Review #791: ChaYsuh & Grind "Unda-Estimated Vol. 3: Break 'Em Off (Reloaded) (Hosted by DJ PK1)"

Reviewed on 12.29.2010 & 1.20.2011 (Review #791)




Wit my 2nd review of tha day, I was unaware I had an extra CD I didn’t review. I had gotten CDs from ChaYsuh back in tha Spring of this year. For some reason, I remember seein’ ‘em and thinkin’ one of them was one of tha CDs I had already reviewed. But, what I found was ChaYsuh & Grind “Unda-Estimated Vol. 3: Break ‘Em Off (Reloaded) (Hosted by DJ PK1)”, which I was like, “I betta review it!” Damn, tha original “Unda-Estimated Vol. 3: Break ‘Em Off” was 406 reviewz ago!!! Talk about heavy grindin’!! Tha only thing iz I don’t have a tracklisting so whateva I don’t know gon be hard ta tell what it’s called and all dat. Start Time: 10:06 AM | End Time: 10:39 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. 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 (GoDJ PK1 Checks In)
>>> Sounds good; thumbs up fa addin’ tha beats in tha background, too! My Rating: N/A


02. “Bop”
Pretty good start here wit tha beat. Tha 1st verse was not bad and tha hook iz ChaYsuh doin’ his lil’ “bop, bop” shit, lol. Tha 2nd verse from Grind was not bad as well. This was an okay song fa what it was; a lil’ short. My Current Rating: 3.9


03. “Grind All Day”
Tha beat iz for tha streetz and Grind soundin’ good wit his shit on tha 1st verse. He looks like he knows his math! You know, 51 x 49 = 2499, 301 x 299 = 89,999, and 1,111 x 1,111 = 1,234,321, lol!! I feel dat err-street dude gon luv dis one! Dat hook iz strictly street! When I hear tha beat, it reminds me of “Duffle Bag Boy”. ChaYsuh, you do tha damn thang here; I like you and Grind’s verses tha same. Y’all both have a real tight part towards tha end: Grind had tha math and you have tha fish shit (e.g., “if you want beef, I gotta quarter pounder”)! Definitely tight, ya dig?!? Tha 3rd verse from both Grind and then ChaYsuh was nice; definitely good collaboratin’!! My Current Rating: 4.5


04. “Never Break Me Down” Feat. C-IV
>>> I believe this one’s unknown fa me. Tha beat sounds good and ChaYsuh sounds decent on tha 1st verse; feelin’ tha rhymes/content. Tha hook’s pretty good; y’all have tha stamina! LOL, C-IV’s on tha 2nd verse, spittin’ good shit here! I like how he comes through on tha mic and keeps shit comin’! Grind’s doin’ a nice job on tha 3rd verse, too, keepin’ shit comin’ along! My Rating: 4.0


05. “Keep It Real” Feat. Bizzie K
>>> Sounds like an odd voice on tha hook, lol. ChaYsuh’s got rhymes on lock here on tha 1st verse, doin’ tha damn thang. Pretty catchy song overall; “not fuckin’ wit us gangstas!” Damn, I know this voice on tha 2nd verse; not sure why it’s not clickin’ in my head right now [Bizzie K]… Good shit, as this shit’s stayin’ consistent! Grind’s keepin’ tha hot shit comin’ wit tha 3rd verse; definite plus! My Rating: 4.2


06. “I’mma Be Me”
>>> This iz somethin’ I ain’t heard, either. Grind’s comin’ through wit some consistent shit once again fa tha 1st verse! It’s all about dat good, Southern vibe! Tha hook sounds pretty good; reminds me of a Summer feel. Too bad it’s Winter now… ChaYsuh spittin’ some good shit on tha 2nd verse, too. Y’all keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 3rd verse, too; Grind’s definitely doin’ a nice job here!! ChaYsuh’s keepin’ it goin’, too… My Rating: 4.1


07. “Most Niggaz Be Hoez”
>>> Tha beat start’s pretty hot!! Wow, this has ta be tha best one I ain’t heard, yet; crazy hook!!! Grind showin’ a real catchy side here!! “Most niggaz be hooooooooeeeeeesss,” lol! Even tha 1st verse from him’s definitely on ‘n’ poppin’ here! Grind even keepin’ it goin’ on tha 2nd verse, too! Tha beat sounds so catchy in tha background of tha rappin’, too! LOL, a Grind solo tha whole time? Interestin’… He holdin’ down tha 3rd verse, too, keepin’ tha consistent shit on ‘n’ poppin’! “How you gon talk dollars when you can’t even make cents;” dumb shit/great line!!! My Rating: 4.6


08. “Too Choosey” Feat. C-IV
>>> Grind beat tag; uh oh, lol! Sounds like a good start; I like tha “too choosey” theme wit tha song! Nice job wit tha 1st verse right chea. Ooh, tha hook’s pretty good; tha beat got betta, too. Catchy shit right here wit tha hook, so, nice job, ChaYsuh! Let’s hear what we got from tha C-IV dude on tha 2nd verse… Off to a good start. He did his thang wit tha verse! Glad he had sum shit ta spit and I look forward ta even more of it in tha future (same goes for tha otha featured people on this CD)! ChaYsuh comin’ through wit his revealin’ system in tha 3rd verse, detectin’ tha pussy in people! Nice job wit this joint right here; gotta luv how this CD’s goin’!! My Current Rating: 4.3


09. “Get It Tonight”
>>> Tha beginning sounds interestin’, like a radio start. Now, it sounds good wit tryna get dis girl; good intro, ChaYsuh! Ooh, Grind came outta nowhere on tha 1st verse; he more consistent than eva on this CD!! Ooh, even doin’ tha hook wit dis catchy-ass “you can get it, you can get it…” shit! Tha beat’s even on ‘n’ poppin’ once again, too! LOL, here’s ChaYsuh on tha 2nd verse, doin’ his thang to tha fullest! I like how he deliverin’ shit fa tha ladies here; good job! My Rating: 4.4


½time: Sounds like a much betta, updated version of tha CD! Y’all have a 4.3 for tha CD rating right now; keep it up!!


10. “Beat It Up”
>>> Anotha catchy beginning from Grind, really holdin’ it down!! Catchy “beat it up”-type song here; good shit once again!! ChaYsuh doin’ a nice job here, too; y’all a great team! Even comin’ through on tha 3rd verse, too; you know what it iz! Grind’s addin’ some good, catchy shit, too! My Rating: 4.2


11. “Cuff Yo Chick”
>>> Sounds like a Grind beat tag again in tha beginning. Interestin’ hook from ChaYsuh, gettin’ ready fa tha ladies again, lol. I’m likin’ this consistency wit tha songs fa tha ladies unlike on other peoples’ CDs! LOL, “quack like a duck;” let’s hear tha lady, lol!! LOL, you’re gettin’ even dirtier on tha 2nd verse, lol! This must be ChaYsuh’s solo, soundin’ good on tha 3rd verse, too! My Rating: 4.1


12. “Rockin’ Wit Da Best”
Pretty good start here wit tha beat; Grind doin’ his thang here. You know ChaYsuh comes through wit tha hook that’s catchy!! Who doesn’t wanna “rock wit da best?” Even tha 2nd verse has Grind on it, explainin’ how he does and how he did it wit tha Rap game! Nice job on tha 2nd verse; would’ve prolly been cool if ChaYsuh had tha 2nd verse, though. My Current Rating: 4.0


13. “Gotta Shine” Feat. Big Duece
>>> This one’s much longer and a lil’ slower on tha beat start. ChaYsuh, you’re startin’ off this one and you’re soundin’ more “into it” wit tha way you’re deliverin’ this. I hope this ain’t gon be a sad song… Okay, tha hook iz tight; I like how you’re doin’ it this time, ChaYsuh! Good job and now, we got Grind on tha 2nd verse… Sounds like he inta makin’ this song wit tha way he comin’ through; good shit. ChaYsuh, you’re doin’ tha 3rd verse too here. You had success in “gym” wit your “rhymes”? Good shit. You really have “two kids” and you’re born on my exact birthday, ChaYsuh? Damn… I was surprised when I found out you had one already. I guess good job and it’s good ta have at least a son. I don’t know what else ta say about dat… Tha outro has at least a minute of talkin’ here… I guess this iz good; I would’ve pictured this bein’ tha last song on this CD. My Current Rating: 3.8


14. “Can't Sell Dope Forever” Feat. Bizzie K
>>> Don’t think I heard dis one before. Tha beat ain’t too bad but Grind has tha voice ta hold thangz down! Interestin’ hook wit “can’t sell dope faeva;” good topic, Grind! One of tha crew members of tha Grindstarz clique’s on tha 2nd verse [Bizzie K], spittin’ some good shit, too. Even doin’ tha damn thang on tha 3rd verse, Grind; ChaYsuhless, lol. My Rating: 4.2


15. “Just Believe In Me”
A lil’ slow, horse/pony-type beat here. Grind iz on tha 1st verse here and I like his “I stressed on a loose-leaf” part. That’s cool also that he “made his own beats,” too. A lil’ different on tha hook so I can’t say much. ChaYsuh comin’ through from his life on tha 2nd verse; that’s all I can say… Tha 3rd verse has both Grind and then ChaYsuh on it, soundin’ good once again wit tha lyrics. My Current Rating: 3.7


16. “Angel”
A lil’ scary for tha start; you know I don’t like when everybody does these sample tracks. It took a while for tha 1st verse but it’s finally here wit Grind on it. It sounds like he in luv once again here. It also sounded like tha verse just ended without an expectation. Grind had an okay 2nd verse too on this… This song startin’ ta sound random wit tha sample just repeatin’. This song has no ChaYsuh on it? There wasn’t much goin’ on wit tha 3rd verse… Because this was a good year, you know I won’t mind this on my iPod! I feel dat my original 3.0 rating should rise. My Current Rating: 3.4


17. “The Way I Feel” Feat. Jessica Scarbrough
Now, it sounds like The Little Mermaid sound effects in tha beginning; what’ll happen? Iz ChaYsuh drinkin’ somethin’ or smokin’ somethin’ in tha beginning wit tha “*sound effect* ahh…?” Here he iz on tha 1st verse and it sounds like he in luv once again. Tha singin’ was aight on tha hook; this iz tha kinda ending song for a CD at times although there’s one more left. Tha 2nd verse sounded short and was aight. And, here’s a phone call towards tha end… There’s still at least 80 seconds left here… There wasn’t really a conversation and then, tha hook repeated. My Current Rating: 2.6


18. “Spend The Night”
>>> Endin’ it wit A-Tune? I hope it’s good fa tha ladies again like y’all had those previous two songs earlier on this CD. Tha hook sounds betta than I expected. I guess it’s good for my iPod though so I’ll give it a plus. Nice job wit Grind on tha 1st verse, comin’ through wit his luvable lyrics fa tha ladies, lol. I’m startin’ ta like tha hook betta here; I like tha “horny” part for tha ladies. Here’s ChaYsuh on tha 2nd verse… More on tha 30+ R&B style here wit tha lyrics. I was expectin’ some explicit lyrics as usual… I thought this song was gonna have a 3rd verse… My Current Rating: 3.9


Overall: Even though rated tha same, I felt like this was an improvement at first. But then, wit some of tha ratings—even though I liked tha songs a lil’ bit, this CD iz just about tha same as tha original one for me.
