Review #338: One-i & Pigg "Anti-Social"

Reviewed on 12.04.2009 (Review #338)




FrankieThaLuckyDog back in tha buildin’… ‘Bout ta get a bunch of reviewz outta my way before anymore come in! Got like a record-setting 26, 27 CDs ta review, and I’ll just review ‘em quick: 1st up: One-i & Pigg Anti-Social; here goes my review! Start Time: 1:04 PM | End Time: 2:42 PM



Quick Note: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0. Each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself with 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) so 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.

01. DJ Scrap Intro
Let’s see how this intro sounds. >>> FINALLY back in review mode!! And hearin’ a HOT beat like this for tha intro (as well as tha mixin’ wit One-i & Pigg), it makes me wanna review so much at once! I gon make it happen!! My Rating: N/A


02. “Fighter”
Produced by Vybe I see; I wonder how he sounds? >>> I knew it, it was tha beat from tha intro! REAL GLAD ta see a new producer on tha grind like this!! And tha song iz just GR8; GR8 collaboration hook!! Gotta luv One-i’s “hurdlin’” 1st verse, ya dig! Gotta start tha mixtape off wit a REAL GR8 song; that’s EXACTLY what a mixtape iz!! Great job spittin’ tha 1st verse, i; str8 motivational shit right here!! Here iz Pigg on tha 2nd verse, tha 1st time I’m hearin’ a verse from him… He sounds gr8 on this track and I really look forward ta hearin’ more from him in tha future! When typin’ his name in DatPiff, I found a mixtape of his on there, so that’s watz good (it gon get reviewed when I can). REAL GR8 startin’ song!! My Rating: 4.7


03. “Throwed Off” Feat. Cas
Cas tha white boy from BR? This would be cool ta hear him on a collaboration wit y’all; lookin’ forward!! >>> GR8 mixin’ here; likin’ tha transitions!! Anotha REAL GOOD beat here!! Hearin’ tha hook clearly (right before it ended), and it sounded cool. Looks like this mixtape gon go REAL hard!! Will it be tha best outta tha x amount of STS Records CDs I gotta review, lol? Gr8 rappin’ from dat boy One-i on tha 1st verse; street shit! Gr8 shit on tha 1st verse, and tha hook goes hard like tha last song! “Oink oink” @ tha 2nd verse, lol (Pigg’s on it)! He sounds like he’s got a “heart” on this shit right here wit how he’s spittin’! Gr8 shit once again!! I like tha “get cut” line; razor-bladin’ shit right here!! Let’s see what Cas will do on tha 3rd verse… I guess that’s him. When I was hearin’ him on A-Mar & Dyl’s shit, I couldn’t tell between Dyl and him at times, but it’s soundin’ good! All y’all spittin’ street shit, rippin’ these tracks apart!! Glad he “doesn’t ‘get silly’;” thumbs up fa bein’ V.I.C.less! My Rating: 4.4


04. “Truth Behind The Lies” Feat. Prince Blakk
That’s a new way ta ID (and I like it): Sayin’ “Featured & Produced by;” good shit! Not sure if I remember who Prince Blakk iz/was, but I’m sure he did his thang on this beat AND on tha feature!! Exposin’ dem fakes right now!!! >>> REALLY fast hi-hats here, and tha beat sounds like a REAL GR8 creepy sound; really feelin’ it!! Pretty good intro; hope tha song can live up to it! Tha 1st verse from Pigg sounds gr8 on tha beat, so this’ll be ANOTHA BIG PLU$!!! He sounds raw on this shit, so it’s a DEFINITE banga to tha fullest!! Gotta friend request him so he can see what I do! Great job on tha 1st verse. Tha hook iz good, although I didn’t expect tha singin’; it fits good though. Keepin’ this shit goin’ wit One-i on tha 2nd verse! I like tha rhymes here; nice “singin’ Pop music” line. Gr8 endin’ to tha verse wit tha “supposed ta press tha reset button” part! I thought there would be a 3rd verse, but due to Blakk was on tha hook, I guess there was only 2. LOL @ tha start to tha next song! Sounds REALLY gr8, nearly remindin’ me of a spaced out/slower version of Real Profit Ent.’s “Inside Fistbox, Outside Gunplay!” I also like how it ended before it went to tha next song! My Rating: 4.3


05. “I’m Good” Feat. Prince Blakk
When I saw his name again, I thought he was gonna produce tha track again, but it’s produced by Fly & Flashy Productions. Wit tha GR8 intro it had when I heard it on tha last song, I’m SURE it’ll sound GR8!! >>> Again wit tha singin’ here… Cool beat, although it sounded betta wit tha last song; it’s still tight though. Sounded like it went REAL HARD wit tha beat sounds (like a gunshot?) from :27 - :30! Here’s One-i on tha 1st verse, deliverin’ FLAMES!!! Nice “laser printer” line; REAL shit here!! I like how he said, “ma’fucka;” RAW!! Here’s tha Pigg, oinkin’ his way through tha 2nd verse in a REAL GR8 way!! Nothin’ but ta go RAW on these tracks!! Gotta feel his ending to tha 2nd verse; GR8 shit!! What’s up wit tha female in tha next song? I HOPE she sounds good wit a gr8 beat! My Rating: 4.2


06. “Let Go”
Now a 2 Toxic beat; glad y’all got a variety of GR8 producers (1st time listenin’ for me once again)!! Since tha female ain’t on tha feature, I’m assumin’ it’s just a sample? Betta not be bad! >>> Nice start wit Pigg on tha 1st verse; pretty good beat. “Anybody that’s real gon feel this?” I guess I’ll DEFINITELY feel it! Oh, I heard tha 2 Toxic tag in tha beat! I heard of his tags before (producin’ Tha G.T.’s “Put Me At Ease”), so I’m glad I now know who he iz! Just like wit Tha G.T.’s lyrical song, this sounds good fa what it iz, no matter what tha hook iz. Tha sample sounds pretty good wit how tha hook sounds; good shit. One-i’s on tha 2nd verse as 2 Toxic’s tag repeats constantly, lol. Sounds like One-i’s rappin’ from tha heart here; good shit! Towards tha end of tha verse, it sounds like this was a tribute to those that died. My Rating: 4.1


07. “That’s Me”
Yea!! Vybe on tha track again!! Just so you know, those 5 songs weren’t meant ta be ranked from highest ta lowest; that’s just how it went ‘cause you KNOW I heard them all for tha 1st time! This song could break that chain; let’s see… >>> It sounds good for a start; you KNOW you holdin’ it down, One-i!! Oh, aight; tha beat finally changed fully at :33! This iz definitely anotha hot beat once again from dat boy Vybe!! Nice job from Pigg on tha 1st verse, holdin’ it down! You a fool, One-i, on tha hook! I heard Vybe’s beat tag right when tha 2nd verse started! I guess I know him then ‘cause his tag sounds like tha word “body;” that’s what I thought it was at first, lol. Good job on tha 2nd verse, One-i; not a boring moment! My Rating: 4.3


08. “Hammond Or Die”
FINALLY, a Hammond anthem!! Let’s see how it all goes down!! >>> Who did this beat? It sounds cool as fuck, ESPECIALLY wit tha hook!! REAL GOOD shit right here, as you holdin’ down tha hook betta than tha last song!! Nice elements in tha 1st verse from you, One-i; tha shit iz unstoppable!! Mr. Pigg on tha 2nd verse, soundin’ pretty good on this, although One-i sounded like he was crushin’ boulders wit his verse! I like tha pitch decrease at 2:42; lol, cool shit. My Rating: 4.5


09. “Excuse Me” Feat. Lil’ Witness
As we’re Prince Blakkless for this feature, he hops on just tha production! And wit Witness on it, tha manner level should be really low ‘cause this gon be REALLY HOT (meanin’ there shouldn’t be an “excuse me” greeting ‘cause this joint gon tear da roof off)!! >>> Tha intro sounds good wit Pigg on it. Now, tha beat transitioned gr8 from tha previous joint, and sounds pretty good! Sounds like this gon be “huge soundin’” like a boulder! Tha hook sounds gr8 wit One-i on it; sounds like mixin’ in tha hook almost? Either way, it’s DEFINITELY watz good wit tha beat! Nice 2nd verse wit all tha “hella” parts, combin’ wit a “helicopter!” Tha end to tha 2nd verse was RAW wit tha “hospital” part; you a beast, One-i!! Here’s Witness, witnessin’ a REAL TIGHT verse as he spits it on tha 3rd verse!! I like tha early mixin’ at 2:58; REAL GR8 verse right here!! ANOTHA REAL GR8 endin’ to tha verse wit tha whole “battle” thing!! Glad y’all got tha “ending verse” formula of makin’ it standout!! My Rating: 4.4


½time: Off to such a REAL, REAL GOOD START!!! This whole entire mixtape iz just BANGA AFTA BANGA AFTA BANGA!!! Keep up tha gr8 work ‘cause tha two of y’all are REALLY doin’ tha damn thang together on this mixtape, calculatin’ an average CD rating of a whoppin’ 4.4 for tha ½time!!


10. “Play A Game (Saw)”
Interesting title! When I “saw” tha “Saw” in tha ID, I thought it was gon say “Skit,” but based off tha 3:01 length, it’s DEFINITELY a song; here we go!! >>> TIGHT start here; these songs DON’T sound like shit!! NONE OF THEM!!! Sounds like a lot goin’ on wit tha REAL GR8 beat wit a REAL GR8 hook!! One-i doin’ tha damn thang on tha 1st verse, rappin’ this shit to tha fullest!! Pigg iz here on tha 2nd verse, and he sounds REAL gutta on this verse right here wit tha CRAZY beat!! Glad I got ALL this music for my radio shift!! FYI: I been playin’ Da Gremlins “Gangsta Walk” on my radio show, so that’s sum MVP Ent. luv, ya dig! My Rating: 4.6


11. “Forgot About Me”
Who could? >>> Tha beats STILL continue ta do tha damn thang!! That’s a WHOPPIN’ 10 beats in a row!! A lil’ weird wit tha hook, but at least tha beat goes hard!! Typical people would make such a depressin’ beat wit a hook like this, but y’all add tha “tightness” to it!! Pigg iz on tha 1st verse, and he sounds REAL GR8 on this track and beat!! One-i doin’ tha damn thang on tha 2nd verse here. Wit one of tha songs earlier, I said that Pigg didn’t really have a chance on One-i on tha song. Now, it’s tha opposite here, although One-i doin’ a gr8 job! My Rating: 4.0


12. “Bring It Back” Feat. Cas
Glad you brought Cas “back,” lol. Should be ANOTHA banga!! >>> This iz more on tha catchy side than fully tight side. Tha beat sounds good and tha hook iz definitely catchy wit tha title! LOL @ tha start to tha 1st verse wit tha, “ain’t nobody fuckin’ witcha…” part! Pretty good job on tha 1st verse, my boy. Here’s Cas on tha 2nd verse… Now he sounds more like tha Dyl style here than on tha previous feature he was on. He sounds catchy like this song, so that’s a plus! Sounded like it took a while fa Pigg ta come up fa this song, but here he iz on tha 3rd verse! Just like tha last song, he doin’ a NICE job on this song too! REAL GLAD he, “touched so many hearts;” that’s watz good!! My Rating: 4.1


13. “It’s Nothing”
Typical title, so let’s see how it goes… >>> Sounded like an ordinary start, but tha hook REALLY took off!! Now, it’s DEFINITELY not typical; it’s tight!! Gr8 job, One-i!! Pigg iz on tha 1st verse, and he’s 3x a charm here ‘cause he’s RIPPIN’ UP tha 1st verse!!! One-i iz on tha 2nd verse, and he soundin’ GR8 on this one too!! LOL @ tha beat and how it stopped right before tha 2:00 mark; that was a trick, lol. This joint felt real short… My Rating: 4.5


14. “Target Practice”
LOL @ tha production credit as Beats How U Want ‘Em. If I’m not mistaken, on Lil’ Boosie & Hurricane Chris’s Category 7: Bad Azz Hurricane CD, I found out it was Rodney who had that tag (‘cause it played in tha song). Anyway, wit a GR8 title like this, I should REALLY look forward ta this one!! >>> This iz DEFINITELY HOT!! I like tha hook (sounds like a Weezy sample?) and tha beat iz DEFINITELY one of tha BEST on here!!! Pigg on tha 1st verse, and he might as well get tha 4x status ‘cause he’s REALLY doin’ tha damn thang on his verse!! Too bad this anotha unda 3:00 song. Nice job on tha 1st verse and it even ended so fast, lol. Let’s see how raw One-i comes through on tha 2nd verse… *Shocked* For tha 1st time on this mixtape, it’s a solo joint! We’re One-iless ‘cause Pigg stole tha 2nd verse!! It all good ‘cause it’s DEFINITELY a RAW verse!!! All tha lyrics go hard and tha beat just iz CRAZY!!! My Rating: 4.8


15. Bo National Drop
After all dat CRAZINESS of 13 STR8 BANGAZ, we take a break; let’s see this drop… >>> Nice drop. I gotta get a BUNCH fa my radio show by next month so I can start playin’ bumpers on my radio show! Glad y’all got y’all representaz!! My Rating: N/A


16. “I Run My City” Feat. Bo National
When I saw tha name for tha drop, I thought his name was just Bo, but I’m glad he’s “national” too, lol! This should be REAL HOT also!! >>> Okay, this iz DEFINITELY a NICE beat start; it has a 100% Baton Rouge/Louisiana feel to it!! Tha hook iz DEFINITELY nice here!!! REAL GR8 anthem like tha “Hammond Or Die” song!! Exposin’ tha fake on tha 1st verse; thumbs up!! Bo National a FOOL wit tha hook and now this 1st verse (I think that’s him)!! SO FUCKIN’ TIGHT!!! He should do a drop fa my radio show, ya dig!! Err-body gon do a drop fa me ‘cause I show tha MOST luv fa Louisiana outside of Louisiana!! When I was signin’ up fa my radio shift for next semester yesterday, outta five questions asked, four of them had “Louisiana” in tha answers, lol! That’s how DEDICATED I am!! One-i flowin’ REAL GOOD on tha 2nd verse; this iz DEFINITELY tha shit right here!!! Let’s see this 3rd verse here… REAL GR8 shit here!! I don’t know if I’m confused or not, but I believe it’s Pigg on tha 3rd verse? My bad for tha confusion… I’ll fix it if it’s wrong. Gotta LUV tha weed/pill/hood references!!! My Rating: 4.7


17. “I Don’t Believe You” Feat. Focussed
Switchin’ it up ta K.E.V. on tha track; let’s see how it can last!! >>> Anotha Baton Rouge style beat here that sounds REAL GOOD for a start!! This iz on a REAL HIGH TIGHT level!!! One-i did tha damn thang on tha hook and tha 1st verse sounds like Lil’ Cali, but I believe it’s Pigg doin’ tha damn thang too! Gr8 job on tha 1st verse and once again, One-i, tha hook iz just CRAZY!!! And ta prove dat it was CRAZY, One-i’s even on tha 2nd verse!! Gotta feel tha hood lyrics too on tha 2nd verse; no wonder it’s tha longest song on this CD (4:28)!! Here’s tha 3rd verse (once again, I’m a lil’ confused, but I think it’s Focussed), soundin’ grimy!! Gotta luv err-body’s voices for this Rap shit!!! Nice endin’ also to tha verse wit tha “sweet like bread” line; gutta shit here!! My Rating: 4.6


18. “Gutta”
Did y’all forget tha last song on tha back cover? Now y’all gotta make me look on DatPiff… *Checks* PERFECT title fa a mixtape that’s SO “GUTTA,” YA DIG!!! >>> Tha intro sounds REAL GR8 wit tha sample sayin’ “gutta,” ya dig!! I think it’s really sayin’ “got ta?” That’s what it sounds like when you hear it so much; LUV tha EXTREME repetitiveness of tha sample from :26 - :30ish!!! Tha beat then kicked in, and it’s REAL “GUTTA,” ya dig!!! One-i doin’ nothin’ but tha BEST on tha 1st verse wit this REAL GR8 beat!!! Now here’s big dawg Pigg on tha 2nd verse!! Gotta luv his start wit tha “rollin’ off a pill” in tha 2nd verse!! Tha “muthafuckin’” part towards tha end of tha 2nd verse sounded like it was off-beat for a second. Either way, REAL GR8 job wit dat verse!! I think it’s real rare that tha last song on a mixtape becomes my favorite; this could be a 1st for a Rap CD!! That cold ending was DEFINITELY watz good!!! My Rating: 4.8


Overall: What a REALLY GR8 CD!!! One-i & Pigg DEFINITELY deserve future collaboration mixtapes, ya dig!! This mixtape held it DOWN from start ta finish; ALL 4.0 or higher ratings (which makes this an automatic 5* rated CD)!!! Keep up tha gr8 work, and One-i, I got MUCH MORE ta review fa you comin’ up, lol!

There were two 4.8’s, two 4.7’s, two 4.6’s, two 4.5’s, two 4.4’s AND two 4.3’s, lol!! I don’t think I’ve eva seen two of tha same ratings repeat 6x in a row like dat ‘til now!! Once again, One-i’s BEST appearance on a mixtape!!
