Review #1,432: KarlWayne "2 Years Later"

Reviewed on 1.31.2015 (Review #1,432)

Got one more review b4 this month ends… I have to say, with tha reviewz I’ve been doin’ lately, there hasn’t been that many. Not only do I work a full-time job, but at tha same time, nobody fucks wit me, anymore. I mean, I’m super busy, but for those that say they fuck wit me, and I don’t get their music, it’s like, really? To me, that’s not defining true value of your product and you definitely don’t value me, whatsoever! So, lemme take it to an artist that values me. He sent me his CD on Facebook as soon as it came out, like a real artist from Louisiana should! I first heard him back on April 28, 2009, on fellow Gardererz, Yung Yola & D.$.G.’s 99 Wayz 2 Grind CD, back when he was known as K.O.. He was locked up at tha time and I would communicate with him while he was in jail. I used to manage his MySpace page, back when that was poppin’… Sponsored by Street Certified Muzic, here goes my review for KarlWayne 2 Years Later, and yes, it’s two years after he got outta jail, already! Oh, and, what’s tha “591799” on tha back cover? Start Time: 7:38 PM | End Time: 9:00 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 use tha word “swag” frequently, have auto-tune in your vocals, or talk about nothin’ but money and hoes (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

Link To CD: http://www.datpiff.com/Karlwayne-2-Years-Later-mixtape.682867.html

01. Intro

Let’s see how we gon start this thang off… >>> Straight out tha jail cells… Live broadcast from tha pen? Quiet and anticipating! Tha clashing of tha cell doors remind me of tha Kings Park Psychiatric Center I visit on Long Island, NY, where you mysteriously hear tha doors clash! Yes, it’s haunted by ghosts! I have yet to get audio and witness a scream there, lol! My Rating: N/A

02. “How That Go”

Wonder what this gon be like, produced by Ruffin? >>> Hearin’ tha beginning beat sound and it’s soundin’ like those dayz when I used to always listen to Louisiana rap, lol… Beat’s definitely pure and on a Baton Rouge level; gotta feel it! Also, you’re doin’ a nice job wit tha hook; fuckin’ catchy, especially wit tha title repeatin’! Oh, seems like years ago when I was crazy about Baton Rouge and all dat, lol! Here you are on tha 1^st verse and it sounds nice; I like how you say, “KarlWayne,” on tha adlib, twice! Gangsta shit, here; glad you got this quality and you know I had ta take tha time out ta review it, despite workin’ today and tomorrow, 4 – 11 AM! Here’s tha 2^nd verse and you still bringin’ dat gangsta shit to tha table; nice! Diggin’ your aggressive attitude, here, as well; keep it goin’! Ooh @ tha beat stoppin’ @ 2:24 and you slaughterin’ tha beat; nice! My Rating: 4.8

03. “Rap Sheet”

Likin’ these titles, already! This one’s produced by TTyme; stylized like dat? Neva heard of ‘em… >>> Oh, so that’s your “DOC number;” I see… Beat sounds pretty nice; anotha pure-soundin’ track, once again! And, tha hook’s pretty nice, as well; thumbs up fa comin’ through wit an analysis of your “rap sheet!” Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and I gotta dig how you cuttin’ ‘em, if they cross ya! Hope ya do dat fa me if I need a favor, ya dig? Consistent shit fa Baton Rouge; diggin’ dat sound you bringin’ to tha streetz of Gardere Lane! Tha 2^nd verse sounds nice, too, strictly slaughterin’ ‘em wit dat gangsta shit, once again! My Rating: 4.5

04. “My Own” feat. Kam

A newbie with them producin’ tha track as well! I’m sure it bangz!! >>> Luv how your intros take a few seconds of quietness and then, they slam wit dat pureness! Hearin’ tha beat intro and it’s nice and quiet, here, wit a spooky, Baton Rouge-soundin’ start! Sounds like it’s tha ‘90s, undaground, Louisiana rap, here, wit this beat intro… Afta :49, we have tha hook: Kam iz a singer, here, and it’s soundin’ nice; I can dig it… Like I said, I feel like it’s tha ‘90s with Skull Duggrey or somethin’, wit how this sounds…! Now, here you are on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit some nice rhymes, tryna get outta dat jail cell; I feel ya! Tha 2^nd verse sounds good; I’m diggin’ what you’re spittin’, here… Just try not ta get caught up too much in sendin’ R.I.P. shout outs, though; gotta keep it movin’… No 3^rd verse, here; just a nice, long outro with Kam randomly singin’ notes and tha beat jammin’ nicely… My Rating: 4.4

05. “I Got It” feat. Menace & Gage

Neva heard of these dudes, luckily… Iz that you on tha production (listed as K.O., your former stage name)? Whateva this iz, I’m definitely anticipatin’ all tha unknown, though 5:30 on tha length? Can you pull through? >>> Definitely likin’ tha beat, here; catchy keys! Nice gangsta shit on tha hook, as you have “this tooley;” nice! Definitely diggin’ tha 2^nd ½ of tha hook when you repeat tha title, with this beat pumpin’ in ya veins! Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse and it sounds nice; diggin’ you and your consistent gangsta shit, as always! Hearin’ tha Menace dude on tha 2^nd verse and it sounds like dat great shit from Baton Rouge/G-Lane dat I would luv, on a first listen! Nice shit; gotta luv tha hood of BR at all times! I don’t care who you iz; I got luv fa ya! Wit dat bein’ said, dat Menace dude go hard! Hope he goes far and hope we connect in tha future, on a serious note! Like, business-wise! Here comes Gage on tha 3^rd verse, with a perfect way ta start tha verse off wit dis gun shit! His name says it all, so he here ta stay in tha hood! Nice reppin’ fa dem “treyz!” Catchy voice fa dis gangsta and I’m diggin’ how he has hunger and aggression in his voice; go, Gage! I do have ta say, fa 5:30 on tha length, this was nowhere near boring!! Y’all definitely held it down!! My Rating: 4.6

06. “EDDU” feat. J-Bae Bay-Bae

Not sure if I stylized his name right, but on DatPiff, this iz accidentally #7; I’m goin’ wit tha back cover for everything… “Jay Bae Bay” iz how he’s stylized on tha filename, but I’m goin’ wit tha back cover… Anyway, should be real nice wit Ruffin on tha beat! Think this tha 1^st official song I’ve heard wit “EDDU” in tha title? Definitely lookin’ forward but before I get into it, lol, I can just imagine tha people up here, if they hear me say dat; they’d be so shocked, lol! I’m a Shift Leader and a Music Leader; they won’t catch on for years! I mean, we’re already years into EDDU, too! >>> I like tha lil’ talkin’ in tha beginning wit your Baton Rouge-born voice and shit; nice… Tha beat’s definitely pure, once again! LOL, what a hook; gotta feel it! Thought it was more of a threat, but it’s more of a sexual thang, here! Gotta luv how you repeat tha 2^nd ½ of tha hook wit tha title; gotta keep goin’ and goin’ and goin’ and goin’ and goin’, lol!! Here you are on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit some nice shit, just engagin’ in dem X-rated activities! Sounds nice on this beat; I’ll keep followin’ you! You don’t need 100,000 followers; you’re fine tha way you are, right now, as far as your status! Hearin’ this Jay dude on tha 2^nd verse and he sounds good; catchy voice and yeah, he said it: “JayDae Baby!” LOL, tha 3^rd hook ain’t do tha repeatin’, but had Jay go, “Eat up…! Eat up…!” ROFL @ you at tha end, in your regular, calm voice: “Aight… Aight…” My Rating: 4.4

07. “Ain’t Coming Down” feat. Vicboi

B-Mayne (dash or no dash?) on tha beat, here, with a nice-lookin’ collab ta anticipate! >>> Definitely purer than pure wit tha beat start, here; gotta anticipate it!! Gotta luv how there’s Baton Rouge injected in tha beat at all times!! It’s like a heavy dose!! Wit dat bein’ said, we have a nice hook from Karl, here; sounds catchy! Vicboi on tha 1^st verse and he’s doin’ a nice job wit tha rappin’, here; just luv dat southern style in his voice! Here you are on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit dat shit we gotta hear! Glad you always keep it G, and I must admit, seven songs in, and I’m so glad you’re not braggin’ about money or any of dat bullshit! So glad fa dat!! No wonder why I’m enjoyin’ this review so much!! Ooh @ 2:35; luv how tha beat just stopped fa a sec. and you continued on! My Rating: 4.4

08. “Iron” feat. Needy Nee

Accidentally #11 on tha DatPiff tracklisting… Anyway, Ruffin doin’ tha beat, this time, and I’m anticipatin’ this one! Prolly a G-Lane G song wit tha beat slammin’ in ya in an addictive way!! >>> Dat Baton Rouge quality in tha beat dat I luv; nice job, once again, Ruffin!! Future producer; just don’t sell out!! Ooh, much catchier than I thought this was gon be!! Just luv when you repeat tha title on tha 2^nd ½ of tha hook; that’s tha key fa a catchy-ass Baton Rouge song!! Fuck, your CD jammin’ soooooooooo hard!!! And, we got Needy on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit some gutta shit fa this G-Lane! Now, she’s entered her 30’s, keepin’ it goin’! Can’t believe she was only 24 when I first heard her; where’d tha time go? Here you are on tha 2^nd verse and you got this G-shit goin’ on, non-stop! Great job wit tha verse, but that fuckin’ hook’s soooooooooooooooo addiiiiiiiiiictiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive!!! Just luv dat 2^nd ½ of it!!! My Rating: 4.9

½time: Whoo, this CD’s too jammin’!!! Just really luv how you bring your A-game at all times, here!! Tha production iz so on an A+ level; A++!!! Almost all of your features I’ve neva heard before, and all dem dudes go hard!!! And, most importantly, you got some tight-ass verses, as well as some addictive, catchy-ass hooks!!! Keep it up, bruh! You’re at a hot 4.6 for tha CD rating, currently; pure rating!!!

09. “So Dumb” feat. Vicboi & Needy Nee

Again, it says that K.O. produced tha track… Either way, I’m anticipatin’ this collab, as well! >>> Sounds like a Baton Rouge hood anthem; gotta rep fa dem hoodz! Might’ve remembered this from a sample you might’ve given me, at times, last year; nice shit! Tha hook’s catchy wit this beat; gotta luv how you holdin’ G-Lane down to tha fullest! This gotta be tha hottest CD of 2015; props fa startin’ tha year off real nice!!! Here you are on tha 1^st verse and you’re comin’ through wit some catchy shit; you’re real sick wit it, makin’ me nod my head non-stop! Keepin’ this shit goin’ wit Vicboi on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit some catchy shit! Dat voice definitely holds tha hoods of Gardere down!! “I really do my shit;” always! And yea, “Ain’t no pussy in dat click,” when it comes to dat Lane! I mean, there’s only two that are pussy ta me. One’s all stuck-up, stubborn and afraid of BPMs, while there’s anotha one who randomly deleted me and unfollowed me from Facebook, Twitter & Instagram all ‘cause I sent them their awards. It’s like, really? Can’t get any mo “pussy” than dat!! Back to tha positive, here: Needy on tha 3^rd verse, comin’ through, consistently rippin’ up tha track on this beat!! Wow, neva stoppin’ anytime soon!! Wow, she just keeps goin’ and goin’ and goin’!! That was definitely a nice and consistent verse!!! My Current Rating: 4.7

EDIT: Forgot I reviewed this on tha I Love My Hood mixtape…

10. “Ride Or Die”

I have ta say, my back’s killin’ me while I’m doin’ this review. However, tha music’s too tight to where I continue without stoppin’! This next one’s produced by C Nile; can’t wait ta hear it!! >>> A fade-in intro? Awkward, but tha beat sounds pretty nice, and it’s only 2:32 on tha length… Likin’ tha beat, here; only one verse this gon be? Catchy hook; gotta hold onta KarlWayne, ya dig? Hearin’ tha verse and it sounds nice; great-soundin’ song fa somethin’ a lil’ slower… My Rating: 4.2

11. “Up There”

I know I reviewed this one last year, on that one compilation disc you were featured on. I remember this bein’ so catchy… What I had said, previously: Nice beat from Nunu James, and here’s Karl on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit a crew! Feels great ta hear this and now that I’m actively hangin’ out, I can feel tha whole crew-like rhymes of havin’ multiple people witchu! Tha hook ain’t “bullshit;” it just sounds catchy, and a lot catchier wit tha “fuck that, get it up there” shit that repeats!! Great “shit!” Tha 2^nd verse sounds pretty nice, too! Nice reppin’, my boy! My Current Rating: 4.6

12. “Some More” feat. Ryco Hu$$le & Big June

K.O. production. And, to go with what I said before, make it 3: Not really likin’ that Ryco ain’t “wanna be a part of hearin’ why B-Real ruined my Louisiana passion.” It’s like, you can’t be afraid! That’s why, I’m a Shift Leader! And, I take risks, not hide away! Anyway, lemme see what we got, here… >>> Really likin’ tha beat start, here; nice hook from you, too, K.O., lol! Diggin’ how you on a mission fa “mo!” Tha 1^st verse sounds pretty nice, here; props fa holdin’ tha hood down, as always! Hearin’ tha 2^nd from Ryco… it’s acceptable, except these stupid-ass “money” obsessions; that don’t go wit this CD! It’s not like I’m gettin’ any or any music, anyway, so I could give a fuck less! Only 24 seconds left and there’s a 3^rd verse: Big June (an “E” missing on tha back cover?)… He sounds nice on this shit; great shit fa only 24 seconds! My Rating: 4.2

13. “Ask About Me” feat. BluBlack

Previously reviewed… A Q-Red-produced track, here. Though I still resist leaving feedback (like, it’s more normal for an actual penis to randomly appear), I think this sounds good, as always. Nice job wit you on tha hook; hook almost sounds a lil’ like some older tracks from others, but you gotta feel it! Here you are on tha 1^st verse, too, comin’ through, spittin’ in a great, post-jail kinda way! Lots of “eat dat dick up” shit ‘round 1:19; gotta threaten ‘em wit your “dick.” Got Blu on tha 2^nd verse, and he sounds real great, as always! Really diggin’ that he always still smokes, as well as feelin’ like tha coolest dude in dat Lane! My Current Rating: 4.4

14. “Bodied” feat. G-Lane Steve

A Hammer-produced track, here; don’t think I’ve eva heard of him… Also, this should be a nice collab wit tha Stevenson on tha feature, lol… >>> Definitely diggin’ tha slow, creepy-soundin’ beat intro!! It got louder once tha hook came in, and this sounds nice! Diggin’ tha hook, as you hold it down to tha fullest! Gotta luv how G-Lane Steve starts tha 1^st verse off wit dem “chewies” and shit like dat! Good shit, tha whole way ‘round… Here you are on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit some nice shit, as always! Gotta luv how you holdin’ it down fa tha gangstaz at all times! And, this beat definitely goes great with it! What tha hell? What happened? There’s 24 seconds of silence at tha end; why, lol? My Rating: 4.3

15. “Bitch Do” feat. J-Bae Bay-Bae

Back to this anticipatin’ feature and Ruffin on tha beat; whoot, whoot!! >>> Beat sounds catchy; it sounds less-energetic than other tracks he’s produced but it’s still nice. Tha hook sounds catchy wit this title and all this shit repeatin’; “ride dat dick,” lol… Nice job wit tha hook and 1^st verse, so far, Mr. JayDae… He holdin’ it down witchu, creatin’ some catchiness… And, here you are on tha 2^nd verse, wit your “Tolerance on zero;” gotta feel it! LOL @ strokin’ tha “pistol;” you know! Damn, 12 seconds of silence at tha end… My Rating: 4.3

16. “Fucked Up” feat. Needy Nee

Ooh, tha “Up There” producer on this (Nunu James); can’t wait ta hear this one, too! >>> Beat sounds pretty nice; great sound, once again! LOL, I tried to guess tha hook and say, “You got me fucked up;” I was close, lol! It’s, “Bitch, you got me all tha way, all tha way, all tha way fucked up!” Nice job wit tha hook and you holdin’ down tha 1^st verse, as well; good shit! Now, we got Needy on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit great shit, once again! It’s all about lettin’ out tha inner-gangsta in ya! LOL, she sure shoved in tha final bar of her verse, lol! My Rating: 4.2

17. “Out My Top” feat. Bizzak Man & C4

Endin’ it wit a K.O. production… C-4 (with a dash) iz a group consisting of Piper, Ryco Hu$$le & Trouble T. However, just got a friend request from this C4 (without tha dash), also from BR! Regardless of anything, I’m anticipated ta hear this four-minute track wit Bizzak on tha feature! >>> Whoa @ tha beginning beat; kinda shocked me outta nowhere wit its distortion! Holy, distortion; luv it!! Wait, it’s really, actually fucked up!! Even when I try and listen to it on DatPiff, tha audio’s all fucked…! Wow, what happened to tha file? At least I can hear it… As far as tha hook, it’s pretty nice how y’all “out [y’all] top!” Iz dat Bizzak on tha hook? That gon be my guess? Here you are on tha 1^st verse and it sounds great wit all tha “bruh” parts; nice! You did a nice job deliverin’ tha 1^st verse! If I had ta guess tha 2^nd verse, it’s Bizzak? LOL, it’s so distorted… I’m diggin’ this gangsta perspective on tha 2^nd verse, though… Tha 3^rd verse sounds okay, as well, here… My Rating: 4.3

Overall: Well, I have to say, this was a really-impressive CD, Mr. KarlWayne!! You’ve neva been soft or even average; every song I’ve heard from you’s had, mainly, original production, as well as it bein’ a hot banga!! You’ve neva disappointed me and this whole entire CD definitely went hard!! Tha 1^st ½ struck me more, but you kept tha consistency goin’, as well as keepin’ me awake! Props fa doin’ dat!! Good job wit most of tha features and 95% of tha producers!! Keep up tha great work, my boy!!

Review #1,414: Street Certified Muzic Presents "I Love My Hood (Da Mixtape)"

Reviewed on 8.10.2014 & 8.11.2014 (Review #1,414)

Got one more review before a record label comes to visit me! This review gon be my 1,414^th review: Street Certified Muzic Presents I Love My Hood (Da Mixtape)! A label by KarlWayne from G-Lane, this looks like it gon be a Gardere Lane compilation? I will find out when I review this! But, real quick: This ain’t sellin’ any copies in tha hood? Tha total length of tha CD’s 1:20:06, only six seconds longer than tha maximum CD length! What gives? Start Time: 9:59 PM | End Time: 7:50 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 two artists who claimed their “money [was] long,” 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. Jigg-Three Feat. Lil’ Josh “My Neighborhood”

Looks like this gon be great ta start this off! Who iz this Josh? This ain’t tha “Jigga Juice” one, iz it? >>> A real-nice hook!! Definitely feelin’ this beat and this G-Lane vibe! LOL, tha dayz of when I fucked wit Louisiana music tough; surprised niggaz still fuck wit me… But, mentionin’ tha label, I think there’s true luck wit reviewin’ G-Lane CDs before real-great moments occur! Like, I reviewed tha The Big Picture CD, and I got called in for my 1^st job interview tha next day, which later became my job! Now, I’m reviewin’ this and tomorrow, a label’s comin’ ta do a magazine article on me!! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse (Lil’ Josh?) and it’s tight; great vibes fa tha 225! That hook’s just so catchy wit tha “In my neiiiighborhooood” shit repeatin’! Tha 2^nd verse has a nice voice and shit goin’ on. However, it sounds a lil’ off-beat throughout tha 1^st part of tha verse… A long beat outro, here; nice ta have… My Rating: 4.6

02. BluBlack Feat. Hannibal & Ar’Jay “F.W.M.”

That “Don’t F.W.M.” song? *Checks* Yup, with Ar’Jay on this joint, too. My Current Rating: 3.4

03. KarlWayne “Up There”

Neva gave any of your post-jail songs a review, other than “I’m Thugging”, which debuted on my playlist a year ago today; crazy! So, I’m lookin’ forward ta hearin’ this and givin’ it an actual review! >>> Nice tease in tha beginning, as well as tha “General” dude creatin’ an intro! Nice beat from I dunno who, but here’s Karl on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit a crew! Feels great ta hear this and now that I’m actively hangin’ out, I can feel tha whole crew-like rhymes of havin’ multiple people witchu! Tha hook ain’t “bullshit;” it just sounds catchy, and a lot catchier wit tha “fuck that, get it up there” shit that repeats!! Great “shit!” Tha 2^nd verse sounds pretty nice, too! Damn, mixin’? Must be mixed by someone like Chilly Chill or somethin’? Sounds like those kinda effects; weird how I remember ‘em from at least a ½ decade ago! Nice reppin’, my boy! My Rating: 4.4

04. Lil’ Josh “Street Nigga”

Yeah! >>> Interestin’ beat; beat seems a lil’ slower than a faster G-Lane vibe… “I don’t give a fuck if they sign me;” a nice, underground perspective, here. I’ve always felt tha same way about myself; I’ve neva wanted to blow up. This label comin’ to interview me tomorrow’s a great opportunity; I dunno what’ll happen! Exposure’s great, though I always wanna be an undaground nigga. Tha 1^st verse sounds pretty good, here; props fa Josh fa representin’! Tha 2^nd verse has G-shit in it; diggin’ it… My Rating: 4.0

05. Drien Feat. KarlWayne “Play With Me”

Looks anticipatin’… >>> Nice screwed sample on tha hook about bein’ a “gangsta!” Hearin’ Drien on tha 1^st verse, and it almost sounds like that Young Maniac dude, I think? It’s been a minute… As for me hearin’ this, it sounds pretty nice… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse (KarlWayne?) and it’s just as good; really diggin’ tha G-shit in tha rhymes! Can’t escape dat “choppa!” My Rating: 4.2

06. Beezy Bird Feat. BluBlack & Needy Nee “Bring ‘Em Out”

Yeah!! >>> Sounds kinda good in tha beginning, except tha “money long” shit… Hearin’ Beezy on tha 1^st verse, and it sounds like tha good ol’ times of me bein’ 20 & 21, when I used to fuck wit G-Lane tha most. Diggin’ how he brought back tha “I’m drinkin’, and I’m smokin’” shit that Down Bad had; way ta go, Beezy! You still a real-cool dude! Got Blu on tha 2^nd verse; still soundin’ good wit his delivering-“X” rhymes! He even said, “Fulla dem pillz;” yay @ 28! Keep poppin’! I’m now 26 and I’m finally hangin’ out at least once a week, includin’ gettin’ fulla dat shit! Needy slipped in on tha 2^nd ½ of tha 2^nd verse; sounds good fa these Gardere streetz… My Rating: 4.3

07. Yola No Soda “Trap House”

New name? You know how he does! So great to get high at least once a week, now-a-dayz! I can’t believe I did today, worked, and have been up since 3:14 AM—that’s 19 hours, without a nap!! Lots of motivation and perseverance!! >>> Not much time on this track, here, but it’s soundin’ good fa a start. That mixin’ can get confusing in tha beginning, between playin’ parts and rewindin’ it back. Anyway, tha 1^st verse’s pretty good, and tha hook sounds catchy, especially fa tha “trap!” How can you not luv Yola? Tha 2^nd verse starts off good wit “eatin’ stuffin’ every day like it’s Thanksgiving.” Consistent rhymes; gotta luv err-thang that comes outta his mouth! My Rating: 4.5

08. Bando Bert Feat. Jigg-Three “Trap”

Lookin’ forward ta this collab, too!! >>> Beat sounds a lil’ different, here, still with a club vibe, and it’s nice. Tha hook’s pretty catchy; really diggin’ that voice! Delivery’s catchy as fuck, once again! Tha 2^nd verse’s great; really diggin’ this voice, once again! Sounds great wit this delivery; oh, I fuckin’ luv it!! Gonna be close between tha Yola song and this; who will win tha tie-breaker? My Rating: 4.5

09. Kris “Boot Nigga”

Small name; could lead to a lot? >>> A female? Sounds like a watered-down version of what could be bounce music, but tha rappin’ on tha 1^st verse ain’t too bad… Tha hook’s straight; likin’ tha repetitive parts… Now, tha 2^nd verse sounds more feminine? Iz a feature missing? Anotha decent verse… Tha 3^rd verse iz whateva, too; a lil’ boring, but it’s somethin’ that’s listenable and okay, at least. My Rating: 3.5

10. Bizzak Man Feat. KarlWayne & Vic Boi “Mind Right”

Here’s Bizzak (spelled like that, I was originally told? Y’all have it as “Blizack”, lol…), with a nice lineup! Lookin’ forward ta hearin’ this joint! >>> Kickin’ it off wit a KarlWayne verse; pretty nice! Catchy rhymes wit his “mentality!” Some singin’ on tha hook (Bizzak?)? Interestin’ catch to this track; props fa tha cool voices! Here’s tha 2^nd verse (Vic Boi?), comin’ through wit a lotta “blue-black” references, lol. Yeah, it now sounds like a Bizzak Man verse, on tha 3^rd verse, here! Lots of catchy rhymes; sounds like tha hidden Baton Rouge version of Stalley, with tha delivered rhymes, here! Nice job, overall! My Rating: 4.2

½time: So far, pretty nice and consistent! Really diggin’ how theres’s so many different artists, on tha tracks! Big ups to err-body on this CD, comin’ through wit their great voices, deliveries and song styles! Tha average CD rating’s at a 4.2, currently; how will it end, lol? I hate to cut it short fa a sec, but I’m really tired, and need to lay down fa a lil’ bit… Takin’ a break at 10:43 AM, almost 19 ½ hours to tha minute! We’ll see what time I wake up! *Takes break* Damn, I had a broken-up sleep, tha whole time; I couldn’t stay up, so it’s now 7:07 AM on August 11… Either way, I’m glad I’m awake, though I got only five hours ‘til my special visit!

11. G-Lane Steve Feat. KarlWayne “Window”

Don’t think I’ve heard of tha main artist, though I think we might be Facebook friends… >>> Sounds like mo great shit from tha undaground; nice beginning, though I still don’t think that’s cool mixing, by providing a sneak peek in tha beginning. That shit started on Lil’ Phat’s Death Before Dishonor and should’ve just ended there! Feelin’ this hook wit tha whole “peekin’ out tha window” shit! And, tha 1^st verse’s kinda dry on tha delivery. Also, bad mixing from 1:10 – 1:19; sounded like skipping, instead. Shit @ 1:40 – 1:48 wit tha mixing, again! I don’t mind tha rapper on tha 1^st verse, but he doesn’t have any energy in his voice… LOL @ Mr. Karl on tha 2^nd verse, “Duckin’ from tha cops.” LOL, if you’re me, on dat kush, and you’re roamin’ around an abandoned area, you see a cop outside, and you just pull your camera out; worked fa me! Just act like you’re gettin’ footage! No wonder why I’m a Lucky Dog! Shit @ 3:12 – 3:20; stupid ‘skip-mixin’’! My Rating: 4.3 (a generous rating ‘cause of tha catchy hook)

12. Ryco Hu$$le Feat. Piper Rogers “I Kept Quiet”

Name changes, here: Ryco Hu$$le originally went by D.$.G., and Piper Rogers was just Piper. Both of them were a part of tha group, C-4. Now, here’s a portion! >>> This one starts off not blended, which sounds betta… “No regrets;” that’s right, even wit tha continuous amount of shit I’ve dealt with! I guess all that shit I dealt with lead up to tha label visiting me? Either way, hearin’ Hussle on tha hook and all this “I do it all again” shit sounds good; catchy hook… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse, and I’m diggin’ tha street vibes from him; you know what it iz… Catchy rhymes; didn’t sound like typical shit err-body else spits, so I appreciate him fa bein’ in a different lane, but stayin’ in dat Lane! On tha 2^nd verse, too? I must’ve forgot about Piper’s voice (unless he’s on tha hook?)… Either way, this was before Yola got released, accordin’ ta tha “Free Yola” shit. Glad this anotha good verse, too; can’t complain… My Rating: 4.2

13. KarlWayne Feat. BluBlack “Ask About Me”

Should be interestin’! >>> A Q-Red-produced track, here. Though I still resist leaving feedback, I think this sounds good, as always. Nice job wit Karl on tha hook; hook almost sounds a lil’ like some older tracks from others, but you gotta feel it! Here’s Karl on tha 1^st verse, too, comin’ through, spittin’ in a great, post-jail kinda way! Lots of “eat dat dick up” shit ‘round 1:19; gotta threaten ‘em wit your “dick.” LOL, I was playin’ beer pong yesterday, and if I didn’t get one in before my opponent got all tha balls in, I had to run naked outside. I would’ve done it, but I wound up gettin’ three in, lol. Then, my opponent wound up not gettin’ one in when versin’ someone else, and nearly went naked, lol! Got Blu on tha 2^nd verse, and he sounds real great, as always! Really diggin’ that he always still smokes, as well as feelin’ like tha coolest dude in dat Lane! My Rating: 4.4

14. B-Porter “My Side Of The City”

Don’t think I’ve eva heard of this dude, but am lookin’ forward! >>> A nice track to rap on, though a lil’ dry on tha voice/delivery, once again… Sounds more quieter than usual, wit tha voice, too… Not much of a transition from tha 1^st verse to tha hook… Weak transition, but a somewhat-catchy hook; so far, a good, decent joint, here. Tha 2^nd verse sounds a lil’ betta. Damn, this joint’s 4:52? I dunno why it has ta be so long; prolly could’ve subtracted a verse? Tha 3^rd verse’s start has a betta transition from tha hook ta start it off; not bad… “April 17, 1991,” I see? A lil’ younger than me… My Rating: 3.7

15. KarlWayne “Thuggin’”

And, here it iz, with tha now-shortened title as “Thuggin’”, lol. Here’s what I had to say when it appeared on my 15^th mixtape compilation:

Formerly known as K.O., and produced by Q-Red, here. Even got a lil’ music video online, too, so that’s what’s up! Nice lil’ comeback, here, strictly “thugging” in dat Gardere! I like that, “Man, I’m thugging,” random part ‘round 2:01. Go, K.O.—I mean, KarlWayne, lol! Strictly vibin’ off this Q-Red beat! I like how he ended it wit, “I’m thugging!” My Current Rating: 4.5

16. Needy Nee Feat. KarlWayne “Wrong Dude”

Let’s see, here… >>> Nice beat fa Needy ta rap on; sounds pretty intense, and one of tha best beats on here! LOL, nice hook; sounds like that old club shit from back in tha day! And now, I believe this month, Needy reaches 30; glad she still goin’ fa dat Lane! LOL, almost thought it was Blu on tha 2^nd verse, but it’s Karl, comin’ through wit some catchy rhymes, once again! Glad he all ova this; Street Certified Muzic-representin’ at its finest! My Rating: 4.4

17. Zipp Johnson Feat. KarlWayne & Obeeze “Friends/Enemies”

Y’all spelled “enemies” as “enimies,” lol… Looks like a nice collaboration; don’t think I’ve heard tha Zipp dude, yet! >>> Q-Red beat, once again; guess that’s how tha rest of this CD gon be? Catchy hook: “Friends become enemies;” I just titled it with a slash ‘cause it was a compound word in tha mp3 file… Either way, pretty nice; I feel tha energy in this voice, here! Good job from this Zipp (newbie) fa me! Kinda sounds a lil’ bit like Beezy Bird, too…; lots of “friends” collaborations, it seems like? LOL @ how KarlWayne starts tha 2^nd verse: “Ol’ faggot-ass, coward-ass, bitch-ass nigga;” dumb shit! And, it’s true ta anyone that ain’t thank me fa awards and deleted me, instead; how fucked up! Just happened a few dayz ago, too! Then again, sendin’ awards ta niggaz’ll really over; thank God I don’t have to waste my money, anymore! Let’s hear this Obeeze verse on tha 3^rd verse… Sounds great and consistent; can’t complain! Hard ta believe it’s been six years since G-Lane Vol. 1 and tha “Go Hard N Da Paint” dayz! My Rating: 4.5

18. Big Jun Feat. G-Lane Steve & KarlWayne “Wetup”

“Wet”? LOL; neva heard of tha Jun dude, too! >>> Okay, more on tha shoot-ya side, here; a pretty-good hook… Here’s tha 1^st verse, wit “glue on [their] hands;” nice… “I smoke too much weed;” already! When it’s my turn ta hit, I usually neva turn any of it down! Nothin’ betta than bein’ in tha zone! Tha 2^nd verse sounds pretty nice wit tha “put this metal to ya mouth, but I ain’t talkin’ braces” line, in tha beginning! Definitely feelin’ tha G-shit fa tha G-Lane, here! Hearin’ tha 3^rd verse and I can’t tell who’s where, except Karl on tha 2^nd verse; I think tha ID has to be flipped, a lil’? Or, does it? “Peel yo shit back: Mr. Potato Head!” Nice! My Rating: 4.1

19. Yola No Soda Feat. KarlWayne “Fuck A Nigga”

Looks like this gon be good…!! >>> Sounded a lil’ familiar wit tha beat, at first, but this iz pretty jammin’ wit tha start! Really diggin’ how Yola comin’ through on tha hook, straight puttin’ tha middle finga up, consistently! Nice shit on tha 1^st verse from Yola, too; can’t get in his way! Tha cool thing about work now iz that I’m five years older than most, there, feelin’ like Yola wit me. I say that ‘cause Yola five years older than me, so it’s a great 3-8-3 effect (our years born), lol; I’m in tha middle! Karl on tha 2^nd verse, here; pretty short verse, but it’s nice ta collab wit Yola, doin’ tha damn thang! My Rating: 4.7

20. KarlWayne Feat. Vic Boi & Needy Nee “So Dumb”

Y…U…P…! >>> An acapella start from Karl; nice wit all tha “dumb” parts! Tha beat start and intro sounds good! LOL, this mixtape lost its mixin’ outta nowhere; really glad fa that, but who knew, lol? Tha hook sounds good; I can feel tha energy, luckily, not thinkin’ that you’re just in a booth barely movin’ while recordin’ it! Here’s Karl on tha 1^st verse, sneakin’ tha “Nina” in; uh-oh! He feelin’ good/cool, here! Oh, and Karl, luckily, just a few weeks ago, I got my head outta tha DJ B-Real gutter, thanx ta hangin’ wit one of my friends from work! Who knew? Someone from where I live at, who’s one decade, one month & one day younger than B-Real would shift my attention fa tha betta? Anyway, hearin’ Vic on tha 2^nd verse, and it sounds pretty good; consistent “Lane” reppin’, here! Sounds jammin’ on this beat; gotta feel y’all! Got tha 3^rd verse from Needy, here, comin’ through wit consistent rhymes; feelin’ how she comin’ through! “Eat you up like an entrée;” nice! My Rating: 4.3

21. Lil’ Kev Feat. G-Lane Steve & Big Wayne “Eye Watching”

Endin’ wit an interestin’ collab; don’t think I heard of tha Kev dude, too! >>> LOL @ tha start; even got Big Wayne in tha background! Sounds like somethin’ from a long time ago? I just think of that ‘cause I know Big Wayne’s really in tha Boosie mode, now-a-dayz. Tha hook sounds pretty nice; serious shit, even though Big Wayne sounds off-beat, at times? I dunno, but he sounds on-beat on tha 1^st verse, here, comin’ through wit nice energy! He even repped you: “G-Lane Steve;” you know what it iz… Then again, he called himself “DJ Big Wayne;” lol, sounds like a teenage throwback? Tha ’07 dayz? One thing that would be missin’ if it was an ’07 throwback iz Big Wayne’s old, fast beat pattern… Tha 2^nd verse sounds pretty good, here; I’m diggin’ it… Though I don’t mind “eyes watching” me, when it comes ta what I do, I have ta admit, I don’t like if “eyes” are “watching,” ready ta confront me; that’s my autistic backlash? Then again, we can all be anti-social? Big Wayne on tha 3^rd verse, as well? Shouldn’t it be his song as tha main artist, if he on here tha most? “I’m Coogi-down wit Levi’s;” nice! It’ll neva be outdated fa me! I be wearin’ Levi shoes, at tha moment, and I still appreciate dat Coogi! My Rating: 4.4

Overall: Time fa tha label!! Oh, only four hours left to prepare! Real exciting! Anyway, a pretty nice, undaground mixtape, here! I definitely appreciate all tha unknown people, as well as it reppin’ tha whole G-Lane! Props fa KarlWayne and Street Certified Muzic fa puttin’ this together!

Review #549: FrankieThaLuckyDog Presents "Tha Louisiana Archives Vol. 1 (Hosted by FrankieThaLuckyDog)"

Reviewed on 6.20.2010 (Review #549)

Just approximately 15 more minutes ‘til I turn 22!! Pretty crazy… And to end tha day off, tha review I have on deck here iz for me, FrankieThaLuckyDog, lol! I gotta review and do commercials fa my CDs, ya feel me! This iz my review for my “Tha Louisiana Archives Vol. 1 (Hosted by FrankieThaLuckyDog)” mixtape! I mixed this thang too so you KNOW I’m comin’ through wit tha multi-taskin’!! Start Time: 11:55 PM | End Time: 1:12 AM

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.

© 2010 CD Review (Review #549) reviewed on 6.20.2010 by FrankieThaLuckyDog. Other than tha main artist or affiliated people with tha main artist, this review iz to not be used in anyone else’s words!

Source (Where I Got Tha CD From): http://www.datpiff.com/FrankieThaLuckyDog_FrankieThaLuckyDog_Presents_Th.m119191.html

01. FrankieThaLuckyDog “Intro”

I purposely downloaded it from DatPiff ta see what it would look like… Pretty pathetic wit all tha IDs… I already would know dat some of tha filenames would be cut off but all tha nice info’s missin’ (label, BPM, picture, etc.)! :( Tha artist names are either FrankieThaLuckyDog, BluBlack, or FrankieThaLuckyDog Presents. It’s two different ones ‘cause I tried to upload it a few different times. Plus, some of tha track numbers are fucked (a bunch say “25”). That’s ‘cause I tried uploadin’ every song at tha same time. I might try a .zip tha next time I upload my 2^nd mixtape OUT TOMORROW MORNING! Anyway, let’s hear how it sounds (haven’t heard it in a while)!! >>> Tha “dog” intro I used in tha beginning I didn’t think of usin’ in tha 2^nd mixtape for a start but it’s cool… LOL @ how I made my voice here; good shit as I’m introducin’ Tha Louisiana Archives! Got dat HOT BluBlack “Mastermind” beat in tha background! My Rating: N/A

02. BluBlack “Mastermind”

LOL, this iz a 1^st for reviewin’ dis joint (if “E-E-Exclusive!! *Ruff!!*” plays, then it NEVA was on a CD yet) so you know it gon get exposure! I speeded up each song by a lil’ bit on tha pitch (+1) ta give it a GR8 upliftin’ feelin’! Tha beat here iz catchy and tha hook’s tight; “mastermind” shit! Ooh, I like how I mixed it @ 1:02 and 1:07!! Good shit wit tha 1^st verse as my boy Blu spits a lotta shit ta determine his “mastermind” status! This became an anthem for Math class as I played it while studyin’ fa Math class wit my gurl Robin! Tha 2^nd verse sounds cool wit what he spittin’… Tha mixin’s cool here but I think it’s REAL GR8 when my next mixtape drops tomorrow!! My Current Rating: 4.5

03. ChaYsuh & Grind “Grind All Day”

This was tha 1^st song dat I took out tha last verse. Now, on tha next mixtape, a bunch of tha final verses are taken out, lol! Wit most of these songs I already reviewed, I gon post tha most recent review I did for it: Thanx for postin’ my college radio station’s link on your Facebook, ChaYsuh! That was watz up!! Tha beat iz for tha streetz and Grind soundin’ good wit his shit on tha 1^st verse. He looks like he knows his math! You know 51x49 = 2499, 301x299 = 89,999 and 1111x1111 = 1,234,321, lol!! I feel dat err-street dude gon luv dis one! Dat hook iz strictly street! When I hear tha beat, it reminds me of “Duffle Bag Boy.” ChaYsuh, you do tha damn thang here; I like you and Grind’s verses tha same. Y’all both have a REAL TIGHT part towards tha end: Grind had tha math and you have tha fish shit (e.g., “if you want beef, I gotta quarter pounder”)! DEFINITELY tight, ya dig!! To add: Speakin’ of ChaYsuh, no less, HAPPY BIRTHDAY ta him (since it’s now my birthday too), although he has ta wait anotha hour ‘cause he in Louisiana! My Current Rating: 4.5

04. Q-Red On The Track “To Particles”

SHIT, YEA!!!!! Gotta feel my lil’ “exclusive” rap for tha beginning!! This has ta be my #1 song of 2010; I KNOW IT!!! At first, it was a decent song dat I slowly began ta play. But, because it was so new, I decided ta play it more often. I like what I did fa tha hook here; gr8 lil’ mixin’ style!! REAL GR8 beginnin’ dat’s a REAL UPLIFTIN’ anthem fa y’all dat luv ta do shit ta make ya feel good!! Damn, I feel like dis CD just rolls REAL HARD ‘cause of how GR8 and fast I made it!! Tha 1^st verse sounds GR8 wit Q-Red just REALLY wildin’ out!! Ooh, a lil’ “E-E-Exclusive!!” part in tha 2^nd hook! Gotta luv tha 2^nd verse, ESPECIALLY tha lil’ “F-F-Fuck dat” part (I mixed it like dat)!! Str8 CRUNK shit, gutta shit, everythang-type shit!!! Tha outro from me talkin’ on tha mic’s cool. My boy Justin tol’ me “Thibodaux” iz pronounced “Tibodo” so I learned somethin’. My Current Rating: 5.0

05. Lil’ Ganggsta Feat. Lil’ Ruthless “Almost There”

DOUBLE CRAZY-ASS JOINTZ TOGETHER, lol!!! This iz a different producer fa me. Ganggsta’s on tha 1^st verse real quick and his flow DEFINITELY sounds good here! This iz catchy wit all his lyrics here! Tha verse was pretty quick and tha hook sounds good; he’s got a club vibe here and it sounds gr8! LOL @ me somewhat bein’ wrong about tha topic of tha song. Here comes Lil’ Ruthless on tha 2^nd verse and he DEFINITELY tha shit here; luvin’ tha flow!!! He got a REAL GR8 voice wit his gr8 smokin’/street lyrics here wit a club twist! :tu REAL GR8 newbie and hearin’ him fa tha 1^st time! And Ganggsta, you added anotha twist wit tha fade-out outro too! To add: This became my biggest song of tha year at first ‘til “To Particles” took ova! My Current Rating: 5.0

06. Kevin Gates “Dangerous”

Good lil’ switch up here. Gates does his thang wit tha rhymes on dis shit! Tha beat’s cool wit tha consistency and tha hook sounds good wit tha A-Tune even though it confused me a lil’. Gates and his “boxers,” lol. Tha 2^nd verse sounds nice and long and iz pretty consistent too… LOL @ my cold-ass ending! My Current Rating: 4.4

07. Wild Wigg & Lil’ Charlez Feat. Mod & Wodie “Aww Shit”

I originally ID’d this wrong tha whole time as Mod Feat. Wodie “Aww Shit” but it’s really Wild Wigg & Lil’ Charlez’s song… Anyway, my bad for cuttin’ tha 1^st verse out too; didn’t realize who it was. I liked this betta on a 1^st listen but it’s a lil’ ehh now…; still a pretty good song. Tha 1^st verse (here) which iz really tha 2^nd verse sounds not bad on tha 1^st ½ but it has a lil’ added flava wit Mod on tha 2^nd ½. I luv how Wodie comes through in tha beginning of tha final verse wit tha “it’s a bird, it’s a plane! Aww shit, it’s dat Wodie” part, lol! :rofl :tu My Current Rating: 4.4

08. Supa (Down Bad) Feat. King Arthur “Jiggin’ Out My Body”
ROFL @ MY INTRO!!! :rofl Good-ass pill shit!! “Aye” ta Supa!! Get dem mini DVs out soon!! I think I mixed dis one pretty good! GOOD-ASS Down Bad production here and tha hook’s just dat addictive feelin’! Gotta luv how my boy Supa comes through on tha 1^st verse, just keepin’ it BR-flava’d to tha fullest!! Ya neva really hear King Arthur rap but he’s good fa dis joint fa tha 2^nd verse; thumbs up ta “smokin’ dro!” I REALLY LIKE how I mixed tha “keep rollin’, rollin’, rollin’, rollin’” part in tha 3^rd verse here; I gave it dat “pill effect,” lol! A NICE (like) 15 seconds str8!!! My Current Rating: 4.7

09. Big Wayne Feat. Strokes “Nani Goat”

LOL, he just texted me earlier today (Big Wayne)! Got this from his YouTube and exclusively put it on here. Gotta feel tha K.T./Big Wayne connection on tha beat! I luv how Big Wayne’s extremely explicit wit tha words, lol!! It’s all good; it defines his toughness! Tha hook’s REAL CATCHY, especially when Big Wayne put all “goats” in tha mp3 video he made on YouTube, lol. Lots of “Nani Goat” shit for tha 1^st verse; good shit, Big Wayne! Tha 2^nd verse from Strokes sounds good; Bad Azz in tha buildin’! I like his, “I’m callin’ out ta all goats,” part; dat’s why I mixed it. Good collaboration… Oh yea, I threw his drop at tha end here. My Current Rating: 4.8

10. J Buc Feat. Quikkdraw & DJ B-Real “Extravagant”

LOL @ my unexpected intro; good shit! REAL HOT beat from J Buc; he reminds me of tha next BluBlack on tha beats!! Tha hook DEFINITELY tight!! Tha 1^st ½ of it sounds hella tight and you KNOW tha 2^nd ½ iz official wit tha title repeatin’!!! Even comin’ down ta tha rappin’: Tha 1^st verse iz Quikkdraw doin’ tha damn thang here!! It ain’t NOTHIN’ like Jigga City!!! Tha 2^nd verse DEFINITELY on its shit; REAL TIGHT wit tha “extravagant” parts, J Buc!! You know I don’t like hearin’ tha “Turn My Swag On” flow/lyrics at one point; that shit LIVES in ’09 ONLY!! LOL @ DJ B-Real teamin’ up on this; NICE combo!! A lil’ bit of Savage in tha voice almost on this track for tha 3^rd verse! Nice job wit tha verse here, ya dig!! Lookin’ like a HUGE song fa tha future!! To add: GR8 mixin’ for tha 2^nd hook I did for tha title!! Ooh @ tha “hop up out tha bed!!” part as I increased/decreased tha pitches!! Even tha “bangin’” part on B-Real’s verse! My Current Rating: 4.9

11. Yung Yola Feat. D.$.G. & Slymm On The Track “Doing My Thang”

LOL, I didn’t expect tha previous song ta end… I’m so used ta hearin’ tha full, original versions. My intro’s true here fa my boy Yung Yola!! I ripped dis from Slymm’s MySpace and it’s holdin’ down ’10 fa me since I’m always keepin’ Yola’s music around ‘til he gets outta jail! Tha hook’s cool/”bow” music! Tha beat’s cool too; those Yola/Slymm keys REALLY make you feel tha track!! D.$.G.’s on tha 1^st verse and he doin’ his thang fa tha G-Lane hood here!! Gotta show luv ta my big dawg Yola on tha 2^nd verse, “doing his thang” on tha verse! GR8 hood lyrics from him and lol @ his “Wipe Me Down”-type ending to tha verse. Slymm “doin’ his thang” too on tha 3^rd verse; I like all tha shit in tha 2^nd ½ of his verse. He keepin’ it consistent wit err-body else! My Current Rating: 4.7

13. Maxx Out Boyz “Out Da Gate”

Nice job from JokaBoi on dis beat right chea! Pretty cool song and did its thang ‘til I got anotha song from them (on tha next mixtape)! Tha hook’s cool and Lil’ Havic’s prolly tha most frequent person I talk to by phone so dat’s a plus! Speakin’ of Lil’ Havic, he’s on tha 1^st verse, spittin’ some good hood shit! Lil’ Gangsta (wit only one “g”) iz on tha hook and he sounds good; gutta shit!! Gotta luv it!! Gangsta’s on tha 2^nd verse and he keepin’ it good wit his voice; good-ass shit here!! One of tha otha Maxx Out Boyz (which I don’t think he’s wit them anymore? Not sure if it was him or Gangsta) iz on tha 3^rd verse and it sounds good once again too! I believe I’m on tha ending of this… Yup, I’m at tha end… LOL, tha “Super Mario” joint’s next! My Current Rating: 4.7

14. Zippa Castro “Super Mario”

I think this iz cool and on a different topic. This iz tha 1^st time I’m noticin’ there’s “Super Mario” bein’ repeated in tha background of tha hook; good shit… Tha hook sounds gr8 wit tha “Super Mario” lyrics and speakin’ of dat, I’m doin’ my thang wit mixin’ tha 1^st verse; tha “easy” and “power up” parts tight! I’m really likin’ tha “Super Mario” lyrics ‘cause it’s different and I’ve ALWAYS been a fan of video games! Tha 2^nd verse has pretty good rhymes fa dis shit too… LOL, I like tha slowed-down ending! My Current Rating: 4.6

15. K.O. Feat. Blizzac Man “Aware”

Anotha exclusive from me since I put dis on here! I did my thang wit holdin’ down tha intro fa my boy K.O. and Q-Red does a REAL GR8 job wit tha beat here; gutta-ass G-Lane shit!! Blizzac’s on tha hook and it’s good-ass street shit! Speakin’ of him, he’s on tha 1^st verse too wit his gangsta-ass shit!! Just like wit K.O., I’m keepin’ this alive on my playlist for a while ta keep his music out there since he’s locked up. Speakin’ of him, he’s on tha 2^nd verse now and he keepin’ it street here! He shows me buku luv wit mailin’ me letters back n forth! Tha 3^rd verse from tha both of them sound gr8 wit all tha alternatin’ lines! My Current Rating: 4.9

To add: I did a gr8 job wit tha “dumb shit” part in tha 1^st verse and tha “Young Ready laugh” before tha 2^nd verse, lol. Also, a lil’ secret: I added dat “PUSSY!” ad-lib a few times in this as extra parts and they sound good and make me lol (mainly in tha 3^rd hook)! Ooh, I’m makin’ a good appearance at tha end! Ooh, tha “City On Swang (Lock It Down)” iz up next! ROFL @ tha “FREE D.$.G.” part!! :rofl My Current Rating: 4.9

17. Trapp Da Rippa Feat. D.$.G. “City On Swang (Lock It Down)”

Good-ass shit here; GR8-ASS collaboration!!! Slymm On The Track did tha beat ta dis too! Sounds like a street sound in tha beginning… I feel dat this iz D.$.G. AT HIS BEST HERE!!! He startin’ tha 1^st verse off, introducin’ himself, as well as doin’ tha damn thang wit his gangsta-ass lyrics here!! REALLY doin’ tha damn thang, no less shoutin’ out “Mobb Life Ent., Sicktype Ent. and 99 Wayz 2 Grind Ent.” in his verse, so you KNOW he really doin’ tha damn thang wit socializin’ wit undaground BR peeps!! REAL NICE 1^st verse and that hook has such a NICE, Southern feel to it wit tha “swang” part in it; makes me feel like I’m in BR right now, ya dig!! And you KNOW tha song had ta have Trapp on it!! He “takin’ ova tha industry” wit D.$.G. on tha 2^nd verse here, doin’ a NICE job here, overcomin’ tha struggle!! Sounds like he’s more uplifted wit this song ‘cause it sounds like he came out tha negative shit and just enjoyin’ this Rap shit right here! :tu My Current Rating: 4.8

18. Quikkdraw “Hata Hurta”

ROFL, I feel like I have NO CLUE what’s next at times, lol!! O.B. on tha track and I just LUV this song!!!!! I LUV how it says, “you’se a hata hurta,” in tha hook!!!!! Iz dat his voice screwed? It’s REAL catchy when he brawlin’ wit it, sayin’, “you’se a hata hurta,” also wit it!! Cool beat here and when he says, “call me Quikkdraw,” that’s prolly how I say his name like “Quikkdraw” ‘cause of how he said it. I first played this on my radio show tha day before tha Superbowl and considered it as a part of tha “Superbowl theme!” REAL, REAL GR8 song; just luvin’ it!! He crushin’ all tha hataz in tha 1^st verse and DEFINITELY not “color struck” in tha 2^nd verse! To add: I like how I made tha “Dutch Master burnin’ slow” slowed-down part I did! LOL @ tha slowed-down 2^nd hook!! I so forgot about dat I did dat to tha hook!! I even chopped it up towards tha end of dat hook! LOL @ my outro; dat’s how I say, “Quikkdraw,” and I like how I slowed my “hata hurta” lil’ title part! My Current Rating: 4.9
