I’m
actually doin’ a 2nd review today! And, it’s somethin’ that was
released this week! I’m off tomorrow, so I have time to get to this! Sponsored
by Trill Entertainment, Bad Azz Entertainment & Atlantic Records, this
review iz Boosie Badazz, f.k.a. Lil’
Boosie, Touch Down 2 Cause Hell. I can’t say I’m excited for this
review, due to too many insecure people Boosie deals with, but I figured I’d
get this outta tha way, while I can! And, for those of y’all in Louisiana that
don’t know, exactly three weeks ago, on Mother’s Day, my 25-year-old brother
died of a (most-likely) heroin overdose in my studio room, on May 10, 2015.
Pretty sad moment, though I’ve been strong to get past it… But, I’m still on
tha grind, each month, but I have a lot of my own video projects to focus on… To go with tha weird vibes for this CD’s
anticipation, I gon start tha CD review at my ex-friend, Tyler’s birthday time, 10:14! Start Time: 10:14 PM | End Time: 11:20 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 (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

01.
“Intro – Get ‘Em Boosie”
Produced
by Black Metaphor, here; lookin’ forward to this “intro!” >>> Almost
didn’t expect it to be a song; instant start, here… As always, a nice delivery
from you and some regular rhymes ta hold it down… My Rating: 4.2
02.
“Window Of My Eyes”
Roc
& Mayne on tha beat, as well as Ke’noe; let’s hear this for tha 1st
full track, here! >>> Likin’ tha beat, though this feedback may be a
guilty pleasure, since you have so many dickriders… Regardless, at my job, I
feel like I’m you, and people get jealous! Like, if anyone says anything about
me, a whole army stands up for me! I wish that was tha music business to me,
but at least it’s at my job! Tha 1st verse sounds good with this
lyrical song. Hearin’ tha hook and it’s real catchy with how you deliver it!
Tha title didn’t give me anticipation, but tha way you say tha title sounds
real great! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and that was a nice heartbeat
throughout tha beginning of tha verse! Lots of rhymes on this verse; feelin’
it, at times, though I’m gettin’ distracted, here and there… My Rating: 4.3
03.
“Mercy On My Soul” feat. Jeezy & Akelee
Almost
thought that was Adele on tha feature… Anyway, Ke’noe & Samuel AsH on tha
beat, here… >>> Sounds like a nice mainstream, street beat to start
this off and it’s off to an aight start with this vocalizing… Hearin’ you on
tha 1st verse and you sound pretty nice on this beat. Tha hook’s
really dry with just random vocalizing. Like, I can just picture all dudes
takin’ this shit soooooooooooooooooooooooooo serious, while it’s just straight
for me. Like, don’t rub it on me!! Got Jeezy on tha 2nd verse, here,
and it’s aight, as well… His voice/delivery ain’t as catchy as it was back in
tha day, but it’s still straight. Hearin’ you on tha 3rd verse and
it sounds nice with these lyrics. Do you feel grown for 32, or do you still
feel like a kid, in a way? I’ono, but I still feel like a kid at almost 27, but
publicly feel like an adult, at times. But, for tha most part, it’s a kid at
heart! My Rating: 3.7
04.
“Like A Man” feat. Rich Homie Quan
LOL,
takes me back to tha winter, and Music Choice Rap loved this one… Of course,
Mouse On Tha Track doin’ tha production and it’s catchy, though I lol @ dudes
for goin’ crazy at this one! Great job with tha verses and lol @ Quan with his
parts! “Like a man…;” instantly think of my girl, Amanda!! Like, I would keep repeatin’ that in my head:
“Aman…Aman…Amanda!!” Especially with deer in tha road this season?! Yeah! Like,
Quan’s funny when he has that “like a man…” part, especially with tha “was a
virgin” part! And, of course, nice beat from Mouse, holdin’ shit down!! My Current Rating: 4.4
05.
“On Deck” feat. Young Thug
I’ono
why you would wanna collab with this gaylord… A year later and people still
buzzin’ about him? Then again, who gives a fuck about this music business,
anyway? P-Lo on tha track… >>> Definitely a hot beat start but I can’t
take that gaylord serious on tha hook! Kinda throws tha quality of this track
off! Like, it almost feels like you were interested in dick for 10 seconds at
one point, Boosie! But, lemme see what you got fa tha 1st verse,
Boosie… Okay, catchy flow; definitely focused and have a lotta energy on this
track! Hope Thugga don’t have a verse, here… Ooh, just my luck! Here you are on
tha 2nd verse, Boosie, comin’ through with tha consistent rhymin’!
Nice job; gotta feel it! I’ll let tha gay Thug slide, this time. He’s aight to
listen to, but his image iz terrible! Can’t believe people look up to him and
take him serious!! To me, “Stoner” & “Danny Glover” was good enough. No
more of his name and all these appearances! My Rating: 4.2
06.
“Retaliation”
London
On Da Track doin’ tha beat; I believe tha video just came out? Music Choice Rap
got this not too long ago, with barely any spins, compared to “No Juice” &
“Like A Man”! An okay song, though good enough to enter my playlist. However, with
my brother dying outta nowhere, I don’t think I have much heart left to play a
lotta tha newer songs on my playlist. Most of ‘em are prolly gonna flop ‘cause
of this tragedy. But, as far as this, interesting police noise in tha
beginning. Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and I dig how tha beat kicks
in, at tha same time… Feelin’ your dark, street rhymes! And, tha hook’s pretty
catchy with how you say tha title; nice job! Wouldn’t’ve expected this to be a
single, but it’s a risk… And, tha 2nd verse sounds good ta hear,
too, as you keepin’ tha street content goin’! My Current Rating: 4.3
07.
“No Juice”
Whooooooooooooooooooooooo!!
LOL @ Mouse doin’ tha beat and his, “Dat Me,” just comin’ outta nowhere, on
Music Choice Rap. Catchy hook and all that, though I neva played it ‘cause I
had “Like A Man” in rotation. My Current
Rating: 4.4
08.
“On That Level” feat. Webbie
*Sees
producer’s name, gets thrown off & laughs* Wow, I thought it would’ve been
DJ B-Real or someone, but wow, Abbytastic!! That’s my manager’s name and that
name just shines bright! So, without further or do, Abby “Samir” Urbina on tha
track! I’m actually lookin’ forward ‘cause of tha “Abby!” >>> Readin’
on Wikipedia and they say that this was released as a single last year? No one
got it, but I’m diggin’ this fast beat start!! Ooh, go Abby!! Almost thought I
was expecting a bounce beat, but it’s more on a DJ Mustard style, as far as tha
production goes. Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds pretty good
with what you spittin’, here, for a single… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s real
catchy; diggin’ your voice, tha dark beat, and how you deliver this shit!!
Hearin’ Webbie on tha 2nd verse and he’s just a random, Trill-type
appearance, as of lately. I dunno about these rhymes; kinda mediocre…; can’t
stand tha “money” rhymes! Anyway, on to tha 3rd verse, here, and it
sounds nice with how you sound, on tha 3rd verse. You kinda sound
feminine, here, with tha voice? I honestly feel like it sounds like a different
feature! But, either way, what an impressive 1st listen for tha Abby
producer!! My Rating: 4.3
09.
“Hip-Hop Hooray” feat. Webbie
Knucklehead
on tha beat, here; let’s see… >>> Catchy hook and a nice beat, here;
diggin’ how you celebratin’ “Hip-Hop,” here! Hearin’ tha 1st verse
and it sounds good with how you bringin’ tha street content! Hearin’ Webbie on
tha 2nd verse and this sounds better than how he came on tha
previous song… Feelin’ tha Baton Rouge
vibe he bringin’ to tha table… Now, back to you on tha 3rd verse,
here, and it’s soundin’ good… I like how you ended tha 3rd verse
with, “You got dat $4 bill fake shit,” when it came to describin’ how tha game
be so fake! I can agree! There so many pussies in tha game, here; it’s not even
funny! Those that ain’t get B-Real to unblock me are tha biggest pussies and
most-disappointin’ people I’ve eva met
in my life!! I would neva support
them, anymore, and hope I milk them outta they money, one day!! My Rating: 4.1
½time: A pretty consistent CD,
so far; good job, Boosie! You’re at a 4.2 for tha CD rating, currently; keep holdin’ tha
streetz down!
10.
“Mr. Miyagi”
Beat
Billionaire on tha beat; kinda don’t like that name of that producer…
>>> Nice beat; definitely diggin’ it! Hearin’ you on tha 1st
verse and it’s pretty nice; a catchy title, here! Hearin’ tha hook and it’s
pretty nice with how you say tha title! Kinda feels like I’m in China with tha
name? Like how it’s just a title part and that hot beat plays throughout tha
hook! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and you’re comin’ through pretty gutta,
here; nice! Just luv how you deliver with a passion in your voice at all times! My Rating: 4.4
11.
“Black Heaven” feat. Keyshia Cole & J. Cole
Not
really anticipatin’ tha features and this seems so mainstream… Ke’noe &
Samuel AsH on tha beat. >>> Yeah, this a lil’ on tha slow side, here…
This more of a song dedicated to tha fallen souljaz… I know my brother just
died, but still, this ain’t exciting for me. Even with my brother gone, I still
wanna live in tha exciting moments, tha high life & all that! Hearin’ tha
hook and it’s nice from Keyshia; it fits with tha sadness of a death, at least…
Nice rhymes from you on tha 2nd verse; gotta feel it… It’s like, can
only imagine what my brother thinkin’, right now? He prolly really appreciated
by all tha support we’ve been givin’ him, over tha past three weeks! And, tha
autistic hater, a.k.a. J. Cole on tha 3rd verse, here, comin’
through with his usual, real-life rhymes… My
Rating: 3.6
12.
“She Don’t Love Me” feat. Chris Brown
Anotha
feature I’m not anticipatin’; can’t stand his ugly and actin’-all-grown-ass…
Anyway, BJ Beatz on tha beat. >>> Kinda boring, here, for a start,
between tha beat and CB on tha hook… Damn, background vocals from Chris on tha
1st verse, here? Weird with him and here you are on tha 1st
verse, comin’ through with some mainstream-soundin’ rhymes; whatev… Here you
are on tha 2nd verse and it’s decent; I know nobody gon remember
this joint in tha long run, though… My
Rating: 3.2
13.
“All I Know” feat. PJ
Kane
Beatz doin’ tha track, here… >>> Doesn’t sound like my kinda joint in
tha beginning with tha beat start, but it sounds a lil’ nice? Oh no, a female
on tha hook? Ehh, don’t think “I” gon feel this that much… Hearin’ you on tha 1st
verse and it sounds much betta with you rappin’ ova this beat… Diggin’ your
timeline of events, here; nice way ta deliver! Really not diggin’ this hook
with this female and her “money” shit, like, really? Hearin’ you on tha 2nd
verse and it sounds more hilarious with how you deliver this. Like, you and
“Cut Her Off”’s hook part always sounds nice to hear… Tha 3rd verse
aight; not likin’ tha cockiness in tha beginning with tha “money” shit and how
you like to impress dudes or some shit… My
Rating: 3.0
14.
“Drop Top Music” feat. Rick Ross
A
very unanticipating 2nd ½? Another
feature I’m not lookin’ forward to and not only that, Big Wayne doin’ tha
production, here? Iz this why I don’t hear from him anymo—oh yeah, Dunkin’!!!
That’s tha answer!! That “Abby” changed my life March 14, 2014 & tha music
world has never been tha same since!! It sux ‘cause I get money now and no
one’s around! Oh well, I’ll just focus on myself only, these dayz… >>>
Beat sounds pretty good, for a start. Finally, a lil’ bit of a Louisiana sound and less
of a mainstream sound, despite this feature! Ooh @ tha beat at :23; really
hypnotic and crazy with that one lil’ sound!! Nice job with tha 1st
verse, Boosie! Oh, iz this just gon be a Ross sample on tha hook and not an
official feature? If that’s tha case, then I can get past this Rick Ross on tha
feature. BTW, tha hook’s catchy; definitely nice! Good job wit tha 2nd
verse, too; pretty consistent with this ridin’
vibe! Oh, not what I wanted: Ross on tha 3rd verse; ahh… Even when I
was lovin’ Gunplay’s “Kush” song with Lil’
Wayne & Ross. Instantly, I was like, “Shit, Ross on this!” However, that
became a huge anthem for me and I got through it! I might be able to get
through this ‘cause really, it has a good vibe. As far as Ross goes, he kinda
here and there over a faster beat. Of course, can’t deal with tha “money”
rhymes and all that bullshit, but this still somethin’ nice! My Rating: 4.5
15.
“Spoil You” feat. T.I.
A
lil’ better with tha feature, but just a lil’, though… Ke’noe doin’ tha track,
here… >>> Back to tha slower vibes… Ehh, not really diggin’ tha hook
except when you say tha title, in a demanding way. I can’t deal with “money”
rap and these “bands” ain’t doin’ it fa me! Hearin’ T.I. on tha 2nd
verse and it sounds aight; no feedback on his “spoil” to women… And, you on tha
3rd verse, here, comin’ through fa these ladies… Ehh, this iz too
boring fa me; I’d rather hear X-rated shit! Like, cumin’ and nuttin’!! My Rating: 2.6
16.
“How She Got Her Name”
J
Reid on tha beat… >>> Nice lil’ beginning; that lil’ chant part sounds
like somethin’ I’d invision while high! Tha 1st verse sounds good fa
tha rhymes, but this beat’s pretty dry, for a regular pace. Like, goes good
with Kanye West or someone, instead? Diggin’ this lil’ chant on tha hook; wow,
sounds like hunger music for while you’re high!! That whole thing with “tha
palm trees…!” Tha 2nd verse sounds pretty nice, too, with this story
you spittin’. I’ll let this one slide as far as a different-soundin’s ong. And,
tha 3rd verse’s soundin’ nice, too. Prolly could’ve been about 30
seconds shorter for this song, overall, but it’s still nice to hear. I’m gonna
be generous with this rating! My Rating:
4.1
17.
“Kicking Clouds”
Ke’noe
on tha beat, again. >>> Sounds like music that would define sad times
of my brother passing for tha intro, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it sounds like
Kid Cudi’s kinda music. As far as you spittin’ ova this kinda shit, it’s
decent, but it brings out somethin’ positive in me, while hearin’ this. I think
that positiveness iz celebratin’ by “smokin’ weed,” just like how you
introduced tha 1st verse! Nice job with your rhymes and your
middle-finga attitude! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it ain’t too bad…
Sometimes, tha beat reminds me of tha first few seconds of “Walk Thru”. I can
feel tha vibe of “roll one fa my nigga,” though I can’t picture myself rollin’ up a blunt, takin’ a geeb hit,
or pourin’ somethin’ out fa my brother. I still can’t connect all that with
anything, at tha moment… My Rating: 3.8
18.
“Hands Up”
J
Reid on tha beat, again. >>> Kinda slow and boring? I like tha dark,
street-soundin’ beat but I don’t think it matches with tha “hands up” content…
Tha 1st verse only aight, fa me… Hearin’ tha hook and it sounds
good, but it’s really slow… Tha 2nd verse ain’t too bad; I ain’t gon
brag-brag about this joint, overall… My
Rating: 3.8
19.
“I’m Sorry”
Endin’
it with tha Abby producer!!! No DJ B-Real, thank God!!! Instead, it’s an Abby!!
What a way for a manager to come in and do tha damn thang!!! But, I have a
feelin’ this gon be a soft track… >>> Abby slowin’ down? Just what I
expected for an ending track; not really fuckin’ with tha sorrow on tha beginning… Like, as of September 14, 2013, I let it
be known that I’ll neva be “sorry” fa
anything! Whateva happens, happens! Even with my brother! He got into a fight
with me tha day before he died about takin’ him to go get heroin or somethin’.
I denied him ‘cause I worked so many dayz in a row and was busy! I don’t regret
not drivin’ him to his fatal dose! Wow, from such an uptempo Abby beat to this,
there’s really, like, no life in tha beat! I can understand its purpose, but
what a transition! Still, not bad with tha verses, here, as far as tha content,
but this way too dry. Great for an ending song, but too dry! Tha deep house
music I’m listenin’ to in tha background while reviewin’ this sounds more
upbeat than this, and that music’s for sleeping! My Rating: 2.9
Overall: I have to say, haha to
B-Real for not appearing on here, despite “Heart Of A Lion” & “Crazy”
comin’ out last year! Maybe, B-Real shouldn’t owe people like me $400 and feel
more honored when people like me go and spend $1,524 on his stolen equipment to
get it back! Yeah, legendary moves like that deserve more attention, not
blocking me and all that unprofessional bullshit!! But anyway, I thought you
did a nice job with this CD! Nothing too striking, but it had a good run… It’s
nice that you’re gettin’ tha mainstream appeal and gettin’ your respect. Hope
you continue to stay consistent!
