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. "Its Last Call Intro/It's Whatever"
There are 2 "its/it's" in tha title here. Although you have tha "Its" in tha album title correct, you have it wrong on Track 1 here, so that's ID Error #1. Anyway, let's see how we start thangz off... >>> Nothin' much ta say about tha intro, so let's see how tha song gon be... Tha beat iz decent here, but it seems like I'm gonna be more interested in your rhymes. Good job on tha 1st verse; all tha rhymes were pretty good. I like how tha verse ended wit tha title; 90's style. Now, let's hear tha 2nd verse here... Nice "green house effect" part, and tha flowin' iz aight. I like your "straight A's" part, and you had a betta verse here. Tha verse here also ending wit tha title. Not bad fa a start, yet it's good that it introduced you and your answer to anyone (including haterz) iz "it's whatever." My Rating: 3.6
02. "V.I.P."
You know I like titles wit "V.I.P." in 'em, and wit 4:26 on tha length, this should be a good one! >>> Tha beat intro iz pretty nice and catchy here; anticipation slowly rises! Wow, tha beat sounds real hot during tha hook! Good job on tha hook, and now, here goes tha 1st verse... Not bad, as it sounded good for tha topic. What was wit tha quietness in tha vocals during like tha last few lines? Nice start to tha 2nd verse wit tha "rhymes, they flow like water" line. Nice 2nd verse, and tha vocal thing happened again on tha last few lines on tha 2nd verse too... Tha 3rd verse iz keepin' it consistent too; I like tha "calm down like a piece of ice" part. Good job on tha 3rd verse; again, there was that vocal problem wit tha last few lines in tha verse. I'm glad this ended wit tha beat though 'cause it sounds hot. My Rating: 4.2
03. "Rep Where You From (Remix)" Feat. Hoolz & Kal-J
Ooh, a nice title here wit 2 new cats; lookin' forward ta this one! >>> Ooh, nice beat start! Ooh, "destination: New Orleans;" lookin' forward here... Sounds like a whole lotta rappin' here wit tha same, repetitive flow goin' on here from that dude. Wow, tha hook iz tight! I like that "rep ... where ... you from!" part (how it sounds) in tha hook! Now, "destination: Indianapolis;" let's see here... Yea, that dude on tha 2nd verse does sound like a "homerun hitta" wit that verse! Now, "destination: Atlanta;" it's you, so let's see... Pretty nice verse here, although tha best verse here was tha 2nd one. Good job wit tha triple destinations! Yea, "that's a remix right here, boi." I like your ending wit "tha beat fadin', dawg." My Rating: 4.4
04. "What It Hit For"
I hear this sayin' here and there; let's see it as a song title... >>> I like tha beat here (nice, consistent production goin' on). Tha hook iz catchy too; I like your slow flow on this shit. Nice 1st verse, and tha hook iz definitely holdin' it down here. Nice job on tha short 2nd verse. Even a 3rd verse fit here... I like tha "I keep burnin' tha flow" part; nice job. My Rating: 4.0
05. The New DJ (Skit)
Wonder what this iz about... >>> LOL @ tha voice on tha 2nd 1/2 when tha dude got punched or some shit and started winin'! My Rating: N/A
06. "I Go In" Feat. Kimble Wright & G-Eazy
Ooh, G-Eazy I know; he a cool white boy. Let's see what y'all all got goin' on here... >>> 5:00 flat on tha length... You make tha intro anticipating... Ooh, nice beat! It sounds nice and upbeat, as well as how you "do you" and "stackin' papa like loose-leaf" on this shit! Nice hook, and tha 1st verse iz DEFINITELY startin' off pretty nice! Definitely a nice verse from you, keepin' tha flow hot, as well as ending tha verse wit tha "like John Legend, gimme tha green light" part to end tha verse! Ooh, Kimble iz a dude (I thought it would be a female 'cause of tha "Kim" in his name), so this should be good on tha Rap tip... Yea, he deliverin' some nice shit here! "Victory iz in his blood," so he doin' tha damn thang! Nice verse, fa real! Nice ending to it wit tha screwed vocals! Here comes G-Eazy, nearly soundin' like Wayne on tha 3rd verse here... Nice "on tha grind" type of lyrics here from him; good shit! I like his "tryna separate those can and cannot rhyme" part a lot! Also, tha "leavin' shit stains on every track I wreck" part was nice too; GREAT catchy verse from him!! Ooh, nice long beat outro here! My Rating: 4.5
07. "Bottle Of Patron" Feat. DVS
Let's see how good or okay this one'll be... >>> Ooh, tha beat kicked-in at :15 wit that sound effect it used ta get my attention! It even added some mo shit at :24! DVS doin' a pretty nice job on tha 1st verse here. Ooh, tha hook iz catchy; nice job on it! An okay 2nd verse came from you on this; not bad. Ooh, tha 3rd verse iz startin' off pretty nice wit DVS and tha "smell tha skunk" part. Not bad joint here; it was catchy, so thumbs up. My Rating: 4.1
½time: Well, a lotta new music that I be reviewin' iz catchin' me by surprise, and you're now a part of it!! It seems like I'm enjoyin' yo shit fo a start here.

08. "Doin' My Thang" Feat. G-Ni The Chosen One
I like tha title here, and tha featured person has a cool name; lookin' forward again! >>> Interesting beat intro again! Tha hook iz pretty catchy here; nice undaground sounding. Not bad on tha 1st verse here; tha rappin' iz listenable. Here comes that G-Ni dude on tha 2nd verse... Nice start here! Gotta feel these featured people on all tha tracks that have featured artists! Ooh, he's on tha 3rd verse too? Cool shit. Up, a split verse 'cause now, you're on tha 2nd 1/2 of tha 3rd verse here... Doin' an aight job, although I rather've wanted G-Ni ta continue tha verse. Catchy song right here wit a nice job done from G-Ni The Chosen One! My Rating: 3.9
09. Play It Anyway (Skit)
Looks like a follow-up from tha last skit... >>> Same winin' from tha last skit, so I'm right, lol. LOL @ "DJ Crack." LOL @ tha "if ya don't like it" repeated! LOL also @ tha "wait for it... wait for it!" Wonder what tha next song gon be? My Rating: N/A
10. "Never Gonna Be Me"
What do we have here? >>> Pretty good beat again, nice lil' rappin' from you on here fa a start. Not bad on tha 1st verse, but tha hook iz catchy; thumbs up on bein' original wit how it sounded/tha lyrics in it! You said, "Michael Jackson," in here. Gotta say, "R.I.P.," ta him right now; he all ova tha radio and TV's. Glad he had an impact tha way he did! Not bad on tha 2nd verse also. Okay 3rd verse too. Still really feelin' that hook. My Rating: 3.8
11. "Another Level"
I like when people have titles like this; lookin' forward! >>> Decent rappin', somewhat okay flow, okay lyrics, but nice lil' beat effects goin' on here. I felt like tha hook came outta nowhere; not bad here. This iz somewhat decent fa me, as I don't have much ta say. Tha beat seems like it's capturin' tha track. Not bad 2nd verse here, as it sounded a lil' betta. Oh, no 3rd verse on this either... My Rating: 3.5
12. "It's Real Talk"
A typical title, so let's see how it sounds in your hands... >>> Anotha decent start here... No comment on tha 1st verse, and tha hook iz aight here; glad it's catchy at least. Somewhat better on tha 2nd verse, but like tha last song, I don't have much ta say... This one had a 3rd verse, and it was slightly better... My Rating: 3.5
13. Spit Game (Skit)
I like tha name of tha skit, so let's see how it gon sound vs. tha otha 2... >>> Yuck, WTF? Why an Auto-Tune? Especially usin' it and sayin' "Auto-Tune?" I wanted you to make fun of it, but whoeva's on tha skit iz just makin' it bullshitty. Bad skit, fa real! My Rating: N/A
14. "Don't Know How" Feat. Alex White
Let's see this song... >>> Not tha kinda beat intro I like. Sounds like shy lyrics in tha hook... Not bad on tha 1st verse from you. This iz kinda too mellow fa me, but I don't think it's that bad fa me. Nice start to tha 2nd verse wit tha "Keith Sweat 'Twisted'/braids twisted" part. Not that bad of a song like this fa me, so I'll give it credit. My Rating: 3.3
15. "What I'm About"
Looks like an intro title while it's an outro song, lol. Let's see what you're "about" for one last time... >>> Anotha slow beat... Not really my style, but I'll listen anyway. I like tha lyrics goin' on here in tha 1st verse about "college," "jealousy," and other shit goin' on here. Nothin' really ta say about tha hook... Tha 2nd verse iz better here fa me. I like tha "green in my locker" and shit like that; great lyrics goin' on here wit tha 2nd verse. Yea, tha lyrics were good, but tha rest of tha shit on here wasn't really fa me; sorry. Should've had a better flow, better beat, and better hook. Thanx for all tha info on tha song though (what you were spittin' in tha lyrics). My Rating: 2.6
Overall: Well, I'm quite impressed wit how this review went.
