Review #1,241: CarterBoy Selfmade "Me Against The World"

Reviewed on 12.30.2012 (Review #1,241)


Here’s anotha review from CarterBoy Selfmade Me Against The World. Iz it me, or does he look like Tim Thugga on tha front cover? Start Time: 6:08 PM | End Time: 6:20 PM


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. “Me Against The World”
DJ Pookie on tha beat. >>> I prolly heard one or two of these samples from YouTube… However, in a review perspective, it sounds like a good song wit tha beat and how you deliver shit like a little Lil’ Boosie… Good lil’ all-over-tha-place flow and character; what else ta say? Oh yea, I hate hearin’ about “money!” My Rating: 4.3


02. “What You Riding On”
Advanced Level Production on tha beat; who’s that? >>> Kinda cocky wit tha beginning of too big of a dream; “cars” are a lot of money! This ain’t bad for a song, overall; kinda sounds a lil’ typical wit what all these ‘rappers’ want… My Rating: 3.8


03. “She My Baby”
WheelzBeatz beat. >>> Sounds good; how does every rapper have a “girl”? I don’t get it! Been single my whole life; how ‘bout dat? My Rating: 3.9


04. “I Ain’t Wanna Do It” Feat. Tim Thugga
JP On The Track beat; where’s tha B-Real and tha known producers? >>> Tha hook sounds catchy; not diggin’ tha beat tag randomly appearin’! That’s not hip-hop! Good collaboration, once again; glad you got some character in your voice! My Rating: 4.2


05. “I’m All Alone”
Khuz On The Track beat. >>> A lil’ screechy in tha beginning, but somewhat in a way to where you can get people that are almost annoyed, like myself, ta like. You did a catchy job wit that hook; tha verses are a lil’ above okay for me… My Rating: 4.3


06. “Answer Back”
Advanced Level Production beat. >>> Why anotha song about a dude hatin’ on anotha dude?! Yet, y’all like, “R.I.P. Lil’ Phat;” very contradictorily! A lil’ blah-blah-y for me; I rather hear somethin’ else… My Rating: 3.4


½time: A 4.0-rated CD, currently; sounds like you’re on a good streak…


07. “Why Me”
Kolossal Beats beat. >>> Good rhymes wit tha track you’re rappin’ ova; catchy hook! My Rating: 4.2


08. “Like You”
CashX Beats; how come none of these producers have a homo-soundin’ name? >>> A much slower vibe; sounds like you have character burstin’ outta you, everywhere! Sounds like anyone can get caught in-between your rhymes! Like, sexually and as for dudes, in a trap! My Rating: 4.0


09. “Family Problems”
TrackSlammers beat. >>> Fits wit tha other songs, only this one’s about “family problems.” I have ta say, good shit. People still “get shot,” no homo? When will people retire that dumb-ass shit? Glad I neva see guns! I think I see one every year and that’s it…; might even be harder to see one. My Rating: 4.1


10. “Always On My Mind”
HollyWood beat. >>> Nothin’ too special; it’s only decent. My Rating: 3.5


11. “So Fly”
TrackSlammers beat. >>> This iz okay, too, but a lil’ betta… My Rating: 3.6


12. “Dam You My Nigga” Feat. Tim Thugga
Again, endin’ it without listin’ a producer… >>> A song I can’t depict tha definition; I dunno how anotha dude can care about anotha dude. Anyway, good character on tha hook; nice job… My Rating: 4.2


Overall: Was this better? I think so; you have a good mix, but nothin’ that captures someone’s full attention, yet. Keep up tha good collaborations, as well as tha ear for beats!
