Reviewed on 8.27.2010 (Review #636)
Tha next review iz tha last for tha 2Clean Ent. crew… This one iz A-Town Ballaz (ATB Gang) “(Not Girl$) & (Not Boy$)”! Yup, where tha REAL A-Town came from; Alexandria, LA!! Start Time: 8:03 PM | End Time: 9:31 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.

Source (Where I Got Tha CD From): http://www.datpiff.com/ATOWN_BALLAZ_ATB_GANG__NOT_GIRL_NOT_BOY.m90785.html
01. “A-Town B Ballin’”
LOL, what a nice way ta start thangz off! It’s pretty catchy wit tha R&B hook… Sounds like some (Not Boy)-type shit in tha 1st verse here; good rappin’! Tha 2nd verse sounds like some good, fast rappin’! Pretty good here… Tha Captain’s on tha 3rd verse here and tha fast rappin’ iz helpin’ here; catchy shit! Even a 4th verse here from him and it sounds like dat fast-rapped ending from one of tha other songs I heard before!! Actually, I think it iz dat same part ‘cause I heard tha “pop a pill” shit; interestin’ resurrection! 
My Current Rating: 4.4
02. “Ride In Tha City”
LOL, it’s #2 again on anotha CD, lol! I’m likin’ tha beginning here wit tha beat; nice and smooth here! Real nice-soundin’ hook here! Tha 1st verse sounds good. Erk (in his letter response) was tellin’ me some of his material was like 10 years old; iz this shit near dat old? It sounds kinda old… Neva mind, that GARBAGE “turn my swag on” quote on tha beginning of tha 2nd verse, smh… LOL @ this 2nd verse; sounds like they’re really young but I think it’s tha Captain. Tha 3rd verse’s keepin’ dat 90’s vibe goin’ here… My Current Rating: 4.5
03. “Alexandria ‘Bout 2 Clown”
Shit, yea!! Good beat start and yea, where “A-Town” started!! I like tha “A-L-E-X-A-N-D-R-I-A” spellin’ in tha hook too; catchy-ass shit!! Sounds like tha (Not Boy$) in tha 1st verse here; good shit to tha fullest!! It’s all about keepin’ dat 318 motivation up!! Tha Captain’s on tha 2nd verse here and yea, he was 36 at tha time since it was a year ago… Consistent shit; he has a GR8 voice fa dis undaground shit!! “Alexandria” has a future!! Tha 3rd verse iz more of dat Not Boy$-type shit; good shit, especially tha “hit like thunder” shit at tha end! Tha Captain’s on tha end here or betta yet, sounds like a 4th verse! Very quick rappin’ and sounds REAL NICE!! My Current Rating: 4.7
04. “In A-Town, It Go Up”
Looks like a newer song fa me; I’m lookin’ forward ta hearin’!! >>> Tha beat sounds kinda R&Bish at first… Okay, okay! I’m feelin’ tha fastness of tha 1st verse here!! VERY, VERY CONSISTENT 1ST VERSE HERE!!! LOL, where’s tha hook? Oh, I notice it now…; tha fast-ass flow iz so consistent ta where it almost sounds like a whole verse, lol!! Tha 2nd verse’s just REAL tight once again!!! Tha 3rd verse iz ALSO doin’ tha damn thang!!! Tha rappin’ took a break at 2:50? There’s still at least two minutes left! Okay, a repeat of tha hook and a lil’ long-type outro here… LOL, had ta have tha hook end tha song! My Rating: 4.7
05. “These A-Town Streets”
Now, “A-Town” iz in every title, lol!! Just like tha last review wit “Havenot” bein’ in every title; let’s see what’s good wit dis!! >>> Okay, sounds like a screwed beat; feelin’ it! Anotha R&B hook? I dunno about hearin’ these kinda hook so many times… It’s cool though fa this song; real shit… Tha 1st verse has real shit goin’ on here; GR8 representation of tha 318! Tha 2nd verse sounds real gutta wit tha shit here; nice job wit holdin’ it down to tha fullest!! LOL, I thought tha start to tha 3rd verse said, “If you in Scranton,” which Scranton iz tha city I’m near, lol!! DEFINITELY a GR8 verse though!! My Rating: 4.5
06. “A-Town 2 H-Town: Throw Yo Hands Up”
Anthematic title here; let’s hear what’s good!! >>> Okay, sounds a lil’ like Pac in tha beginning of tha 1st verse so iz this Erk? Sounds pretty tight and tha beat’s pretty hot here for tha South!! Damn, this 1st verse’s REAL, REAL consistent; gotta LUV it!!! LOL, did two verses just go by? Didn’t realize ‘cause tha beat’s so consistent (which doesn’t change that much) to where I can’t tell where tha hook comes in; good shit!! Tha 3rd verse iz also keepin’ this shit street, gutta, gangsta, etc. to tha fullest!!! My Rating: 4.7
07. “Thug Song”
Good, old-soundin’ production and tha hook’s cool; hood shit to tha fullest!! Tha 1st verse’s gangsta at its finest!! Tha 2nd verse iz REALLY what’s up wit tha fast-ass rappin’!!! Tha Captain’s on tha 3rd verse here and this song iz different: “play a thug song, not a club song” when it comes ta tha DJ. Nice job wit tha verse and makin’ this shit sound catchy! My Current Rating: 4.3
08. “A Balla Gottem”
Okay, tha beat’s DEFINITELY tight here and it sounds NICE wit tha way Erk’s handlin’ tha hook!! Real shit bein’ spit in tha 1st verse; good thing he was neva around for tha bullshit that’s out now!! Oh, here comes tha Captain on tha 2nd verse, doin’ tha damn thang… Pretty good verse right there, ya dig? What’ll come outta tha 3rd verse? I believe it’s Erk again, doin’ his thang wit his GR8 “blowin’ big killa” rhymes! Now, tha Captain hopped onto tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse here, wit some good “ridin’” rhymes. LOL, why iz there a lot of silence at tha end? My Current Rating: 4.5
09. “South Coast”
Let’s see what’s good wit tha “South Coast” here… >>> Feelin’ tha beat and tha Southern feel!! This shit DEFINITELY sounds 90’s ta me wit how it’s bein’ delivered; DEFINITE plus!!! Tha content’s DEFINITELY a plus too!! STELLAR VERSES HERE!!! ALL tha verses are DEFINITELY called for here, ya heard me?!? My Rating: 4.7
½time: I knew a bunch of tha songs but tha new songs fa me are DEFINITELY REAL TIGHT!!! Tha average CD rating iz again back up at 4.6!!!!!
10. “My Mic”
Looks like a strong title; how will it go as far as y’all A-Town boyz? >>> Tha beat’s cool and tha 1st verse has some good shit goin’ on here… Tha hook sounds pretty strong; gotta luv tha power of tha “mic,” ya heard me?!? I like how there’s a lotta luv bein’ shown here when it comes ta rappin’ dis track; it’s ALL about tha South!! My Rating: 4.3
11. “Tell Me Why”
What’ll come outta this? >>> Okay-soundin’ beat; sounds like not much iz goin’ on… Tha beginning’s aight wit tha (Not Girl$) helpin’ out on tha hook and tha 1st verse’s pretty serious wit tha content. Nice job from tha Captain! Tha 2nd verse sounds like tha content iz continuin’ when it comes ta all tha street shit goin’ on! Tha Captain’s on tha 3rd verse here and he’s keepin’ it real here! My Rating: 3.9
12. “On My Grind”
That’s what it’s all about! >>> Cool beat start here… Tha hook iz DEFINITELY a GR8 step fa motivation!! Tha 1st verse sounds like it’s all about survival and just continuin’ ta “grind!” Tha 2nd verse sounds pretty good; mo hot shit here… Let’s see what tha 3rd verse has ta offer… Okay, feelin’ this rhymin’! Oh, a 4th verse here and it’s sounds good! Nice way ta end tha song! My Rating: 4.3
13. “Who Tha Realest Nigga You Kno”
It’s really “est”, not “ist”. Anyway, this looks like it gon be tight!! >>> Okay, nice beat here and tha Captain’s doin’ tha damn thang wit makin’ tha hook soundin’ REAL good!! He’s on tha 1st verse and it’s all about tha “real” shit to tha fullest!! Definitely a nice job on tha 1st verse and I look forward ta hearin’ tha rest of this!! Tha 2nd verse sounds kinda low on tha voice; what I can hear iz pretty good… Same thing wit tha 3rd verse here and it’s soundin’ good too… My Rating: 4.5
14. “Rock Yo Boat”
LOL @ this title; what’ll happen? >>> Kinda low on tha voice here but it sounds like tha Captain’s doin’ a nice job wit tha hook as well as someone else helpin’ out… Tha Captain’s on tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ good; nice job… Tha 2nd verse sounds kinda low too… Good collaboration here, includin’ tha 3rd verse, which was also low… My Rating: 4.0
15. “Court Cases”
Strong title; lookin’ forward! >>> Now, it’s louder, lol? Although it might be Erk, I’m still not likin’ tha near-Pac sound… Good lyrics (of course) but not feelin’ tha way this sounds… My Rating: 3.5
16. “Break Thru”
Let’s see what y’all got here… >>> Tha beginning doesn’t anticipate me… Tha R&B singin’ here’s not that special for me… Verses aren’t dat bad but I don’t like how tha hook’s sung; it does have tha good content though. My Rating: 3.6
17. “72 Cookies”
Interestin’ title here; I wanna hear what’s goin’ on!! >>> Thought tha beat was gonna make this CD sound sader but it sounds pretty catchy wit how tha hook’s delivered! Tha 1st verse sounds good wit tha shit goin’ on…; real shit. Tha 2nd verse iz all about “placin’ an order;” good job here… Tha 3rd verse sounds pretty good; catchy shit. There’s even a 4th verse and it’s tha Captain, doin’ his thang as always! My Rating: 4.2
18. “Hoe Niggaz”
Strong attitude on tha title so let’s see what’s good wit tha song… >>> Sounds like some knockin’ on tha door or somethin’ in tha beginning but I believe it’s tha beat… Okay, tha Captain’s on tha hook and it’s tight; dat REAL tight shit here!! Tha 2nd verse sounds like it’s contributin’ pretty good on tha track… Ooh, tha Captain’s on tha 3rd verse and I’m feelin’ tha shit ‘cause he has tha voice dat really be holdin’ thangz down!! My Rating: 4.4
19. “In Tha Kitchen 2”
Part 2, lol? What do we got here? >>> I like tha intro, which has me more anticipated… Okay, tha hook has good shit ta offer! Tha 1st verse sounds betta here; I like how tha beat’s more fixed ta make tha track sound good! Tha 2nd verse has a LOT of GR8 content here when it comes ta servin’ fa tha streetz!! Same thang wit tha 3rd verse; feelin’ good wit dis shit right chea!! My Rating: 4.4
Overall: Came through wit dat HOT SHYT once again, ya heard me?!? NICE JOB!!! Keep up tha REAL GR8 work for tha future and once again, FREE ERK!!!!!

Source (Where I Got Tha CD From): http://www.datpiff.com/HAVENOT_RIDAZ_HAVENOT_RIDAZ.m85867.html
01. Havenot Intro Feat. Tupac
LOL, what’s wit tha feature? >>> LOL @ Tupac’s start; how outta nowhere. Tha beat’s pretty cool and tha Captain’s doin’ tha damn thang here on this “intro”!! Still, what’s wit tha quiet background when he says, “…run this muthafucka!” ROFL @ tha Tupac ending!! 
My Rating: N/A
02. “Havenot Ridaz”
Self-titled song here? What do we got… >>> I dunno; kinda jackin’ Tupac here in my opinion. Well, tha hook and beat makes me not wanna even comment ‘cause of tha jackin’. But, at least tha 3rd verse iz catchin’ my attention a lil’ bit… Not bad on all tha verses themselves, as they’re definitely street. However, it would’ve been betta if it was original (like on tha last CD I peeped out)! My Rating: 2.9
03. “Havenot Party”
LOL, all these titles are all “Havenot” here, lol! What’ll this be like? >>> Tha hook sounds pretty good… Tha 1st verse’s jammin’ on this beat and iz straight for me. Tha 2nd verse has a consistent flow goin’ on here; good shit, ya heard me? Tha 3rd verse gives me a good 90’s feel wit how it’s bein’ presented on this track; good shit… My Rating: 4.0
04. “Unfortunates & Havenots”
What’s this “an” in tha title? Doesn’t look like it fits or somethin’… Anyway, anotha “Havenot” title, lol! >>> Tha production iz decent here… Sounds like pretty good hood shit in tha 1st verse; keep tha motivation up! LOL @ tha hook; I like tha screwed voice! Oh, so tha “an” iz really an “and;” I see… Tha 2nd verse almost sounds like Jim Jones… Sounds like some good gangsta shit… I’m gonna put “s”es in tha title ‘cause that’s what tha hook says… Tha 3rd verse’s pretty good too… LOL @ tha cut-off-soundin’ endin’… My Rating: 4.3
05. “Back Of Tha Club”
LOL @ this title. Also, no Havenot shit? >>> Real quiet start wit some sound effect for 20 seconds in tha intro… Tha Captain iz on tha hook here and tha shit’s real catchy!! I wonder what dat’s like ta “have a click wit you”? He’s even on tha 1st verse here and he’s doin’ tha damn thang to tha fullest!! Other than tha hook, tha beat iz extremely dry and quiet wit nothin’ goin’ on… LOL, iz it me or tha whole world drinks or somethin’, lol? Pretty funny… Tha 2nd verse’s soundin’ aight on this plain beat… Tha 3rd verse’s pretty good; nothin’ much ta say… My Rating: 4.6
06. “Our Pockets Haveknot”
“Havenot” wit a “k” this time, lol! How will this turn out? >>> Wow, tha Captain came outta nowhere on tha hook, deliverin’ dat catchy-ass shit to tha fullest!! No wonder y’all name; I found out in this hook ‘cause of tha “pockets!” Sounds like Erk on tha 1st verse? Soundin’ good here… Tha Captain’s on tha 2nd verse and he said, “2005;” iz this song that old? He’s ALWAYS interestin’ ta hear on tha mic so thumbs up fa contributin’!! Tha 3rd verse iz singin’; okay… This was pretty catchy for a song right chea! My Rating: 4.2
07. “Say & Do Wat U Want”
Looks like an attitude iz in play; lookin’ forward ta hearin’! >>> Okay, tha beat’s pretty serious here and so iz tha voice on tha hook!! Tha Captain’s on tha 1st verse and it’s pretty good wit what he’s deliverin’! I hope tha dude on tha hook spits a verse; he’d prolly be REAL TIGHT wit it!! Shit, yea!! My wish came true ‘cause he iz on tha 2nd verse!! He did tha damn thang right here, ya heard me? Damn, thought there’d be anotha verse… My Rating: 4.4
08. “Wanna See Me Fall”
Tha haterz are out outta nowhere!! >>> Good beat here and nice intro from tha Captain! Tha 1st verse has good rappin’ here; good shit bein’ spit!! Tha 2nd verse iz also soundin’ pretty good here… Tha 3rd verse’s doin’ a nice job here! It’s all about tha voice ta hold thangz down to tha fullest!! Ooh, tha Captain came through in tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse; good shit from him… My Rating: 4.2
09. “Plex”
I dunno ‘bout dis… >>> Glad this ain’t like dat “Flex” song; sounds like a good intro wit tha Captain on it! Tha 1st verse’s focused; good job wit tha focused rappin’, ya dig? Dat Captain’s REALLY holdin’ down tha hook and tha title!! Tha 2nd verse also sounds focused wit tha good rhymes; thumbs up ta this hood shit!! Here’s tha 3rd verse from tha Captain, feelin’ good wit everything he’s got… My Rating: 4.3
½time: ANOTHA GR8 project from dat 2Clean Entertainment/Havenot Recordz!! So far, tha average CD rating’s at 4.1 right now; good shit! Keep these HOT JAMZ comin’ along!!!
10. “Freakin’ 2nite”
How will this go? >>> Sounds catchy wit tha Captain in tha beginning; ROFL! I didn’t expect this ta be tha hook; I thought it was gonna be tha 1st verse or somethin’… Okay, now, tha 1st verse iz here and it’s already on an explicit tip! Tha 2nd verse so far iz aight… Tha Captain iz on tha 3rd verse and he’s doin’ his thang wit spicin’ this joint up, makin’ it more catchy! My Rating: 4.1
11. “Ayo, Come Fuck Wit Yo Boy”
I like this title and it has a lotta words, lol. Let’s see how good it iz… >>> Good beat although a lil’ plain… I like how tha Captain holds down anotha hook once again!! Tha Captain’s on tha 1st verse and he’s all about grindin’… Tha 2nd verse’s soundin’ good…; gotta keep it movin’ here! Tha 3rd verse has some gangsta shit ta offer; good job once again!! My Rating: 4.3
12. “Gotta Survive”
What’ll this sound like? >>> Not really my kinda song but because it has a 90’s vibe to it, I think it’s pretty catchy wit tha singin’ in tha hook and tha whole 90’s feel to it! Tha Captain’s kinda calm on tha 1st verse here… Tha 2nd verse sounds kinda calm too but I’m likin’ some of tha lyrics… Tha 3rd verse has some good rhymes ta flow wit dis joint… My Rating: 4.0
13. “In Tha Studio” (Erk)
Keep ‘em comin’! >>> Why tha hell does it sound like a fake Pac in tha 1st verse? Damn, tha whole song iz tha fake Pac? Original Rating: 1.1
EDIT: If I heard in error, I’ll think about revisin’ anything… Okay, I gon re-review this ‘cause this iz Erk and it’s prolly from tha 90’s… My bad for any errors I made when previously reviewin’ it… Okay, tha 1st verse sounds pretty good but yea, I’m still not a fan of tha near-Pac sound… Tha hook’s not bad; kinda simple but it proves good… Tha 2nd verse ain’t dat bad here… Tha 3rd verse sounds aight fa me… My Rating: 3.4
14. “Free Me” (Erk)
>>> Why does this sound like Pac too? This shouldn’t be “rate”-type music… Oh, neva mind, this iz Erk; I recognized tha title… Okay, not too bad since he said his songs were years and years old… Tha 1st verse’s pretty strong fa what it iz and tha hook’s a beg ta get Erk outta jail; I feel dat! I just wrote him for tha 2nd time so we’ll see what’s up. I’m glad I’m tha “first person ta write” him! Tha 2nd verse’s REAL tight when it comes ta tha content!! Tha 3rd verse sounds REAL WILD wit tha content; DEFINITELY HOT shit!!! Damn, this joint’s 5:43; pretty long… My Rating: 4.7
15. “In Tha Kitchen”
I think this was in tha folder on tha last CD I reviewed. But, it didn’t load and it wasn’t on tha DatPiff player. Now, I’m finally hearin’ it and I’m lookin’ forward!! >>> Okay, pretty cool hook but tha beat’s pretty plain… Not bad on tha 1st verse here; I expect a lil’ betta fa a title like dis… Tha 2nd verse sounds like a lotta representation; where are tha drug lines? Okay, tha 3rd verse iz betta here; I’m likin’ tha shit goin’ on! My Rating: 4.2
16. “Tha Girls Love Me”
>>> Although a nice rhythm ta dance to, I think it sounds like more of a jacked quote or somethin’… Tha verses sound like a jacked Pac; iz this Erk again? Remember: I feel dat my anticipation iz kinda low when I hear a sound like dis, no offense… My Rating: 3.6
17. “On Our Ride”
What could this be? >>> LOL @ tha “chicken” people! Tha hook iz hella catchy here; this iz DEFINITELY a jam!! Tha verses are cool here; lol @ tha “hard like a boxin’ match” line! Tha 3rd verse has a lil’ bit of a singin’-rappin’-type vocalization here… LOL, a 4th verse came outta nowhere and contributed pretty good! My Rating: 4.4
18. “Move Around”
Let’s see what dis gon be like… >>> Ooh, a beat tag and tha Captain’s doin’ tha damn thang on tha hook!! Wow, that was just tha beginning; tha real hook iz DEFINITELY what’s up!!! Tha 1st verse from tha Captain’s just consistent at all times, ya dig!! Huh? What happened to tha tight hook? It’s just a decent hook now on tha 2nd hook… Tha 2nd verse sounds pretty good on this joint too; nice lil’ song here… Tha 3rd verse iz pretty nice too… My Rating: 4.5
19. “Real Like Me”
Oh, this joint made it back onto here; good shit! Tha Captain’s holdin’ down tha hook in a REAL GOOD way; VERY, VERY catchy!!! Tha 1st verse’s soundin’ good and very catchy wit how tha Captain delivers it, ya dig!! Tha 2nd verse’s soundin’ pretty good here wit tha “real” shit and catchy rhymes! Tha 3rd verse sounds like someone dat would be from Texas or somethin’, lol… Catchy rhymin’ ta where I used ta like all kinds of Rap back in tha day; that’s what it reminds me of! My Current Rating: 4.7
Overall: Did a nice job on here once again, y’all!! Keep tha HOT SHIT comin’ along and keep grindin’!! All y’all are REAL GR8, especially tha Captain!! FREE ERK!!!!!

01. “Frowns & Tears” Feat. (Not Girl$)
What a title ta start? I’m goin’ by tha numbers on tha mp3 files instead of tha DatPiff tracklisting… Hope this CD ain’t sad or anything… >>> Quiet start in tha beat here… Tha hook’s a lil’ catchy; sounds like this iz like from tha 90’s or somethin’? LOL, are you tha oldest current rapper I’m listenin’ to right now (at Age 37)? Interestin’ wit tha 1st verse… Tha 2nd verse’s to tha point, especially for a 30+ year-old, lol. Who’s tha female on tha lil’ bridge here? Interestin’ ta hear a 90’s-soundin’ female on this… My Rating: 4.3
EDIT: I’ll just put “(Not Girl$)” on tha feature…
02. “Ride In Tha City” Feat. (Not Boy$)
Ooh, a collaboration here; looks like it gon sound good… >>> I’m likin’ tha beginning here wit tha beat; nice and smooth here! Real nice-soundin’ hook here! Tha 1st verse sounds good. Erk (in his letter response) was tellin’ me some of his material was like 10 years old; iz this shit near dat old? It sounds kinda old… Neva mind, that GARBAGE “turn my swag on” quote on tha beginning of tha 2nd verse, smh… LOL @ this 2nd verse; sounds like they’re really young but I think it’s you. Tha 3rd verse’s keepin’ dat 90’s vibe goin’ here… My Rating: 4.5
03. “I’m Real, U Fake” Feat. (Not Boy$)
What’ll come outta this? >>> Okay, this iz DEFINITELY gutta to tha fullest on tha hook; good job, you’re, on tha hook!! Tha 1st verse iz a DEFINITE PLUS and I’m REALLY feelin’ tha “real, nigga!!!” ad-libs from you outta nowhere in tha 1st verse!! Also, throughout tha hook so you KNOW this shit’s REAL HOT!!! Some of tha (Not Boy$) are on tha 2nd verse here; good attitude here! You’re on tha 3rd verse and I’m feelin’ all tha shit you bringin’ to tha table here!! I would luv ta get this on tha radio but it’d be a BITCH ta edit ‘cause of all tha ad-libs so I dunno… My Rating: 4.8
04. “A Balla Gottem” Feat. Erk
Ooh, an Erk song? Lookin’ forward ta hearin’!! >>> Okay, tha beat’s DEFINITELY tight here and it sounds NICE wit tha way Erk’s handlin’ tha hook!! Real shit bein’ spit in tha 1st verse; good thing he was neva around for tha bullshit that’s out now!! Oh, here comes you on tha 2nd verse, Captain, doin’ ya thang… Pretty good verse right there, ya dig? What’ll come outta tha 3rd verse? I believe it’s Erk again, doin’ his thang wit his GR8 “blowin’ big killa” rhymes! Now, you hopped onto tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse here, wit some good “ridin’” rhymes. LOL, why iz there a lot of silence at tha end? My Rating: 4.5
05. “Real Like Me” Feat. (Not Boy$)
Likin’ tha title once again; let’s keep it goin’!! >>> Tha volume’s a lil’ low here… You’re holdin’ down tha hook in a REAL GOOD way; VERY, VERY catchy!!! Tha 1st verse’s soundin’ good and very catchy wit how you deliver it, ya dig!! A feature on tha 2nd verse, soundin’ pretty good here wit tha “real” shit and catchy rhymes! Tha 3rd verse sounds like someone dat would be from Texas or somethin’, lol… Catchy rhymin’ ta where I used ta like all kinds of Rap back in tha day; that’s what it reminds me of! My Rating: 4.7
06. “U Don’t Want No Drama”
Tight title here and tha length iz almost six minutes long!! How will I like dis one? >>> Shit, yea!! Luv tha production in tha beginning here!! Okay, you’re doin’ tha damn thang on tha hook here!! This iz just SOOOOO GR8 when it comes ta dat undaground Louisiana Rap shit in Alexandria!! Tha 1st verse from you’s REAL TIGHT wit all tha shit you spittin’ fa tha streetz and how you deliverin’ tha catchy-ass rhymes!! Okay, I’m hearin’ tha “Round 1: … Round 2:” shit in tha hook and it’s DEFINITELY TIGHT!! Tha 2nd verse’s soundin’ pretty good once again from you; consistent shit here!! You’re on tha 3rd verse here and it’s soundin’ pretty NICE fa you ta hold tha WHOLE song down!!! REAL NICE job here, ya dig!! Damn, this iz a long beat outro… Oh, you repeated tha hook outta nowhere so dat’s a plus! My Rating: 4.8
07. “Get Dis Money, Daddy”
This should keep thangz goin’!! >>> LOL @ tha kid start! Catchy hook here, lol! Tha volume sounds a lil’ low on this one too… You’re doin’ a nice job on tha 1st verse here wit your consistent thoughts brought to tha table! Tha 2nd verse sounds consistent once again; keep tha shit comin’!! Tha 3rd verse iz cool fa what it iz, ya dig? That hook just HAS ME ROLLIN’!!! My Rating: 4.4
08. “Alexandria ‘Bout 2 Clown” Feat. (Not Boy$)
I like dis title, ya heard me? Show dat representation some luv!! >>> Good beat start and yea, where “A-Town” started!! I like tha “A-L-E-X-A-N-D-R-I-A” spellin’ in tha hook too; catchy-ass shit!! Sounds like tha (Not Boy$) in tha 1st verse here; good shit to tha fullest!! It’s all about keepin’ dat 318 motivation up!! You’re on tha 2nd verse here and yea, you were 36 at tha time since it was a year ago… Consistent shit; you have a GR8 voice fa dis undaground shit!! “Alexandria” has a future!! Tha 3rd verse iz more of dat Not Boy$-type shit; good shit, especially tha “hit like thunder” shit at tha end! You’re on tha end here or betta yet, sounds like a 4th verse! Very quick rappin’ and sounds REAL NICE!! My Rating: 4.7
09. “Lil’ Friend” Feat. (Not Boy$)
How will this turn out? >>> I dunno what ta say at first but tha beat’s real catchy… Tha 1st verse’s good; you doin’ ya thang here… Okay, this iz more about tha “chrome;” I see… Tha 2nd verse sounds like one of tha (Not Boy$) and I’m likin’ dis “ready ta attack” shit! LOL @ tha “banana” or whateva shit dat was; I liked tha way it was rapped! LOL, this was a shorter song compared to others… My Rating: 4.3
10. “Make A Way” Feat. (Not Boy$)
I had to rip dis (and tha 1st song) ‘cause they didn’t work in tha folder… >>> I really like dis old-ass production here!! Because I ripped it, I was able ta turn up tha volume ‘cause tha volume was a lil’ on tha low side… Tha hook sounds like somethin’ I wouldn’t really go for but you REALLY make it sound GR8 wit tha way you deliver tha rhymes!! Tha 1st verse sounds good wit tha (Not Boy$)! You’re on tha 2nd verse and it sounds like you’re deliverin’ those good-ass rhymes!! You’re on tha 3rd verse once again and naw, not really, you’re “not in this world alone;” people like me support you to tha fullest!! My Rating: 4.5
½time: Damn, this CD’s just REAL, REAL HOT so far!!! Didn’t expect a 4.6 average CD rating so far!!! REALLY LUVIN’ tha old-soundin’ production and you just have dat voice and list of topics dat REALLY hold it down, ya heard me?!?
11. “Thug Song” Feat. (Not Boy$)
Let’s keep it goin’!! >>> Good, old-soundin’ production and tha hook’s cool; hood shit to tha fullest!! Tha 1st verse’s gangsta at its finest!! Tha 2nd verse iz REALLY what’s up wit tha fast-ass rappin’!!! You’re on tha 3rd verse here and this song iz different: “play a thug song, not a club song” when it comes ta tha DJ. Nice job wit your verse and makin’ this shit sound catchy! My Rating: 4.3
12. “Don’t Stop” Feat. (Not Boy$)
That’s DEFINITELY my advice when it comes ta these reviewz and supportin’ people!! >>> A “shakin’-dat-ass”-type song and I’m feelin’ it!! You REALLY are a king when it comes ta holdin’ down tha hook!! Tha king of Alexandria iz you, Captain; fuckin’ luv you, ya dig!! LOL @ how you sound on tha 1st verse; cheating style? Sounds like a (Not Boy) on tha 2nd verse, keepin’ this shit real catchy fa tha hoes! Tha 3rd verse iz you and it sounds gr8 wit tha explicit shit although it’s kinda an obsession and a lil’ too far when tha “club pauses for an ass,” lol? My Rating: 4.2
13. “She My Queen”
I like tha “queen” part in tha title; I think you gon hold it down here! >>> Nice, old-soundin’ beat again so you know this sounds good for a start!! Nice job wit tha catchy hook as for luvin’ someone… Tha 1st verse sounds good here. However, it’s more “cocaine cowboy” like Big Fancy ‘cause he’s known fa dat “I-10 Cowboy” song in Baton Rouge! Tha 2nd verse ain’t too bad… Sounds like a bridge towards tha end but then again, there’s still at least anotha minute left? Kinda long fa a bridge… My Rating: 3.8
14. “Gettin’ Real Money”
LOL @ this title; let’s see what you got… >>> LOL, HOT beat sound and tha hook’s DEFINITELY soundin’ pretty energetic and near-Crunk!! You’re “puttin’ it on fa err-body” on this track and what you do, ya heard me?!? Nothin’ but TIGHTNESS!!! LOL, in tha beginning of tha 2nd verse, it sounded like a mouse-click outta nowhere! Funny on this Crunk-soundin’ song!! Regardless, it’s DEFINITELY a GR8 2nd verse and a NICE track, overall!! My Rating: 4.6
15. “On My Dick”
What tha…? >>> Beat’s cool; I see why you made a song like dis… Just an aight 1st verse; I thought you weren’t “single”? I don’t think I know many 36 year-old rappers that have a sex drive this high in music, lol… Kinda a silly song fa me so I really don’t have a comment… My Rating: 3.7
16. “ICU Looking”
LOL @ havin’ “I see you” as an “ICU,” lol!! Interestin’ so maybe, they’re “looking” in tha “ICU,” lol? >>> Cool beat sound here for tha beginning… Tha 1st verse’s not bad; interestin’ wit how it sounds when you deliver tha rhymes on this beat. Okay, tha hook sounds catchy; kinda sounds like some shit I can hear easily… Tha 2nd verse’s keepin’ it goin’ here… Tha 3rd verse’s makin’ this sound like a jam so it’s pretty good… My Rating: 4.1
17. “Let Me Live My Life”
What I gon hear? >>> Ooh, a beat tag and tha beat’s pretty tight here! You’re REALLY holdin’ down tha hook as to where I give it a BIG, fat A!! Tha 1st verse iz you just strictly holdin’ it down fa yaself, which iz a plus! Keep this shit goin’, big dawg!! An interestin’ flow in tha 2nd verse here; nice job wit this shit, ya dig? You keepin’ tha catchy flow goin’ in tha 3rd verse too; thumbs up! My Rating: 4.4
18. “A-Town B Ballin’” Feat. (Not Boy$)
Interestin’ wit tha letters so you KNOW I gon look forward ta dis!! >>> Huh @ tha R&B start? Tha title looks more like it would go hard than soft? It’s still pretty catchy though… Sounds like some (Not Boy)-type shit in tha 1st verse here; good rappin’! Oh, I hear tha title closer and I thought it had ta do wit “B-ballin’” (like “B-”Boy, lol; but, it’s “be”)… Tha 2nd verse sounds like some good, fast rappin’! Pretty good here… You’re on tha 3rd verse here and tha fast rappin’ iz helpin’ here; catchy shit! Even a 4th verse here from you and it sounds like dat fast-rapped ending from one of tha earlier songs on here!! Actually, I think it iz dat same part ‘cause I heard tha “pop a pill” shit; interestin’ resurrection! Huh? Tha fade-out’s startin’ @ :42 left? Weird, yet, early… That lead to 16 seconds of silence… My Rating: 4.4
19. “I Need U” Feat. (Not Girl$)
Looks like tha R&B flava gon continue? >>> Slow start; I hear (Not Girl$) in tha hook here… This iz kinda catchy but aight fa me… You’re pretty good wit tha rappin’ on tha 1st verse, just doin’ ya thang… Not Girl$-type rappin’ on tha 2nd verse here from tha female; good and consistent… You’re on tha 3rd verse and lol, you, “sank tha Titanic!” Nice lil’ verse from you… My Rating: 4.0
20. “Text Me Dat Pussy”
What a way ta end this, lol! >>> Tha beat’s cool here; funny kinda title wit a deeper topic as it iz! Nice job on tha hook; let’s see how you do on tha 1st verse… Sounds a lil’ too addictin’ here on tha 1st verse; lol @ tha “MySpace” shit… Tha rappin’ sounds a lil’ shitty at times (e.g., “Mike Jones” and how tha flow sounds), almost like a mainstream song fa me… Damn @ all tha shit in tha 2nd verse; there’s no such thing as “goin’ too far,” lol? Tha 3rd verse has a shitty start wit tha “tryna fuck every girl in tha world” ‘cause it sounds like you’re just absorbed into a stupid Wayne quote or somethin’… Cool beat here but tha lyrics just are trash to me. My Rating: 3.6
Overall: VERY HOT CD here!!! Much betta than I expected!! I didn’t realize y’all had this REAL GR8 production behind you as well as tha catchy-ass soundin’ songs!!! Keep up tha GR8 work!! I still got two mo reviewz comin’ up fa you!!

Got my 4th review for today up now: my boy Zippa Castro “Everybody Hates Zip”! I’m kinda like, “Don’t say dat!” Then again, haters = motivation? Start Time: 11:57 PM | End Time: 1:17 AM
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. “Intro”
What you got this time, Zip? >>> Interestin’ first few seconds in tha beginning and now, I hear tha beat… Sounds pretty nice here wit you holdin’ it down too; good shit! You’re nice and consistent here on tha “intro,” ya dig? I like how you say tha album title towards tha end; catchy shit, lol! My Rating: 4.2
02. “Pass Me A Drink” Feat. Sam I Am & Lil’ Cali
What a GR8 2nd song already, lol!! You doin’ it B.I.G.!! Really lookin’ forward ta hearin’ dis!! >>> “Roy Slim on tha beat”? Iz dat what I heard? Tha hook’s not bad; thought it would be more energetic but tha beat’s cool here! LOL, Sam I Am’s already on tha 1st verse here; I’ll put him above Cali in tha ID since he’s first. Soundin’ pretty good on this beat wit his crazy-ass!! I’m hearin’ tha hook for tha 2nd time and it’s soundin’ NICE and REAL catchy wit this “bape/cape/ape” shit, lol!! Cali’s on tha 2nd verse and he’s real catchy on this shit!! Towards tha 2nd ½ of his verse, it almost sounded familiar. However, it was cleared up dat he said your name towards tha end of tha verse so you know y’all keep it real to tha fullest! You’re on tha 3rd verse here and it’s soundin’ pretty good; you have a GR8 voice ta hold it down fa a white boy when it comes ta tha Boot’s undaground! LOL, tha last second in tha beat sounded like it got cut off or somethin’, lol? My Rating: 4.5
03. “Fly Like A Bird”
Kinda like my boy Beezy “Bird,” lol! >>> Tha beat sounds cool here for you… Nice job on tha 1st verse and tha hook’s you on your motivated “mission;” thumbs up… LOL @ tha 2nd verse wit all tha “dead birds;” very interestin’, “bird” style, lol!! “Duct-tape every hole that you breathe through;” wow!! Pretty gutta right there, lol!! My Rating: 4.3
04. “I Hustle” Feat. Young Hustle
Ooh @ tha feature here! >>> Kinda decent on tha beat start… LOL, I was just talkin’ to my boy on tha phone and he mentioned Young Hustle’s name and I was like, “Weren’t you ‘pose ta give me his MySpace [if he even has one] link from two-and-a-half years ago,” lol? Anyway, sounded like Hustle in tha 1st verse and it was just okay for me… Tha hook’s straight too; sounds catchy wit tha title. This beat’s aight fa me; tha previous ones were betta though… You’re on tha 2nd verse and it’s soundin’ a lil’ betta here; you holdin’ it down… Regardless of what comes outta Young Hustle, in any event, I always anticipate him from tha A-Mar “My Gutta Wayz” and “Raggz 2 Riches” dayz! My Rating: 3.8
05. “Fresh (Flow)”
What you got here? >>> Was gonna say, “familiar beat?” Then again, I rememba this; kinda “bleh” for tha original version so at least you rappin’ on it ta make it less “bleh!” Good rappin’; catchy rhymes… My Rating: 3.9
06. Fall Off In The Party (Skit)
Ooh, a skit (just as long as tha last song, lol)? Good; lemme hear… >>> Sounds like you’re at tha club or somethin’ in tha background? Oh, I think you said you’re “at someone’s crib;” I see… Nice lil’ skit here, Zip! My Rating: N/A
07. “Who Got It” Feat. Dirty Jesus
Interestin’ ID here; lookin’ forward… >>> Wow, just came in within tha first second and it’s TIGHT in tha beginning wit tha “who like ta smoke a lot” shit in tha beginning!! Nice shit from Dirty Jesus, doin’ tha damn thang on tha hook for you!! You’re on tha 1st verse here and it’s soundin’ pretty good on this beat; nice lil’ “smokin’”-type lyrics! LOL, Dirty Jesus was not on tha hook? Or, was that just a made-hook? Sounds more like him on tha 2nd verse here and it sounds like someone you fuck wit pretty tough… Good fa what it iz here… My Rating: 4.4
08. “Larry Flynt Hustler” Feat. One-i & Young Bleed
Oh yea, tha single, which I premiered on my radio show already at least four months ago; damn, time flies!! Lemme review this, finally… >>> Okay, I rememba tha pretty good beat intro wit tha siren; good shit! One-i’s first so I gon flip him in tha ID… He doin’ a nice job fa you here, ya dig? I rememba when I first heard tha hook, I was like, “No!! A dancin’ song!!” But, this iz acceptable so you get a pass, ya heard me? It’s pretty catchy, especially tha “roll” shit! Bleed’s on tha 2nd verse and it sounds cool ta have him on a song like dis; he’s real consistent wit it! You’re on tha 3rd verse and tha flow’s pretty catchy wit tha rhymes here! My Current Rating: 4.4
09. “Winding Road”
What’ll this be like? >>> Kinda sad-soundin’ start… Oh, wow, tha catchiness really picked up in tha hook!! I really like how you handle tha beat here on tha hook wit your real shit!! Nice job wit comin’ through for tha 1st verse wit your good shit here… More catchy shit comin’ from you on tha 2nd verse here… Nice job doin’ ya thang on this joint! My Rating: 4.1
10. “I Feel Fine” Feat. Young Hustle
Yea @ anotha Young Hustle feature!! >>> This beat’s soundin’ more on tha energetic side so maybe, he’ll have a plus; extra-plus!! Shit, yea, I jynxed it!! Soundin’ REAL NICE on tha 1st verse here!! Good-ass shit from dat boy Hustle on tha 1st verse; REAL GLAD ta hear him from time-ta-time!! You’re on tha hook here and it’s cool; catchy shit here! LOL, thought it was Hustle on tha 2nd verse for a second but it’s you; good, catchy rhymes here wit a GR8 flow! My Rating: 4.3
½time: Sounds like a pretty good CD here; LOTS of consistent shit and you’re just REAL GR8 when it comes ta makin’ catchy music!! Glad you have REAL GR8 features here and it’s REAL NICE to where tha average CD rating’s at 4.2 right now!!
11. “Assholes” Feat. Deezy
I ROFL @ when I see tha word “asshole” in a title and hear it in a song so this iz DEFINITELY anticipatin’!! >>> Ooh, “Deezy did tha beat” and he’s even on tha 1st verse here! Nice shit comin’ from you; you have luck when you plan tha featured artists bein’ on tha 1st verse! Ooh, he’s on tha hook here and I’m really likin’ dis shit; good shit in tha hook, especially tha “assholes” shit when it comes ta grindin’ so hard, lol! Here you are in tha 2nd verse and ugh @ hearin’ dat word, “Winter!” 
It’s 55 degrees right now; like, WTF? It’s still Summer and it’s like, what happened to tha 90-106 degree weather last month in NY? It’s stupid PA so you know it’s tha mountains… I like tha “cartoon” line and all tha shit afta dat’s REAL catchy wit how you rhyme err-thang; good shit, Zip!! Deezy’s on tha 3rd verse here? Iz this his song featurin’ you? It’s all good though; he doin’ tha damn thang! You’re on tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse and it sounds like you’re keepin’ it goin’ here too! My Rating: 4.5
12. “That Kush” Feat. SlugOne & Perv
Have I heard SlugOne before? I keep thinkin’ Slugga that was affiliated wit Da Gremlins… Long length here so let’s see how good dis iz wit tha anticipatin’ title!! >>> Cool beat and an addictive Wayne sample here on tha hook!! I like tha person dat’s sayin’ “kush… kush” in tha background on tha hook! Tha 1st verse’s pretty good; interestin’ flow here wit a pretty good voice ta help you out. Iz this a J.R. Rotem beat (‘cause I heard tha certain siren sound come outta nowhere)? Doesn’t sound like somethin’ I’ve heard before… Pretty good shit here and let’s see what happens wit tha remainin’ verses… Wow @ tha start to tha 2nd verse; GR8 voice on dis shit!! Sounds pretty gutta like Sam I Am, only slower on tha flow! DEFINITELY liked tha 2nd verse!! Now, you must be left, Zip? Let’s see your verse on tha 3rd one… Definitely likin’ tha “kush”-related topics and shit you spittin’ here, my boy! “Let’s get fulla dat sticky;” GR8 way ta end tha verse!! My Rating: 4.5
13. “I Know” Feat. ChaYsuh & Grind
I was just thinkin’ ‘bout ChaYsuh on (I think Deezy’s collab) one of tha previous songs; surprised he appeared outta nowhere wit Grind!! Lookin’ forward ta hearin’!! >>> Grind did this beat and it’s soundin’ good; thumbs up! Nice job wit ChaY on tha intro and he’s doin’ a nice job on tha hook here too; personal/real shit! Tha length’s 5:40; pretty long but I don’t mind it ‘cause it ain’t no jacked beat or nothin’! Here’s tha 1st verse from ChaYsuh; dat real-ass shit! Was gonna say, “Good from a progressed perspective,” but we have tha exact same birthday, lol, so there’s no age difference… Nice job wit tha consistent content for tha Boot! Now, we got tha 2nd verse from Grind and it’s soundin’ GR8 wit tha way it’s delivered; good, personal shit from him too!! I like tha spelling and then, tha random singin’; nice tri-combo (includin’ tha rappin’) blend! It’s always you saved for last and here you are again on tha 3rd verse… Pretty good shit here; feelin’ how it’s shit seen on a daily-basis. Tha last minute iz for an outro and because it’s ChaYsuh, it’s DEFINITELY acceptable and NOT boring ta hear!! LOL, why did a part of tha beat (like tha beginning) play for a second at tha end and then, cut off? My Rating: 4.4
14. “SGT: Slaughter Raps” Feat. Young Hustle & Deezy
You have it as #15 on tha DatPiff tracklisting; I know sometimes it fails to put it in tha right position at times (which annoys tha shit outta me). Anyway, looks tight so you know I gon anticipate dis!! >>> LOL, could’ve sworn this beat was on someone else’s CD or somethin’…; I might’ve even aired it on my radio show? Not sure where it came from or if it’s jacked but tha 1st verse’s soundin’ good here wit tha rhymes! I like tha random “Marijuana” part; good shit! You’re on tha 2nd verse here and it’s soundin’ good; clearin’ up tha real and tha fake! Tha 3rd verse iz soundin’ good; mo hot, consistent shit here!! My Rating: 4.2
15. “All The Way” Feat. Cas & Chico
This collab kinda anticipates me so you know I’m lookin’ forward ta hearin’!! >>> Yea, DEFINITE plus on tha beat this time and tha hook’s REALLY HOT to tha bone!! Consistent-ass shit here in tha 1st verse from Chico; dat white boy-type shit dat’s just TOO HOT!! LOL, didn’t realize this was 5:12; that’s what’s up!! Startin’ ta sound a lil’ like Lil’ Witness on tha 1st verse too; good job here!! Cas’s on tha 2nd verse here and usually, I flip tha ID. But, because they’re usually a team, I’ll just leave it tha way it iz. Good shit here on this beat; thumbs up fa tha production helpin’ tha rappin’! Here you are on tha last verse again, lol! Spittin’ dat “Louisiana” shit to tha fullest!! VERY GOOD rhymin’ here, Zip!! “½ ‘em like fractions;” dumb shit!! Real quick-soundin’ fade-out ta where it left 10 seconds of silence… My Rating: 4.5
16. “Fed Up”
Anotha flipped error on tha DatPiff tracklisting as it’s labeled as #17 but iz #16. Anyway, thought I saw someone wit this title just yesterday; let’s see how you come wit it… >>> Anticipatin’ start in tha beat and it sounds pretty good wit you rappin’ in tha beginning here! Oh, it’s tha hook and it sounds catchy; good shit! Here’s tha 1st verse and you “should’ve been born wit feathers,” lol; true shit! I like your street content as well as mixin’ it wit your personal life too! Tha 2nd verse sounds like it’s pretty good also; nice job wit addin’ more and more to tha track! My Rating: 4.2
17. “I Get Stoned” Feat. Young Hustle
Looks like a moment I would be waiting for or somethin’, lol!! What’ll this be like? >>> Oh, shit!! “I Love College” beat and Tha Cooch iz on my background on my laptop right now!! 
She liked this song so it’s quite ironic dat it’s here!! LOL, kinda long intro but here you are on tha 1st verse! LOL, you sounded just like Asher here on tha 1st verse at first, lol! Pretty good; you doin’ it big!! Wow, tha hook’s pretty catchy as fuck (you already know)!! I like tha “bong” shit, lol!! Hustle’s on tha 2nd verse and this iz a plus here from him; catchy rhymin’… My Rating: 4.3
18. “Rock N Roll” Feat. One-i
Ooh, a One-i collaboration right chea again! Glad ta hear him again so you know this’ll be mo hot shit!! >>> LOL, louder start here and it sounds pretty nice on tha beat! You’re on tha 1st verse and I almost thought you were singin’ as if it was a Rock song fa a second, lol! Nice lil’ job here wit your catchy shit you be spittin’… Tha hook’s cool; more catchy shit from you! LOL, here comes One-i on tha 2nd verse and he has a GR8 flow fa dis shit; he fits PERFECT on a beat like dis!! Cool-ass shit from One-i, helpin’ you out once again!! My Rating: 4.3
19. “Coolin’ In Ya City”
I see dat word “coolin’” in a title and I instantly think of a jacked beat for some reason… >>> Don’t think I know this one; not bad start… I like how you start it off wit tha “coolin’ in ya city” and tha “heater” shit; interestin’ hook. Tha 1st verse sounds like a drug scene for a come-up; interestin’… Tha 2nd verse has a lotta “-ound” shit when it comes to tha rhymes; glad you keepin’ tha flow and rhymes really catchy, especially wit tha content! For some reason, when it’s just you on tha track, I don’t picture tha tracks bein’ 4:10+ on tha length; I guess ‘cause usually, your songs are shorter… Wit that bein’ said, a 3rd verse iz here and it sounds like some more in-depth shit about tha drugs goin’ on “in tha city;” interestin’ shit fa me ta hear! My Rating: 4.2
20. “Hangin’ Out Tha Window”
A funny title here; I know I gon like dis! >>> Sounds like an anticipatin’ beat start here! Afta 26 seconds, here’s tha hook and it’s pretty catchy; sounds nice, funny and just, you! You feelin’ good on tha 1st verse here; ALWAYS a Castro life wit Zippa, lol! I like how tha verse ended wit, “I’m actin’ like an asshole,” lol! Sounds like a lotta catchy end-lines on tha 2nd verse here; good shit! Glad you ALWAYS rock “tha dumb way!” My Rating: 4.1
21. “Over” Feat. Drake
BOOOOO @ tha feature and end!!! What kinda ending iz this? >>> Ugh… Why I gotta deal wit dis? WTF? He’s even on tha 1st verse? Why? Finally, at 1:57, here you are on tha 2nd verse… Tha catchy rhymes are comin’ from you but I have to heavily take off for not only tha hook but a used verse too… I’m likin’ how you keepin’ it consistent, though! My Rating: 3.3
Overall: You had a SHITLOAD of consistentness here!! I like how tha cover has a lil’ color effect in it; good shit! You have a good ear for beats to make it feel at home for tha Boot and you have a GR8 voice that stands out on this Rap shit! You, A-Mar, Dyl, Cas, Chico, Lil’ Pado, Young Hustle, One-i and all tha up-n-comin’ white boys from tha Boot are ALWAYS tha shit and y’all keep doin’ what y’all doin’!!
