Let’s
keep these reviewz goin’… Here comes G-Money
Ghetto Drama, Vol. 1: Who Can I Trust,
released in 1999 on Money Talks Records! This his 2nd release; not
sure why this iz Vol. 1, tho… Start Time:
3:21 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 sound like anything too mainstream for me, have
auto-tune in your vocals, or talk about nothin’ but money (which I consider
‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

Dope piano in tha beat, here; nice lil’ intro! I agree wit tha “don’t trust

“I Represent Ma City” feat. Prophet
Producer:
Wydell “Fingers” Spotville
>>>
Sounds pretty dope wit this beat, as well as how you comin’ through, on tha 1st
verse! Sounds like you improved your flow/voice since tha last CD…! Nice lil’
hook, here; great lil’ collab, as this continues… Hearin’ tha 2nd
verse and it’s soundin’ like some good shit fa tha streetz, once again…! Tha
rest of this shit pretty nice, as y’all keep tha street shit goin’… My Rating: 4.3
03.
“Me Or You”
Producer:
G-Money
>>>
Sounds like a slower vibe; not too bad, for tha 1st verse, here… Tha
hook sounds sad, with this “you used to be my homie” & all that… Tha rest
of this ain’t too bad, tho I’ono how much I’d dig this one, due to I’m not
‘bout dat depression shit… My Rating: 3.0
04.
“Copz” feat. Lucky Dogg, NRG & Warloc
Producer:
G-Money
Didn’t
I review this on tha last CD of yours? Only with this, it’s a “z,” not an “s,”
in tha title… Also, looks like me on tha feature? It’s not, tho… >>> A
45-second intro, here; sounds good wit this beat, as well… Hearin’ tha 1st
verse and it’s pretty nice, as tha consistent rhymes are comin’… Tha hook
sounds a lil’ catchy, here, despite it bein’ about “Copz.” Hearin’ tha 2nd
verse and it’s soundin’ okay, here; more consistency wit tha rhymes, too… Got
tha 3rd verse comin’ at me, here, soundin’ good fa tha undaground,
as well… Feelin’ tha attitude from tha dude on tha 4th verse, here, comin’
through wit tha rest of tha fam… My
Rating: 4.0
05.
“Got Me On Tha Run”
Producer:
Wydell “Fingers” Spotville
>>>
Sounds like a nice lil’ slow vibe, here, fa tha ‘90s’ dark side… Hearin’ tha 1st
verse and it sounds good; feelin’ tha laidbackness… Tha hook’s pretty nice;
it’s tough dealin’ wit this bullshit we gotta go through ta get our freedom
back… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s soundin’ okay; don’t wanna feel
depressed, tho… Tha 3rd verse ain’t too bad, as well; not too much
my style but it aight… My Rating: 3.6
06.
“Who Can I Trust (Street w/Intro)” feat. Krazy & Toot
Producer:
Wydell “Fingers” Spotville
>>>
Nice lil’ intro ta get myself ready fa this one… Beat sounds good; a lil’
laidback, once again… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds good wit
how tha crooked streetz be… Tha 2nd verse ain’t too bad, here, even
tho this iz slowly soundin’ boring, with tha flows… My Rating: 3.5
07.
“Sittin’ In Tha Penn” feat. Knowlege & Lucky Dogg
Producer:
G-Money
Oh,
five dayz of tha damn “penn” was enough! Even tha LD on tha feature, fa this
title! >>> God, I’ono if I can tolerate this; sounds too depressing
with tha “cell!” Likin’ tha melody, as it sounds like it samples somethin’, on
tha hook. I’m glad I finally got tha
“9 – 5,” as well as it bein’ durin’ tha night! Took a while to get tha right
job and now, I’m dealin’ wit tha “sentencing,” just as what you’re talkin’
about, on tha 1st verse… Just as tha 1st verse hit home
fa my current situation, here comes tha 2nd verse, soundin’ pretty
rough, as well… Got tha 3rd verse comin’ through, soundin’ pretty
rough, once again… “Shmokin’ weed […]; man, those were tha times.” I can’t wait fa those “times” of tha good
ta come back…, ASAP!! Stayin’ patient, fa now, as I get through this
nonsense… Now, usually, this shit wouldn’t be for me but because I’m goin’
through so much, I might rate it higher than I would expect to rate it… My Rating: 4.2
08.
“I Get Bucked” feat. Menace & Tru-Thug
Producer:
G-Money
>>>
A hyped-up hook & vibe, here; sounds good… Hearin’ tha 1st verse
and it’s soundin’ nice fa tha 5-0-4, here… Whoo @ tha 2nd verse!
Feelin’ tha hyped-up flow & faster rhymes! Got tha 3rd verse,
here, soundin’ like a regular-soundin’ flow/verse; not bad… My Rating: 4.2
½time: For tha most part, this
sounds like a good CD. A lil’ depressing, at times, even tho we’re here to get
through tha depression! A 3.8-rated CD, currently; how will we continue?
09.
“This World” feat. Gavin, Menace, Skandulust & Tru-Thug
Producer:
Wydell “Fingers” Spotville
>>>
Back to tha depressin’ vibes… Sounds like a neva-changin’
“world,” wit tha hook’s content; I’ono… Got a different voice on tha 1st
verse, here, soundin’ okay… Tha 2nd ½ of tha 1st verse
sounds better wit tha flow; definitely consistent… Why an edit to “fuck
niggaz,” at 1:45, on tha 2nd verse? Pretty gay… Anotha edit, too,
smh! An okay/good verse, regardless; just ain’t like tha random editin’…
Hearin’ tha 3rd verse from a female, here, soundin’ nice… Damn, this
whole track edited? I ain’t even pay attention to tha beginning, due to I
always think everything’s explicit… Tha 4th verse okay, here; flow
kinda boring, tho, as it’s a regular-paced flow/voice… My Rating: 2.7
10.
“It’s A Dirty World (Freestyle)”
Producer:
Wydell “Fingers” Spotville
>>>
Sounds like a good lil’ beat, even tho it reminds me of tha west, a lil’…
Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it ain’t bad, here… No hook, here, as it’s
a freestyle; a 2nd verse iz here, tho… Hearin’ tha 2nd
verse and it a lil’ betta wit tha flow/soundin’… My Rating: 3.7
11.
“Tryin’ To Get Paid”
Producer:
Wydell “Fingers” Spotville
>>>
Sounds like an okay hook/vibe, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s
not bad, here… This track sounds a lil’ borderline between okay and not for me,
tho, depending on tha “struggle.” Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it str8,
here; can’t say too much… Tha 3rd verse’s pickin’ up tha slack from
tha other verses’ vibes, with some consistent rhymes, here… My Rating: 3.3
12.
“Bounce Nigga Rock” feat. Lil’ Rob & Shuga
Producer:
G-Money
>>>
Hearin’ tha hook and it sounds cool fa a lil’ dancin’ song… Tha beat’s pretty
nice, here, as well as tha energy on tha 1st verse… Got tha 2nd
verse from a chick, here, soundin’ nice ta hear wit her energy… This vibe’s
givin’ me a “Make ‘Em Say Ugh” vibe, so props fa tha energy… Tha rest of this
sounds nice; at least there’s a club banga on this CD, finally… My Rating: 4.3
13.
“Vengeance”
Producer:
G-Money
>>>
Cool lil’ beat, here… Hearin’ tha verse and it sounds like a gangsta story…
Pretty rough; I’ono how much I can tolerate tha sad content, tho… My Rating: 3.6
14.
“My Ghetto Family” feat. Geediboy, Knowlege, Lil’ Rob, Lucky Dogg, Mizz Hyde,
NRG & Prophet
Producer:
G-Money
>>>
Sounds like a nice lil’ beat, once again… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and
it’s pretty nice; gutta-soundin’ street content, here… Not too bad wit how Mizz
Hyde appears wit her rappin’, here, as this shit keeps tha rhymes comin’…
“Rhymes” and them hittin’ “like a
uzi;” good shit! A lil’ too long fa a song wit no hook fa me, here… My Rating: 3.1
15.
“Niggaz Wanna Get Him” feat. Lucky Dogg
Producer:
Wydell “Fingers” Spotville
>>>
Sounds like some good production, as well as tha nice lil’ catchy hook… Hearin’
tha 1st verse and it’s pretty nice, as this shit goes on… Got tha 2nd
verse goin’ on, here, soundin’ pretty nice, as this continues… Tha 3rd
verse sounds good, here; can’t complain wit what y’all bring… My Rating: 3.7
16.
“Who Can I Trust (Radio Edit)” feat. Krazy & Toot
Producer:
Wydell “Fingers” Spotville
See #6 fa tha review…
17.
“I Did What I Had To” feat. Southern Girlz
Producer:
Wydell “Fingers” Spotville
>>>
Sounds like a good lil’ beat; almost sounds a lil’ more mainstream? Hearin’ tha
1st verse and it ain’t bad… Once again, anotha rough song about life
behind bars… Hearin’ tha hook from tha chicks and it sounds okay; kinda a
guilty pleasure? I also think they sound like 702… Tha 2nd verse
ain’t too bad, here, as this progresses… My
Rating: 3.5
Overall: Mainly, a laidback,
struggle-soundin’ CD that wasn’t too bad fa me. Nothin’ really too spectacular
but at least this brings more to tha Louisiana
collection…
