Review #567: Yung Rocky & Soulja "985: The Mixtape"

Reviewed on 7.21.2010 (Review #567)




Ugh, these reviewz… Next one iz Yung Rocky & Soulja “985: The Mixtape”. Start Time: 10:50 PM | End Time: 11:27 PM


Quick Note: 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) 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. “985 Hood Anthem”
Hopefully, this’ll be REALLY gr8, I hope!! >>> Oh no, more bullshit… I thought tha beginning beat sounds Popish but damn, this iz horrible for me. I don’t like how this sounds like young, Pop shit rather than tha shit I wanted. Oh wait, that was just a random hook and not tha real thing? I don’t get it… SMH @ “my dick” bein’ Auto-Tuned; pretty gay. I thought tha “bruh”s would anticipate me for tha 2nd verse but nah, this turned out worse than I thought. My Rating: 2.3


02. “Gutta Shit”
>>> Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em-type shit. Not feelin’ tha beginning but if you’re keepin’ it real, then tha “gutta shit” would be considered good on tha 1st verse. Tha rest iz aight… My Rating: 3.2


03. “Powered Up”
>>> Good hook. I would say this iz consistent…; it’s listenable for me. Huh? A-Tune towards tha end of tha last verse? Gotta decrease tha rating then; -0.4! My Rating: 3.3


04. “Go Dumb”
>>> LOL @ this beat start; sounds like a video game. What’s wit tha heavy bass again, lol? This iz cool but tha verses need ta be good too! “Oh no” iz right! Tha 2nd verse ruins tha song fa me once again! My Rating: 3.4


05. “985 Boot Mentality”
>>> Anotha gay voice; why? Tha WHOLE ENTIRE SONG IZ GAY TO THA FULLEST!! How DARE dis have a title like dis!! Even tha mixtape title!! My Rating: 1.0


½time: Gay reviewz all day, smh! A 2.6 average CD rating at tha moment.


06. “Let’s Get Away”
>>> Was gonna leave no feedback but tha hook got catchy… My Rating: 1.6


07. “‘Bout Dat”
>>> Good hook but I feel completely bored by now… I think this iz catchy wit tha “where yo house at” shit in tha hook and tha verses are aight. My Rating: 3.7


08. “I Got Dat”
>>> This iz good for a start; heavy bass too! DEFINITELY a GR8 hook!! I hope tha verses don’t ruin it! Tha 1st verse’s good; cool shit here, as long as it’s real! Tha 2nd verse’s cool wit tha content although tha voice kinda scares me at times… My Rating: 4.0


09. “Keep It 100”
>>> Ugh @ these vocals in tha beginning! Tha 1st verse came through wit a weird voice; iz somethin’ in your mouth? Why does these beat sounds sound familiar? Tha 2nd verse sounds boring… My Rating: 2.5


10. “Back 2 Back (Freestyle) (Outro)”
>>> Cool beat for a start but I don’t think it’ll stay dat way ‘cause it’s kinda scary… Tha 1st verse’s aight… Tha 2nd verse sounds betta; betta attitude too. Tha 3rd verse’s keepin’ it consistent on dis beat. Tha 4th verse’s kinda cheesy wit tha “Young Money” shit… Tha 5th verse iz pretty gutta…; let’s see tha 6th verse… It’s still tha 5th verse and it’s kinda long… My Rating: 3.8


Overall: Kinda a letdown, thanx to some of tha songs on here. There was no excitement in this day wit reviewz for some reason… Keep trainin’ wit tha songs, lol.
