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!

01.
“Watchu Sayin’”
>>>
Q-Red said on his Instagram that he produced Track #01, but it says, “DJ
Swift”? I’ono; I’ll just wait for a beat tag? Either way, sounds too much like
Mista Cain on tha 1st verse with tha voice/flow, here… Regardless,
it sounds nice with this beat and for an undaground rap song, overall. And, tha
2nd verse sounds a lil’ more listenable… My Rating: 3.8
02.
“Life”
>>>
Now, this tha Q-Red production;
scratch out that 1st track! That ain’t him! Hearin’ tha 1st
verse and it sounds good with these real-life rhymes… Tha beat kinda quiet, at
first, but it’s pullin’ through with these eerie sounds; nice! Not much goin’
on with tha hook except a distorted sample but it sounds nice with this beat…
Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s special with this eerie sound in tha
beat! So many different eerie sounds goin’ on; nice! I’ll give this one major
credit for its pluses, despite it bein’ one of those real-life songs! My Rating: 4.3
03.
“Changed”
>>>
A quiet beat start but it gets better… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse
and it’s soundin’ nice wit how you comin’ through fa these Baton Rouge streetz… Around :39 - :51, you
kinda have a Shy Glizzy-like voice, as tha 1st verse slowly ends;
that’s what it reminds me of… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it a lil’
faster with tha flow… I’ono, nothin’ special; just too fast with tha flow… A
long beat outro, too, but it sounds nice… My
Rating: 3.9
04.
“Ain’t Playin’”
>>>
Nard & B beat; decent, so far… Hearin’ you on tha verse and it sounds okay;
kinda mainstream-y…? Just yada-yada-yada with tha rhymes, here… Rappin’ doesn’t
mean to just randomly rap shit off tha top of ya head fa no reason… Forgot that
you do short songs, so this ended outta nowhere fa me… My Rating: 3.8
05.
“Bet”
Anotha
Q-Red production; can we keep it up? >>> Thought this sounded like
him, but it ain’t? Was he a song off fa each # on tha tracklist? It sounds like
an above-average-soundin’ beat, tho… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it
decent… I’ont fuck wit tha lyrics, at times; boring “money” and doin’ it fa
other people-type shit… Hearin’ tha hook and it just a regular-soundin’ hook
with nothin’ much ta offer. I do like that you made “Bet” tha title, but why?
Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it ain’t too bad; a lil’ betta with tha
street life… My Rating: 3.7
½time: Looks like you’re on an
above-decent track, here, as far as your production and tracks go. Nothin’ too
bad, here; most sounds good. So far, you’re at a 3.9 for tha CD rating; hope it
don’t go down…
06.
“Stepped On”
Q-Red
on tha beat! >>> Yup, this him, this time! Sounds like anotha pure
beat fa Baton Rouge!
Even how you comin’ through on tha hook’s pretty nice! Diggin’ tha steppin’! Nice job with tha 1st
verse, here; nice energy deliverin’ tha rhymes, too! Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 2nd
verse, too, soundin’ great like tha 1st verse… Random laughter at
tha end? Wish I could be that happy at times, again… My Rating: 4.2
07.
“Bootin’ In This”
>>>
Q-Red did this beat and it sounds like it gon be anticipatin’! Only 1:33 on tha
length? Sounds nice with this hook; I like this betta than tha previous joint!
Great job with tha verse, spittin’ some fiya… A beat outro and 12 seconds of
silence at tha end… My Rating: 4.3
08.
“Murder (Remix)” feat. 21 Savage
Q-Red
doin’ tha track…? You’re from Baton
Rouge’s undaground, so no 22? And, 21 a mainstream
one; how you have these connections? >>> Nope, not Q-Red, but DJ
Swift, again; where was he goin’ with tha #’s? Sounds good with tha hook, here,
whether it sounds familiar or not… Still, you sound nice on tha 1st
verse, too… Hearin’ 21 on tha 2nd verse and it sounds good and
almost an undaground feelin’, here… He kinda laidback with tha delivery but
it’s still nice… It honestly makes me feel like this completely undaground,
here; I can appreciate it… My Rating: 4.3
09.
“All I Want” feat. 3Three
Q-Red
On The Track on tha track…? >>> No beat tag; fail!
Decent/betta-than-decent beat, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it ain’t bad; kinda
calm with tha delivery, despite tha “strap” content? Hearin’ tha 1st
verse and it ain’t bad; it flows nice with this beat… Tha 2nd verse
ain’t too bad… Tha quiet vibe of this track’s kinda draggin’… My Rating: 3.7
10.
“Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop”
>>>
Decent start with tha beat and what you’re bringin’ to tha table with tha 1st
verse… Tha hook decent; nothin’ special wit this one, here… And, a 2nd
verse, here, soundin’ decent… This one prolly could’ve used tha Q-Red punches
ta spice thangz up… My Rating: 3.4
Overall: Looks to me like this
your best release, so far, despite almost no features… Q-Red helped out a good
portion of your tracks, here, so you weren’t sinkin’ in tha
decent/below-average range. Also, your non-Q-Red tracks were decent/not wack,
for tha most part, so that’s a plus. We’ll see how you hold it down fa tha
future…
