Review #817: Hollidae a.k.a. Confusion "A New Year's Breed"

Reviewed on 1.21.2011 (Review #817)




This next review I believe iz a 2009 CD, accordin’ ta DatPiff. New Orleans artist Hollidae a.k.a. Confusion “A New Year’s Breed”; 310 Hurricane Records on this one. Start Time: 11:25 AM | End Time: 11:57 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
>>> Nice “ward” representations, here, in tha beginning! I thought this would be random, boring music (since I neva heard of you before), but it’s soundin’ pretty catchy wit this intro startin’ off! I won’t consider this an actual song and just an intro. My Rating: N/A


02. “Get At U”
>>> Maybe it won’t be my kinda shit; 5:00 on tha length? I like how you’re rappin’ but this ain’t really my kinda shit. My Rating: 3.4


03. “All In My Biz”
>>> Even though tha length’s still a lil’ long, it sounds like a good intro. Okay, this iz betta! Tha fast rappin’ from tha last song iz here and tha sound iz betta; good topic! My Rating: 3.8


04. “I’ma Get Me”
>>> Sounds like a tight beat start! Tha hook’s pretty catchy; definitely on point here! Your rappin’ iz nice; gotta luv tha consistency!! My Rating: 4.3


05. “Let’s Go”
>>> Sounds like a Bounce rhythm; hot shit! What tight rappin’; nice and consistent! My Rating: 4.4


06. Skit
>>> LOL, an instant skit! You know I luv Urban people’s dialect!! Usually, I’d expect a lot of “bruh”s but there were a lot of “dawg”s in this one; good shit! My Rating: N/A


07. “Please”
>>> No features listed? I like tha catchiness here! Definitely a hot hook; “please,” lol!! Catchiness tha whole way through!! My Rating: 4.3


08. “New Year’s Breed”
I believe an apostrophe iz in “year’s”. >>> Ooh, this sounds like some old, Early ‘00s Louisiana-type shit!! Definitely good shit; reminds me of Lil’ Witness a lil’!! What a crazy-ass song!!! My Rating: 4.8


09. “Two Masters”
>>> LOL, interestin’ title. I like how you sound in tha intro wit dis title; nice and random! This sounds like more hot music! I really like how you deliverin’ these rhymes and lyrics! It’s really buildin’ up toward tha end of tha 1st verse and in tha hook wit your voice!! My Rating: 4.5


10. Skit
Ooh, anotha skit! >>> Eddie Bo/310 Hurricane Records in tha buildin’; thumbs up! LOL @ tha hissin’ in tha background of tha talkin’! I wonder how y’all get so many voiceovers? Was it hard ta get ‘em? Good skit. My Rating: N/A


11. “Catch Me”
>>> A short song; let’s see how it sounds… Tha rappin’ sounds like non-Southern music in this one. You still sound like you’re deliverin’ some catchy shit, though. Interestin’… My Rating: 4.0


½time: A 4.2-rated CD; how far up or down will it continue ta go?


12. “Lala Lala”
>>> As always, not crazy about beats wit high-pitched versions of samples and shit—make dat just samples. Your rappin’ iz still pretty good but overall, this ain’t nothin’ really special fa me… My Rating: 2.9


13. “Murderer”
>>> Whoa, we’re back to tha tightness again!! Sounds like some older Louisiana shit; definite plus!! Really feelin’ tha rappin’, here, and tha consistency you bringin’ wit all tha rhymes!! My Rating: 4.6


14. “In The Pressence”
>>> I’m likin’ tha beat once again! Glad you know what you want as far as good production behind you! Tha rappin’ iz great, too; keepin’ tha hotness comin’ at all times!! Tha hook’s official, too; you know what ta rap about and keep tha streetz happy! My Rating: 4.5


15. “Run”
>>> Keepin’ tha anticipatin’ music comin’ along! LOL @ this shit; tha “run” shit in tha hook sounds catchy as hell! Ooh, here comes tha rappin’ from you, makin’ tha track sound much betta!! My Rating: 4.7


16. “Crash Dummies”
Feelin’ these titles you bringin’ onta tha mixtape here! >>> I like your intro; thumbs up to tha dialect again!! Real consistent wit tha rappin’; gotta luv it!! Tha hook’s tha truth, too! Glad this mixtape’s really gettin’ betta!! My Rating: 4.4


17. “Take U Away”
>>> Oh no, a long song… Actually, sounds pretty tight wit how you comin’ through on tha hook; definite street shit!! Tha production iz definitely catchy and how you comin’ through on this shit iz a plus; nothin’ but consistent, street shit from you!! My Rating: 4.4


18. “Mercy On Me”
>>> Sounds like tha consistency just died. Tha rappin’ iz nice, though; I’ll give dat a plus. Tha hook’s pretty interestin’ wit this content, too. Tha beat’s boring; that’s all. My Rating: 3.6


19. “Full Of That Liquor”
Forgot a space between “ThatLiquor”, lol? >>> Sounds like y’all wanna do some funny-soundin’ music, here, lol. This iz interestin’ but what’s wit tha near-six-minute length? My Rating: 4.2


20. Skit
>>> Ooh, anotha one, lol. It sounds like a continuation from tha previous one wit havin’ tha CDs. Not bad for a skit… My Rating: N/A


21. “Get Me”
>>> That beat sound iz pretty catchy in tha beginning! Good shit throughout this song; feelin’ tha “thief through tha night” part in tha hook! Thumbs up fa makin’ dis shit catchy as hell, once again! My Rating: 4.3


22. Outro
>>> LOL, almost sounded like someone said my name in tha beginning, lol. Ooh, tha dialect again!! Y’all a beast wit tha “dawg” shit and all tha dialect!! My Rating: N/A


Overall: I was definitely feelin’ dis shit right chea!! You really know how ta rap and do tha damn thang on what kinda jointz you like to rap on, ya dig? Keep up tha great work!!
