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!

“Rashid”
An
intro from Nas, too… >>> Nas sounds a lil’ quiet in tha beginning…
Prolly should’ve turned his volume up… This title looks familiar, but I don’t
remember if I played it on my radio show or anything; played so many songs of
yours on my show… Anyway, nice beat to rap on, you sound good, and this iz some
good shit ta bob ya head to! My Rating: 4.3
02.
“iLuv H.E.R. Too” Feat. Elespee
Title
track. >>> Beat sounds good, here, too; anotha head-bobber! I like how
you said, “TLC ‘Creep’;” good job mentionin’ dat song in a part of your rhymes!
Definitely a nice job kickin’ ass wit
tha rhymes, and doin’ a great job tellin’ your message! Thumbs up for tha hook,
“too,” as well as all tha names I heard in tha hook! Elespee’s on tha 2nd
verse, and he sounds great wit tha rappin’; feels like you’re on a fast road
trip or somethin’, or sittin’ somewhere in tha hood! Whoo! You’re really rapid
on tha 3rd verse, really enjoyin’ this shit! LOL, I like how you
say, “bruh;” glad you’re really in
tha mood fa this music shit! My Rating: 4.5
03.
“eMCee Squared” Feat. Luke St.
John
>>>
Good intro; gotta keep tha “positive hip-hop” active, whereva it iz! Got Luke St. John
kickin’ off tha rappin’, here, and it sounds nice ta hear; consistency at its
finest! Did I forget to mention, this beat’s got a nice feel to it, NYC style! Tha hook sounds nice, too; I can feel
it, wit tha sample and what’s good wit it. You’re on tha 2nd verse,
and you’re comin’ through wit these worldwide rhymes! My Rating: 4.2
04.
“eMCee Squared” Feat. IL Duce & Box
Anotha
version, back ta back? >>> Beat’s different, here, but I like these
rappers a lil’ betta, on tha feature! IL Duce’s startin’ it off, and you
already know wit him: he kicks ass wit his rhymes, non-stop, wit, like, every
lyric!! Real nice job, Duce!! I’m
hearin’ tha hook now, and you got some tight shit goin’ on, here, wit tha “I’m
a real MC;” plus, I really like how tha title looks! Here’s Box on tha 2nd
verse, and he’s kickin’ ass wit his rhymes! It’s more like a callout to those
bitch-asses! Speakin’ of which, I had one block
me from Facebook ‘cause I reviewed a CD they produced a few jointz on. I
actually said I liked their beats,
and they untagged themselves outta tha post (that I do on Facebook of reviewz)!
I asked them why they untagged me—as well as it bein’ gay, and they blocked me;
WTF?!? Fuck!! Anyway, on a positive perspective, here you are on tha 3rd
verse, and these rhymes are too kick-assy!!! You’re very consistent wit it, and you can’t be stopped!!! My Rating: 4.7
05.
“Respect My Mind”
>>>
Only 95 seconds long? Glad there’s some short songs ta go wit tha regular
lengths; great way ta break it up! Sounds like straight-up rappin’ ova a
nicely-produced beat! My Rating: 4.3
06.
“Somethin’ 2 Say”
>>>
Beat sounds good ta rap on; a lil’ slower, but tha hip-hop breathes in tha air!
Hearin’ tha 1st verse, and it sounds good wit what you’re sayin’! Tha hook sounds nice, too, wit
tha distorted voice! Tha 2nd verse sounds good, too, wit how you’re
tryna “prove” ta people! My Rating: 4.2
½time: So far, a nice job done!!
I think my anger’s helpin’ me listen to this right now, when I thought I’d be
opposite and impatient, lol! Currently, we’re at a 4.4 for tha CD rating, right now!!!!
I have ta say, features help a whole lot; hope to hear more, here and there!
07.
“Somethin’ 2 Say Too”
>>>
This sounds pretty good, too; I almost feel tha same as what I did wit tha
previous song! Good beat, great lyrics, and you don’t stop!! My Rating: 4.2
08.
“What They Do”
>>>
Yea, I feel you wit these lyrics; “what happened” to tha singin’ lyrics and
shit “at tha concerts”? Great shit! Glad I buy music, here and there! Also, my
reviewz are unique; I don’t see anyone else doin’ ‘em! Year-end countdowns—I
can go on and on! Good job wit tha 1st verse; you did a nice job figurin’ out “what” happened!
Tha beat sounds good, too, wit tha East Coast-y vibe; tha hook’s nice wit what
you’re tryna say! I like tha random “what they do” sample, too; “Backstabbers”
bein’ remixed in tha beat and err-thang in a non-boring way. It’s like, you
don’t hear tha whole sample in its regular form! Hearin’ tha 2nd
verse, and it sounds pretty tight; I agree wit tha “live wit your moms” shit.
Even though I do, I can’t picture these rappers (or anyone) bringin’ up their
“moms” in conversations, especially since I always got picked on, during my
childhood! Hearin’ tha 3rd verse, and it sounds like you’re provin’
more to these “people;” good job! Thought there’d be only two verses, but you
made this one longer. My Rating: 4.1
09.
1Luv: Interlude
Donney
Rose doin’ tha interlude, here. >>> Nice prayer. My Rating: N/A
10.
“1Luv: Revisited” Feat. James Jackson, A.R. & Truth Universal
>>>
Startin’ wit a sample, remixed style…
Tha beat ain’t too bad, but sounds good once you start rappin’ on tha 1st
verse; good job! Tha hook sounds good; it’s like a New York-type joint wit tha
“1Luv” shit. Hearin’ James Jackson on tha 2nd verse, and it’s a
decent/above-average verse; I think you’re betta than him, though, Marcel.
Outta nowhere, A.R. came and took off for tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd
verse; pretty-good rhymes, here. Happy ‘late’ birthday; can’t believe he’s
younger than me, too. Clean version of this CD? Interestin’… Hearin’ this Truth
Universal dude on tha 3rd verse, and he’s got some good rhymes ta
offer; good shit ta hear! Hearin’ IL Duce and Box were two of tha best of your
collaborations, though! I’m listenin’ to you right now, and you’re nice and
fulla rhymes! Can’t even say you’re hungry ‘cause you’re full, and are farting, burping, and lettin’ out all these rhymes!
Now, this iz where a longer length
helps—collaborations! Props to J Filly! My
Rating: 4.3

“Celebrate (Remix)” (Common Feat. Marcel P. Black & John Legend)
Luke St. John on tha feature?
Anyway, let’s see how you do wit this remix… >>> Could’ve added John
Legend on tha—oh, that’s who tha John iz, lol. Didn’t say it in tha filename,
but scrollin’ on tha Bandcamp link, it’s there. Also, this CD’s released on
your birthday? That’s a nice present! Common’s part iz good to hear wit you,
but let’s see what you really have
ta—more Common! Prolly could’ve limited an inserted artist to one verse, but at
least he ain’t wack… Good lyrics; good rhymes… Now, hearin’ you on tha 3rd
verse, and yea, this iz tha voice I wanna hear! There’s attitude in your voice,
while Common sounded a lil’ laidback for what your CD sounds like… But yea,
nice job wit what you’re spittin’, “freedom” style! My Rating: 3.8
12.
“Black President”
LOL,
this ended a CD, once again. Oh wait, this iz a CD; previously, it was EPs… My Current Rating: 3.5
Overall: Seemed like one of your
best? For bein’ double tha size of your EPs, you put a nice vibe, here, between
your hood shit, attitude, and tha features were nice to hear!! Keep up tha great work, especially collaborations!!
