Wat up? FrankieThaLuckyDog here again and I finna do anotha review. This one iz for DJ 5150 and he mixin’ up Baton Rouge and New Orleans right now wit his NO To The BR (Louisiana Bound) mixtape, ya dig! It gon be a battle so here goes my review fa DJ 5150 NO To The BR (Louisiana Bound)! Start Time: 11:02 PM | End Time: 12.13.2009 @ 11:43 AM
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.
© 2009 CD Review by FrankieThaLuckyDog. Other than tha main artist or affiliated people with tha main artist, this review iz to not be used in anyone else’s words!
01. B.G. Intro
Let’s see what he gotta say fa this intro… >>> Of course, you gotta luv B.G., ESPECIALLY how he sounds when he says shit! Definitely a good lil’ short intro from him! My Rating: N/A
02. B.G. Feat. Magnolia Chop “Back To The Money (Remix)”
No artist listed? Do they mean it’s B.G.’s song or Magnolia’s? I’m a lil’ confused so let’s see what’ll happen on this The Future beat… >>> Okay, it’s B.G.’s. I guess they forgot ta list it as his song ‘cause of him doin’ tha intro. Tha beat iz cool and he soundin’ cool on tha 1st verse. Magnolia Chop does it real gr8 wit tha singin’ on tha hook; it sounds like it’s at a noticeable quality!
Tha 2nd verse fits too; good job here. Also keepin’ it real wit tha 3rd verse deliverin’ more street shit. Nice start ta this mixtape right here. My Rating: 4.203. Lil’ Cali & Mouse On Tha Track “Just Because”
I still haven’t gotten tha chance ta review their mixtape (of tha same title). I’m hoping within tha next few dayz but fa now, let’s see what they about on this mixtape and this song!! >>> I was ‘bout ta say, lol @ tha hook!! It sounded cool and when I heard tha title, it just made me luv Mouse’s voice more!! LMAO @ how he said tha title!!!
Tha 1st verse from Mouse sounds like it’s DEFINITELY tha shit to tha fullest!!! REAL, REAL GR8 flow here!!! ROFL @ his flow and these lyrics!! They’re just EXTREMELY catchy and so iz this song!!! Lil’ Cali iz on tha 2nd verse and he does his own thang on this joint too. This’ll be prolly a HUGE one fa ’10 fa me since I’ll prolly add it real soon!! My Rating: 4.804. Mannie Fresh “The Boss”
How will he make a comeback on here? >>> Tha intro sounds catchy but why iz this beat all on a slow tip? I think tha keys and err-thang in tha beat could’ve been changed. Tha 1st verse was okay fa what it was. Tha hook sounds like it’s good. I still wish tha beat could at least change at times! LOL, I was nearly fallin’ asleep while tha 2nd verse was on (no offense) and towards tha end of it, I thought I heard my music business ringtone. LOL, it damn near woke me back up, lol!! Once again, tha 2nd verse flowed pretty good wit this song except tha beat at times. Tha 3rd verse was good too fa this. My Rating: 3.7
05. Magnolia Chop Feat. Kidd Kidd “She Want Me”
I wonder what kinda collab this gon lead into? >>> This iz a pretty good/betta beat fa a start. Magnolia sounds pretty catchy in tha beginning wit his singin’ flow. It’s slowly becomin’ more catchy wit Magnolia on tha verse! LOL @ tha simple hook wit just tha title! Tha short-ass 2nd verse was catchy too fa this. We got tha N.O. Kidd Kidd here instead of tha BR one fa tha 3rd verse… Catchy rhymes and good shit from him! My Rating: 4.3
06. Lil’ Boosie Feat. Bad Azz Ent. “’Bout That”
I wonder how good this one’ll be? How many Bad Azz Ent. members will I hear? >>> LOL, a jacked beat fa Boosie? How odd… Ain’t he WAY TOO BIG ta be on jacked beats? They kept it Louisiana fa this wit tha “’Bout It” beat here. Glad Boosie gave a shout out ta “Gardere Lane.”
He’s pretty catchy fa this joint here. Now I wonder who can be on tha 2nd verse (from Bad Azz Ent.)? It flowed pretty good; lookin’ forward ta hearin’ otha members! LOL, a lil’ dude on tha 3rd verse? It’s a gurl? I can’t tell… It was okay fa what it was. Now tha 4th verse sounds BETTA on tha soundin’!! A “Zion City” representa? You KNOW it gangsta there!! My Rating: 4.007. Big Poppa “Mr. AAAAA!”
Huh??? >>> Him and his catchy weirdness!! Good job wit tha hook and tha EXTRA catchy flow/1st verse, lol! This could make people crack a smile fa what it iz… Tha 2nd verse keeps tha REAL gr8 flow here! Keep it up wit this catchy shit; DEFINITELY a “rollin’” dude here when it comes ta jiggalatin’ on songs, lol!! Wow, what a long ending wit tha “If you catch me in __________, say, “AAAAA!” My Rating: 4.3Break: I’m on tha tired side so I’ll pick this up when I get up again. Either way, GR8 start ta this mixtape!! *Sleeps* Aight, back up here at 10:22 AM.
08. Wacko “Yea Music”
I recently heard his him and his boy Skip on a “That Slangin’ Muzik” joint. Now that Wacko has just his own “Music” joint, let’s see how good it iz! >>> This sounds completely different for a start. Tha beginning was a lil’ odd but tha hook ain’t that bad so it gets a plus for bein’ catchy. He sounds a lil’ like Rick Ross here on tha 1st verse. If this was a mainstream song, I would prolly get sick of it really fast but it ain’t so I’ll enjoy it while it’s here. Tha 1st verse sounded a lil’ betta than tha 2nd verse. Tha verses are a lil’ short (it seems like) so no wonder there’s room for a 3rd one… Tha 3rd verse iz a lil’ betta although a lil’ more on tha decent level but I go for it. My Rating: 3.8
09. Wochee Feat. Lil’ Boosie “Chasin’ Money”
I think you spelled his name wrong. It’s not Woochie; it’s Wochee. Anyway, this dude iz DEFINITELY a 50/50 when it comes ta hit and miss… I reviewed a bunch of his shit almost two months ago and yesterday; bunch of decent, bunch of wack and only a few good. But wit Boosie featured, it shouldn’t be a problem bein’ a hit fa me; let’s see! >>> Beat so far iz good; it fits his style. This iz definitely on tha betta side fa him; it sounds above average on his perspective. Even tha hook sounds pretty good so this iz gr8 ta hear! Boosie sounds good once again on tha 2nd verse; definitely tha right spice fa tha song! Tha 3rd verse iz actually above average fa me wit tha “You can call me Barney if you lookin’ fa tha purp” and tha “work” line too; that was good shit! My Rating: 4.0
10. Fiend “Motor In The Back”
I expect this ta be good; gr8 mix of people on this mixtape!! >>> A lil’ bit of tha Bounce style (slowed down) in tha beginning! Tha beat iz definitely a plus here and it sounds like he goin’ off on this shit wit his style! Tha 1st verse did its thang and tha hook iz DEFINITELY more like it!! DEFINITELY catchy wit tha KICK-ASS beat too!! Tha 2nd verse flowed real nice on this shit too! Even a 3rd verse fit quickly and it flowed real nice once again! He definitely did tha damn thang here!! My Rating: 4.4
11. Level “Wobbly”
Nooooooooooooooooooo…!!! I’ll leave this one to my agent!
*Skips* My Rating: N/A½time: Looks like a GR8 CD so far!! DJ 5150, you’re doin’ a nice job here!! One of your mixtapes wit Juvenile iz in my Louisiana Reviewz Marathon that you put out last year so you got some exposure in dat! Keep up tha gr8 work discoverin’ and exposin’ these Louisiana artists to tha fullest!! Tha average CD rating currently iz at a nice 4.2!!
12. Calliope Var Feat. Mr. Marcelo, Curren$y & Magnolia Chop “U Can Catch Me”
Coupla errors here: Mr. Marcelo iz tha 1st feature on tha ID (no dickridin’ fa Curren$y), (I think) Magnolia Chop iz tha featured singer on tha hook and it’s “U Can Catch Me” (you forgot two of tha words). Anyway, heard it a bunch of times on a bunch of mixtapes and I said: It has a NICE start here and I’m DEFINITELY feelin’ tha 2009 Bounce feel in tha beat, lol! Gotta luv tha “dunn-dunn-dunn-dunn” Bounce beat! GREAT hood rappin’ here on tha 1st verse from Calliope, doin’ tha damn thang to tha max!! Luv tha “blowin’ on purp” shit; tight shit here! Tha hook here iz DEFINITELY nice too; great ½ singin’/rappin’! Tight shit, and tha 2nd verse iz soundin’ good too from Mr. Marcelo! Fuckin’ feelin’ these rhymes, as they mix GREAT wit tha uptempo beat here!!! Keep tha rhymes comin’, y’all!! Tha 3rd verse here (Curren$y), and here, he sounds betta! Glad he sounds faster on tha verse this time! Nice job wit dis joint right here! My Current Rating: 4.6
13. Partners-N-Crime Feat. B.G. & Fiend “We From The N.O.”
Usually, it’s “e” before tha “i,” but not in Fiend’s name (as you have “Feind,” lol). I know you also have it ID’d as “PNC,” but I like ta spell out their whole name (not considerin’ it an error though). Lately, PNC has been more on a miss than hit wit their last “Auto-Tune” CD. But, wit B.G. & Fiend on tha feature, this HAS ta go hard… hopefully!! >>> Good, we got B.G. startin’ thangz off! Tha beat iz catchy here so hopefully tha rest of tha song remains like this! Glad B.G. doin’ a nice job on tha 1st verse, holdin’ a long verse down! This iz a perfect title fa this mixtape! Hope there’s a near “We From The B.R.” title comin’ up in tha mixtape! Pretty sure that’s Tha 2nd verse sounds gr8 wit tha GR8 flow and rappin’!! Just like B.G.’s 2nd ½ of his Rap name, tha 2nd verse keeps it “gangsta” on this shit right here! Here’s tha 3rd verse here. Good thing it ain’t on an Auto-Tune level although it on a Plies level wit tha voice at least. LOL, I didn’t even realize tha song was 5:24! But yea, tha 3rd verse held it down to tha fullest here!! Tha 4th verse STILL did tha damn thang here; gr8 shit all tha way through! My Rating: 4.2
14. Kevin Gates “Dangerous”
Looks a lil’ familiar… I guess I’m confusin’ it wit Kardinal Offishall’s title ‘cause Gates does tha Reggae thing at times. I have his Behind Enemy Lines mixtape I finna review in tha next few dayz so this could be on there… But for now, I’m hearin’ it here 1st!! >>> Why a fade-in intro? What’s up wit this? Not only iz it disappointin’ ta have weird singin’ Auto-Tune vocals but somethin’ wit his “boxers” was in tha beginning?
What’s up wit tha weirdness? Okay, that was just tha hook so I can handle it especially since it was catchy! Why iz tha quality low on this song vs. tha others? Sounds like a VERY long 1st verse; at least it was REAL GOOD… Betta yet, it’s still goin’; does it end, lol? I like his “niggaz send me letters, can’t fa’get ta mail ‘em back” line ‘cause I feel like it’s an advantage when I writin’ people in jail. Pretty good song here and I feel 4.0+ ‘cause of tha catchiness! My Rating: 4.115. Kidd Kidd Feat. Bobby Valentino “Hot Girl”
Based off tha ID, I KNOW this ain’t tha Baton Rouge Kidd Kidd… >>> Tha beat iz pretty catchy for tha mainstream and this ain’t that bad of a song; betta than tha Boosie/Bobby V song! Tha 1st verse was only okay fa me; nothin’ made me excited or nothin’. It sounds like I felt tha 1st verse betta than tha 2nd verse… Not much ta say although it looks like he PNC’d him wit tha “So Attracted” hook he repeated right when tha verse ended. My Rating: 3.3
16. Lil’ Trill Feat. Lil’ Boosie “Showin’ Up”
Tha 1st few seconds of it (when it played at tha end of tha last song) sounded like Lil’ Phat, but I guess now that I see it’s Lil’ Trill, he must be “smaller,” lol. I expect this ta be good though! >>> Sounded like it did tha hook real quick. Now I hear tha full hook and it’s DEFINITELY tha shit right chea!! He says he’s “swaggalicious” on tha 1st verse, lol! Gotta luv tha Louisiana feel ta this song!! Nice job on tha 1st verse; doin’ tha damn thang. Boosie held tha 2nd verse down; definitely delivered more catchy shit fa this mixtape, ya dig! HOPEFULLY DJ 5150 comes through wit more compilation mixtapes fa Louisiana artists!! My Rating: 4.4
17. Lil’ Phat “Been On”
LOL, now here’s Phat, lol! >>> Sounds like tha intro just makes me wanna laugh in a good way!
Gotta luv when he comes through wit humor and gutta shit at tha same time! Sounds like a Savage beat here wit tha way tha HOT beat sounds!! Tha hook goes hard; gr8 job, Phat! Phat LUVS tha “Saints” here! Speakin’ of tha Saints, in Media Performance class tha otha day for a final, I had ta read a news story on camera. When someone read theirs about tha Saints, for my comment, I said, “Shout out ta Louisiana!!” Err-body cracked up ‘cause they KNOW how much I luv Louisiana and tha music, ya dig!! Good job on tha 1st verse, Phat! Let’s see what he’s got fa tha 2nd verse… Glad this song iz 4:23!! Great job deliverin’ tha catchy shit here in tha 2nd verse! Yea, he DEFINITELY iz “on like tha phone off tha hook;” ROFL! That was a catchy line! Speakin’ of bein’ “on,” he’s now “on like a light” fa tha 3rd verse, lol! And he’s in LUV wit tha “polo” at tha end; good shit to tha fullest!! My Rating: 4.618. Cizzea “Come On Girl”
Finally a newbie… Not sure about tha title so make it some CATCHY Louisiana music!! >>> Weird/good African drums (almost) in tha beginning, lol. This iz completely different from typical music (especially tha beat) so this’ll prolly be good. Tha intro was aight/good and tha hook iz catchy. Sounds like a lotta shit goin’ on here and it’s pretty good fa what it iz. I’m “jungletized” wit this beat, lol! Tha next verse iz okay but it still goes wit this song so that’s watz good! Tha dude after tha hook sounds catchy; nearly soundin’ like Mannie. Even a 3rd verse fit inta this and looks like it gon get cut off or somethin’… Oh wait, tha beat stopped… Then, it got cut off from tha hook, lol. My Rating: 3.9
19. Down Bad Feat. Big Head “Dumbest”
Got ta hear this one before and although they got a new song out, I heard they was pushin’ this one (‘cause I saw a topic of it on WOS)? Again, of course, tha good Down Bad type of beat in tha intro here; good shit! Really likin’ tha hook here, especially wit tha title spellin’!
Here comes tha 1st verse, SOOOO FUCKIN’ FAST! 
It’s Cage and he doin’ his thang on this shit; great rhymes here!! Soundin’ good on tha slower tip here. Big Head ‘bout ta be on tha 2nd verse… When he givin’ me $75 for me ta do him a commercial? Somebody needs ta gimme his cell numba. Pretty good verse, although he did A LOT BETTA on his Realest Of The Trillest CD that came out earlier in tha year! LOL @ Terror on tha 3rd verse! Feelin’ tha way he rappin’ on this verse right chea! Gotta like tha “I’m afta a ‘G’ like tha letta ‘H’;” dumb shit! JR Dot snuck in on tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse! Real glad he started tha part off wit a nice, fast flow! Yea, “tha whole Louisiana dumbest!” My Current Rating: 4.420. Jimi Jump Feat. Trell “My Swag”
Speakin’ of Down Bad, here’s Jimi Jump, who’s real cool wit J-Dirty! Only got ta hear his Here’s My Resume CD. I neva got in contact wit him although he was one of tha 1st dudes from Louisiana that I didn’t know ta friend request me back in May 2008. That was cool but no contact since? I know he knows what I do! Let’s see how this turns out ta be! >>> Tha beat iz REAL HOT here and tha hook iz DEFINITELY official!! It has that flow style I really like (kinda like “I got this, check. This, check”)!! Jimi comin’ through pretty gutta here on tha 1st verse; DEFINITELY luv how he comes through on tracks!! Gr8 shit here and it sounds betta than tha Down Bad song already for a 1st listen!
Tha Trell dude (might’ve heard him before?) on tha 2nd verse comin’ through pretty gutta also on tha 2nd verse; nothin’ but swagga to tha fullest here! Glad there’s room fa anotha verse ta come up! Glad it’s Jimi for tha 3rd verse! He’s really “posted on tha wall” here and it almost sounds like a bridge but I believe it’s a verse. He held it down ‘til tha end of tha song! My Rating: 4.521. Lil’ Boxx “Stevie Wonder”
LOL, I thought I imagined this song when I heard tha beat intro at tha end of tha last song! But, it wasn’t my imagination; it’s HERE NOW!!
Because I play it quite often and really enjoy playin’ it, instead of just postin’ my previous feedback, I gon post it and add to it; here it iz: Good thing it ain’t slow ‘cause I was almost scared it was gonna be slow or somethin’; lookin’ like a beastin’ beat! Wait, why “I’ma show you how ta do tha ‘Stevie Wonder’?” This ain’t one of those dance songs iz it? Although a lil’ paranoia strike, I have ta say this ain’t that bad… At least it has tha repetitive 2nd ½ of tha hook formula in it! Tha lyrics are good (wit tha “saggin’” parts) although it’s kinda bein’ reflected in a gay way (bein’ a dance). Nice “buku Coogi” part and tha flow iz pretty good on this too. Tha beat iz definitely bein’ pretty catchy. You’re REALLY absorbed inta this dance here on tha 2nd verse. Oh wait, you just said, “this ain’t no dancin’ song;” I guess I should stop criticizin’ a lil’… I mean, it’s listenable so at least it’s 4.0 for me. I hear tha lyrics in tha hook again and they sound pretty catchy, so I’m continuously givin’ this betta feedback. Tha bridge a lil’ cheesy wit all tha title parts. <- To add: Yea, you know I’m stereotypical wit tha dancin’ songs but this iz way betta than most of them ‘cause it’s more “cool” than gay! Glad (I think) one of tha BFE DJ’s sent you (DJ 5150) this song! They sent me it to and it’s doin’ tha damn thang on my playlist! Plus, I got it on my YouTube! LOL, as much as I criticized tha bridge, it was cut off on here, lol! My Current Rating: 4.422. Kevin Gates Feat. Level “Get In Here (Remix)”
It’s actually tha remix… Oh no, I gotta go through this “skippin’” shit again? Because it’s Gates’ song, it’ll be rated! Once again, you forgot tha “Get” in tha title. I actually reviewed this before on a CD (won’t say ‘cause it’s me bein’ nice) and I had said (tha skipped parts’ll be cut out): I knew by tha title it would be familiar… Huh? This iz Gates’s original song (from All In)? I’ll call it a remix! I LUV his “she gon suck it, and fuck it and all that?!?” in tha hook!!! *Feedback removed about 1st verse* I’m sure this iz tha same Gates verse from his CD, so I guess I’ll have to say there’s a lot goin’ on wit his verse; good job though, Gates! Just gotta LUV tha attitude of Gates on tha “suck it/fuck it/all dat” hook; it’s REAL GREAT to add an attitude!!! *Feedback removed about 3rd verse* <- To add: Now look how tha feedback’s shorter.
There was more, but it was caterin’ so I had ta remove it. Once it’s 2010, NOBODY havin’ problems wit me anymore!! I don’t cause problems; people do! I only SUPPORT!! SUPPORT, SUPPORT, SUPPORT!!! I don’t understand how people (no less THA ARTIST THEMSELVES) can hate on support?!? My Current Rating: 4.723. Mac “Camouflage”
This looks like it’ll be a gr8 ending song! Ta have Mac as tha ending artist ta this gr8 mixtape iz gr8! Let’s see if tha song agrees wit me!! >>> Whether this iz old or not, it’s pretty good wit an ol’ skool twist. Tha long 1st verse held it down and tha hook has a 90’s feel to it. It sounds good fa what it iz and iz a gr8 ending song ta this mixtape! Tha 2nd verse was long too and held it down. Keepin’ tha Mac sound alive so dat’s watz good. And yea, “FREE MAC!!” My Rating: 3.8
Overall: Good job wit tha whole mixtape; it did its thang!! You’re good at findin’ a bunch of gr8 artists fa this mixtape! Wait ‘til I start findin’ artists and puttin’ them on my own compilation mixtapes!! Tryna make dat my mission fa 2010! We’ll see if it happens soon!! Hope you tha best wit tha future shit you put out! Oh yea, why iz Lil’ Wayne, Juvenile, Webbie & Hurricane Chris on tha cover? They are not on tha mixtape? That’s a lil’ weird…
