(Review #276)
Watz good? It’s ya boy FrankieThaLuckyDog here. Got somethin’ anticipatin’ in
my handz right now, ya heard me!! After waitin’ a while fa somethin’ to arrive,
I got SOMETHIN’ IN THA MAIL!! Shit yea!! I was REAL happy!!! For my muthafuckin’
boy Duce (and his boy Kooley), a.k.a. 747, it’s tha REAL
HOT “Flight Skool” CD!! Not only that, but it’s a DOUBLE DISC, so
although I thought it would occur in my Louisiana Reviewz Marathon, it’s
occurin’ for tha FIRST TIME wit me right now!!! It took 275 CD reviewz ta get
to tha 276th review, which will be tha 1st DOUBLE DISC review!! Tha 1st CD iz a
mixtape (jacked beats), and tha 2nd CD iz a street album (original beats). I
really like this idea, especially tha jacked beats 1st! This gets me prepared
for tha original heat, ESPECIALLY havin’ a dose of G-Lane!! BTW, tha MySpace
URL of your page (Duce) has an error. It says “myspace.com/ducethetruth” when
it’s really “ http://www.myspace.com/ducethatruth
”. People’ll realize tha REAL URL when they see this review, ya dig! So now,
after FINALLY receivin’ it, here goes tha HIGH ANTICIPATED review fa 747
“Flight Skool”!!!!!
Disc 1: Start Time: 8:52 PM | End Time: 10:17 PM
Disc 2: Start Time: 10:29 PM | End Time: 11:35 PM
Overall: Start Time: 8:52 PM | End Time: 11:35 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!

reviewed on 7.25.2009 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.
01. “Intro”
It’s 3:41, so this must be a pretty good intro, huh? REALLY lookin’ forward to it!!! >>> Kooley talkin’ ova tha intro here wit lightin’ a blunt (if I’m not mistaken)! I feel REALLY anticipated!!! I thought it was gonna be tha whole entire thang, but it started at 1:00 flat. Tha 1st verse here iz soundin’ REAL nice!! I really like tha “pills” and “smokin’” shit here wit all those rhymes! I’m assumin’ that’s Kooley on tha 1st verse; GREAT shit!! Glad he knows about me too; Duce, you a dawg, fa real! Fuckin’ luv you, ya dig! Forgot ta mention this beat iz “Paid In Full”. Here comes tha 2nd verse here (I’m assumin’ Duce). Yea, of course, it my dawg Duce, “polo shorts” you rockin’, so you KNOW you on yo shit, ya dig!! Great verse, especially tha ending, endin’ wit “Duce!” My Rating: 4.1
02. “Cuff Ya Bitch”
Ooh, look at this title! Tha length no less goes GREAT wit it ‘cause it’s Valentine’s Day, lol (2:14)! This should be anticipatin’, and I’m REAL curious ta know what beat this iz!! >>> Yea, I would’ve NEVA guessed it was Cassie “Me & U”. It’s you in tha beginning, and it’s soundin’ good. Good “crumble like cookie… dough” part. No-no @ tha “anti-social.” Nah, just playin’. I know you do yo thang 24/7, Duce! Nice lil’ ending to tha 1st verse wit tha “back shots,” and no less, tha “Duce!” ending of tha verse again! Nice solo right there! My Rating: 3.9
03. “Hoes” Feat. Trey Shawn
I’m readin’ tha tracklisting, and I notice there’s a crack in tha inside. Anyway, looks like tha topic gon continue ta stay steady, so let’s see what we got here… Iz it gon be ova tha Lil’ Wayne/Mannie Fresh 2004 beat of tha same title? That’s my guess. >>> Nope, still in 2006 here; this Rick Ross/Dre “Blow”. I got a good memory here, lol. Pretty catchy beginning wit Kooley. He on tha 1st verse here, doin’ his thang. Nice “cool-103 pounds” wit his money, as well as tha “in tha water like a muthafuckin’ beach towel,” and even tha “niggaz on they toes like ballerinas” part! REAL nice 1st verse!! Here comes you on tha 2nd verse, “givin’ err-body tha lesson” here, ya dig! Nice “been feelin’ myself since I was 16,” although wit me, it was ½ that age, lol!! Good job on tha 2nd verse right there. Tha 3rd verse here, and it’s soundin’ great; a lil’ betta than tha 2nd verse! Yea, “buss in her mouth;” good shit here!! Duce doin’ tha damn thang!! My Rating: 4.0
04. “On”
What else can I say about tha title, lol? I think I know what beat this gon be “on”, lol! >>> Nope, not “Put On”, but what could this be? Oh yea, more Cassie style wit tha Ryan Leslie “Addiction” song last year wit Cassie & Fab. Nice start wit tha ABC’s and even “military” shit. Even heard a “boom-a-yay” part like Nu$$ie in tha 1st verse too! Not bad hook; pretty catchy, even wit tha “uh-uh-on” shit. Tha 2nd verse here, and you slowly creeped in, Duce. I like tha “wings” part. Not bad on tha short lil’ verse from you. Tha 3rd verse starts off wit… a sneeze, lol. Yea, “turn dat bullshit down, and turn dat 747 up!” That 3rd verse held it down; good thing it was longer. Nice “you can pay for skool, but you can’t buy class” part repeatin’ towards tha near-end before tha last hook. My Rating: 3.6
05. “Gossip (Freestyle)”
Well, I know what beat this iz, lol. I’ve heard it so many times, so hopefully, y’all make it sound better! >>> Sounds like sum loaded shit in tha beginning!! That boy Kooley on tha intro! Yea, he comin’ through strong on tha 1st verse here! REAL NICE “ya boyz ‘pissin’ me off’, I call y’all boyz ‘urine’” part!!! Even through tha original hook, he did his thang!! Ooh, on tha 2nd verse too! Luvin’ this raw flow here! Glad he “sippin’ dat medicine” ‘cause it’s like power ups in this song!! Just consistent shit here!! A whole minute outro (I thought you were gonna do a 3rd verse Duce). Hope it’s good for a long outro… Yea, somethin’ should’ve been done wit that outro, especially since this was tha best so far! My Rating: 4.2
06. “Gettin’ Money”
I’m prolly brain-dead on what beat this could have in tha background… Hopefully, y’all will GO HARD on it!!! >>> Unknown start here. I don’t know tha beat, but it does sound jacked (nearly soundin’ like Ludacris “Ho” sampled in tha beat). Tha hook iz DEFINITELY catchy, so this iz tha shit so far!! Tha 1st verse here iz catchy, especially “higher” wit tha “purple drank.” Also, I like tha “we could jam tha hoe like an iPod” part, lol! Yea, these are DEFINITELY “bacteria lines;” Kooley, you did tha damn thang!! Here comes my boy Duce on tha 2nd verse here… Betta lyrics/flow/rhymes on this one! “On point like a ma’fuckin’ thumb tack;” nice line. I thought I heard that before, but it sounded cool wit your attitude! I tell you everytime I talk to you on tha phone: I’m SO FUCKIN’ GLAD I’m talkin’ to you on tha phone!!! You’re such a FUCKIN’ BLESSIN’, ya dig!! REAL nice 2nd verse, including that it ended wit “Duce!” again! Back ta Kooley on tha 3rd verse here. A lil’ calmer here, and decent on tha rhymes. Surprisingly, no comment on tha 3rd verse. Should’ve had tha hook play again! My Rating: 4.2
07. “Stuck To You”
I think I’ll get this beat guess correct… I think it gon be (I was almost gonna say Mobb Deep) Prodigy’s beat wit tha same title from 2 years ago… Let’s see, and how will y’all do? >>> Yea, 2nd beat guess correct here (1st one was “Gossip”). Tha 1st verse here, soundin’ nearly Weezyish on tha flow here. I think it’s Kooley, and he must be so attracted when it comes to tha gurls as that “pacifier” line defined it! Not bad 1st verse. Duce, you’re on tha 2nd verse here, and it’s soundin’ better! Tha flow iz much betta, and tha horny level iz real high here! Real nice job on that 2nd verse! Now, there’s a 3rd verse. I think it’s Kooley again, and still soundin’ decent; hope he gets betta on here. Luvin’ a “honor roll student” here, so that’s a good thing. Looks like a briliant future wit knowledge! You know that’s me when it comes ta knowin’ shit, ya dig! It got a lil’ betta towards tha end of tha verse. More shit goin’ on here near tha end. My Rating: 3.8
¼time: LOL, 1st time it’s a ¼time (usually, it’s ½time)!! Congrats on that, Duce & Kooley! Anyway, sounds like a pretty good start. Not quite in tha “G-Lane” category fa me yet. It’ll prolly be there once I get to tha 2nd CD. This iz a nice way ta introduce y’all! If it was just this CD, I would still be hungry ta hear that G-Lane shit that I really wanna hear! I like tha rappin’, as some of it’s pretty good while some of it’s pretty decent. Hope tha 2nd ½ of this CD goes harder and has more gangsta style beats ‘cause it seems like tha 1st ½ of this CD iz a lot of female related shit. Regardless, average CD rating iz currently at 4.0, so y’all in good shape! Takin’ a short dinner break, so I’ll be back in about 10 minutes! *Leaves at 9:30 PM* *Returns at 9:39 PM* I’m a minute early, lol! I wish err-body who says “I’ma call you back” was like me wit tha time estimation!
08. “Ain’t Gone Let Up”
I like when people spell “gon” as “gone”; I really like it, ya dig. Anotha correct beat guess here ‘cause this D.G. Yola’s beat! This should be REAL HOT wit y’all spittin’ on it!! Sounds pretty interestin’ wit all tha “toilet paper” shit, lol! I like tha “get necks from these hoes like a colarbone” part! Real nice job on that 1st verse!! Good job from Kooley there, and tha hook was pretty good (although you could’ve renamed tha title). Tha 2nd verse here from my big dawg Duce, and he SO polo’d up here!! Good job on your part wit tha lyrics and shit! Shit, I got tha fuckin’ hiccups! I don’t want it throwin’ me off, so as soon as this ‘bout ta end, I gon hold my breath fa ‘bout 30 seconds! *Holds breath* My Rating: 4.1
09. “Sexual Healing”
Before I check tha title, I see 4:48 on tha length!! Ooh, this a long one! *Checks title* Looks like anotha female song… >>> And it’s even on tha Marvin Gaye beat. I didn’t wanna guess ‘cause I couldn’t picture this. LOL @ tha “take ya to tha mall and buy sum jigga juice” part; catchy. Sounds a lil’ different from tha Marvin Gaye beat, but it ain’t that bad. Catchy 1st verse, although I don’t really want this fa a long song. Catchy hook too on this. Tha 2nd verse here iz aight; no comment on it. Only 2 verses? And it’s ending… Sorry, but not that high of a rating fa me. Although it was a long song, y’all made it catchy ta where it didn’t feel like nearly 5 minutes went by. My Rating: 2.8
10. “Dedication”
LOL, 1st ID error here: “Dedication” iz not spelled wit tha word “dead,” so tha “a” should be removed (since y’all have “Deadication”). Anyway, looks like a Weezy title… What could I expect? >>> Ewe, anotha somewhat yucky start wit that Rap vs. Rap beat from Novakane and his Lil’ Wayne somewhat feature of “Shawty Say”. I wonder why they Rap vs. Rap’d this song in tha 1st verse when David Banner had it 1st? Tha 1st verse from Kooley here, and it’s soundin’ more into tha sex mode, so maybe I’ll be more interested. Good job on that 1st verse; I was interested. Who gon be on tha 2nd verse? Ooh, still Kooley here! This verse iz a lil’ below tha last one. LOL @ tha “Flintstone vitamins;” ain’t that for below 10 year olds? What happened to tha sexual themes in tha 2nd verse? Duceless also. My Rating: 3.3
11. “P.U.S.S.Y.”
Wow, anotha female song… I hate ta say it, but there’s not one song so far over 4.2? That’s not that good, but remember, all my anticipation iz locked in on that street album, ya dig!! I’m gonna guess this beat iz tha “J.E.E.Z.Y.” beat? >>> Nope, but it anotha scary beat fa me. Don’t know it, but it sounds like Disco vs. R&B… Duce, you’re on tha 1st verse… Glad you got some “titties” feature in tha verse (describin’ tha female). OMG, tha Super Mario Bros. line got my attention, fa real!! A lotta shit on that line, so I must quote tha whole thang: “Princess, would you suck Mario? Bowser? Luigi and Yoshi, outta they boxers?” My God, that’s such an ear-catcher!!! What an impression, Duce!! Hearin’ tha hook now, and it sounds like this beat iz a 50 Cent type beat (‘cause of tha way tha flow iz). If this so, then really, yuck! You’re on tha 2nd verse again here (now, this iz your female song). Sounds like a betta flow. Wow, what was it, like 4-8 lines? Kooley sneakin’ in on tha 3rd verse, so it ain’t exactly your song. No comment on him; should’ve been you. My Rating: 3.0
12. “Looka Here”
No, no, no!! I don’t like ta see that title ‘cause I think of Rich Boy “Boy Looka Here” (yes, “re”, not “Hear”), anotha reason why I hated 2007! Bad spelling/grammar error that makes ID Error #2. And very low anticipation level on tha Rich Boy beat!! >>> Boo, it’s correct! Please, go hard on this ta impress me!! Soundin’ pretty good wit my boy Duce on tha 1st verse! Nice flow, and good rhymes. Did you say, “condom on his tongue?” Sex obsession! LOL @ tha “trash can filled wit evidence.” No matter what I do, I NEVA leave proof anywhere! Even since tha past 12 years!! What’s tha talkin’ afta tha 1st verse? Either way, nice 1st verse, and tha talkin’ was cool. Tha 2nd verse (Kooley) sounds like someone from BR, but I can’t think of who. Either way, not bad. Wow, ending again… My Rating: 3.1
13. “Grillin’ Me”
Anotha error (should be “Grillin’” wit an “i”, not an “e”). Only 2:21, so let’s see what can fit… >>> Old beat (forgot what it iz; sounds like Young Jeezy), but you in tha beginning, and it sounds good. Much betta comeback to tha 1st CD here! Tha 1st verse here, and you doin’ a pretty good job. I like how you handled it, and you just sound REAL nice on this beat!! Good shit on tha 2nd verse too; real nice ending wit tha “most infected!” My Rating: 4.3
14. “Fuck Rite”
IDK what I’m goin’ to expect again… Maybe good? >>> More Rich Boy again (but betta wit “D-Boyz”). Not bad hook, although tha 2nd ½ of it adds that BR sound wit tha repetitiveness! Big dawg Duce on tha 1st verse!! Real great lyrics here wit a mix of different subjects!! “Run shit all day like a fuckin’ sewa;” agreed! LOL @ tha “treat her like an eraser; fuckin’ just use her” part and tha “I’m on my shit, my ass iz a mess” part too! Really felt that 1st verse! Yea, Kooley on tha 2nd verse, “shittin’” err-where on this track! Great job on that verse too! This one surpassed tha last song! LOL, what one will be my favorite it feels like, lol? My Rating: 4.4
15. “Kool Millie”
I like tha “k” in tha “Kool”, but iz this gon be “A Milli”? *Gets scared for tha ending!* >>> Ewe, no, ewe, ewe, ewe!! Betta be good, although REALLY played out! Should’ve kept this in ’08! Sounds like real tight rappin’ here wit tha flow and tha rhymes. Good job from Kooley here, doin’ tha damn thang! Great “multiplyin’ & dividin’” wit tha “weed” shit towards tha near-end! LOL @ tha ending wit tha “Let The Beat Build” type ending. Great ending, but real played out beat! My Rating: 4.2
½time: Just a ½time, but more like an overall for this CD. Well, I was disappointed in a way, although it ain’t ova yet, so I still got more ta devour, ya dig!! I thought tha 2nd ½ would go hard, but it was more like tha 4th ¼ of tha CD instead ‘cause 13-15 were REAL nice! Everything but #8 was either typical female song, boring, or bad beat. You KNOW I’ma hold y’all down though ‘cause wit tha street album, shiiid, I hope that’s got what I’m lookin’ for!!

Average CD Rating: 3.8
Now, time for tha street album!! This one’s got 15 songs too (nearly tha same length on tha CD as well [50+ minutes]). Start Time: 10:29 PM | End Time: 11:35 PM
01. “Intro”
This intro’s 1:11 shorter than tha last one. Hopefully, wit original production, that I should feel this A LOT MORE!! >>> Not too much into tha beat start, but hopefully, tha rappin’ll be good! Pretty nice start, and good rhymes. Good job from my boy Duce; let’s hear Kooley… Not bad start here. Okay verse, but tha last intro was better! My Rating: 3.4
02. “Baby Momma”
I think you’re missin’ an “m” in tha title. Anyway, this iz your single you’re pushin’, huh? Betta be good! I know it’s anotha female song, but it betta be good!! >>> Sorry, but very bad start. If this what tha whole CD gon sound like, I gon have NO interest! LOL @ tha “toilet; took a shit in that,” especially tha “rememba tha smell” shit, lol? Cool wit tha “polo socks” part. Err-thang polo wit Duce, so you KNOW my boy fresh to deff (although tha 1st verse was Kooley; he fresh to deff too)! Duce on tha 2nd verse here, and still decent, although I luv tha “polo black” part. Your freshness iz sky-high! I wish it would apply more into more gangsta, weed smokin’, jiggin’ music. Kooley back here on tha 3rd verse, and he soundin’ like he into tha song. Short verse; why tha weirdness at tha end wit a lot of silence? No more female songs, PLEASE! My Rating: 2.3
03. “2nd Line”
I don’t know whether or not ta have faith in it… I don’t know what tha title could mean… >>> Better beat here, and Q-Red’s on tha track! Now, it BETTA not be 2.3ish!! That boy Kooley in tha beginning, and he doin’ his thang on this shit! Luv that beat here!! It’s actually NORMAL! Great job on tha 1st verse, and tha hook iz just catchy!! Can’t wait ta hear my boy Duce on this beat!! Still Kooley here, “180 pounds.” If you flip tha 8 and 0, and add a pound, I’m approximately that weight, lol. Luvin’ tha “marijuana” shit here, including tha gangsta lyrics! Great shit here! Duce should’ve been on it! My Rating: 4.5
LET’S KEEP THA CD LIKE “2nd Line”!!!!!!!!!!
04. “Candy”
Mandy Moore, right? >>> Kooley soundin’ pretty good wit his rappin’ here. Not much goin’ on wit tha beat so far. It ain’t poppy like that “Baby Momma” shit. Tha hook here iz kinda ehhh… I thought it was gonna say “shiiiid,” but it said, “shhhhheee.” Duce here on tha 2nd verse, always luvin’ tha female songs. Ooh, “pussy juice;” fiendin’ here, lol! Too short of a song, and not much ta say. My Rating: 3.0
05. “If U Know Me” Feat. Lil’ Cali
Just checked tha length and it’s 4:45. PLEASE, Q-RED ON THA TRACK!!! *Checks ID* No comment; lemme hear! >>> YEA, I GUESSED RIGHT!!! Pretty good beat start, although what’s wit tha snappin’? That could lead ta good though. Tha beat goes great wit that intro/hook/w/e it iz. Okay, that was just tha intro, and here’s tha hook, soundin’ great! Yea, nice club hook, especially my big dawg Duce bein’ on it, sayin’ “dawg” and shit like that! Yea, Duce on tha 1st verse; what a blessin’!!! Great job on tha 1st verse, and I luv that hook, especially wit you sayin’ “dawg;” it just makes me feel more blessed ta be cool wit you!! Thanx for discoverin’ me!! LOL @ tha no feature error! I know you didn’t have room on tha back cover, but it should’ve been somewhere… Lil’ Cali’s on tha 2nd verse here; great job collaboratin’ wit him!! He did a nice job, and fit great on this shit! Yea, my big dawg on tha 3rd verse also; Duce!! Great job on that 3rd verse, and it went right into tha hook! Nice ending wit tha “money in my wallet” shit, and tha beat outro!! REAL GREAT SHIT from Q-Red, and it’s still goin’ strong!!! LOL, REAL cold ending at 4:40, leavin’ 5 seconds of silence. My Rating: 4.7
06. “Clear The Hole”
Tha title looks catchy, so I HOPE it’s on some TIGHT shit again!!! >>> My ma’fuckin’ boy Q-Red on tha track… AGAIN!!!!! Tha beats just sound more anticipatin’ when I hear ‘em!! Will Kooley hold this one down? That’s him on tha hook, doin’ tha damn thang!! This iz anotha real catchy song here!! Pretty good rappin’ here in tha 1st verse, although I think Duce did a betta job on tha last song. Yea, “breathin’ in this weed smoke;” tight line! Yea, Duce iz on tha 2nd verse!! My ma’fuckin’ dawg here!! Just straight snappin’ on this Q-Red beat!! Really feelin’ what you spittin’ here, as well as tha GRIMY rhymes!!! I really like tha acapella parts; they make it sound more catchy!! Shit, it’s ending! I wish there was anotha verse! My Rating: 4.6
YOU LIKE THIS CONSISTENCY?!? WELL, KEEP IT UP!!!!!
07. “Cloud Nine”
Anotha title that looks like it has tha potential wit me!! Betta be on sum smokin’ shit!!! >>> Who’s “Rich On The Track”? I heard of him before, so this will be anotha time hearin’ him. Okay start, not much in tha hook fa me so far. Okay, 1st verse here, and tha beat ain’t that interesting unfortunately. Sounds like Lil’ Wayne’s R&B side… Not much on tha 1st verse; wish it was a slow, weed smokin’ anthem (like Blu Black’s “Smoke Something” song)! Kooley was on tha 1st verse, and now, Duce, you’re on tha 2nd verse… Like tha “purp smoke” part. What’s wit tha quiet part around tha 1:50 mark? Reminded me of a restaurant. Expected much betta from this one; too soft. My Rating: 2.7
¾time: Well, a mixed up start. Nothin’s decent (which iz VERY rare on a CD); it’s either REAL GREAT or REALLY not for me… We had all tha sweet female songs on tha last CD; let’s just go hard on this one so I can put it on my iPod, ya dig!! Average CD rating for this CD iz currently at a 3.6, which iz sadly 4/10ths less than tha otha CD’s average CD rating in tha middle; this one had 3 FLAMIN’ HOT songs!! Overall, wit tha otha CD combined, tha average CD rating currently stands at a 3.7.
08. “Classified”
No anticipation. >>> Who iz that beat intro? Iz that Q-Red? B-Real? Talk about no anticipation, and look what we have here!! Too bad it’s just a touch under 3:30 (3:23 on tha length). What’s wit tha whisperin’? Please, don’t waste a beat! Good, it got normal at :40! Pretty nice rappin’ from Kooley here. Nothin’ much on tha lyrics, but tha beat holds it down fa him. Interesting “Nintendo cartridges” part wit tha glock cocked sound effect at tha end of tha 1st verse! That producer’s name iz all in tha background of tha beat; who iz it really? Must be someone I neva heard… Tha same type of rappin’ in tha 2nd verse wit nothin’ ta really say. Different kinda song here. My Rating: 3.9
09. “Jealousy”
Could be a good track… Wit a good title like that, I expect a Q-Red beat! >>> Hell no! Wrong this time, but Big Band intro! *Wants ta get my 88 year old grandma!* “GR8 GRANDMA!!!” LOL. Anyway, sounds like a fast beat vs. Big Band; anotha different kinda song. Now, at :49, it went more into a Baton Rouge sound, lol. My boy Duce on tha 1st verse, doin’ his thang on tha rappin’. What’s wit that Big Band hook? Kooley on tha 2nd verse, doin’ a nice job here. Okay 2nd verse here, but above average. Anotha REAL cold ending at 2:48.5; it like cut tha Big Band sample RIGHT off like a ma’fucka, LMAO!! My Rating: 3.5
10. “Make It Happen”
Ooh, 4:22 on tha length! Glad it’s longer, and I KNOW y’all gon “make it happen” wit this song! Q-Red, can you return, please? >>> Yea, my wish just came true!!! “Q-Red on tha track, and he runnin’ this bitch!” More different shit here wit tha hook soundin’ random, but GREAT wit that beat!! Sounds like Kooley on tha 1st verse, “blue raggin’” wit a “blue rag” on tha 1st verse. Beat sounds more on tha Savage type, which I REALLY like!! Nice job wit tha rappin’ on tha 1st verse; good attitude! Yea, my boy Duce on tha 2nd verse!! Ooh, GREAT attitude here!! Keep it up!! Wow, REALLY likin’ tha “leave you ‘like Chilli’ missin’ tha ‘Left Eye’;” punchlines are at top here!! Real great shit here, Duce!! One of your best deliveries!! Yea, couldn’t get enough of Duce, as you’re on tha 3rd verse!!! Just straight RAW SHIT HERE!!! TOO CRAZY OF A VERSE!!! DEFINITELY Duce’s best here!! My Rating: 4.7
11. “Home”
Almost 4 minutes long (3:56)… I don’t know how much I can anticipate this… >>> I knew it was gonna have a weird start fa me… Anotha sample, more on tha R&B side. Tha 1st verse iz here from Kooley, and it’s soundin’ a lil’ betta than tha typical songs that I can’t feel that much. Okay beat here too. Not bad 1st verse; didn’t realize tha hook was for tha females about goin’ “home” and “bet’cha can’t do it on tha dick at home.” Duce, you’re on tha 2nd verse here, not near tha last song, lol. I can picture you in a suit in tha club or somethin’ here wit a drink in your hand… Not bad. Tha rest of this verse iz aight; can’t say anything. Oh no, long-ass outro wit just tha beat (over 45 seconds)… My Rating: 3.3
12. “Do Me”
Looks like anotha female song… >>> I don’t like these soft-ass starts. Tha WRONG consistency!! Sounds like Kooley on tha 1st verse here… Nice “picked like tha lottery” part, as I’m BIG about tha lottery, ya dig! Not bad 1st verse, and tha hook ain’t even on tha female tip. I’m just not big about tha soft beat. Glad y’all “do you.” Duce on tha 2nd verse here… Glad you obsessed wit your “polo horses” ‘cause I LUV polos, and I’m glad you serious about ‘em! My Rating: 3.5
13. “Young Fella Shout Out”
What’s this? I see tha title used 2 lines; could’ve used that for Lil’ Cali’s feature on tha #5 song. >>> Tha beat nearly reminds me of “Can’t Tell Me Nothin’”, only wit a female in tha background… My boy Duce on tha 1st verse here, doin’ a nice job wit tha way you sound. Pretty nice 1st verse here.Finally, a “ya heard me” in this CD, lol! It took 28 songs (I think since tha intro)! Tha 2nd verse here, and I think it’s Kooley this time. Soundin’ pretty good wit tha way tha rappin’ sounds. LOL @ “rap on tha toilet.” Gettin’ kinda raw around 2:10; great rappin’!! Who’s that T-Rock dude at tha end? I like their “shout out.” My Rating: 3.6
14. “Goodnite”
LOL, really? It only 11:27 PM where I’m at. Yea, I’m a late bird! My 65 year-old grandma goes ta bed at around this time too, lol. Tha otha night (few weeks ago), we were up at 1:30 AM! Now, how would you like ta have a “RAPPIN’” grandma like mine, lol? >>> Not sure of tha start here… Not likin’ tha East Coast style. Oh no, annoying vocal background wit that sample. LOL @ “that was tha patron talkin’.” Can’t really say anything about tha 1st verse, so it’s just aight. I’m guessin’ Kooley again on tha 2nd verse? Yea, he said, “I’m from New Orleans,” so that’s him. Nothin’ much in tha 2nd verse. That’s it? Most of these songs have 2 verses… My Rating: 2.6
15. “Pussy Ass Niggas”
Only 1 song left… And tha title looks STRONG!!! Can we have a STRONG-ASS ENDING?!?!? >>> Yea, “hit that J real quick.” Well, looks like anotha disappointment; tha beat again iz pretty soft, and has anotha annoying vocal sample in tha background. Tha lyrics at least are real gangsta here wit tha “glock” and that good shit on here. Boring beat; why ain’t it changin’ anywhere? Sounds like a good hook though. Pretty nice verse from Duce here on tha 2nd verse. I almost didn’t have anythang ta say until tha end of tha verse. Here comes Kooley on tha FINAL verse… Pretty good. Okay ending song. A mix of hard lyrics vs. a boringish beat. My Rating: 3.4
Overall: Well, I thought it would be WAYYYY better, but I guess you have your own music taste. Only 1 song went hard in tha 2nd ½, and a bunch were decent. Not much of a G-Lane style on this CD as I thought it would be. However, I ain’t doubtin’ yo future. I KNOW you gon click up wit sum G-Lane people like Blu Black in tha future! I’m glad you see him here and there, ya dig! Duce, keep doin’ yo thang, keep fuckin’ wit me! Kooley, keep doin’ yo thang, and appreciatin’ what I do! Regardless of my expectations, of course, I’m makin’ a commercial for this CD; I won’t destroy my promise ‘cause I’m loyal like that, you know!

01. “Intro”
It’s 3:41, so this must be a pretty good intro, huh? REALLY lookin’ forward to it!!! >>> Kooley talkin’ ova tha intro here wit lightin’ a blunt (if I’m not mistaken)! I feel REALLY anticipated!!! I thought it was gonna be tha whole entire thang, but it started at 1:00 flat. Tha 1st verse here iz soundin’ REAL nice!! I really like tha “pills” and “smokin’” shit here wit all those rhymes! I’m assumin’ that’s Kooley on tha 1st verse; GREAT shit!! Glad he knows about me too; Duce, you a dawg, fa real! Fuckin’ luv you, ya dig! Forgot ta mention this beat iz “Paid In Full”. Here comes tha 2nd verse here (I’m assumin’ Duce). Yea, of course, it my dawg Duce, “polo shorts” you rockin’, so you KNOW you on yo shit, ya dig!! Great verse, especially tha ending, endin’ wit “Duce!” My Rating: 4.1
02. “Cuff Ya Bitch”
Ooh, look at this title! Tha length no less goes GREAT wit it ‘cause it’s Valentine’s Day, lol (2:14)! This should be anticipatin’, and I’m REAL curious ta know what beat this iz!! >>> Yea, I would’ve NEVA guessed it was Cassie “Me & U”. It’s you in tha beginning, and it’s soundin’ good. Good “crumble like cookie… dough” part. No-no @ tha “anti-social.” Nah, just playin’. I know you do yo thang 24/7, Duce! Nice lil’ ending to tha 1st verse wit tha “back shots,” and no less, tha “Duce!” ending of tha verse again! Nice solo right there! My Rating: 3.9
03. “Hoes” Feat. Trey Shawn
I’m readin’ tha tracklisting, and I notice there’s a crack in tha inside. Anyway, looks like tha topic gon continue ta stay steady, so let’s see what we got here… Iz it gon be ova tha Lil’ Wayne/Mannie Fresh 2004 beat of tha same title? That’s my guess. >>> Nope, still in 2006 here; this Rick Ross/Dre “Blow”. I got a good memory here, lol. Pretty catchy beginning wit Kooley. He on tha 1st verse here, doin’ his thang. Nice “cool-103 pounds” wit his money, as well as tha “in tha water like a muthafuckin’ beach towel,” and even tha “niggaz on they toes like ballerinas” part! REAL nice 1st verse!! Here comes you on tha 2nd verse, “givin’ err-body tha lesson” here, ya dig! Nice “been feelin’ myself since I was 16,” although wit me, it was ½ that age, lol!! Good job on tha 2nd verse right there. Tha 3rd verse here, and it’s soundin’ great; a lil’ betta than tha 2nd verse! Yea, “buss in her mouth;” good shit here!! Duce doin’ tha damn thang!! My Rating: 4.0
04. “On”
What else can I say about tha title, lol? I think I know what beat this gon be “on”, lol! >>> Nope, not “Put On”, but what could this be? Oh yea, more Cassie style wit tha Ryan Leslie “Addiction” song last year wit Cassie & Fab. Nice start wit tha ABC’s and even “military” shit. Even heard a “boom-a-yay” part like Nu$$ie in tha 1st verse too! Not bad hook; pretty catchy, even wit tha “uh-uh-on” shit. Tha 2nd verse here, and you slowly creeped in, Duce. I like tha “wings” part. Not bad on tha short lil’ verse from you. Tha 3rd verse starts off wit… a sneeze, lol. Yea, “turn dat bullshit down, and turn dat 747 up!” That 3rd verse held it down; good thing it was longer. Nice “you can pay for skool, but you can’t buy class” part repeatin’ towards tha near-end before tha last hook. My Rating: 3.6
05. “Gossip (Freestyle)”
Well, I know what beat this iz, lol. I’ve heard it so many times, so hopefully, y’all make it sound better! >>> Sounds like sum loaded shit in tha beginning!! That boy Kooley on tha intro! Yea, he comin’ through strong on tha 1st verse here! REAL NICE “ya boyz ‘pissin’ me off’, I call y’all boyz ‘urine’” part!!! Even through tha original hook, he did his thang!! Ooh, on tha 2nd verse too! Luvin’ this raw flow here! Glad he “sippin’ dat medicine” ‘cause it’s like power ups in this song!! Just consistent shit here!! A whole minute outro (I thought you were gonna do a 3rd verse Duce). Hope it’s good for a long outro… Yea, somethin’ should’ve been done wit that outro, especially since this was tha best so far! My Rating: 4.2
06. “Gettin’ Money”
I’m prolly brain-dead on what beat this could have in tha background… Hopefully, y’all will GO HARD on it!!! >>> Unknown start here. I don’t know tha beat, but it does sound jacked (nearly soundin’ like Ludacris “Ho” sampled in tha beat). Tha hook iz DEFINITELY catchy, so this iz tha shit so far!! Tha 1st verse here iz catchy, especially “higher” wit tha “purple drank.” Also, I like tha “we could jam tha hoe like an iPod” part, lol! Yea, these are DEFINITELY “bacteria lines;” Kooley, you did tha damn thang!! Here comes my boy Duce on tha 2nd verse here… Betta lyrics/flow/rhymes on this one! “On point like a ma’fuckin’ thumb tack;” nice line. I thought I heard that before, but it sounded cool wit your attitude! I tell you everytime I talk to you on tha phone: I’m SO FUCKIN’ GLAD I’m talkin’ to you on tha phone!!! You’re such a FUCKIN’ BLESSIN’, ya dig!! REAL nice 2nd verse, including that it ended wit “Duce!” again! Back ta Kooley on tha 3rd verse here. A lil’ calmer here, and decent on tha rhymes. Surprisingly, no comment on tha 3rd verse. Should’ve had tha hook play again! My Rating: 4.2
07. “Stuck To You”
I think I’ll get this beat guess correct… I think it gon be (I was almost gonna say Mobb Deep) Prodigy’s beat wit tha same title from 2 years ago… Let’s see, and how will y’all do? >>> Yea, 2nd beat guess correct here (1st one was “Gossip”). Tha 1st verse here, soundin’ nearly Weezyish on tha flow here. I think it’s Kooley, and he must be so attracted when it comes to tha gurls as that “pacifier” line defined it! Not bad 1st verse. Duce, you’re on tha 2nd verse here, and it’s soundin’ better! Tha flow iz much betta, and tha horny level iz real high here! Real nice job on that 2nd verse! Now, there’s a 3rd verse. I think it’s Kooley again, and still soundin’ decent; hope he gets betta on here. Luvin’ a “honor roll student” here, so that’s a good thing. Looks like a briliant future wit knowledge! You know that’s me when it comes ta knowin’ shit, ya dig! It got a lil’ betta towards tha end of tha verse. More shit goin’ on here near tha end. My Rating: 3.8
¼time: LOL, 1st time it’s a ¼time (usually, it’s ½time)!! Congrats on that, Duce & Kooley! Anyway, sounds like a pretty good start. Not quite in tha “G-Lane” category fa me yet. It’ll prolly be there once I get to tha 2nd CD. This iz a nice way ta introduce y’all! If it was just this CD, I would still be hungry ta hear that G-Lane shit that I really wanna hear! I like tha rappin’, as some of it’s pretty good while some of it’s pretty decent. Hope tha 2nd ½ of this CD goes harder and has more gangsta style beats ‘cause it seems like tha 1st ½ of this CD iz a lot of female related shit. Regardless, average CD rating iz currently at 4.0, so y’all in good shape! Takin’ a short dinner break, so I’ll be back in about 10 minutes! *Leaves at 9:30 PM* *Returns at 9:39 PM* I’m a minute early, lol! I wish err-body who says “I’ma call you back” was like me wit tha time estimation!
08. “Ain’t Gone Let Up”
I like when people spell “gon” as “gone”; I really like it, ya dig. Anotha correct beat guess here ‘cause this D.G. Yola’s beat! This should be REAL HOT wit y’all spittin’ on it!! Sounds pretty interestin’ wit all tha “toilet paper” shit, lol! I like tha “get necks from these hoes like a colarbone” part! Real nice job on that 1st verse!! Good job from Kooley there, and tha hook was pretty good (although you could’ve renamed tha title). Tha 2nd verse here from my big dawg Duce, and he SO polo’d up here!! Good job on your part wit tha lyrics and shit! Shit, I got tha fuckin’ hiccups! I don’t want it throwin’ me off, so as soon as this ‘bout ta end, I gon hold my breath fa ‘bout 30 seconds! *Holds breath* My Rating: 4.1
09. “Sexual Healing”
Before I check tha title, I see 4:48 on tha length!! Ooh, this a long one! *Checks title* Looks like anotha female song… >>> And it’s even on tha Marvin Gaye beat. I didn’t wanna guess ‘cause I couldn’t picture this. LOL @ tha “take ya to tha mall and buy sum jigga juice” part; catchy. Sounds a lil’ different from tha Marvin Gaye beat, but it ain’t that bad. Catchy 1st verse, although I don’t really want this fa a long song. Catchy hook too on this. Tha 2nd verse here iz aight; no comment on it. Only 2 verses? And it’s ending… Sorry, but not that high of a rating fa me. Although it was a long song, y’all made it catchy ta where it didn’t feel like nearly 5 minutes went by. My Rating: 2.8
10. “Dedication”
LOL, 1st ID error here: “Dedication” iz not spelled wit tha word “dead,” so tha “a” should be removed (since y’all have “Deadication”). Anyway, looks like a Weezy title… What could I expect? >>> Ewe, anotha somewhat yucky start wit that Rap vs. Rap beat from Novakane and his Lil’ Wayne somewhat feature of “Shawty Say”. I wonder why they Rap vs. Rap’d this song in tha 1st verse when David Banner had it 1st? Tha 1st verse from Kooley here, and it’s soundin’ more into tha sex mode, so maybe I’ll be more interested. Good job on that 1st verse; I was interested. Who gon be on tha 2nd verse? Ooh, still Kooley here! This verse iz a lil’ below tha last one. LOL @ tha “Flintstone vitamins;” ain’t that for below 10 year olds? What happened to tha sexual themes in tha 2nd verse? Duceless also. My Rating: 3.3
11. “P.U.S.S.Y.”
Wow, anotha female song… I hate ta say it, but there’s not one song so far over 4.2? That’s not that good, but remember, all my anticipation iz locked in on that street album, ya dig!! I’m gonna guess this beat iz tha “J.E.E.Z.Y.” beat? >>> Nope, but it anotha scary beat fa me. Don’t know it, but it sounds like Disco vs. R&B… Duce, you’re on tha 1st verse… Glad you got some “titties” feature in tha verse (describin’ tha female). OMG, tha Super Mario Bros. line got my attention, fa real!! A lotta shit on that line, so I must quote tha whole thang: “Princess, would you suck Mario? Bowser? Luigi and Yoshi, outta they boxers?” My God, that’s such an ear-catcher!!! What an impression, Duce!! Hearin’ tha hook now, and it sounds like this beat iz a 50 Cent type beat (‘cause of tha way tha flow iz). If this so, then really, yuck! You’re on tha 2nd verse again here (now, this iz your female song). Sounds like a betta flow. Wow, what was it, like 4-8 lines? Kooley sneakin’ in on tha 3rd verse, so it ain’t exactly your song. No comment on him; should’ve been you. My Rating: 3.0
12. “Looka Here”
No, no, no!! I don’t like ta see that title ‘cause I think of Rich Boy “Boy Looka Here” (yes, “re”, not “Hear”), anotha reason why I hated 2007! Bad spelling/grammar error that makes ID Error #2. And very low anticipation level on tha Rich Boy beat!! >>> Boo, it’s correct! Please, go hard on this ta impress me!! Soundin’ pretty good wit my boy Duce on tha 1st verse! Nice flow, and good rhymes. Did you say, “condom on his tongue?” Sex obsession! LOL @ tha “trash can filled wit evidence.” No matter what I do, I NEVA leave proof anywhere! Even since tha past 12 years!! What’s tha talkin’ afta tha 1st verse? Either way, nice 1st verse, and tha talkin’ was cool. Tha 2nd verse (Kooley) sounds like someone from BR, but I can’t think of who. Either way, not bad. Wow, ending again… My Rating: 3.1
13. “Grillin’ Me”
Anotha error (should be “Grillin’” wit an “i”, not an “e”). Only 2:21, so let’s see what can fit… >>> Old beat (forgot what it iz; sounds like Young Jeezy), but you in tha beginning, and it sounds good. Much betta comeback to tha 1st CD here! Tha 1st verse here, and you doin’ a pretty good job. I like how you handled it, and you just sound REAL nice on this beat!! Good shit on tha 2nd verse too; real nice ending wit tha “most infected!” My Rating: 4.3
14. “Fuck Rite”
IDK what I’m goin’ to expect again… Maybe good? >>> More Rich Boy again (but betta wit “D-Boyz”). Not bad hook, although tha 2nd ½ of it adds that BR sound wit tha repetitiveness! Big dawg Duce on tha 1st verse!! Real great lyrics here wit a mix of different subjects!! “Run shit all day like a fuckin’ sewa;” agreed! LOL @ tha “treat her like an eraser; fuckin’ just use her” part and tha “I’m on my shit, my ass iz a mess” part too! Really felt that 1st verse! Yea, Kooley on tha 2nd verse, “shittin’” err-where on this track! Great job on that verse too! This one surpassed tha last song! LOL, what one will be my favorite it feels like, lol? My Rating: 4.4
15. “Kool Millie”
I like tha “k” in tha “Kool”, but iz this gon be “A Milli”? *Gets scared for tha ending!* >>> Ewe, no, ewe, ewe, ewe!! Betta be good, although REALLY played out! Should’ve kept this in ’08! Sounds like real tight rappin’ here wit tha flow and tha rhymes. Good job from Kooley here, doin’ tha damn thang! Great “multiplyin’ & dividin’” wit tha “weed” shit towards tha near-end! LOL @ tha ending wit tha “Let The Beat Build” type ending. Great ending, but real played out beat! My Rating: 4.2
½time: Just a ½time, but more like an overall for this CD. Well, I was disappointed in a way, although it ain’t ova yet, so I still got more ta devour, ya dig!! I thought tha 2nd ½ would go hard, but it was more like tha 4th ¼ of tha CD instead ‘cause 13-15 were REAL nice! Everything but #8 was either typical female song, boring, or bad beat. You KNOW I’ma hold y’all down though ‘cause wit tha street album, shiiid, I hope that’s got what I’m lookin’ for!!

Now, time for tha street album!! This one’s got 15 songs too (nearly tha same length on tha CD as well [50+ minutes]). Start Time: 10:29 PM | End Time: 11:35 PM
01. “Intro”
This intro’s 1:11 shorter than tha last one. Hopefully, wit original production, that I should feel this A LOT MORE!! >>> Not too much into tha beat start, but hopefully, tha rappin’ll be good! Pretty nice start, and good rhymes. Good job from my boy Duce; let’s hear Kooley… Not bad start here. Okay verse, but tha last intro was better! My Rating: 3.4
02. “Baby Momma”
I think you’re missin’ an “m” in tha title. Anyway, this iz your single you’re pushin’, huh? Betta be good! I know it’s anotha female song, but it betta be good!! >>> Sorry, but very bad start. If this what tha whole CD gon sound like, I gon have NO interest! LOL @ tha “toilet; took a shit in that,” especially tha “rememba tha smell” shit, lol? Cool wit tha “polo socks” part. Err-thang polo wit Duce, so you KNOW my boy fresh to deff (although tha 1st verse was Kooley; he fresh to deff too)! Duce on tha 2nd verse here, and still decent, although I luv tha “polo black” part. Your freshness iz sky-high! I wish it would apply more into more gangsta, weed smokin’, jiggin’ music. Kooley back here on tha 3rd verse, and he soundin’ like he into tha song. Short verse; why tha weirdness at tha end wit a lot of silence? No more female songs, PLEASE! My Rating: 2.3
03. “2nd Line”
I don’t know whether or not ta have faith in it… I don’t know what tha title could mean… >>> Better beat here, and Q-Red’s on tha track! Now, it BETTA not be 2.3ish!! That boy Kooley in tha beginning, and he doin’ his thang on this shit! Luv that beat here!! It’s actually NORMAL! Great job on tha 1st verse, and tha hook iz just catchy!! Can’t wait ta hear my boy Duce on this beat!! Still Kooley here, “180 pounds.” If you flip tha 8 and 0, and add a pound, I’m approximately that weight, lol. Luvin’ tha “marijuana” shit here, including tha gangsta lyrics! Great shit here! Duce should’ve been on it! My Rating: 4.5
LET’S KEEP THA CD LIKE “2nd Line”!!!!!!!!!!
04. “Candy”
Mandy Moore, right? >>> Kooley soundin’ pretty good wit his rappin’ here. Not much goin’ on wit tha beat so far. It ain’t poppy like that “Baby Momma” shit. Tha hook here iz kinda ehhh… I thought it was gonna say “shiiiid,” but it said, “shhhhheee.” Duce here on tha 2nd verse, always luvin’ tha female songs. Ooh, “pussy juice;” fiendin’ here, lol! Too short of a song, and not much ta say. My Rating: 3.0
05. “If U Know Me” Feat. Lil’ Cali
Just checked tha length and it’s 4:45. PLEASE, Q-RED ON THA TRACK!!! *Checks ID* No comment; lemme hear! >>> YEA, I GUESSED RIGHT!!! Pretty good beat start, although what’s wit tha snappin’? That could lead ta good though. Tha beat goes great wit that intro/hook/w/e it iz. Okay, that was just tha intro, and here’s tha hook, soundin’ great! Yea, nice club hook, especially my big dawg Duce bein’ on it, sayin’ “dawg” and shit like that! Yea, Duce on tha 1st verse; what a blessin’!!! Great job on tha 1st verse, and I luv that hook, especially wit you sayin’ “dawg;” it just makes me feel more blessed ta be cool wit you!! Thanx for discoverin’ me!! LOL @ tha no feature error! I know you didn’t have room on tha back cover, but it should’ve been somewhere… Lil’ Cali’s on tha 2nd verse here; great job collaboratin’ wit him!! He did a nice job, and fit great on this shit! Yea, my big dawg on tha 3rd verse also; Duce!! Great job on that 3rd verse, and it went right into tha hook! Nice ending wit tha “money in my wallet” shit, and tha beat outro!! REAL GREAT SHIT from Q-Red, and it’s still goin’ strong!!! LOL, REAL cold ending at 4:40, leavin’ 5 seconds of silence. My Rating: 4.7
06. “Clear The Hole”
Tha title looks catchy, so I HOPE it’s on some TIGHT shit again!!! >>> My ma’fuckin’ boy Q-Red on tha track… AGAIN!!!!! Tha beats just sound more anticipatin’ when I hear ‘em!! Will Kooley hold this one down? That’s him on tha hook, doin’ tha damn thang!! This iz anotha real catchy song here!! Pretty good rappin’ here in tha 1st verse, although I think Duce did a betta job on tha last song. Yea, “breathin’ in this weed smoke;” tight line! Yea, Duce iz on tha 2nd verse!! My ma’fuckin’ dawg here!! Just straight snappin’ on this Q-Red beat!! Really feelin’ what you spittin’ here, as well as tha GRIMY rhymes!!! I really like tha acapella parts; they make it sound more catchy!! Shit, it’s ending! I wish there was anotha verse! My Rating: 4.6
YOU LIKE THIS CONSISTENCY?!? WELL, KEEP IT UP!!!!!
07. “Cloud Nine”
Anotha title that looks like it has tha potential wit me!! Betta be on sum smokin’ shit!!! >>> Who’s “Rich On The Track”? I heard of him before, so this will be anotha time hearin’ him. Okay start, not much in tha hook fa me so far. Okay, 1st verse here, and tha beat ain’t that interesting unfortunately. Sounds like Lil’ Wayne’s R&B side… Not much on tha 1st verse; wish it was a slow, weed smokin’ anthem (like Blu Black’s “Smoke Something” song)! Kooley was on tha 1st verse, and now, Duce, you’re on tha 2nd verse… Like tha “purp smoke” part. What’s wit tha quiet part around tha 1:50 mark? Reminded me of a restaurant. Expected much betta from this one; too soft. My Rating: 2.7
¾time: Well, a mixed up start. Nothin’s decent (which iz VERY rare on a CD); it’s either REAL GREAT or REALLY not for me… We had all tha sweet female songs on tha last CD; let’s just go hard on this one so I can put it on my iPod, ya dig!! Average CD rating for this CD iz currently at a 3.6, which iz sadly 4/10ths less than tha otha CD’s average CD rating in tha middle; this one had 3 FLAMIN’ HOT songs!! Overall, wit tha otha CD combined, tha average CD rating currently stands at a 3.7.
08. “Classified”
No anticipation. >>> Who iz that beat intro? Iz that Q-Red? B-Real? Talk about no anticipation, and look what we have here!! Too bad it’s just a touch under 3:30 (3:23 on tha length). What’s wit tha whisperin’? Please, don’t waste a beat! Good, it got normal at :40! Pretty nice rappin’ from Kooley here. Nothin’ much on tha lyrics, but tha beat holds it down fa him. Interesting “Nintendo cartridges” part wit tha glock cocked sound effect at tha end of tha 1st verse! That producer’s name iz all in tha background of tha beat; who iz it really? Must be someone I neva heard… Tha same type of rappin’ in tha 2nd verse wit nothin’ ta really say. Different kinda song here. My Rating: 3.9
09. “Jealousy”
Could be a good track… Wit a good title like that, I expect a Q-Red beat! >>> Hell no! Wrong this time, but Big Band intro! *Wants ta get my 88 year old grandma!* “GR8 GRANDMA!!!” LOL. Anyway, sounds like a fast beat vs. Big Band; anotha different kinda song. Now, at :49, it went more into a Baton Rouge sound, lol. My boy Duce on tha 1st verse, doin’ his thang on tha rappin’. What’s wit that Big Band hook? Kooley on tha 2nd verse, doin’ a nice job here. Okay 2nd verse here, but above average. Anotha REAL cold ending at 2:48.5; it like cut tha Big Band sample RIGHT off like a ma’fucka, LMAO!! My Rating: 3.5
10. “Make It Happen”
Ooh, 4:22 on tha length! Glad it’s longer, and I KNOW y’all gon “make it happen” wit this song! Q-Red, can you return, please? >>> Yea, my wish just came true!!! “Q-Red on tha track, and he runnin’ this bitch!” More different shit here wit tha hook soundin’ random, but GREAT wit that beat!! Sounds like Kooley on tha 1st verse, “blue raggin’” wit a “blue rag” on tha 1st verse. Beat sounds more on tha Savage type, which I REALLY like!! Nice job wit tha rappin’ on tha 1st verse; good attitude! Yea, my boy Duce on tha 2nd verse!! Ooh, GREAT attitude here!! Keep it up!! Wow, REALLY likin’ tha “leave you ‘like Chilli’ missin’ tha ‘Left Eye’;” punchlines are at top here!! Real great shit here, Duce!! One of your best deliveries!! Yea, couldn’t get enough of Duce, as you’re on tha 3rd verse!!! Just straight RAW SHIT HERE!!! TOO CRAZY OF A VERSE!!! DEFINITELY Duce’s best here!! My Rating: 4.7
11. “Home”
Almost 4 minutes long (3:56)… I don’t know how much I can anticipate this… >>> I knew it was gonna have a weird start fa me… Anotha sample, more on tha R&B side. Tha 1st verse iz here from Kooley, and it’s soundin’ a lil’ betta than tha typical songs that I can’t feel that much. Okay beat here too. Not bad 1st verse; didn’t realize tha hook was for tha females about goin’ “home” and “bet’cha can’t do it on tha dick at home.” Duce, you’re on tha 2nd verse here, not near tha last song, lol. I can picture you in a suit in tha club or somethin’ here wit a drink in your hand… Not bad. Tha rest of this verse iz aight; can’t say anything. Oh no, long-ass outro wit just tha beat (over 45 seconds)… My Rating: 3.3
12. “Do Me”
Looks like anotha female song… >>> I don’t like these soft-ass starts. Tha WRONG consistency!! Sounds like Kooley on tha 1st verse here… Nice “picked like tha lottery” part, as I’m BIG about tha lottery, ya dig! Not bad 1st verse, and tha hook ain’t even on tha female tip. I’m just not big about tha soft beat. Glad y’all “do you.” Duce on tha 2nd verse here… Glad you obsessed wit your “polo horses” ‘cause I LUV polos, and I’m glad you serious about ‘em! My Rating: 3.5
13. “Young Fella Shout Out”
What’s this? I see tha title used 2 lines; could’ve used that for Lil’ Cali’s feature on tha #5 song. >>> Tha beat nearly reminds me of “Can’t Tell Me Nothin’”, only wit a female in tha background… My boy Duce on tha 1st verse here, doin’ a nice job wit tha way you sound. Pretty nice 1st verse here.Finally, a “ya heard me” in this CD, lol! It took 28 songs (I think since tha intro)! Tha 2nd verse here, and I think it’s Kooley this time. Soundin’ pretty good wit tha way tha rappin’ sounds. LOL @ “rap on tha toilet.” Gettin’ kinda raw around 2:10; great rappin’!! Who’s that T-Rock dude at tha end? I like their “shout out.” My Rating: 3.6
14. “Goodnite”
LOL, really? It only 11:27 PM where I’m at. Yea, I’m a late bird! My 65 year-old grandma goes ta bed at around this time too, lol. Tha otha night (few weeks ago), we were up at 1:30 AM! Now, how would you like ta have a “RAPPIN’” grandma like mine, lol? >>> Not sure of tha start here… Not likin’ tha East Coast style. Oh no, annoying vocal background wit that sample. LOL @ “that was tha patron talkin’.” Can’t really say anything about tha 1st verse, so it’s just aight. I’m guessin’ Kooley again on tha 2nd verse? Yea, he said, “I’m from New Orleans,” so that’s him. Nothin’ much in tha 2nd verse. That’s it? Most of these songs have 2 verses… My Rating: 2.6
15. “Pussy Ass Niggas”
Only 1 song left… And tha title looks STRONG!!! Can we have a STRONG-ASS ENDING?!?!? >>> Yea, “hit that J real quick.” Well, looks like anotha disappointment; tha beat again iz pretty soft, and has anotha annoying vocal sample in tha background. Tha lyrics at least are real gangsta here wit tha “glock” and that good shit on here. Boring beat; why ain’t it changin’ anywhere? Sounds like a good hook though. Pretty nice verse from Duce here on tha 2nd verse. I almost didn’t have anythang ta say until tha end of tha verse. Here comes Kooley on tha FINAL verse… Pretty good. Okay ending song. A mix of hard lyrics vs. a boringish beat. My Rating: 3.4
Overall: Well, I thought it would be WAYYYY better, but I guess you have your own music taste. Only 1 song went hard in tha 2nd ½, and a bunch were decent. Not much of a G-Lane style on this CD as I thought it would be. However, I ain’t doubtin’ yo future. I KNOW you gon click up wit sum G-Lane people like Blu Black in tha future! I’m glad you see him here and there, ya dig! Duce, keep doin’ yo thang, keep fuckin’ wit me! Kooley, keep doin’ yo thang, and appreciatin’ what I do! Regardless of my expectations, of course, I’m makin’ a commercial for this CD; I won’t destroy my promise ‘cause I’m loyal like that, you know!
