Review #1,796: King Sav "Mobb God"

Reviewed on 1.22.2019 (Review #1,796)

For this next review, I wanna give a special Happy Birthday shout out ta this good dude! Representin’ #80sBabiesInOur30s, here goes my review for King Sav Mobb God, released last year on Solo Mafia Enterprises! Happy Birthday, once again!! Had to show ya luv by buyin’ this off of iTunes so you get da bread…! Start Time: 8:11 PM | End Time: 9:03 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 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. A Mobb Prayer
>>> Sounds nice for an intro, with, like, a Sade-sampled background, as well as a laidback mobb vibe… Nice lil’ “prayer” ta introduce this CD off; leggo…! My Rating: N/A

02. “Vito”
>>> Sounds like a lil’ bit of a laidback lil’ hip-hop vibe, here… You sound a lil’ different on tha voice, but still have tha same flow, here on tha 1^st verse… Not too bad for a start; decent rhymes but tha life of a mobb… Oh, so no hook, straight rappin’? Not bad for a choice; almost like an intro track, afta da prayer… Saved a lil’ hook fa tha near-end, here… Kinda likin’ tha singin’ blend; keep representin’… My Rating: 3.5

03. “Say About Ya” feat. Q KIMBLE
>>> A female sample in tha beginning of this slow beat start…; not too bad wit tha beat, here… Hearin’ you on tha verse and it sounds good wit your rappin’. I’m still a lil’ surprised wit tha voice change, as you continue ta grow… Tha hook sounds good; key code: “muthafuck what they say about ya!” My Rating: 3.7

04. “Big Mobb”
>>> A lil’ mo interestin’ wit tha southern “tight” vibe, wit tha beat… Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse and it sounds like you got this “mobb” shit on lock; keep bein’ da bo$$! Tha hook sounds pretty good, too; just a regular hook fa anotha “mobb” like you… Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 2^nd verse, as you try and “get [‘em] canceled, like a plan B;” dumb shit! Got a lil’ minute-ending cool vibe, here, wit how you rap this verse; nice shit… “Out da swamp, I letchu gator me;” you know! My Rating: 3.9

05. “Get Ya Money”
>>> Despite tha title, I’m feelin’ tha really southern vibe in this organtastic beat… I usually don’t fuck wit these kindza “money” tracks but I thank you got this one, with a taste of tha hook… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it sounds good; “I cook beef like a Philly steak…!” Yeah, I give you props wit tha hook; you pass tha test! You nowhere-near fake; you got da trust on lock! Hearin’ da 2^nd verse and it’s pretty nice wit how you got this flow on lock; definitely catchy… Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 3^rd verse and you keepin’ it goin’; nice job, as always… Likin’ tha lil’ instrument at tha end, too, in its solo perspective, like Solo Mafia, lol… My Rating: 4.0

06. “Lay Low”
>>> Sounds like a good lil’ slow track… Anotha nice hook, too; sounds like a quality mission, in mp3 format… Yeah, with err-thang goin’ on wit me, right nah, I been layin’ “low,” a lot mo…; I feel like I know what’s right, now-a-dayz. Definitely a nice mantra on tha hook, right here! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and you rappin’ at a moderate speed, here, soundin’ pretty nice; good shit… Hearin’ da 2^nd verse and yeah, Sav, I almost thought I was gon hit, “100 grand;” I felt it, as I was at about 20! Then, tha snitchin’ came, smh!! Lots of rhymes; real-fast flowin’ but definitely good shit…! My Rating: 4.1

07. “You Need A Me”
>>> Sounds like you samplin’ Tyrese or somethin’ in tha beginning, here; sounds like a good slow track… Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse and it ain’t bad; nice, laidback shit ta have a nice shmoke to… Gotta luv that your lyrics can make tha underdogs look at you like you can achieve anythang; good/mobb shit! Tha hook pretty catchy; definitely feelin’ tha 2^nd ½ wit this “A Me” shit! Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 2^nd verse and yeah, mo shit fa tha underdog’s “future;” keep achievin’! Yup, “Been through tha fake to see da real…;” sucks enterin’ dat path of “fake!” Like how you had Tyrese’s sample echo at tha end, too, fa a nice, cold ending; cold, Sav! My Rating: 3.8

08. “All Me” feat. Calliope Var

>>> Sounds like some mo quality, slow music, but mo in a street way than fa da ladies… Hearin’ da hook and it’s pretty nice; let’s see how da verses do… Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse and it sounds like you rappin’ as fast as I’m typin’, here; good/yada-yada, ta “me…” Like how you deliver tha line, “I hold dis bitch down…,” on da hook; nice and laidback… Keepin’ it goin’ wit da 5-0-4 on tha 2^nd verse, here (Calliope) and he sound good ta make a lil’ collab wit… Not too bad wit his verse; good contribution… My Rating: 3.8

½time: Sounds like a quality-soundin’ CD fa da underdogs. I know I felt some of your previous music a lil’ betta but this still has those good vibes… A 3.8-rated CD, currently; how will da 2^nd ½ go…?

09. “Top Down”
>>> Sounds like you tryna break out dat feelin’ good-soundin’ singin’… I agree wit tha hook, even tho it’ll seem like a while before I feel da “Top Down” vibe, wit err-thang goin’ on… You know how these long winters go, up here in wack-ass PA… Hearin’ you on da 1^st verse and it sounds like a regular, smooth-sailin’ vibe… Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 2^nd verse, here, and I can’t wait ta have some new “jewelz blangin’!” I thought it woulda been this week, if everythang went over tha right way, smh… Not bad for a verse, overall; a feel-good Savage mind! My Rating: 3.9

10. “Like El Jefe”
>>> Sounds like a mix of your southern production & when Spanish music comes to strike; let’s see how dis go… Sounds like you tryna make a new-soundin’ anthem on tha hook, here; I dig it… Lol, did you blend your voice ta sound even deeper fa dis latin vibe, on da 1^st verse? Your rhymes are kinda yada-yada-soundin’ but that don’t stop it from still soundin’ good/with quality… Hearin’ what you got on da 2^nd verse and you sound nice and deep, still; good shit… Mucho caliente in Louisiana, Sav, or iz it more frio, now? I woulda came to Louisiana this week and it’s only in tha 50’s! Not tha caliente vibe I was expectin’, lol… My Rating: 4.2

11. “Private Soiree” feat. Tre Louis

>>> Overlappin’ voice, here, in tha intro; glad y’all bringin’ “da papers!” A laidback, R&B-type vibe but soundin’ good wit you on tha 1^st verse, here… Sounds good wit this hook and this “Soiree;” nice, Sav! Good fa mo laidback, relaxin’ vibes, with quality… Tre Louis on tha 2^nd verse, here, and I thought he was gon be a singer like tha other Tre (Virdure); good contribution, here… My Rating: 3.7

12. “The World Is Yours” feat. Tre Virdure

You got “world” spelled wrong on iTunes, here (“wolrd”)… >>> A lil’ intro, wit a soul-type sample in tha beat goin’ on, here… Yup, you said it on tha start to tha 1^st verse: “An ‘80s baby…” #80sBabiesInOur30s, Sav! Not too bad wit tha 1^st verse, here… I know I wasn’t tha biggest fan of Tre & I thank this continues that streak… I liked some of tha other singin’ vibes betta than his strong contribution, here… It’s not really fa me but good advice about tha “resume [havin’] real stripes…” Hearin’ you on tha 2^nd verse and it ain’t bad, here, continuin’ ta hold it down… Endin’ it wit a lil’ bit of a singin’ ending yourself, Sav; I don’t have anythang ta say, lol… My Rating: 3.2

13. “Swang Down” feat. Dee Day
>>> Anotha slow vibe; let’s see how this one go… Kickin’ it off wit tha 1^st verse: “Dick hang low,” and tha “nuts hit tha flo…,” and all dat; mobb shit fa a Sav… Just regular-soundin’ rhymes throughout tha 1^st verse, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it ain’t bad; prolly coulda sounded betta? Maybe, screw-and-chop da voice or somethin’? Don’t thank I heard this featured dude on tha 2^nd verse, before; almost thought he was a Latin artist, with how he came into tha verse… Overall, a decent track, pretty much… My Rating: 3.6

14. “Loyal”
>>> A slow vibe wit this one, right chea… Sounds like a good lil’ slow track fa da ladies; likin’ tha lil’ female voice bein’ sampled, quietly… Hearin’ what you got goin’ on wit tha 1^st verse, here, and lol @ “these other hoes leftovers…;” all about dem “leftovers!” Yeah, “roll dat gas,” when it come ta da clock bein’ “3 AM!” I feel dat! I luv wakin’ up and eatin’ edibles before breakfast, when it comes to an interestin’ day (e.g., 20 dayz ago, I woke up around 3:45 AM & I ate one at 4:20 AM; go figure)! Hearin’ what you got goin’ on wit tha 2^nd verse and it ain’t bad; keep it goin’… My Rating: 3.8

15. “Right There”
>>> Now, a male voice bein’ sampled in tha background of this; let’s see how this one go… Tha 1^st verse from you sounds good, as you’re supplyin’ tha vibe fa da ladies, once again. Tha hook sounds catchy; sounds like I can appreciate it more, in a way. I like how tha keys in tha beat sound on every 4^th bar; *dinn-dinn-dinn-dinn, dinn…* Hearin’ what you got goin’ on wit tha 2^nd verse and it sound good; not much ta say but props… Yeah, I’m diggin’ tha outro: “I ain’t miss a 1^st day of class…” It’s kinda like with work: Almost five years in and I neva called off, neva been late; you know how dat go! My Rating: 3.8

16. “Motivation” feat. Ms. Darla
>>> Mo laidback vibes, here; let’s see how this collab go… Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse and it’s regular-soundin’ rhymes, ta me; keep da hustle up… Singin’ on tha hook, here, as you’re absorbin’ tha “Motivation;” I feel dat! Same thang wit me; I feel tha “Motivation” fa a bigger Frankie, in tha future (I’m feelin’ it now)! Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 2^nd verse and it ain’t bad, once again; mo Sav rhymes for da Sav spines (I randomly came up wit dat: those “spines” that appreciate your music)… As far as tha featured chick, guess she’s just singin’ in tha background, quietly? Likin’ tha quiet feature, for a female… My Rating: 3.6

17. “Hard Times” feat. Keezy Off 38^th & G.L.O.
>>> Kinda sound like old music bein’ sampled, here… Not really my cup of tea wit this G.L.O. on tha hook; prolly coulda had it like tha last song, wit tha background secret… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse from Keezy and he sound good on this. Not tha kinda track I’d feel that much but Keezy gives it a motivatin’ boost, in a way… Here you come on tha 2^nd verse, here, “Tryna keep [your] record clean;” I feel dat! As soon as my shit happened, I remained calm and was like, “I have tha motivation, determination, perseverance & confidence!” Good lil’ verse; okay track, at times, but not my kinda hook. I know I’m dealin’ wit tha “Hard Times,” but best know that just ‘cause I’m dealin’ with it, don’t mean I like it! My Rating: 3.3

Overall: Most of tha tracks were a lil’ below tha loving 4.0 range, but for tha most part, you put out anotha quality-soundin’ CD. This tha more laidback, gotta-shmoke-everyday Sav, here. Thumbs up fa keepin’ it goin’ and don’t stop this music shit!

Review #1,311: DJ Hektik, Big Jay, DJ 5150, DJ Dow Jones & Dre "N.O. To The B.R. 10 (Hosted by Turk)"

Reviewed on 8.29.2013 (Review #1,311)

Got anotha review up next: DJ Hektik, Big Jay, DJ 5150, DJ Dow Jones & Dre - N.O. To The B.R. 10 (Hosted by Turk). Now, I thought I reviewed Vol. 10, which I thought was this: http://www.livemixtapes.com/mixtapes/19819/no-to-the-br-10.html But, that’s just a Bayou Classic Edition. Now, I got tha real Vol. 10. Another thing: Why this CD 1:24:10? Doesn’t it suck to sell zero copies in tha streetz? Start Time: 12:09 PM | End Time: 12:52 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.

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 an artist who claimed they “get money,” 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!!

Link To CD: http://www.datpiff.com/Dj5150br-NO-to-the-BR-10-Hosted-By-Turk-mixtape.432358.html

01. Turk “Intro”

>>> Good intro, but there are three other DJs on here, Turk! My Rating: N/A

02. Turk Feat. Lil’ Wayne “Zip It”

>>> Wasn’t sure what to expect, but it sounds good wit zippin’ their “mouth!” Not really into Wayne, as always; nothin’ horrible, but nothin’ to listen to. Let’s see what (would’ve been) Turk’s comeback verse sounds like… Sounds like it’s on some 2010s, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony-type shit… I’ll give it props; good job, Turk. My Rating: 3.9

03. Ceto “40 On Me”

>>> Kinda sounds boring fa me, here; sounds like regular mainstream music on all levels… My Rating: 2.3

04. Calliope Var Feat. Goonie Gang “Money-Making Nigga”

>>> Not likin’ tha vocals on tha hook; Drake ain’t tha end of tha world!! Sounds way too much like his music, almost like a new version of “Forever”; yuck! …YUCK! But, since it’s Calliope’s song, I’ll peep out more… Here he iz on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit some successful turnouts; I can feel tha rhymes, so there’s at least one plus. Tha 2^nd verse ain’t too bad, either. Other people can make this kinda music, and it’ll be boring. But, when it’s Calliope, I seem to be interested. My Rating: 2.9

05. Kevin Gates “Love Gates”

>>> Had no idea what this was ‘til I saw tha “Love” in tha title, again… “Love Gates” = “Love Sosa”. Well, not really into tha fast rappin’; startin’ ta not make sense, anymore. Not everyone’s Twista!! At least there’s a video fa this; makes things a lil’ betta, but still, a video for a jacked-beat song? Where’s tha original production when you need it! Gates need ta holla at me fa a video, but this music world’s so one-dimensional, aiming at what’s ‘cool,’ and there’s no room fa me! My Rating: 3.5

06. LG Feat. Curren$y “Battlefield”

>>> Good rhymes, here, but why so undefined wit this “battlefield”? Like, why can’t LG paint a complete picture, so I can learn about him? Either way, good job wit tha song, and Curren$y sounds good fa a collab. My Rating: 3.8

07. Clever Kev “King Tut”
>>> Gotta keep tha feedback real short ‘cause I still was neva called back fa dat interview I wanted, last year! Sounds like a freestyle, here; why does everyone have “niggaz,” homies, etc.? I’m 25, and I’ve neva had a friend I’ve known in person die, yet! Lucky? Good, here, but startin’ ta sound like braggin’ toward tha end… My Rating: 4.2

08. Juvenile Feat. Beat Docta “Blow My High”

>>> Sounds like randomness in tha hook, here… Okay, I can hear a clearer version of tha randomness at :27… Catchy hook; not bad… Feelin’ tha collaboration, here; agreessive, like when Magic was alive! My Rating: 4.0

09. 6 Ward Pook & Calliope Var “Downtown/Uptown Status”

>>> Sounds a lil’ like Mon Mack, here, in tha beginning (6 Ward Pook); catchy. Also, it almost sounds like a calmer version of tha “N.O. Anthem” Da U Boys came out wit, a few years back. Feelin’ how he comin’ through on tha beat, here; sounds consistent—dat 2010s N.O. shit I like. Calliope’s got a lotta freeing goin’ on, here. Ehh, I still don’t understand how dudes can like/support other dudes, since no one supports me, but it’s all good fa tha song, here. My Rating: 4.2

10. Ray Vicks Feat. Squirm G “Doin’ 2 Much”
>>> A good song; nothin’ really ta say, but y’all bling-blingin’ err-body out… My Rating: 3.8

11. Young D-Boy & Juvenile “On My Grind”
>>> Tha previous song was okay, and I had nothin’ ta really say. This iz on dat level, but a lil’ boring wit this ‘earnin’-money’ shit… Ehh, Juve, you sound like a ‘90s baby wit these ‘need-ta-get-money’ lyrics… My Rating: 2.6

12. Turk “Turk Speaks”

>>> Nice intermission! My Rating: N/A

13. Turk “Not Guilty”
>>> Short and sweet; sounds great wit tha aggression! My Rating: 4.1

14. Young Ready “Both Ways”

>>> Young Ready luvs his Q-Red! Sounds like some Badd Nooze-type delivery, here… This song sounds okay; nothin’ really special, here. Kinda sounds like ramblin’; I think that’s what y’all luv ta do now, right? My Rating: 3.7

½time: So far, it’s a decent CD; nothin’ I’m obsessed wit, yet, but it’s not wack. Matta fact, 3.6 iz tha CD rating, currently.

15. Sess 4-5 “So Much Money”

>>> VERY GAY HOOK/TOPIC!!! Was gonna try and tolerate it, but like Justine says, “Dump it!!” My Rating: 1.0

16. WeDatLoyalty “Knock It Off”
>>> Hmm, sounds fake ta me; sorry, I just can’t take tha “blood” shit serious, especially on a mainstream-soundin’, anthemic beat like this. Why does everyone “know some … niggaz”? I know no one!! My Rating: 1.0

17. Da U Boys “83”
>>> Not really into tha mainstream-soundin’ beat. Also, it’s boring fa a song/topic/delivery, overall. My Rating: 2.3

18. Ms. Tee “Wut’s Luv”

>>> Yes, a different vibe, finally!! Gotta feel tha bounce!! This CD needed an oasis in this desert of gettin’-money beats! Sometimes, tha bounce beats get boring afta a lil’ while, but this iz still nice ta hear. I like her singin’ throughout tha beat, sometimes, too… Oh, tha title took tha Tina Turner hook; kinda unoriginal fa me… My Rating: 3.8

19. Lil’ Razor Feat. Lil’ Dee “Fly Away”
>>> Okay, but iz that auto-tune, randomly? Skips! My Rating: 1.0

20. Big World Feat. Down Bad “Super Clean”
>>> Blast from tha past, here! Let’s see what 2012 sounds like… Piz Corleone on tha track; sounds good… Sounds good ta hear Big World, but why tha unenergetic flow? Where’s tha UGH, or tha UMMF, or tha AHHH?! Good parts from Terror & JR Dot, too. Too bad they’re quiet when gettin’ a hold of me when they have ta! Also, nice appearance from Cage! I wish Down Bad would quit bein’ quiet! Why iz quiet tha answer to bein’ cool? My Rating: 4.2

21. Tim Thugga Feat. K.Gates “That’s Fucked Up”

>>> Can’t give too much feedback ‘cause Tim Thugga wouldn’t dislike a video fa me that went against me when I asked him to, as well as no word on my awards, seven months later!! Well, this sounds good; betta than most on here. K.Gates sounds okay, but surprisingly, I have ta give it “up” ta Thugga, here; wow!! My Rating: 4.3

22. Turk Feat. Calico Jonez “I’m On”
>>> “Dump it!!” My Rating: 1.0

23. Fee Feat. Ray Vicks “Restless”

>>> A lil’ different wit dat background music bein’ sampled… Ehh, this iz okay; it’s tolerable… Tha sound iz what’s keepin’ my interest up. My Rating: 3.2

24. Dino Danja “Bitch-Ass Nigga”
>>> “This tha shit I don’t like;” didn’t that come from someone, like Drake? A lil’ typical wit tha flow, but tha rhymes sound good. Kinda random wit a freestyle, here. My Rating: 2.8

25. Spitta “All Around The Board”

Ewe, old! Why would you guys go back to that robbery, heroin-killing year of 2011 fa tha ‘12/‘13? My Current Rating: 4.4

26. Lil’ Mista “Bitch Bad”

>>> More randomness, which iz what I can expect from a lot of tha random artists on this mixtape… I guess, it’s a good song fa tha hoes, ‘90s baby style. My Rating: 3.8

28. Turk “Outro”
>>> Hope Turk’s upcomin’ music gon be good. I dunno if I’m anticipated fa anything new, though… My Rating: N/A

29. M-11 Spitta “M-11 Spitta”

>>> Anotha typical-soundin’, mainstream-like song, here… 2:30 went by, and I was lost in tha beat… My Rating: 2.0

Overall: Nothin’ really stood out fa me on this one. A lot of tha music sounded almost tha same. If not, there were trashy songs on here. I’m sure Vol. 11’s out by now (or soon). Guess I’ll have ta see if that has improvement. I also hate how everytime I review one of these N.O. To The B.R.s, there’s always someone on here that makes me feel uncomfortable. Like, they couldn’t do tha easiest favors for me, smh… That’s not how you gon get out tha south!!

Review #1,263: Calliope Var "Sample Bag"

Reviewed on 2.02.2013 (Review #1,263)

My 11^th review for today (just movin’ right along) iz Calliope Var Sample Bag… Start Time: 8:06 PM | End Time: 8:15 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 100,000x (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

01. “Ready Or Not”
>>> Damn, a jacked beat! Good rhymes, at least… My Rating: 3.4

02. “Fuck Love”

>>> Pretty X-rated for this old singer on tha feature… Sounds good for a rap song, but weird for a mix… My Rating: 3.0

03. “Prisoner”

What’s up wit these features??? >>> Really, they’re not featured; it’s just a sample of their music in tha background. So, I’m just gonna take them outta tha features! But, this iz good for tha rhymes. You even say, “terlit,” too, like my mom and her family? Random… My Rating: 3.2

04. “Tell Me”
>>> Why does every song have a female sample in it? Good rhymes, once again, ova an aight beat. My Rating: 3.5

½time: Sounds like an R&B street CD; a 3.3 for tha CD rating, here.

05. “My First Love”

Okay, now, I recognize this title; really jacked CD? Why? >>> SMH @ ruinin’ tha original wit this pitch shit! Bad move, BlaqNMild! Rhymes are okay, but this iz still too R&B for me… My Rating: 2.3

06. “Sosa”
>>> Sounds too much like mainstream rappers, this time; good thing it’s short! My Rating: 3.3

07. “Start It Up”
>>> This sounds too mainstream for me, too. Still, at least you have an attitude and shit. My Rating: 3.7

08. “The Realest”
>>> Good rhymes; not bad… My Rating: 3.8

Overall: Really? No 4.0-rated songs on this whole CD? Maybe, it’s time to quit thinkin’ ‘bout ruinin’ tha old R&B songs and switch to supportin’ tha streetz, full time!

Rankings:

08.       “My First Love” 2.3

07.       “Fuck Love” 3.0

Reviewed on 1.31.2013 (Review #1,250)

Keepin’ tha reviewz goin’ wit DJ 5150, DJ Hektik, Big Jay, DJ Dow Jones & Dre N.O. To The B.R. (Bayou Classic Edition). Looks like this anotha CD that sold 0 copies in tha streetz ‘cause tha length’s 1:40:35… Start Time: 2:13 PM | End Time: 3:00 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!

01. K. Gates “The Wave”

Lookin’ forward to this new Gates…, 504 style, of course! >>> Sounds like a Superbowl party finna happen… Didn’t think this would be an interlude/skit; good shit, Gates! My Rating: N/A

02. K. Gates “BodyBag”

FlightSchool on tha beat, here! >>> Beat sounds kinda Ross-y for an original production… Ehh, it sounds great wit you rappin’ on it! Ooh, likin’ tha hook; you got a nice voice ta deliver this shit! Tha streetz must luv you!! Got mad respect for you, Gates!! Good 2^nd verse, too; lots of energy goin’ on, here!! My Rating: 4.5

03. Lil’ Boosie Feat. Savage & Money Bagz “Play It How It Go”

Lookin’ forward wit this Savage production and feature, although I would be more anticipated if it wasn’t a mainstream artist… >>> Was like, “This doesn’t sound like a Boosie song, luckily,” fa tha start. LOL, that’s Savage on tha 1^st verse; real nice! Doesn’t sound like his production; a lil’ on tha mainstream. A lil’ catchy on tha hook fa him, but he takin’ chances wit that voice effect on tha hook! Savage…, be careful! Boosie’s on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit regular shit; same thing wit Money Bagz… My Rating: 4.0

04. Calliope Var Feat. Ceto & Magnolia Chop “Hold It Down”
! >>> Good beginning from Magnolia Chop. In tha file info, you have two spaces separating Magnolia Chop’s name. Well, Savage took a chance wit tha a-tune on tha previous song; why do I gotta hear it on Magnolia Chop’s voice? SMH! Good 1^st verse, though; feelin’ tha energy fa tha streetz! Wow, tha ending was so horrible!!! Lots of points bein’ taken off, here!! My Rating: 2.3

05. L.C. & Giga Feat. Kevin Gates “The Mad House”
>>> Beat ain’t too bad; it has a Louisiana/225 feel to it… Tha hook sounds like somethin’ catchy for 2013… Giga’s on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit good energy. It reminds me a lil’ of when L.C. teamed up wit T-Dub fa some tracks. Hearin’ Kevin Gates on tha 2^nd verse and there’s a lotta braggin’ goin’ on; nice and consistent! L.C.’s on tha 3^rd verse, and it sounds good. This iz good for a song; kinda comes close to tha older shit he put out… My Rating: 4.2

06. K. Gates “The Wave Speaks (Interlude)”
Ooh, an interlude from tha Gatester—okay, that sounded a lil’ corny. Take 2: Ooh, an interlude from Mr. 504 Gates! >>> Good shit, Gates. My Rating: N/A

07. K. Gates “Bigalow”

FlightSchool doin’ more production, here! >>> This iz more of a Louisiana sound than tha previous FlightSchool production… Very consistent wit these rhymes; now, this iz what I call lyrical! Tha hook sounds kinda cool; almost reminds me of a Baton Rouge vibe! Nice 504 vs. 225-type joint, here, courtesy of just you, Gates! Good shit all tha way through, Gates!! My Rating: 4.6

08. Lit Blueblack & Ray Vicks “Street Beat Cha”

Surprised you know of this Blueblack over BluBlack; kinda doesn’t make sense… >>> Okay, but a lil’ street for me for a random rapper. This also sounds a lil’ too much like a Bad Azz Ent.-type joint… I do think tha hook’s a lil’ catchy, though. My Rating: 3.2

09. Lil’ Mista “Pop It For Wne”
I dunno if I’m in tha mood for a tribute song, right now… >>> Lyrics didn’t really fit tha title/hook durin’ tha 1^st verse. Iz that Magnolia Chop on tha hook? Of course, a song like this has ta have “fuckin’” in it, smh! Beat sounds tight, though. My Rating: 3.6

10. Fiend Feat. Mouse On Tha Track “Slap That Bitch”

Interestin’ collaboration, here, wit Mouse on tha beat. >>> Almost doesn’t sound like Mouse’s production, at first, ‘til I hear him rap. This sounds like a decent joint, overall. Good 1^st verse from Fiend, comin’ through wit some trap shit, wit a “bitch” in tha title, lol? My Rating: 3.7

11. T-Bo “Boune Dat Azz 2.0”

I prolly reviewed this already; I can’t tell ‘cause I’m not home and I deleted tha review of his ‘cause I don’t like how he blocked me from both Facebook & Twitter, after I stated my own opinion on his wack CD he put out! >>> My Current Rating: 4.2

12. K. Gates Feat. Bobby V & B-Raw “I Do That”

What’s wit tha collab? Anybody remember that Bobby Valentino goes by “Bobby V” now? >>> Yea, a lil’ random wit tha hook and tha singin’ from Bobby V… This sounds a lil’ too mainstream for me… However, tha 2^nd verse has better lyrics. My Rating: 3.3

13. Dino Danja Feat. K. Gates “In Gunz We Trust”

He had a “We Trust” song wit Lil’ Scottie, recently; iz this tha same song redone? >>> Still sounds good fa Danja’s part… Interestin’ that Gates joined Dino Danja on this shit; I’ll rate it betta than tha other version! My Rating: 4.3

14. Turk “Get Naked”
??? >>> Sounds like some good, gangsta shit. Because he’s been gone for so long, he’s kinda a faceless, voiceless rapper for me. I can’t picture what he looks like, nor do I remember how he sounds, at times… But, glad he still reppin’ dat G-shit, regardless! My Rating: 4.3

15. Lil’ Trill & Shell Feat. DJ B-Real “Lights Off”

SMH @ NOT LISTIN’ MY BIG DAWG, DJ B-REAL ON THA FEATURE!!! But, thumbs up for pickin’ tha best song off that CD! My Current Rating: 4.6

16. The Rap Pack Feat. A Bay Bay “Floatin’”
>>> Why tha “MM” tag in tha beginning? Feel like just skippin’ this! Interestin’ turnout: The Show rappin’? Thought it would be wack, but it’s not ‘cause of Show’s consistent rhymes… Tha hook sounds good, too; fast-movin’ Show, lol… Tha 2^nd verse sounds pretty consistent, too; nice turnout! My Rating: 4.2

17. Down Bad “Everybody”

Let’s see how this compares to “Bunz”. Of course, I have a feelin’ that “Bunz” was way better… >>> Ehh, a lil’ similar to Benjamin Racks & YaBoiBeezy’s “Everybody” wit tha beginning, but it’s soundin’ betta tha more I hear about “everybody,” lol! Rhymes are consistent, too; how much “everybody” can you get, lol? Very creative by findin’ so many different subjects!!! My Rating: 4.5

½time: Sounds like a good mixtape compilation, once again; 4.0 for tha CD rating, currently!

18. Young Ready “Feelin’ Like Boosie”

What’s wit tha old music? Betta yet, not-so-good music? My Current Rating: 2.8

19. Webbie “Undisputed”

G-Motive beat; have I heard before? Can’t keep up wit all these random songs from mainstream rappers, anymore… >>> Sounds random; good, but I’m not interested in mainstream rappers, at tha moment. My Rating: 3.8

20. RichKidd Jr. Feat. Choppa “Like Dat”

I liked Lil’ Junior betta for his name, but I guess this iz tha evolution of “dat.” >>> Good bounce music; nice collaboration wit Choppa! Even kickin’ it off wit Choppa doin’ tha 1^st verse; good shit ta keep tha party up! Got Lil’ Junior on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit some party shit; same wit tha 3^rd verse, too! My Rating: 4.1

21. Keedey Black “Rock My World”

I remember this one from tha previous mixtape compilation. Though I don’t agree on havin’ tha same song on two different mixtapes, this chick did her thang wit this one! My Current Rating: 4.6

22. Tim Thugga “Blisted”

Why? >>> Decent/above average. However, looks like his dayz of gettin’ spins wit me and shit are effectively over. I haven’t heard from him about my 2012 awards in tha mail, either, so he might be completely over fa me! My Rating: 3.9

23. K. Gates “Bub Story”

Interestin’ title. >>> Nice rhymes; really likin’ all tha not “givin’ a fuck, fuck” shit on tha hook! Keep up tha rappin’; you fuckin’ rule!! Woo @ tha 2^nd verse; gonna increase my rating fa all this consistent, lyrical shit!!! My Rating: 4.5

24. Curren$y Feat. Young Roddy “Ex Girls”

I recognize tha feature, but I think this iz a new song… >>> Anotha nice, laidback joint from $pitta; nice rhymes and as always, great voice fa dis shit! Promising hook about, “I can still fuck all of my ex girls,” lol. Young Roddy doesn’t sound that bad on tha 2^nd verse, too; nothin’ disappointin’, here… My Rating: 4.1

25. A-One (Wissel) “F.U.C.K.”
How will this hold up against tha Curren$y joint, sayin’ he wanted to “fuck all his ex girls”? >>> Why a “MM” intro? Turn-off!!! Not feelin’ this beat, and tha rhymes are okay. However, I like tha title part in tha hook; more on tha “keep a choppa” tip than fuckin’, I guess? My Rating: 3.4

26. Jason Lyric “Might Not Make It”

Heard this one already from his CD. My Current Rating: 3.7

27. Sess 4-5 Feat. 6 Ward Pook & Sino “So Much Money”

Like tha artists, but I don’t like tha title… >>> Bullshitty hook… Ehh, not really for me, but it’s not terrible, since y’all keep it street. My Rating: 3.5

28. K. Gates “Splittin’ It (Spitarillo Anthem)”
!! >>> Really slow vibe; nice! Tha flow sounds nice and interestin’! However, tha flow on tha hook’s startin’ ta sound like a bullshit jacked song, smh! Despite tha flow, I’m feelin’ tha perspective you bringin’ to tha table, Gates! Gotta always light a spliff, right? Not feelin’ tha background vocals! Reminds me of Ca$h Out-type bullshit! Very mixed review, here; I think it was more negative than positive… My Rating: 3.2

29. Lee Banks “Fuck Wit Me”
>>> Started off tha bat. Not writin’ down lyrics “since 2010”? I think that’s a weakness for memorable songs, now. I could neva picture me rappin’ about tha houses in Hollywood, FL without writin’ it down… Either way, this iz only about lyrics; nothin’ special for a song, overall. My Rating: 3.5

30. Rudye Feat. Bengie Bee & J Fletcha “Hood Knocking”

Thumbs up fa some Rudye! >>> Nice start from Rudye! I feel anticipated and locked-in!! Yes, light tha “dutch,” Rudye! Light it!! Great 1^st verse, givin’ you a day in tha life in tha streetz wit Rudye! Feelin’ tha hook, too; glad you consistently reppin’ for tha “hood,” here, Rudye!! Keepin’ it goin’ wit Bengie Bee on tha 2^nd verse… Not really into tha Eazy-E jacked shit, as well as tha “money” shit. Ehh, could’ve gotten a better feature, but it iz what it iz, I guess? Cut scene in tha middle… Oh, J Fletcha on tha 3^rd verse? Not listed in tha feature…? Thought I might’ve heard this, since it’s on some The Hallows-type shit, but it’s still good to hear Fletch randomly appear… My Rating: 4.4

31. Puppy Feat. Nu$$ie “Going Nu$$ie”

Looks like somethin’ I would skip… >>> Not as bad as I thought, but let him R.I.P.! Not even really a feature; just a lil’ sample part in tha hook! What a rip-off for what I expected!! Also, how dickrided iz this: Tha intro and outro don’t have any blendin’, mixin’, or any cut-offs goin’ on; why wasn’t it mixed together? This izn’t somethin’ to have stand out! My Rating: 3.2

32. B.G. & Gar “Real Is Back”

Not really into this title, but I know they don’t disappoint. >>> Beat’s nice; good shit from both Gizzle & Gar! Gar’s real consistent on this beat; thumbs up!! My Rating: 4.2

33. 31^stDeedy Feat. K. Gates “Makin’ A Dollar”

LOL, what, did K. Gates find everyone from tha previous N.O. To The B.R.s and hook up wit them from Baton Rouge? >>> Beginning sounds okay, but I’m not into this kinda rap music about money! However, K. Gates has a verse that’s soundin’ pretty-good, here… My Rating: 3.0

34. 6^th Ward Pook Feat. Skipp Bullet “Fuck Somethin’”

Skip wit one “P” or Skipp wit two “P”s, tha way you have it? *Checks Google* Oh, it’s not “Skipp & Bullet”, it’s “Skipp Bullet”, without an “and!” >>> Not bad for tha beginning and hook; this iz okay, although I don’t usually expect this kinda shit fa a New Orleans artist… Oh wait, I hear Skip (one “P”) on tha 2^nd verse; I’m confused… Maybe, I’ll keep it tha way you have it, 5150, except take tha extra “P” outta Skip’s name… My Rating: 3.6

Overall: Turned out to be more decent than usual, although there were still tha hot jointz on here…
