Review #851: A.u. "FAF (Fame And Fortune)"

Reviewed on 3.03.2011 (Review #851)


Comin’ up next, hopefully betta, iz my boy A.u. “FAF (Fame And Fortune)!! Start Time: 8:59 PM | End Time: 9:29 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.

© 2011 CD Review (Review #851) reviewed on 3.03.2011 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “Finally”
“Finally” gettin’ ta this CD! I’m slowly catchin’ up… >>> Almost a scary start… Good shit you got here wit tha rappin’; it goes good wit tha hook. My Rating: 4.1


02. “Self-Made Man”
>>> Jacked beat ‘cause of tha beat tag? At least it sounds betta-than-average… Long, 47-second intro but it leads to a pretty-good hook. Nice, motivated-type joint, here… My Rating: 4.2


03. “Candy Paint” Feat. Dino Danja & Dae~Dae
Been waitin’ ta hear since Dae sent me. >>> Sounds good… Nice job wit how you made this track become a track; good hook, good beat, good you. Dat’s not Dae~Dae on tha 2nd verse; not sure why he’s 1st in tha ID… Not-bad 2nd verse; it fits wit tha song. Finally, Dae~Dae, really, on tha 3rd verse. Of course, nothin’ but catchiness outta dat voice!! My Rating: 4.5


04. “Party People”
LOL… Already reviewed this previously and it gets a thumbs up fa bein’ on here. My Current Rating: 4.3


05. “I Gotcha”
>>> Gay start; not lookin’ forward to hearin’ tha rest. Why tha Drake flow? :confused I don’t get people… My Rating: 2.0


06. “My Momma, My Lady”
>>> Good intro wit tha “high” voice but not my kinda shit. Good, positive advice, at least. My Rating: 2.8


07. “Respect My Grind” Feat. Dae~Dae
>>> Tha beat intro’s pretty nice; this ain’t gonna be a “swag” song, I hope…? Prolly could’ve subtracted dat Jeezy sample for tha hook and made somethin’ interestin’, instead… Ooh, Dae on tha 1st verse, comin’ through wit pure fiya!! A clear-soundin’ voice ta hold shit down!! You’re doin’ a nice job, too, A! Then again, tha flow’s still annoyin’ me, a lil’… My Rating: 4.2


08. “Rollin’ Deep” Feat. Hollywood & Gutta Gucci
Still no name change in his name? >>> I thought I heard this before? Yea, I rated it a 4.4! Once again, y’all great fa a family!! My Current Rating: 4.4


09. “I Can Show You” Feat. Dae~Dae & Gutta Gucci
>>> LOL @ tha start! Feelin’ tha rhymes; you know what it iz on a speed like dis! Wonder what err-body else’ll sound like? ROFL, Dae~Dae soundin’ hella tight wit a joint like dis!! LOL, tight shit; “nice tits!” Gotta have “tits” mentioned in somethin’ like dis!! Gutta ain’t too bad on dis; prolly would’ve expected some faster rhymes… My Rating: 4.4


10. “Been ‘Bout Dat” Feat. Gutta Gucci
This looks familiar, too? >>> Nope, new fa me. This ain’t too bad; I like how dis sounds, overall… Gutta soundin’ pretty nice on tha 2nd verse; overall, a decent song. My Rating: 3.7


½time: A pretty-good CD from you; two jointz weren’t fa me, though. Added and averaged, this iz a 3.9-rated CD, currently.


11. “I Know You Want It” Feat. Smoove
>>> Not my kinda sound, here. Tha rappin’ iz decent/above average… My Rating: 2.7


12. “Spend It” Feat. Gutta Gucci & Dae~Dae
Ooh, anotha one… >>> You said, “Dino in tha buildin’;” he ain’t on tha feature? Tha hook’s pretty hot wit tha consistent, fast shit! Tha 2nd ½ of tha hook’s a lil’ gay, though; bad combo for somethin’ dat looks like it’ll turn out tight. You’re on tha 1st verse and it’s aight… Then again, wit tha lineup on tha song, it sounds betta… a lil’. SMH, Dae’s in tha wrong spot, again? Gutta’s 2nd on tha song, doin’ an okay job. Now, Dae on tha 3rd verse; I like what he’s got, here. Overall, this was pretty good… My Rating: 3.9


13. “Sex, Drugs, Lies” (Lil’ Swagg Feat. A.u.)
I don’t like dat name of tha artist so I dunno if I’ll like dis… >>> Only decent for a start. I didn’t have anything ta say about Swagg but you sound like you’re spittin’ some betta shit, here, wit a more-focused voice! My Rating: 3.4


14. “I’mma Show You” Feat. Gutta Gucci
>>> I like tha slow vibe, here. Tha rappin’ on tha verses iz good, like usual. My Rating: 4.0


15. “Don’t Leave Me”
>>> Sappy start. What was wit tha bullshit first minute? Tha beat sounds much betta wit you rappin’. Overall, nothin’ special for me. My Rating: 2.6


16. “Gully”
>>> Betta start, here. Tha flow’s a lil’ unanticipatin’, here, ‘cause I think tha Wayne/Drake flow gon come out or somethin’. Actually, I’m right; it sounds like it… Tha rhymes are somewhat-catchy, too… Overall, this iz decent. My Rating: 3.5


17. “Hard In Tha Paint”
>>> SMH. Gutta had a version and now, you, lol? I think his was betta; you still have tha same flow, here… My Rating: 3.3


18. “Laughin’ Atcha”
>>> Interestin’, but not 100% an original beat. Too bad dis sounds like dat stupid “A Milli”, smh. Your rappin’ ain’t too bad, either. My Rating: 3.7


19. “Party All Night”
>>> LOL, sounds just like “Party People” wit tha vibe. Sounds cool but I like “Party People” betta; at least these kinda songs are workin’ fa you in a way. My Rating: 3.8


20. “Where Tha Dick Go” Feat. Gutta Gucci
LOL @ dis title! >>> Sounds like tha beginning of Mystikal’s “Bouncin’ Back” beat repeatin’, which sounds good. This sounds betta than “Party All Night” and iz pretty catchy wit dis funny topic/title. Tha both of y’all are holdin’ it down, here. My Rating: 4.0


21. “Gettin’ Money” Feat. Gutta Gucci & BoRob
LOL, someone’s named “BoRob”, too? >>> Sounds like a strong ending-song. Not too bad wit tha rappin’ and I’m glad you built this song’s anticipation up wit how it sounds. Gutta sounds good wit dis shit but lol @ tha “money” obsession… Tha BoRob dude’s last? Sounds like you; where iz he, then? My Rating: 3.8


Overall: Even though it only averaged to be a 3.7-rated CD, I thought this was pretty good/consistent. I like what you do; keep it up!
