Review #291: Big Flow "Superman Vol. 1"

Reviewed on 8.18.2009 (Night of 8.17.2009) (Review #291)


FrankieThaLuckyDog... STILL HERE!! LMAO!! I'm grindin' WAY TOO HARD!! But nah, I would be sleepin' by now. It's just, this next CD, I popped it in, and it was only unda 30 minutse long, so you KNOW I got tha time ta review it, ya dig!! Comin' outta dat 337 in Louisiana, here's my review for Big Flow "Superman Vol. 1"! Thanx to tha Camp Life representative for sendin' it to me in tha mail! BTW, I have no tracklisting (and even looked online), so it'll be a blind review. When I get a tracklisting, I'll re-edit this review wit info! Start Time: 1:12 AM | End Time: 1:44 AM


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!

8.20.2009 EDIT: Thanx to Big Flow himself, I got tha tracklisting!


01. "Ain't A Stain On Me"
1st song's up... >>> Lots of "stains" in tha beginning, lol. I hear tha beat finally come on at :27, and it sounds like I'm anticipatin' tha beginning sound 'cause it has them Louisiana symbols! Yea, tha beat sounds nice, ESPECIALLY wit tha audience cheerin' & chantin'! Yea, thumbs up to you "gettin' that work, and flippin' it quick!" Real nice job on that 1st verse, and this joint iz pretty catchy! Yea, "it ain't a stain on you!" Soundin' like you keepin' it fresh on tha 2nd verse. I'm REAL GLAD you "be on that purp, blowin' back 2 back;" fuckin' luv err-body on dat good shit, ya dig! A betta 2nd verse right there; glad you "in tha trap" wit this Rap shit right chea! My Rating: 4.4


02. "I Get It In"
Tha next song; hope it's just as good (or betta) as tha last song!! >>> Yea, a NICE beat intro here!! Sounds like a Hyphy beat here; I like it! Glad you "get that doe," and "get it in;" you deserve it! Nice flow here on tha 1st verse! Good job deliverin' tha 1st verse right there! Nice start to tha 2nd verse wit "roll like coke" and tha "coconuts" part; great rappin'! Stayin' up-ta-date wit yaself; that's watz up! A 3rd verse here, and yea, you DO "spit sick like you got a cold;" tight line right there! NICE "leave a nigga curled up like a macaroni" part, lol! My Rating: 4.3


03. "Monster"
Song #3! I don't know what ta say... >>> Now, tha beat sounds more Georgia style. It went into tha 1st verse :24 in. Tha flow iz a lil' slow here, but it ain't that bad. Aight job done on tha 1st verse. What a "gremlin" you are on tha hook, lol. Well, not wit tha flow, but "how you livin'" wit this Rap shit. I liked tha hook, so that's a definite plus! Tha rhymes are DEFINITELY nice on tha 2nd verse, ESPECIALLY 'round 2:07! My Rating: 4.1


04. "I'm Just Keeping It Real"
A longer song here (about 5:00 on tha length)! Hope it's good! >>> Sounds like an ol' skool Louisiana beat here from tha 90's! Yea, you "Coogi down," so that's a fuckin' plus!! Nice typical street dude in tha South's lyrics for tha 1st verse here; gotta luv tha "weed" type lyrics too! "Your flow iz sick; it needs an operation." I REALLY liked that line right there! And, "this iz how you live," wit this shit! Tha 2nd verse here, and LOL @ "wipe me down wit toilet paper 'cause I'm tha shit." Too bad tha gurl's "favorite song iz 'Lollipop'." That song was SO 2008, and iz left there! Nice job on tha 2nd verse though! Tha 3rd verse iz here, and glad you "tryna hit a gold mine;" I'm tryin' wit scratch-offs (been since '98)! Nice job on tha 3rd verse, keepin' this rappin' consistent! A beat outro of about a minute long? That's pretty nice, ESPECIALLY on tha ol' skool tip! My Rating: 4.3


½time: Sounds like we have a NICE CD right here from dat boy Big Flow! Keep doin' ya thang wit this Rap shit, ya heard me! Keep stayin' fresh wit all dat Coogi, and keep smokin' dat good shit! Average CD rating iz currently 4.3!!


05. "You Don't Know Me" Feat. Lil' Young Of Da DGC
Over 4 minutes in length, so this should be anotha hood banga! >>> Beat sounds like it outta space or somethin', lol! Sounds like a featured artist in tha beginning. He said his name was "Lil' Young?" If that so, that odd 'cause I fuck wit a Glen Oaks dude Lil' Young a.k.a. YoungCam Tha Yungstar. Anyway, tha beat iz REAL nice, and that 1st verse was REAL nice!! Yea, they "don't know!" That Lil' Young dude on tha 2nd verse, and I like his voice/flow on this; sounds like he won't give up! Uh oh, he "can make tha left hand go right/write!" DEFINITELY a nice 2nd verse also!! I like that "you don't know me, dawg" lil' background part at 2:34, and I also heard "dawg" again at 2:44 too! You're finally here, on tha 3rd verse, "killin' it" wit tha otha people on here! Great motivational 3rd verse right there, doin' this shit like it easy!! My Rating: 4.6


06. "Riding, Blowing"
I wonder how we gon change from that previous song? >>> First song (that I know of) on a jacked beat. You call it "Ridin', Blowin'" over tha "Pourin' Up" beat from Pimp C/Mike Jones/Bun B. That hook iz DEFINITELY nice wit tha "they got weed, they got pills, whateva yo heart desire!" That's a NICE part right there, and you "anti-white people'd" wit this Rap shit, as you said, "just don't tell them white folks." I'm white, but you KNOW I fuck wit my Louisiana dudes to tha FULLEST, ya dig!! Tha 1st verse has that original "Pourin' Up" flow, only much fasta!! REAL NICE wit tha rappin' on tha 1st verse!! That hook iz SOOOOOO tight!! Tha 2nd verse here doin' tha damn thang just like tha 1st verse!! REAL GREAT flow on this shit!! Tha hook sounds like C-Loc a lil' wit tha voice/tha way it's said; that's a REAL GOOD LOOK if you sound like Loc on this shit!! Tha hook REALLY helped this get a NICE-ASS rating from me!! My Rating: 4.7


07. "40 Bars (The Man Right Now)"
Much shorter here (just about 2:30)... >>> Iz this called "Street Strength Of 1,000 Gorillas"? If that so, that's a NICE title/topic!! Tha beat sounds like a slow Mystikal beat ta me; iz it jacked? I like tha emergency shit at :40; it's still goin' 'til :53! Real nice rappin' wit that nice, undaground flow on this too! More of just a freestyle here, but it rollin' through now! Tha "anybody could get... zipped up" part at about 2:07; gutta shit right here! I really like how you said "dawg" twice at tha end when you were talkin' for about 10 seconds! My Rating: 4.2


08. "Bake Money"
One more song left... I wonder what gon come outta it? >>> Yea, NICE beat start to tha last song!! A Lil' Wayne sample on tha hook (sayin' "bake money?"), and it sounds nice! I'm assumin' this song iz called "Bake Money"; great shit here!! You soundin' NICE on tha 1st verse, C-Loc vocal style here! Very "mall'd up" on this 1st verse, as you just gettin' err-thang you want! Glad you "bakin' money" where "it's gettin' tall" and shit; you KNOW it all yours, dawg! Great beat soundin' in tha beginning of tha 2nd verse; great rappin' too! Nice job on that 2nd verse, just bakin' tha money 'til it stops!! Here's tha last verse... "flow foreign like an Asian;" there's NO decent wit this dude rappin'!! Speakin' of foreign, shout out to my grandpa Grandpa Piggy for tellin' my grandma this joke this gurl/person said ta someone: "Iz she Chinese? No, she's sleepin';" LMFAO! My Rating: 4.5


Overall: Well, I didn't expect this CD (based off a blind review) ta be THIS GOOD, but it was!! You did yo thang on all tha tracks on here, and I now know who you are!! Keep doin' ya thang wit this Rap shit, and err-thang you want!!
