Review #981: Dolamite "Ruff-N-Da Ghetto"

Reviewed on 6.08.2011 (Review #981)




Next up in my marathon, it’s Dolamite “Ruff-N-Da Ghetto”; how will it go? Start Time: 8:30 PM | End Time: 8:58 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. 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. Intro
Startin’ dis thang off wit… >>> Tha “good dro” almost sounds like “intro,” lol; I like tha lil’ rappin’ wit tha repeatin’ and this kick-ass G-Funk sound!! My Rating: N/A


02. “Big Ballin’ With Red Rum” Feat. Big Slack, M&M Slim & T Sneed
Don’t think I eva heard these features; lookin’ forward ta seein’ what dis iz about! >>> Sounds good; I like this “Queen D” female (not sourced) in tha hook! Ooh, she’s rappin’ a lil’, soundin’ good wit tha way her vocals sound wit her delivery! Catchy anthem fa tha “Red” Rummers, lol. Tha 2nd verse sounds good; I feel like this iz a good, relaxin’-type joint dat I’m likin’. Ooh, “in my ride, gettin’ real, real high;” tight shit!! Now, some odd-soundin’ vocals like tha female’s rappin’, lol. Tha following verse sounds aight; this ain’t too bad, since it’s on a calm “tip.” Ooh, tha female came back wit tha rappin’! Also, a nice lil’ outro dat sounds like Max Minelli, lol. My Rating: 4.3


03. “Ruff-N-Da Ghetto”
Let’s hear tha title track wit just you on it! >>> Nice lil’ production goin’ on, here… Rhymes are good for tha “ghetto,” here; you got shit on lock, just like anotha great, N.O. rapper! Not too bad for a joint, overall; you doin’ a nice job wit this hot beat goin’ on, here… My Rating: 4.1


04. “Conclusion (Uptown 3rd Ward)”
Even reppin’ RedRum Records, here. >>> Sounds catchy wit a female in tha background, too. Ooh, tha beat’s creepin’ up; you got some surprises, here! Tha rhymes are soundin’ betta, here; you’re reppin’ fa “anotha town” hard, here! Tha hood’s gotta luv dis shit; “3rd Ward” found its place in music! My Rating: 4.2


05. “Spitting Buku Game” Feat. T Sneed
“Boo-Koo” iz spelled “B-U-K-U,” not tha fake way Yung Joc wanted ta spell it!! >>> Sounds like a regular, good, New Orleans-type Rap song; good collaboration wit T Sneed, once again! My Rating: 4.1


06. “Niggas From Uptown” Feat. A.S.P.
Ooh, a collaboration wit A.S.P.; lookin’ forward ta hearin’!! >>> This iz much betta; such a great group ta collab wit!! “Tha kings of tha muthafuckin’ South;” can’t deny A.S.P.!! Nothin’ but consistent rhymes dat are tight as fuck, comin’ through on a betta-soundin’ beat, too! My Rating: 4.6


07. “Klan” Feat. Luk’ee & Face Forever
Lokee or this Luk’ee dude? Anyway, looks like anotha mega collabo—what, only 2:04 on tha length? >>> Tha beat even sounds hot; why tha short-ass length? Instantly comin’ through wit some good singin’, here; definitely inta tha whole funky sound… Prolly could’ve expected more than just singin’ but this iz still cool… My Rating: 4.3


½time: Looks like you got yourself a consistent CD, here; a 4.3 for tha CD rating!!! You doin’ yourself a nice job, ya dig?


08. “Bring It On”
>>> This sounds good; catchy hook and you know you have good production behind you as well as a catchy-soundin’ female. This whole joint iz fulla consistent rhymes from you, doin’ ya thang to tha fullest! My Rating: 4.3


09. “Caught Up”
>>> Feelin’ tha beat start! You got tha singin’ style on lock fa tha hook! Nothin’ but catchiness comin’ from your tongue; let’s see how tha rest goes… Good rappin’; can’t deny these rhymes, although I don’t have much ta say… You even got a long beat outro ta end dis shit off… My Rating: 4.2


10. “6 Feet Deep”
What’ll this be like? >>> Sounds like I have a lotta interest, based off tha beginning beat! More Bounce-soundin’ vocals from you, here; sounds catchy tha more you hear it! This whole “six feet deep, my mutha” shit sounds hella catchy in tha hook; you got shit on lock! Thumbs up fa showin’ your “mutha” much luv on this record; nice job wit tha rhymes, too! My Rating: 4.4


11. “Hustler”
>>> LOL, this iz kinda repetitive for a 3+-minute song but jams…; lol, nothin’ but chantin’! Because tha intro was an intro and was short, I won’t consider dat a song but this can be considered one… My Rating: 3.8


12. “Stress Got Me Tripping”
Thought tha title said “streets”… >>> This iz anotha smooth-soundin’ joint; decent wit good content. My Rating: 3.9


13. “Holla At Me”
>>> Catchy vocals from you, here; anotha laidback-soundin’ song, lol? At least tha kick-ass-soundin’ beats from Mike Dogg & DJ Tee are holdin’ shit down! My Rating: 3.7


14. “Lil’ 5’ 0” Feat. Lil’ Elt & Big Slack
Iz it Lil’ Elt’s song featuring Big Slack & you ‘cause you’re last on tha feature? >>> For a 7:31-length song, this sounds like it gon be good…; it feels like a perfect life when hearin’ dis—before tha A-Tune and all dat gay-ass shit goin’ on in tha music business right now! LOL @ all tha “fuck you, Mr. Officer;” outta nowhere, this attitude’s comin’ through ta hold thangz down!! Even some nice background vocals from tha lady, at times; this iz a nice song, overall, even though I thought tha 1st dude really held it down! My Rating: 4.4


15. Outro Feat. M&M Slim
A feature? Let’s see what kinda song—or whateva—I’ll expect this time… >>> Must be a regular “outro” although a song’s playin’ in tha background… Whoever’s talkin’, here, sounds hella catchy wit tha dialect! “Ya hurd me!” Yea, some extra people comin’ through fa some shout outs! Definitely what’s up ta have multiple thangz goin’ on, here! My Rating: N/A


Overall: Nice job wit this CD; pretty catchy, since you held tha whole thang down wit your producers and tha homies dat came through on tha CD!
