It
started gettin’ cold last night, so I just went to sleep and watched Last Days Of Left Eye on VH1. But now,
time for anotha Gunplay review!!
This one was released on January 18, 2013, off tha Maybach Music Group label,
of course: Cops & Robbers! Looks like we on a mission ta run and rob, so I’m definitely lookin’ forward ta hearin’ this one!! Start Time: 11:07 AM | End Time: 12:08 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
Here
we go!! >>> Thought it was country-soundin’ in tha beginning, but it
sounds like classic rock; very random… My
Rating: N/A
02.
“Bet That” Feat. Pusha T
Now, here we go!!
>>> Glad you “beat a life sentence,” though I don’t see why tha value
of your “sentence” was “life;” it’s not like you murdered anyone… Anyway,
sounds like a catchy hook from you, here! “And, you could bet that!” Reminds me
of Trick Daddy’s song of tha same name from 2006, wit how you deliver tha hook!
Here you are on tha 1st verse, comin’ through wit that real shit, not that “make-believe” shit!
Here you are on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit some mo good shit,
too! “Gotta overdose;” yea, “overdose” off this good shit ‘cause you constantly drop hot shit! Let’s hear “King Push” on tha 3rd verse, here…
Nice and consistent wit how he comes through wit it! Great collaboration! He neva ages!! My Rating: 4.3
03.
“Hold Me Back (Remix)” Feat. Rick Ross, French Montana,
Yo Gotti & Lil’ Wayne
A
remix, here; let’s see what we got… >>> LOL @ tha no listed features,
like tha previous mixtape! Rick Ross on tha 1st verse, comin’
through wit okay rhymes, though tha beat’s boring/typical-soundin’… Tha hook’s
bleh; Ross on his repetitive shit, though I heard this from somewhere, once
before. Here you are on tha 2nd verse, and I can dig your repetitive
deliveries; they sound catchy! Here’s Mr. “Ain’t Worried About Nothin’” on tha
3rd verse, comin’ through wit catchy shit. I dunno why, but knowin’
that that song’s so played out, I think he does great wit guest appearances!
LOL, Mr. “Cocaine On Delivery” (Yo Gotti) on tha 4th verse, comin’
through wit dat good, southern, gangsta shit! ROFL, Lil’ Tunechi on tha 5th
verse, comin’ through wit a “chick” wit some “cramps,” lol… Rhymes are kinda
simple/yada-yada… My Rating: 3.5
04.
“Drop”
Okay,
let’s hear this one! >>> I like your drum sound effects in tha
background, here, on tha intro! Ooh @ when tha 1st verse came on;
pretty good wit how you come through on it!! Tha hook sounds catchy, too; you
and tha “sack!” It’s all about dat loud/good shit! Diggin’ tha 2nd
verse wit all tha “who…” parts! Great
job wit tha 2nd verse; good job wit this joint, overall!! My Rating: 4.4
05.
“No Church”
Interestin’
title; “Bible On The Dash”-like? >>> Oh, you must have aggression on this one if it’s one of DMX’s beats from
tha late ‘90s! Hearin’ tha hook, and it sounds catchy; prolly need a lil’ more
aggression, so let’s see… Okay, pickin’ up throughout tha verse; feelin’ how
you comin’ through on this track wit what you “got!” Pretty nice, overall! I
like how you said it was “for tha cops” at one point, before tha end! My Rating: 4.2
06.
“Definition Of A Plug” Feat. Yo Gotti
I
like titles like this, especially collaborations like this!! >>>
Nice-soundin’ beat, includin’ tha deep/screwed-soundin’ voice on tha hook!
Great content!! “Drug life!” Hearin’ tha 1st verse from you, and
yea, “can’t” come through “soft” wit anything “soft,” either; it’s all “hard!”
Here comes Gotti on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit all dat good
“plug”/drug shit! And, a 3rd
verse from you, comin’ through live from tha “kitchen!” I like how you said,
“Mr. Cocaine, baby;” ain’t that Yo Gotti’s title? Oh wait, you qualify, too, of
course! My Rating: 4.5
07.
“I’m A Shooter” Feat. Alley Boy
Lemme
hear this! >>> Catchy beginning wit dat Alley Boy dude; nice shit!
“Brrrrr, stick ‘em;” nice!! Good shit
from him throughout tha 1st verse, here; he holdin’ tha streetz
down!! Ooh @ how you startin’ tha 2nd verse wit, “Stick a
muthafuckin’ for…;” catchy delivery
in your voice, right chea!! Great job; y’all definitely did a nice job
on this joint!! My Rating: 4.6
08.
“Clique (Remix)” Feat. Rick Ross, Rockie Fresh & Big Sean
Lookin’
forward ta hearin’ this, I think? Well, maybe just for tha Rockie Fresh collab…
>>> Not a fan of Ross on tha 1st verse, but I’ll admit that
he comin’ through consistent on this beat. Hearin’ tha hook, and I thought I
recognized this title (Big Sean song); guess I’ll throw him on tha feature,
too? Here you are on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit some good
shit; feelin’ what you say on tha track! Time for, what I like to call, Mr.
“They Ain’t Wit Tha Twitter Shit; They Are Not Gon Type You”, lol
(“Headquarters (Freestyle)”). Somethin’ about him that sounds catchy on tha
voice; surprised I’m three years older than him. Either way, gotta feel him!! My Rating: 4.4
½time: So far, so good; gotta
feel this mixtape, too, of course!! A 4.3 for tha CD rating, currently; you know what it
iz!!
09.
“Good Kush (Triple C Mix)” Feat. Triple C’s
LOL
@ tha no “C’s”, but just a “C”… Either way, I recognize this title, and I know
it ain’t “Kush”, but it still looks anticipatin’!!
>>> Oh, redoin’ Lil’ Wayne, Drake & Future’s “Love Me” track; luv how Young Breed’s on tha hook!!! His
“good kush” must be powerful!! Almost
didn’t think this was tha actual “Love Me” beat—I guess ‘cause it’s so quiet on
tha hook—but, it iz, and it sounds great! Ooh, “Gunplay” comin’ up next? Shout
out ta this DJ on this track! Here comes tha 2nd verse from you,
comin’ through wit a nice start to tha verse wit tha “horoscope!” Yup, wit
Gunplay: “Every word he say iz true;” I agree/co-sign! Tha 3rd verse
ain’t too bad, here; Torch comin’ through by “puttin’ you in tha soup!” My Rating: 4.5
10.
“Ball (Remix)” Feat. Rick Ross
Tha
T.I. track? Lookin’ forward, N.O. style? >>> Yup! I hear a Ross in tha
beginning, so I assume he’s featured… For only 2:07, it’s kinda boring ta have
Ross all ova this… Only 40 seconds of you… I’m feelin’ your delivery and what
you bringin’ here iz catchy. LOL @ “she let me pee in her face;” that’s some true gangsta shit, right there!! My Rating: 3.1
11.
“Daddy” Feat. Trina
Let’s
hear this! >>> I like how it has almost tha same vibe as tha “Ball”,
in tha beat! Great/catchy hook!! And, you on tha 1st verse sounds
great, here; good, party shit! Here’s Trina on tha 2nd verse,
supplyin’ tha track even more; nice! Ooh, a 3rd verse fit from you,
comin’ through wit some good shit fa tha hoes! My Rating: 4.5
12.
“Ghetto Bird”
Likin’
tha title, here… >>> Startin’ off by continuin’ from tha previous
joint, as tha DJ introduces tha next joint, here… Sounds like some old,
G-Funk-soundin’ beat from tha West Coast/‘90s, with somewhat-weaker quality.
Either way, I’m diggin’ this vibe from you, comin’ through wit an interestin’
drug story, here! My Rating: 4.3
13.
Ross Speaks
>>>
Transitionin’ from tha same beat. Yea, “Gunplay a different kinda artist… he
don’t care about awards;” true, same here! Though, I like him a lot betta than
you, Ross! My Rating: N/A
14.
“I’on Beg”
Yes,
some “I’on” talk, here! >>> And, some of dat “Nuthin’ But A “G” Thang”
beat, here; sounds good and consistent wit what you comin’ through wit, here!
No need ta “beg!” Nice hook; no need ta “beg;” I now no longer apologize! My Rating: 4.1
15.
“The Hard Way”
Kinda
what I’m dealin’ wit, right now, as far as not havin ‘a job and havin’ only
$200 left… >>> Catchy hook; yea, “they finna learn this shit tha hard
way!” Consistent rhymes, here! I like how you said, “Hoes goin’ bizzerk,” and
tha other shit right afta that! Lots of consistent rhymes, here, fa only one
verse!! “Middle finga in ya madre;” luv it!! My Rating: 4.5
16.
“Ghetto Symphony” Feat. A$AP Rocky
Lookin’
forward ta finally hearin’ this! >>> Nice start wit tha sample on tha
hook! A$AP on tha 1st verse, comin’ through wit good, consistent
rhymes; not bad… I enjoy listenin’ ta him, though Music Choice: Rap still
playin’ “Fuckin’ Problems” over all tha Gunplay songs ain’t what’s up, fa me!
Here you are on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit some good shit;
feelin’ tha consistent, kick-ass rhymes!! My
Rating: 4.3
17.
Outro
Had
a feelin’ it was just an outro, here…
>>> A movie skit; nice, and fuck tha “cancer!” Huh? We have 40 seconds
of silence? My Rating: N/A
Overall: Nice job wit this
mixtape, too! Only one more left ta review from you! Hope you drop dat Living Legend soon!
