Review #963: B.G. "It's All On U Vol. 1"

Reviewed on 6.03.2011 (Review #963)




Comin’ up next, I have B.G. “It’s All On U Vol. 1”! This whole entire album iz produced by Mannie Fresh, too! Start Time: 6:21 PM | End Time: 6:51 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. “187 Big Tymers” Feat. Big Tymers
Must only be tha Big Tymers on dis one since it’s only 1:25; lemme hear what they got!! >>> LOL, “DJ Butcherknife Killa”? Interestin’ intro… Thought this would be a song but it’s just a lil’ intro, lol. My Rating: N/A


02. “Get Your Shine On” Feat. Big Tymers
LOL, a ‘96/’97 version vs. tha ’05 version? Let’s hear how dis one sounds! >>> “Hot Boy$” representin’, here! Tha vibe sounds good; I’m feelin’ how you’re deliverin’ rhymes in tha 1st verse… Maybe tha ’05 hook was catchier but this vibe iz much betta, overall! LOL @ Baby/Birdman/B-32 on tha 2nd verse; sounds like random rappin’—same kinda lyrical content as current, too, lol. LOL, Mannie Fresh gettin’ “head” on tha 3rd verse as well as deliverin’ consistent, catchy rhymes! You’re on tha 4th verse, here, and it sounds like you are gettin’ “your shine on,” lol. To keep tha long length comin’ along, Big Tymers are talkin’ on tha outro; thumbs up fa includin’… My Rating: 4.2


03. “N My City”
LOL @ tha lengths! >>> Some N.O. street-type shit, here; nice production from Mannie Fresh and good rhymes from you! Definitely feelin’ tha drug-related lyrics as well as breezin’ through tha hood, too! My Rating: 4.0


04. “Silent B.G.”
>>> Sounds like an interestin’ start wit tha spooky vocal sample in tha background; not gay like today’s samples! I like how dis iz anotha song fa tha hood in tha 504; you holdin’ it down—not “silent,” lol! I like how tha hook describes you as a “silent B.G.” and then, more B.G.’s, lol! My Rating: 3.9


05. “Round My Way” Feat. Juvenile
Ooh, Juvie on tha feature! >>> I like tha vibe here; this definitely fits tha Hot Boy$/Juvie background when it comes ta tha beat and tha flow! Good shit from you, here, Gizzle, on tha 1st verse! You even holdin’ down tha 2nd verse, too; thumbs up… LOL, Juvie appeared fa a quick second and showed you some luv; would’ve liked ta hear more from Juvie… My Rating: 3.9


06. “Uptown Thang (Remix Hot)”
“Remix Hot” meanin’ tha Hot Boy$ on dis? Wait a second, no features? I guess not… >>> Anotha joint wit tha Juvie vibe; definite plus wit tha hood-type shit you bringin’ to tha table, once again, lol. My Rating: 3.8


½time: Kinda tha same flow throughout most of tha CD but overall, you’re at 4.0 for tha CD rating; keep tha hot shit up!


07. “Ride 2night” Feat. Lil’ Wayne, Keisha, Turk & Bulletproof
Yes, a collaboration! >>> Likin’ tha consistent Lil’ Wayne beginning; nice verse!! LOL, sounds long? Okay, this next verse iz soundin’ pretty tight; iz this Turk? I didn’t hear Keisha, yet… Oh finally, afta ova three minutes, Keisha’s on tha hook and it sounds good fa tha gangstaz and gangstetts, lol! You’re on tha 3rd verse (or iz this tha 2nd verse since tha previous two verses were within one verse?); sounds good wit tha gangsta shit… I guess I couldn’t tell where Bulletproof was? After Wayne, it almost sounded like him, again… My Rating: 4.2


08. “I Be Thinking”
>>> Good intro… Consistent shit you spittin’, here; likin’ tha “herb” shit, ya dig? LOL, how addicted were you durin’ these times? I think you were extremely in luv, lol! Because you have tha same flow, for tha most part, I think some of these lengths could’ve been a lil’ shorter…; tha hook’s aight/I don’t have much ta say about it. Either way, thumbs up fa deliverin’ shit fa tha hood… fa tha 1,000,000th time, lol! My Rating: 3.7


09. “Cash Money Niggaz” Feat. Big Tymers, Turk & Bulletproof
Yes, a feature! >>> Almost didn’t like tha plain beat start but let’s see what’s gonna come outta dis… You’re on tha 1st verse and it’s pretty good, keepin’ your hood shit comin’ along… LOL @ tha gangsta vs. dancin’-type hook… Now, dis sounds like Turk on tha 2nd verse? Betta than you, here; good voice and consistent rhymes fa tha G’s! Tha 3rd verse sounds good; thumbs up fa all tha hood shit! My Rating: 4.1


10. “Fuck Theze Hoez”
Gotta luv tha “z”s, lol! >>> Beat’s a lil’ betta here; not sure if I can handle a 5+-minute song wit just you, though… Tha hook sounds a lil’ catchy; you got good shit, overall… My Rating: 3.8


11. “Let’s Get Funky” Feat. Lil’ Wayne
LOL, has 5:04 on tha length, ironically! >>> This ain’t too bad; tha vibe iz here, as always… I like how tha hook sounds; good combo between you and—I think, Wayne? I know dis iz Wayne on tha 2nd verse, soundin’ aight/good wit tha gangsta shit. Tha rest sounds pretty good but overall, this iz a lil’ too long, I believe. My Rating: 3.9


12. “Gangsta Shit”
>>> Much betta wit tha production although let’s see if dis 4:33 can survive wit me… Good rhymes and tha hook’s good, too; not bad/good, overall. My Rating: 4.1


13. “Retaliation (Remix)” Feat. Juvenile, Bun B & Ms. Tee
Interestin’ collaboration; I think tha 6:04 length’ll pull off… >>> Beat’s aight; tha Juvie start sounds good, lol! You’re on tha 2nd verse and you got some rhymes ta offer, here… Bun B’s on tha 3rd verse and damn, he’s pretty consistent, here! Gotta be tha best one on this joint, although I gotta see what Ms. Tee has ta offer! Tha hook sounds pretty nice, in a paranoid way, lol! Damn, was dat Ms. Tee on tha hook? Thought I was gonna hear a verse… My Rating: 4.0


Overall: Even though most of tha songs seemed long fa me, you at least put out a quality CD, here; will Vol. 2 be betta? It’s next in my marathon so I gon peep it out!
