Review #1,041: Benjamin Racks "First Impression (Sampler)"

Reviewed on 7.31.2011 (Review #1,041)

Keepin’ it goin’, my big dawg Benjamin Racks iz up next; how crazy’ll he be?! This iz my review for his “First Impression (Sampler)” CD, which iz only a lil’ sneak peak! However, I know he gon do tha damn thang wit dis one!! Start Time: 6:56 PM | End Time: 7:23 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.

Keepin’ shit goin’ wit… >>> Ooh, this iz somethin’ wit high energy!!

Thumbs up fa YaBoiBeezy comin’ through on this shit wit tha 1^st verse; he did tha damn thang!! Also, he doin’ this beat and now, this crazy-ass 2^nd verse I’m hearin’, thanx ta Aviator Committee Entertainment!!

My Rating: 4.7

04. “I Can’t Fuck Wit You”

Prolly tha whole CD has Beezy on tha beats, lol! >>> I like how this sounds; really feelin’ tha sing-sound delivery of tha title! Thumbs up fa tha hook, Benjamin Racks!! Thumbs up fa tha 1^st verse; really feelin’ how it sounds and how you hold this shit down! I couldn’t’ve penned a much-catchier hook; you really aimed perfect at it!! Tha 2^nd verse sounds good, too; I like how this iz only 2:43 ‘cause it’s a catchy, short song! My Rating: 4.8

½time: A 4.6-rated CD, currently; that’s tha Benjamin Racks way, Benjamin Racks!!!!!! Luv what you be comin’ up wit; just nothin’ but tha shit I have ta luv!! You have one of tha best perspectives in Baton Rouge, Benjamin Racks!!

05. “Get It On” Feat. Brandon

Wonder who this Brandon dude iz…; I’ve always had anticipation fa someone wit dat name on tha mic. And, wit Beezy doin’ tha beat again, you know this’ll be official!! >>> Oh, it’s a singer? I still like how this sounds wit this beat; will I be able ta handle it bein’ over two minutes longer than tha previous song? Tha 1^st verse sounds nice wit you on tha mic; such great shit you spittin’! LOL, when you said, “Frankie,” on tha 2^nd verse, I thought that was fa me but it was for a lady, Benjamin Racks! Either way, you know I’ll hear you say my name soon… Matta fact, you did a freestyle for my radio show… wit my name in it, so I’m satisfied! Good shit from you, once again, ya dig? Benjamin Racks! I hear Brandon comin’ through on tha 3^rd verse wit a lil’ bit of singin’; it flows pretty-good wit this… My Rating: 4.2

06. Intermission

Uh oh, an “intermission” that’s produced by YaBoiBeezy? Really? Benjaminrackstastictacularific, Benjamin Racks!! >>> Good talkin’, here; iz there gonna be rappin’? I can picture that you smell… lol, not like that; you prolly have a scent that stands out ta where people know it’s you, lol; Benjamin Racks!! Anyway, not a song or freestyle but it’s great ta hear you, Benjamin Racks!! My Rating: N/A

07. “Bar Drank”

I’m lookin’ forward ta dis wit Beezy on tha beat, again!! >>> Ooh, I like tha start!! Even though it sounds betta, it reminds me of tha dayz wit Dyl “Bars & Apple Fanta”, based off this title!! Real nice title, topic, beat, and how you be havin’ fun deliverin’ this shit!! Ooh, tha 1^st verse sounds like my boy Shell (Young Thugga) (mainly dat “Take A Puff”); definitely a plus, here, Racks!! Such a great song!! I can only imagine what date and time it was when you first started gettin’ inta these “bars,” lol, Benjamin Racks?! Such a huge anthem, here!! Tha 2^nd verse goes as hard as tha 1^st verse; all verses are equally great when it comes ta songs like dis, ya dig? Tha 3^rd verse sounds pretty nice, of course, Benjamin Racks!! ROFL @ all tha “___ tha fuck” shit; catchy shit, of course, from you, Racks, Benjamin Racks!! Damn, 47 seconds of silence at tha end; what tha hell? Very Benjaminracksless, Benjamin Racks! My Rating: 4.8

08. “Nasty”

I rememba this (1^st song I heard from you); played this on my radio show and now, let’s see what I gon say when I review it, thanx ta Beezy on tha beat, once again!! … Hearin’ it and, of course, tha “nasty” and flow iz crazy!! I remember when you told me about this song, I pictured you bein’ one of tha next biggest rappers! However, I neva knew when you were gonna drop CDs and now, Benjaminracksful!! Good shit wit tha continuous, catchy, infectious rhymin’ flow; it’s bananas!!! I was almost like, “damn, does this guy take a breath wit this shit,” Benjamin Racks?! It’s crazy!!! Now, I associate tha word “benjamin” wit you, lol; Benjamin Racks!! All tha verses go hard… without needin’ ta take a breath, lol; Benjamin Racks!! Just like tha previous song, every verse iz meant ta be!! Your face on tha previous CD cover has to be one of tha most addictive seen covers of 2011! Shid, it might be nominated on my 2011 awards, lol; Benjamin Racks!! My Current Rating: 4.9
