good too; a great start here. Tha 2nd verse was good too on this shit. At tha time, you didn't "sell much money" from doin' certain shit, but you evolved to become an N.O. icon. Feelin' tha 3rd verse too. Great song fa a 1st song on this CD! My Rating: 4.3


02. "Psycho Rhymes"
Lookin' forward! >>> LOL at tha beat just stoppin', and that hook that sounds good. Now, tha beat slowly iz comin' back at approximately :59! Finally,tha 1st verse at 1:37, which iz ova tha 1/2 point by a second. Not much to say... LOL @ tha like Big Band sound at tha end. My Rating: 3.3


03. "Bloody Murder"
Hopefully this title'll bring some luck to me! >>> Sounded like a good 1st verse, and made tha hook (even though there's barely any words in tha hook) pretty anticipating fa tha 2nd verse (wit tha title)! Good 2nd verse right there, and let's see what's left of this... I like tha 3rd verse too. Sounds like a "bloody" ending goin' on here wit them "bitches" actin' up. Great last 3 seconds! My Rating: 3.8


04. "Fuck A Bitch 'Cuz I'm Paid"
Lemme hear this one. Looks like it goin' rough again wit tha content... >>> A real, nice old soundin' beat here. Good start on tha song here. Tha 2nd verse sounded good too on this shit. Tha rest of it sounded good. LOL @ tha ending. My Rating: 3.6


05. "Eyes Of A Killer"
Anotha one of them "killa" type titles! >>> LOL @ tha length bein' 2:25 (Baton Rouge area code), meanwhile, it's N.O. right here, lol! Pretty decent start here. Tha hook iz definitely catchy wit tha "candy/cocaine!" Kinda short, but that hook kept it goin'! LOL @ tha shooting at tha end! My Rating: 3.9


06. "I'm Going Big Time"
What to expect? >>> Slow/okay beat here. Tha 1st verse was not bad, and tha hook sounds pretty good. Hearin' tha 2nd verse now, and it's soundin' betta. I like tha "my boyz are outta crack... a kilo" part at 2:02! Nice and long 2nd verse here, and it finally ended at 3:04; good shit. My Rating: 3.6


07. "Mama's Bad Boy"
What can I hear from tha title track? >>> Not really my type, but sad story goin' on wit tha 1st verse. Sorry to hear about all this shit that's goin' on. Same thing wit tha 2nd verse, although I respected tha 1st verse better. I don't like tha guy singin'... LOL @ Ludacris usin' this sample that's used in this song fa his 2004 "Diamond In The Back". I'll give a lyrical rating as a bonus here since it ain't really fa me. Lyrical Rating: 4.2 | My Rating: 3.4


½time: Sounds like a betta CD than tha 1st one, fa sho. Good job, P, and you got a WHOLE LOT mo shit in my marathon so I finna see what's good wit tha rest of this CD fa now!


08. "Ooh Shit"
Looks like a surprised title! I wonder what'll happen wit only 2:46 on tha length? >>> LOL, it was kinda random wit me listenin' 'til tha "there's nothin' wrong wit me fuckin' you" part wit tha "Marvin Gaye tape." LOL @ tha REAL sexual rhymes in tha 2nd verse! LOL, interesting... Didn't know what I was goin' ta say, but it turned out that tha shit was GREAT! LMFAO @ tha ending (before it was just tha beat); PAINFUL huh, lol!! My Rating: 4.2


09. "Watch Your Ass"
A lil' ova 2 minutes longer than tha last joint (this iz 4:58). Looks like you're givin' tha person/listener/etc. a warning, so I'm lookin' forward! >>> Sounds like a GREAT intro, lol! Yea, "dank passin'!" Tha beat iz nice and fast, as well as tha rhymes bein' nice and fast too, so this gon sound good. Good 1st verse, and tha "dank passin'" after tha verse sounded GREAT to hear too! I HOPE one of tha upcoming verses have drug related thingz goin' on!! Tha beat slowed down a lil' (more to tha relaxin'/smokin' type), and it sounds like a lotta "fiends" swarmin' through tha hoods in tha 2nd verse. Now, tha official hook, and it sounds good too; nice 2nd verse also (forgot to mention). I like tha 3rd verse too on this; tha hook iz great to hear once again. Actually, it's definitely catchy now; great shit! My Rating: 4.1


10. "Premeditated Murder"
Anotha "murder" track! Definitely lookin' forward to this! >>> Iz this just an instrumental? It would've sounded better if there was rappin' on it! I guess good intermission track, although why tha anticipating title? My Rating: 3.6


11. "Dope, Pussy & Money"
Back to that 4:58 length again! Looks like a typical Rap person's title, so lemme see what we got, Master P 1992 style, lol. >>> Ooh, just like tha No. 9 joint, a "dank" start, lol. Tha 1st verse sounds REAL good, as it's tha "dope" part of tha title! Great 1st verse, and I like your reaction to gettin' in tha "police car and gettin' out tomorrow." Now, tha 2nd verse iz here, and it's tha "pussy" part of tha title wit tha "fuckin'" goin' on! A REAL GREAT 2nd verse, and it sounds like this song has LOTS of positives to gimme a high rating! Glad you had tha drug related in tha 1st verse, and then tha sexualness in tha 2nd verse! Just like tha 1st 2 verses, tha 3rd verse has tha "money" part in it, so thumbs up! Glad you kept it 300 wit tha title (yea, kept it 300, not 100, 'cause you kept it 100 3x)!!! Maybe tha beat outro could've been a lil' shorter, but nice beat ending either way. Plus, tha beat was good too. My Rating: 4.5


12. "Rich & Dangerous (T.R.U.)"
I thought TRU were featured, but I was wrong (it's just a part of tha title). It 3 minutes, 4 seconds less than tha last song (LOL @ bein' like a whole entire song length less about, lol), so lemme see what you can squeeze in here... >>> Sounds more like tryin' to survive tha strugglin' goin' on here. It sounds like your voice iz angry on this one, and it sounds great! Tha 2nd verse was good too; surprised you squeezed a 2nd verse in only a 1:54 song length. This joint was good though, so thumbs up! My Rating: 4.0


13. "Trust Nobody" Feat. E-A-Ski
I think this iz tha 1st featured artist in my marathon, so thumbs up on havin' that to be known by (other featured artists on other CDs were not sourced if I'm not mistaken; yours iz sourced)! I wanna hear tha way this shit sounds 'cause based off tha title, it looks like tha continuation of tha last joint! >>> It starts off pretty good without havin' an intro. Angry vocals comin' from E-A-Ski, and it sounds pretty good. Not sure of tha beat, although it ain't that bad... You're comin' pretty strong on tha 2nd verse here; nice job. A good 3rd verse too as you kept it real. My Rating: 3.7


14. Shouts
And to end it off, we're goin' to have shout outs? Cool. Tha last CD I reviewed (Lower Level Organization's "Wanted By Five-O, Feared By Most") had a LONG LIST of shout outs last time, so we'll see what yours gon be like in 3:14 (theirs was at least double your length when they did theirs)! >>> I like tha intro wit tha "out this muthafucka like a 9mm." Sorry it a sad way to end it fa you. I hate to see someone sad, and sorry that you had to lose someone. At least you're not rappin' sadly 'cause I don't like to review depressing music. Sad ending, and sad beat. My Rating: N/A


Overall: Well, it's exactly 1:17 PM, and tha CD just ended. This iz definitely betta than your 1st album, although your 1st album's most rated song I rated (tha "Dana, You Can Bang Her" joint) got a higher top rating of 4.7 than any song on this CD. Either way, it all good 'cause this CD iz a plus! Keep doin' yo thang, P.
