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 already love it. 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. “Hey Feds”
>>> Good intro… Barely gon comment tha song, so I’ll just say that it’s a good combo, between Ray Vicks & Boosie. Could’ve sworn I heard this from somewhere… My Current Rating: 4.4
EDIT: Reviewed 363 dayz ago on 12.24.2010.


02. “Go Hard”
Even older… My Current Rating: 4.4


03. “Dat Fire”
LOL, again! My Current Rating: 3.8


04. “Money Got Me Fucked Up”
Finally, a not-heard song? >>> I can picture a novelty feelin’ goin’ on, here, fa me… Too bad this title did get someone “fucked up;” kinda ironic for a title, lol? Good, ‘cause it now gives me an ironic smile! Decent song, overall, but screw all this damn “money” shit! My Rating: 3.6


05. “Niggaz In Trouble”
My Current Rating: 4.2


06. “I’m Ballin’” Feat. Block 125 & Bambino Gold
My Current Rating: 4.1


07. “Fade Away” Feat. Rambo
>>> Sounds like typical, Boosie shit that’s acceptable. My Rating: 4.0


½time: A 4.1-rated CD, which I know a bunch of tha jointz, so far!


08. “Lethal Injection”
Good title; familiar? I don’t see it in my iTunes… >>> Cool title part in tha hook; sounds like an okay joint, but gets betta wit Ray Vick’s “K” shit! “Bah-da-da-rrrrrrrrrr,” lol! My Rating: 4.2


09. “Ur Name” Feat. Tawain
>>> Beat sounds like baby sounds? Oh no, tha gurl said, “swag;” not really lookin’ forward ta dis… Really not for me; I thought mixtapes were ‘pose ta go hard, not soft? My Rating: 2.7


10. “Refuse To Let U Go”
>>> Really slow, but acceptable; tha better ‘slow’ music than tha previous song! Good shit from Boosie, here; likin’ this a lot, lol! Whether tha content ain’t my type, I know I’m really likin’ this vibe. Also, thumbs up ta Ray Vicks, here. My Rating: 4.3


11. “I Pledge Allegiance” Feat. 38 Slimm
38 Slimm or 38 $lim? I bet you guys have tha correct spelling ‘cause there were some errors when I first saw him on Pyrex Radio Vol. 3 & 4… >>> Another really-hot-soundin’ song; hope tha producer ain’t a dick, but I won’t say anything else ‘til I find out! Nice job wit tha hook, here; feelin’ tha 1^st verse, too, when it comes ta this “pledge allegiance to” tha hood-type shit! Also, I’m likin’ how tha 2^nd verse sounds; definitely a nice collaboration! Boosie’s last, spittin’ some good, next-level hood-type shit! My Rating: 4.5


12. “Xstacy” Feat. Tawain
>>> Again, not gonna say much about tha beat ‘til I know who’s producin’ it, but I like that start! A lil’ on tha slow tip, but this Tawain gurl’s soundin’ much betta here than on #9! Good shit from Ray, here; likin’ your sex shit, this time. Tha 2^nd verse from Boosie’s good, too; nice vibe! My Rating: 4.2


13. “Top Ten” Feat. Youngsta
Hope I’m in people’s “top ten”s! Speakin’ of which, I’ve been doin’ my “Top 10” countdown since July 5, 2000, age 12, and I still continue, day by day!! >>> Anotha good-soundin’ anthem, here; good shit fa tha traps! Tha hook’s definitely on-point and it goes wit my countdown: “ain’t stoppin’!” Err-body comes through hard on this joint; thumbs up! My Rating: 4.3


14. “My Community”
>>> This iz anotha hot-soundin’ joint; really likin’ tha consistency of new jointz, all of a sudden! Really likin’ that y’all addressin’ tha “fakes” that are in y’all’s “community!” Good shit from Vicks, reppin’ tha whole way through, as well as Boosie comin’ through wit his toughness, lol! My Rating: 4.1


15. “Under Investigation”
Title track, which I already heard, lol! My Current Rating: 4.4


Overall: Nice job, especially tha new jointz!

Review #1,080: DJ 5150 "Street Connected"

Reviewed on 10.30.2011 (Review #1,080)




Anotha 5150 review comin’ up right now: DJ 5150 Street Connected. I wonder what’s tha difference between N.O. To The B.R. and this? I know tha Dre dude ain’t a part of it, but I wonder what could be a difference; are you rappin’ on this? Start Time: 2:09 PM | End Time: 2:52 PM

01. Calliope Var Feat. Ray Vicks, Bambino Gold & Cutta “Street Connected”
Anotha compilation, lol? Yea, what’s tha difference between this CD and tha N.O. To The B.R.s? >>> Sounds good, although that previous Calliope song was better for me, on tha N.O. To The B.R. 7 CD. Likin’ tha content and tha quadruple connection, though! My Rating: 4.2


02. Ray Vicks Feat. Calliope Var, Bambino Gold & Owey “Ballin’ In The Trap”
Looks like tha same lineup? >>> No, not a “money” song; betta not piss me off… Sounds like a good song but I can’t deal wit these lyrics. Matta fact, someone just inboxed me, sayin’ I charge too much for a documentary. I charge $250 for every five minutes of video; that ain’t a lot, WTF? Sick of cheap-ass people!! Why does “tha hoes all on a nigga” have to mix wit a song wit “money”? Doesn’t make sense. My Rating: 3.5


03. Ray Vicks Feat. Lil’ Boosie, Block 125 & Bambino Gold “Ballin’”
BW beat? What’s up wit tha same lineups, once again? >>> Complete novelty feelin’, here; can’t wait ‘til I start seein’ dollaz fa some of this shit! Anyway, good song but it’s not like I’d come close to listenin’ to it…; tha novelty feelin’ would make me feel embarrassed in public. My Rating: 3.7


04. Bambino Gold Feat. Ray Vicks & Block 125 “Class Room”
Mike Will beat. >>> Sounds decent; I like tha content betta than tha beat, surprisingly. Really catchy wit tha content; it could go on and on and on… My Rating: 4.2


05. Maceo Feat. Ray Vicks & Calliope Var “Front Door Swangin’”
Non-Louisiana music? >>> Sounds good, but expect betta from tha production… Nothin’s like tha “Hoe Sit Down”/”Nextel Chirp”/Maceo’s 2005 dayz… Feelin’ tha 2^nd verse; a betta voice ta hold this down… Tha 3^rd verse fits wit Maceo, here; gotta give it up to tha 2^nd verse, though. My Rating: 3.6


06. Maceo Feat. Ray Vicks “Make It Back”
Again wit tha non-Louisiananess? >>> Sounds a lil’ betta wit tha production… An okay song, overall; not really much ta say… My Rating: 3.7


07. Bambino Gold Feat. Calliope Var “Made Nigga Shit”
>>> Anotha decent/good song that I don’t have much to say about; most of these jointz go together wit each other… My Rating: 3.6


08. Calliope Var Feat. Eldorado Red “I’ma Gangsta”
I guess this iz a Calliope Var/Ray Vicks/Bambino Gold-type CD? Should’ve been labeled like that? >>> I knew this sounded familiar; now labeled as a “Gangsta” in tha title, lol. My Current Rating: 4.2


09. Block 125 Feat. Ray Vicks “Certified”
Mike Will & Ear Drummers beat. >>> Again, sounds pretty good and fits wit what’s goin’ on wit this CD… My Rating: 3.8


10. Ray Vicks Feat. Sean Teezy & Block 125 “Flexin’”
Shawty Boy beat; what iz this? >>> “Baton Rouge” feel? No matter tha artist, I feel like I’ve been in a constant zone of 504, all along, lol. But, even though I thought I wasn’t gonna like this (‘cause of tha title), but it’s, once again, just as good as some of tha other shit on here. I think I’m lackin’ feedback ‘cause tha artists aren’t changin’; think they should start switchin’ up? My Rating: 3.5


½time: So far, decent; nothin’ bad, but nothin’ too exciting… Currently, tha CD rating’s at a 3.8.


11. Ville Boyz “What Yo Block Like”
Wit their first CD, they didn’t have tha “Da” in their name; that’s why I usually don’t put it. Anyway, no DJ 5150 on tha main artist, this time, lol? Just heard this, courtesy of you; thanx to you and J Buc! My Current Rating: 4.4


12. Ray Vicks Feat. Calliope Var & Cutta “Presidents”
Back to tha same artists… >>> Kinda a boring song; don’t really have interest in this money shit, as you know… Really, I don’t need ta say anymore about this. My Rating: 3.1


13. Cutta Feat. Ray Vicks “Hustle Game”
>>> Still on tha same tip without change; this iz a lil’ betta, though… “Allergic to that fake shit;” I agree! My Rating: 3.7


15. Maceo Feat. Ray Vicks “Ball”
D.Boy beat. >>> These subjects are still tha same, too. This ain’t tha typical shit I don’t like, but I feel like this CD’s fulla it, wit less-power beats. My Rating: 3.5


16. Darryl J Feat. Big Six, Big Stackssss & P. Money Bags “Grams Over”
What a lineup, includin’ this Big Lew dude on tha beat! >>> Ooh, nice beat start; I think I’m anticipatin’ this! LOL, finally, 16 songs in, somethin’s really catchin’ my attention, wit a new-lookin’ ID! LOL, tha length’s exactly six minutes long; don’t think I mind, either! Name “Big Stackssss”, wit four “S”s at tha end? Wonder how much he has, that makes his name “big”? Nice job, err-body, strictly holdin’ this down! My Rating: 4.3


17. Lil’ One The Champ “The Mexicans”
Why iz this here again? My Current Rating: 3.7


18. Chick Da Flyest Feat. Travis Porter “Marvelous”
Why am I reviewin’ a song wit Travis Porter in it?!? Thought I was just on Louisiana?! >>> Sorry, wrong decade for me; not into tha 2010s mainstream shit! My Rating: 2.1


19. Yung Teddy Feat. Yung V.A. “Facebook”
YP Auto beat; wtf’s this? >>> Wow, instantly skippin’ this! See my comment on tha previous song! My Rating: 1.0


20. Psyke Sconi “5150 That’s My DJ”
LOL? Forgot tha apostrophe in “that’s,” lol. >>> Sounds funny for tha title; decent song, overall. I don’t really know what ta say about this, but yea, “stay underground.” Lots of luv shown here; wonder when someone’ll make a song about me? By tha way, how can you include “Facebook” and “on tha block” in tha same song, betta yet, hook? Ugh, not a good mix! My Rating: 3.8


Overall: Nothin’ that special; just decent, although it got a lil’ wack toward tha near-end. For a CD about you, I think it should’ve changed up, a lil’, or had you featuring many artists; this was like a watered-down compilation, instead.
