It’s FrankieThaLuckyDog again, and not sure if this a good thing or bad thing, but I’m reviewin’ a new Lil’ Wayne mixtape. Yea, I’m embarassed, but I’m gonna get it over wit! Here goes my “brave” review for Lil’ Wayne No Ceilings. Start Time: 11:59 PM | End Time: 1:01 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!

01. “Swag Surfin’”
Well, let’s see what you did on this beat… >>> You sound pretty good on this beat. Kinda random here… I can’t picture how people can bump this though… Why iz this a whole verse? It ain’t even broken up into a hook or nothin’? That’s a deduction for this length! I thought this would be like Da Drought 3 or somethin’… Tha rhymes are pretty good (I like tha “I leave her Microsoft like Windows Vista” or whateva it was line), but it was too long of a verse. My Rating: 3.7
02. “Ice Cream Paint Job”
LOL @ this beat choice… >>> By now, you’re just borin’ fa me… There’s like no excitin’ catch in your rappin’ anymore… At least you’re not rappin’ on Auto-Tune here, but tha rappin’ iz good here! Now, it doesn’t have ta do wit tha title, but it’s whateva. LOL @ 1:33; I smiled! You said, “pistol on my hip, Tomb Raider!” You KNOW I luv Tomb Raider; what up, Lara Croft!? I felt this one better than tha last one, especially since this was shorter. I felt your flow better, although tha rhymes were pretty much equal to tha last one. My Rating: 3.8
03. “D.O.A.”
I hope you REALLY cause “D. [on Your] A.” ‘cause it ruined you!! >>> I can feel tha rhymes comin’ through harder on this one than tha last 2 songs. Glad you “drink verses and eat hooks!” LOL @ tha “spit hangin’ from my mouth, retard flow” and tha “I say what I want like an award show;” this iz DEFINITELY betta right here! Tha rhymes are DEFINITELY great in tha 2nd verse, so this iz DEFINITELY a plus! I must say that tha 3rd verse iz not that bad for what it iz… I did like tha “2 women praise me like Mary Mary” part though. My Rating: 4.4
04. Interlude
This could be good… I wanna know what you got ta say! >>> You KNOW I luv tha soundin’ of tha lightin’ up tha blunt, ya dig! Nice lil’ interlude right here, and thanx for it! My Rating: N/A
05. “Wasted”
LOL, let’s see what you did on this beat… >>> I hear you lightin’ up dat blunt in tha beginning, so that’s a plus! You sound a lil’ kiddie on tha vocals at times here, so I don’t know ‘bout dat… Still comin’ through wit tha interestin’ rhymes here, more on tha explicit female tip! Nice “hot head/global warming” part; that was tight. It’s soundin’ good at about 2:40 wit tha “Energizer bunny” part wit tha way you sound. LOL @ you “always good like grandma cookies!” Pretty good here, I must say. My Rating: 4.0
06. “Watch My Shoes”
This beat this time? Let’s see what happens… >>> Finally, a Louisiana beat, lol! Tha rhymes are okay for a start. It’s still on your level, although it’s just good; that’s all. From 1:20 on, it’s gettin’ boring. “Had ta pause for a minute?” Should’ve ended this freestyle! Every like 30 seconds, my rating just keeps droppin’ lil’ by lil’ ‘cause of tha non-stop/non-catchy rappin’ here! My Rating: 2.6
07. “Break Up” Feat. Short Dawg & Gudda Gudda
LOL, you were tha START of why this beat was like this, lol! I wonder what err-body gon sound like on here… >>> Your flow sounds betta on this one. You did an okay job on your verse… Wow, I’m finally reviewin’ a Short Dawg verse afta I’ve known him fa 4 years, lol!! I think he got drenched inta tha whole Cash Money/Young Money thing… His voice iz still a lil’ cool, although I kinda lost interest fa those non-Louisiana mainstream people. Let’s see dis Gudda Gudda dude on tha 3rd part… He’s soundin’ decent; just okay here. My Rating: 3.4
08. “Banned From TV”
I dunno this title… What’s goin’ on here? >>> I don’t tha beat, but I guess you chose a better beat this time. You’re back to tha faster flow here, and it’s soundin’ pretty good. So far, it’s soundin’ good, although it may get borin’ after a while… It’s soundin’ a lil’ betta durin’ tha 2:00 mark area. And just like me on my college’s news, “I’m a teleprompter;” that’s what I do currently! My Rating: 3.6
½time: An okay start… You’re still comin’ through pretty good wit tha rhymes and flow, although sometimes, you know I get bored from you. Tha beats are pretty good that you chose, although sometimes I feel that they’re performed on decently. Tha average CD rating stands at a 3.6 right now.
09. “Throw It In The Bag (Remix)”
LOL @ this “remix;” how will you do on it? >>> Oh, a different beat… I rather’ve heard tha original beat. Glad you’re “swimmin’ in polo, sleepin’ in Jordan’s;” thumbs up! Nice job on tha 1st verse, although this hook (for this remix) iz weird wit tha sample; ewe… I have nothin’ really ta say about tha 2nd verse; nothin’ ta quote. Hopefully, there’s no 3rd verse; time’s runnin’ out! My Rating: 2.9
10. “I Think I Love Her” Feat. Tyga & Shanell
This looks like a new song? Regardless, I’m not really havin’ tha anticipation fa it. >>> Whateva tha beat iz, I don’t know it. Sounds like Tyga on tha 1st verse, comin’ through hard on this slow flow here. I always stereotype him as a Pop rapper wit tha whole “Coconut Juice” song from last year. Soundin’ gr8 wit tha whole “vitality” part, and got betta at 1:16 wit tha fastness!! Nice job wit tha 1st verse, includin’ tha pace change! Now, you’re on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit a slow flow like Tyga at 1st. You’re switchin’ up your voice a lil’ bit at around 2:08 wit tha “I’m tha shit” type of voice. There’s nothin’ bad about this whole song so far. Nice job… Oh, a female on tha 3rd verse… Good thing she rappin’ ‘cause she’s at least not borin’! LOL @ tha “hol’ up, here’s a napkin” part! My Rating: 3.8
11. Interlude #2 Feat. Shanell
LOL, a feature on tha interlude! I guess this one’ll be okay, or about fuckin’? >>> Gotta light tha blunt in tha beginning! Everything iz aight here as far as this review. Thanx for what you mean by No Ceilings as tha title (wit tha “sky’s tha limit” thing). My Rating: N/A
12. “Wetter”
L-O-L! >>> Gotta light tha blunt in tha beginning on this one too, lol. Tha beginning iz tha same as tha original song; let’s see when you come in… It was before :40; that was quick, lol. Tha verse iz soundin’ okay; tha lyrics are gr8 for tha females though. Tha flow iz nice and real, real slow fa this too! No repeatin’ tha hook, lol? You just want tha whole song I assume, lol. Now, you made tha hook come in at 2:44 again. Tha hook iz just about a minute long… My Rating: 3.9
13. “I’m Good” Feat. T-Streets
New beat? I don’t know tha featured artist; let’s see here… >>> Sounds like it off to a New York type of start. Your 1st verse iz startin’ off Baseball style, lol. Tha flow iz interestin’ here; sounds like you REALLY inta “gettin’ head” and all kinds of otha shit, lol! Pretty good on tha 1st verse, and tha hook iz pretty catchy wit tha title repeatin’. Ooh, iz dat T-Streets on tha 2nd verse? REALLY feelin’ how he’s spittin’! I like how he’s “got da pillz” and all dat good shit fa tha streetz! Too bad it was only 2 verses, but I was feelin’ this one right here! My Rating: 4.1
14. “Poke Her Face” Feat. Jae Millz
OMG… LOL!! >>> You’re GaGa’d out here, lol! You’re imitatin’ tha Kid Cudi flow on tha 1st verse here, and this song always sounded like it could cheer you up wit tha flow and tha whole Lady GaGa Acoustic sample of “Poker Face,” lol. You did a good job, but do I have ta say anything about Jae on tha 2nd verse? I feel like he’s SO Cash Money brainwashed wit what he spits; NO LONGER any tightness! My Rating: 3.6
15. “Run This Town”
Anotha LOL; you LUV your beats!! >>> LOL @ this song goin’ Pop and even bein’ on an Adult Contemp/Disco station! Now, you’re comin’ through tough on tha 1st verse here, “runnin’ this fuckin’ track like a street car,” ya dig! Good job wit tha rappin’ on this one, so you get a plus fa feelin’ your idol, Jay-Z, when it comes to tha beats. I didn’t realize how short this was cut down to, so it’s just one verse. You did a good job on this shit, so your rhymes were DEFINITELY consistent here! My Rating: 4.0
16. “I Gotta Feeling”
LOL, Wayne, you’re on your faster shit right now, lol! >>> Lemme ask you, Wayne: You know tha producer on this song? I do (David Guetta); did you know dat? LOL @ you rappin’ on 128 BPM right here! It’s just okay rappin’ here, as it just regularly fits wit a Dance-type track here. You even squeezed a 2nd verse here… Now, you got tha right flow here, and it’s soundin’ good here wit this beat! Nice job wit tha 2nd verse; gr8 ending song fa this mixtape! My Rating: 3.7
17. Outro
Let’s see how you gon end this… >>> Of course, tha blunt! LOL, speakin’ of David Guetta, there’s a “Sexy Bitch” beat in tha background, lol! As I previously said, “LOL @ you rappin’ on 128 BPM right here!” Now, it’s, “LOL @ you talkin’ on 130 BPM right here!” It was just an okay outro… I seemed like I focused more on tha beat, lol. My Rating: N/A
Overall: Well, it was more interestin’ than embarassin’ this time. REAL GLAD you “D.O.A.’d” for this CD ‘cause tha Auto-Tune wasn’t called for at all wit your style!! I don’t know what else ta say, but ta keep doin’ it big at 27!
