Review #1,303: Tha Kidd AJC "Back 2 Work (Hosted by DJ Ya Boy Earl)"

Reviewed on 7.09.2013 (Review #1,303)

Up next, it’s Tha Kidd AJC, now with Rich Kidd Entertainment, Back 2 Work (Hosted by DJ Ya Boy Earl)! Yes, anotha Ya Boy Earl-hosted CD!! This tha 3^rd one I reviewed in tha past week!! I was gonna review this last night, but I fell into a depression and was tearing in my bed… I think wit tha last review (Lil’ Mista) and all those shitty things I said about my shitty situations with people hit me. Also, I had a big trip planned, and it looks like it’s completely ruined, now that it’s tha 9^th. Obviously, it’s affecting my family, as I’m gettin’ knocked for still fuckin’ wit Louisiana music and not gettin’ a job… Kinda odd ‘cause four hours before, I was delighted that Ya Boy Earl retweeted me & tweeted somethin’ great about me and then, I’m tearing over not bein’ important to those not acknowledgin’ me. I’m goin’ through moodswings ‘cause I know this year’s suckin’ real bad, compared to last year, where I was with tha news station and travelin’ everywhere… So, wit that bein’ said, I hope this iz my last current review for a while! Start Time: 8:54 AM | End Time: 10:02 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! After I was robbed by an artist who claimed they “get money,” hearin’ about how much you “got money” and anything “money” really bothers me. If you have not done business wit me before, I won’t tolerate “money” talk in tha music!!

01. “Lifetime (Intro)”

Production from X-Fyle, here; let’s kick it off! >>> Your intro, here, sounds like what I need to do: “Take a break … Get my head right!” You’re speakin’ my mind!! “Felt like I wasn’t really important;” that’s exactly how I feel!! You see what I wrote before I started this review! Thanx for makin’ me feel what you’re sayin’!! Now, 1:00 in, time fa tha rappin’… Sounds good; feelin’ what you goin’ through! Also, interestin’ beat from X-Fyle, includin’ tha hook and “lifetime” sample! “Off dat loud pack;” nice way ta recover from stress on tha 2^nd verse. Wit me, I swear, I could blow pounds of kush wit all this depressin’ shit I’m dealin’ wit. However, because I don’t see any of it, I try to deal wit myself! How has it been nine months since my previous kush moment?!? WTF?! Been through a hell of a lot since!! But, to cheer me up, Ya Boy Earl on tha outro! Like all of us, we all gotta stay positive and not let things get in our way! My Rating: 4.4

02. “Earthquake” Feat. Danarryl Von

Production from Muggz, here; let’s hear it! >>> Nice beginning beat… Wit Earl in tha intro, I’m not sure what I’m exactly enterin’, here, wit this song… I know I’ve heard this singer on tha hook before (I recognize tha name)… Weird vocals, and weird lyrics wit tha “tryna get tha cake like today’s my birthday” shit, lol… Almost thought he said, “Like two days, it’s my birthday,” lol… That’s why, I thought it was weird, at first. It ain’t that bad, this time around… Here you are on tha 1^st verse and now, tha beat’s startin’ ta go from real unique to typical, mainstream-soundin’ shit… Okay 1^st verse from you wit what you spittin’… Here you are on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit more okay rhymes; this iz a betta verse, and it’s always good ta hear some feelin’-fucked-up lyrics… “Murda Millz;” where was he? My Rating: 3.8

03. “Flex” Feat. Young Swagga

Wit a title and featured artist name like this, I think I gon skip… You on tha beat, here… >>> Yea, skip. My Rating: 1.0

04. “In Dis MF” Feat. Young Ready & Lil’ Pokey

Looks anticipatin’, wit Hitman on tha beat! >>> Sounds like a perfect recovery from tha previous song!! Nice beat sound, here, and Earl’s hypin’ thangz up wit tha intro!! Nice hook; definitely feelin’ tha “in dis MF” shit, strictly hypin’ err-body up!! Here’s Ready on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit a great collaboration… Feelin’ his energy ova this beat! Good shit from you on tha 2^nd verse, stayin’ consistent wit bein’ “in dis MF!” Let’s hear this Pokey dude on tha 3^rd verse… Why he sound like Level??? That’s my only feedback for tha verse… Well, it was good, but still… My Rating: 4.5

05. “I’m Gettin’ It”

All on you, here! >>> Beat’s a lil’ mainstream-soundin’… Not really into tha 1^st ½ of tha hook wit tha “money,” but you made it sound betta wit tha “gar” and “lean.” Your rhymes on tha 1^st verse sound catchy, here… Tha 2^nd verse ain’t too bad, either; you’re stayin’ consistent, here… Now, wit a long beat outro, will Earl appear? … … …No? SMH. My Rating: 3.7

06. “Still Dreamin’”

Mikey Beatz beat; iz that an original, Louisiana producer? Lemme hear to find out… >>> Long, quiet beat intro, here…; wonder what we got goin’ on… Sounds nice and laidback; good rhymes you bringin’ to tha table on tha 1^st verse, here… Tha hook sounds like you got a bigger future ahead. I guess I’m “still dreamin’,” by stayin’ busy wit makin’ video countdowns, but I wish somethin’ would pop off fa me soon… Ooh, an Earl outro, here! I feel what he sayin’ about people bein’ “scared.” However, because I’m stuck, surrounded by family, they’re “scared,” and won’t let me live on my own, etc., so it’s like, I’m resistin’ workin’ at, like, VH1 and shit ‘cause I live in no-future Pennsylvania, smh. But, great outro from Earl! No fear wit tha LuckyDog! My Rating: 3.9

07. “By Myself” Feat. X-Fyle

Not exactly “by” yourself, as it’s a collaboration, includin’ X-Fyle producin’ this for ya… >>> Was gonna skip this wit those gay-soundin’ vocals on tha hook, but I’ll try to be patient… Beat sounds like it’s on a semi-East Coast vibe; not bad… Here you are on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit some good, real rhymes… Hearin’ tha hook for a 2^nd time, and it’s soundin’ a lil’ betta/catchier. Still, I don’t see tha need to be insecure about a voice, X-Fyle!! Good job wit tha 2^nd verse, too; startin’ ta feel this a lil’ more… Ooh, and an Earl outro! Gotta remember dem birthdayz, Earl! Check your e-mail!! My Rating: 3.6

08. “The Ride” Feat. Brittany Tanner

You producin’ this one; I think this gon be laidback… >>> LOL, I skipped it before I even looked at tha ID! My Rating: 1.0

09. “What Ya Want”

Production from Mouse On Tha Track, here. Did he change it to “Da” ‘cause I thought it was “Tha”? I keep seein’ “Da” a lot… >>> Talk about recovery: Everytime, somethin’ really wack comes on, Ya Boy Earl saves tha day wit an intro to tha next song!! Nice intro ta get you in tha mood… Here you are on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit some nice shit, as well as this nice beat from Mouse… Tha hook sounds catchy; sounds like you “got” everythang… Tha 2^nd verse sounds catchy, too… Wow, this seemed like a quick joint. My Rating: 4.0

½time: So far, this a nice CD wit great production. However, two jointz really knocked tha average rating down, due to a-tune. I’m an ‘80s baby, so I don’t fuck wit dat shit! Wit that bein’ said, only a 3.3 for tha CD rating, currently. :(

10. “Thuggin’” Feat. Max Minelli & X-Fyle

More production from X-Fyle, here, and anotha collaboration! >>> Beat sounds good… Max startin’ it off, here, wit a nice, consistent 1^st verse! Likin’ what he bringin’ to tha table, here! Also, he holdin’ tha hook down… Sounds good, but it’s startin’ ta sound really mainstream wit tha “like it ain’t nothin’” shit repeatin’… Now, it’s time fa you on tha 2^nd verse, AJ… Good shit, can’t complain… Hope X-Fyle doesn’t ruin it wit tha 3^rd verse, here… Almost didn’t expect rappin’… Sounds kinda like an easy life, mixed wit a Max Minelli flow… Now, tha fastness sounded like Mystikal? Sounds like a banana split gone weird… Mixture of many styles, good, mainstream, and weird: From tha fast rappin’, to all tha references to people, and more… No Earl outro? My Rating: 4.1

11. “Fuck Dat Hoe”

SMH @ tha clean back cover… Yung Els did this track… >>> Okay, I’ll take an Earl intro… “Goin’ ta tha strip club;” let’s hear it! Ehh, this beat sounds very mainstream; no Louisiana sound at all! However, tha hook’s pretty catchy wit fuckin’ these hoes! Not really feelin’ tha lyrics on tha 1^st verse, here; very wack… Too many quotes, mainstream perspectives, and a mainstream-soundin’ delivery. Sounds like I can only fuck wit tha hook, here… Let’s see how tha 2^nd verse gon do… Just as wack. What happened to usin’ jigg-related lyrics ta get tha hoes? Guess that ain’t what’s up anymore? Kinda sucks ‘cause it’s not like I can just pop up in Louisiana like it’s nothin’… By tha time I get ta Louisiana, there betta still be jiggin’! It could be years from now!! Just waitin’ on a dude ta go wit me; that’s tha only thing stoppin’ me!! Also, it would be cool ta bring rappin’ granny wit me so she can see how many real fans I have… My Rating: 2.2

12. “Fly As A MF”

Anotha muthafuckin’ “muthafucka” song, lol… Production from Q-Red; time ta mention how ugly I recently look! >>> As always, due to no acknowledgement wit my awards (of 2010; that long ago???), I refuse to comment on tha production until I get an acknowledgement and possibly, an apology. As far as tha song, it sounds catchy wit tha “A …, or B …; C …, or D…” shit; definitely catchy! Tha 1^st verse ain’t too bad, here; I feel what you sayin’, as you’re comin’ through, feelin’ great. Tha 2^nd verse sounds kinda mainstream-like wit tha flow, at first, but it’s gettin’ back to soundin’ betta… My Rating: 4.2

13. “Definition Of Swag” Feat. Lil’ Cali & Danarryl Von

If I had to define it, I’d say that it’s a girly, pre-teenage, faggy, outta style, weakened hip-hop, makes-everyone-sound-tha-same, corny-kinda word/definition. You know tha term iz dead when there’s a female kids commercial that goes, “I got swag, I got swag, baby!” Didn’t you guys think that white dudes ruined black things, such as certain dances, hand gestures, etc.? I dunno why none of y’all are catchin’ on to these diseased terms! But anyway, you on tha beat; let’s hope I skip this one! >>> Glad ta hear Earl on tha intro, here, but what about that commercial, Earl? Little girls talkin’ ‘bout “swag!” Sounds a lil’ weird wit tha vocals on tha hook, here, wit tha “uh huh.” I can’t really take this hook serious (usin’ “ma’fucka” as a noun fa this, lol?), tryna go hard or somethin’… I grew up in New York… Tha 1^st verse sounds okay; not too bad, overall… Got Cali on tha 2^nd verse, here… Of course, gotta feel what he spittin’; there’s no wack zone when you’re fuckin’ wit Cali! “Young nigga wit tha swag of a 30-year vet;” you’re almost there, Cali! August 30, 2014’ll be tha day! Here’s tha 3^rd verse… Of course, it’s Danarryl. Really not feelin’ these vocals; why does it have ta be rapped? Also, Kevin Gates-sound wit tha dickridin’? Heard a fixated note (e.g., “right now-oh”). Pathetic lyrics, mainly; definitely ain’t fa me! I would’ve skipped this if tha 3^rd verse was first! Was on an average/below-average level, at first, until tha 3^rd verse came… Have ta take some points off fa dat! My Rating: 2.4

14. “I Can Fly”

All on you, again. >>> This was #15 on tha DatPiff tracklisting; hate when tha #s are flipped… Nice beginning wit tha smokin’-related shit. Was that tha hook in tha beginning? Sounds pretty plain for a kush-related topic like this… Sounds like “I can” hear a betta character of yours on tha 1^st verse, here; not bad… Tha beat’s soundin’ cool—oh, I hear tha actual hook, now. It’s still a lil’ plain, but not bad. I like dat line: “Take a shit on you niggaz…” Everyone knows that I literally “take” shits on those that disrespect me, do bad business wit me, etc.! April 29, 2005 was tha first time I did dat…, for someone’s birthday, no less…, before my Louisiana connection! Anyway, tha 2^nd verse sounds pretty good, too… Will Ya Boy Earl come through wit some diarrhea fa these haterz on tha outro…? Fuck, no diarrhea! Felt like havin’ diarrhea in your stomach ‘cause of no Earl on tha outro! :( My Rating: 4.0

15. “Cut Buddy”
Keepin’ everything of yours continuing… >>> Nice beginning beat… “I just do me, like Rocko;” always gotta keep tha Nu$$ie-Alive, 2008 times active in quotes/memories! Not bad for tha 1^st verse, overall… Tha hook sounds okay; once again, not bad, AJ! Tha 2^nd verse sounds catchy wit these rhymes, too; who wouldn’t wanna have sex wit you, AJ? A 3^rd verse, here… Not so bad; you gettin’ your freak on, like Missy… Now, wit 45 seconds left, hope there’s an Earl outr—well, you stole his thunder, this time! “I’m single; no kids, no wife;” what I am, and that’s how you focus on your career! My Rating: 3.7

16. “Parking Lot Pimpin’” Feat. Young Swagga

Not that name again…; you on tha beat. >>> Exactly what I expected for tha start… Just for impatient fun, let’s see how long this’ll last wit me… Well, on a Paul Wall/H-Town-soundin’ style wit this hook. I like tha beat, and tha vibe you’re bringin’ to tha table, here… Here you are on tha 1^st verse and lol, you even said, “H-Town,” too… You got a nice, Paul Wall-like delivery/voice, here, wit tha “doawnn” shit, lol. I just wish that featured person would take tha dick outta his mouth, already, wit those vocals!!! Here you are on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit more catchy shit… LOL, Ya Boy Earl on tha outro! “Tha thick purple, not tha thin purple!” Nice and obsessive-descriptive, Earl! Good thing I didn’t skip this ‘cause I wouldn’t’ve heard tha outro… But yea, thumbs up fa tha extra-fucked up outro, Earl! But, because of tha gay vocals, earlier, I have to heavily deduct my score… My Rating: 2.1

17. “Put Ya Cups Up” Feat. Danarryl Von

Thought this was a really old song…? Anyway, you’re on tha beat, once again. >>> Yea, this iz tha same song. Danarryl Von = Murda Millz? Accordin’ to tha beginning, it sounds like it… My Current Rating: 4.6

18. “Fuck Sum”

Keepin’ it goin’ wit just you… >>> Anotha nice beat from you; interestin’ sounds! They catch on in a great way! Sounds like a nice song ta get fucked up, more than fuckin’ “sumthin’,” lol. Tha 1^st verse sounds nice, too; keep it goin’! Tha 2^nd verse sounds good, too… No Earl outro? I know there’s still 47 seconds left on tha clock, but I’m impatient, lol! My Rating: 4.3

19. “Road To Riches” Feat. Young Swagga

Wit a title about money, and tha Swagga dude on tha feature, I think I gon either throw up or skip this one, to end it off… >>> Nice and laidback start… Too bad tha featured artist has to talk about “money,” if it’s not a gay voice, smh… Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse and it sounds nice and good/laidback. Also, tha volume’s a lot lower on this track? You should always have all your volumes up! Just so you know, every song I’ve downloaded/got since 2003 has had their volumes fixed! Anyway, onto tha 2^nd verse… Sounds like it must be this Swagga dude… He’s all ova tha place wit these rhymes, and tha rhymes are pretty stale/garbage for me… I guess it’s me bein’ an ‘80s baby why I don’t feel it too much? Here you are on tha outro, Earl! I like how he’s like, “Sleep?” I say tha same thing! I called one producer up a few dayz ago, and they were like, “I’m sleepin’, bruh;” really? Why “sleep”? I thought rappers don’t sleep?! At least when someone calls me while I’m sleepin’, I pick up, be like, “What up,” like I was awake! That’s anotha reason why I’m unique! But yea, thumbs up fa hostin’ anotha CD, Earl!! My Rating: 2.2

Overall: I enjoyed this CD, AJ. I think you did a great job wit it, as well as some of tha collaborations, but mainly, tha variety of production! There were a few garbage songs on here, but that didn’t stop me from supportin’ what I had ta support! Also, wit Earl on it, ya gotta give it props! Keep grindin’! I know I’ll try ta keep grindin’, but I hope I transcend into tha full-time video world, soon!

Review #1,302: Mista Cain "Louisicain 2.5 (The Mixtape): Hurrican + Suga Cain + Cocain (Hosted by DJ Ya Boy Earl)"

Reviewed on 7.08.2013 (Review #1,302)

Keepin’ tha reviewz goin’ wit a Cain Muzik / Utopia Music Group release, here: Mista Cain Louisicain 2.5 (The Mixtape): Hurrican + Suga Cain + Cocain (Hosted by DJ Ya Boy Earl). I have a feelin’ tha review gon go over pretty nice, but one thing that keeps me from takin’ this serious iz, where’d all tha mixtape views come from for this random rapper? Start Time: 4:57 PM | End Time: 6:15 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!

01. DJ Ya Boy Earl Intro

Glad to hear him again after tha Percy Keith CD… >>> Good to hear Earl, but it’s quiet without a beat… My Rating: N/A

02. “Sippin’ 4 My Niggas”

I don’t get this title; sounds like an obsession wit so-called ‘friends,’ which in my whole life of living, I’ve neva understood how dudes can take other dudes so serious. Meanwhile, they’re like, “Dudes always hatin’ on me,” in songs; I don’t get it! >>> Beat sounds nice and ‘90s, here… A lot of consistent rhymes, here; almost sounds a lil’ like Gates, here, wit tha delivery. Tha hook’s catchy, but I still don’t understand it. I also don’t get when people ‘pour’ out for dead people, too… Nice rhymes in tha 2^nd verse, too; I like tha “we used to piss on tha same mattress… Wow, this breezed by; nice and short! No filler at all! My Rating: 4.6

03. “Bullet Proof”

People still like playin’ wit guns? >>> More ‘90s vibes; good thinkin’ of tha producer! Not bad wit tha 1^st verse, here; sounds good, but how come no one in Louisiana’s a virgin? Hook’s a lil’ random wit tha “pussy” shit… Endin’ from Earl, here; sounds like tha outro ran too long… Too many gaps in-between each message, but it’s good ta hear him. How’d he know about/get cool wit you, Mista? My Rating: 4.0

04. “Luv Head”

Random. >>> This iz more mainstream from tha previous two jointz… Also, tha delivery’s a lil’ on that boring, mainstream, Rick Ross-type… Can’t deny tha hook, as it’s entertainin’. It was a decade ago ‘round New Year’s Eve where because of Christina Aguilera & Lil’ Kim’s “Can’t Hold Us Down”, I asked my dad what “head” was. Luv how tha hook iz so simple by repeatin’ tha title! And, nice outro from Earl, real quick! He must’ve gotten “head” before sayin’ this outro ‘cause it sounds like he’s in tha mood! Also, good length! Not too long; basically, you told what you had ta tell in under three minutes! My Rating: 4.7

05. “Tear It Down” Feat. Lil’ Boosie

? >>> Sounds consistent; good shit from Boosie on tha 1^st verse, here… Also, tha hook sounds nice; almost sounds familiar, too… Tha beat sounds real nice durin’ tha hook; real Baton Rouge sounds! Here you are on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit good rhymes. I dunno about rappin’ about “stacks,” though; everyone does that, and it’s where they become homosexual! Anotha real-short song that’s length iz perfect! It’s all about givin’ people a nice, quick taste! My Rating: 4.4

06. “Lay Down”

>>> An Earl intro; good voice fa this intro… Also, Ashes CD? “May 14”? Goes to show you it ain’t important for me if it’s two months later, and I still don’t have it, smh? Talk about no one makin’ me a priority in Louisiana! Think it’s time for me to move on? Anyway, glad Earl still screams, “Chicken & Watermellon!” Wow, tha song’s over already? Didn’t really leave any feedback, but it sounds nice. Beat’s nice and whateva you spit sounds good fa tha short length. My Rating: 4.3

07. “Pussy & Mouf” Feat. Lil’ Phat & Ken On Da Track

Random, again… >>> A Webbie/Bun B “Give Me That” (or Snoop Dogg/Pharrell/Uncle Charlie Wilson “Beautiful”) sample in tha background… Beat sounds nice and laidback, as well as tha five-minute length on tha track… We got Lil’ Phat on tha 1^st verse… Nothin’ special; just flows wit this okay topic wit these random lyrics… Here you are on tha 2^nd verse… A lil’ betta, since you have more-descriptive lyrics than Phat’s typicalness… Must be Lil’ Ken on tha 3^rd verse… Weak start wit tha “money,” but some of tha sexual lyrics sound good, here. Guess he anotha dude that don’t have trouble wit sex, either? Wit tha remaining length left, I assume there’s an outro from Earl? Or, iz this Lil’ Ken on tha 4^th verse? Can’t tell who was who; this sounds more like him… If it iz, tha fast rhymes are good, though some of tha lyrics are startin’ ta get boring toward tha end wit tha “Bandz A Make Her Dance” quote… My Rating: 4.2

08. “Retaliation”

What about virginity? >>> I assume tha whole CD’s produced by Lil’ Ken, but there’s an official beat tag here… I’m feelin’ tha ‘90s vibe in tha beat, once again, as well as this ‘90s-soundin’ Louisiana rap wit this male sample on tha hook! Nice rhymes on tha 1^st verse, here; can’t deny ‘em… Tha 2^nd verse sounds like a mix of a lot of shit, between “bitches” eating your “cock,” mixed wit tha “cops”? Weird, but interestin’ mix ta rap about… My Rating: 4.3

½time: I have to go get (and/or eat) my dinner, right now. It’s 5:17 PM, so I finna go make tha ½time of this CD my intermission… But, so far, I’m likin’ what I’m hearin’. Seems like you’re becomin’ more experimental wit your sound; I really like tha ‘90s vibes… Hope they keep continuin’! Currently, you’re at a 4.4 for tha CD rating!!!!

09. “Kiss My Hustlin’ Azz” Feat. Yung Pymp & Ray Vicks

I had to put my dinner (a slice of pizza) in tha toaster oven, so 10 minutes from now, I must get it. Anyway, three years ago, I had a great idea for you when I was talkin’ to you about doin’ a commercial for you. However, you neva hit me back wit any details, and tha idea has not been used. Did you forget about me? We gotta be doin’ business soon, right? Can’t forget about those that were on your shit from back in tha gap! >>> “I just do this shit fa fun;” not really tha best perspective wit makin’ music. Like Sade says, you should only make music when you have somethin’ ta say! I do… That’s why, I release, like, one song (and music video) a year, it seems like! I hate all these so-called underground rappers that claim they’re ‘busy’ by bein’ in tha studio all day, all week, puttin’ out novelty shit. Anyway, what pure garbage this iz, OMG!! Beat’s an original producer (Young Hustla?), and it’s got a mainstream, Rick Ross-like sound to it? I can’t stand this “stacks” shit; not tha shit I wanna hear!! After gettin’ robbed two years ago from a BR artist, tha “stacks” should be kept in tha vault and neva to be talked about!!! So, wit that bein’ said, you had a real bad 1^st verse… First time hearin’ Yung Pymp on tha 2^nd verse…; ehh, why am I commentin’? Ray on tha 3^rd verse, here… I dunno about people still clutchin’ on their “40,” though… Why do people luv ta get into drama wit people? Doesn’t make sense at all, but off this weak song, Ray had tha best verse, and it was ehh!! My Rating: 1.2

10. “U Go Learn”

“Go” or “Gon”? >>> Noooooooooo, why a jacked beat (old Jeezy)? I thought you had producers? SMH, this iz what you waste your time on? Jacked-beat songs? Random hook/title; a lil’ catchy, but it ain’t an original production! Why I ain’t gettin’ a “shout out”? Do I have ta fuck a girl in front of your face? Some things, I can’t do, at tha moment, such as get to Louisiana. Deal wit my patience!! My Rating: 3.2

11. “Hard As I Go” Feat. Mouse On Tha Track

Tha Track, not Da… >>> How’d all these collaborations happen? I thought you were just a random rapper… Anyway, good sound wit tha beat, and Mouse sounds real catchy wit this hook and tha title! See, “stackin’ dem endz” doesn’t sound so pathetic when Mouse says it… I’m really feelin’ his verse, here; very catchy delivery and voice, as always!! Here you are on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit some rhymes… “You can suck my son dick;” “you” have a “son,” already? Wow, talk about fast—a lil’ too fast? I know you’re younger than me, too! Honestly, bein’ a dad lowers your consistency in tha rap game ‘cause you have ta focus on bein’ a dad, if you’re a good dad! Anyway, why an unsourced dude on tha 3^rd verse? I feel bad for them that they not gettin’ proper credit… But, it’s an okay verse; it ain’t bad, but not spectacular… Once again, nice beat from Mouse! Now, lemme go get tha pizza, as it’s a lil’ over 10 minutes later! My Rating: 4.5

12. “Where I Be” Feat. Level

Had to eat tha slice of pizza, since I don’t type wit greesy hands; I ate it from 5:32 – 5:54 PM, so that was a long intermission… Anyway, random feature, again; when he gon thank me for tha awards I sent him? Still, six months later and not even a word… I even tried textin’, too! Not to mention, he sucks at texting (people still don’t know how ta text in 2013???) and makin’ people a priority! See, tha thing wit me iz that, tha reason why a lot of people so-called ‘treasure’ me iz ‘cause I show luv to 1,000s of artists. I treat all artists equal, unless they’ve had a problem wit me. So, I think Level needs to work on EQuality, hence tha caps! >>> Switchin’ it up wit a G-Motivation beat, this time… Why tha “tatted” start wit Level? Obsessed wit “bitch-ass niggaz,” or whateva he said? Hook’s ehh; if Level’s “easy to find,” how come he don’t answer my texts? No contradictin’ rhymes!! Even on tha 1^st verse, here… Lyrics are not for me at all, but tha vibe iz what saves this from bein’ garbage. Here you are on tha 2^nd verse… It’s okay, also… “Smack you wit this bottle of Moët;” why attack someone wit a bottle? More shit from Level on tha 3^rd verse… A lil’ catchy, but why does everything have ta be “easy” and above-positive? When will people rap about sucking at things, such as their struggles that aren’t typical? Despite all tha criticism, I gave this a good rating. My Rating: 4.3

13. “Thinking Of U” Feat. Keedy Black & Yung Pymp

Bounce vibe? >>> Oh yes, it iz! Anotha good ear for your sound, and tha hook sounds nice… Can neva deny bounce music! Here you are on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit okay rhymes… Too bad you threw “stacks” in this verse; why does that have ta do wit anything? No need ta ruin it! Keedy comin’ through, next, soundin’ good on this beat… Jumpin’ to Yung Pymp on tha 2^nd verse…; not bad, here… My Rating: 4.3

14. “Purple In My Relo” Feat. Percy Keith & Young Troll

What’s a “Relo”? >>> Not sure who’s tag was in tha beginning, but tha sound sounds nice and southern… Tha hook sounds good, here; all about tha “diamonds.” Here’s tha 1^st verse from Percy Keith, and it sounds consistent. Here you are on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit some drug-related shit. “I gotta grind fa my people;” I still can’t connect how dudes care about other dudes…, like, in their circle? I thought everyone hated each other? Here’s this newbie (Young Troll) on tha 3^rd verse, comin’ through wit random shit… A lil’ bit of a ‘90s baby perspective wit also talkin’ about “stacks,” but whateva… My Rating: 4.2

15. “Mind Right” Feat. DJ B-Real & Young Ready

I hope there’s no money-related rhymes in here! I swear, I might choke up if I hear it in this collaboration! *Exhales nervously 4x* >>> J.Scalez beat, here… A song about gunz… Sounds a lil’ like Ray Vicks’ song wit Lil’ Phat “Nobody Move” wit tha “nobody move” part… Anyway, hearin’ tha hook from B-Real, and tha SFX are nice!! “Blaow, chicka-blaow, chicka-blaow!!” Whoa, Young Ready randomly came through on tha 1^st verse, here, comin’ through wit a nice, gangsta vibe, as well as a great attitude!! Glad he comin’ through wit anger! Here you are on tha 2^nd verse… Sounds good; did you become a dad to be cool/fit in? Either way, you flowed through nicely on tha track… I have to admit, I guess by bein’ nervous, it helped ‘cause finally, A SONG WITHOUT ANY LYRICS HAVIN’ TO DO WIT MONEY!!!!!!!!!! Now, that’s what I call a JACKPOT!!! Even no hoe-related lyrics, too!! My Rating: 4.9

16. “Mad At Cha”

Final song… >>> Sounded like a good start ‘til tha Tupac quote/beat started soundin’ like Tupac’s song of nearly tha same title (“I Ain’t Mad At Cha”). It “ain’t” bad… Speakin’ of “Gus,” I wish he wouldn’t’ve hated on my R.I.P. “Wne” video; bad taste in my mouth! Since that, I don’t do random tribute videos anymore, unless I get paid for it; my work cannot go disrespected! Then again, you wonder why I interned at a news station, was a master, and have a legacy there… Well, only one verse, wit a long outro, followed by a Ya Boy Earl outro… Sounds more like a “Free” and “R.I.P.” dedication. Now, “R.I.P.” to Black Roy. :( My Rating: 3.9

Overall: Finally got ta review this CD… Most of it was really good and really experimental! Only joint that failed to capture my attention was #9. Wasn’t too into tha jacked beats, but they weren’t horrible… Tha collaborations were pretty nice, and that B-Real one toward tha end surprised me! It’s all about character when deliverin’ rhymes/emotions! Whether or not I’ll find/hear Ashes, here’s this review to carry on tha weight…

Review #1,301: IL Duce "Do U Kno IL Duce"

Reviewed on 7.08.2013 (Review #1,301)

After a nice #MTVJams00s marathon all weekend of tha music I grew up with from 2000 – 2009, it distracted me from payin’ attention to anything. Now that it’s sadly over, I’m back wit tha reviewz: IL Duce Do U Kno IL Duce iz what I’m kickin’ today off with; let’s see how it goes! Start Time: 3:55 PM | End Time: 4:28 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! After I was robbed by an artist who claimed they “get money,” hearin’ about how much you “got money” and anything “money” really bothers me. If you have not done business wit me before, I won’t tolerate “money” talk in tha music!!

01. “Intro”

Mod beat. Looks like there gon be some rappin’ in this intro… >>> Jumped right in afta a quiet beat intro… I like tha “fuck tha game up like I was Kardashian” line, lol… And, “I suck-cess” was interestin’… Tha 2^nd verse iz pretty nice, too! My Rating: 4.7

02. “Everywhere I Go (Like Ooohh)”
Paperboy beat (Twitter: @PaperboyGMBW). >>> You havin’ an orgasm in tha beginning? Not lookin’ forward… Not all tha way a-tune on tha hook, but tha hook has trashy lyrics!! This iz lyrical? No “stacks” shit and “downloadin’ my song” fa me, as well as these F-rated lyrics!! Okay, it picks up wit your 1^st verse, but because my reviewz are like school assignments, every part of tha song has a grade! Tha 2^nd verse iz also pretty consistent… If tha verses turned out shitty, I prolly would’ve rated this a 1.0. But, because you did a good job, tha rating’s pretty nice!!! My Rating: 2.5

03. “Howell Park”
B-Bangerz beat; same as Max Minelli “Angel Sing”, it looks like… >>> A long start wit screwed vocals… Now, a regular voice: Sounds good, especially it bein’ “tha first day of Summer.” That, actually, iz my birthday. Though it passed recently, it’s been a shitty “Summer,” so far; nothin’s happenin’, and gettin’ somewhat of a break wit goin’ on a trip has been fucked up. It’s like, what else could go wrong? 1:41, and tha 1^st verse iz finally here… Sounds good… 3:47 on tha length, and only one verse? That’s different… My Rating: 3.9

04. “Facial” Feat. CRIM!

Same producer, once again… >>> Beat’s on a typical, boring, mainstream-like, trap music (not tha genre, tha rap music) style… Sounds okay wit you on tha 1^st verse… All tha “Free Boosie” gets repetitive when it comes ta others sayin’ it. It’s not like they’re payin’ for his jail services… Hearin’ this new CRIM! dude on tha 2^nd verse… Okay for a newbie, but damn, does any rapper, especially new ones, not get “hoes”? Shit gets boring after 1,000,000x… My Rating: 3.5

05. “Bizness” Feat. Max Minelli

Mod on tha beat, here… >>> Sounds like a real nice beat start, and tha hook’s pretty to-tha-point… You’re on tha 1^st verse, and it sounds good. An okay verse from Max; a lil’ boring with these lyrics… My Rating: 4.0

06. “Breathtaking” Feat. Matt G
B-Bangerz beat. >>> An okay beat and hook. Soon as I heard tha a-tune in tha ‘new’ dude’s voice on tha 1^st verse, I sadly assumed he likes suckin’ dick ‘cause of that shit, smh! When will people think straight? Good lyrics from you on tha 1^st verse, but this’ll neva capture me ‘cause of tha a-tune…, in 2013, still? That’s so 2007 (maybe, 2008, too)! MySpace dayz!! You still on MySpace? Good lyrics in tha 2^nd verse—short 2^nd verse, though I’m startin’ ta dislike random fastness in tha deliveries… Gettin’ “hoes” iz easy again? I guess that’s how newbies have ta come wit it to gain attention? Don’t get it! My Rating: 3.1

07. “She’s A Rider” Feat. Mod Productions
Mod beat. >>> This iz off to an okay start, too… Hearin’ tha hook for tha 2^nd time, and it’s not for me at all. Why everyone gotta get boring “stacks” and announce it in music? It’s almost like they’re announcin’ that they’re good at bein’ gay, smh… My Rating: 3.2

½time: A decent start, so far. Some shit sounds a lil’ mainstream wit tha content, so far… 3.6 for tha CD rating, currently.

08. “Ya Look Good” Feat. CRIM!

Mod beat, again. >>> Catchy song fa tha hoes, this time, wit this vibe… Lyrics from you on tha 1^st verse are ehh, but tha vibe’s here… Here we go wit tha new artist on tha 2^nd verse… Everyone’s sex drive goes duffy at 12 or somethin’? Either way, this wasn’t too bad for a song… My Rating: 3.8

09. “Vocabulary”

Repeat songs? My Current Rating: 4.7

10. “Momma Prayed”

Mod doin’ tha beat, once again. >>> Not really my kinda style wit this topic, but it sounds nice wit tha beat and how you come through wit it… It’s bad enough I’m tryna do good business wit someone, and their “momma” comes up in tha conversation often, hence tha last time I talked to them. Was tryna get them to see me, and their brother, in tha passenger seat, was like, “Gimme tha phone, I wanna call mommy.” Like, wtf? No offense to moms—especially since I live with mine and always talk to mine, but I can’t take no dudes serious, after age 12, that bring up their “momma” often. I say that ‘cause I’ve always was picked on for bein’ close to my “momma,” so to see others talk about their mom in their 20s/30s, etc., like, really? Anyway, back to tha song… Why’d it get quieter durin’ tha 1^st verse? Tha verses are still good, though. My Rating: 3.7

11. “Put It Down” Feat. Keith Jacobs

I easily remember tha titles… My Current Rating: 4.3

12. “Room 326” Feat. S. McKnight

S. McKnight on tha feature; why was tha LiveMixtapes uploader anti-S. McKnight? My Current Rating: 4.1

13. “Neva Goin’ Back” Feat. Dee-1

Wow @ tha oldness… People could’ve lost their virginity by now! My Current Rating: 3.3

14. “Stardom”

Endin’ wit an EQ beat. >>> Good, but I don’t get tha “deal;” I don’t get why it’s worth somethin’. All it does iz make Kevin Gates more evasive wit gettin’ in touch wit me to do business, which does nothin’ for me payin’ my loans! Good and consistent rhymes in this one and only verse… Why’d it almost fade out toward tha 2:00 mark? Anyway, no filler here! My Rating: 4.5

Overall: Prolly could’ve subtracted tha newbies… Also, tha old songs are in tha past. Anything before December 14, 2011—death of my cousin and 27 dayz after I got robbed by a BR artist—should neva resurface! Some of this was decent, but you still have tha potential as a lyricist, so that’s good.

Rankings:

Review #1,300: Percy Keith "Compliments Of Luca Brasi (Hosted by DJ Ya Boy Earl)"

Reviewed on 7.04.2013 (Review #1,300)

Up next, Bread Winners Association’s Percy Keith Compliments Of Luca Brasi (Hosted by DJ Ya Boy Earl)… I’m walkin’ into unknown territory, here, so I dunno what to expect. Start Time: 9:35 PM | End Time: 10:19 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.

01. “Intro”

Produced by EQ. >>> Nice intro from DJ Ya Boy Earl… He wasn’t listed as a host, but I gon put that he’s hosting this CD… Anyway, this sounds good, but you sound too much like Kevin Gates. Finally, no beat tag in an EQ beat; that’s tha way it should be, with tha back cover sayin’ who produced it! Also, gotta mention that tha beat sounds nice and interestin’… Anotha good part from Earl, outta nowhere; great voice ta host/DJ… Here you are on tha 2^nd verse, still wit a Kevin Gates sound, but I like tha paranoid/intensity in your voice! Yes, an outro to Earl. SMH @ “mixtape;” when will people put albums out?! My Rating: 4.2

02. “Deep Cover”

Dr. Dre production? You mean, jacked beat? >>> Yea, no need for tha producer listed, here! Earl on tha intro again; gotta luv him! Sounds a lil’ different wit tha voice, at times, but you still got some Gates in you… Rhymes are nice, but because of Gates, I’m not diggin’ this random fast-rappin’ shit, outta nowhere… Despite not likin’ all tha fast deliveries, I’ll give this a better rating ‘cause of how good tha rhymes were. My Rating: 4.3

03. “Soldier Hatin’” Feat. Flow & Christian Radke

EQ beat, again. SMH, why does tha ID on tha mp3 say, “YMCMB”? Now, I could prolly care less about this! >>> Why tha beat tag, this time? This beat doesn’t sound Louisiana at all, smh… Tha 1^st verse sounds very mainstream wit this beat; no interest… Uh, after tha gay-soundin’ vocals on tha hook, I just am skippin’ this! Got no time! I’d rather masturbate! My Rating: 1.0

04. “I’m Nasty”
Boo on tha production; looks anticipatin’… >>> Nice and creepy sound wit this beat; interestin’ production! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse, and tha rhymes are just okay… Tha hook sounds catchy; I can hear your Kevin Gates influence (or dickriding) in it, but I like it. Tha 2^nd verse also sounds okay, fa me… Despite some of my negative feedback, I’m feelin’ this one a lot… My Rating: 4.4

05. “Clutchin’” Feat. Blvd Mel & Banger

A Turn Up beat; not sure who that iz… >>> Nice intro from Earl! However, tha beat sounds nothin’ like Louisiana, so it must be jacked or whateva… Tha hook sounds okay; let’s see how this continues… That was tha 1^st verse? Now, tha hook? Sounds betta wit tha “jungle.” Tha 2^nd verse must be you, with all these random references… Catchy; I can’t deny it… Tha 3^rd verse sounds nice, too… Outro from Earl! My Rating: 4.0

06. “The Business”

Heisman beat; nice connection… >>> Still, why tha beat tag, smh? Tha flow’s aight, but it’s soundin’ a lil’ mainstream, mixed wit other peoples’ sound. This beat ain’t too bad, but now that tha hook came on, it sounds real catchy… Nice and short, tha way you can provide, quickly! My Rating: 4.2

07. “Hoes”

No producer listed, so it must be jacked… >>> Ehh, “Girls, Girls, Girls,” smh… At least it’s short and not no five-minute shit that others provide… Nice hook wit tha “hoes, hoes, hoes,” instead of, “girls, girls, girls.” Nice X-rated shit, Kardashian style, lol. My Rating: 4.0

½time: Other than #3, this sounds like a catchy CD, and you sound like a real catchy artist… Because of #3, tha CD rating iz only at a 3.7, so far, but I’m likin’ it betta…

08. “Guns N Roses”

Guss beat. >>> Between tha okay beat, it sounds like a good lyrical start in tha life of Percy Keith! By being born in 1984, I hope you gon do good business wit me… Tha hook sounds catchy; good title… My Rating: 3.9

09. “Free Boosie” Feat. Donkey

EQ beat; ??? @ tha title… Donkey not listed on tha back cover… >>> What? A Lil’ Wayne sample and he cares about “Boosie”? No way!! Boosie a Louisiana artist; Wayne a poor example of reppin’ Louisiana!! “I’m on my feet, like a big toe;” ironic you said dat ‘cause I’m rubbin’ my “big toe” against one of my other toes ‘cause there’s skin around it (biting nails, get it?)… Hearin’ this Donkey dude on tha 2^nd verse, and it sounds nice and Louisiana… Despite a dude dying or not, I can’t imagine a dude crying ova anotha dude! I’ve neva cried over a death… Then again, 25 years in, and I’ve neva had a friend I’ve known in person die. My Rating: 3.8

10. “NY Here I Come”
Bet you won’t come ta Long Island! Boo beat… >>> Good start; doesn’t sound like Boo at all, on tha beat… But, it has an interestin’ sound to it… Hearin’ a lotta ‘90s “NY” rap quotes in tha 1^st verse, here… From Biggie, to Wu-Tang, to Digable Planets, to “ODB,” to “Roxanne,” to Big Pun, to Nas, to Public Enemy, to “Queen Latifah,” The Furious Five, and more! My Rating: 4.1

11. “9’s” Feat. JR

Guss beat. >>> Catchy beat; interestin’ hook wit tha “cleaned ova.” Oh, thank God, this iz a different JR on tha 1^st verse (“JR Johnson”)! I thought I had to skip tha verse, due to personal reasons! But, this JR dude sounds catchy; nice lil’ Louisiana sound in tha voice! Hearin’ you on tha 2^nd verse, and it’s soundin’ slightly-Gates-y… “Bitch, I’d rather masturbate;” lol, glad we’re on tha same level wit masturbating, lol! Tha JR dude’s back on tha 3^rd verse? Good sound, once again… My Rating: 4.1

12. “My Nigga” Feat. Money Boi

Red On The Track beat; looks like a whammy with tha feature, for me… >>> Beat doesn’t sound too Louisiana fa me… “Kevin ain’t gon change fa me;” why he ain’t on this CD? What’s up wit tha censored dude’s name on tha 2^nd verse? Kinda makes an imagination go wild… Either way, iz this tha Money Boi? Looks like it’s anotha win for me! I thought I had ta skip anotha verse, but it’s good… Either way, I don’t approve of anyone’s name with “money” in it! More Money on tha 3^rd verse? My Rating: 3.7

13. “Stories”

Decky Boy beat; 2011 beat? >>> Decky Boy? More like Rihanna “Unfaithful”? Odd that a dead rapper/producer would be mixed with “Unfaithful”… Anyway, despite tha jacked beat, this iz okay; not really for me, though. I like how you mentioned you bein’ born in “1984” on tha 2^nd verse, though. My Rating: 1.7

EDIT: I randomly was harassed by someone tryna steal Decky Boy's name. For those that don't know who tha real Decky Boy iz, it's this dude, who passed away two years ago:

14. “Let’s Fight” Feat. Wild Yella & Show

Not sure how good this gon be wit tha features and with no producer listed… >>> Nice intro from Ya Boy Earl, despite it bein’ a bonus track… Likin’ tha hook; sounds nice and hype… If only tha beat was a lil’ more hype, this would be real nice… Tha 1^st verse sounds good; Shreveport at its finest… Good job, Yella… Must be Show on tha 2^nd verse, here; good “fighting” perspective… Let’s get to tha 3^rd verse… You sound good; it’s an okay verse… My Rating: 3.9

Overall: I have to say, for hearin’ a whole CD of yours for tha first time, I thought it went over pretty well. There were two wack jointz, but other than that, this turned out to be good! CD rating’s average, due to those two wack jointz, but there’s plenty of good jointz on this mixtape!
