Review #458: Mookie Blakk "Since Nobody Else Will"
Reviewed on 5.20.2010 (Review #458)
Back at this… Had ta take a lil’ break ‘cause I had ta just organize all tha videos and older files I had on my desktop computer but I’m a lil’ revived ta go into review mode! So now, here I finally go and review this shit right chea! This review iz Mookie Blakk “Since Nobody Else Will”!! Start Time: 12:50 PM | End Time: 1:55 PM
Quick Note: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself wit my ratings!! I don’t care how lyrical you are! As long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals and then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings (if a song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6 rating, I pretty much REALLY LOVE it as it’s considered “mindblowin’” when I hear it) so any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> ” iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song. Anything after I type “ >>> ” iz what I think of tha song while I’m listening to it.

01. “Feel Me”
Only two flat minutes on tha length? Iz this gon be an intro or just a track? >>> Sounds like it’ll be a cool intro track here wit tha “Gotta Get It” beat; will this be a jacked beat CD? LOL @ tha “Mickey D’s” (or whateva it iz) part; sounds good on tha hook! You got shit on lock here fa tha 1st verse; DEFINITELY feel your catchy voice and flow at all times when it comes ta this Rap shit!
“Colder than a glass of lemonade in tha shade;” fuckin’ right! My Rating: 4.4
02. “Kickin’ In 2”
A Part 2? I thought this was tha original version? >>> Okay, it makes sense wit tha length not even two minutes… It’s tha “Loose As A Goose” beat and tha hook sounds REAL HOT on this although it was much betta wit tha otha original beat! DEFINITELY feelin’ this though; you DEFINITELY choose HOT beats fa your songs, no matter if they’re jacked or original!! I always play tha 1st version on my radio show; you KNOW I show luv! My Rating: 4.5
03. “Come Up”
Anotha song only two minutes long? >>> Whateva this beat iz, it sounds pretty good. Sounds like a Young Jeezy-type beat. You’re makin’ this shit catchy on tha hook; thumbs up, my boy! Keep your character comin’ through on this CD, ya dig!! Tha 1st verse sounds yummy, lol, wit tha “shrimp and lobsters” part. Too bad these songs are kinda short… My Rating: 4.2
04. “Throwed In The Party”
I have anticipation fa this…!! >>> LOL, now, we’re back at unda two minutes wit an “Ice Cream Paint Job” beat here, lol. You DEFINITELY holdin’ these beats down; feelin’ tha intro! You turned “ICPJ” inta somethin’ cool right here; I like how you handle tha hook! Tha start to tha 1st verse sounds good wit how you come “throwed in tha party,” lol. Nice job handlin’ tha verse too wit your “partyful” rhymes, lol! My Rating: 4.3
05. “In The Meantime”
Let’s see how quick you can do ya thang on this short song again… >>> LOL @ tha “Break Up” beat… You have a NICE, dark voice fa this in an R&B vs. Hip-Hop flava! My Rating: 3.9
06. “Rockie Balboa”
This made it again, only 34 seconds shorter (around)? Let’s see what’s good here since tha original songs are back… >>> Ooh, MUCH MORE REFRESHIN’ START, even though tha otha version of this song (originally labeled “Rocky Balboa”) had a NICE X-Fyle beat. Now, it’s Shonta and it sounds REAL HOT!! Nice job on tha updated hook and updated 1st verse right here!! Tha part from 2:30 – 2:32 sounded REAL, REAL HOT!!! Gotta luv tha consistent rhymes right here in tha 2nd verse!!! Ooh, a bridge fit inta this version and sounds gr8! Shit yea, you DEFINITELY a “real jiggalater,” ya dig!! DEFINITELY feelin’ tha cold ending!! My Rating: 4.7
07. “Same Thangs”
Will this be a new, original song? >>> Sounded like a really odd start compared to tha last song… Not too bad once tha beat “kicks in” (as you would say, lol) and you start rappin’. It almost sounds like DJ B-Real on tha hook tha way you sound. There’s not much ta say about tha hook so I’ll just hop onto tha 2nd verse here… Good rhymes… This passes tha test fa me ta listen to. My Rating: 3.5
08. “B-Girls” Feat. Too Short & X-Fyle
Looks like this’ll be a jacked beat song… What’ll we have here? >>> Oh, it’s original (thought it would be jacked wit tha feature) as X-Fyle’s on tha track! Ooh, tha hook sounds gr8; almost soundin’ like 90’s vs. Early 2000’s Louisiana-type shit! I like tha hook right here and this beat sounds dry but has a lotta catchiness in it wit you on it! REALLY feelin’ your flow right chea; DEFINITELY HOT shit!! I like tha “bird don’t chirp” shit towards tha end of tha 1st verse! Talk about Too Short on tha 2nd verse… Afta tha 1st few words, I identified it as a “jacked verse” (“Blow The Whistle” from 2006). I was goin’ through all my files ta put onto DVDs and I came across dat song so you KNOW I don’t forget anything! Anyway, I thought it was gonna be a real verse… LOL, what’s up wit tha 3rd verse? Different person? He said, “X-Fyle,” at tha end of tha verse so I’m assumin’ it was him rappin’; interestin’ shit. It emerged outta nowhere! My Rating: 4.4
½time: You doin’ ya thang right chea!! I’m still feelin’ your character wit tha way you rap, your voice and your flow; it’s DEFINITELY a GR8 combination of GR8 rappin’ elements, ya dig!! Keep this shit goin’ ova ANY beat, ya dig!! Average CD rating currently iz 4.2!
09. “Nama Numa”
Not tha “Life My Life” beat…; I hope not. >>> Okay, I guess this iz stayin’ original. Oh, this iz a familiar song; this was tha intro to my commercial I made you back on 2.25.2008. My bad I didn’t recognize tha title (‘cause it was originally “What Is U Sayin’”). Hearin’ tha X-Fyle beat intro again and seems like I’m LOVIN’ tha beat start!!! Wow, startin’ off REAL, REAL GOOD!!! I love tha “smoke too much/drink too much” part. What’s all tha “nama/llama nama/llama numa” shit? Feelin’ that. Your voice sounds cool on this one and now, I’m hearin’ tha 1st verse… I’m guessin’ it’s you (since there’s no featured artists on tha ID). Tha shit sounds like Shawty Lo now (lol) and it sounds good. Oh, and those random ad-libs throughout tha verse sound like Auto-Tune and it’s VERY rare that tha Auto-Tune iz used correctly ‘cause it always annoys tha shit outta me. However, I LIKED tha way tha Auto-Tune ad-libs (that’s what they sounded like to me) came out; GREAT job!! Let’s hear this 2nd verse… Less catchy from tha A-Tune shit but got better at 2:40 wit tha “I’m out my body” part; gotta feel that hook! Heard tha Auto-Tuneish part at 3:15 and 3:22 again. BTW, wit me likin’ those Auto-Tune parts, DON’T make a whole entire track wit Auto-Tune (or eva think of it); those lil’ parts that sounded like it blended good. My Current Rating: 4.5
10. “Put Your Legs”
Now THIS I recognize… I rememba tha line (also used in my commercial) and tha title bein’ “Like A Pro;” I guess this iz acceptable ta have a double title and DEFINITELY iz appreciated on here too! Now, this iz slightly longer and this one’s a lil’ slower… Now, you sound like Pimp C. Nice hook and hearin’ tha 1st verse… Ol’skool Twistaish flow here. Very Texas-type here… I’m feelin’ this even though Louisiana really overshadowed Texas for me by a mile. I liked tha 1st verse on this shit and now, it’s tha 2nd verse… Feelin’ that 2nd verse. This would be a nice, relaxin’ joint to listenin’ to while on my iPod. Fa’sho, this CD’ll be on my iPod also, ya dig! You even gave Pimp C a shout-out on this (cool) as well as X-Fyle (guessin’ he produced it, again). My Current Rating: 4.3
11. “My Dawg”
Maybe this won’t be a trick, lol? >>> I like this title and it DEFINITELY iz original wit tha X-Fyle beat; too bad it’s not even 2.5 minutes long… Interestin’ hook wit tha “don’t touch my dawg” shit; you’re DEFINITELY appreciated by your homies!! And yea, NOBODY’LL “touch me,” ya dig! You sound good wit tha shit you spit on tha 1st verse and on tha hook, it reminds me of if a certain rapper would’ve jacked your style or some shit; glad you tha REAL THING!!! My Rating: 4.3
12. “U Don’t Know Me”
This looks like it’s for tha peeps dat “don’t know you;” I have a feelin’ I’ll DEFINITELY like it, of course! You KNOW I “know you,” ya dig! >>> I had a 99% thought it was gonna be X-Fyle on tha track and I was right! Sounds like good, catchy Rap music for tha hook right here wit this hot beat! Tha rhymes are catchy in multiple ways on tha 1st verse, from tha ladies to tha grindin’ to tha hard workers! LOL @ tha start to tha 2nd verse: “Muthalucka;” did I hear dat correctly? Either way, it sounds catchy when you come through wit deliverin’ tha rhymes! Sounds like “too bad” at tha end wit tha sample? Hot shit! My Rating: 4.4
13. “Bow”
“BOW!!,” lol! >>> Likin’ tha start here a LOT! You DEFINITELY “feelin’ good” when it comes ta deliverin’ dis Rap shit right chea!! You got good shit fa err-body right here on tha 1st verse; I always luv how you come through on all tha tracks!! Tha shit before tha hook DEFINITELY sounds HOT, ya dig!! I’m hearin’ tha hook now and it’s DEFINITELY real tight, ya dig!! You DEFINITELY comin’ through wit dat HOT shit once again!! You doin’ tha damn thang shoutin’ out all tha hoods on tha 2nd verse, ya dig! DEFINITELY gotta “respect your mind” to tha fullest! I thought a 3rd verse would fit but it sounds like tha hook’s repeatin’… My Rating: 4.5
14. “La La” Feat. Dyl & Cas
You puffin’ on dat “la la la la la la,” lol? Let’s see what’s really good wit dis shit ! >>> All tha songs have been original recently but this doesn’t sound original… Then again, I hear Dyl on tha intro so this iz DEFINITELY original! Why no source on tha feature? I know this song ‘cause I heard tha “slap ‘em in tha face” part (which “Slap ‘Em In Da Face” was tha original title I found on A-Mar & Dyl’s “Hard Times & Raw Rhymes” CD). Tha beat sounds more on a quiet club style (since there izn’t much goin’ on in it). Catchy hook and you doin’ a nice job on tha 1st verse. When I hear you rap, I feel like tha raps are UNSTOPPABLE!! You rap about everything and gets NO disrespect ANYWHERE!! LOL @ tha “put tha puzzle together like lego” part; that was nice! Tha unstoppable Mookie Blakk did a NICE job on tha 1st verse!! *Gasps* Dyl on tha NON-last verse (2nd verse), lol! I like how he included tha word “buku” in dis ‘cause you KNOW you gotta have tha BR slang in here! More gr8 rappin’ here that DOESN’T need a minus at all!! Great job on his verse and now, tha remainin’ verse from Cas! He nearly sounds like Dyl so I’m assumin’ he white too. Comin’ back on this CD wit tha “rollin’, rollin’, rollin’” shit! Hearin’ tha hook for tha last time and your “must have a boomerang…ass comes back” part in tha hook iz DEFINITELY REAL NICE!!! Sounded like this shit turned out pretty good! My Current Rating: 4.3
15. “Letter To The President”
I guess you’re Mookie-Political-Blakk now, lol! Let’s see your story and perspective here… >>> A slowed down “X-Fyle on tha track” tag in tha beginning; sounds pretty anticipatin’ wit this beat! I hope it continues ta sound good! As tha beat gets betta, I like tha “I pledge…” part! You sound like someone else on tha beginning of tha 1st verse wit tha letter-spellin’. However, tha rhymes sound good here, ya dig! Too bad “racism still alive in tha state you’re in.”
I’m glad y’all DEFINITELY accept me fa who I am and not what color I am ‘cause I do BUKU SHIT fa y’all and y’all luv it!! It’s like you’re seein’ somethin’ you’ve neva seen before in your lives: reviewz, commercials and continuous shit!! I like tha 2nd verse wit your name repeatin’, as if they were addressin’ you in tha 3rd person! I luv how people LUV tha president and political situations in life, lol. I feel like wit my Autism, I can’t even register history or any kinda real-life political shit in my head ‘cause it’s not dat big of a strength to me… My Rating: 4.4
16. “Presidential Life”
Shit, you’re missin’ an “i” before tha “al” in tha title… Anyway, it was a simple error and not somethin’ gay like a “than” instead of “then” or vice-versa. Anyway, anotha “presidential”-type theme here? How ‘bout dat “presidential shit” you smoke? I have a feelin’ dat’s what this’ll sound like! >>> A faster “X-Fyle on tha track” tag this time, lol. Almost sounds like New York-type Rap music in tha beat here but I’m sure it’ll sound gr8 wit you on it! Also, this sounds like older New Orleans-type Louisiana Rap music dat would be on dat gangsta shit! Tha song itself iz aight for a start… Tha rhymes were cool in tha 1st verse and tha hook sounds good although there’s not much in it… I like tha Reggae style although sometimes, I feel like when people put tha Reggae shit in their songs, it reminds me of Kevin Gates all tha time. LOL, two minutes in already? Where’s tha next verse? Only one verse? Damn… Sounds like a good, short song for my radio show wit this nice, long beat outro though. My Rating: 4.0
17. “Walk Through The Valley”
Hope we don’t end it sad… >>> Almost 5.5 minutes on tha length too? I dunno… Concept did tha beat here (I think he did on tha previous ones on here too). I’m not too into this singin’ on tha hook here… I hope you revive it wit your character! Tha singer (feature) iz not listed again… Not really catchin’ onto this… It sounded too much wit tha singer mixed in wit like additional parts. LOL, don’t tell me tha beat outro iz like 3:20… Okay, tha hook came back a lil’ bit; a lil’ too long of an interlude though. There iz a 2nd verse here and it’s you, spittin’ some good hood shit at least. LOL, who would’ve guessed a 3rd verse would be here afta tha interlude? It’s an aight verse… Good rhymes though and tha production’s pretty good. My Rating: 3.1
Overall: You did tha damn thang on this CD; good shit, Mookie! I’m glad you keep this Rap shit goin’ wit all your HOT music!! Keep up tha GR8 work and keep collaboratin’ wit people!! Also, keep supportin’ tha jiggalatin’ movement like always!

Either way, it sounds catchy when you come through wit deliverin’ tha rhymes! Sounds like “too bad” at tha end wit tha sample? Hot shit! My Rating: 4.413. “Bow”
“BOW!!,” lol! >>> Likin’ tha start here a LOT!
You DEFINITELY “feelin’ good” when it comes ta deliverin’ dis Rap shit right chea!! You got good shit fa err-body right here on tha 1st verse; I always luv how you come through on all tha tracks!!

Tha unstoppable Mookie Blakk did a NICE job on tha 1st verse!! *Gasps* Dyl on tha NON-last verse (2nd verse), lol! I like how he included tha word “buku” in dis ‘cause you KNOW you gotta have tha BR slang in here! More gr8 rappin’ here that DOESN’T need a minus at all!! Great job on his verse and now, tha remainin’ verse from Cas! He nearly sounds like Dyl so I’m assumin’ he white too. Comin’ back on this CD wit tha “rollin’, rollin’, rollin’” shit!
Hearin’ tha hook for tha last time and your “must have a boomerang…ass comes back” part in tha hook iz DEFINITELY REAL NICE!!! Sounded like this shit turned out pretty good! My Current Rating: 4.315. “Letter To The President”
I guess you’re Mookie-Political-Blakk now, lol! Let’s see your story and perspective here… >>> A slowed down “X-Fyle on tha track” tag in tha beginning; sounds pretty anticipatin’ wit this beat! I hope it continues ta sound good! As tha beat gets betta, I like tha “I pledge…” part! You sound like someone else on tha beginning of tha 1st verse wit tha letter-spellin’. However, tha rhymes sound good here, ya dig! Too bad “racism still alive in tha state you’re in.”
I’m glad y’all DEFINITELY accept me fa who I am and not what color I am ‘cause I do BUKU SHIT fa y’all and y’all luv it!! It’s like you’re seein’ somethin’ you’ve neva seen before in your lives: reviewz, commercials and continuous shit!! I like tha 2nd verse wit your name repeatin’, as if they were addressin’ you in tha 3rd person! I luv how people LUV tha president and political situations in life, lol. I feel like wit my Autism, I can’t even register history or any kinda real-life political shit in my head ‘cause it’s not dat big of a strength to me… My Rating: 4.416. “Presidential Life”
Shit, you’re missin’ an “i” before tha “al” in tha title… Anyway, it was a simple error and not somethin’ gay like a “than” instead of “then” or vice-versa. Anyway, anotha “presidential”-type theme here? How ‘bout dat “presidential shit” you smoke? I have a feelin’ dat’s what this’ll sound like! >>> A faster “X-Fyle on tha track” tag this time, lol. Almost sounds like New York-type Rap music in tha beat here but I’m sure it’ll sound gr8 wit you on it! Also, this sounds like older New Orleans-type Louisiana Rap music dat would be on dat gangsta shit!
Tha song itself iz aight for a start… Tha rhymes were cool in tha 1st verse and tha hook sounds good although there’s not much in it… I like tha Reggae style although sometimes, I feel like when people put tha Reggae shit in their songs, it reminds me of Kevin Gates all tha time. LOL, two minutes in already? Where’s tha next verse? Only one verse? Damn… Sounds like a good, short song for my radio show wit this nice, long beat outro though. My Rating: 4.0 17. “Walk Through The Valley”
Hope we don’t end it sad… >>> Almost 5.5 minutes on tha length too? I dunno… Concept did tha beat here (I think he did on tha previous ones on here too). I’m not too into this singin’ on tha hook here… I hope you revive it wit your character! Tha singer (feature) iz not listed again… Not really catchin’ onto this… It sounded too much wit tha singer mixed in wit like additional parts. LOL, don’t tell me tha beat outro iz like 3:20… Okay, tha hook came back a lil’ bit; a lil’ too long of an interlude though. There iz a 2nd verse here and it’s you, spittin’ some good hood shit at least. LOL, who would’ve guessed a 3rd verse would be here afta tha interlude? It’s an aight verse… Good rhymes though and tha production’s pretty good. My Rating: 3.1
Overall: You did tha damn thang on this CD; good shit, Mookie! I’m glad you keep this Rap shit goin’ wit all your HOT music!! Keep up tha GR8 work and keep collaboratin’ wit people!! Also, keep supportin’ tha jiggalatin’ movement like always!

Review #413: Quikkdraw "Put A Beat On..."
Reviewed on 4.23.2010 (Review #413)
Keepin’ this shit goin’, here goes tha 4th review I’m doin’ today: My big dawg Quikkdraw wit his CD, “Put A Beat On…;” FUCKIN’ LUV dat title!! It’s like he’s SO focused!!! Really, just “put a beat on!!” Thanx, Lah, for mailin’ me a hard copy!!! Start Time: 7:45 PM | End Time: 9:10 PM
Quick Note: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself wit my ratings!! I don’t care how lyrical you are! As long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals and then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings (if a song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6 rating, I pretty much REALLY LOVE it as it’s considered “mindblowin’” when I hear it) so any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> ” iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song. Anything after I type “ >>> ” iz what I think of tha song while I’m listening to it.

Ooh, a Vybe beat here; Quikkdraw gon EXPLODE like a bomb!!! Nice job wit rappin’ ova this beat and doin’ ya thang here! Nice job wit tha 1st verse and keepin’ it trill 24/7! Ooh, tha hook came (I thought it was earlier) and it sounds REAL catchy when you say tha title; you a beast!!

Good job right here, my boy! My Rating: 4.5
04. Hustla (Interlude)
Oh, shit, an interlude!!! I DEFINITELY look forward ta you havin’ interludes, ya dig!!! Too bad it’s only 26 seconds… >>> *Knewwww!!* My aunt Judy’s ringtone!! I like how everytime you have a lil’ talk break, it’s about some of dat good!! My Rating: N/A
05. “Hustla”
Let’s hear this anticipatin’ song!!! >>> ROFL @ tha “you can put dat beat back on;” sounds like J Buc on tha beat this time!! Iz it him? I can pick his sound effects out, ya dig! Yup, I heard his beat tag and it’s DEFINITELY anotha hot one!! Sounds like you’re a lil’ fucked up in tha hook, lol? It sounds GR8 though ‘cause it’s a J Buc beat, ya dig! DEFINITELY on tha street tip/shit here in tha 1st verse; you KNOW I’m feelin’ it… EVERY bit of it!!! Zombiefied start to tha 2nd verse, lol; you REALLY be on your street shit all day!! You tellin’ tha truth here, keepin’ it real all tha time in tha song! Tha 3rd verse also keeps you in a motivational mood; DEFINITELY feelin’ it!! This shit would sound GR8 on my radio show!! Glad I got more songs from you!!! My Rating: 4.7
06. “Money On Da Road”
Oh, Quikkdraw, what would we do without you? >>> Sounds like E.D.’s focused on tha beat here! You DEFINITELY keepin’ it TOO real here; “100% real shit” like you just said!! This beat has a lil’ bit of a Kevin Gates vibe to it (like Guss on tha beat)! You just SO FOCUSED here; that’s why you told E.D. to “put a beat on!” Tha hook sounds pretty good here!! You’re really advanced in life here wit “fuckin’ all tha hoes” and shit; thumbs up ta you! A no bullshitted-Quikkdraw iz on tha 2nd verse here, just doin’ tha damn thang wit your life!! I picture you in your car right now on tha 3rd verse, just cruisin’ along… Thumbs up ta this whole song!! My Rating: 4.5
07. “Neva Buy In, Neva Sell Out”
Ooh, I smell a GR8 drug-related song here!!! Let’s see what we got here!! >>> Vybe beat here and I thought it sounded like Gucci Mane in tha beginning? It was you, really focused wit your “put a beat on” theme dat I’m luvin’! This sounds pretty good for a start and it’s pretty good on tha drug-related tip mixed wit a few otha shit you rappin’ ‘bout here! I’m hearin’ tha beginnin’ of tha hook and your flow sounds catchy here! I hear tha title and it’s true/good; glad you expressin’ it, or should I say, “expre$$in’,” wit dolla sign$! Buku shit goin’ on wit tha 2nd verse; you DEFINITELY have a LOT ta spit/talk about!! Shit, no 3rd verse? Let’s see what you got fa tha talkin’ at tha end wit this 51 seconds left… Sounds like you know 1,000,000 people or somethin’; how do you make people take you serious outside of a conversation? I been tryin’ to battle dat all my life and hope Louisiana keeps buildin’ it up!! Tha only thing iz I don’t see y’all on a daily basis but soon, hopefully! My Rating: 4.4
08. “Hata Hurta”
So O.B. did this track, I see. I thought I knew who he was from somewhere (EDIT: Lil’ Boxx’s song “Can’t Stop Moving”)… Just LUV this song!!!!! I LUV how it says, “you’se a hata hurta,” in tha hook!!!!! Iz dat your voice screwed? It’s REAL catchy when you brawlin’ wit it, sayin’, “you’se a hata hurta,” also wit it!! Cool beat here and when you say, “call me Quikkdraw,” at 1:08? That’s prolly how I say your name like “Quikkdraw” ‘cause of how you 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 and I’m GLAD I finally got ta review it!! You crushin’ all tha hataz in tha 1st verse and DEFINITELY not “color struck” in tha 2nd verse! I agree about tha start of tha 3rd verse: “You should be arrested for dat aggravated stuntin’…!” Most definitely!! Glad I’m holdin’ you down and you cool wit Lah!! I would’ve neva had your CD if it wasn’t fa him (real copy in my hands dat iz)!! My Current Rating: 4.9
09. Store Run
LUVIN’ your titles; OMG!!! This prolly gon go through tha roof again!!! >>> LMAO, it’s a skit!!! “Shit yea,” you caught me off guard!!! How ‘bout those people in tha background; do they know about me yet? They sound cool; you know I fuck wit err-body! I can feel what you sayin’ here; feels like I’m with you!! You and your “BUDDHA!!!” My Rating: N/A
10. “Extravagant” Feat. J Buc & DJ B-Real
Shit yea!!! GR8 ta have this right afta tha skit!! REAL HOT beat from J Buc; he reminds me of tha next BluBlack on tha beats!! Tha hook DEFINITELY tight!! Tha 1st ½ of it sounds hella tight and you KNOW tha 2nd ½ iz official wit tha title repeatin’!!! Even comin’ down ta tha rappin’: Tha 1st verse iz you doin’ tha damn thang here!! It ain’t NOTHIN’ like Jigga City!!! Tha 2nd 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 3rd verse! Nice job wit tha verse here, ya dig!! Lookin’ like a HUGE song fa tha future!! My Current Rating: 4.9
½time: SUPA HOT RIGHT CHEA, QUIKKDRAW!!! VERY, VERY TIGHT!!! Tha average CD rating iz 4.6 and you just REALLY got tha production, rappin’ and topics ALL on point!!! There’s a bunch of features left on this CD so you KNOW I’m lookin’ forward ta tha rest of it!!!
11. “Truish”
Of course, when it’s your mouth, it’s DEFINITELY “true!!” Uh oh, E.D. producin’ this so you KNOW he told you to, “put a beat on!!” >>> Cool-ass beat intro here and you sound good in tha beginning!! Ooh, an anthem for tha ones dat keep it real!!! Luvin’ tha “truish” shit in tha hook!! You definin’ your freshness in tha 1st verse here; good shit, my boy! Do you deal wit a lotta fake people on a daily basis? No one can take your shine!! You keepin’ your swag up wit tha 2nd verse here, doin’ ya thang to tha fullest! LOL, where’d all tha “ass” and shit come from in tha 3rd verse? It emerged onto tha track like it’s nothin’, lol. My Rating: 4.6
12. Corner Store Skit Feat. Xen
Uh oh, a skit wit 2:19 on tha length!!! Shit-to-tha-fuckin’-yea!!! >>> ROFL/LMFAO @ you fulla dat shit!!!!! Just luv how you sound on this!!! How much pounds did you smoke? I like how tha beat sounds hidden in tha back (like a stereo vibe) at :23! What’s happenin’ at :38 wit tha genie beat? Quikk, you makin’ a genie come out? You sound like a robot when you on all dis shit, lol! You want more “Doritos,” lol? Crazy-ass Quikkdraw!!! My Rating: N/A
EDIT: Just randomly checked DatPiff’s tracklist (‘cause I’m switchin’ back ‘n’ forth from tha CD to tha DatPiff) and I see dat Xen was featured on this; good shit!! Gotta fuckin’ luv Xen too!!!
13. “Ridin’ Dirtee”
You spelled “dirty” tha same way Dizzee Rascal spells it, lol. Maybe a future collaboration? LOL, I’m just playin’; he in tha UK! Let’s see (wit only 2:34 on tha length; almost as long as tha skit) how fast you can ride within this song!! Shout out ta E.D. on tha beat; you gon have ta “put this beat on!!” >>> Sounds hella cool for a start here; you got dis shit on lock!!! LOL, where’d tha trumpets come from outta nowhere @ :12!! LOL, all tha collisionful Quikkdraw raps comin’ at me @ :24!!! You TOO FUCKIN’ GR8; such a character!!! REAL NICE job wit tha 1st verse and tha hook sounds cool wit tha sample; DEFINITELY “ridin’ dirtee” to tha fullest on this shit! You got some good shit comin’ outta tha 2nd verse here, just really “ridin’ dirtee” to tha fullest!! My Rating: 4.8
14. “Can’t Controll It” Feat. Xen
I didn’t fall for tha Xen feature this time!!! I looked at it on DatPiff; why you takin’ Xen outta tha features on tha back cover?
Not good… But, now dat I notice him, I feel hella anticipated fa this shit; what up, big Xen?!? Ike Numberz on this beat so you KNOW you REALLY gon have ta have “a beat on,” lol!!! >>> LOL @ tha smokin’ in tha beginning; somethin’ tol’ me this was gonna be on a smokin’/not bein’ able to “controll it” tip!! Sounds nice and Jamaican for tha beginning and tha beat iz kick-ass in a different/somewhat Reggae way!! You’re on tha 1st verse here and you just LUVIN’ tha kush!!! How’d you get interested in tha kush? You rememba tha date and time you first took an inhale of it? LOL… Tha hook sounds cool wit dat singin’ sample; good shit! I wonder what Xen—neva mind, you’re on tha 2nd verse! You’re SO in luv wit tha kush once again!! You LUV tha colors; you’re not “color struck” like in “Hata Hurta,” lol. You think “tha airplanes so loud,” lol? ROFL… Shit yea, here’s dat boy Xen on tha 3rd verse, comin’ through wit some “dreadful-griminess,” lol!! He got some HOT street shit here; fuckin’ luv my boy Xen!!! Kick-ass rhymes at tha end and it went ALL tha way to tha end!!!!! My Rating: 4.8
15. “Tap’d Out”
E.D. on tha beat again!! Anotha quickie (only 2.5 minutes)… I KNOW you gon hol’ it down!!! >>> Sounds like you’re at a radio station in tha beginning… Oh, iz this anotha skit, lol? Sounds like where tha genie scene left off… I can tell it’s a skit ‘cause tha first two lines didn’t rhyme. What’s goin’ on here? Tell me… I’m slowly gettin’ confused… Are you just high or somethin’?
EDIT: Just checked it out again and because I saw dat E.D. was on tha beat, I decided to consider this a song. It’s still a lil’ weird ta review though… I don’t know what ta say ‘bout tha 1st verse… I guess you’re really high or somethin’? It sounds funny towards tha 2:09 mark… I’m still confused at what ta rate this… My Rating: 4.2
16. Da Real Feat. DJ B-Real
Anotha DJ B-Real feature; you KNOW you official!! You don’t have tha listed producer so I assume he produced it; let’s see… >>> Shit, it’s anotha skit! You fulla dat shit!! Shout out ta DJ B-Real on tha feature/check in!! No wonder there was no production credit! If #15 was meant to be a song, lemme know and I’ll re-hear it. My Rating: N/A
17. “Concept”
Tha producer has a self-titled production here, lol! Concept iz also tha producer and you’re tha rapper here, Quikkdraw; do tha damn thang (as in response to what B-Real was sayin’ about, “How you define yourself/music?”)!! >>> ROFL, where’d dat beat intro come outta? LOL!! LUV tha unexpected!! Sounds like a raw, Rock-Hop beat for you!! You got a lotta shit goin’ on in tha 1st verse here; murderin’ these tracks to tha fullest!! You goin’ long on tha 1st verse here; just SO consistent here!! I hear somethin’ different at 1:47; iz dat tha short hook? LOL… You spittin’ fiya on tha track here!! Kinda on a freestyle feel wit tha consistent rappin’; keep doin’ tha damn thang!! Nice job wit tha raw shit comin’ outta tha 2nd verse!! My Rating: 4.5
18. “Um Ill”
This has ta be REAL good!!! J Buc did tha beat and although tha title’s a lil’ familiar ta somethin’ in tha mainstream now, I KNOW wit Mr. Buc on tha beat, you gon do yo thang ‘cause… … … he “put a beat on,” lol!!! >>> You took tha Lil’ Wayne sample of “A Milli” instead of tha Red Café song wit tha Jay-Z sample… Sounds like a good start and when you have a sample in your song, you KNOW it adds more to your character, Quikkdraw! Doesn’t sound like a J Buc beat here but it’s still good. I don’t like some of tha typical sounds in tha beat but it doesn’t matter ‘cause it’s good! You got some fiya comin’ out yo mouth on tha 1st verse here; TIGHTNESS!! LOL, where did dat chipmunk come outta @ 1:39? LOL… You got tha undaground on lock right now, ya dig! You doin’ a good job on tha 2nd verse too; “transformin’,” lol! What can a Quikkdraw transform into, lol? You’re tha shit as it iz! My Rating: 4.4
19. “Where U Been” Feat. A.R.
E.D. did this beat this time so you KNOW tha “beat’s on,” lol! Let’s see what this one has in store!! …Wait, I just checked DatPiff and A.R. iz featured on it; why didn’t you source him in tha CD cover? >>> Sounds like an anthem iz about ta start in tha beginning; dunn, dunn, dunn!!! Tha 1st verse emerged outta nowhere and you got REAL tight rhymes goin’ on here!! Tha “wheezin’” part caught my attention; nothin’ but strength on tha track!!! REAL NICE 1st verse, ya dig!! Oh, shit, iz dat A.R. on tha beat? Holy shit, he caught my attention to tha fullest!! Fuckin’ tightness on tha hook!!! Not only dat, he’s too good ta have tha 2nd verse too!!! Feelin’ his verse right here; good street shit, A.R.! My Rating: 4.7
20. “Goin’ Hard”
Anotha “beat on,” lol, ‘cause E.D.’s on tha beat again! I already know you be “goin’ hard” on this WHOLE CD right chea, ya heard me!! That’s why your CD’s gonna have an au—I won’t give it away! You gotta stay tuned ‘cause I can feel it!!! >>> Sounds like a J Buc in tha beginnin’ or somethin’ (like wit “Extravagant” wit tha “shit!” intro)!! Tha beat’s cool here and it sounds like you’re younger or somethin’… This shit sounds like it gon go hard!! I prolly could’ve felt more anger in your voice/attitude here on tha 1st verse but it’s cool ‘cause you got tha rhymes ta back you up on this shit! I like your “fillin’ it” parts when it comes to tha dutch in tha 2nd verse, ya dig. Just luv when you rap, ya dig!! Glad you have a WHOLE MIXTAPE to yourself!! Even an ending (kinda like a bridge) fit in this song too, feelin’ powered up!! My Rating: 4.3
21. “I Bleed Dis” Feat. J Buc & Nu$$ie
I feel like I’m DYIN’ ta hear this fa some reason… I thought tha Nu$$ie songs were done by now but this one just seems like it can breathe some GR8 2008 air into this year!!! Let’s see what we got here wit J Buc on tha beat!! >>> Would prolly’ve predicted Beat Flippa on tha beat if I didn’t see who produced it; GRIMY-ASS intro here wit tha beat!!! Sounds like J Buc on tha hook and he comin’ through wit some gutta-ass shit here!! DEFINITELY tightness here!! Speakin’ of Buc, here he iz on tha 1st verse, havin’ his “pants sag” so you know he gets a plus fa what he does all day!! He did tha damn thang on his verse wit this gutta beat here dat he produced, ya dig!! Let’s see what we got fa tha 2nd—damn, Quikkdraw!! You just comin’ through wit all tha HOT-ASS rhymes and rappin’ here!!! Too much goin’ on here ta where it’s TOO good!!! DEFINITELY a REAL TIGHT verse, Quikkboy, lol! For tha final verse of tha CD… dunn, dunn, dunn… I always stereotype it as a recycled verse but I think he just recycles his lines a lot. I neva heard tha “lunchable” part before so this iz new. Sounds good ta have tha Nu$$ on a track!! He did tha damn thang on this too!! I wish I would’ve had this February 13 ‘cause I would’ve thrown it in my R.I.P. Nu$$ie Tribute Show! Either way, I DEFINITELY luv tha fade-out ending ta this song/this WHOLE CD!!! My Rating: 4.8
Overall: What a Quikkdraw!!! What a Quikkdraw!!! I said, “What a Quikkdraw!!!” You DEFINITELY have REAL TIGHT music right chea!!! And what I was sayin’ before: You’re gettin’ an automatic 5* rating for your CD ‘cause every song was 4.0 or higher (no less, you got 4.2 or higher for each one)!!! REAL, REAL TIGHT, my boy!!! You KNOW I luv you and what you do to tha fullest!!! Keep up tha gr8 work and keep puttin’ out HOT-ASS, RAW-ASS, TIGHT-ASS MUSIC!!!!!

What’ll “dis” sound like, lol? I KNOW you REALLY been on your shit!!! >>> Luv tha “put a beat on” theme; it’s SO good ta where I almost said, “put a theme on!”
Ooh, a Vybe beat here; Quikkdraw gon EXPLODE like a bomb!!! Nice job wit rappin’ ova this beat and doin’ ya thang here! Nice job wit tha 1st verse and keepin’ it trill 24/7! Ooh, tha hook came (I thought it was earlier) and it sounds REAL catchy when you say tha title; you a beast!! LOL @ how you said, “nigga,” on tha 2nd verse; “my niga.” You ALWAYS have an ear for catchiness!! As for tha 3rd verse right here, you still have your consistent flow/rhymes! Good job right here, my boy! My Rating: 4.504. Hustla (Interlude)
Oh, shit, an interlude!!! I DEFINITELY look forward ta you havin’ interludes, ya dig!!! Too bad it’s only 26 seconds… >>> *Knewwww!!* My aunt Judy’s ringtone!! I like how everytime you have a lil’ talk break, it’s about some of dat good!! My Rating: N/A
05. “Hustla”
Let’s hear this anticipatin’ song!!! >>> ROFL @ tha “you can put dat beat back on;” sounds like J Buc on tha beat this time!! Iz it him? I can pick his sound effects out, ya dig! Yup, I heard his beat tag and it’s DEFINITELY anotha hot one!! Sounds like you’re a lil’ fucked up in tha hook, lol? It sounds GR8 though ‘cause it’s a J Buc beat, ya dig! DEFINITELY on tha street tip/shit here in tha 1st verse; you KNOW I’m feelin’ it… EVERY bit of it!!! Zombiefied start to tha 2nd verse, lol; you REALLY be on your street shit all day!! You tellin’ tha truth here, keepin’ it real all tha time in tha song! Tha 3rd verse also keeps you in a motivational mood; DEFINITELY feelin’ it!! This shit would sound GR8 on my radio show!! Glad I got more songs from you!!! My Rating: 4.7
06. “Money On Da Road”
Oh, Quikkdraw, what would we do without you? >>> Sounds like E.D.’s focused on tha beat here! You DEFINITELY keepin’ it TOO real here; “100% real shit” like you just said!! This beat has a lil’ bit of a Kevin Gates vibe to it (like Guss on tha beat)! You just SO FOCUSED here; that’s why you told E.D. to “put a beat on!” Tha hook sounds pretty good here!! You’re really advanced in life here wit “fuckin’ all tha hoes” and shit; thumbs up ta you! A no bullshitted-Quikkdraw iz on tha 2nd verse here, just doin’ tha damn thang wit your life!! I picture you in your car right now on tha 3rd verse, just cruisin’ along… Thumbs up ta this whole song!! My Rating: 4.5
07. “Neva Buy In, Neva Sell Out”
Ooh, I smell a GR8 drug-related song here!!! Let’s see what we got here!! >>> Vybe beat here and I thought it sounded like Gucci Mane in tha beginning? It was you, really focused wit your “put a beat on” theme dat I’m luvin’! This sounds pretty good for a start and it’s pretty good on tha drug-related tip mixed wit a few otha shit you rappin’ ‘bout here! I’m hearin’ tha beginnin’ of tha hook and your flow sounds catchy here! I hear tha title and it’s true/good; glad you expressin’ it, or should I say, “expre$$in’,” wit dolla sign$! Buku shit goin’ on wit tha 2nd verse; you DEFINITELY have a LOT ta spit/talk about!!
Shit, no 3rd verse? Let’s see what you got fa tha talkin’ at tha end wit this 51 seconds left… Sounds like you know 1,000,000 people or somethin’; how do you make people take you serious outside of a conversation? I been tryin’ to battle dat all my life and hope Louisiana keeps buildin’ it up!! Tha only thing iz I don’t see y’all on a daily basis but soon, hopefully! My Rating: 4.408. “Hata Hurta”
So O.B. did this track, I see. I thought I knew who he was from somewhere (EDIT: Lil’ Boxx’s song “Can’t Stop Moving”)… Just LUV this song!!!!! I LUV how it says, “you’se a hata hurta,” in tha hook!!!!! Iz dat your voice screwed? It’s REAL catchy when you brawlin’ wit it, sayin’, “you’se a hata hurta,” also wit it!! Cool beat here and when you say, “call me Quikkdraw,” at 1:08? That’s prolly how I say your name like “Quikkdraw” ‘cause of how you 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 and I’m GLAD I finally got ta review it!! You crushin’ all tha hataz in tha 1st verse and DEFINITELY not “color struck” in tha 2nd verse! I agree about tha start of tha 3rd verse: “You should be arrested for dat aggravated stuntin’…!” Most definitely!! Glad I’m holdin’ you down and you cool wit Lah!! I would’ve neva had your CD if it wasn’t fa him (real copy in my hands dat iz)!! My Current Rating: 4.9
09. Store Run
LUVIN’ your titles; OMG!!! This prolly gon go through tha roof again!!! >>> LMAO, it’s a skit!!! “Shit yea,” you caught me off guard!!! How ‘bout those people in tha background; do they know about me yet? They sound cool; you know I fuck wit err-body! I can feel what you sayin’ here; feels like I’m with you!! You and your “BUDDHA!!!” My Rating: N/A
10. “Extravagant” Feat. J Buc & DJ B-Real
Shit yea!!! GR8 ta have this right afta tha skit!! REAL HOT beat from J Buc; he reminds me of tha next BluBlack on tha beats!! Tha hook DEFINITELY tight!! Tha 1st ½ of it sounds hella tight and you KNOW tha 2nd ½ iz official wit tha title repeatin’!!! Even comin’ down ta tha rappin’: Tha 1st verse iz you doin’ tha damn thang here!! It ain’t NOTHIN’ like Jigga City!!! Tha 2nd 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 3rd verse! Nice job wit tha verse here, ya dig!! Lookin’ like a HUGE song fa tha future!! My Current Rating: 4.9
½time: SUPA HOT RIGHT CHEA, QUIKKDRAW!!! VERY, VERY TIGHT!!! Tha average CD rating iz 4.6 and you just REALLY got tha production, rappin’ and topics ALL on point!!! There’s a bunch of features left on this CD so you KNOW I’m lookin’ forward ta tha rest of it!!!
11. “Truish”
Of course, when it’s your mouth, it’s DEFINITELY “true!!” Uh oh, E.D. producin’ this so you KNOW he told you to, “put a beat on!!” >>> Cool-ass beat intro here and you sound good in tha beginning!! Ooh, an anthem for tha ones dat keep it real!!! Luvin’ tha “truish” shit in tha hook!! You definin’ your freshness in tha 1st verse here; good shit, my boy! Do you deal wit a lotta fake people on a daily basis? No one can take your shine!! You keepin’ your swag up wit tha 2nd verse here, doin’ ya thang to tha fullest! LOL, where’d all tha “ass” and shit come from in tha 3rd verse? It emerged onto tha track like it’s nothin’, lol. My Rating: 4.6
12. Corner Store Skit Feat. Xen
Uh oh, a skit wit 2:19 on tha length!!! Shit-to-tha-fuckin’-yea!!! >>> ROFL/LMFAO @ you fulla dat shit!!!!!
Just luv how you sound on this!!! How much pounds did you smoke? I like how tha beat sounds hidden in tha back (like a stereo vibe) at :23! What’s happenin’ at :38 wit tha genie beat? Quikk, you makin’ a genie come out? You sound like a robot when you on all dis shit, lol! You want more “Doritos,” lol? Crazy-ass Quikkdraw!!! My Rating: N/AEDIT: Just randomly checked DatPiff’s tracklist (‘cause I’m switchin’ back ‘n’ forth from tha CD to tha DatPiff) and I see dat Xen was featured on this; good shit!! Gotta fuckin’ luv Xen too!!!
13. “Ridin’ Dirtee”
You spelled “dirty” tha same way Dizzee Rascal spells it, lol. Maybe a future collaboration? LOL, I’m just playin’; he in tha UK! Let’s see (wit only 2:34 on tha length; almost as long as tha skit) how fast you can ride within this song!! Shout out ta E.D. on tha beat; you gon have ta “put this beat on!!” >>> Sounds hella cool for a start here; you got dis shit on lock!!! LOL, where’d tha trumpets come from outta nowhere @ :12!! LOL, all tha collisionful Quikkdraw raps comin’ at me @ :24!!!
You TOO FUCKIN’ GR8; such a character!!! REAL NICE job wit tha 1st verse and tha hook sounds cool wit tha sample; DEFINITELY “ridin’ dirtee” to tha fullest on this shit! You got some good shit comin’ outta tha 2nd verse here, just really “ridin’ dirtee” to tha fullest!! My Rating: 4.814. “Can’t Controll It” Feat. Xen
I didn’t fall for tha Xen feature this time!!! I looked at it on DatPiff; why you takin’ Xen outta tha features on tha back cover?
Not good… But, now dat I notice him, I feel hella anticipated fa this shit; what up, big Xen?!? Ike Numberz on this beat so you KNOW you REALLY gon have ta have “a beat on,” lol!!! >>> LOL @ tha smokin’ in tha beginning; somethin’ tol’ me this was gonna be on a smokin’/not bein’ able to “controll it” tip!! Sounds nice and Jamaican for tha beginning and tha beat iz kick-ass in a different/somewhat Reggae way!! You’re on tha 1st verse here and you just LUVIN’ tha kush!!! How’d you get interested in tha kush? You rememba tha date and time you first took an inhale of it? LOL… Tha hook sounds cool wit dat singin’ sample; good shit! I wonder what Xen—neva mind, you’re on tha 2nd verse! You’re SO in luv wit tha kush once again!! You LUV tha colors; you’re not “color struck” like in “Hata Hurta,” lol. You think “tha airplanes so loud,” lol? ROFL… Shit yea, here’s dat boy Xen on tha 3rd verse, comin’ through wit some “dreadful-griminess,” lol!! He got some HOT street shit here; fuckin’ luv my boy Xen!!! Kick-ass rhymes at tha end and it went ALL tha way to tha end!!!!! My Rating: 4.815. “Tap’d Out”
E.D. on tha beat again!! Anotha quickie (only 2.5 minutes)… I KNOW you gon hol’ it down!!! >>> Sounds like you’re at a radio station in tha beginning… Oh, iz this anotha skit, lol? Sounds like where tha genie scene left off… I can tell it’s a skit ‘cause tha first two lines didn’t rhyme. What’s goin’ on here? Tell me… I’m slowly gettin’ confused… Are you just high or somethin’?
EDIT: Just checked it out again and because I saw dat E.D. was on tha beat, I decided to consider this a song. It’s still a lil’ weird ta review though… I don’t know what ta say ‘bout tha 1st verse… I guess you’re really high or somethin’? It sounds funny towards tha 2:09 mark… I’m still confused at what ta rate this… My Rating: 4.2
16. Da Real Feat. DJ B-Real
Anotha DJ B-Real feature; you KNOW you official!! You don’t have tha listed producer so I assume he produced it; let’s see… >>> Shit, it’s anotha skit! You fulla dat shit!! Shout out ta DJ B-Real on tha feature/check in!! No wonder there was no production credit! If #15 was meant to be a song, lemme know and I’ll re-hear it. My Rating: N/A
17. “Concept”
Tha producer has a self-titled production here, lol! Concept iz also tha producer and you’re tha rapper here, Quikkdraw; do tha damn thang (as in response to what B-Real was sayin’ about, “How you define yourself/music?”)!! >>> ROFL, where’d dat beat intro come outta? LOL!! LUV tha unexpected!! Sounds like a raw, Rock-Hop beat for you!! You got a lotta shit goin’ on in tha 1st verse here; murderin’ these tracks to tha fullest!! You goin’ long on tha 1st verse here; just SO consistent here!! I hear somethin’ different at 1:47; iz dat tha short hook? LOL… You spittin’ fiya on tha track here!! Kinda on a freestyle feel wit tha consistent rappin’; keep doin’ tha damn thang!! Nice job wit tha raw shit comin’ outta tha 2nd verse!! My Rating: 4.5
18. “Um Ill”
This has ta be REAL good!!! J Buc did tha beat and although tha title’s a lil’ familiar ta somethin’ in tha mainstream now, I KNOW wit Mr. Buc on tha beat, you gon do yo thang ‘cause… … … he “put a beat on,” lol!!! >>> You took tha Lil’ Wayne sample of “A Milli” instead of tha Red Café song wit tha Jay-Z sample… Sounds like a good start and when you have a sample in your song, you KNOW it adds more to your character, Quikkdraw! Doesn’t sound like a J Buc beat here but it’s still good. I don’t like some of tha typical sounds in tha beat but it doesn’t matter ‘cause it’s good! You got some fiya comin’ out yo mouth on tha 1st verse here; TIGHTNESS!! LOL, where did dat chipmunk come outta @ 1:39? LOL… You got tha undaground on lock right now, ya dig! You doin’ a good job on tha 2nd verse too; “transformin’,” lol! What can a Quikkdraw transform into, lol? You’re tha shit as it iz! My Rating: 4.4
19. “Where U Been” Feat. A.R.
E.D. did this beat this time so you KNOW tha “beat’s on,” lol! Let’s see what this one has in store!! …Wait, I just checked DatPiff and A.R. iz featured on it; why didn’t you source him in tha CD cover? >>> Sounds like an anthem iz about ta start in tha beginning; dunn, dunn, dunn!!! Tha 1st verse emerged outta nowhere and you got REAL tight rhymes goin’ on here!! Tha “wheezin’” part caught my attention; nothin’ but strength on tha track!!! REAL NICE 1st verse, ya dig!! Oh, shit, iz dat A.R. on tha beat? Holy shit, he caught my attention to tha fullest!! Fuckin’ tightness on tha hook!!! Not only dat, he’s too good ta have tha 2nd verse too!!! Feelin’ his verse right here; good street shit, A.R.!
My Rating: 4.720. “Goin’ Hard”
Anotha “beat on,” lol, ‘cause E.D.’s on tha beat again! I already know you be “goin’ hard” on this WHOLE CD right chea, ya heard me!! That’s why your CD’s gonna have an au—I won’t give it away! You gotta stay tuned ‘cause I can feel it!!! >>> Sounds like a J Buc in tha beginnin’ or somethin’ (like wit “Extravagant” wit tha “shit!” intro)!! Tha beat’s cool here and it sounds like you’re younger or somethin’… This shit sounds like it gon go hard!! I prolly could’ve felt more anger in your voice/attitude here on tha 1st verse but it’s cool ‘cause you got tha rhymes ta back you up on this shit! I like your “fillin’ it” parts when it comes to tha dutch in tha 2nd verse, ya dig. Just luv when you rap, ya dig!! Glad you have a WHOLE MIXTAPE to yourself!! Even an ending (kinda like a bridge) fit in this song too, feelin’ powered up!! My Rating: 4.3
21. “I Bleed Dis” Feat. J Buc & Nu$$ie
I feel like I’m DYIN’ ta hear this fa some reason… I thought tha Nu$$ie songs were done by now but this one just seems like it can breathe some GR8 2008 air into this year!!! Let’s see what we got here wit J Buc on tha beat!! >>> Would prolly’ve predicted Beat Flippa on tha beat if I didn’t see who produced it; GRIMY-ASS intro here wit tha beat!!! Sounds like J Buc on tha hook and he comin’ through wit some gutta-ass shit here!! DEFINITELY tightness here!! Speakin’ of Buc, here he iz on tha 1st verse, havin’ his “pants sag” so you know he gets a plus fa what he does all day!! He did tha damn thang on his verse wit this gutta beat here dat he produced, ya dig!! Let’s see what we got fa tha 2nd—damn, Quikkdraw!! You just comin’ through wit all tha HOT-ASS rhymes and rappin’ here!!! Too much goin’ on here ta where it’s TOO good!!! DEFINITELY a REAL TIGHT verse, Quikkboy, lol! For tha final verse of tha CD… dunn, dunn, dunn… I always stereotype it as a recycled verse but I think he just recycles his lines a lot. I neva heard tha “lunchable” part before so this iz new. Sounds good ta have tha Nu$$ on a track!! He did tha damn thang on this too!! I wish I would’ve had this February 13 ‘cause I would’ve thrown it in my R.I.P. Nu$$ie Tribute Show! Either way, I DEFINITELY luv tha fade-out ending ta this song/this WHOLE CD!!! My Rating: 4.8
Overall: What a Quikkdraw!!! What a Quikkdraw!!! I said, “What a Quikkdraw!!!” You DEFINITELY have REAL TIGHT music right chea!!! And what I was sayin’ before: You’re gettin’ an automatic 5* rating for your CD ‘cause every song was 4.0 or higher (no less, you got 4.2 or higher for each one)!!! REAL, REAL TIGHT, my boy!!! You KNOW I luv you and what you do to tha fullest!!! Keep up tha gr8 work and keep puttin’ out HOT-ASS, RAW-ASS, TIGHT-ASS MUSIC!!!!!

Review #56: Sleepy "The Prototype II: The Second Coming"
Reviewed
on 2.14.2008 & 2.15.2008 (Review No. 56)
Wat tha deal iz… It's yo boy Frankie checkin' in again. Happy Valentine's Day.
Tonight I'm reviewing this joint by Sleepy called "The Prototype
II: The Second Coming". I wonder how it's gonna turn out… Props to my boy
Jimmy The DJ for sendin' it to me! Start Time: 11:03 PM | Video Game
Playing: Tony Hawk Pro Skater (for Nintendo 64) (on my computer)
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 or have
auto-tune in your vocals, I’m not
buyin’ it!
© 2008 CD Review (Review #56)
reviewed on 2.14.2008 & 2.15.2008 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.
01. "Prototype II (Intro)"
Time to set tha bar on tha AL (anticipation level). Hopefully it's a good intro. >>> Tha background beat reminds me of Dee-1's "Priceless" beat. Yeah kinda long intro, but yeah, curious to see what this gon sound like. My Rating: N/A
02. "2nd Coming"
Not just "2nd coming", but it's also tha "2nd joint" on tha CD, lol. How'z this gon start off? >>> Sounds more on tha underground side of thangz. That's cool. Slow start to tha beat, but it sounds pretty good. I might not write much 'cause when I'm playin' Tony Hawk (for Nintendo 64 right now), I have to have both my hands together while workin' tha controls, so it's hard to play it. Anyway, pretty good hook and not bad for a start. Feelin' it. My Rating: 3.9
03. "Showtime"
Feelin' one of Weezy's latest jointz by tha same name. Will this be as good or have good competition wit tha Weezy joint? Lemme find out! >>> I didn't know you was from H-Town. I thought you was from Louisiana. Definitely feelin' tha rhymes on this joint, and tha hook iz pretty good. Yeah I know I feel Weezy's better, but this iz good. "I remember all tha old dayz when I was always picked last." This iz a true quote to me, and sadly still iz. When it comes to ANYTHING related to sports, I'm ALWAYS picked last no matter what; it pisses me tha fuck off! My Rating: 4.0
04. "I Can't Stop" Feat. TIG
First collabo. Let's hear this joint. >>> Decent beat, but not catchin' onto me that much as tha previous 2 jointz. My Rating: 3.6
05. "What That Do"
… >>> Sounds a lil' better. Decent start. Right as soon as tha 1st verse ended, I liked that "what-what-wha-wha-what-wha-what!" Sounds jammin', especially all tha times he says "what that do." My Rating: 3.8
06. "Baller Baby"
ller? Shouldn't it be more like lla? Hope it sounds good either way… >>> Yeah I pretty much like this tha same as No. 5; good hook and great rhymes. Beat iz also pretty good. I think I like this one better than No. 5. My Rating: 3.9
07. "Be Like Ya'll" Feat. B-3
Somethin' tells me I'm gonna really like this one for some reason… >>> Not what I expected… Sounds aight to me, but not what I anticipated. Tha rhymes are soundin' great. I just think some of these beatz need to be a lot hotter/better. My Rating: 3.6
08. "Interlude"
I'm tired as fuck… But I'm surviving, lol. >>> Wasn't really feelin' it. Tha idea of tryna be funny ain't workin' for me for some reason… My Rating: N/A
09. "5th Of Lick" Feat. Trally Boy & TIG
Iz this gon be a joint for tha ladies? >>> I like tha beat. It reminds me of one of those "squeeze toys" you buy for your dog/cat/mouse, lmao. Yeah throughout tha mixtape I've been feelin' tha rhymes all tha time. Hook iz pretty good too. My Rating: 4.2
½time: Nothin' mind-blowing, but pretty decent so far. Nothing has been disappointing as well.
10. "Can't Knock Tha Hustle"
A Jay-Z title originally. How will you do wit tha title? >>> A motivating song. Of course good lyrics, but I was almost about to say this has no interest in me. However, I seem to be gainin' interest by slowly hearin' tha rest of it. My Rating: 3.7
11. "Chillin' In Da Lot" Feat. Concept & Black Sheep
This better be good/somethin' I REALLY like 'cause of tha title! >>> Ya know I like tha hook. Definitely sounds more H-Town (or should I say "H-Than") style. Had a good feel to it. My Rating: 3.8
12. "Separate Ways" Feat. eSOULreal & Joi
You spelled "separate" wrong on tha tracklisting, lol. Anyway, I dunno what to expect wit this one… >>>> Smooth joint. Not my style, but soundin' good on Sleepy's handz (including tha girl in that). My Rating: 3.1
Break: 12:13 AM. Aight I can't stay up. I gotta get myself to catch some ZzzzzzZzzzz's. I'll finish this off tomorrow. >>> Aight I'm back, and it's 6:42 AM. I'm up so early 'cause I got college starting at 8:00 AM.
13. "Party Out" Feat. Big Fav
Looks good, so let's see how good it iz. >>> Beat iz cool so far. Good hook, and good 1st verse. Good 2nd verse too. This joint better than most of these jointz on here. This was jammin' all tha way through 'cause even tha 3rd verse was good. Great continuation start to this CD. What was wit tha 10 second silence at tha end? My Rating: 4.3
14. "Pop That" Feat. Concept
Another party anthem back 2 back? Lookin' forward to hearing! >>> Expected a "pop that pussy" type of song, but it looks like it's more on tha gangsta side of thangz wit a "pop that AK" type of song. I'm definitely feelin' it tho. Tha beat iz cool, especially during tha hook, but I thought that 2nd verse bored me for some reason. I dunno what exactly it was… I guess it was just tha continuous flowin' or somethin'. My Rating: 4.0
15. "Already"
Okay… what'll come out of this joint…? >>> Tha beat iz better so far on tha intro. Feelin' tha hook, and feelin' tha beat more! Definitely a jam right here. This CD seems to be pretty consistant eva since I went to sleep/woke up. Yeah Sleepy did his thang on here. Looks like this my favorite joint (unexpectically too) on this CD! Str8 up jammin' wit tha flow, lyrics, and everything about this. My Rating: 4.5
16. "It's Goin' Down Pt. 2" Feat. TIG
I know this whole CD has been original. I'm just hoping it's not wit tha Yung Joc/Nitti beat in tha background. I'm sure it ain't… And it's No. 16, so it must be good! >>> It's an original beat, and pretty decent so far. Not bad. "Take a brick to tha face, it's hard to swallow." Quoted that line 'cause it was good. It's still jammin' right here. My Rating: 3.9
17. "What Ever Happened" Feat. Joi
I expect a slow joint… >>> Yeah this kinda slow for me, but tha beat iz pretty good and I'm feelin' Joi on tha hook. I didn't expect this to be this good, but it was. Good job Sleepy & Joi. My Rating: 3.7
18. "Easier"
I think tha slowness iz gonna continue for this last joint. Let's see if I'm right. >>> Slow start, real lyrics, real life story, but I'm feelin' it. Tha hook iz aight, but like I said, I'm feelin' this song wit tha real life lyrics for some reason… I like tha "fuck you, it's just that easy!"'s. Yeah it ain't that easy to say "fuck you" to someone in my case, but you betta believe I do say it a lot behind someone's back. My Rating: 3.6
Overall: End Time: 2.15.2008 @ 7:18 AM. Not bad for this CD. Tha beginning was a lil' average and then it got a lil' better towards tha end.

Not just "2nd coming", but it's also tha "2nd joint" on tha CD, lol. How'z this gon start off? >>> Sounds more on tha underground side of thangz. That's cool.

I might not write much 'cause when I'm playin' Tony Hawk (for Nintendo 64 right now), I have to have both my hands together while workin' tha controls, so it's hard to play it. Anyway, pretty good hook and not bad for a start. Feelin' it. My Rating: 3.9
03. "Showtime"
Feelin' one of Weezy's latest jointz by tha same name. Will this be as good or have good competition wit tha Weezy joint? Lemme find out! >>> I didn't know you was from H-Town. I thought you was from Louisiana. Definitely feelin' tha rhymes on this joint, and tha hook iz pretty good. Yeah I know I feel Weezy's better, but this iz good. "I remember all tha old dayz when I was always picked last." This iz a true quote to me, and sadly still iz. When it comes to ANYTHING related to sports, I'm ALWAYS picked last no matter what; it pisses me tha fuck off! My Rating: 4.0
04. "I Can't Stop" Feat. TIG
First collabo. Let's hear this joint. >>> Decent beat, but not catchin' onto me that much as tha previous 2 jointz. My Rating: 3.6
05. "What That Do"
… >>> Sounds a lil' better. Decent start. Right as soon as tha 1st verse ended, I liked that "what-what-wha-wha-what-wha-what!" Sounds jammin', especially all tha times he says "what that do." My Rating: 3.8
06. "Baller Baby"
ller? Shouldn't it be more like lla? Hope it sounds good either way… >>> Yeah I pretty much like this tha same as No. 5; good hook and great rhymes. Beat iz also pretty good. I think I like this one better than No. 5. My Rating: 3.9
07. "Be Like Ya'll" Feat. B-3
Somethin' tells me I'm gonna really like this one for some reason… >>> Not what I expected… Sounds aight to me, but not what I anticipated. Tha rhymes are soundin' great. I just think some of these beatz need to be a lot hotter/better. My Rating: 3.6
08. "Interlude"
I'm tired as fuck… But I'm surviving, lol. >>> Wasn't really feelin' it. Tha idea of tryna be funny ain't workin' for me for some reason… My Rating: N/A
09. "5th Of Lick" Feat. Trally Boy & TIG
Iz this gon be a joint for tha ladies? >>> I like tha beat. It reminds me of one of those "squeeze toys" you buy for your dog/cat/mouse, lmao. Yeah throughout tha mixtape I've been feelin' tha rhymes all tha time. Hook iz pretty good too. My Rating: 4.2
½time: Nothin' mind-blowing, but pretty decent so far. Nothing has been disappointing as well.
10. "Can't Knock Tha Hustle"
A Jay-Z title originally. How will you do wit tha title? >>> A motivating song. Of course good lyrics, but I was almost about to say this has no interest in me. However, I seem to be gainin' interest by slowly hearin' tha rest of it. My Rating: 3.7
11. "Chillin' In Da Lot" Feat. Concept & Black Sheep
This better be good/somethin' I REALLY like 'cause of tha title! >>> Ya know I like tha hook. Definitely sounds more H-Town (or should I say "H-Than") style. Had a good feel to it. My Rating: 3.8
12. "Separate Ways" Feat. eSOULreal & Joi
You spelled "separate" wrong on tha tracklisting, lol. Anyway, I dunno what to expect wit this one… >>>> Smooth joint. Not my style, but soundin' good on Sleepy's handz (including tha girl in that). My Rating: 3.1
Break: 12:13 AM. Aight I can't stay up. I gotta get myself to catch some ZzzzzzZzzzz's. I'll finish this off tomorrow. >>> Aight I'm back, and it's 6:42 AM. I'm up so early 'cause I got college starting at 8:00 AM.
13. "Party Out" Feat. Big Fav
Looks good, so let's see how good it iz. >>> Beat iz cool so far. Good hook, and good 1st verse. Good 2nd verse too. This joint better than most of these jointz on here. This was jammin' all tha way through 'cause even tha 3rd verse was good. Great continuation start to this CD. What was wit tha 10 second silence at tha end? My Rating: 4.3
14. "Pop That" Feat. Concept
Another party anthem back 2 back? Lookin' forward to hearing! >>> Expected a "pop that pussy" type of song, but it looks like it's more on tha gangsta side of thangz wit a "pop that AK" type of song. I'm definitely feelin' it tho. Tha beat iz cool, especially during tha hook, but I thought that 2nd verse bored me for some reason. I dunno what exactly it was… I guess it was just tha continuous flowin' or somethin'. My Rating: 4.0
15. "Already"
Okay… what'll come out of this joint…? >>> Tha beat iz better so far on tha intro. Feelin' tha hook, and feelin' tha beat more! Definitely a jam right here. This CD seems to be pretty consistant eva since I went to sleep/woke up. Yeah Sleepy did his thang on here. Looks like this my favorite joint (unexpectically too) on this CD! Str8 up jammin' wit tha flow, lyrics, and everything about this. My Rating: 4.5
16. "It's Goin' Down Pt. 2" Feat. TIG
I know this whole CD has been original. I'm just hoping it's not wit tha Yung Joc/Nitti beat in tha background. I'm sure it ain't… And it's No. 16, so it must be good! >>> It's an original beat, and pretty decent so far. Not bad. "Take a brick to tha face, it's hard to swallow." Quoted that line 'cause it was good. It's still jammin' right here. My Rating: 3.9
17. "What Ever Happened" Feat. Joi
I expect a slow joint… >>> Yeah this kinda slow for me, but tha beat iz pretty good and I'm feelin' Joi on tha hook. I didn't expect this to be this good, but it was. Good job Sleepy & Joi. My Rating: 3.7
18. "Easier"
I think tha slowness iz gonna continue for this last joint. Let's see if I'm right. >>> Slow start, real lyrics, real life story, but I'm feelin' it. Tha hook iz aight, but like I said, I'm feelin' this song wit tha real life lyrics for some reason… I like tha "fuck you, it's just that easy!"'s. Yeah it ain't that easy to say "fuck you" to someone in my case, but you betta believe I do say it a lot behind someone's back. My Rating: 3.6
Overall: End Time: 2.15.2008 @ 7:18 AM. Not bad for this CD. Tha beginning was a lil' average and then it got a lil' better towards tha end.
