Review #1,794: Shizz Dollah "N.I.K.E., Vol. 1 (Nigga I Kill Everything) (Hosted by DJ PK1)"

Reviewed on 1.21.2019 (Review #1,794)


Time fa mo Shizz Dollah! Here goes my review fa his 2013 CD (I forgot to mention, tha previous CD I just reviewed was also from 2013), N.I.K.E., Vol. 1 (Nigga I Kill Everything) (Hosted by DJ PK1), courtesy of Money Cirkle Entertainment & The Non-Fiction Community… Start Time: 8:47 PM | End Time: 9:12 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!

© 2019 CD Review (Review #1,794) reviewed on 1.21.2019 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “Nigga I Kill Everything”
>>> DJ PK1 on tha hosting, here… Nice lil’ intro and now, a darker-soundin’ beat wit your consistent rhymes; nice… My Rating: 4.1


02. “Work 4 Me”
You on da beat… >>> Sounds like a familiar-soundin’ bounce vibe or somethin’; good lil’ hook from you… Sounds like you livin’ a good life wit how you comin’ through on tha verses; nice vibe… My Rating: 4.2


03. “Pills & Cocaine” feat. 1Hitta, Lil’ One The Champ & Spitta
Keepin’ your beats goin’… >>> Sounds like a familiar-soundin’ beat (like Mystikal “Here I Go” or somethin’); sounds good wit you on tha 1st verse… Tha hook sounds like a good mixin’ blend, to go wit tha mixin’ of this mixtape… Hearin’ Lil’ One on tha 2nd verse and it sounds good/consistent; nice job… Spit on tha 3rd verse, luvin’ tha “purp,” of course! Great job collabin’ wit tha Dollah & vice versa! My Rating: 3.8


04. “Do This Fo Real”
Mo original productions… >>> Sounds like a good/catchy lil’ hook wit how you repeat tha title; nice… Rhymes sound catchy fa a club vibe; not bad, overall… Kinda seems like it neva ends, for havin’ no features on this; still decent, regardless… My Rating: 3.7


05. “Ching Ching” feat. Lil’ One (Bad Azz Ent.)
D. Jackson doin’ this beat… >>> Sounds like a catchy-soundin’ hook, despite me not goin’ for tha money songs… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it’s a regular-soundin’ verse; not bad… Couldn’t put tha hook’s voice wit this bein’ this Lil’ One but I guess it iz… Barely have heard this Lil’ One but now, there’s more chances… Hearin’ him on tha 2nd verse and it ain’t bad; it passes tha test… My Rating: 3.6


06. “Paranoid”
Young Hits beat…! >>> Gotta luv “flyin’ down Airline;” I miss bein’ in BR! Good lil’ hook but it’s all about confidence! Gotta avoid tha paranoia! Hearin’ what you got ta say on tha verses and it sounds like you’re tryna escape, as much as you can… Good state of mind but look at where it brought you (death)… Good, catchy rhymes on tha 2nd verse, too; you know what it iz… My Rating: 3.7


07. “Gucci” feat. Lil’ One (Bad Azz Ent.)
D. Jackson beat! >>> A decent beat wit a decent/“good” hook, here… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it sounds like a random, regular-soundin’ undaground song fa da Boot, here… Nice job wit what Lil’ One bringin’ ta dis track; like this betta than tha previous one… My Rating: 3.7


½time: Most of this CD’s slightly above-average, fa me; a 3.8-rated CD, currently. Keep up tha original-produced tracks, holdin’ it down…!


08. “Fucked Up” feat. Lil’ One (Bad Azz Ent.) & Foxx
$hizz, you on da beat, once again! >>> Good beat you bringin’ to da table, here; good 1st verse, too… Sounds good wit Lil’ One on tha 2nd verse, here, strictly luvin’ tha buzz life! “Let’s get retawded-tawded;” fa’real! Gotta luv Foxx’s buzzed contributions on tha 3rd verse, of course; unstoppable Milliyone!! My Rating: 4.2


09. “One Time”
No producer listed…? Hmm… >>> Nothin’ too-too bad, so far; a lil’ laidback, here… Hearin’ what you got goin’ on and it sounds like you’re tryna rap faster than what tha beat can handle… Tha pre-hook sounds a lil’ too simple wit tha title part repeatin’… Tha hook ain’t too bad; like how you ready fa this “time,” here… My Rating: 3.7


10. “Bitches Love Me”
>>> Okay, no producer listed ‘cause you goin’ tha Wayne route, wit tha “Love Me” rendition, here… Too fast wit tha rappin’; sounds too random, ta me… Does it really need ta be 4:09? Way too long; shoulda cut this jacked-beat track in half! My Rating: 1.5


11. “Joady” feat. Lil’ One (Bad Azz Ent.) & Foxx
Back to da original productions from you, here… >>> Sounds more anticipatin’ than tha previous track! You sound like you got tha BR vibe on lock, throughout tha 1st verse; good job… Tha hook sounds good/catchy; can’t deny it, I guess? Lil’ One enjoyin’ all this “jumpin’ up & down” shit, via tha 2nd verse; good job… Gotta save tha best fa last (Foxx)! Foxx-A-Mill comin’ through on tha 3rd verse, here, strictly holdin’ it down wit his aggression at all times! My Rating: 4.0


12. “What Up With That”
Young Hits on this production…! >>> Good lil’ beat; when you talk about tha “Nolia Clap,” on tha hook, it reminds me that this Hitz production has a lil’ bit of an N.O. vibe to it, more than a BR one! Hearin’ what you got ta spit and it sounds like it blends good wit this N.O. street vibe (beat), vs. your BR club vibe (rhymes); nice! My Rating: 3.8


13. “Questionaire”
>>> Sounds like a lil’ bit of an upbeat vibe fa you, here; good lil’ hook… Hearin’ what you got goin’ on throughout tha rappin’ and it sounds like you focused. Sounds like a few mainstream references, here, from “Nicki,” to Drake, to “50;” umm… Overall, just a regular-soundin’ track fa me; nothin’ too special but not bad… My Rating: 3.5


14. “Freaks” feat. Doe
>>> Takin’ on this “Freaks”; here we go… Sounds like you’re excited ta rap but sometimes, it sounds like you got dat Lil’ Wayne flow to ya… Doe got some catchy rhymes comin’ outta tha 2nd verse; pretty nice, but nicer if it was an original beat… My Rating: 2.8


15. “Speed Dial” feat. Dog Da Cutthroata & Foxx
>>> Beginning with you tryna slow it down doesn’t sound like it gon be fa me… Hook ehh; it’s just a slow jam, ta me… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it—auto-tune? Neva mind… Damn, Dog, too? Fa’get his verse…! Hope not Foxx… Save a 1.0 from happenin’, F-O-XX…! Looks like he did! No gay voice, here, but this’ll prolly be tha worst-rated track… Lol @ “I put her # under ‘Wet Wet;’ I’ono her name;” good goin’, Foxx! Glad Foxx got lots of good powers ta turn around any environment! My Rating: 1.2


Overall: Seems like most of your CDs average around tha same scores & shit… I thought this one had it, in tha beginning, with all tha original production. Then again, you took it a lil’ too far wit tha mainstream/slower vibes & kinda fucked up your ratings. Either way, there’s one more review I gotta do of yours, most-likely 2morrow; how will you do?

© 2019 CD Review (Review #1,793) reviewed on 1.21.2019 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “Intro”
>>> Sounds like you’re slowly dippin’ into a betta vibe than tha A.D.I.D.A.S. vibe, from 2012… Likin’ all tha “off” shit, on tha hook; glad you got some addictive hooks! Hearin’ you rap and it’s pretty nice; glad you got all these “raps!” My Rating: 4.2


02. “Bossed Up”
>>> A slower vibe, here, but keepin’ it G… Hearin’ you rap and it sounds like you continuin’ tha nice rhymes, once again; good shit. I like how you said, “Polo socks; my 4-4 cocked;” dope shit! Hearin’ tha hook and it’s good; nothin’ special-special but nothin’ terrible… My Rating: 3.7


03. “Feel Good”
>>> Got D. Jackson on this beat, here; let’s see how y’all combine together… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s good, wit this Jacksontized beat; not bad… Hearin’ what you got wit tha rhymes and yeah, “Same clothes fa two dayz;” it’s true! I would say, sometimes, close to a week if you don’t have a job and are on a non-stop grind… Sounds like you picked up tha pace wit tha flow… I’ono, not err-body gotta rap fast…! My Rating: 3.5


04. “Rider”
>>> Anotha D. Jackson beat; glad y’all have chemistry…! Glad you have “a closet fulla music,” too; definitely a plus! Hearin’ tha hook and it’s a lil’ catchier than tha previous hook. Hearin’ you rap and it ain’t too bad, here. Just a regular-soundin’ track ta me, with nothin’ special or nothin’ bad… My Rating: 3.6


05. “Beef Shit” feat. Rambeezy
>>> R.I.P. y’all… Young Hits doin’ this beat; bet it gon be a top-rated one…! Hook ain’t too bad; I expected a lil’ mo energy wit this Hits beat & y’all… What’s tha deal wit tha “‘09” shit? Nothin’ great about those ‘Nu$$ie Dead’ times… Hearin’ you rap and it sounds catchy; you know what you doin’…! Glad you luv tha “Polo;” that’s why you had it “2 The Flo,” back in “’09,” like you said! I like how Rambeezy got a good representation wit tha collab, here; props to his gangsta shit! Kinda likin’ how he referenced “Bubba Sparxxx” and his “Ugly” track, from ’01; random but nice… My Rating: 4.2


06. “Noticed You” feat. Young Trayne
>>> Sounds like a good, catchy, slower vibe, on tha hook; props ta D, again, on anotha beat! Hearin’ you rap your verse on this and, as always, it sounds like you continuously able ta hold it down…! Wit Trayne on tha 2nd verse, he sounds great ta hear, of course; great job wit y’all “Oak”-asses, ya dig? My Rating: 3.8


07. “Girlfriend”
>>> Goin’ wit tha online beats or whatevz…? Hearin’ you rap and it sounds like you tryna get along wit this online track… I’ono, I wouldn’t be cool wit it, lol… Kinda likin’ tha hook and how you have this “get down” shit on lock, as far as catchiness… Even tho these kinda tracks don’t sound tha best ta me, I’ll admit: there’s a decent amount of catchiness, here… My Rating: 3.4


½time: Not too bad, so far; I thank you got this, as far as this P.O.L.O. shit goes… A 3.8-rated CD, currently; let’s see what’s next…


08. “Freestyle”
>>> Decent rhymes, wit a random beat ta “freestyle” off of… Once it’s time to “freestyle,” you already know how to adjust yourself…! My Rating: 3.9


09. “Get At U”
>>> Sounds like a decent, catchy lil’ hook/beat… Well, of course, it sounds betta when you start repeatin’, “I’m gon get at u (I’m gon get at u)…;” nice! Like what you’re bringin’ to tha verses, here, strictly comin’ from tha “goon school,” of course! Kinda long fa a track but it ain’t too bad, overall… My Rating: 3.9


10. “No Good”
>>> Anotha okay/not-tha-craziest-about-type of song… Tha hook a lil’ catchy and tha beat kinda laidback, here; nothin’ too-too special but let’s see what else we got goin’ on… Hearin’ you rap and I’m likin’ your rhymes, with tha “Room Raiders” and all that; “good” rhymes fa a relationship song… Anotha one a lil’ long—actually, just about tha same length as tha previous track… My Rating: 3.7


11. “Product Of My Environment”
>>> Just a random beat wit a random voice bein’ sampled; nothin’ special fa me… Anotha 4:00+ track; okay rhymes and a decent hook… Nothin’ too catchy, here; nothin’ much fa me ta say… My Rating: 3.1


12. “Stevie Wonder” feat. Doe
>>> Anotha song referrin’ ta “Stevie Wonder”; this boring and mainstream-soundin’, tho… Not really inta tha flow/rappin’ on this one, as well; get away from tha mainstream!! Same thang wit Doe; this ain’t fa y’all! What else should I say…? My Rating: 1.3


13. “High Freestyle” feat. Lil’ Mop
>>> Here we go wit mo online beats… Don’t thank I’ll catch on to tha rhymes/flow, since it sounds like bullshit mainstream music, like tha last track… Great wit tha “stupid high” part, but on this beat? Naw, Mop… Even tha rappin’ can have potential to be good, but y’all shoulda had an original Baton Rouge beat on this one! You sound like you’re tryna have fun wit your rappin’ but fa’real, y’all shoulda picked a different beat ta rap on… My Rating: 2.5


14. “Spend The Night”
>>> Anotha random beat wit anotha relationship-style track… Let’s see how much feedback I’ll leave… Semi-fast rappin’; attemptin’ to be catchy but it ain’t workin’, here… Kinda bored wit tha “pocket fulla money” shit…; next…! My Rating: 1.7


15. “Bet That Up” feat. Rambeezy
>>> Sounds like there’s betta effort in this intro, here, wit tha energy! “Bet that up!” Enjoyin’ tha hook and what y’all got goin’ on, here… Good shit from Beezy, comin’ through fa you, here; gangsta at its finest…! A decent lil’ contribution from you, here; likin’ Beezy betta but it’s still betta than tha previous tracks…! My Rating: 3.8


Overall: A lil’ boring/watered-down toward tha 2nd ½ but it looked like it started off to be above-average… Got two mo CDs ta review of yours & I should be able to get to ‘em sooner or later…

I’m tryin’ to get some current Louisiana CD reviewz outta tha way… A few of these next ones came from tha near-end of last year and I just got them last month… Here goes my review for A.R. Lit Wavy, released on Str8 Up Entertainment & In Your Earhole Productions… Start Time: 8:59 AM | End Time: 9:40 AM

Link To CD: N/A


01. “Lit Wavy”
A C Dot James production, here… >>> Can tell exactly that this came from that night I was at tha Hookah Lounge, meetin’ up wit A.R.; definitely nice! Gotta love tha darker-soundin’ beat and this “lit”-soundin’ hook, ya dig? Also, comin’ through wit tha nice rhymes in tha 1st verse! And, keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here, doin’ ya thang, as always! My Rating: 4.5


02. “Go Public”
D. Jackson doin’ tha beat; glad he still around! >>> Sounds good, here; feelin’ how this sounds in tha beat… Hearin’ how you comin’ through on tha 1st verse and it’s cool; nothin’ ta bitch about, of course… Tha hook sounds nice; gotta not “give a fuck how they feel,” ya dig? True…! Tha 2nd verse’s pretty nice; definitely lovin’ tha consistency! You have consistency in your rhymes, ya dig? Unstoppable! My Rating: 4.3


03. “Woah”
B Easy on this beat… >>> Still sounds unique to me, with how this sounds and how you come through on tha 1st verse wit these rhymes… And, nice wit tha hook and how tha rest of this sounds… Only 31 seconds remaining and you still keepin’ tha rhymes goin’! My Rating: 4.0


04. “That’s On Ya Body”
D. Jackson hookin’ “ya” up wit anotha one; lookin’ forward ta hear…! I have a feelin’ it gon be hyped-up? >>> Yeah, this sounds like a nice lil’ vibe; definitely diggin’ it! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and you holdin’ it down, here; good shit! Sounds like you love your life; I love mines, too, except tha drama at my job!! Hearin’ tha hook and it’s pretty nice, too; you got this on lock, here! Tha 2nd verse’s pretty nice, as well! You even made a reference to “Oochie Wally”, too; “that’s” A.R. for “ya!” My Rating: 4.3


05. “Ain’t My Business”
LTK on tha beat… >>> Sounds nice wit this beat; you got tha interestin’ production on lock, here! See, I call this ‘Baton Rouge music,’ regardless! It don’t have to be about poppin’ pillz; it just has to have that sound to it! Nice job wit how you comin’ through on tha hook, here; you know what you doin’! Tha 1st verse’s pretty nice and what you comin’ through with! Always ‘bout dat consistency! Love how I looked back on my blog to see how active you were throughout tha years… Every single year since 2007, you ain’t stop!! I checked somethin’ out of yours each year since 2008! 2016, I ain’t have anything but this CD’s from 2016, so that counts! My Rating: 4.2


06. “Fifty-Thousand”
Secret On Tha Track; wonder how long he can keep a “Secret,” lol? >>> Sounds like a good way to celebrate tha celebrity status? “My level fifty-thousand;” definitely! A smooth, more-laidback beat, here, but still cool… Definitely feelin’ tha 1st verse wit tha “64 Nintendo” shit, when it comes to tha “ol’ skool;” good shit! Definitely feelin’ what you bringin’ to tha table; gotta love tha rhymes! I have to say, there were times where I thought you were just decent and some tracks were ehh/not for me. However, I’m six tracks in and even on this slower shit, I still feel impressed to where it’s definitely poppin’, ya dig? My Rating: 4.1


½time: Definitely impressed, prolly more than tha past! A 4.2-rated CD for tha ½time; that’s dope!! Keep up tha consistent rhymes and err-thang you bringin’ to tha table, here!! Lemme look back at all tha previous ½times you had with me:

Out The Gate Pt. 2, back on 8.15.2009: 3.5
Out The Gate, back on 9.07.2010: 4.0
Tree-House (The Mixtape), back on 3.25.2011: 3.9
A+B+C = Da Formula (Hosted by DJ Chilly Chill), back on 6.05.2011: 4.4

I expected Da Formula one to be tha best but yeah, for a solo project, 4.2’s awesome!


07. “Do You & Good Luck”
Anotha beat from D, here! >>> Sounds good; feelin’ how you deliverin’ these rhymes on tha 1st verse! It’s almost like there’s infinity life in you, here! YB’s Don’t Die Wondering may’ve been tha 1st hard copy CD I got while I was in Louisiana, but your CD’s tha 1st one I got that I neva heard! Glad I paid you $5.00 for it; had to have it and you had to have my money, ya dig? Good hook, too; definitely feelin’ tha hype! Love how you comin’ through on tha 2nd verse, here; consistent shit, here! “Light shinin’ bright, techno;” dope shit! My Rating: 4.4


08. “Flex Flow”
D. Jackson on this one, too! >>> An interestin’ slow track, here; definitely feelin’ tha hook! Love how you deliverin’ tha 1st verse; you sound hiiiiiiiiigh or drunnnnnnnnnnnk here!! Love it!!! Now, tha regular voice of you and it sounds dope, too, wit what ya bringin’… Tha 2nd verse’s pretty nice, too; good shit wit what you continuin’ to bring! My Rating: 4.5


09. “Redicoulus”
Interestin’ spellin’, here, with Secret On Tha Track on tha beat… >>> Sounds nice wit this laidback vibe, too; good hook, bro… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds nice wit how you comin’ through wit this night out… Keepin’ it movin’ with tha 2nd verse, too, keepin’ it movin’ wit this bitch… My Rating: 3.7


10. “Super Thugg’n”
D. Jackson doin’ this one, too; what can I expect? >>> Really smooth start, here; let’s see what’s good… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it’s anotha one dedicated to tha ladies… I’ono why, but I almost thought this was gon sound like a struggle from bein’ a young’n or somethin’… Tha hook ain’t too bad, here, as you’re continuin’ ta make this happen… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s pretty nice, too; gotta respect it! I love how this sounds like it can have my back from my anxiety/bad vibes from my job! My Rating: 3.8


11. “Wannh”
Ooh @ tha title, produced by D. Jackson! >>> Sounds nice fa tha rhymes on tha 1st verse and how this beat sounds… Oh, a mix-up on tha CD, here? Tha back cover says that “Wannh”’s #08 & “Flex Flow”’s #11? This one sounds like that “Wannh”! Glad I caught that! I was gonna say, I almost thought when I heard #08, I was waitin’ for tha “wannh!” And yeah, I believe you performed this, too; I know you love tha “wannh!” When I do that to my co-workers, I wonder what they think, lol? Tha 2nd verse’s pretty nice and consistent, too; gotta love ya! My Rating: 4.4


12. “Wake Up”
D. Jackson! >>> I was gonna say, I know I recognize this from my documentary I just put out/that night at tha club! And yeah, I remember this from tha Tree-House mixtape, right? I even remembered tha rating I gave it six years ago; crazy!! Not to mention, I reviewed it exactly six-years-and-one-day before I met you, lol! But yeah, tha review online still… My Current Rating: 4.1


13. “Who Got Shot?”
Endin’ with a D. Jackson beat, here… >>> Gotta luv that it reminds me of that night at tha club! Really feelin’ D’s beat, here! Tha 1st verse’s real tight wit your consistency, here! Tha hook’s definitely tha truth! Yeah, it sux wit what we’re dealin’ with! I had thought it had been quiet for a lil’ while and now, since I went down there, I heard about two shootings: King Joe, on April 4th & now, just Saturday, while I was goin’ through fuckin’ shit at my job, Zoe Realla, smh! I think I really lost it on Saturday; too much bullshit! But yeah, we all gotta be in this together! That’s why, I be comin’ down now to make peace wit err-body & know how valuable y’all are to me! With that bein’ said, keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ pretty nice, of course! My Rating: 4.4


Overall: I feel bad that I ain’t get to review this two dayz ago… I was goin’ through shit at my job, I stayed later & then, my visit to my homeboy who’s locked up was switched. So, I needed sleep and I neva got in tha mood to peep this out till today. Now, I have to say, you did tha damn thang throughout tha whole thang! Definitely worth my $5.00 in person, ya dig? Gotta love your consistent rhymes and how your vibes in tha tracks make tha production come to life! That’s right! Undaground life that we must always enjoy, ya dig?! Glad I been “rockin’ wit [you] since [you] were a teenager!” October 16, 2008, tha 1st time I heard ya! Beat Flippa’s Street Certified CD! You were 18 at tha time but we ain’t really connect till tha following year or so… Either way, now, I feel real glad I got to meet ya!!

Review #1,289: D. Jackson "Cake Life"

Reviewed on 5.29.2013 (Review #1,289)


Goin’ a lil’ backwards from tha previous review, but I gon review it now: Golden Music Group’s D. Jackson Cake Life! Start Time: 11:33 AM | End Time: 11:57 AM


Disclaimer: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion! I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care how lyrical you are, as long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings. If a song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6 rating, I pretty much really love it, as it’s considered mindblowin’ when I hear it! Any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> ” iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song; anything after I type “ >>> ” iz what I think of tha song while I’m listening to it. If you use tha word “swag” frequently, have auto-tune in your vocals, or talk about nothin’ but money and hoes 100,000x (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it! After I was robbed by 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!!

© 2013 CD Review (Review #1,289) reviewed on 5.29.2013 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “I’m Ready”
I have a feelin’ some repeat songs are gonna be on here, but whether or not I should’ve reviewed tha other CD first, I already reviewed it today, so I gon post my regular ratings: My Current Rating: 3.9


02. “Get Paper”
LOL! My Current Rating: 4.3


03. “Do Me Like Me”
Dammit, lol! My Current Rating: 3.7


04. “Can’t Pass Me Up” Feat. A.R.
*In a farting perspective* Ahh… >>> A Vybe beat for you, Jackson? Doesn’t really make sense, but this doesn’t sound bad ta rap on… Tha rappin’ ain’t bad, here; I like tha hook, although there’s some mainstream-soundin’ shit durin’ your verse… Let’s hear what A.R. has ta say… Sounds catchy; nice lil’ voice fa dis shit… Tha 3rd verse ain’t as mainstream as tha 1st verse fa me, so I can deal wit it… My Rating: 3.4


05. “Came Up” Feat. DatBoyDevin
His name’s all not-spaced like dat? >>> Not bad for a start; tha beat’s a lil’ interestin’… Let’s hear what this featured dude sounds like… Ehh, only decent for me. My Rating: 3.0


06. “Mill Ticket” Feat. SP & DatBoyDevin
>>> A lil’ too long for me to keep my interest… To me, this just anotha hustlin’-type song, like tha otha 1,000,000 of ‘em out there… My Rating: 2.3


07. “On My Grizzy”
>>> Sounds like some Soulja Boy/V.I.C.-type lyrics on tha hook, here, wit tha simple shit… Tha beat’s a lil’ cool, though simple, too… Wow @ tha first 53 seconds wit just tha title… Not really into tha beginning of tha 1st verse; sounds like you listen to way too much Kevin Gates! My Rating: 2.6


08. “Cake Life”
La-la-la-la-la… My Current Rating: 1.5


09. “Be Without You”
>>> Nice to hear an Aaliyah sample, but “Ice Cream Paint Job” producer on tha beat? Where are you? Either way, this ain’t nothin’ special for me… Sounds like anotha mixtape song wit it just bein’ okay/below-average. My Rating: 2.4


½time: So far, three stars iz what I rate this CD; seems like there’s not much to offer, here. I see how you didn’t produce all tha songs; no wonder why tha Temptations CD’s betta…


10. “Get It Today”
>>> A lil’ non-Southern for me wit tha beat you’re rappin’ on… It’s a lil’ on a laidback tip, but too boring for me when it comes to a producer I think has talent! My Rating: 2.2


11. “Alotta Respect” Feat. A.R.
Usually, “a lot” iz two words, but I’ll let tha compound wordness slide, here… >>> Okay, finally, one of your beats and it sounds nice! Now, this iz what I’m talkin’ about wit tha beats!! Also, nice job wit tha hook; drillin’ tha title in err-body’s asses!! I’m also feelin’ how you’re comin’ through on tha 1st verse; nice rhymes and how you’re comin’ through on here! A-Dot-R-Dot’s on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit some nice shit; can’t deny this… And, you on tha 3rd verse sounds catchy; I can hear tha entertainment in your voice wit tha “boy” parts. It sounds like you’re actually enjoyin’ tha song! My Rating: 4.3


12. “Grown Man” Feat. Lit Sig
>>> Okay, now, we’re back to tha okay/below-average shit. Tha beat ain’t really nothin’ for me, but some of tha rhymes you’re comin’ through wit are entertainin’, tha way you deliver ‘em… Nothin’ really goin’ on wit tha hook, either, especially wit there bein’ a sample on it, too. Let’s see what this Lit Sig dude ‘bout on tha 2nd verse… Once he said, “swag,” I feel like I can just cut tha verse; I know it’s on tha below-average level for me… My Rating: 2.6


13. “Shake Something”
>>> Nice beginning; finally, it sounds a lil’ different than usual tracks! Likin’ tha beat, and tha okay lyrics ain’t too bad for this track, either… Almost sounded like St. Louis/Nelly wit tha “rre”-soundin’ words durin’ tha 2nd verse! My Rating: 4.0


14. “Drop It Low” Feat. A.R. & PAP
>>> Nice beginnin’ from A.R. on tha 1st verse; feelin’ his consistency! Nice beat, includin’ a nice “ass” song! I might like this betta than tha previous song; keep this consistency up!! “Callin’ all ass to tha flo!” Tha 2nd verse sounds like tha PAP dude, since I don’t recognize tha voice… Nothin’ wack, here, and it’s on-topic, so I can feel it…, a lil’… And, as far as tha 3rd verse, it ain’t bad; we’ll consider you on a decent level, D… My Rating: 4.1


15. “Feel You”
>>> Yes, tha consistency continues wit this fast vibe!! A lil’ boring aside from tha beat, but it ain’t that bad for me… Still, why 4:47 on tha length? Not every song has to be long and not every CD has ta be 80 minutes long! Too long to keep my interest… Tha rhymes are really on an okay/somewhat-wack-for-others level, but I ain’t trippin’ too much on it… My Rating: 3.2


16. “Bubbling”
LOL! My Current Rating: 3.8


17. “We On”
L-to-tha-O-to-tha-L-to-tha-! My Current Rating: 2.8


18. “We Gone Be Alright”
Final song… >>> Just like tha title says, this iz “alright” for me; nothin’ special. It ain’t bad for an ending song… My Rating: 2.9


Overall: Wit all tha repeat songs, I thought I was definitely gon see tha Kevin Gates feature; good thing it ain’t here, lol! Turns out tha Temptations CD was better. Either way, like I said tha last time, take away tha mainstream topics, and focus on tha undaground of Louisiana! Do you live tha same life as others, or do you live a different life?

Review #1,288: D. Jackson "Temptations"

Reviewed on 5.29.2013 (Review #1,288)


Got anotha review, here. This one iz Golden Music Group’s D. Jackson Temptations! I have to say, as much as I wanted to get this review done with last night, I’m glad I waited ‘til today ‘cause today actually marks three years since I had my first (and currently, only) phone call wit D. Jackson, back on May 29, 2010. I knew I remembered somethin’ wit you and dat date, so I had to check, which I was correct! So, it’s only right dat I get into this now! Start Time: 10:51 AM | End Time: 11:16 AM


Disclaimer: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion! I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care how lyrical you are, as long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it!

© 2013 CD Review (Review #1,288) reviewed on 5.29.2013 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “Intro To Temptations”
>>> You on tha intro… Also, rappin’ involved? Didn’t know you rapped, but here’s a lil’ somethin’… Nice lil’ rhymes, but betta beat! Some of it sounds a lil’ mainstream, but it’s listenable… I even can deal wit tha singin’, too! My Rating: 4.3


02. “I’m Ready”
Not sure who tha artists are (unless, it’s all you?), but here goes nothin’… >>> Sound a lil’ like A.R., only wit a different voice, hence you guys bein’, like, tha same age. This ain’t bad, and it’s listenable, but The Diplomats/Cam’ron and them did it betta wit this sample over 10 years ago! Tha rhymes are good, too; nice lil’ song, overall! My Rating: 3.9


03. “Conquer”
>>> Nice beginning, and it transitioned into a nice beat! A lil’ Chief Keef-soundin’ wit tha voice (e.g., tha “uh”-soundin’ words), but it ain’t bad for this underground, Baton Rouge sound… Almost sounds like a different dude on tha 2nd verse; hope you don’t have unsourced people ‘cause dat wouldn’t be fair! My Rating: 4.0


04. “My City” Feat. Kevin Gates & A.R.
Speakin’ of tha ’10, here’s one from dat year! My Current Rating: 4.6


05. “Temptations”
A title track… >>> Ehh, a lil’ mainstream wit tha way you’re deliverin’ tha words. I wouldn’t pay attention to this if I had no clue who it was ‘cause of its mainstream sound, so I’ll pass on this one. For your perspective on tha track, it ain’t bad… My Rating: 2.9


06. “Get Paper”
>>> I like tha vibe on tha beat, here; sounds like anotha version of “Wanna Bite Chu”—thought I’d see dat on here? Maybe, it’s on tha previous CD? Jammin’ delivery on this beat, too; feelin’ what you’re spittin’! Tha hook ain’t bad, though I hate money songs, these dayz, after I got robbed by a BR dude! My Rating: 4.3


07. “I’m Bubbling”
>>> A lil’ slower than tha previous track’s beat, but it sounds good wit your delivery, once again; catchy lyrics and sound, once again! Tha hook’s a lil’ catchy; not bad for a track, overall… Seems like a lil’ long for a song wit no features, but whateva… My Rating: 3.8


08. “Believe Dat”
Accordin’ to tha back cover, this one’s not produced by you. >>> A lil’ catchy. Reminds me of Young Ca$h’s 2006 single of tha same name. Hearin’ tha 1st verse, and although some of this iz entertainin’, it sounds a lot like a Lil’ Wayne-rapped verse that would be considered ‘today’s generation wack.’ My Rating: 3.5


½time: So far, it seems like this iz a nice CD of yours; I thought it was a compilation, but it’s mainly you and your beats. For tha CD rating currently, it’s at a 3.9; not bad – that’s good!


09. “Again & Again”
>>> Tha beat’s decent, and tha song’s okay; tha hook’s a lil’ catchy, too. I’m feelin’ your “weed” and “smoke in tha air” parts… My Rating: 3.4


10. “BooKoo Money”
LOL @ tha spellin’ of “buku;” I’ve always felt that that was tha non-Louisiana spellin’ of it. I remember when Yung Joc tried to jack “buku” and turn it into “BooKoo,” smh! >>> Wow, I forgot there was “money” in tha title ‘cause I was payin’ attention to tha stupid “BooKoo.” As much as this iz long, this iz so not for me wit this hook! This iz an example of why tha mainstream rap scene’s so fucked up! My Rating: 1.6


11. “Like Me”
>>> Beat sounds nice, here; almost sounds like A.R. in tha beginning? I swear, sometimes, tha both of y’all have a similar sound, in wayz. Rhymes ain’t bad, either… My Rating: 3.7


12. “Cake Life”
I just found an older CD of yours on your DatPiff profile wit this title in it. I was gonna review dat one first, but I’ll do this CD first. I’m sure this song’s also on there, but lemme get my first listen at it now… >>> Why are tha money songs so long? They should be no more than 3:00 in length—or wait, no money songs at all! Should just be secretly thrown into a rhyme, like masturbation or somethin’! Anyway, this sounds too boring for me, between tha dry beat and rhymes… My Rating: 1.5


13. “Day & Night” Feat. A.R.
Problem Child Entertainment! >>> Sounds like an okay/above-average song, so far, as far as tha hook… I hear A.R. on tha 1st verse and good thing he’s listed ‘cause I would’ve been afraid it was Lil’ Mista or someone’s overrated-ass on tha track. Then again, A.R. doesn’t have all that cocky shit dat Mista spits, so it levels out to some listenable shit without feelin’ shitty about yourself, for not meeting Mista’s standards. And A.R., you have some catchy rhymes, here; nice and consistent! Here you are on tha 2nd verse, D, and wow, “licking me while I roll up tha weed”? Interestin’, especially bein’ your age and someone “licking” on you. I have yet to experience dat! I liked A.R.’s verse betta than yours, but it ain’t that bad of a song, overall; a lil’ mainstream wit some of tha rhymes, though… My Rating: 3.6


14. “On My Shit”
>>> An okay vibe, but way too mainstream wit tha lyrics for me. What will tha world be like without “money” and “bitches”? Tha answer: Some of tha shit I rap about, such as my great-grandma’s house gettin’ off tha land! Check out tha link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4n9fKgBFr_g My Rating: 2.4


15. “Leaking”
>>> Feelin’ tha beat start; let’s see how it progresses, and I hope it doesn’t lose its vibe wit dumb mainstream lyrics… Tha hook sounds a lil’ catchy… Hearin’ some “female” rhymes, here, and it sounds like a single or somethin’. That beat’s real catchy wit tha sounds; it’s almost like you can’t get away from it! My Rating: 3.7


16. “They Lovin’ It”
Anotha track that’s not produced by you… >>> Doesn’t sound like you “on some other shit,” here; to me, it sounds like every other mainstream rapper… My Rating: 2.6


17. “We On”
>>> Decent for an ending song; doesn’t do anything for me, though. Why “mixtape”? This sounds like an album!! It’s not mixed and doesn’t have a host! I consider it an album!! My Rating: 2.8


Overall: Started off real nice, but started gettin’ watered-down toward tha 2nd ½ wit all dat mainstream-soundin’ shit. Keep up tha producin’ thang; you ain’t that bad of a rapper, overall! All you have to do iz get rid of tha mainstream topics, and you’ll be aight!
