Review #1,353: 1st Class Carson "F.A.M.E. II"

Reviewed on 12.08.2013 (Review #1,353)

Tha next CD I have ta review iz F.A.N. Entertainment’s 1^st Class Carson F.A.M.E. II! One of DJ B-Real’s boyz, let’s see what we got, here! Start Time: 11:49 PM | End Time: 1:20 AM

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!!

01. “Intro”

>>> Lil’ Tron doin’ a beat, here… Not really likin’ that there was a beat tag, here; beat tags are corny! Bad ta know that “gettin’ money”’s tha 1^st thing on your mind… I do like tha “gettin’ blunted” part, though. Rhymes sound catchy, here; you got a catchy voice, too! However, you do sound insecure with all this ramblin’ toward tha 2^nd ½ of this intro… It’s like, how do you ramble so much? An autistic person like me, that’s hard! A 2^nd verse, here… Oh, so F.A.N. Entertainment = Fuck A Nigga Entertainment? Weird that somethin’ explicit would be in a label name, as well as really negative. Tha funny thing iz that as negative as it iz, you prolly pull up to tha scene wit a bunch of dudes, anywayz, so as always, it’s a contradiction. Also, you only “21”? Thought you were near B-Real’s age, so it’s odd to know that I’m right in betwee tha both of y’all (25). As far as this “money” shit, if you keep braggin’ about it, I hope you promote this CD well by spendin’ some of that “money” on me makin’ you a commercial, maybe gettin’ a beat from me, and more! My Rating: 4.2

02. “Youngin Year”
Not sure what ta expect… >>> Not really inta tha Lil’ Phat sample. Shouldn’t be there just ‘cause he died. Couldn’t tell who’s producin’ this, but this sounds nice, regardless! Just didn’t go for tha beat tag… Also, no features are listed on these filenames, so I can’t tell… Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse, and it’s pretty good ‘til you started sayin’, “gettin’ money,” a bunch of times… Ehh, but can’t deny this jam! I’m feelin’ tha 2^nd verse, too, but why do I always have ta hear shit about dudes hatin’ on otha dudes? Gets boring afta a while! Also, thumbs down ta tha “money long” line. Heard that kinda line earlier this year, and only made $40!! $40’s “long”? See what I’m sayin’ about how tha lines affect me from my past! My Rating: 4.0

03. “You A Hoe”
>>> Jacked beat, here, wit Juvenile “Set It Off” beat. “Carter”? Let’s see this, as it seems like a ½ blind review… If this iz a “Dhat Fam” song, then my anticipation’s pretty low! Will neva forget when Gus disliked my Wne tribute video! Yuck @ my past; gotta get away from tha music world! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse, and it sounds good except tha “money” shit. Damn, three songs in, and all three have a “money” reference? Can’t deny how this jams, though; likin’ that “middle fingaz up” on tha hook! Tha 2^nd verse sounds nice; exposin’ this “faggot,” lol! I also like how this dude disses “love songs,” too! Yea, kill that soft rap! Turned out ta be real good fa me, overall!! My Rating: 4.5

04. “No Pity”
>>> EQ beat. This has a lil’ bit of a slower vibe to it; okay, so far, with okay rhymes… Was this a stolen beat or somethin’? Hearin’ too many beat tags throughout this, which can get on my nerves… Gettin’ a lil’ gay toward tha hook wit tha voice; bad hook! Tha 2^nd verse sounds like a regular life from a regular person wit tha “textin’ my phone” shit. To me, that doesn’t differ a Baton Rouge sound; anyone can text! My Rating: 2.4

05. “This For My Niggaz”
>>> Really long intro of a speech that already has me unanticipated! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse, and this has a Baton Rouge vibe, but tha beat’s a lil’ too slow fa me… Almost thought tha hook was gonna sound bad. Tha voice almost hints gayness, but it just passes; pretty good… Tha 2^nd verse ain’t bad, here; sounds like this dude’s a fuck-up? My Rating: 3.8

06. “Write My Wrongs”
>>> Oh no! [Without sayin’ tha producer’s name, it’s time fa me ta act distracted!] Where’s my gurl, Halo, who can get me “faded”? Help!! Gotta luv her!! Anyway, to tha hook: Sounds catchy, from whoeva this iz. Tha 1^st verse sounds good; I’m likin’ all tha “same” rhymes: “same house … same clothes;” nice! I feel it! Tha 2^nd verse sounds like they try ta fit in. Tha “all my enemies” shit sounds like Tupac, and “locked up in tha studio” sounds like quantity ova quality… Then again, I like hearin’ this dude on tha 2^nd verse, so it passes, overall! My Rating: 4.3

07. “Quit Hating”
>>> So far, this sounds hot; kinda gives me that Uptown Allstars vibe from ’07! I like bars 11 – 12 in tha 1^st verse (I think it was those. If not, it’s 7 – 8); feelin’ tha flow! Tha hook sounds like an early 20-year-old’s vibe wit tha “suck a nigga dick” shit; definitely feelin’ tha attitude! Tha 2^nd verse sounds like Doodie Da Juvie… Good shit; he doesn’t sound like he should rap like everyone else, though, wit tha “hating” and shit… My Rating: 4.4

08. “Leave Me Alone”
>>> Can’t really relate ta this kinda shit. I neva lost anyone. Wow, this iz a complete contradiction ta me! Tha “money” shit, tha “phone games” shit, tha “glock cocked” shit, and losing people? 0% me, all tha way, but it sounds nice… Tha 1^st verse sounds like a good setup or somethin’. Tha “amnesia” / “will not forget you” line’s bad. People say they won’t “forget.” Meanwhile, I have tha fakest fans that have no idea what’s goin’ on with me… People neva remember anything about me, or wanna, smh! Tha 2^nd verse sounds good, too, mainly ‘cause of tha beat helpin’ this dude out. My Rating: 4.2

09. “It’s Over With”
>>> This “Carter” dude and you, 1^st Class… Good beat; sounds a lil’ different wit tha voice on tha hook, here… I guess this a good thing ‘cause I can’t complain, right now. I like tha “X-Box” part about how Carter “ain’t to be played!” Good 1^st verse! Tha catchy vocals from tha hook’s on tha 2^nd verse, here, comin’ through wit catchy street shit. I like tha “all you niggaz pussy; you got nine lives” part, too! My Rating: 4.3

½time: So far, most of this iz great! Tha production’s really on lock and on a Baton Rouge level, which I’m feelin’! Funny thing iz, I have no idea what ta expect wit each joint, as tha artists aren’t listed! A B-Real could jump outta nowhere, and I’d have a heart attack; I wouldn’t know, beforehand! So far, this CD’s worth a 4.0 for tha CD rating!

10. “Glock On The Dresser”
>>> Really likin’ tha beat start (Beat Geeks)!! This “Carter” dude again; I’m likin’ tha street content, here, too! Sounds like some bad “fake” shit to deal with; why does err-body gotta be fake? Glad Carter exposin’ ‘em! Anotha obsession wit gunz, here… Sounds like they’re anticipatin’ death, here? Tha 2^nd verse’s nice, too; almost sounds like a feature snuck in, as well! My Rating: 4.2

11. “Cut Up”
>>> Anotha “Carter” joint wit that Lil’ Tron dude on tha beat… Really feelin’ tha beat start; this sounds like it gon be a great gangsta joint! This sounds nice! I like tha “fuck you!” part on tha hook; shit’s tight! Tha 2^nd verse iz anotha exposin’-soundin’ verse; good shit! I like tha “broker than a zero,” but I can’t tolerate tha “I be gettin’ money.” I wish no one claimed they were “gettin’ money!” My Rating: 4.4

12. “Zoo”
>>> I ain’t catch tha tag in tha beginning; let’s see what kinda animals gon come outta here… Sounds like a catchy hook, as well as tha beat soundin’ hot! I like tha effect on tha voice when it says, “fuck wit my niggaz.” Catchy rhymes on tha 1^st verse, here, as well as tha delivery! Likin’ tha lyrics, too; “animals” iz right, just like I predicted! Ooh, some Wizard Of Oz references, too! Sounds like a young dude on tha 2^nd verse, here… It ain’t bad; no deal-breaker rhymes, luckily, such as “money, money, money!” My Rating: 4.5

13. “Dead Or Alive”
>>> Anotha tag I couldn’t catch; why iz there all these tags? Tha “Carter” dude again… I’m feelin’ tha production, as it’s nice and slow, on a Baton Rouge tip! Sounds like this Carter dude’s just waitin’ ta die or somethin’, wit his rhymes? Seems scary. Bad start to tha 1^st verse wit “a young nigga wit money;” not good! Hope some of that “money” comes my way, as far as a commercial or some beatz from me! Glad you expressin’ that “babies havin’ babies;” that’s what ruins a rapper’s focus!! Not inta tha 2^nd verse, so far; sounds like what every “dude” wants to be ‘cool,’ smh. Wow, endin’ wit “so hungry for my plate, that I ate my fuckin’ spoon!” Crazy! My Rating: 4.3

14. “Situations”
>>> More “Carter”… Sounds like a really loud beat intro… An okay song, but tha beat’s loudness iz a lil’ annoying. Tha hook sounds like a Lloyd sample? Nothin’ too special, it sounds like… Tha 2^nd verse has nothin’ special in it. I mean, I could prolly like these lyrics betta if it was a betta beat—without an annoying surround sound! My Rating: 2.5

15. “Grew Up With”
>>> More “Carter” with Mod Productions on tha beat… Ehh, don’t sing tha hook! Tha 1^st verse’s kinda boring—oh wait, tha only verse, accordin’ to this length… Not really inta tha “money” rhymes, again. Real short, but not tha worst. My Rating: 3.3

16. “Out My Top”
>>> EQ beat. Again, too many tags = a stolen beat? Why does every rapper in Baton Rouge have ta have an “ol’ lady”? Either way, not bad, but because y’all most-likely stole this beat, tha repeatin’ of tha tags are annoying. Tha hook’s nice, and I’m feelin’ tha energy, at least! Oh, looka here: Big World on tha 2^nd verse! Finally got one of tha features correct, but I won’t fix up all tha titles ‘til I know all of ‘em on all tha tracks! He can get away wit these kinda “throwin’ 1’s” shit ‘cause he a Down Bad affiliate! Good rhymes; I always feel how he comes through on tha track! Gotta luv ya, World! My Rating: 4.2

17. “Missed Calls”
>>> Lil’ Tron beat; yucky tag, again! But, good beat, it sounds like! Only 2:13 on tha length, so let’s see how much you can squeeze in, here… Ehh, too many girls. How you get all these girls? What’s wit tha popularity? Funny how you mentioned gettin’ “faded,” when I mentioned tha great song, “Faded”, earlier in this review! Tha hook sounds catchy wit tha “this fa all y’all who hatin’” shit. Even though I criticized tha girls beginning, I like this title. Though I like tha title, it’s prolly what every rapper in Baton Rouge should rap about ‘cause they’re good at ignoring people! Tha 2^nd verse sounds catchy, too, and I like how tha beat goes in tha background durin’ tha 2^nd hook! My Rating: 4.3

18. “PSA”
>>> I thought this was gonna be an interlude, but it’s a song… Beat sounds good/slower than usual, and it sounds like you havin’ fun or somethin’… Almost sounds like you’re attackin’ me (not directly) with, “Bitch, you 25, and you just gettin’ rims? Bitch, I’m 21…” Go’head and attack me wit a lot more ‘cause I’m “25,” and there’s plenty more of life I have to explore! Bein’ autistic, I grow slow, but I have two brainz! My Rating: 4.0

19. “Big Bank”
>>> Whoeva’s on tha 1^st verse, they sound great. Sounds like tha intro wit tha “still gettin’ money” and “still gettin’ blunted” shit; a lil’ recycled…? Gotta luv when y’all say, “Big bank take lil’ bank!” Little did I know that tha hook would have it, too; catchy… Bad 2^nd start wit tha “20 stacks in my jeans,” from whoeva this iz! Why haven’t I seen any? They should send me some “stacks” before they even attempt ta talk ta me ‘cause they should know how valuable I am!! Despite tha beginning of tha verse, I felt tha verse; they came through nicely! My Rating: 4.4

Overall: I thought this was a nice lil’ CD, courtesy of F.A.N. Entertainment! Though I wasn’t sure who tha Carter dude was, as well as some of tha features on here, 1^st Class Carson put together a nice lil’ disc! Feelin’ tha vibes, and there were some interesting topics on this CD! Keep survivin’ and hangin’ in there!!

Review #1,273: DJ B-Real "Pay Da Producer Vol. 1"

Reviewed on 2.06.2013 (Review #1,273)

Wow, OMG, we got a very special review I finna do, today! I’m video-taping tha whole entire thing!! We got Jigga House Records’ DJ B-Real Pay Da Producer Vol. 1!!! And yes, “da producer” should be paid, definitely! I hope B-Real’s makin’ lots and lots of money!! We tryna get this CD to have at least 5-figga digits in tha streetz—hard copies, I’m talkin’ ‘bout! There’s gotta be at least 10,000 Pay Da Producer Vol. 1s out there, ya feel me?! Ya heard me?!? And, what else can I say? I’m dyin’ ta hear this; props ta DJ B-Real for mp3in’ it to me!! Start Time: 2:33 PM | End Time: 5:24 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!

01. “Intro – Ready Or Not”

Produced by DJ B-Real!! You know I’m dyin’ ta hear this, right now!! Intro “or not!” Anything—135 seconds iz gonna get my heart racin’ because that’s 135 seconds of DJ B-Real!! Better than zero! So, let’s get inta this! DJ B-Real, lemme hear your voice!! >>> He means “that!” He always means “dat!” My favorite dude outta Louisiana, pretty much; Baton Rouge king! I luv when you say, “mean dat! Mean dat!” Let’s hear it! He’s lurkin’ err-where fa err-body; he gon “wake ya ass up!” “There ain’t no otha producer fuckin’ wit [DJ B-Real];” he definitely iz da truth!!! “Don’t give they ass a freebie;” definitely!! Keep that perspective, DJ B-Real!! I luv how we’re so hypnotized by Lauryn Hill and this sample! You did a nice job samplin’ The Fugees, B-Real, and you made it your own BR lil’ intro! My Rating: 4.4

02. “Who It Is”

I already know “who it is;” tha best dude outta BR! I’m definitely lookin’ forward ta hear this! It’s just, nothin’ but B-Real!! Givin’ him his lil’ solo space from tha Drama Boyz, here, and my heart iz definitely achin’ fa this, right now!! >>> Greg Dukes in tha intro, here…; whoo, a B-Real beat intro!! Ooh, I’m luvin’ this; I luv how you come through wit your hooks! How you sing them, and just doin’ it all by yourself, this time! You’re gettin’ credit also, luckily! “Bass steady knockin’;” shit yeah!! You know I’m definitely goin’ ham, right now!! DJ B-Real!!!!! DJ B-Real, all tha rhymes you’re spittin’, here, it makes you seem like you have tha best life in BR! Just, err-thang you sayin’ on this 1^st verse iz just tha shit! Cannot deny any rhyme, right chea!! Just can’t get enough of this hook; you definitely know how ta start a CD off right!! “Break it down!” You are “tha shit;” you can “brag or boast” about it, B-Real, ‘cause I fuckin’ luv you! You “da conducta”? Shit yeah! “Huh bruh;” I luv when you say, “bruh!” Just hearin’ dat from you just keeps me so motivated! Fuckin’ incredible!!! Ten years ago—a decade ago, 50 Cent had 2003 on lock wit all kinds of jointz! Now, 10 years later—2013, DJ B-Real gon be everywhere on my playlist and err-thang!! He [Greg Dukes] said, “10 years,” no less; knewe!!! How ironic!! B-Real Entertainment, but shout out ta Jigga House Records, too!! My Rating: 4.8

03. “Pay Da Producer” Feat. Big Wayne

Produced by Big Wayne & DJ B-Real!! Such a true song dat “da producer” should get paid! I luv tha flute sound in tha beat; y’all definitely did a nice job wit dat!! It’s such a demandin’ hook that there’s sirens goin’ off in tha background [outside]! DJ B-Real on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through real nicely, on this beat! I also like this part comin’ up, right chea: “Hard drives crashin’;” “as long as we got our mind and a laptop;” that’s true shit! My “hard drive” crashed; I lost my video camera in Hawley, PA! Yea, nice job, B-Real, on that beat! They “betta pay da producer! You gon pay da producer!” Yea, “pay da producer!” It’s so catchy for, like, somethin’ that’s true, as far as business; it’s like a business anthem! Second verse, Big Wayne; he’s exposin’ all those bitch-ass people that call him up. I could do that too, but I do that privately to my close peeps. And, I have all tha proof! Definitely a great collaboration between two brothers, through tha verses, tha hook, tha beat! Y’all definitely did err-thang on this track!! Definitely an anthem fa 2013!! My Current Rating: 4.7

04. “It’s Nothin’” Feat. Zeus

Produced by DJ B-Real & Zeus, OMG!!!!! Holy shit!!! OMG, Zeus on tha feature and tha production wit you, DJ B-Real!!! I don’t even remember tha last time I heard Zeus on a track, but in 10 dayz, it’s gonna be tha ½ decade celebration of when I first discovered you two guys, back on February 16, 2008, on dat Big Jay’s Pyrex Radio Vol. 4: From Crumbz 2 Brickz! Tha 1^st song I heard from B-Real was that “Trap All Day” (La’Keith, B-Real & Kevin Gates); tha 1^st song I heard from Zeus? I’m pretty sure—because it was #6—was Young Ready, Level & Zeus “Knockout (Bow)”, cause I remember Jigga House Records’ song wit Max Minelli, “Parking Lot (Remix)”, was right after that, #7. I mean, to remember it, obviously, I luv them to death! I’m very lookin’ forward ta this, so let’s just get into it! OMG, do I smell perfect rating? I cannot wait until I hear saliva comin’ outta Zeus’ mouth!!!!! And, don’t forget, DJ B-Real, you know, I anticipate you, too! But, Zeus, we need ta hear from you!! And, I hope that keyboard’s fixed now ‘cause it’s Wednesday! It’s not Tuesday anymore, so you’ll be back to producing!! >>> Uh oh, sounds like somethin’ serious!!! Definitely an interestin’ hook, here!! It sounds like tha grimy undaground, like I was just underneath this graffiti wall! “Dinnnnn!!” That beat sound; “fuckin’” luv it!!!!! DJ B-Real startin’ it off; you’re on tha 1^st verse!! “Zeus, he got tha smoke;” oh, why ain’t I wit you guys, right now?!? This iz a perfect club banga fa tha streetz, right here!! “Jigga House up in this thang!!” DJ B-Real & Zeus!!!!! Y’all definitely holdin’ it down!! OMG, I’m just, can’t for tha Zeus verse, on tha 2^nd verse!! I can see this blowin’ up, gettin’ awards from me! Remember I said it, a year before tha awards come out, 2013 style!! Here we go…; that’s Zeus? Sounds hella tight right here, on tha 2^nd verse! Doesn’t exactly sound like him on tha phone, but this iz definitely somethin’ serious, right here!! Like, Zeus would be sayin’ wit tha production, “Whoaaaaaaaa, I be poppin’ dem pillz!!!” Whoo, wow!! My Rating: 5.0

05. “Have A Good Time” Feat. Down Bad

Produced by DJ B-Real!! I be bumpin’ tha “Bunz” collaboration they did, recently! I think it’s gonna be toppin’ my latest playlist, due out February 10, I believe, 2013! So, I can just imagine tha follow-up to that “Bunz”! >>> “Mean dat;” fuckin’ B-Real!! Luv him ta death!!! I think this iz gonna be one of those B-Real hook songs!! Shit yea, a lil’ bit of a bounce vibe!! B-Real handlin’ tha hook real well!! I definitely came here [graffiti wall] ta “have a good time,” in tha fuckin’ freezin’ cold fa B-Real!! We got Terror on tha 1^st verse, here…; shit yea! Splittin’ tha verse up, here; tha 2^nd ½ of tha 1^st verse, here: Cage Da Conducta! He real wild wit it!! What a jam here, B-Real; you just really helpin’ these Down Bad boyz out!! Thumbs up fa dat 1^st verse, right there! Got JR Dot on tha 2^nd verse, right here… “Look at dat booty!!” Sounds like Jack Da Rippa splittin’ tha verse up; 2^nd ½ of tha 2^nd verse… He a “dreadhead;” gotta luv tha dreadheadz!! How can a pussy not get wet ta dis?! DJ B-Real!!! Third verse! I luv how he says, “thug!” Him, Savage; they really be holdin’ it down! Gettin’ tha whole verse, here!! “Feelin’ good” ‘cause you makin’ a feel-good track, right chea!! My Rating: 4.7

06. “Excellent” Feat. J Buc

*Screams* Produced by B-Real & J Buc!!!!! That’s anotha one I luv so much: J Buc!! Muthafuckin’ J Buc collaboratin’ wit DJ B-Real on tha feature and production?! This shit gon be insane!!!!! I can’t wait ta hear this!!! OMG, from tha Zeus collaboration to now this?! I mean, B-Real definitely has tha right ear for people, so, I definitely gon really enjoy this!!! >>> Ooh, tha beat even sounds like how it smells in here [underneath tha graffiti wall], right now!! Can I get a lil’, “J Buc!!!” I luv how tha J Buc productions—they usually start wit a beat start! Ooh, J Buc on tha hook!!! He doin’ tha, “iiiiiiiiit,” again!!! Wow, what an anthem!!! I’m glad ta be under a graffiti wall fa this, right now!! Kick-ass hook from J Buc; glad ta hear him again!! He’s on tha 1^st verse, right here, feelin’ good as a muddafukka!! How did God create B-Real & J Buc?!? Like, tha best parents in tha world, probably!! “Shiiiiiiiit;” “I don’t wanna hear shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitttt” ‘cause I’m “stuck up!!” Definitely a great 1^st verse, Buc!! This iz like “Extravagant (Part 2)”, it reminds me of, ‘cause they were “extravagant” and now, they “excellent!” Time fa tha 2^nd verse…; DJ B-Real!!! B-Real definitely in tha mood, here, fa tha bitches!! You are “perfect,” B-Real; “perfect!!!” He “da shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitttttttt,” courtesy of J Buc!! Wow, just quality; definitely can’t wait ta play it in my car!! My Rating: 4.9

½time: Wow, I am definitely amazed by this CD!!! I believe, I like it better than tha Drama Boyz We ‘Bout Dat Drama (Pre-Album) (Hosted by DJ B-Real)!! It’s very Baton Rouge!! Tha collaborations between beats and features are insane!!! B-Real, you definitely have 2013 on lock!!! Tha average CD rating so far? A WHOPPIN’ 4.8!!!!! You know you got a tight-ass album when tha average iz a 4.8?!? We talkin’ 4.6 iz obsessions, but a 4.8?!? Now, that’s crazy!!! I’m definitely lookin’ forward to tha 2^nd ½; seven jointz ta go!!! I can’t believe it, still!! B-Real, definitely keep shit on-n-poppin’!!!!!

07. “I Love Money” Feat. Savage & Jimi Jump
Produced by DJ B-Real!! I’m not really a “money” fan, but Savage, if he’s on tha track—maybe, he did tha hook? Maybe, he has a verse? I know it’s gonna be one of those, like, Pimp C-type, rollin’-in-your-whip-in-tha-South-type jointz, so I think I’m lookin’ forward! And, we’ll see what Jimi Jump contributes with tha DJ B-Real!! >>> Sounds like tha end of somethin’ for tha beginning; I’m kind of anticipated! “Sav Sinatra!” “B-Real…;” “mean dat!” “Jimi Jump!!” “Roll a blunt; that’s right, Savage!!” I was right about what this would sound like, but wow, holy fuckin’ shit, Savage & B-Real are on tha hook [I think]!!! No homo money-type shit, here; this iz definitely quality!! And now, it’s time for tha 1^st verse!! Obsesser of tha “money…” I thought it was B-Real, but it’s Savage comin’ through, pretty catchy! Hopefully, Savage iz gettin’ a lotta “M-O-N-E-Y;” he definitely deserves it!! Definitely makin’ this shit sound cool!! Yea, “don’t need a woman!” Tha more solo, tha more consistent and successful you are, wit tha green, of course! I luv these 2^nd ½ of tha hooks, where they just repeat! Oh, here’s Savage, right? B-Real was on tha 1^st verse; y’all really sound alike!! And, he mentioned “Pimp C;” how am I so psychic wit this?!? Savage has “three different accounts;” he deserves more, though! I’m “Italian!” “Clean as a biiiiitch!!!” B-Real, you may luv money, but I luv you! There’s no one, pretty much, better in Baton Rouge than B-Real! Savage, you’re always gonna be tha 1^st ta, you know loyal person ta still be cool wit me! Jimi Jump, 3^rd verse… It sounds good; I mean, I would’ve thought it would’ve been just a producer’s song, but at least one non-producer’s good to be featured… “Twist” dat shit up, Jimi!! Yea, sit on dat “toilet;” “shit” on dem hataz!! Oh, no hook? Just a beat outro…; sounds real nice!! Could’ve sworn Savage even collaborated on tha beat; that’s how great it sounds!! My Rating: 4.7

08. “Get On Your Grind” Feat. Lil’ Doonie

Produced by DJ B-Real; who else?!? Holy shit, Lil’ Doonie?! I haven’t heard him—I only heard him on one CD: DeTrane’s Jigg City Radio Vol. 1, back on February 24, 2008…; wow!! Now, almost five years later, he appears on another CD!! And, this’ll definitely be a great collaboration to hear Lil’ Doonie on! DJ B-Real, you hooked up wit a great dude! I don’t even remember if I was older than Lil’ Doonie—I think I was, which I’m, you know, at tha time of 2008, I wasn’t older than many. >>> Sounds like a Savage-type beat again; luvin’ it! “I mean dat;” fuckin’ B-Real wit your great intros!!! I fuckin’ luv ‘em!!! Ooh, you’re on tha hook; wow!!! Definitely supplyin’ tha South to tha fullest with this! Despite me bein’ depressed at times, DJ B-Real, you keep me on my music-promoting grind, and that’s why I love you! Here’s tha 1^st verse…; DJ B-Real!!! We have “bird get tha worm,” DJ B-Real! You’ll always be treated first in my book!! “Put tha bullshit to tha side;” you said it right! You just seem so perfect, B-Real; I hope you live forever!!! We all seem like champs, in a way. And, as much as I feel like you’re like a king, I can’t believe I’m only a couple years younger than you! You seem so far above me, but I guess I’m pretty successful, in a way, I guess? But now, after five years, Lil’ Doonie!! Second verse, it sounds like!! Let’s hear it!!! That voice!! Still sounds good; I like his, “Damn,” part, addin’ some character in a quote! Wow, Doonie, masturbation style!! Bustin’ “a nut” fa da “money!” Shittin’ wit yo J’s on!!! Yea, “fuck sittin’ down;” definitely “stay on [your] grind!!” My Rating: 4.6

09. “Let Me Do Me”

Produced by DJ B-Real!!! I definitely wanna hear more about you, so I gon “let [you] do [you],” B-Real!! Strictly solo on this, so I’m ready to devour this joint!!! >>> Uh oh!! Uh oh, people are comin’! A B-Real tag…; nice beat intro, just continuin’ and continuin’! Well, tha 1^st ½ of tha hook’s flow kinda sounded a lil’ mainstream, but I luv this “let me do me, let me do me; let me do me” shit on tha 2^nd ½ of tha hook!!! Ooh, B-Real trafficking on tha 1^st verse, here; gotta luv this shit!! That just makes me give you anotha hug!! “Hustle, hustle hard!!!”…even though that’s, like, kinda, cliché/quote-type shit… “Sell water to a whale” [I think it’s “well”]? DJ B-Muthafuckin’-Real iz tha shit!!! I like how you said, “dawg,” at tha end of tha 1^st verse, there! B-Real, you definitely representin’!! Somethin’ about this, I really like this because it’s just you on tha track; nobody else!! So, that means, “[you] can do [you]; [you] can do [you]; [you] can do [you]; [you] can do [you]!!” “Come and holla!” Definitely diggin’ these lyrics, continuin’ on tha 2^nd verse, here! “Err-day,” B-Real? So, I assume that’s your job? I just wish you tha best of success, 24/7!!! “Like a 24-hour sto’;” a “sto’,” people!!! My Rating: 4.7

10. “It’s Easy” Feat. Mouse On Tha Track

Produced by DJ B-Real & Doe-Doe?! Doe-Doe, where in tha hell have you been? I haven’t heard anything from you since that Final Destination Vol. 1: Boarding Pass with A-Wissel! This iz prolly gonna be so Mouse On Tha Track, funky-type shit, where his voice sounds so cool and Southern; you know how Mouse be doin’ it! So, I’m definitely lookin’ forward ta this collaboration, includin’ a collaboration on tha beat wit Doe-Doe!!! >>> Uh oh, sounds like electrifying!! “This fiya-ass track!!” “$1,000 in one day”? “It’s easy”? You “mean dat,” B-Real? You “mean dat”? Well, this live review, I would hope to get $100 for! What’s wit that beat tag of yours—that new one? You “make it look easy”? I’m definitely feelin’ this, right here!! Uh oh, here’s all of tha “easy”s!!! I’m definitely feelin’ tha hook, right here, B-Real; I fuckin’ luv you!! “Whoo,” it sounded like you farted on tha 1^st verse! Who doesn’t wanna “be you,” B-Real? I wish I could “be you!!!” What don’t you have?!? I like how you said, “dawg,” again! Yea, don’t do it for “tha fame,” but you do have a lot of “power,” B-Real!! And, once again, about tha $100 for tha live review: I know I’m doin’ it kinda early, just to show you luv, but I definitely feel like a live review’s worth $100! All tha shootin’ and editin’ that I’m doin’, plus reviewin’ your shit live! And, look how good it’s doin’!! “Wahhhhhhhh;” Mouse!!! Second verse; how iz it hard fa him? His voice, just hearing it, “easy” enough ta give it a 4.0+!! “What tha feezy?” Shit no… because this shit iz so tight!! Poppin’ dem “Watsons!!” B-Real, how many “Watsons” have you popped, recently? Wow… It just sounds so cool; I just fuckin’ luv your voice, B-Real, on tha hook!!! Endin’ wit a beat outro, here… My Rating: 4.7

11. “Roger That” Feat. Q-Red

Produced by DJ B-Real & Q-Red! This looks like an interestin’ collaboration; I betcha it’s gon go through tha roof!! >>> Sounds like Q-Red on tha hook…; nice hook right here! I definitely am feelin’ it, between B-Real sayin’, “roger that!” Great collaboration, so far! Q-Red on tha 1^st verse; how ‘bout some N’ Sync? Britney Spears? I don’t know what ta say right now… I dunno if I sound straight listenin’ to this right now, but that was a nice 1^st verse, includin’ tha rapid flow; good job, Q-Red… DJ B-Real on tha 2^nd verse… “Come here, boy;” he’s lurin’ everyone in! “Strive fa tha best”? You are “tha best” outta Louisiana, B-Real!!! Yea, nice job on tha 2^nd verse, B-Real! I think I’m about to get frostbitten… Nice lil’ cold ending, right chea… My Rating: 4.7

12. “You Don’t Know About” Feat. Doodie Da Juvie & 1^st Class Carson

Produced by—OMG, an extra person on tha production!! Produced by DJ B-Real & J Buc!!! Wow, this beat iz definitely gon be nice!! I neva heard of 1^st Class Carson before, so it’s gonna be a different, interestin’ collaboration; I’m lookin’ forward!! >>> B-Real, again, wit this tag… Then, you hear tha Buc sound! Ooh, B-Real intro!! Glad you’re standin’ up fa err-body!! Wow, I wouldn’t’ve thought you’d be on tha hook; this shit iz definitely tight!! Glad you exposin’ these bitch-asses, B-Real! I’m feelin’ tha beat… Doodie on tha 1^st verse? He doesn’t sound like doodie, here! I’m likin’ this shit, especially tha 2^nd ½ of Doodie’s verse! We definitely need ta keep talkin’ about DJ B-Real!! Everyday, all day, everyday, we should mention DJ B-Real!! Here’s tha 2^nd verse…; this must be tha new dude. Wow, he just ready ta say, “middle finger to you F.N.z!” He doesn’t sound cheesy at all; definitely tha type of gangsta shit that sounds good fa tha 225! Even tha “hoes” know about him? Whoo, wow! “You can suck a first class dick?” Uh oh, B-Real on tha 3^rd verse!! Why do people have ta “hate”? That’s why, I’m so big ‘cause I love!! I don’t “hate,” I love!! Ooh, sirens again ‘cause B-Real, “you” da shit!! “Juvielyfe, Jigga House;” nice collaboration!! And, we’re startin’ wit—we got tha intro again, on tha near-ending! My Rating: 4.5

13. “Full Of Dat (Part 2)” Feat. Infa Red & Zeus

Produced by Infa Red & B-Real!! Which, B-Real, you told me, “I didn’t make tha beat,” or somethin’, which Infa Red just did. But, we’ll say this iz a collaboration and yea, you do “mean dat!” Such a classic hook, right there!! “Full of dem barz, full of dem jiggaz; poppin’ dem tabs, smokin’ dat killa!!” And, here’s this part [after]; wow! I luv when y’all “full of dat!” It, just, means a lot ta me that I’m cool wit y’all! And, because I put this on YouTube already, I know tha 1^st verse iz Infa Red, and he “full of dem jiggaz,” and everything that rhymes together! “Full of dem jiggaz!!” He just feels so good when he’s rappin’ this shit, right now! This was featured on my 9^th Louisiana Archives mixtape compilation, 2 Hot 2 Stop, with our now-gone, donated Florida house, on tha front cover! “Full of dem barz, full of dem jiggaz; poppin’ dem tabs, smokin’ dat killa!!” And, we know who’s on tha 2^nd verse; let’s put this king up here, right now: DJ B-Real!! I just luv his whole vibe that he, just, has, here!! He just sounds like tha coolest dude you’d wanna just be with and hang with!! Why would you “have bad nerves,” though, B-Real?! Surprisingly, I like this line: “Threw back a bar, now I’m feelin’ like I got swag,” ‘cause he—‘cause he says, “Bouncin’ up and down,” so it sounds like a kangaroo or some shit!! And, I know I don’t really compare tha dead sometimes, but I have ta say, this hook sounds like Nate Dogg—some of that Nate Dogg shit from back in tha day! Tha last verse? Wow, my boy Zeus!!! Zeus iz fully focused, here; “full of” so much shit! Always be “full of dat,” Zeus; always!! Don’t let it be tha past; it’s timeless!! I still can’t believe that’s tha same voice as tha Zeus I talk to on tha phone; that’s incredible!! “Full of dem jiggaz…;” gotta give ya a hug, DJ B-Real!! You gotta visit me soon!! Well, originally, when this song was on Tha Louisiana Archives Vol. 9, I rated it a 4.8. However, it’s so timeless, 2012 style, and from me… My Current Rating: 5.0

Overall: Wow, can this CD be, like, my best friend or somethin’?!? Holy shit, I think we finally have anotha pure classic in BR—Louisiana, I should say!!! OMG, B-Real, you definitely did a nice job wit tha beats, features, extra producers, and how you be comin’ through on tha tracks!!! Oh yea, and props to me—some credit to you, B-Real—for gettin’ that Savage collaboration to work out! I texted Savage for you, and it worked! That’s tha FTLD power, right there!!! Well, I hope to get a hard copy in tha mail, soon; gotta treat it like a best friend, ya feel me? Ya heard me?! Always stay in touch, B-Real! Thanx for keepin’ me really motivated, as well as I keep you motivated!! You really—I mean, really, there should be a law to where a person iz required to have some DJ B-Real in them! I mean, songs, talking to B-Real in person! I mean, without DJ B-Real, we should die!!! So, keep up tha real great work; this was a lot of fun!! You brought back fun in these reviewz!!!!!
