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 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. If you use tha word “swag” frequently, have auto-tune in your vocals, or
talk about nothin’ but money and hoes 100,000x (which I consider ‘typical’
topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

01.
“Kontraban (Intro)”
Time
ta start this thang off!! >>> Sounds good; sounds like you got a young Young Jeezy vibe goin’ on, and it
sounds good! I like how you sound like you’re a target on this track; gotta
feel tha paranoia! “A victim of 9/11, but I ain’t talkin’ towers;” nice line!
Thumbs up for tha “rest in peace lunch meat” part, too! My Rating: 4.5
02.
“A Problem”
Correct!
>>> Beat sounds good for what you chose to rap on; your rhymes are
like good kush! You know you gotta
have it, especially 24/7!! LOL @ tha “pussy” smellin’ “like water!” Looks like I was correct wit what tha title’s representin’; glad you’re “a fuckin’ problem,” muthafuckin’ Toke, lol! Tha 2nd
verse sounds good, too; you just don’t fuckin’ stop wit this tight-ass shit, Toke!!
My Rating: 4.4
03.
“Big Foot”
>>>
This shit sounds real great, too! Thumbs up fa this mysterious beat you chose,
includin’ tha whole “Big Foot” theme! Fuckin’ luvin’ it, includin’ your
whisperin’ on tha hook! Just like tha 1st verse, you’re comin’ through
wit some tight-ass shit! Tha 3rd verse sounds great, too; great job
thinkin’ of a theme/title like this! A 4th verse, too? Thumbs up fa
contributin’ quite a bit, “Big” Toke!! My
Rating: 4.9
04.
“Bumm”
Thump,
lol! Dat kush! >>> I like how you sound real high on tha intro; this
gon be about a “bumm” on tha streetz? Tha 1st verse sounds good wit
what you’re comin’ through wit! Tha hook sounds real catchy wit tha “ewe” shit;
I like how you keep sayin’, “ewe!” I always have said, “ewe,” before and after
things, equivalent to sayin’, “lol!” Tha 2nd verse sounds great;
likin’ tha descriptive rhymes about someone’s pockets and analyzin’ these
“characters!” My Rating: 4.4
05.
“Tweakin’” Feat. Yung Renny
Lookin’
forward to tha newbie on tha feature! >>> Almost sounds like Gucci
Mane in tha beginning, but I’m likin’ tha “bars” beginning; good start ta
what’s gonna sound great! You sound
good on tha 1st verse! “Tweakin’” all ova tha place wit yo
crazy-ass, Toke; good shit! Hearin’ this 2nd verse, and iz this tha
featured artist? Sounds like a close family member or friend of yours? Good
shit wit keepin’ this shit up! Oh, here’s tha feature on tha 3rd
verse… He sounds like a good reprasentative fa you, Toke! Thumbs up fa tha both
of y’all holdin’ it down! My Rating: 4.2
06.
“Paper Chasin’” Feat. Kidd, ArJay & Beezy Bird
G-Lane
in tha house wit tha features; let’s hear this super collaboration!!
>>> Whoa, tha volume went up once you came to start off tha 1st
verse! Good, consistent rappin’ goin’ on, here!! Tha 2nd part of tha
1st verse (from tha one of tha dude) sounds nice (was that Kidd?)!
Tha hook sounds nice; luvin’ tha whole dark vibe wit all these jointz! Tha 2nd
verse iz off to a nice, fast start; I assume this iz that ArJay dude that I
neva heard before? LOL, he comes Beezy Bird outta nowhere, on tha 2nd
part of tha 2nd verse! Likin’ all tha fast raps; they neva stop! My Rating: 4.5
07.
“Me & U” Feat. ArJay
>>>
For a song that’s a lil’ softer than tha usual shit you spit, I actually am
feelin’ this; you got a great vibe goin’ on wit tha hook, beat you chose, and
how you are deliverin’ tha 1st verse in a nice way for these ladies!! Tha 2nd verse sounds pretty
nice, too, wit how you bringin’ this “very special occasion” to tha listeners…
females, that iz! What’s wit all tha silence at tha end? My Rating: 4.3
08.
“Madd” Feat. Beezy Bird
Anotha
Beezy Bird feature! >>> Confirmed Sims production. Beat sounds like a
nice, non-stop beat sound; hot shit, here! Tha hook sounds pretty nice wit them
dumb-ass “madd” dudes! Nice 1st verse; you ain’t stoppin’ wit these
tight rhymes! Glad ta hear more Beezy Bird on tha 2nd verse, comin’
through wit a nice, rapid flow, combined wit his great style of doin’ it big!
Hearin’ you on tha 3rd verse, and I like how you combinin’ all kinds
of topics, from gangsta ta what you can offer ta these ladies! My Rating: 4.4
½time: Doin’ it B.I.G., Toke!! A
4.5-rated
CD, currently, and there’s a lot ta
offer wit this mixtape!! Glad you ain’t
goin’ soft on any of these
jointz!!!!!
09.
“Work”
Yezzir!
>>> Sounds good; great “work” anthem and you doin’ a nice job rappin’
ova this beat! LOL @ you “eatin’ Cherrios,” and how you also “gon move these
Cherrios;” great combo of “Cherrios!” Tha 2nd verse goes real hard,
too; you ain’t close ta stoppin’ wit
anything, Mr. Toke!! My Rating: 4.4
10.
“Josh O.G. Lampton”
Who
dis? >>> Not bad wit tha beat you’re rappin’ on, here; great rhymes fa
tryin’ ta calm down when it comes ta dealin’ wit deaths. At least you don’t
sound boring, here, and prove some of your addiction-type things you’re
rappin’, here. Nice rhymes in tha 2nd verse, too; too bad they
didn’t wanna “go ta class.” Here I am, wit a Master’s Degree in Production;
gotta luv it! My Rating: 4.1
11.
“Get@Me”
>>>
Very hot beat start you chose; good ears! Good rhymes in tha 1st
verse; doesn’t get mo gangsta than this fa tha 2-to-tha-2-to-tha-5, lol! Tha 2nd
verse has even more ta offer wit killin’ ‘em wit your kick-ass rhymes! Rhymes
are definitely official!! Hope that
Ace (“Lil’ Nate”) dude gets outta jail, real soon!! Didn’t think he was still in there! My Rating: 4.7
12.
“My Bucket”
>>>
Anotha good ear for tha beats; sounds like this one’s gonna be goo—yea, likin’
this hook wit tha “ridin’ ‘round in my bucket” shit! What a great hook wit how you comin’ through
wit your “bucket!” Tha 1st
verse sounds pretty tight wit how you’re always
stayin’ focused!! Looks like you gon have a nice
future ahead of you, as one! You’re not a featured artist anymore; glad you
makin’ some CDs!! Tha 2nd verse sounds pretty nice; keep this shit
up!! What else can I say?! Tha 3rd verse continues ta keep this shit
up; this iz a perfect example of a
“money” song that’s not bullshitty and not
boring! You keep tha vibe up, and don’t sound like all tha mainstream rappers!
I had a feelin’ dat was Butla at tha end; nice check-in! My Rating: 4.7
13.
“Not Kongruent”
>>>
Anotha good ear for random beats; keep this dark, street shit up!! Good job on
tha tight hook, once again! Tha 1st verse has that great attitude from you, once again! On
other peoples’ mixtapes, I’d consider this that typical flow that sounds like
Rick Ross or Lil’ Wayne.
However, wit you, you keep it entertainin’, and I can’t help but ta
continuously feel it! Nice job wit how you comin’ through on tha 2nd
verse, too, straight killin’ it!! My
Rating: 4.3
14.
“Ol’ School”
>>>
Nice organ in tha beginning; great
ear for beats!! Lovin’ tha southern vibe you’re bringin’ to tha table, here! Definitely providin’ a feel-good vibe to
those in tha streetz, tha south, and more your toked-ass has ta offer, lol! Tha 2nd verse sounds good
wit your killa rhymes, once again; not even close
ta complainin’, here!! Tha 3rd verse sounds good wit all this
anti-“driver” shit, lol! Toketacular!! My
Rating: 4.4
15.
“Hoola Hoop”
>>>
Wasn’t sure what ta expect wit tha beginning, but you still keepin’ that hot
shit comin’ along. Tha 1st verse iz good wit what you spittin’; tha
hook (whateva it iz) sounds good fa how you wanna get dizzy, lol. Tha 2nd
verse sounds good, too; as long as shit’s comin’ from your mouth, then
everything’s all good!! My Rating: 4.0
16.
“1st 48‘em”
>>>
Interestin’ title, and how you comin’ through wit tha double voice on tha hook!
Sounds like dat Jeezy style like how you came through on tha “1st”
joint, on here. Pretty grimy for tha lyrical content on tha 2nd
verse; love your dark vibe!!! Good part about tha “T-shirt” shit; that’s gutta!
My Rating: 4.2
17.
“P.O.M.E.”
Endin’
it with… >>> Oh, “Product of My Environment” for what tha title stands
for; sounds like a regular, random internet-type rap song for tha hook, as it’s
off to a decent start… Tha 2nd verse has some good shit ta offer,
too; glad you keepin’ dat mean mug on your face, 24/7! Catchy shit goin’ on wit
tha 3rd verse, too; oh, you’re dangerous, Toke, lol! My Rating: 4.1
Overall: Definitely some kick-ass shit from dat boy Toke!!! You definitely did a nice job handlin’ these beats, in a gangsta/hood way!!! Keep up tha
great work and keep your eye on tha
music!!!
