Review #949: LG "Cinco"

Reviewed on 5.24.2011 (Review #949)




Got my 1st review for today—lol that it’s late: LG “Cinco”; shout out ta Da Goonz! This CD’s on their website! Start Time: 10:17 PM | End Time: 10:37 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. Shorty Do Whop
>>> Nas start? Afta tha Nas start, I like tha lil’ intro part; sounds like people in a regular, quiet hood, lol. This iz kinda long; I thought this was a song, lol. My Rating: N/A


02. “Untitled”
>>> Beat’s a lil’ plain/East Coast for me but your rhymes are nice. My Rating: 3.8


03. “Venting”
>>> Tha beat start sounded a lil’ weak for me but now, once tha rhymes came in, tha beat’s soundin’ like a decent undaground-soundin’ one. Wit your rhymes, they’re consistent, once again. However, I thought I’d hear more of an attitude on your delivery since you called this “Venting”. My Rating: 3.9


04. “Exhale”
>>> Tha beat iz aight, this time; still feelin’ your rhymes… My Rating: 3.7


05. “Blow Your Smoke” Feat. Dinero (of Da Goonz)
Ooh, a Goon collab wit a “Smoke” title? Have I heard dis? >>> Ooh, a new song; thumbs up fa tha collab and my big dawg Bonka fa followin’ me! Tha beat’s nice and smooth fa dis content; tha hook sounds good—can’t deny anything wit “smoke” in it, ya dig? You doin’ a nice job wit tha 1st verse; tha rhymes are consistent and fit good fa dis, once again. Yay, Dinero on tha 2nd verse; gotta feel tha “goonout” shit! When Bonka/whoeva said, “goonout,” ta me, I thought dat was hella cool. Ooh, addin’ some “show me ya titties” shit; thumbs up! Also, a lil’ bit of Lil’ Kim “Lighters Up” for a bridge? Actually, it sounds catchy—in a “smoke” way, lol! You’re back on tha mic, here, comin’ through wit some good rhymes, although in a Drake/Wayne flow… My Rating: 4.3


½time: Hangin’ on wit a decent level wit tha ratings. However, for tha CD rating standin’ at a 3.9, this sounds more like a pretty good-soundin’ CD, ya dig?


06. “What They Do”
>>> Anticipatin’ beat start, for some reason… Startin’ off wit tha hook and it sounds catchy wit tha melody and title! Ooh, a hustle-type song vs. lovin’ rappin’! Props on havin’ a betta-than-usual-soundin’ song, once again! My Rating: 4.2


07. “Kool & The Gang” Feat. Bonka (of Da Goonz)
OMG, Bonka on tha feature!!! Damn, this should be pretty tight, in any situation!! >>> Fade-out after 15 seconds, lol? Wonder what gon happen… Sounds like a dinner at a restaurant wit tha music, lol. Damn, long beat intro? Finally, at :53, here you are on tha 1st verse, soundin’ good! Wow, consistent rhymes; can’t deny it! Really lookin’ forward to my big dawg Bonka!! Ooh, I like how there’s no hook; adds a different spice to tha table, ya dig? *Gets impatient* Bonka!!! Where are you?!? Ooh, here he iz on tha 2nd verse? Shit yea!! I’m feelin’ all tha rhymes; lol, what’s next? “I give ‘em hard dick;” sounds like freestylin’. Once again, nice job, you guys. I was a lil’ iffy about puttin’ it above tha “Smoke” song but this iz easily better. My Rating: 4.4


08. “Love”
>>> This iz kinda mainstream for me; nothin’ too special… My Rating: 3.1


09. “Abu Dabi”
Looks like an interestin’ title; I can fuck wit non-U.S.-type shit! >>> Tha beat’s aight, here; rhymes sound cool… Tha hook sounds interestin’ wit this random title, as well as your “ship it out…” shit. My Rating: 3.6


10. “Dope. Cypher” (IL Duce, Gage, Luke St. John, A.R., 2feet, LG & Ronny My)
LOL, bonus? That’s what’s up; longest song I eva played on my radio show, lol! Previously reviewed on Ronny My’s “The Other Blues Brotha” CD, here’s what I said: Damn, 9:40!! IL Duce iz startin’ dis off and it’s A+ at its finest!!! I feel dat this easily gon be tha best one on here!! I believe this iz tha same Gage I knew from a DatPiff CD I checked out, known as Young Gage? Sounds good; very consistent!! BTW, this iz a 1st: since when iz there a period in tha title? Thumbs up on tha different shit ta make it seem lucky. Next up, Luke St. John, doin’ a real nice job, too! So much shit you could quote and enjoy here!! Let’s hear what Mr. Problem Child Entertainment dude A.R. has ta offer… Likin’ what he bringin’, too! You know I fuck wit him, ya dig? A.R., what up? You know what it iz! 2feet, a.k.a. Two Feet, iz up next; didn’t realize they were tha same people. Wit what 2feet’s offerin’, it sounds like some good, non-Louisiana-type shit (yea, I know he from Louisiana); good shit! LG’s next, keepin’ it goin’, here! There’s over four minutes left, lol! Iz it gonna be a long outro at tha end or somethin’? Here’s Ronny My, almost soundin’ like an outro at first, lol. Pretty catchy; nothin’ beats tha 1st three dudes, though! LOL, good ending ta his verse as there’s a lil’ less than two minutes left. Tha beat outro’s kinda long fa an ending but whateva… My Current Rating: 4.8


Overall: I thought this was ½ pretty good and ½ decent, which averages out ta about a good CD!
