Review #1,800: Bubba "Long Live Big Meats World"

Reviewed on 3.23.2019 (Review #1,800)


Been depressed & confused about life, these dayz, but I still get a lil’ moment in between tha bullshit to review…! My 1,800th one, right nah! Gonna prolly be a while till I reach 1,900; I’ll prolly be livin’ in my future house in Florida, by then! We’ll see; gotta keep chasin’ tha dreamz! Fa now, here goes my review for Bubba—one of my favorite dudes outta Baton Rouge! Here’s his latest release, Long Live Big Meats World, courtesy of Money Train Gang! Start Time: 11:58 AM | End Time: 1:10 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 and hoes (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

© 2019 CD Review (Review #1,800) reviewed on 3.23.2019 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. Intro (Big Meats Speaks – R.I.P. Marlon Jones)
>>> Sounds good; R.I.P. your dad, by tha way! Felt bad that he took his life right after I met you, in Louisiana! My Rating: N/A


02. “Run Up A Check”
$hop With Ken, here, courtesy of tha production…! >>> Sounds nice wit this production; definitely nice! Even tho a money song, you know I feel what you bring to tha table all tha time, ya feel me? We #80sBabiesInOur30s; baleedat! Lots of rhymes comin’ through throughout tha 1st verse; nice! I agree wit havin’ “love fa a couple…” and all that, with tha times changin’. Can’t be too hyped about a lot, as our circles get smaller, these dayz. Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s pretty nice; consistent, non-stop rhymes! You don’t stop wit deliverin’ rapid fire!! I have to say, I’m really likin’ tha last hook, where you continuously drill, “Run it up, run it up…,” in err-body’s brains, durin’ tha hook! Definitely nice; I fucks wit it! My Rating: 4.6


03. “Do Sumthang” feat. YNW Quarter Baby & Lil’ G
$hop With Ken on this one (that’s what tha back cover says; filename says, “BugottiBeatz”); what “thang” y’all got, here…? >>> Feelin’ what you bringin’ to tha table, here, as well as this production! Yeah, tired of all tha people frontin’ and all they lame, gay, fake nonsense! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and you flow nicely on this beat; definitely nice! Shoutin’ out “Johnnie Domino,” too, here; met y’all one day apart from each other (June 21, 2017 & June 22, 2017). Gotta luv y’all in Baton Rouge; Baton Rouge, where my heart at! It ain’t changin’ wit this undaground rap shit! Got this newbie (tha Quarter Baby) on tha 2nd verse, here, and no matter what year you drop “sumthang,” Bub, you fuck wit good people. Definitely props on this dude fa droppin’ some nice shit, str8 from BR’s hoods! You can tell from tha voice and delivery that you hear that grimy, Baton Rouge shit, str8 from da streetz! Real talk! Tha final verse from G, here, wit some reactin’, in a thinkin’ way. Yeah, sometimes, I “think,” but it seems like I act on impulse, which leads in tha wrong direction, smh. Nice lil’ contribution, here, from tha “Internet,” to “inta dat;” baleedat! My Rating: 4.5


04. “Pain Away”
More $hoppin’ wit Ken, here! >>> Sounds like a lil’ on a sad tip but you got your “shmokin’ ta take this pain away,” so you got dis! Beat cool fa a laidback vibe but yeah, it sux what happened to your pops… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and just like tha hook, no matter tha vibe, you got tha fast rhymes on lock… “Luv all my kids but fuck all they mamas;” crazy havin’ five baby mamas, too! We all got somethin’! I’m just enterin’ tha life of troubled bullshit, as of this year, smh! From 2014 – 2018, there were teases with pull-overs with people & small shit, but now, shit a test! Keepin’ tha 2nd verse goin’; definitely feelin’ your non-stop rappin’! Right b4 tha 2nd verse ended, with you rappin’ over tha distorted part, it’s pretty nuts! Headbang & get devoured by your fast flow, Bub! Likin’ your lil’ hummin’ to hum tha “pain away,” too, toward tha end…! My Rating: 4.2


05. “Like It’z Legal” feat. Spitta & C-Loc
Nunu James on this track…! I had tha exclusive chance, two years ago, to get Bubba & Money Train Gang’s In Too Deep CD, featuring some of these tracks! EQ on this one! For those viewing, if y’all go on my blog, which this review iz on, and find Bubba’s name in tha labels, you’ll find tha older reviewz. For now, I just gon put tha current ratings, if I already have heard ‘em… My Current Rating: 4.7


06. “Father Forgive Me”
Likin’ some of tha featured tracks, here! S/O to EQ Tha Misfit! Crazy that you recorded this & I added it right b4 your dad passed! “Father Forgive Me!” My Current Rating: 4.8


07. “Destin’ Fa Greatnest” feat. Ninja & Shakeback King
Mo from Ken wit this “greatnest!” “Nest!” >>> Sounds like a good beat; gotta always say dat… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it’s cool wit your rhymes… Real shit; always stay around! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and he ain’t bad wit what he bringin’ to da table; it cool… I like how you bring tha hook wit your fast-soundin’ flow, despite this soundin’ a lil’ like a slow/laidback vibe… Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and it’s soundin’ cool, too; nice lil’ contribution, too, from these two dudes I ain’t heard, b4…! My Rating: 4.3


08. “In My Feelings”
Ken on da beat, once again! >>> Sounds like a slow track, here; not too bad for a start… Hearin’ da 1st verse and it sounds good wit how you dealin’ wit tha “feelings” of these realationships; good shit. Hearin’ tha hook and it ain’t too bad, here; kinda an okay track fa me, so far… Hearin’ you on da 2nd verse and it ain’t too bad, too. I like how you refer to yourself in tha 3rd person, with tha line, “Bubba, get out yo feelings;” nice…! My Rating: 4.0


09. “Don’t Step On My Js (Remix)” feat. Lucky Star & Lil’ Ernest
EQ on this remixed track…! >>> Sounds pretty nice that we have an upbeat vibe, here! Not “Step On My Polos”, lol? Just fuckin’ witcha… This sounds pretty nice wit this jiggin’-type vibe, with tha “Watch My Shoes” theme of not steppin’ on dem shoes! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and you got this shit on lock! One of my leaders wit tha “fresh” themes! I live like a celeb, dress & sleep as one, too, thanx ta my clothes & people like you! Keep tha kick-ass flow goin’ wit these kindza tracks! “I done spent $250;” when I spent $200 on my spiked shoes, people look at me like I’m crazy. It’s like, they don’t understand tha life & feelin’ of a celeb! Plus, tha attention I continuously get! This Lucky Star a female, here, on tha 2nd verse and she sounds good, wit this “Js” track; likin’ her rap while tha beat’s distorted…! Keepin’ it movin’ wit Ernest on tha final verse, here, comin’ through wit nice rhymes; good shit! Definitely likin’ him rappin’ toward tha end of his verse, where it’s acapella! My Rating: 4.7


½time: Kickin’ ass wit these tracks, here! Definitely glad you got some new shit ta keep shit on-n-poppin’, ya dig? A 4.5-rated CD, currently! Of course, you got your rappin’ on lock, as well as havin’ all original production! You can’t lose wit Bubba & tha #80sBabiesInOur30s vibe, wit this 225-type shit!


10. “BackStabbers”
More features, courtesy of BugottiBeatz, once again, even tho tha back cover has it as a blank producer, lol…! My Current Rating: 4.3


11. “Wasn’t Fa My Hustle” feat. 38 Slim & Ian EFX
An EQ beat, once again…! My Current Rating: 4.8


12. “She Say She Love Me”
With Ken on tha beat, here! >>> Sounds like a slower track, here, even tho a lil’ upbeat… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it sounds like you tryna get through these times… Tha hook ain’t too bad, here; I can fuck wit it… You ain’t tha type to disappoint, so that’s why, I always give you tha benefit of tha doubt wit this shit! Neva stop doin’ what you doin’, bruh! Hearin’ you on tha 2nd verse and you keepin’ it movin’, once again; good shit…! It’s always entertainin’ ta hear about your life and shit; not boring! My Rating: 4.0


13. “Real Rap (Pt. 2)” feat. Ian EFX
Full version, featuring Ian EFX? Looks like it gon have an extra boost to it, courtesy of Mod Productions on tha beat! >>> Still sounds good with its original beat and hook; always been catchy/“real!” Nice dat you kept tha 1st verse tha same, too; always consistent, to da bone! Ian sounds like an O.G., on tha 2nd verse. He a decade older than you and even more than me, holdin’ it down wit his gold teeth! He a gold-teeth gator! Sounds good; more like an O.G. evolution of your status wit him on this one…! It makes me look at myself, now that I’m in my 30’s, how legendary I’ve become! I’m startin’ ta finally feel tha success! My Rating: 4.7


14. “3hree 5ives & 7evens”
Of course, still likin’ this title, here, wit Lil’ G on tha beat! My Current Rating: 4.6


15. “Retarded” feat. Max Minelli
Lol! EQ, here! Ironic ‘cause with tha way I’m currently livin’ in New York, right now, vs. tha fact that tha calendar iz tha same as 2013’s, here comes this in 2019! My Current Rating: 4.9


16. “Million Dolla Trap Spot”
DJ B-Real!! So glad he reconnected wit me! My Current Rating: 4.7


17. “My Trust Fucked Up” feat. Young Ready & DJ Chill
Anotha one from a while back, even tho sometimes, I like to think that we still livin’ in those times… Mod Productions on this track, fa those that ain’t know… I actually can relate to this a lot more than when I first heard it, especially with tha hot water that’s been poppin’ off in PA, lately. Also, not even three weeks ago, gettin’ in my car to pick some1 up and tha cops followed me/pulled us over, smh! Tha ultimate “trust” killer!! Lol, kept tha mixed version from your 1st mixtape! My Current Rating: 4.8


18. “Love N Relationships”
Secret on this secret production… My Current Rating: 4.0


19. “I’ma Hustle” feat. Byrd
Though I got as an exclusive back in 2015, I never got to review it. With EQ on tha beat, this a pretty nice one; definitely great fa EQ on this beat! Catchy lil’ hook wit tha hustlin’, on tha hook! You got tha determination in ya, as always! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse, here, soundin’ good. “Made 10 bands in 10 dayz;” that’s what I was doin’, Bub! A stack a day! It sux that certain rules & sneak attacks destroyed me tryna get what I deserved! “Last year, took a loss…;” wish err-body would deal wit they losses, as you kick off tha 2nd verse! Err-body wanna have a win but sometimes, you need dat “loss” to make a bigger win happen! Luv how you speed up your rappin’ at 2:49: “Now, you just fuck me, duck me, neva luv me…” I also like how you say, “Aight (aight),” after tha next line! It’s that swag in ya—I hate that word, “swag,” but I had ta say it fa you ‘cause you definitely got it! Good collab wit tha good-ole Byrd on tha 3rd verse, strictly spittin’ those hustlin’ facts! We all go through jail time, court time, etc.! When it’ll happen in someone’s life? Who knows! Also, likin’ how tha beat rides out toward tha end; good shit! My Current Rating: 4.8


Overall: Definitely some mo good shit, Bub! You’ve had five releases in total, so far, and all of ‘em have been automatic five-star-rated CDs! That’s definitely what’s up! You’ve neva had anythang lower than a 4.0, as far as a song’s rating! I don’t thank many have accomplished that feat; you’re on tha top wit that feat, Bub, bruh! Keep up tha great work; hope we link up again in da Rouge! I’ll keep you posted when I come down, again! It prolly won’t be for a while, since I gotta take care of this bullshit goin’ on. I just know that we’ll still be #80sBabiesInOur30s by tha time I get back to tha Rouge! Baleedat!! Not a year goes by without me goin’ to BR!!

01. “Father Forgive Me”
Kickin’ it off like this…, produced by EQ… Howey gon debut dem Money Train Gang boyz, lol?! Notice I said, “Howey,” ta give this a good flow wit one of my connects, who finna be 50! My favorite chick I shmoke with!! >>> Nice lil’ long intro from EQ, here; definitely nice! “I wake up in tha morning, smoke a blunt…;” fuckin’ nice! And, “take a shit,” Bubb? Definitely nice! And, I’m definitely agreein’ wit what you sayin’, here! You did have shit on-n-poppin’ “befo this Insta shit!” Definitely luvin’ tha consistency of what you bringin’ to tha table, here! Influential music fa me, here! Makes me live like tha celeb I am today!! Oh, I think I might rememba you givin’ me a sample of this, too? I feel like each Louisiana CD I’m listenin’ to, I feel like if I was in tha whip or studio, I done heard somethin’. Lol, just a perspective, lol! I just remember tha “fo baby mamas” part, which iz funny ‘cause tha Howey I was talkin’ ‘bout had “fo baby [daddies];” trippiness, Bubb!! Also, I like how you recycled “I’ma Hustle” on tha 2nd verse, too! Great flow, great err-thang!! Just luv tha whole entire track! Made me feel real special!! My Rating: 4.9


02. “Wasn’t Fa My Hustle” feat. 38 Slim & Ian EFX
Anotha EQ production; can’t wait, once again! Let’s keep this pure music comin’ along!! >>> Sounds nice and upbeat fa what EQ bringin’ to tha table, here… And, here you are on tha hook, soundin’ pretty dope! Gotta luv tha motivational music you bringin’ to tha table, here! Definitely feelin’ your “hustle” and it creates my “hustle!” Good shit goin’ on throughout tha 1st verse! “Always been a go-getter;” right? That’s what I am… Hope you neva quit tha biz! Keep tha hot shit comin’ along!! And, tha 2nd verse’s pretty dope, here! Gotta luv how 38 bringin’ it to tha table, here! I passed “N 38th St.” while I was in Baton Rouge, last week… Definitely catchy shit to tha fullest! Can’t imagine what Ian gon bring to tha table! Legendary! I gotta hit my boy up right nah & let him know I gotta link up wit him, next time I touch down! Feelin’ tha rhymes he bringin’, especially wit tha “subtract and divide” shit? Fuckin’ luvin’ this shit!! “Don’t help me wit tha groceries” part toward tha end of tha verse was pretty pure! Just really feelin’ this in a major way, of course! My Rating: 4.8


03. “Back Stabbers”
Blue Billlz (three “L”’s) on tha beat, here… I have a feelin’ I know where dis goin’… >>> I feel like it’s over-sampled… However, I like how it sounds pretty slowed down, in a trap way, on tha hook… And, after tha hook, I love how you have a lil’ intro to tha verse, here! And, at 1:13, we got tha 1st verse, here, as you’re deliverin’ tha rhymes, here… It’s like, real life, real shit! Props fa bein’ that leader to lay down life at its finest, right chea! This how we livin’ in 2017! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here, layin’ it down in this back-stabbin’ world we livin’ in! I have to say, you made this sound pretty nice; can’t hate on it…! My Rating: 4.3


04. “Like It’s Legal” feat. Spitta & C-Loc
NuNu James did this track… Leggo!! >>> Sounds like a dope lil’ beat, here; definitely anticipatin’ tha track! Definitely feelin’ tha hook from Spitta, here! Definitely holdin’ it down like kingz, here! Glad y’all connected wit each other, ya dig? Hearin’ tha 1st verse from Loc and he got shit on lock, here, neva agin’ in this game (like me)! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse from Spitta, here, keepin’ shit movin’… An unstoppable dude, right chea; glad he keepin’ tha quality goin’! Constantly goin’ and goin’, here; gotta feel his aggression!! “Fuck” err-thang!! And, not sure how I was gon act, but I seen about seven gunz while I was in BR on my last trip; crazy! But, even crazier, Bubba on tha 3rd verse, strictly, consistently comin’ through wi it! Just luv what you bringin’, Bubb! Just deliverin’ that real shit that only us celebz live with!! Gotta luv it!! My Rating: 4.7


½time: Dat pure heat!! Gotta luv it, Bubba!! A 4.7-rated CD, here; glad you keepin’ tha music comin’!!


05. “Million Dollar Trap Spot”
Gotta dig tha title ‘cause not only do you think I’m a “future millionaire,” but havin’ DJ B-Real on tha beat, here, makes me feel like he a millionaire, as well! Can’t wait ta hear dis one! Oh, there’ll only be one Baton Rouge and that’s Baton Rouge, Louisiana!! >>> Crazy-ass, sick-ass beat intro from Mr. B-Real, here! Of course, gotta enjoy this shit while on edibles! Tha hook sounds pretty dope, here, as you’re holdin’ tha success down in your “small circle,” ya dig? I’ono what it iz, but everytime I’m on edibles, listenin’ to a B-Real track, I feel like I get random rushes to my head, as if I’m dozin’ off… Happened to me earlier on January 15 when I was listenin’ to his “Make A Change” collab wit Tazz… Tha edibles were kickin’ my head’s ass and I randomly hallucinated, lol! Tha 1st verse’s definitely nice wit what you got goin’ on, here, Bubb! Just strictly tellin’ it like it iz! Glad you don’t stop livin’ tha celeb life!! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here, and you really holdin’ tha consistent rappin’ down! Glad you don’t stop buildin’ your success! My Rating: 4.7


06. “3hree 5s & 7s”
Lil’ G on this track… Only six tracks on tha CD, itself, lol? >>> Definitely feelin’ tha vibe, of course… You got this shit on lock, here; nice job, Bubb! Tha hook’s catchy as hell! Funny that tha title has “3hree” and “7s;” oh, that birthday of one of my favorite people that can drive me crazy up here, lol! I feel like they always be hauntin’ me on these reviewz, throughout life, etc., lol! “Life iz a [her name] and then, you die!” It’s not a bitch, anymore, lol! With that bein’ said, Bubb, here you are on tha 1st verse, comin’ through wit dat successful-type shit; definitely lovin’ it! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here, doin’ ya thang, of course…! Like how you said, “Dat purple retawded!” Bubb, you—yeah, “[We] smell [ya]!” Yeah, you got shit on lockdown at all times, ya dig? My Rating: 4.6


07. “Don’t Worry ‘Bout Me”
Well, this and tha last one aren’t on tha CD, itself, so I’ono know this title/producer till I hear it, I guess? >>> Had a feelin’ it was gon be EQ on tha beat ‘cause tha intro sounded similar to “I’ma Hustle”, in a way… Well, figurin’ that it samples The Roots & Erykah Badu’s “You Got Me”, we can call it anything we want, from that sample? Maybe, “Don’t Worry ‘Bout Me”? Definitely dope, here, between tha sample and tha kick-ass beat! Luv what you bringin’ to tha 1st verse, too; definitely what you gotta go through in tha life of a Bubb! Tha Bubb…a…!! Almost thought it was gon be a featured dude on tha 2nd verse, fa a sec… And, dope lil’ part about “Goin’ from 100 to 80 to a pure bitch;” exactly what just happened to tha friends I hung out with, all year! Ugh!! Tha celeb (me) moves on…! Yeah, you right about tha message and how they “change.” And, I see your success; I cherish it! I know I gon give you some of mine when I keep climbin’!! My Rating: 4.8


08. “Love & Relationships”
Goin’ right inta dis… >>> Sounds like it gon be a nice lil’ wedding-like night out, or somethin’, wit how this beat sounds? Then again, it’s anotha celeb feelin’… “Love & Relationships”? Leggo… Good shit wit what you bringin’ to tha table on tha 1st verse, here… A lil’ talkin’ throughout tha hook, here… Lol, you regrettin’ all tha “relationships” and shit like dat? Crazy… Crazy that I, like, ain’t step too far and have been able to hold off ‘cause I wanna keep focusin’ on my career… Lol, nice job wit tha 2nd verse and tha lifestyle of Bubba! Even got a 3rd verse, too, doin’ ya thang on this… My Rating: 4.0


Overall: Nice job, Bubb!! Excellent job! So glad you not only keep tha music up, but keep up tha quality, tha motivation to continue livin’ like a celeb & more! Glad I got you as one of my top inspirations! Keep up tha grind/tha great work, my boy!!

Review #138: 3 Way Street Radio Presents "Jigg City Rockstars"

Reviewed on 10.17.2008 (Review No. 138)


Damn, I'm tired right now (wit my neck), it's FrankieThaLuckyDog here… And here's anotha review from me! Here goes my review for 3 Way Street Radio Presents "Jigg City Rockstars"! BTW, because this mixtape (and tha other one I'm reviewin' today) iz a compilation, I'm prolly gonna know some songs/have reviewed some in tha past. If that's tha case, I'm just gonna copy from my older reviews and paste tha review onto here. This iz important 'cause I gotta get as many reviews done as possible 'cause college iz to tha point where I have to focus on it more and so I can have tha same rating for tha song. I may change tha ratings if I feel different about tha song now also. Start Time: 5:47 PM | Video Game Playing: Secret Of Mana (for Super Nintendo) (on my computer)


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 or have auto-tune in your vocals, I’m not buyin’ it!

01. Max Minelli Feat. Coline "Fresh 2 Death"
I don't feel like checkin' to see if I know it… Actually, I just did on my iTunes and I do know it. Lemme remind myself here by hearin' it… >>> I like that "we will rock you" intro for this. Nice intro from Greg Dukes. I couldn't picture a girl on a Max song, but yeah, tha girl sounds nice. I'll give her tha acceptance. I like tha "To The Max" (from A-Mar & Dyl) sample when Max Minelli goes in his verse "you know how I do it, fresh out tha plastic seal" in that song. I like tha "you can't clone me" part in tha hook from Coline also! This would be a great follow-up single from "U Gotta Luv Me Baby"! This sounds a lil' better hearin' it. I didn't expect this to be tha 1st song on here but it iz. BTW, ID Error No. 1: Coline iz tha featured artist on this (according to tha "The Remedy" CD). BTW, nice lil' check-in at tha end from Greg Dukes. I LOVE Baton Rouge and I can't wait to visit it in tha future!! My Current Rating: 4.1


02. Dope Celebrity Family Feat. Lil' Jay & Delwin Da Krazyman "Baton Rouge"
Nailin' it on tha features I see! Finally listin' 'em. I'm DEFINITELY lookin' forward to this mega collabo!! Hope it's at least 5 minutes long! >>> Up, only 3:56 on tha length. Unexpected "Born N Raised" beat. It's a nice start so far wit that "B.R." hook! That dude on tha 1st verse has a cool Baton Rouge voice; nice 1st verse right there! That was a nice 2nd verse too and I'm glad they mentioned Nu$$ie. Let's see tha 3rd verse… Nice rappin' and rhymes, especially wit that "play wit Lil' Jay and I'mma leave yo skull duggery" line! My Rating: 4.3


03. Luch Million$ "This Him"
He's a Louisiana representative? I neva knew that… Anyway, let's see how he did on this mixtape… >>> Nice lil' intro of him talkin'. That's a real tight beat; sounds like Nitti! I like that Rich Boy sample on tha hook; this sounds kinda mainstream. Great 1st verse right there; this a joint that goes hard wit that beat!! Great 2nd verse too on this. What a jam right here! My Rating: 4.5


04. Delwin Da Krazyman "Cool Me Off"
Now let's see how this dude gon do it without tha others from tha "Baton Rouge" song… >>> Not bad start… Typical down south sounding… Decent song so far. Sounds like Lil' Boosie on tha 2nd verse (or someone else). Nice 2nd verse as well as tha 1st one. A young kid sounding on tha 3rd verse… Who are tha featured people? Nice shit right here and "cool" title/hook. My Rating: 3.9


05. A.N.T. "Party Animal"
A new dude to me so let's see how much of a "party animal" this "A.N.T." iz, lol! >>> Neat beat and tha hook iz okay 'cause it's a typical, repetitive one. Nice 1st verse; this dude sounds pretty cool to listen to. Iz that a different dude on tha 2nd verse? I guess it iz but I liked tha 1st verse a lil' better. My Rating: 3.8


06. Lil' Ronnie Feat. Thrasher Boy "Club Money"
There's a Lil' Ronnie from Texas and then there was an R&B singer after that. Who's this 3rd one? This hopefully should be an interesting joint since its got "Club Money" as its title. >>> X-Fyle on tha track (gotta luv those random "___ on tha track" things on random tracks)! Nice beat and nice start wit tha good vibe. Great 1st verse so far since that dude's "'bauds saggin';" that's watz good. Great collabo here!! Likin' this joint a whole lot wit that hook and that great 1st verse so far! Wow, nice ending of tha hook wit tha "gettin' full of dem blunts, blunts, blunts, blunts!!" I'm glad it repeated again that fast! Let's hear this 2nd verse… Tha 2nd verse dude iz on that Doulja. Pretty nice 2nd verse too. That dude on tha 3rd verse sounds hungry for this track! He sounds like he doesn't stop rappin'! Great 3rd verse as well! REAL NICE joint right here!!! My Rating: 4.7


07. 2 Gutta "Transform"
This that female from tha "Jigg City Allstars Vol. 1" CD? I think I'm anticipated to hear what she's got again; how did she "transform"? >>> I think I liked tha otha joint better but this has a nice beat so this could have a chance… Sounds like a nice/crunk/gutta 1st verse! She sounds like a crazy chick 'cause she's on a lot of shit and she's deliverin' this joint nice! Nice and now at about 2:50, it sounds like someone else… That dude sounds CRAZY/GUTTA also!! Great shit and wit 1:10 left, Greg Dukes talkin' already? That's cool that he talked during what was left and that tha joint just kept continuing consistantly! My Rating: 4.0


08. Big Boom Feat. 2 Throwed "Take A Picture"
Let's see what this joint's about… >>> Mr. "A Bay Bay" in tha beginning… Not bad for tha start… Not bad on tha 1st verse. Decent song for me so far. Cool effect around tha 2:40 mark on tha 2nd verse. Nice "fresh" shit in tha 2nd verse. I like tha "I flow like fluid" line; nice 2nd verse. Pretty nice song, somewhat of a mainstream feel. My Rating: 3.7


09. Webbie Feat. Lil' Phat & Lil' Boosie "Independent"
This CD must be from last year if this shit iz on it. Damn, this joint iz very old (and tha songs I've heard that were older than this don't feel older than this). That's a confirmed error on tha ID: ID Error No. 2: Lil' Phat iz not in tha ID (when he's on tha hook and tha 2nd verse). I still really like this song and I'm glad it had all tha success it did have! Louisiana had a much bigger 2007 than 2008 in tha mainstream. Music Choice Hitlist still plays this and tha other Music Choice channels don't play it (I don't think) anymore, lol! I'm glad I got to hear and review so much Louisiana shit in 2008 and I'm hoping it continues! I'm also blessed to talk to, do business wit and become real cool wit lots of rappers, managers, DJs, and all them good people in Louisiana! I'll always be here doin' this shit and doin' anythang for Louisiana peeps, ya heard me. Always liked Lil' Phat's verse and hook tha best in this. My Current Rating: 4.4


½time: So far pretty good. I'm likin' a lot of shit on here but I think I like tha "Jigg City Allstars Vol. 1" CD better (which I should've reviewed this one before that one). I'm curious to know what's left…


10. Thug Brothers "Shoe 'Em How To Act"
Let's see… I hope this iz good (I have a feelin')! >>> Liked tha "Party Like A Rockstar" lil' interlude/intro for this. Now onto tha actual track: This sounds like it has a nice beat so far. I like tha hook and it looks like I'm enjoyin' tha beginnin' of tha 1st verse! Great 1st verse and now tha 2nd verse iz on and I'm likin' it also; cool voice. Pretty nice 3rd verse too. Glad that 3rd verse dude iz a lady's "genie in a bottle." That's cool that Greg Dukes iz "jigged out" from all this shit and all tha studio shit. My Rating: 4.2


11. Down Bad "Jigg It Out"
I don't think I know this Down Bad song so let's have tha jiggin'ness continue!! >>> Only 2:03 on tha length on this mixtape… I hear "pants saggin'" in tha background of Greg Dukes talkin' so thumbs up on that. Sounds like it's a very fast vibe! Nice 1st verse and that hook sounds good too! Feelin' this fast shit! Great shit here and likin' that 2nd verse too! My Rating: 4.4


12. J-Money Feat. Lil' Boosie "She Bad"
Was wondering who that was that Greg Dukes was mentioning at tha end of tha "Jigg It Out" joint. Let's see what J-Money this iz and how this joint gon sound… >>> It says Lil' Boosie's on tha feature on tha mp3 but not on tha cover so that's ID Error No. 3. Wow, this sounds tight so far! I was almost afraid to listen to it 'cause I thought this was J Money (without tha dash in between his name) that DJ Scream fucks wit (wit that "first name, last name" shit). NICE beat and great start so far on tha 1st verse! Nice 1st verse and jammin' hook right chea! Lil' Boosie did a nice job on that 2nd verse right there, tellin' tha girlz some good advice! Good 3rd verse from J-Money as well; nice club banger right here!! My Rating: 4.5


13. Tha Camp "Move Around"
Interesting that you put a Tha Camp song on here! That's REALLY watz good that you put this on there! There were a bunch other better songs from that "Break It Off!" CD, but I loved 'em all so I don't care which one gets on here; this iz good! Oh yeah, no errors on tha ID 'cause Tha Camp iz a group consistin' of various Baton Rouge rappers. B-Real on tha beat! Oh tha intro tellin' me who's in tha whole camp: C-Loc, Max Minelli, Young Ready, Reno, Crucial & B-Real. That's tha whole camp. Tha beat sounds tight. Max Minelli starts tha 1st verse off… Glad "his flow caught a fever!" He did good. My ma'fuckin' DAWG Young Ready on tha 2nd verse!! Yeah, he'll DEFINITELY "leave a body by tha interstate." That's how RAW he iz when it comes to tha raps, ya dig!! I guess tha 3rd verse was from B-Real. Pretty good. Tha hook was pretty good too. My Current Rating: 4.4


14. 38 $limm "Matchbox"
I might remember him from some of tha "Pyrex Radio" compilation mixtapes. If I remember, him and another dude (that he always raps wit) raps over jacked beats? That's what I'll guess this'll be: a jacked beat. >>> Good unfamiliar beat! It started outta nowhere without an hesitation! Great voice for this song, great intro and hearin' tha 1st verse and it's soundin' tight! Oh yeah, forgot about that hook; it's tight also! A nice 2nd verse too. Even though only 2:32 on tha length, this was some tight shit! I guess it's shorter at tha end 'cause it just went into Three 6 Mafia's "Like Money" joint. My Rating: 4.4


15. Down Bad "Out Chea"
I heard this one before but because I heard it a while ago, I'm gonna re-review it right now. >>> I can't get enough of their hooks!!! They always prepare a REAL NICE joint!! Reminds me a lil' of tha "I Smoke, I Drank" joint (wit tha beat and tha beginning of tha hook; how it sounds). Likin' that 1st verse right there. Nice gutta feel on tha 2nd verse wit those lyrics about tha "AK" and shit like that. Nice 3rd verse too on this. Can't really say much about Down Bad 'cause they always deliver a nice track! My Current Rating: 4.3


16. Pramance (Of Da Southern Boyz) "Bad 2 Da Bone"
Let's see how this joint gon sound (nice title)! >>> Sounds like it fits tha title of this mixtape wit tha "rockstars" shit. A lil' different from what I've been hearin' on here… Okay start so far… You know I'm gonna have to get used to this shit. Okay, as I heard tha 2nd verse, I was startin' to like it more. This could be somethin' addicting to listen to so I feel it growin' right now! Real nice 3rd verse as I like this shit more! I like that "Joker/spades" line towards tha end of tha 3rd verse. Now I'm likin' tha hook also; real catchy! My Rating: 4.4


17. Parktown Bone "Do Yo Thang"
Anotha "bone"? LOL! I might like this one too a lot! >>> Anotha X-File track so this could be a definite high rating from me! Likin' tha beat so far and lookin' forward to hearin' tha track startin'… Yeah, this iz tha shit I can get into. I like that this dude gon "do his thang" in a "polo" as he said that on tha 1st verse. And now I'm hearin' that his "pants saggin'" so he's got his swag game up! Now you know I'm gonna love this shit instantly!! And he's from Baton Rouge so that's a plus again!! Three pluses within a verse!! Lovin' tha 2nd verse too wit tha smokin' shit, tha "dope" and all tha otha shit he talkin' 'bout. I don't know what my highest rated song was on here but if it was just 4.7, then this joint iz my favorite. We'll see what happens at tha end. Lovin' this shit right here! My Rating: 4.8


18. Kidd Kidd Feat. Lil' Bubba & Big Head "On Them Tee Tees"
Last joint here… Let's see how they collab wit Big Head! >>> Dude on tha 1st verse sounds like a different version of Lil' Boosie. He's "on that Doulja" so that's good for him. Good 1st verse and now I'm hearin' that hook… Sounds familiar but I don't think I heard tha song before. I like that shit on tha hook, especially that "chokin' on that purp" line! It sounds like Big Head on tha 2nd verse… LOL @ "doin' a 2 step" after "hittin' that purple." Yeah, nice 2nd verse and I'm likin' that "everytime I hit tha club, I'M JIGGIN'!!" part also in tha hook! That was a nice 3rd verse too. Ending of this joint/mixtape was a lil' too cold (it like cut off). My Rating: 4.5


Overall: End Time: 7:16 PM. Well, this only took me 1 hour, 29 minutes; not bad! It looks like tha 2nd ½ of tha CD was pretty much still on tha ratings (most had 4.3 – 4.5) but DEFINITELY anotha nice mixtape here!! I'm lookin' forward to tha next one I finna peep out ("Got Pills? 2")! Keep an eye out for it in like 2 hours!
