Review #449: Tec-9 "Straight From Tha Ramp!!!"

Reviewed on 5.06.2010 (Review #449)




Keepin’ it goin’, let’s see Review #8 fa tha day: Tec-9 “Straight From Tha Ramp!!!”! DEFINITELY a GR8 rapper so let’s how a WHOLE CD sounds!!! Start Time: 9:06 PM | End Time: 9:50 PM


Quick Note: 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) so 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.

01. Cash Money TV
Y’all are presentin’ it via “TV;” lemme hear what’s presented via speakers, lol! >>> LOL @ tha “muthafuckin’ hostess!” GR8 way ta start this shit off—LOL, “dick suckin’ and ass lickin’?” TOO FUCKIN’ MUCH HERE WITHIN ONLY 30 SECONDS!!! Now, what’s goin’ on? Ooh, here you come through in tha intro here… Ooh, a PNC diss!! Now, there’s a war!!! So, it was ova “pocket change?” How DARE they not give you money!! U.N.L.V. 4 LIFE!!! Sounds like imitatin’ dickridin’ goin’ on here… I like how y’all sayin’ “bruh” though so y’all get a plus fa dat already! ROFL @ tha endin’: “Get tha fuck off tha stage!!” My Rating: N/A


02. “Where Ya From” Feat. BG’z
Look @ dat length of ova six minutes!! What do we got here? >>> Good dat there’s a Bounce beat although this sounds a lil’ familiar wit tha hook… Ooh, I hear tha 1st verse comin’ through in a gr8 way!! DEFINITELY cool wit tha rappin’ here and tha beat sounds hot! I think someone sampled tha sample in this beat not too long ago (forgot what song it was). Nice job holdin’ down tha 1st verse right there, ya dig! Feelin’ this shit as it’s comin’ through in full force!! Comin’ through “like a real G should” for tha 2nd verse here; lookin’ forward ta hearin’ tha whole thang! Nice job deliverin’ this shit; y’all comin’ through strong fa tha hood! I was just ‘bout ta say, B.G.’s on tha 3rd verse? Then, who’s tha BG’z? I rememba seein’ on Music Choice Rap dat BG’z was a group back in tha day; I see now… But yea, good looks on B.G. rappin’ on tha 3rd verse, doin’ his “street shit” thang to tha fullest!! Let’s see if a 4th verse can fit or will it be just a long-ass beat outro? Oh, I hear a hook repeatin’; I can handle dat. My Rating: 4.6


03. “Riding High” Feat. Kilo G
Shit yea, Kilo G’s featured on dis shit!! REALLY lookin’ forward ta hearin’ dis shit!!! >>> Smooth lil’ “ridin’”-type beat here and it sounds GR8 on tha hook!! Ooh, some smokin’ lyrics in tha 1st verse already!! Already, dat’s watz good!!! Nice job done on tha 1st verse right chea, ya dig! Glad y’all boyz come through and spit tha BEST shit fa tha hood and fa tha undaground!! Tha 2nd verse sounds TIGHT tha way it’s delivered, ya dig!! DEFINITELY thumbs up ta this shit!! “Twist up tha P;” good shit, my dawg Kilo G!! Tec-9, let’s see what’s good wit dis 3rd verse right chere? Straight hood shit to tha fullest!! You a GR8 representa fa these hoods and I’m glad you doin’ tha damn thang on this track right chea!! My Rating: 4.8


04. “Bounty Hunter” Feat. Kilo G
Shit-fuckin’-yea!!! ANOTHA Kilo G collaboration!!! >>> Soundin’ like an anticipatin’ start; I like how it keeps loopin’ tha beat start! Ooh, a NICE kick-in at :27!! Sounds like some GR8 hood shit goin’ on in tha 1st verse right chea, ya dig! Nice job comin’ through wit these rhymes for tha undaground once again! Tha hook sounds short but it’s good fa what it iz, ya dig! Oh, SHIIIIIIIITTT!!! LUV tha start to tha 2nd verse as it came outta nowhere!!! VERY GOOD JOB RIGHT THERE!!!!! Tha street content (from tha “grabbin’ stashes of dope” to “snort and snortin’”) iz CRAZY!!!!! REAL, REAL CRAZY!!!!! Thumbs up ta tha BIG DAWG Kilo G!!!!! Tha 3rd verse sounds pretty tight right chea, doin’ tha damn thang wit all tha street shit!! My Rating: 4.9


05. “Flexin’”
How will you be “flexin’” on dis shit right chea? Let’s see how you do it by yourself! >>> Pretty good West Coast-influenced-type beat here; sounds good once again. Sounds like some West Coast-styled rappin’ too based off how you sound on this shit; good shit. Tha 2nd verse has some gangsta shit added to it; nice job deliverin’ this shit. Interestin’ shit wit “poppin’ tha trunk” goin’ on in tha 3rd verse too; keep this shit up! Glad you got ear-catchin’ rhymes just like Ruthless Juveniles, who I previously reviewed today dat had REALLY descripitive TIGHT rhymes!!! My Rating: 4.2


½time: You DEFINITELY a BEAST wit dis shit right chea, Tec-9!! Thanx fa REALLY pushin’ Kilo G on your music ‘cause he REALLY makin’ these jointz sound REAL, REAL GOOD!! He a FUCKIN’ BEAST wit dis shit right chea!! And now, look at your current average CD rating: 4.6; thanx a WHOLE LOT fa this gr8 music!!!


06. “Loose Lips, Sank Ships” Feat. Number-Lu
Interestin’ title here and a newbie on tha collab; let’s see what this sounds like! >>> Pretty good start for tha beat… Not bad so far… Interestin’ lyrics of what you’re dealin’ wit in tha 1st verse. Let’s see what tha 2nd verse holds… I guess it explains more of tha title; good, good… My Rating: 3.8


07. “Who’s That Nigga”
You… Let’s see what you bring on dis track alone! >>> It’s completely you when it comes ta tha flow right chea and tha delivery! Good rhymes goin’ on in tha 1st verse; ‘preciate your lyrical content. Tha 2nd verse sounds like tha flow’s flowin’ good wit tha lyrics. Pretty descriptive around 2:40 wit tha “bust a nut” part, lol. My Rating: 3.9


08. “Straight From Tha Ramp” Feat. B-32
Title track here wit dat boy B-32 on tha track wit you; let’s see how GR8 this collaboration iz!! >>> Likin’ how this beat sounds; almost sounds like tha current dayz. Pretty good rappin’ on tha 1st verse right chea; you doin’ ya thang fa tha hood here. Tha hook sounds good; I like how y’all comin’ through wit it. Let’s hear Baby on tha 2nd verse here… I like how he came through wit his two cents. You doin’ a pretty good job fa tha hood on tha 3rd verse also right chea. Ooh, B-32 takes tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse right chea, doin’ his thang “on tha ramp” and “gettin’ fulla dat water!” My Rating: 4.0


09. “Uptown, Uptown” Feat. B-32
Shid, anotha collaboration wit B-32! Let’s see how GR8 this one goes!! >>> Ooh, likin’ how this beat sounds fa a start! Soundin’ like it’s on some good Louisiana-type shit here! Very “uptownful” right chea wit all tha shit for tha beginning… dat’s if tha beginning ends, lol! Iz it really featurin’ B-32? I feel like tha song ain’t changin’… Oh, finally, he made an appearance at 1:42; I like his “where tha volumes at?” shit; good shit!! I’m catchin’ onta this a lil’ more now dat I’m hearin’ B-32 contribute here and there! Still, this sounds like a random, background track. My Rating: 4.3


10. “They All Die” Feat. B-32 & BG’z
Shit yea, ANOTHA B-32 collaboration! Dat’s three fa him and only two fa Kilo G; will there be anotha Kilo G collab on here? >>> Y’all got tha beats on lock here; they’re interestin’ and upbeat! Tha beginning sounds pretty cool and tha rappin’ (wit tha flow and err-thang) DEFINITELY sounds like Louisiana ta me! Tha hook sounds good, ya dig! Tha start to tha 2nd verse iz brave; definitely “’bout it,” ya dig! LOL, I think they fucked up tha ID here forgettin’ ‘bout tha BG’z ‘cause I hear B.G. on tha 3rd verse here, doin’ a nice job here, ya dig. Interestin’ about people and how “they all die” at one point. My Rating: 4.1


11. “Local 580: Burn ‘Em Like A Bitch” Feat. BG’z, B-32, Kilo G & Mannie Fresh
Tha final song on here… How you gon “burn ‘em like a bitch?” Lemme hear tha “Local 580!” >>> Sounds like it finna be anotha catchy beat here wit tha start! Ooh, it turned into a different form of G-Funk in tha sound. LOL, forgot about tha BG’z on tha feature again (based off of tha mp3 I have)? Shiiid… You know B.G. doin’ tha damn thang on tha 2nd ½ of tha 1st verse right chea. I like tha “lost buku blood” part; good shit, B.G.! And now, I hear B-32 on tha 3rd part right chea! Will Kilo G surprise me on dis shit? Sounds good so far on this part from B-32 right chea! Shit yea, here’s Kilo G on tha 4th part; crazy gangsta shit goin’ on here! DEFINITELY feelin’ it fa a lil’ recovery of excitement right chea!! LOL, iz dat Mannie Fresh on tha 5th part? Sounds good on this shit right chea; he doin’ tha damn thang wit his flow! Nice job wit tha rhymes and now, he handlin’ tha outro ta this shit! My Rating: 4.5

This'll be tha last one from tha marathon today due to tha next review iz from a cassette tape, which I have on Long Island, so I'ma have ta wait 'til I get back there tomorrow.

© 2009 CD Review (Review #214) reviewed on 5.24.2009 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.


01. Intro
With an anticipating imagination, what can I expect fa tha intro? >>> Sounds like random samplin'... Tha "bounce--biggity--bounce..." part tells me that this gon be wit Bounce style? Good intro, yet it gets me anticipated! My Rating: N/A


02. "Bounce Slide Ride"
So this iz what tha intro was introducing me into, lol. Looks like I'll be anticipated to hear it! >>> Your "biiiiiiiitch" parts remind me of DJ Jimi... Sounds like good rappin' wit a long 1st verse... Oh, I think it just went into tha hook 'cause I heard tha title? Good shit still. I like tha real fast rappin'. A lot goin' on here... I like how you want "girbaud jeans" in tha 2nd verse. Nice wit tha repeatin' shit 'cause sometimes, I can't catch everything at first, so hearin' it multiple times helps. LOL @ tha "3rd ward dick/10th ward pussy;" different warded sexual actions, lol! I get tired of whateva that "ba-da-da-da-dah" sample iz throughout some of tha beat, but more during tha ending. Still, this was a great song right chea. Ewe, it ended wit tha "ba-da-da-da-dah..." My Rating: 4.1


03. "Niggaz Ain't Nothing But Niggaz" Feat. B-32 & MC Heavy
Ooh, look at tha length goin' on here!!! Almost a 6 minute song wit a NICE title and 2 featured people, so you KNOW I wanna hear this one!! >>> LOL, B-32 iz tha 1st dude on this shit, and he sounds GREAT on this shit! I like this beat betta than tha previous beat! I like all tha different wards and places wit tha "shoot 'em up" parts. I guess all tha shit repeatin' makes tha length long, and B-32 did his thang wit this shit. Now, MC Heavy wants ta spit some shit... All tha "car jackin' and kidnappin'" iz pretty bad, but people don't wanna stop. Now, B-32 & MC Heavy combining here wit tha "car jackin'/kidnappin'!" Great shit all tha way through. Although people wanna try and "change tha world" (like my latest song), tha title explains it all. My Rating: 4.2
EDIT: There's a lil' mix-up in tha ID's, so I'm gonna say that tha ending was tha "commercial".


04. Commercial
[I screwed up tha preview, so there was none.] >>> Ooh, there's a phone call at tha end... Too bad that bitch-ass iz hatin' on tha Bounce shit. No "biiiiiiiiiiiiiitch," dumb-ass at tha end. My Rating: N/A


05. "Bounce Slide Ride (Radio)"
Oh, it's just a clean version of #2... See #2 fa tha review!


½time: I gotta take a shit; hold on... *Leaves at 11:15 AM* *Returns at 11:26 AM* Okay, based off of 2 songs (pretty much), tha shit sounds GREAT! Lil' Slim, you anotha GREAT rappa outta Louisiana, as well as collaboratin' wit people on yo tape right chea! I'm DEFINITELY lookin' forward to tha rest, ya dig!


06. "Hoes I U's 2 Sweat" Feat. MC Heavy, B-32 & Yella
What's that title (exactly)? Looks good 'cause of tha collaboration! >>> I like tha beat intro here! More "biiiiiitch" shit, lol! I like tha "kickin' it--kickin' it" part. I like tha "want a polo" part too on this shit. I see what tha title iz now... LOL @ "U's" fa "used"; nice. You DEFINITELY did yo thang on this shit, makin' tha hoes smile! Now, B-32 iz here! He doin' his thang, as usual! Tha verse collaborated, and tha shit sounded nice. Sounds like Yella iz at tha end. LOL @ his "pussy smellin'" part; good shit right chea, and NICE collaboration! My Rating: 3.9


07. "Where Your Ward At!!" Feat. PxMxWx
Anotha collaboration!! This time, wit PxMxWx (which I'm gonna hear them fa tha 1st time)! I'm lookin' forward to their shit that I have (which I think their 1st tape I have in my marathon iz called "Legalize "Pass Tha Weed""! Now, let's hear this (looks like an anthem)! >>> A similar type fast beat here... LOL @ tha hook. There's not much of an attitude in it, but it definitely sounded catchy. Fa'got ta mention: Tha 1st verse/intro part was good too. Tha next 2 verses (tha verses are real quick on this song) were GREAT fa this too! Ooh, "'bout to smoke a fast..." on this shit! Now, time to hear PxMxWx!!! Nice short part from tha one dude from PxMxWx (or iz PxMxWx one dude? EDIT: It iz one dude. Shit, I thought it was a few dudes)! Cool "ya heard me. Biatttttttttttch!" part at around 3:10! My Rating: 4.3


08. "The Game Is Cold" Feat. B-32
This should be anotha good one!! >>> Definitely feelin' tha beat here, and it starts wit B-32 this time! He DEFINITELY doin' his thang on this shit; nice job! Feelin' tha typical drug life lyrics from him at all times!! I don't know why they ID'd it as "Cold In The Game" (whoeva I got this from online), but it sounds like this iz tha title track ("The Game Is Cold"). Likin' tha "nigga--ni--niggigty--nigga" parts a WHOLE LOT towards tha 2nd 1/2 of tha 3 minute mark!!! My Rating: 4.4


09. Shot Out!!
Lemme hear what we got... >>> I like how you say "ya heard me;" almost sounds like "ya hoid me," lol. Not bad "shot out", lol. My Rating: N/A


10. Outro
I thought that "shot out" was tha outro...? >>> Sounds like tha intro... I guess nice refresh of what tha intro sounded like... I like how it ended with "goodnight." My Rating: N/A


11. Commercial
Anotha commercial? Shit, this tape knows how to continue, lol! >>> Yea, good thing tha dude was nice this time wit you "bringin' dat Bounce music" to tha table! My Rating: N/A


Overall: Tha review lasted an exact hour. Although there weren't that many songs, it was DEFINITELY a nice tape! Slim, you a GREAT rapper, and I hope you're still around!! Thanx fa puttin' this HOT tape together 'cause you did yo thang, no less bringin' a bunch of featured artists on tracks! If you still alive, keep doin' yo thang!

I wanna know what tha fuck he did back 16 years ago! Now, wit anticipation, here goes my review fa B-32 "I Need A Bag Of Dope"; LUV tha title!! Start Time: 2:48 PM | End Time: 3:23 PM


Quick Note: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0. Each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself with 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) so 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.


01. Slim Tha Don (Intro)
Yea, I'm ready fa this shit right nah!!! >>> Feelin' this beat right here. Tha dude introducin' all tha shit goin' on here just gets me real anticipated fa this shit! My Rating: N/A


02. "I Need A Bag Of Dope" Feat. Ms. Tee
Here we go... And it's 5:28, so you KNOW I'm into hearin' tha whole entire thang!!! >>> He sounds nearly tha same, lol. This shit sounds great. He's always been into tha drugs and shit, so he's always had that drug shit goin' on in his shit. Tha shit iz soundin' good still. I'm only at 1:52, and I'm still feelin' this! Wow, Ms. Tee sounds TIGHT on this shit too! Luv her flow!! Great shit still! LOL @ at 4:12 wit tha "MAN!!," part; she's a beast! Ms. Tee wit tha GREAT ending!! I felt like this song neva ends, but it all good! Great ending from tha guys too!! My Rating: 4.6


03. "Shake That Ass Like A Salt Shaker"
A decade before Lil' Jon & The East Side Boyz & Ying Yang Twins did their version. Lemme hear your version... >>> Good, tha beat iz good fa a fast beat here! Tha hook iz good, so thumbs up. Luv tha constant "suckin' and lickin'" parts! LOL @ tha "talk sober" part, no less repeatin'! Catchy verses and thumbs up to tha repetitiveness! Curious, who's payin' attention to you (fan wise) when you're rappin' at this point? How many people were takin' you serious? I know a lotta people hate on you now. My Rating: 4.2


04. "Mannie Fresh Beat 01"
LOL, an instrumental? What can I expect from Fresh in '93? >>> LOL, it's his old sound (so doesn't sound like his current sound). I can't say much 'cause nothin's really goin' on... I like it though. My Rating: 3.5


½time: A REAL GREAT start fa an old CD/tape!! I wonder what you have left fa me 'cause your old shit seems anticipating!


05. "Mannie Fresh Beat 02"
LOL, I'm gettin' hungry fa more tracks than beats... >>> Sounds like random samplin' in this one, and this one offers more on tha beat. A slight touch better wit this beat. My Rating: 3.6


06. "Iriy Iriy"
What's that title? >>> I thought tha title was a girl's name, lol. I guess it's to get in a mood since you're sayin' "get 'iriy iriy'." Anyway, it's catchy so far. Kinda too repetitive, but I'mma try and have my catchy mood in mind. Ooh @ tha "Baton Rouge niggaz gettin' 'iriy iriy'," at 2:44 on tha song! It finally calmed down at 3:21, lol. My Rating: 3.9


07. "Mannie Fresh Beat 03"
Anotha one? And it bein' 6:52?!? >>> Sounds like nice mixin', although I'm not really lookin' forward to sittin' here fa anotha 5 and 3/4's minutes listenin' to just this... I like tha "ya heard me" part at 2:49! Oh no, at 3:21, it slowin' down. SMH @ "all tha gays grab a gay?" It just said "syke," but it did slow down... It's a pretty good slow beat, although I thought I was gonna hate on it. Now, it ain't your style, but I'll just say it's good 'cause you ain't rappin' on it. Now, when rankin' 2 beats/tracks at once, tha ratings are combined. Tha 1st one I was gonna give it a 3.4 ('cause of me criticizin' tha long length), and tha 2nd one I was gonna give a 3.7, so combined, it's a 7.1, which cut in 1/2, it's 3.55, rounded up to 3.6: My Combined Rating: 3.6


08. "I Had To Rob A Nigga"
Tha last song... I hope fa some GREATNESS!!! >>> Slow type of beat, but it sounds great! Hoping to get my mood back up afta that last beat! Catchy hook here, as it's watz good. Wow, LUV tha "rob a nigga...fulla dat coke" part, and tha "shoot it up, shoot it up" part; GREAT!! STRAIGHT HOTNESS from tha beginning to tha 2:00 mark!!! Ooh, tha "I'm a dope fiend" part too gets a plus from me! A lil' scary thinkin' on tha next part wit tha "just hit tha streets, and I don't mind dyin'" line. I just think it's scary... It's like, you don't mind your life bein' taken away? Iz it 'cause tha drugs are givin' you a good feelin'? Likin' your "gimme a bag of dope" part, as it goes WELL wit tha album title and tha No. 2 joint! Oh shit, that went fast fa a song wit 4:28 on tha length. Still, LUVED IT!! My Rating: 4.4


Overall: Well, despite there bein' 3 instrumentals, this was DEFINITELY a HOT tape fa me! Birdman REALLY put it down under than B-32 alias during tha 90's!! Well, I don't know what to say about future references... I know I don't have anotha B-32 CD (under that name), so either way, live off this HOT tape!
