official, tho; can’t deny tha consistent, fast rappin’! At least tha way you

“B.O.D.”
Producer:
Brent Dixon
>>>
Beat ain’t too bad, here; sounds like Brent likes tha New York sound? Hearin’ tha 1st
verse from what you got goin’ on & it’s okay with tha rhymes; consistent
rhymes but just an okay song fa me, so far… Finally, I’m hearin’ tha hook &
it sounds okay; sounds like you’re a lil’ depressed? Tha title stands as tha
title track of this album, “Better Off Dead”, accordin’ to tha
hook… Hearin’ tha rest of this shit & it sounds okay; you keepin’ tha
consistency goin’ with tha rhymes, at least… Sounds like a lotta hook parts, toward
tha end; I think it’s a lil’ too much? It’s not like it’s a bounce chant… My Rating: 3.3

>>>
Sounds like a dope lil’ 1st verse & beat, here; definitely nice

then-radio show, “Tha Louisiana Pit”; good tymes! Continuin’ on with tha 2nd
verse, here, comin’ through with a nice set of consistent rhymes & vibes,
here; gotta dig that flow, too! Nothin’ but catchiness oozin’ outta it! Hearin’
tha 3rd verse & tha aggressive, fast-paced rhymes are too hot to
be stopped!! Gotta dig this to tha max!! Also, a really quick outro! My
Rating: 4.6

1st verse from you & it sounds good with your story-like rhymes;
I digz it… Hearin’ tha hook from this Tonya girl…; sounds like motivation but

Anyway, keepin’ this thang movin’ with you on tha 2nd verse, here,
comin’ through with good rhymes, once again; let it be known fa dem streetz…!
Hearin’ mo shit come outta this with tha 3rd verse, here, soundin’

“Don’t Love Ya”
Producer:
Brent Dixon
>>> Sounds a lil’ more like a West Coast-soundin’ production from Brent, this tyme; not bad, includin’ this semi-catchy voice from your hook, here… Keepin’ it goin’ with tha 1st verse, here, soundin’ consistent with tha rhymes; good shit!

“A Beast”
Producer:
Full Pack Productions
>>>
Sounds like a good lil’ beat & how you comin’ through on this 1st
verse, here; props, Decky…! Hearin’ tha hook & it cool; again, gotta
respect how you come through with tha different flows with your voice. Hearin’
tha 2nd verse & it sounds like a good lil’ verse; almost doesn’t
sound like you, here, even tho there’s no features listed… Keepin’ this thang
movin’ with tha 3rd verse, here, soundin’ like a good continuation,
once again. I hear tha “1976,” here; props fa shoutin’ out your birthyear, day
& all that. Also, a nice lil’ beat ta end this, as well; glad you continued
ta stay focused, especially your producers! My Rating: 4.2
Overall: Great job with this, of
course; Decky, you were destined for that undaground success! Can’t believe
you’ve been gone almost a whole decade, now! I’m real glad you were able to
express as much as you could with this album; your street content, consistency,
flows, rhymes, tracks will definitely
be remembered!
