Review #1,860: Juvenile "Being Myself (Remixed)"

Reviewed on 11.28.2019 (Review #1,860)

Got so much shit goin’ on, as I try to keep it together…! Just gotta keep prayin’ fa betta dayz…! Fa now, here goes my next review, in my Louisiana Reviewz Marathon: Juvenile Being Myself (Remixed), released in 1999 on Warlock Records & was produced by M.A.T.E.! Due to being all messed up, anything I previously reviewed’s just gettin’ a current rating. Start Time: 2:16 PM | End Time: 2:26 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!

01. “If You’re A Player”
>>> Sounds like a ‘90s hip-hop/R&B vibe, here, in tha beat… Hearin’ tha hook and it sounds good, fa a playa anthem… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it sounds like you’re holdin’ tha party down, as always… You deliverin’ tha 2^nd verse pretty nicely, as well; good shit… My Rating: 4.0

02. “U Can’t Come Around”
>>> Sounds like a good lil’ G-Funk track… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it don’t even sound like you… Either way, it sounds good wit what they deliverin’… Tha hook sounds good; nice lil’ street anthem, here… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s good, despite it not bein’ Juvie… Lol, tha 3^rd verse sounds like some1 tryna wish fa you back? Weird, with this mysterious dude rappin’… My Rating: 3.9

½time: Not really you, Juvie, but a 4.1-rated CD, so far… I’ll say, this a nice lil’ gangsta-soundin’ LA shit from tha ‘90s, here…

>>> Lol, “Here’s an intro?” Thought this was an outro…? Still, it sounds nice fa somethin’ that sounds like an “intro.” My Rating: N/A

Overall: Not really you, Juvie, though tha repeatin’ tracks of Being Myself helped this be somethin’ worth it, I guess?
