Review #737: Boo "A Thug'z Touch"

Reviewed on 12.22.2010 (Review #737)




Time ta set a record… ***REVIEW #12*** for today: Boo “A Thug’z Touch”. This izn’t Boo tha producer, known for his work wit tha Short Bus Boyz and Young Kidd Kidd, though. This iz Boo wit CTA Productions. Start Time: 9:34 PM | End Time: 10:34 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. 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. “Blow Up”
It’s a song so lemme hear… >>> Ooh, pretty nice production in tha start here. Tha hook’s somethin’ nice; doesn’t even sound like a “mainstream-‘blow-up’”-type when it comes ta tha quality, luckily. Tha 1st verse sounded pretty good; you comin’ through wit some shit fa “[yo] city.” Catchy rhymes throughout tha 2nd verse, too… My Rating: 4.2


02. “Do Somethin’”
>>> Not tha soft Lil’ Scrappy beat, lol… Good advice and not too bad for me. My Rating: 3.4


03. “Felt This Way”
>>> Now this iz a boring start. Not that bad but nothin’ special for me. My Rating: 2.6


04. “Good Liquor”
>>> Sounds like you finna go off on this Gorilla Zoe beat. Iz this CD from ’07 ‘cause of these beats? Pretty good wit how you handled dis one, ya dig? My Rating: 3.6


05. Skit
>>> Damn, this skit’s 2.5 minutes? Sounds like it gon be a TV show; interestin’. “WBITCH,” lol. Pretty good, long skit. My Rating: N/A


06. “Shine”
LOL, I rememba hearin’ dis recently. LOL, I guess dis ain’t from 2007 ‘cause you said, “2010.” Anyway, my previous review: I know what tha beat iz and sounds kinda funny wit you on it. You got “so much weed in tha blunt,” huh? Pretty smokepressive, lol! This iz decent/above average but why iz it almost 4.5 minutes long? My Current Rating: 3.4


07. “Zoom In Highland Park”
>>> Sounds jammin’ on tha “Stuntin’ Like My Daddy” beat. Short but sweet… My Rating: 3.5


08. “Kemosabiez”
LOL? >>> Damn, dat cheesy mix-trick in tha beginning. Kinda long (now, it’s long, lol) but you keepin’ tha rhymes comin’. I like dat “Girbauds” part when it was about tha “straps.” My Rating: 3.7


½time: Not bad; 3.5 for tha CD rating so far. Where’s songs like #1?


09. “Don’t Really Matter”
>>> I like tha sample but not as a chipmunk or on this soft beat. What’s up wit tha “Lil’ Boosie” shit? You said you named this CD afta him? LOL…? Kinda boring fa me so I “don’t really” have interest fa dis. My Rating: 2.3


10. “I’m Solo”
>>> Damn, 4:20 on tha length? Tha beat sounds a lil’ too soft fa me ta wait dat long… Kinda tha same condition I’m in wit doin’ buku thangz “by myself” ‘cause of lack of people. But, it’s not tha kinda shit I wanna hear on a soft beat… My Rating: 2.5


11. “Potion Patron”
>>> Sounds like a catchy start. Good shit right here, my boy! Tha rhymes were good and this flowed through nicely. My Rating: 3.5


12. “Take Notes”
Heard this before… Started immediately, lol. What tha hell? Why a rewind-jack on how they did it on Lil’ Phat’s “Death Before Dishonor” CD by playin’ a few seconds and then, rewindin’ to tha beginning? Anyway, Young K.T. did this beat, too, and it’s decent—betta than bullshit! I like tha “notes” in tha hook (originally was gonna call them “rules”, lol). This iz a catchy song; tha verses are pretty good, too. My Current Rating: 3.8


13. “We Try”
>>> Smooth beat that I’m kinda likin’ and tha content’s good, too. Tha hook’s kinda sappy wit tha singin’… Other than that, good content once again. My Rating: 2.8


14. “My Niggas”
Really without an apostrophe. >>> SMH, why does this Jordin Sparks “Tattoo” beat keep comin’ up in my reviewz? And, it’s only tha intro I’m hearin’; how weird. Good wit what luv you’re showin’ but shit, how long do I have ta deal wit dis? Why iz this over four minutes? Why mix a title like dis wit a “Tattoo” beat? My Rating: 1.7


15. “Powder Head”
LOL… >>> LOL, what was dat intro? This sounds somewhat good but I thought it was gonna be a rendition of Magnolia Slim’s “Powda Bag”. I guess we gotta keep it in a ’10 perspective, unfortunately. But, tha beat’s not too bad and it sounds like you got tha content on lock. I’m also not sure if I like dis flow too much… This should’ve been a lil’ shorter. Some of these songs should be no longer than three minutes… I like tha random screwed voices; those are pluses. My Rating: 3.7


16. “Rap Hustlin’”
>>> Tha final song and it’s pretty good. Pretty good content wit how you comin’ through, representin’ fa yourself in tha hood. Ooh, I like dat “as I inhale…” shit. Pretty much a nice jam here, ya dig? My Rating: 4.0


Overall: Nothin’ excitin’ but nothin’ too bad.
