This next review, which iz Gar & B.G. Loyalty Is Royalty (Hosted by DJ 5150 & DJ Hektik), iz not CD eligible? Why iz it 1:53:02? Guess it sold 0 copies in tha streetz, smh?! But, Billionaire Mafia Entertainment/Chopper City Records in tha buildin’ wit this one! Start Time: 8:36 AM End Time: 9:15 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. Intro / “G.A.”
>>> Good intro; that’s DJ 5150 (tha 2nd dude’s voice), lol? Now, let’s see tha song… Sounds like a soft, Lloyd song? I thought this was a hard mixtape, not a soft one? Nothin’ really to comment; too soft! My Rating: 2.8
02. “Chopper City”
>>> Sounds real tight wit tha beat and tha hook! Rhymes are hella consistent wit Gar, here!! No B.G., lol? Guess it worked out real good for just Gar ‘cause tha 2nd verse was really on-n-poppin’, too!! My Rating: 4.6
03. “U Can Bleed Too” Feat. Skip & C-Murder
>>> Nice shit from Skip in tha 1st verse; why iz he last in tha ID? Good shit from C-Murder, at its finest, “too”!! Gar’s holdin’ shit down on tha 3rd verse, almost soundin’ like Max Minelli, here, which sounds tight, once again!! My Rating: 4.5
04. “Face Up”
>>> Ooh, an X-Fyle beat! Finally, some B.G., comin’ through wit some good, 31-year-old-type street shit, here! Good job wit havin’ Gar on this, too! Gotta luv tha collaboration he has wit Shell (Young Thugga) “Face Shots”! My Rating: 4.3
05. “Same Ol’ Shit” Feat. VL Mike
>>> Thought it was gonna be tha Magnolia Boyz joint fa a second, lol. Sounds like a soft song wit tha beginning, but I hear tha beat kickin’ in, once B.G. starts tha 1st verse… Good shit from him, still, and Gar has a nice 2nd verse… Damn, this iz 5:15? Way too long… B.G. has a much-betta 3rd verse goin’ on—oh wait, that’s Gar, lol; my bad for tha confusion, but it sounds hella tight wit tha fastness!! Wait a second, fuckin’ unsourced people? Who tha fuck are they?! LOL, tha only one I know iz VL Mike on tha last verse; lol, how random, but tight! My Rating: 4.0
06. “Gutta Gutta”
>>> Sounds like it gon be a good weed anthem? Yea, sounds good wit B.G. on tha 1st verse; consistent rhymin’ goin’ on… Tha hook says it all: “gutta as a muthafucka;” right! Good shit, somewhat, from Gar on tha 2nd verse, here… Nice and smooth lil’ 3rd verse from B.G., here; keep tha rhymes goin’!! My Rating: 4.2
07. “So 504”
Ain’t dat so?! >>> Really likin’ tha anthemic beat, as well as tha hook! Good shit from B.G. on tha 1st verse, representin’ at all times! “I got money now;” huh?
You’ve been in tha game for almost two decades, Gizzle! What, nothin’ back then? Glad ta hear Gar on tha 2nd verse; you know what it iz wit dis! Glad ta hear some shit dat originated in tha streetz! My Rating: 4.508. “My Hood” Feat. Mannie Fresh
Hella old!!! Hate ’09!! No need to bring it back; I’m no longer a giving-idiot! My Current Rating: 3.8
09. “Walk With Me”
>>> Sounds decent, and almost reminds me of bein’ old, like tha last joint. B.G. sounds decent on tha 1st verse; lol @ tha gangsta lyrics… I like tha hook; sounds catchy for a mainstream song, even though I might’ve heard this before? All B.G. verses, here; okay, overall… My Rating: 3.8
10. “Choppers, 9’s & 40’s”
>>> Oh no, not jacked beats, especially from tha turned-into-gayland 2010! Whether I heard it or not, sounds consistent. My Rating: 4.0
11. “All Eyes On Me”
>>> “K.I. Dub on tha track”? Iz that K.I. Double? Interestin’ beat, though; definitely feelin’ it! Good job from B.G., as he comes through wit tha consistent rhymes! Good job from Gar, too; can’t deny tha 2nd verse! LOL, gotta end it wit Gizzle, comin’ through as tha “neighborhood supastar!” My Rating: 4.4
12. “I C U Ridin’ Homie”
No, it’s “ridin’”, not “riden”; smh @ people wit their “en” thinkin’ of words!
>>> Okay wit tha Jeezy sample; not sure how people songs wit samples are, these dayz; kinda a fad? Beat’s pretty hot, includin’ how B.G. holds it down on tha 1st verse, wit his consistentness. Of course, gotta have Gar on tha 2nd verse; “black” everythang, lol? LOL! My Rating: 4.213. “Slippin’” Feat. Bonka
Bonka of Da Goonz on tha feature!!! Whoo!!! He freestyled on my latest mixtape, as well as doin’ a separate freestyle on my “ScrEEchin’ Crawfish” segment of my “Tha Louisiana Pit” undaground radio show! Definitely lookin’ forward ta dis!! >>> Really likin’ tha beat, as it has some foreign country/Egyptian-type sounds goin’ on!!
Whoa, there’s a bunch of hot sounds goin’ on, here!! Tha hook’s pretty nice; thumbs up fa creatin’ some shit like dis!! Definitely not “slippin’” when it comes ta deliverin’ nothin’ but tha best!! Gar does a nice job wit tha great hook, and B.G. does a great job deliverin’ tha 1st verse, in an anti-“slippin’” perspective! Hearin’ Gar rap on tha 2nd verse, and it’s good… good. LOL, Bonka was high as fuck when he freestyled for me, so I can only imagine how many blunts he had when he knew he was gonna collaborate wit y’all, lol! Sounds like some serious shit he spittin’ on tha 3rd verse; gotta luv his voice, and I’m glad he came through wit his tightness!! My Rating: 4.714. “Colder”
Not “softer”, I hope. >>> Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaatttttttttt iiiiiiiizzzzzzzzzzzz thhiiiiiiiiissssss Drake beat?!
Makin’ feedback quick… Sounds good/aight, but why this beat? I could’ve sworn I was listenin’ to undaground music! My Rating: 3.3½time: A 4.1-rated CD; real nice job, here, wit dis shit! Was surprised ta hear Bonka; definitely gave this some excitement, and y’all got some nice collaborations, here!
15. “The Real Is Back” Feat. Benzino
Benzino, tha white dude that had a song in 2002, a while ago? Or, am I trippin’, and forgot that Benzino was on a few mixtapes, previously? >>> Sounds good; nothin’ much ta say, here, except tha really hot beat in tha hook. My Rating: 4.1
16. “Lose My Mind”
>>> Sounds famil—no, not anotha jacked beat! A lil’ catchy for a remake, but whateva; it’s betta than tha “Colder” one! My Rating: 3.7
17. “’Bout That”
>>> Sounds like a song I heard before, but you already know, this iz tight, too, especially this continuous, “I’m ‘bout that” hook! My Rating: 4.3
18. “U See Why”
>>> A lil’ soft, even though it has a street vibe to it wit tha lyrics…; what’s up wit tha long-ass lengths? My Rating: 3.5
19. “Set It Off”
>>> LOL, jacked beat but it’s okay for a remake… My Rating: 3.6
20. “’Bout This Grindin’”
Nooooo, not these gay-ass ’09 dayz, again!! I’ll admit, I did a bunch of ‘free’, faggy things in that year! I’m glad I learned betta!! My Current Rating: 4.5
21. “Make It Official”
>>> Beat’s nothin’ special, but tha rhymes are pretty good… My Rating: 3.6
22. “Batt’em Up” Feat. Red
LOL, tha feature’s listed, this time? >>> A lil’ long for a mixtape, but whateva… Okay wit tha good rhymes, although tha hook seems to make tha highlight, as I hear a lil’ bit of G-Funk goin’ on, in tha beat! Nice job wit tha collaboration; keep this shit up! My Rating: 4.2
23. “Don’t Wanna Be Without You” Feat. Real
Somebody’s named “Real”, smh? Prolly could’ve had a different name? Also, “without”, not “with out”, smh. >>> Sounds like a jam; this one’s too long, too… This sounds like an old school vibe, which sounds good; likin’ these soundin’-like late ‘90s, early ‘00s rhymes, even though tha joint’s only decent, overall, for me. My Rating: 3.9
24. “Stalkin’”
LOL. >>> Anotha good vibe like tha previous song, includin’ a melody! LOL, smh @ tha people that try ta “stalk” me; glad I don’t have ta be there fa everyone! Good job wit tha consistent verses; anti-“stalkin’” point of view, here! My Rating: 4.3
25. “Bust A Move”
>>> A smooth vibe, here, that’s not soft, but good…; nice shit, here, Gizzle. Tha hook’s pretty smooth, here; likin’ what Gar’s bringin’ to tha table, too. LOL @ all this “suck dat dick” shit; you really goin’ at ‘em, in a tauntin’ way, Gizzle! My Rating: 4.1
26. “Whateva U Like”
>>> Some mainstream sound, here; think it sounds good, almost like a follow-up single. Mysterious female singin’ on tha hook? Nice triple combo, though! Gizzle strippin’ down ta please tha ladies, here, lol. My Rating: 3.8
27. “Keep It Real” Feat. Alfamega
An ATL collaboration here, P$C style… >>> Gotta luv tha “wuzzam” intro!! Gizzle, you a classic fool fa dat!! Feelin’ tha hook; has a lil’ bit of a T.I. “Big Things Poppin’” feel to it (I assume Mannie Fresh produced this?), even though I shouldn’t be bringin’ up those gay-ass ’07 times! Sounds like this joint would have good memories or somethin’, in tha future, just like every single song I heard in 2008?! Gar did a nice job on tha 2nd verse, here; feelin’ how he comes through fa tha streetz wit his hidden energy! Alfamega sounds hella tight on tha 3rd verse, bringin’ back some great-soundin’ ATL shit! Good job wit this collaboration; really luvin’ tha consistency goin’ on, here!! My Rating: 4.6
28. “50 Rules”
>>> Almost reminds me of Max Minelli in tha beginning; how Gartastic, if you say so, lol! More “G.A.” reppin’ goin’ on? How ‘bout, “504, 504, 504, 504, 504, 504…,” instead? Beat’s definitely jammin’, here; nice job wit comin’ through wit this shit, courtesy of Gar takin’ this joint ova, in tha beginning! No need fa Gizzle, here; it’s all about Gar!! Glad he holdin’ tha whole joint down! My Rating: 4.3
29. “Gunz N Roses (Free B.G.)”
LOL, interestin’ title ta end this mixtape… >>> Sounds like an identity crisis wit tha production, here, but it’s still pretty good. Once again, Gar holdin’ this whole joint down, doin’ a nice job wit tha streetz, here, and his hidden voice, lol! My Rating: 4.2
Overall: Even though way too long of a mixtape, this was definitely tight shit! No skits, just music, lol! Good job, guys; my dude P.I.R. told me B.G. might get 40 years (be 71 years-old by tha time he gets outta jail)?

The 80% of this songs are old... I cant believe you dont know who are the features in track #5; They are the Chopper City Boyz!!!; B.G., Hakim, Gar, Snipe & VL Mike (2005).
ReplyDeleteAnd they guy "Real" from track #23 is the former member pf Young Money Ent. You can find lot of features in Lil Wayne albums and mixtapes from this period of time (2003-2005).
Sorry, got WAY too much goin' on on my plate, at tha moment, for me to be able to know what's what. I had lost my cousin 12 dayz after when I reviewed this, as well as finishing non-stop projects, still in tha making. As far as albums from '03 - '05, I'm only at '97 wit reviewin' old CDs.
