Review #990: Hot Boy$ "Get It How U Live!!"

Reviewed on 6.09.2011 (Review #990)


My 6th review for today iz Hot Boy$—ooh, their debut album—Get It How U Live!!; shout out ta Turk, Juvenile, B.G. & Lil’ Wayne! Start Time: 8:34 PM | End Time: 9:00 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. “Intro” (Big Tymers)
What do they gotta say? >>> Beat’s definitely on ‘n’ poppin’, here! Shout out ta Mannie Fresh doin’ tha damn thang, here, on tha 1st verse! LOL, Baby’s soundin’ aight but some of tha cocky shit he spittin’ iz tight, especially tha shit ‘bout “Girbauds!” My Rating: 4.3


02. “We On Fire”
Shit yea; let’s hear it! >>> Damn, gotta luv tha beat start!! Definitely tha shit, here!! Really feelin’ how tha three of y’all doin’ a nice job in tha beginning (no B.G.?); great 3x-combo!!! Lots of shit ta spit here wit “what kinda nigga…;” it’s all about “tha Hot Boy$!!” It may sound repetitive ta hear tha catchiness but tha beat and content iz what’s up! My Rating: 4.4


03. “50 Shots Sets It Off”
>>> Sounds like anotha hot beat; y’all definitely had shit poppin’ back in tha day! LOL, here’s B.G., comin’ through wit some good rhymes fa tha streetz! LOL, switched ta Wayne, doin’ his thang wit tha young, street life, lol! “’Bauds fall half way;” it sux how he ain’t wearin’ ‘em now!!!!! WTF? Why no ‘Bauds, Wayne? I guess it’s a good thing ‘cause you might get these wankstaz wearin’ ‘em and shit! Tha hook sounds good, here; watch out fa dem “50 shots,” lol! Tha 2nd verse iz an alert fa those dat gotta watch out, once again! LOL, gotta have Juvie on tha 3rd verse, comin’ through wit catchy punchlines fa tha streetz! My Rating: 4.3


04. On Tha Porch, Pt. 1
Ooh, this looks like a skit! >>> Sounds gangsta wit tha gunshots… I hope ta neva hear gunshots in real life, ya dig? I like tha dialect wit tha “bruh” and shit; good skit! My Rating: N/A


05. “Block Burner”
That’s what y’all are! >>> Beat’s definitely hot, here; good shit goin’ on!! Really luvin’ this state of mind to tha fullest!! It sounds like ’97 was tha takeova fa Louisiana, especially afta “Make ‘Em Say Ugh!”, lol! Rhymes sound cool wit Wayne, here… I like how tha hook’s soundin’; really ownin’ tha “block,” here, in full mode!! Mostly, it’s Wayne, here, but he keepin’ tha rhymes catchy wit this beat! My Rating: 4.3


06. “Neighborhood Superstar” Feat. Big Tymers
Y’all also this title, too, lol! >>> Startin’ off wit a good Juvie start ova an aight beat… Not bad fa his shit; tha hook sounds like it’s somethin’ catchy… LOL, sounds like Baby’s holdin’ it down betta on tha 2nd verse, spendin’ buku money, lol.

08. “Dirty World”
>>> Sounds like a sad theme fa Wayne, here. LOL, tha virgin-soundin’ Wayne wit “I don’t curse,” lol; that was me from ’04 – ’05, actually. All tha members of tha Hot Boy$ are on here and err-body’s comin’ good wit decent rhymes fa tha streetz; this iz an okay song fa me, overall. Tha other songs on this CD had better deliveries and sounds, for me… My Rating: 3.8


09. “I’m A Hot Boy”
Fa sho. >>> Sounds like an interestin’ beat start… B.G.’s doin’ an okay job wit this rappin’ fa tha streetz… Juvie’s on tha hook and it sounds a lil’ catchier… A lil’ boring wit not havin’ many members on this song but it ain’t that bad… My Rating: 3.7


10. “Get It How U Live!!”
Title track, here; let’s see what’s good wit it! >>> Sounds like a catchy beat start… Tha 1st verse has some good shit fa tha gangstas; gotta stay focused and “ready,” ya dig?

Yes, anotha skit! >>> Sounds like it could be funny, in y’all mind, lol. My Rating: N/A


12. “I’m Com’n” Feat. Bun B
Should be a good collab, here! >>> Sounds catchy although it might turn out a lil’ long, I bet… Rhymes are soundin’ catchy from Gizzle, here, on tha 1st verse… Tha hook sounds catchy wit this future of “com’n” ta take ova tha future; good shit! Ooh, Wayne’s on tha 2nd verse and it’s soundin’ good wit how he comin’ through wit consistent rhymes! LOL, thought it was Juvie on tha 3rd verse but it’s Bun B, doin’ tha damn thang wit tha consistency of rappin’ and bringin’ tight shit ta tha table! Good shit from Turk on tha 4th verse (or iz this tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse?); mo consistency fa my ears!

14. “Blood Thicker” Feat. Big Tymers
Looks like a tight title. >>> Sounds like mo consistent rhymes from Turk, once again! LOL, Baby just keeps goin’, doin’ his thang! LOL, Juvie’s catchy wit how he comes through on tha mic; nice job wit tha flow! It sounds like anotha feature toward tha end? Not 100% sure but good shit… Even a female? Or, iz that a younger kid? Why no source? Just says dat tha Big Tymers are featured. My Rating: 4.2


15. “Spit N Game”
How we gon end dis? >>> Dis fa da gangstaz; good shit wit this gangsta content!
