Startin’ off today, I’ve got Young Gregory Hostile Takeova! ‘Bout time this came out, courtesy of Macked Out Music, of course! Start Time: 10:30 AM | End Time: 11:31 AM
Disclaimer: 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 already love it. 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. Big Cheese (Da Outlaw) Drop
Gotta hear it! >>> Good energy; you know what it iz! Great job wit tha definition! My Rating: N/A
02. “Otha Shit”
Let’s start it off wit… >>> A Supa intro? Thought he was gonna be featured but sounds good wit this classic-soundin’ beat! Tha hook sounds pretty nice, too; great job wit tha Greg life, Greg, lol! Nice job wit what you’re bringin’ to tha 1st verse; nothin’ but dat tight “shit” fa tha streetz at all times! Tha 2nd verse sounds great, too; gotta feel tha energy you’re bringin’ to tha voice and rhymes!! Almost sounds like tha Beezy Bird “bow” in tha background, but it sounds like an “ow,” lol. Uh oh, “BiPolar” Greg on tha 3rd verse! Great job… Also, nice job wit Supa on tha outro, too! ROFL @ tha cold-ass ending!
My Rating: 4.403. “No Game Show” Feat. Jab & Piz Corleone
Let’s hear what’s goin’ on wit this anti-“game show”, lol! >>> Ooh, really likin’ tha beat, here; reminds me of tha old-soundin’ Down Bad shit!! Really likin’ tha shit goin’ on wit tha 1st verse, Greg; great way of bein’ “married” to “[your] pistol!” Ooh, “game show”s are in tha 1st ½ of tha hook and really, “it ain’t a game” ta describe tha 2nd ½ of tha hook; definitely catchy as fuck, here!! Tha 2nd verse iz soundin’ off to a great start wit Jab on it! I like all tha “dawg” parts; definitely holdin’ it down, Jab! Piz sounds pretty good on tha 3rd verse; definitely feelin’ tha vibe, here, wit all this hyped-upness! Ooh, 1:47 left? Long outro comin’ up? Outro starts at 1:25; let’s see what’s goin’ on… Just hearin’ tha beat, currently… Nice job wit this beat outro! I could talk on this durin’ my radio show! My Rating: 4.8
04. “In My Own Zone”
Whoo!! You already know how I feel about this E.P.-produced track! Go, Greg! Go, Greg! Go, Greg! My Current Rating: 4.6
05. “Tap Out” Feat. Nip Cannon & Mel 985
Let’s see what’s good wit dis! >>> Sounds like a good, neutral-speed club song; nice hook. Good job wit tha first—or should I say, ffffffiiiiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrrsssssssstttttt verse, drunk style, lol. Tha 2nd verse iz soundin’ like it’s off to a good start wit Nip on it; “somebody catch [him],” lol. I like how this 3rd verse iz soundin’ (Mel?); good “rollin’” and all dat shit, lol! Tha hook almost sounds like Piz Corleone! Oh wait, Mel’s on tha 4th verse; thumbs up ta Nip (I guess?) on tha 3rd verse, though! I like tha family vibe, here; lol @ all tha drinks. I saw a flyer for somethin’ recently and it said $50 for a bottle of somethin’; kinda WTF for me? My Rating: 4.4
06. “Macked Out Party” Feat. Supa
Just you? >>> LOL @ tha beginning wit Supa; sounds like somethin’ anticipatin’, includin’ this King Arthur beat/sounds! Almost thought it was a familiar song but it iz featurin’ Supa on tha hook, here! LOL @ tha no source? Feelin’ what you bringin’ on tha 1st verse, Greg; thumbs up fa your energy, once again! Definitely a great anthem fa tha “Macked Out” Music clique! LOL @ you on tha 2nd verse: “Is You Wet Yet Wednesdays;” really? Damn, this breezed by pretty quick; nice energy and what you contributed, here!! My Rating: 4.6
07. “Seek & Destroy” Feat. Johnny Hustle
Looks pretty serious! >>> Likin’ tha intro; thought it was gonna be an R&B joint, lol. Pure hook; really feelin’ tha lyrics in tha hook!! Definitely a title like this goes a long way, ya dig? Also, feelin’ your seriousness on tha 1st verse, too! Ooh, “for them brick throwaz” on tha 2nd verse; definitely feelin’ everything you bringin’, he—“out tha window,” lol! J-Hustle’s spittin’ some pretty catchy shit on tha 3rd verse; thumbs up fa tha consistency in tha flow, too! My Rating: 4.6
08. “Problem Child”
What do we got, here? >>> Ooh, a King Arthur beat dat sounds like tha Early 2000s, a lil’! Gangsta lyrics comin’ from you, here; definitely feelin’ ‘em, of course! LOL @ tha “pull yo pants up” and “why you smokin’ cigarettes” part; I can’t picture y’all “smokin’ cigarettes” ‘cause basically, it’s weed! “Cigarettes” seem gay/typical; can’t stand my mom buyin’ a pack every day or two!
Tha hook sounds pretty nice; good shit you bringin’, too! All these problems can come into play nicely, thanx ta this song! My Rating: 4.409. “Bird Call” Feat. Pounds
LOL, this made it! Thought it was one of tha most-surprising-soundin’ collaborations, but then again, y’all are cousinz, lol. As reviewed on Pounds’s two mixtapes, this iz definitely nice, overall, wit a great beat and great contributions from tha both of y’all! My Current Rating: 4.4
½time: Currently, this iz a pretty serious CD, Greg!! Definitely glad you finally put it out, ya dig?! You’re standin’ at 4.5 for tha CD rating, wit a possible chance at five stars!!!!!
10. “Gimme Wut I Want” Feat. Jab & Supa
Lookin’ forward ta dis! LOL, Supa finally sourced? >>> Likin’ this; catchy hook, of course! You can’t resist somethin’ like this ‘cause it’s tha shiiiit, lol! Sounds like you afta tha sex on tha 1st verse; good shit, especially wit how you keep your voice rollin’ and rollin’ and rollin’ and rollin’ and rollin’ and rollin’ wit consistency and entertainment, ya dig? Jab on dat hook; very catchy wit tha voice and how he keeps sayin’ tha title!! LOL, Supa on tha 2nd verse, wit a lil’ bit of Juvenile in tha flow; definitely feelin’ everything goin’ on here, since it’s fulla catchiness!! Not too bad wit Jab on tha 3rd verse, here; tha rhymes I mainly like are tha “Macked Out”-type/referred rhymes. My Rating: 4.5
11. “Bless My Enemies” Feat. Mel 985 & Piz Corleone
This looks like somethin’ cool… >>> Actually, real cool wit tha beat start!! Do I hear some Mel in tha beginning wit tha title? Damn, this iz gonna be somethin’ catchy! Here you are on tha 1st verse, comin’ through wit some real rhymes dat go great wit this kinda beat, ya dig? Tha way Mel says, “that’s my enemies,” sounds like some song in tha past wit tha voice? Must be a great rendition goin’ on, here! Speakin’ of Mel, here he iz on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit some catchy, real-type rhymes! “It’s like, some mouse in tha house … tryna kill it;” exactly what my mom has been doin’ tha past few dayz, lol! ROFL, really cold ending? I guess that’s Piz on tha hook? LOL, I’m confused, now! My Rating: 4.5
12. “I Need Dat” Feat. Supa
Let’s hear dis! >>> Ooh, hot beat start; definitely luvin’ what y’all bringin’ to tha table wit these tracks!!! Tha hook sounds pretty catchy; definitely luvin’ what you bringin’, here, wit all these kinds of money-related things, lol! Also, I’m on #12 and I didn’t even hear a reference ta “So Whopped”, currently; lol, I remember hearin’ it in, like, every song in tha past! LOL @ what you bringin’ to tha 2nd verse; demandin’ at its finest!! Hope I get ta see some $ from you, soon, when it comes ta doin’ some videos and shit! LOL @ tha start ta tha 3rd verse wit Supa… Hope I can get a few $$$ before all this “head” and “pussy;” that’s a bet! ROFL, anotha cold-ass ending! My Rating: 4.5
13. “Money My Motivator” Feat. Jab & Mel 985
LOL, sequel? >>> Nice dialect in tha beginning… Nice job wit tha beat, of course; like my tracks A+! Also, this iz a good “money” song, unlike most bullshit songs out there. Tha 2nd verse iz pretty good, too; was wondering how long this was wit tha two verses from you, but there’s room… Here’s tha 3rd verse (Jab?), comin’ through wit some good shit… Maybe this iz Jab on tha 4th verse? I’m only goin’ by tha order… Not too crazy about what’s goin’ on wit this verse… ROFL, cold-ass ending, again! My Rating: 4.2
14. “Grind, Hustle” Feat. J-Von & Drako
Looks like somethin’ gon jump off wit this one! >>> Definitely a good vibe; I feel like it’s tha good times of Louisiana (from 2008 and before)! J-Von on tha 1st verse? Comin’ through wit some tightness, here! Ooh, beat sounds are at their finest at 1:02!! Here you are on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit good shit, too, “hustle” at full time!

15. “I’m On” Feat. Nip & Mel 985
Let’s see what we got… >>> Smooth start wit kick-ass beat sounds, once again! Nice job wit tha 1st verse; not bad… Tha hook sounds pretty catchy, too; must be Nip, here? I hear tha Mel 985 voice on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit… club shit? Here you are on tha 3rd verse, comin’ through wit some shit fa tha “hoes,” here, lol. LOL, just ended like it was nothin’! My Rating: 4.3
16. “Bringin’ My Roll Down” Feat. Johnny Hustle & Cage (Down Bad)
LOL, was a radio exclusive for a while (as a DNA track). Now, lemme finally review it! >>> Always luved tha kick-ass beat goin’ on, here; very serious!! Also, you on tha hook iz a monster, too!! You’re really kickin’ ass on tha 1st verse! “Like Mario wit his mushroom, power up!”
Good shit from Hustle on tha 2nd verse; he got a focused mentality when it comes ta any in-person-type shit, ya dig? Hope I meet everyone soon! Just findin’ a male figure ta go wit ‘cause most males where I’m at suck fuckin’ ass!!! Here’s Cage wit his entertainin’-ass on tha 3rd verse; definitely tha shit you’d wanna hear wit his words!! They keep goin’ and goin’ and goin’ and goin’ and goin’ and goin’ and goin’ and goin’ and goin’ and goin’, lol!! Quick ending, here, lol. My Current Rating: 4.717. “So Stupid” Feat. Drako, Big World & Supa
“More”?
>>> What tha hell was that beat tag in tha beginning and why was it longer than two seconds/a couple sentences? Thought this was gonna be tha just “Stupid” as tha title song, but it’s a new song! Tha beat sounds pretty serious, here; definitely feelin’ it! Hook’s nice, as well as what’s goin’ on wit this 1st verse (must be Drako ‘cause I can’t believe of “More” bein’ anyone, smh)! Keep this catchy shit up, ya dig? Well, Supa’s on tha hook; why no room? LOL, “Bringin’ My Roll Down” had a much-bigger ID… This iz you on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit tha intoxicated-type verse, lol! LOL, here’s Big World on tha 3rd verse, comin’ through “stoned” as a ma’fucka, lol? Gotta luv it! He’s someone I’m dyin’ ta meet, ya dig? Neva really kicked it—seriously—wit dread-heads dat are huge, lol! Here’s tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse: Supa, comin’ through wit his “M.O.M.”-type shit, as always! Well, I guess tha correct ID iz “Feat. Drako, Big World & Supa” instead of “& More” (yea, like that was hard, smh)! ROFL @ tha ending wit, “free Boosie;” random, Supa, lol! My Rating: 4.518. “So Whopped” Feat. Supa & Jack (Down Bad)
LOL? My Current Rating: 4.3
19. “Thuggin’ Is Da Life” Feat. T.C.
What this gon be like for an ending song? >>> Dunno why, but it gives me a Young Bleed/Frieze Off Da Curb CD feel wit this vibe! Thumbs up ta dat T.C. dude on tha hook! Really feelin’ his—oh, iz that you, lol? This must be from tha Early 2000s or somethin’ ‘cause it sounds so old? Interestin’, though, especially wit what this song iz, overall! Or, iz this T.C. on tha 2nd verse? Neva mind, I think this him on tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse? LOL @ my confusion! But, you know this shit’s pretty nice, old style! My Rating: 4.4
Overall: A+, Greg; you know what it iz!! You always come through wit tha consistency and type of shit dat’s pure!! Actually, tha whole Macked Out Music clique seems ta be like dat, too! Gotta give y’all big shout outs, ya feel me? Keep up tha great, consistent work!!
