Review #1,191: 2 Slugz "2 Slugz a.k.a. Slugz Lucas"

Reviewed on 9.20.2012 (Review #1,191)

Didn’t wanna get up early fa reviewz, but I’m tryin’ ta pull through… Startin’ off today iz my boy, 2 Slugz 2 Slugz a.k.a. Slugz Lucas! Now, Slugz iz wit Boss Click Muzik; let’s get it! Start Time: 8:14 AM | End Time: 9:25 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 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. Intro

What will it be in 20 seconds? >>> I’m used ta you sayin’, “man,” but you said, “mane,” here, lol; gotta luv my boy Slugz! My Rating: N/A

02. “Fa Dat 12” Feat. Codakk Demond

This looks like it gon be good!!! >>> Feelin’ tha beat and what y’all got goin’ on here wit all tha “might as well fa dat 12” shit! Let’s hear tha verses… Got you on tha 1^st verse, and there’s quite a bit of non-stop rhymes, here; good shit, Slugz! Glad you got a whole project goin’ on, here; keep tha hot-ass music comin’ along!! Even though there’s not another hook, yet, at least tha beat’s changin’ up! This Codakk dude comin’ through sounds real nice wit his consistent rhymes; good shit! My Rating: 4.4

03. “So G”
Yup! >>> Nice beat start; this gon be tight! Feelin’ tha hook; tha “G”ness ain’t stoppin’…eva…fa you, Slugz! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse, and it sounds good, reppin’ fa “tha streetz!” Tha 2^nd verse sounds good, too; not much ta say, but keep this shit goin’! A lil’ cocky wit tha “make it rain” shit, but I can let you slide. My Rating: 4.1

04. “Drink A Couple Brews”
LOL! >>> Sounds like you goin’ off on this beat wit how you have a wild Slugz life, lol! Tha hook sounds tight; you and your crazy ass, lol! Keepin’ this shit goin’ wit tha 2^nd verse, too; Sl-Sl-Slugz!!! My Rating: 4.3

05. “Down” Feat. Derty Red & Mac Soul

Looks like it gon be a good collaboration! >>> DJ Burn One beat? You’re on tha 1^st verse, and tha rhymes sound good; good shit you bringin’ to tha table. Ehh, not really into a-tune that much, but luckily, tha hook ain’t too bad; a lil’ bit of catchiness goin’ on wit it… Derty Red doin’ a nice job on tha 2^nd verse, here; cool voice fa who he iz! Thumbs up fa reppin’ nice fa tha Slugga! Here’s tha 3^rd verse (Mac Soul), comin’ through wit some good shit. Lyrics are aight; nothin’ that would make me get out my seat… My Rating: 4.0

06. “All Week” Feat. John Gotti

Keepin’ tha collabs goin’! >>> You sound good on this beat; comin’ through wit your own slugz on tha 1^st verse? LOL, almost didn’t expect it at first, but you got some daily character goin’ on in your voice, here! Tha hook sounds nice; “all week,” “all” day long!! LOL, speakin’ of me sayin’, “day,” you started sayin’ dayz of tha week! Got that John Gotti dude on tha 2^nd verse, and he’s got a bit of a cool voice, comin’ through wit some good shit; can’t complain… My Rating: 4.3

07. “I Doubt It”

>>> Sounds like you doin’ a nice job on this beat; a neva-endin’ Slugz you iz, ya feel me? “I” like how tha hook sounds; some of these repetitive hooks really catch you, and you know what you doin’, Slugz! LOL @ tha 2^nd verse; you usin’ all your energy, no matter if it’s tha hoes or tha club! My Rating: 4.2

08. “Grind” Feat. Hub

>>> A lil’ on a borderline R&B vibe, since you said you were “gettin’ [your] Trey Songz on.” A lil’ catchy for a really slow song; glad you got your character expressin’ in tha 1^st verse! Tha hook sounds like a fuckin’ tight-ass sex action; feelin’ tha orgasmic actions goin’ on! It’s all about provin’ your character in a song than someone just sayin’, “We fuckin’, we fuckin’, we fuckin’, we fuckin’,” right? Good job wit tha 2^nd verse, too; it’s all about dat hook and how you be not stoppin’!!! Thumbs up wit tha 3^rd verse, too, goin’ all in tha girl’s “nipples,” too; ain’t that Slugzalicious fa dem hoes?! My Rating: 4.4

09. “Just Say It” Feat. Codakk Demond

>>> Unless you’re gettin’ tickled, this a-tune can be acceptable; ehh, a lil’ not for me, but once again, I’m likin’ it again. I mean, I’ve fucked wit you for over three years now, and there’s somethin’ about what you be spittin’ that I can’t deny anything; as long as you not rappin’ in a-tune, and soundin’ like you suckin’ dick while usin’ it, you’ll be fine! Tha 1^st verse must be Codakk, and it sounds like a sequel to tha “Grind” song; yea, get dem “screws” loose! Hearin’ you on tha 2^nd verse, and I like tha shit you got goin’ on here wit followin’ up your “Grind” song! “3:00 in tha morning?” Oh, I’d luv ta sleep ova wit you and see what goes on wit your crazy ass, one day, lol; you da man, 2-muthafuckin’-Slugz!!! No 3^rd verse, but some tastin’ goin’ on toward tha end… My Rating: 3.8

10. “Straight Up” Feat. Zoom

>>> Startin’ off wit a hook, and it sounds good wit your repeatin’ tha title formula, “straight up!” Here you are on tha 1^st verse, and you makin’ ‘em all believe as much as possible! Once again, you’re comin’ through on tha 2^nd verse, and can I say, “Dr.” Slugz? You seem ta give err-body what they need! Got tha Zoom dude on tha 3^rd verse, and he sounds like a cool dude from tha hood; can I picture him havin’ dreads or somethin’? Yea, “stab him wit tha dagger, bruh;” nice line, as it stabs tha haterz in they weak-ass asses! Love how it ended wit him rappin’! My Rating: 4.0

½time: So far, this iz a really good mixtape (sounds more like an album than mixtape); 4.2 iz tha CD rating, currently!! You got a lot of shit goin’ on, Slugz; enjoy tha buzz you gettin’ off dis CD ‘cause it’s payin’ off!!!

11. “Hearts Of Men” Feat. Mac Soul

>>> This sounds pretty good; you got some drama goin’ on in tha 1^st verse? Wait, neva mind, you can bounce back and switch thangz up in a quick second! Tha hook sounds cool; almost has a bit of pop-type singin’ goin’ on wit your voice. LOL, let’s get tha hot weathergirl around from tha local TV station, and things’ll be betta! You’re on tha 2^nd verse, and you keepin’ this shit goin’ wit more ta offer. Let’s hear tha Mac Soul dude on tha 3^rd verse… Good lyrics, and an okay verse goin’ on, here. My Rating: 3.9

12. “Sex” Feat. Hub

>>> Long, quiet intro that sounds like a conversation… Here you are on tha 1^st verse, almost 40 seconds in, and it seems like you’re ready fa some “sex”? Hope you can deliver it like your “Grind” song, song style! LOL @ tha hook; sounds like interests in “sex.” Sounds good, but where are tha sound effects? Here you are on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit descriptive lyrics… at least. Tha Hub dude’s just doin’ some background vocal-type shit in tha hook, which sounds good for an extra element. Oh, a lil’ bridge toward tha end; nice… My Rating: 3.7

13. “Love Them Sexy Girls”

LOL, likin’ this title. >>> Sounds like one of them online tracks, especially since there’s no one listed in tha feature? Off to an okay start; let’s hear what you got for tha rhymes… Okay, startin’ off wit a “ride;” let’s hope—ooh, some biting, too! Keep tha descriptive rhymes up… and, sound effects!!! Tha 2^nd verse doesn’t sound dat bad, either; I think this should be tha end of tha “girls” songs for a while, though… My Rating: 3.5

14. “Somebody Let ‘Em Know”

>>> Sounds like a grind goin’ on wit this beginning… That was tha hook that started this off, and it sounds pretty catchy; gotta “let ‘em know” about Slugz!! Here you are on tha 1^st verse, “still ackin’ wit 2ooley;” good name-drop! LOL @ tha random “Tupac Back” song mention, too; likin’ these random things you’re rappin’ about, here, a-day-in-tha-life-of-2-Slugz style! Tha 2^nd verse sounds decent/good, too, pushin’ yourself as far as you can! My Rating: 3.7

15. “Make It Happen”

LOL, cool that this iz here! I thought it was also on tha one CD from last year that I couldn’t get to hear (due to tha files you sent me were protected)! My Current Rating: 4.3

16. “Frank Lucas”

Interestin’ name you got goin’ on, here. >>> Sounds a lil’ random, here, but it’s still good… Tha rhymes in tha 1^st verse iz nice; I like what you got goin’ on, rhymes wise! Let’s see if you can make a catchy hook… Sounds a lil’ funny wit tha title, but I like your “bright future” prediction. Tha 2^nd verse sounds like you “live dat life” in a great way! I remember when you got affiliated wit Savage Life Entertainment; it’s almost like I was there wit you since day one, and it’s really appreciated to know that I’ve been followin’ you since then! I thought there would be room for a 3^rd verse, but two iz fine. My Rating: 3.8

17. “It’s Okay” Feat. John Gotti & Codakk Demond

>>> Sounds like a decent song, but good for memories of tha good times. I think this might happen ‘cause my 91-year-old great-grandma’s house area’s gettin’ bulldozed next year! :( So, hearin’ this while it’s still around must be a memory? Hope I can see it one more time! Good job wit this catchy hook; “ahh, it iz okay!” Nice job wit also rappin’ tha 1^st verse good, wit tha shit you offerin’ ta tha hood! Thumbs up fa tha Gotti dude comin’ through wit some catchy shit fa tha 2^nd verse, “hoes”tacular, at its finest! And, street-smart! Now, got Codakk on tha 3^rd verse, and he’s got a lot of kick-ass rhymes comin’ out his tight-ass mouth! I like tha “smoke blunts longer than tha word Mississippi” line; oh, I’d luv ta kick it wit him one day! My Rating: 4.0

18. “Lose It”

>>> You sound focused on this beat; hook sounds good, too. If you had a bit more energy wit how you deliver tha hook, it would prolly catch on better… Anyway, tha 1^st verse sounds like you’re fresher than tha best bitch in tha buildin’; Slugztastic! Here’s tha 2^nd verse, and tha freshness continues… Oh, a “Make It Happen” quote, lol! My Rating: 3.8

19. “No Survival” Feat. Chop

>>> Sounds like this iz gonna be betta than some of tha previous songs… Here you are on tha 1^st verse, and I like tha “come up” perspective you bringin’ to tha table, here. Tha hook sounds catchy wit makin’ people beware ta “come outchea;” I like tha various animals, too, lol! Also, tha title sounds good, too! You got more shit on tha 2^nd verse, and I’m likin’ how “these hoes” are all in you! Chop on tha 3^rd verse? Sounds like a Meek Mill breed, wit a lil’ bit of a slower flow. I have ta say, thumbs up fa tha gangsta shit; definitely good shit! However, how can people “have 8 niggaz with [them]”? It seems hard for me to recruit people for things… Once again, glad this ended wit a kick-ass featured artist rappin’! My Rating: 4.2

20. “Solja”
Love all tha different spellings of “soulja,” etc.! How we gon end this? >>> Likin’ tha beat sound you’re gonna rap on, here; lookin’ forward ta hearin’ this! Tha hook sounds great; likin’ tha “solja” status!! You’re nice and ready fa tha 1^st verse, here; thumbs up fa comin’ through wit your own “solja” perspective! Likin’ tha 2^nd verse, too; all about dat gangsta shit, here! My Rating: 4.3

Overall: Great job, Slugz; you got a bunch of kick-ass songs from this CD!! Thumbs up ta your kick-ass features, too; all them dudes go hard wit tha shit they bringin’ to tha table!! Y’all bosses keep doin’ tha damn thang! It’s FrankieThaLuckyDog, signin’ out!
