Review #1,751: The Greatest Rap Hits From Downsouth New Orleans "The Real New Orleans Compilation"

Reviewed on 8.09.2017 (Review #1,751)

For my next review in my Louisiana Reviewz Marathon, it’s a compilation… The Greatest Rap Hits From Downsouth New Orleans The Real New Orleans Compilation, released in 1998. Since it’s a compilation, I’m not 100% sure which songs I done heard or not heard, due to I been reviewin’ these old CDs fa tha past eight years. I’m not gonna go too in-depth wit tha review; it’ll be quick… Start Time: 7:17 PM | End Time: 7:43 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!

Link To CD: N/A

01. “Rough Neck Cutties”

It’s spelled “cutties,” but it’s “cuties”? Lol… >>> Quality’s ehh, but this sounds like a nice lil’ jam from back in tha day… Good job with tha hook and these “cuties,” lol. Tha 1^st verse’s soundin’ okay; I can dig it… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s soundin’ catchy with these chicks; lol @ “Salt N Pepa” and that reference about “paper.” Even endin’ tha verse wit them singin’ SWV, “I’m So Into You”, lol. Tha 3^rd verse’s soundin’ good; catchy rhymes in tha beginning of tha verse… Endin’ wit a “rough neck” chant, here, too… My Rating: 4.0

02. Interlude – Phone Call

Let’s hear… >>> Sounds like a hater; blah, blah, blah… I like how tha background music’s Mardi Gras-like with “don’t start no stuff, won’t be no stuff” in tha background… My Rating: N/A

03. “Don’t Start No Stuff” feat. Mia X

And, here we are! >>> Bounce beat, but a lil’ nursery rhyme-like beginning? Really mixed up styles, here; let’s see how this progresses… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it sounds good fa this track, flowin’ through wit tha bounce and tha rappin’… Tha 2^nd verse sounds kinda loud and really energetic… More shit comin’ outta tha 3^rd verse, too, here… My Rating: 3.7

04. “Early N The Morning (The Original)” feat. Ronell Bell of NBA

>>> Partners-N-Crime? Naw, it’s y’all… Quality’s kinda fucked-up but it still sounds nice ta hear… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it sounds great ta hear this scene, walkin’ “thru tha do’” Tha hook ain’t too bad, compared to tha actual other version… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it sounds like a nice lil’ collaboration between everyone, here… I like tha crazy “ring, ring” shit dude goin’ nuts with; totally high feelin’, lol? My Rating: 3.9

05. Interlude – Out All Night

>>> Nice and loud with an argument goin’ on, here. Lol, I believe this whole entire album an argument, lol… Random singin’… My Rating: N/A

06. “YudoMeLikDat?” feat. DJ Jubilee & Dionne Davis

Lol @ tha collab! Can’t wait ta hear! >>> Sounds like a jam with this singin’ in tha beginning; nice shit, so far… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse from Sha Ra and it’s soundin’ catchy ova this beat… Tha hook sounds nice ta hear, here… Tha 2^nd verse ain’t too bad, here; kinda quick, overall… Ooh, a rappin’ Jubilee on tha 3^rd verse, here, with all tha “Jubilee” chantin’ in tha background, too! Dope shit!! What a quick verse, but it was worth it! Worth a repeat! Nice lil’ chantin’ toward tha last 1:18 with, “Da Sha Ra iz in tha house!” Oh wait, it must be a different song ‘cause it’s tha title of tha next song! Damn! Whoeva ripped this ripped it wrong! My Rating: 4.2

07. “In Da House”

[No preview, due to it randomly went into it on tha previous joint…] >>> Sounds nice with this energetic beat and how y’all holdin’ it down “in da house!” Nice “Pump Up The Volume” samples, randomly, too… Great job wit tha 1^st verse and tha 2^nd verse’s soundin’ pretty energetic, too, as it neva ends! Great job wit tha 3^rd verse, too; can’t deny tha energy! Even a 4^th verse, here? Keepin’ it goin’! My Rating: 4.1

½time: Sounds like a nice-and-energetic release, so far! Good shit, y’all! A 4.0-rated album, at tha moment!

08. “Still Bootin’ Up” feat. Mia X

Keepin’ it goin’… >>> Lots of energy, here! Great job wit tha energetic beat with tha crowd in tha background! Also, some of those trombones in tha background! Y’all wildin’ out, here, throughout tha hook and tha 1^st verse! Tha 2^nd verse’s continuin’ this craziness, too! All it has ta sound like iz a bunch of energetic yellin’ and chantin’ and I’ll love it, lol! A lil’ calmer with how tha voice sounds toward tha end, despite it still bein’ loud, lol? My Rating: 4.3

09. Prelude

>>> Just a beat, lol? Nice ta control my anticipation! My Rating: N/A

10. “Nothin’ Better” feat. Dionne Davis

Dionne’s back ta sing some mo! >>> Beat’s pretty funky and soundin’ cool, here… Hearin’ Dionne on tha 1^st verse, here; sounds nice… Tha rappin’ joins tha 1^st verse, too, and it ain’t too bad… It sounded better on tha previous joint Dionne collaborated on, but this still nice… I like tha “tickity-tickity-tock” shit, tho… Not too bad fa a track, overall; kinda plain fa me with tha non-stop singin’, at times… My Rating: 3.6

11. “Stunt Man (Remix)”
>>> Reminds me of some “dope man, dope man”-type shit; decent, so far… A long beginning but now, we got tha 1^st verse… So far, it ain’t too bad; kinda plain, at times… Tha 2^nd verse ain’t soundin’ that bad, here… Tha 3^rd verse aight fa me… Long ending, here, with everyone bein’ “a stunt man,” lol. My Rating: 3.5

Nice title… >>> Lots of shakin’ in tha beginning, here; nice… Pretty crazy wit tha loud vocals, lol; “bruh,” y’all even sayin’, lol! I’ono how much interest I have in this, as it’s long and repetitive… It ain’t too bad, at times, but at times, it bores me… Craziness; it don’t stop… Almost sounds like Prince “ahh”in’ at tha end, lol; decent fa a song that bored me… My Rating: 3.7

13. “Bootin’ Up (Remix)”

>>> Y’all cuttin’ “up,” here… Just diggin’ tha loud vocals and how y’all keep tha energy comin’! Not bad wit tha 1^st verse, here, and tha hook decent… Crazy shit throughout tha 2^nd verse; doesn’t stop, lol! Tha rest of this keeps it goin’… My Rating: 3.6

14. Shot Out

>>> Nice with a mix of Tupac’s music in tha background, here… Still, y’all vocals way too loud! My Rating: N/A

Almost like Mystikal anger, lol! Tha 2nd verse’s pretty good like tha 1st verse; a lotta Louisiana shit goin’ on in err-one’s lives, lol.

02. “Don’t Start No Stuff” Feat. Mia x & Da Sha Ra
Looks like sampleish wit tha title? >>> Yea, sounds like sample-type shit all ova tha place for tha start… I like dat there’s a Bounce style here! There’s a gurl rappin’ on dis? Who iz it?
