My
bad for delayin’ this for hours… My uncle came over to visit, and I’m freaking
out about tha place I interned at ignoring me and not hiring me, 18 months
later! It’s almost like Gunplay leavin’ Maybach Music Group and then, 18 months
later, labels not answering/Gunplay never
bein’ signed; it’s a terrible,
losing-star-power feeling I’m goin’ through. :( But, lemme try and get my focus
off that… Next up, a review for a mixtape released back on January 1, 2011: DJ Fletch & Gunplay Inglorious Bastard: The Prelude To Valkyrie; let’s see what we
got, here…!! Start Time: 8:49 PM | End Time: 9:50 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!!

intro wit that beat!! My Rating: N/A
02.
“Rollin’” Feat. Waka Flocka
Ooh…
>>> I’m diggin’ how you comin’ through on tha hook! “We gon be rich
one day! Lay it down… Gunplay!!” Whoo!! Hearin’ you on tha 1st
verse, and it sounds like you’re copying Jim Jones’ “ballin’” adlib, a lil’;
it’s at least catchy, in a way… Got Mr. Waka Flocka Flame on tha 1st
verse, or wait, here you are, lol; y’all comin’ through nicely! You really have a lotta energy in your
system, Gunplay; dumb shit!! Okay, now, Waka Flocka on tha 2nd
verse, comin’ through wit okay-to-listen-to rhymes; I just like how he sounds, though
he neva caught on like crazy, fa me. I kinda liked him that first year he was
hot (2010), but he’s neva had crazy success wit me… Yea!! Here you are on tha 3rd
verse, comin’ through wit coolness; feelin’ tha energy in tha delivery!! “It
takes two ta rob base;” nice!! My

04.
“Walking On Water” Feat. Rick Ross & Triple C’s
Lemme see, here… >>> Ooh @ tha beat! Even got Ross on tha intro… Ross startin’ it off wit tha 1st verse, and though I’m not really inta him, this sounds good ta listen to. Ross ain’t stoppin’, here; luckily, it ain’t annoyin’ me, though it kinda long when there’s 2:15 left, and I still have ta hear from you & Triple C’s… Okay, finally, seconds later, Torch’s here, on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit some good shit; gotta be on dat mission! Ooh, Young Breed on tha 3rd verse, analyzin’ that “they changin’ channels;” feelin’ this shit! Finally, here you are on tha 4th verse, comin’ through wit dat energy, again, Gunplay!! “Feed tha apes (feed tha apes), feed tha apes!!!” My Rating: 4.3

beat. Okay, let’s see how this fuckaholic
Ross does on tha 1st verse… Some drug shit, but then again, can I
believe it? Here you are on tha 2nd verse, wit tha “arm & hammer
in my Hannah Montana” shit; nice! I know somethin’s similar’s in “Bible On The
Dash”! Got Young Breed on tha 3rd verse, here, comin’ through like a
“Lil’ Denzel;” gotta luv this dude!! Glad he so focused, here!! “A deck of spades;” nice! Got tha 4th
verse from Torch, here, comin’ through wit a nice, motivational vibe ta be on a
mission fa cake! My Rating: 4.2
06.
“On My Lap”
Gotta
hear this one!! >>> Sounds great
wit tha beat start, so far!! Kinda reminds me of a “Bible On The Dash”
vibe/anticipation wit this “on” shit! Hearin’ tha hook, and it’s all about tha
“cash;” very catchy hook fa tha
streetz!! Gotta have it “on [ya]
lap!” Good shit on tha 1st verse; your character comin’ out, and I’m
glad you a crazy dude!! Definitely feelin’ your crazy
vibe/character on tha 2nd verse; you really lettin’ a lotta shit out!! Also, nice wit tha “empty loaded bananas” delivery!! Tha 3rd
verse’s nice, too; you really comin’
through wit dat entertainin’

through wit dem “splinters in [your] toes;” ouch! Good shit you got goin’ on
wit this verse! LOL @ tha hook wit Ross & Diddy; diggin’ it! It’s that
typical, supastar status-soundin’ content, lol! LOL, Diddy deliverin’ a verse
on tha 2nd verse, here… Of course, he doesn’t stop generatin’ money;
feelin’ his perseverance, lol! Of course, Ross on tha 3rd verse,

10.
“Money In My Pocket”
Oh,
I recognize this… My Current Rating: 4.1

“Sell Out Of Everything” Feat. Triple C’s
Anotha

well as tha hook, lol? Great energy; iz it Torch? Can’t 100% tell, but they
doin’ tha damn thang! Yea, even “buckin’ in this bitch” and “get buck”? That’s totally Buck; nice intimidation? Here’s
a “boot up like computers” dude on tha 2nd verse; Murphy Lee? Wow,
I’m really confused, lol… ROFL, oh, it’s you on tha 3rd verse;
