Review #1,487: Raj Smoove "The Greatest DJ In The World Vol. 1"

Reviewed on 12.25.2015 (Review #1,487)

Of course, not workin’ on Christmas and havin’ my half-brother figure out some new games in tha meantime, I figured I’d do a review… This one was sent to my email, randomly, from Raj Smoove, I believe… It’s Raj Smoove The Greatest DJ In The World Vol. 1, released on Paper Chasin’ Organization (P.C.O. Entertainment?) & D.E.O. Recordings. A compilation, let’s see what’s good wit this one… Start Time: 8:01 AM | End Time: 9:06 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 (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

Link To CD: http://www.datpiff.com/Raj-Smoove-The-Greatest-Dj-In-The-World-Vol-1-mixtape.742499.html

01. Raj Smoove “Opening”

>>> Nice movie intro, even though I feel like, it feels great to do reviewz again, but still feels weird… My Rating: N/A

02. Raj Smoove & Tunechi “Intro”

LOL, goin’ with tha “Tunechi” ID, here… >>> Sounds good with all that mixin’ that reminds me of tha early ‘00s, lol. My Rating: N/A

03. Lil’ Wayne “Pour Up”

Now, back to Weezy, lol… >>> Sounds like one of those regular-soundin’, newer Wayne songs out nowhere… Nothing terrible like tha end of tha ‘00s/early ‘10s, but just basic… Still, kinda long? No comment on tha rest of this boring shit… My Rating: 2.0

04. Paasky feat. Kourtney Heart “Negus”

>>> Not really anticipating R&B on this mixtape… Once tha rappin’ comes in, it only sounds decent; nothin’ strikin’ at all… It says, “Nigga,” on tha hook, but it’s titled “Negus,” lol? My Rating: 1.8

05. Raw Dizzy feat. Kidd Kidd “Ball”

! >>> Diggin’ tha start, so far; best from this mixtape, so far! Good shit from Dizzy on tha 1^st verse, here; good, consistent rappin’ at its finest… Tha 2^nd verse sounds good on this, too, as well as tha simple hook… Hearin’ Kidd on tha 3^rd verse and it ain’t bad, here; still betta than tha previous jointz on here! My Rating: 3.9

06. Kris Baptiste “No Play”
>>> Almost sounds like Drake to me… Hearin’ tha verse and it ain’t too bad, so far… Tha rhymes sound kinda catchy, but at tha same time, sound kinda typical… Tha hook’s shitty to me; no need for dumbass voice effects! Tha 2^nd verse ain’t too bad, here, though nothin’ that’ll capture me; almost has a Big Sean-like flow, now… My Rating: 3.1

07. LG feat. Kidd Kidd & Jay The Cool “Shive”

>>> Sounds like somethin’ comin’ from tha streets of N.O., here, fa tha 2010s… Not too bad with tha 1^st verse, here; at least it ain’t terrible… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s nice; nothin’ much ta say about it… Hearin’ Kidd on tha 2^nd verse and it’s pretty consistent in tha beginning with tha “test up” shit. LOL @ tha reference ta “Neva Eva” during tha last parts of tha 2^nd verse; nice! Hearin’ tha 3^rd verse from Jay and it’s nice with tha rappin’, but it’s ehh, as far as catchiness… My Rating: 3.7

08. Gus & Buddy “Each Ova”
>>> Ain’t know this “Buddy” passed… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s okay; hearin’ tha 1^st verse and this a-tune shit doesn’t go with me!! Not likin’ tha 2^nd verse’s voice, too; no interest in this! OMG, a 3^rd verse? Why?! Was gonna rate it a 1.1 but I’ll go even lower now!! My Rating: 1.0

09. Curren$y feat. Lil’ Wayne & August Alsina “Bottom Of The Bottle”
This more of a crossover-soundin’ song fa Mr. $y, even though I’m startin’ to like it more. Odd to see it on Music Choice Hip-Hop And R&B vs. Music Choice Rap, but that’s how it be, sometimes… My Current Rating: 4.2

10. Paco Troxclair “Duffy”

Glad this word’s back! >>> Kinda has an old-school vibe to it in tha beat, a lil’; almost reminded me of “Here I Go” with tha bass… Shit sounds nice on tha 1^st verse and tha hook’s on-n-poppin’! Definitely diggin’ tha great vibes of “goin’ duffy,” here! Too bad err-body abandoned tha “duffy” term ta just “get money,” now, smh! Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s soundin’ nice fa tha “Uptown” ones, as this Paco dude says! Tha 3^rd verse pretty nice, too, even though in my opinion, what would make this mixtape more consistent with tha soundin’ iz if most of tha songs were two-verse songs! My Rating: 4.2

11. Hot Boy Turk feat. Lil’ Wayne “You Mad Yet”

>>> Sounds aight, so far, with Wayne on tha hook, minus tha “money” garbage… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse, here (Turk), and it sounds nice ova this beat… “I bubble like Jacuzzi;” nice! Pretty nice joint, overall; startin’ ta dig tha Wayne hook even more… Uh oh, here he comes on tha 2^nd verse, too; can he handle it? Ehh, randomness, here… “My niggas move weight like Kelly Clarkson;” weak line/reference? An okay/almost-weak verse fa me… My Rating: 3.8

½time: Not too great of a start, so far, as there’s a bunch of decent tracks and a bunch of weak ones… Still, we’re movin’ through this! A 3.1-rated CD, currently.

12. Tre G “She Say She Love Me”
>>> This sounds good; nice lil’ dark sound, here… I’ono why but this voice almost reminds me of Lil’ Keke, at times? Not really diggin’ tha hook with tha “know I’m gettin’ money” shit but other than that, it’s decent… SMH @ 1:45 where “shit” iz censored! My Rating: 3.4

13. B Streezy “100”
>>> Kinda on tha R&B vibe fa me, but that’s what I expected from him, too; not tha best start fa me… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it ain’t too bad; kinda feelin’ this slow beat… Tha 2^nd verse’s not bad, but I feel like nothin’s capturin’ me with this one, either… My Rating: 2.6

14. Kourtney Heart “Villain”
>>> Kinda a strange-soundin’ song fa me with hearin’ her as a “villain,” but this sounds really catchy for an R&B song, lol. Definitely feelin’ all tha catchy vocals and sound, here, lol, especially that chorus/title! My Rating: 4.2

15. Flighteous “Right There”
>>> Just a decent-soundin’ song, here, between tha beat and tha rappin’… My Rating: 2.8

16. Kevin Gates “Kno One”
LOL! Would’ve heard it for tha 1^st time here if I wasn’t workin’ six dayz a week and carin’ about some stupid bitch that I put my all into, earlier this year! But yeah, just like tha Curren$y song, this anotha crossover one that’s on Hip-Hop And R&B vs. Rap (Music Choice). Kinda soft, but kinda good, at tha same time. P.S.: Nice drop; wish he would’ve done one for me in tha past! My Current Rating: 4.0

17. Dee-1 feat. Jones “Show On The Road”
>>> Nice lil’ strong hook with tha beat and everything; excellent start! Nice lil’ 1^st verse from Dee, here, strictly stayin’ motivated to “tha road!” Luv when I hit “tha road,” but it only has been to limited areas nearby, so far, such as Pennsylvania & New York… And, tha 2^nd verse’s soundin’ nice from Dee, here; nice job, guys! My Rating: 4.3

18. Kidd Kidd “N.O. (Right On Time)”
>>> Sounds catchy with tha “burps” and all that, lol? Nice 1^st verse but tha hook’s just basic fa me; I get it! “That check!” My Rating: 3.5

19. Sheba Songs “Restraining Order”
>>> Not feelin’ this a-tune garbage at all!! Couldn’t tell if it was a female or male at first, but it’s a chick; bleh…! My Rating: 1.0

20. 5^th Ward Weebie & Big Choo “Lurkin’”

This one looks like it gon be good! >>> Nice drop in tha beginning but lost all interest in this once I heard tha “Don’t Tell ‘Em” beat intro… Unless this can be a lil’ bounce-y, it could have a comeback…, maybe… Well, it looks like tha beat’s changin’ up a bunch of times; not bad for a bounce track… I’ono, this kinda boring fa me, overall; thought it was gon be a brand-new-soundin’ track… My Rating: 3.0

21. Kourtney Heart “Life Of The Party (Beat Back Remix)”
>>> I figured it was gon be bounce after tha previous joint on here… Kinda sounds nice ta hear; can’t complain… Again, anotha nice hook; great fa an R&B joint. Tha rest of this kinda drags on; like, it could’ve been shorter? My Rating: 3.3

22. Tunechi “Outro”
>>> Soundin’ nice and fulla dat shit! Really random and long fa an ending, but you know I luv when I hear Wayne talkin’! In tha end, afta all this “bag”-searchin’, Wayne “fucked this bitch;” bow!! My Rating: N/A

Overall: For tha most part, this mixtape was just touchin’ average at its best… A few R&B vibes got in tha way fa me, while there was a-tune garbage and shit. But, a few nice tracks, at least… And, this has been anotha FTLD review!

Podcast Appearance #01: The Blind Box (9.30.2015)

Taken from "The Blind Box":

Episode 61: Frankie Tha Lucky Dog has been there, done that. What is that? You name it, Frankie's done it. He's also the #1 source of information regarding Baton Rouge Hip Hop. Not Louisiana. Not New Orleans. BR. Frankie was recently featured in an article by Mass Appeal writer David Drake (SoManyShrimp) and GM & Catf1sh took to his story immediately. Frankie stops by the show and does a live countdown for the fans, as well as gets a few surprises from his favorite region in the entire world. Max Minelli, Savage, Danchrism (on behalf of Dee1), & David Drake all stop by to pay Frankie a visit and tell him how much he means to the community they call home.  In Segment 2 NeoThaAnomaly stops by to talk about the new next gen basketball game "NBA 2k16". Neo (like Frankie) know's his niche. Neo breaks down the up's and down's of NBA2k while GM plays HIS team & Catf1sh tells the story of how he won a game of FIFA in a league that...didn't actually count.  This is The Blind Box, It's Frankie Tha Lucky Dog Appreciation Day &  YOU get a guest! & YOU get a guest! & YOU.....

Article #02: Promo Only: eNewsletter April 2015

Profile: Frankie Seminario
A Shared Passion

It's not just a corporate slogan: Music IS our passion, a passion we like to think we share with all our customers, none more so than marathon Dance Radio reviewer Frankie Seminario, aka DJ Frankiethaluckydog.

Diagnosed with autism at age 12, Frankie found peace and passion in the rhythmic music he heard growing up each night on Long Island's Party 105.3. Inspired by 105's playlists, he began creating his own countdowns, based on what he would hear on P2P sites such as LimeWire, and posting them on a website of his own. His passion would later drive him, at just 17 years old, to review an album that rocked his young world, Cascada's "Everytime We Touch".

Frankie began reviewing in earnest upon receiving Dance Radio May 2006, his first Promo Only CD. He has since reviewed virtually every Dance Radio release and shared those reviews on a global platform where he has garnered the attention and admiration of artists such as Dee-1, Diana Falzone, Eddie Amador, Edun, Fila Phil, Jill Tirrell (Krista), Lokee, Lil' Cali, Kevin Gates, Marcie, Rod Carrillo, and VL Mike.

Today, with a Master's Degree in video production, a four-year stint hosting his own show on Marywood University's VMFM-91.7, 1,450 CD reviews, an article in Mass Appeal Records' magazine, and a second album about to be released to his credit, Frankie still finds the time to submit his Dance Radio reviews, for which we are most appreciative.

Thanks Frankie!

Review #1,445: Dee-1 "Still We Rise (Mixtape Preview)"

Reviewed on 2.08.2008 (Published as Review #1,445 on 2.20.2015)

Watz good Dee-1 it’s yo boy Frankie a.k.a. FrankieThaLuckyDog. Wanna send a happy 25^th birthday to Diana Falzone. Anyway, I’m really anticipatied to hear this lil’ mixtape preview our boy Jimmy The DJ sent to me. I thought it was a whole mixtape at first, but it’s only 3 tracks. I still wanna hear tha 3 tracks tho. He said it was about 2 years old, so here it goes, my review for Dee-1 Still We Rise (Mixtape Preview). BTW I don’t have a tracklisting, so it’s gonna be sort of a “blind review.” Start Time: 10:26 PM | Video Game Playing: None

01.

Let’s see tha 1^st joint on this mixtape! >>> Yeah I figured Dee-1 sounded younger. Nice line that your grandpa “has a pair of Girbauds.” That hook sounds pretty good for a singin’. Yeah “ya’ll ain’t ready for that 5-0-4.” Tha 5-0-4 takin’ ova! Gotta LOVE music from Louisiana!! Ewe it sounded like tha 3^rd verse was edited or somethin’… :confused Either way, this joint sounds nice and hot. Sounds like somethin’ older than 2 years. Feelin’ it. Dee-1’s rhymes sound REAL good. This sounded like somethin’ that was played on a Louisiana radio staton (Jimmy told me a few of your songs made it to stations in Louisiana). My Rating: 4.2

02.

What iz tha 2^nd joint gon sound like? >>> Like all tha shout outs to tha rappers from Louisiana, and tha shout outs to tha radio stations, including Hot 97. New York stand up (I’m originally from Long Island, New York; born n’ raised)! Yeah “call tha bank, and make sure tha check made it.” :This joint iz jammin’, and iz different due to that hook that I like. :tu R.I.P. to Soulja Slim. :( My Rating: 4.1

03.

Lemme peep out tha last one on here… >>> Beat sounds different. Kinda like “Make Me Better” (even tho this came out way before “Make Me Better”). Nice and smooth; a song for tha ladies. Like those 23 “ex”’s a lot!! I was only able to type up 12 of them at first, and I couldn’t keep up, lol. Yeah tha lady DEFINITELY gon feel you after those 23 “ex”’s. My Rating: 4.0

Overall: End Time: 10:42 PM. That was real nice for a lil’ preview! Dee-1, keep doin’ yo thang!

Rankings (according to ratings):

03.   Track 3 – 4.0

02.   Track 2 – 4.1

01.   Track 1 – 4.2

^ Yeah tha ratings were close to each other. Keep doin’ yo thang once again!

2.20.2015 EDIT: LOL, I still got shit on lock, 1,445 reviewz later! Didn’t publish this back in 2008 ‘cause I thought I was gonna get tha full thang. I didn’t change my wording or anything; just publishin’ it so it’s out there. Yeah, Dee, if you got tha full version of Still We Rise, I’d like it! I deserve to review it! You’ve come a long way since I reviewed this; lol, I was 19, not even gettin’ high back then! Great times, though I seemed so pre-mature! Now, I’m almost 27 and you’re almost 30!

Review #1,301: IL Duce "Do U Kno IL Duce"

Reviewed on 7.08.2013 (Review #1,301)

After a nice #MTVJams00s marathon all weekend of tha music I grew up with from 2000 – 2009, it distracted me from payin’ attention to anything. Now that it’s sadly over, I’m back wit tha reviewz: IL Duce Do U Kno IL Duce iz what I’m kickin’ today off with; let’s see how it goes! Start Time: 3:55 PM | End Time: 4:28 PM

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

01. “Intro”

Mod beat. Looks like there gon be some rappin’ in this intro… >>> Jumped right in afta a quiet beat intro… I like tha “fuck tha game up like I was Kardashian” line, lol… And, “I suck-cess” was interestin’… Tha 2^nd verse iz pretty nice, too! My Rating: 4.7

02. “Everywhere I Go (Like Ooohh)”
Paperboy beat (Twitter: @PaperboyGMBW). >>> You havin’ an orgasm in tha beginning? Not lookin’ forward… Not all tha way a-tune on tha hook, but tha hook has trashy lyrics!! This iz lyrical? No “stacks” shit and “downloadin’ my song” fa me, as well as these F-rated lyrics!! Okay, it picks up wit your 1^st verse, but because my reviewz are like school assignments, every part of tha song has a grade! Tha 2^nd verse iz also pretty consistent… If tha verses turned out shitty, I prolly would’ve rated this a 1.0. But, because you did a good job, tha rating’s pretty nice!!! My Rating: 2.5

03. “Howell Park”
B-Bangerz beat; same as Max Minelli “Angel Sing”, it looks like… >>> A long start wit screwed vocals… Now, a regular voice: Sounds good, especially it bein’ “tha first day of Summer.” That, actually, iz my birthday. Though it passed recently, it’s been a shitty “Summer,” so far; nothin’s happenin’, and gettin’ somewhat of a break wit goin’ on a trip has been fucked up. It’s like, what else could go wrong? 1:41, and tha 1^st verse iz finally here… Sounds good… 3:47 on tha length, and only one verse? That’s different… My Rating: 3.9

04. “Facial” Feat. CRIM!

Same producer, once again… >>> Beat’s on a typical, boring, mainstream-like, trap music (not tha genre, tha rap music) style… Sounds okay wit you on tha 1^st verse… All tha “Free Boosie” gets repetitive when it comes ta others sayin’ it. It’s not like they’re payin’ for his jail services… Hearin’ this new CRIM! dude on tha 2^nd verse… Okay for a newbie, but damn, does any rapper, especially new ones, not get “hoes”? Shit gets boring after 1,000,000x… My Rating: 3.5

05. “Bizness” Feat. Max Minelli

Mod on tha beat, here… >>> Sounds like a real nice beat start, and tha hook’s pretty to-tha-point… You’re on tha 1^st verse, and it sounds good. An okay verse from Max; a lil’ boring with these lyrics… My Rating: 4.0

06. “Breathtaking” Feat. Matt G
B-Bangerz beat. >>> An okay beat and hook. Soon as I heard tha a-tune in tha ‘new’ dude’s voice on tha 1^st verse, I sadly assumed he likes suckin’ dick ‘cause of that shit, smh! When will people think straight? Good lyrics from you on tha 1^st verse, but this’ll neva capture me ‘cause of tha a-tune…, in 2013, still? That’s so 2007 (maybe, 2008, too)! MySpace dayz!! You still on MySpace? Good lyrics in tha 2^nd verse—short 2^nd verse, though I’m startin’ ta dislike random fastness in tha deliveries… Gettin’ “hoes” iz easy again? I guess that’s how newbies have ta come wit it to gain attention? Don’t get it! My Rating: 3.1

07. “She’s A Rider” Feat. Mod Productions
Mod beat. >>> This iz off to an okay start, too… Hearin’ tha hook for tha 2^nd time, and it’s not for me at all. Why everyone gotta get boring “stacks” and announce it in music? It’s almost like they’re announcin’ that they’re good at bein’ gay, smh… My Rating: 3.2

½time: A decent start, so far. Some shit sounds a lil’ mainstream wit tha content, so far… 3.6 for tha CD rating, currently.

08. “Ya Look Good” Feat. CRIM!

Mod beat, again. >>> Catchy song fa tha hoes, this time, wit this vibe… Lyrics from you on tha 1^st verse are ehh, but tha vibe’s here… Here we go wit tha new artist on tha 2^nd verse… Everyone’s sex drive goes duffy at 12 or somethin’? Either way, this wasn’t too bad for a song… My Rating: 3.8

09. “Vocabulary”

Repeat songs? My Current Rating: 4.7

10. “Momma Prayed”

Mod doin’ tha beat, once again. >>> Not really my kinda style wit this topic, but it sounds nice wit tha beat and how you come through wit it… It’s bad enough I’m tryna do good business wit someone, and their “momma” comes up in tha conversation often, hence tha last time I talked to them. Was tryna get them to see me, and their brother, in tha passenger seat, was like, “Gimme tha phone, I wanna call mommy.” Like, wtf? No offense to moms—especially since I live with mine and always talk to mine, but I can’t take no dudes serious, after age 12, that bring up their “momma” often. I say that ‘cause I’ve always was picked on for bein’ close to my “momma,” so to see others talk about their mom in their 20s/30s, etc., like, really? Anyway, back to tha song… Why’d it get quieter durin’ tha 1^st verse? Tha verses are still good, though. My Rating: 3.7

11. “Put It Down” Feat. Keith Jacobs

I easily remember tha titles… My Current Rating: 4.3

12. “Room 326” Feat. S. McKnight

S. McKnight on tha feature; why was tha LiveMixtapes uploader anti-S. McKnight? My Current Rating: 4.1

13. “Neva Goin’ Back” Feat. Dee-1

Wow @ tha oldness… People could’ve lost their virginity by now! My Current Rating: 3.3

14. “Stardom”

Endin’ wit an EQ beat. >>> Good, but I don’t get tha “deal;” I don’t get why it’s worth somethin’. All it does iz make Kevin Gates more evasive wit gettin’ in touch wit me to do business, which does nothin’ for me payin’ my loans! Good and consistent rhymes in this one and only verse… Why’d it almost fade out toward tha 2:00 mark? Anyway, no filler here! My Rating: 4.5

Overall: Prolly could’ve subtracted tha newbies… Also, tha old songs are in tha past. Anything before December 14, 2011—death of my cousin and 27 dayz after I got robbed by a BR artist—should neva resurface! Some of this was decent, but you still have tha potential as a lyricist, so that’s good.

Review #1,030: Gangsta Gumbo Presents "Gangsta Gumbo Vol. 5: Still Up 5 Nothin'"

Reviewed on 7.11.2011 (Review #1,030)




A lil’ late by a ½ day, but betta late than neva. Currently not online yet, I’m about ta review Jimmy The DJ’s latest mixtape compilation! Under Gangsta Gumbo, it’s “Gangsta Gumbo Vol. 5: Still Up 5 Nothin’”; no host? Wasn’t it ‘pose ta be someone like B.G.? Also, it has been 649 reviewz ago that I reviewed Vol. 4, lol! Start Time: 10:51 AM | End Time: 1:10 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. 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. Kevin Gates “Intro”
Oh, okay; I guess semi-hosted, then? Should be interestin’, although only eight seconds? >>> LOL, it was so short but spicy ‘cause it was ‘bout dat “gangsta gumbo!” My Rating: N/A


02. Kevin Gates “Gangsta Gumbo Freestyle”
Should be interestin’; recorded by phone? Lemme hear! >>> Damn, soooooo much in only 27 seconds, so far!! Not even by phone; how’d this happen when he’s locked up?! One of tha best freestyles in a longgg-ass time!!! Lots of “sandwich” things, here; he definitely goin’ nuts… well, nuts on tha mic, wit a regular voice, lol! SMH @ tha two-second silence at tha end of each one, though; there’s an option to put no silence at tha end when burnin’ CDs. My Rating: 4.9


03. Level “Hot Spot”
It gon be like a “hot spot” today and tomorrow, peakin’ in tha ‘90s! I was tryna get a freestyle last night and sweatin’, so I didn’t get ta review this last night ‘cause of tha heat. But, here I am!! >>> LOL, now, he has a water bucket as tha beat background? Funny; too bad he ain’t hittin’ me back wit doin’ a freestyle and drop for my radio show. You know, I’m startin’ ta get lazy wit caring; rather get someone that can answer me! I dunno if I should comment on tha verses, here, ‘cause everything’s, like, tha same. Of course, tha rhymes are catchy for tha ladies; I’ll leave it at dat. My Rating: 4.5


04. Louisiana Ca$h Feat. Quick, Money Bagz & INFO “I’m From Louisiana”
You may spell his name wit “$” but I think it’s wit a “z”. Anyway, not too long ago, I heard this, and it seems to be a big anthem; much betta than tha “Dip” song! Thumbs up fa tha crazy-ass, Louisianaful hook, ya dig? Thumbs up ta Ca$h fa breakin’ down what it’s like when you’re in “Louisiana;” hope my waiting of gettin’ ta “Louisiana” ends soon! Money Bagz may have been good/decent wit tha 1st ½ of tha 2nd verse, but Quick, lol? LOL @ Quick on tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse; what crazy shit he spittin’ wit tha “cook crack/same what we cook gumbo in!” INFO’s pretty nice for a newbie on tha 3rd verse; good shit from you, especially tha self-esteem he has!! My Current Rating: 4.7


05. B.G. Feat. G.A. & Tay-Lo “Ride”
New song? Thumbs up for tha longer lengths; I think that adds good luck to a mixtape when there’s no mixin’, lol? I like ‘em both wayz but for you, it seems dat I’m likin’ tha CD a lot more when there’s no mixin’. >>> Ooh, this iz new; thought Gar was on tha feature, at first, lol. I’m really enjoyin’ tha dark-ass vibe in tha beat as well as tha “down bad” theme for tha hook! Good shit goin’ on wit tha 1st verse; thumbs up fa this actual-underground-soundin’ song from a mainstream rapper (B.G.)!! B.G. sounds pretty nice and gutta wit tha deeper-soundin’ voice on tha 2nd verse; much betta than tha good/typical shit I’m used ta hearin’, these dayz! Tha 3rd verse iz pretty gutta, too; this definitely iz dat official shit!!! My Rating: 4.8


06. 2ooley Feat. Lil’ One “Marlo Mike”
Good looks on havin’ tha feature on tha ID (in this case, Lil’ One = Lil’ One Da Ryder)! I actually had to do a manual check when I aired it on my radio show ‘cause you know I have a dignity rule: No song airs unless I know all tha artists’s names! Sounds like a new song everytime I hear it; such character in 2ooley’s voice wit all dat roarin’ on tha hook, lol!! One of tha more-soundin’ gangsta songs that’s out now! I’m expected ta be in one of his upcomin’ music videos, too; all about exposure!! Good shit from 2ooley, of course, on tha 1st verse; luvin’ his own tooley, lol! Lil’ One Da Ryder’s pretty nice on tha 2nd verse; this iz much betta fa him than tha shit I’ve heard on one of his CDs, so this iz a plus fa him. …I guess that’s him on tha 3rd verse? A lil’ confused… I think he’s on tha 3rd verse; not sure what’s goin’ on wit tha 2nd verse but tha 3rd verse iz pretty nice, too, wit tha content. Damn, mega fuck-up? Why tha last 40 seconds iz silence? Did it not register correctly on tha CD? My Current Rating: 4.6


07. Young Ready “Deebo Bounce”
I didn’t even realize “Bounce” was a part of tha title. When I aired it on my radio show for you, I was thinkin’ it meant “bounce” from bouncin’ a track? I’m glad I went tha safe route, though. Looks like Young Ready luvs tha lucky spot of #7 on tha CD? I remember on Vol. 2, “Cock, Aim, Shoot” was #7, too! Now, lemme do a lil’ review for this! >>> Thumbs up fa Savage producin’; sounds like some of tha omega-soundin’ shit I’m used ta hearin’ from people! Such a catchy hook wit tha “Deebo” shit! Tha 1st verse sounds pretty entertainin’; you know Ready’s all up fa anythang! Luv tha cockiness!! LOL @ tha “hoe”-related shit on tha 2nd verse; seems like Ready has everything on lock? Happy ‘late’ birthday, too! Thumbs up fa tha “’all day’ like T-Lo” part; you know you got BR blood in ya if you know “All Day” before “Uh Oh”! Tha 3rd verse iz a combination of tha 1st and 2nd verses; nothin’ but dat dumb shit! My Rating: 4.5


08. Lil’ Cali Feat. Level & Tank Jones “Money Right”
LOL. Due to one of tha things on tha track, it’s pretty much a novelty to me, but I’ll keep tha same rating; glad this iz tha version where each verse iz a full verse! My Current Rating: 4.9


09. Sess 4-5 “Hunnit Jeez A Month”
Really likin’ tha spellin’, here! How will Nuttin’ But Fire Records do on this compilation? >>> Sounds like a cool song; fits good wit tha “Money Right”—tha N.O. version! Nice job wit tha 1st verse; you know what it iz when you fuckin’ wit Sess 4-5! Tha 2nd verse iz also pretty catchy, but “a hunnit jeez a month”? Sounds like a hard mission but can be stereotyped as one of those fantasy thoughts. Tha reason I don’t get “a hunnit jeez a month” iz ‘cause a bunch of non-serious people don’t do frequent business wit me. Or, they hide away; I’m not a fan of uncalled-for secrets, too; makes me feel less of an upcoming, growing person. My Rating: 4.3


10. One-i Feat. Max Minelli “Don’t Have To Like Me”
Liked tha “Sick Wit It” dayz; let’s warp ta 2011 wit this new joint! >>> Ooh, Stevie Drumma on tha beat but why tha dumb-ass “The Boss” beat tag in tha beginning (J.R. Rotem’s beat tag)? Sounds like a tight beat, regardless, as well as this H-Town/screwed-and-chopped-soundin’ hook! One-i’s comin’ through wit some tight, focused shit on tha 1st verse; thumbs up fa always comin’ through on tha Gangsta Gumbo mixtapes, One-i! Max’s on tha 2nd verse and it’s all about “luvin’ [yourself];” most definitely! LOL @ One-i on tha 3rd verse; definitely luvin’ himself! Good job wit this joint, too! Looks like this finna be a five-star-rated CD? My Rating: 4.4


½time: Wow, this seems like a real hot mixtape!! Of course, I thought it was gonna be hot, but it’s, like, 10-for-10 when it comes ta seriousness (kinda 9-for-9 since tha intro wasn’t a song)!! Wanna know what tha CD rating iz, currently? It’s 4.6; major moves!!!!!!


11. Terror (Down Bad) Feat. Young Ready & Lee Bank$ “Baton Rouge Thang”
I heard this on DJ 5150’s latest mixtape compilation and I thought this was somethin’ serious; defeated “I’m From Louisiana” when it came to tha ranking! Didn’t know “thang” was in tha title; smh @ their error (which also, they didn’t have “Ready” in Young Ready’s name). Wouldn’t’ve expected a Down Bad-type song ta make your mixtape but this iz dat A+-type shit!! Terror’s such a character wit his “hit tha muthafuckin’ blunt!!!” on tha hook!!! Also, when he’s rappin’ on tha 1st verse, it sounds like some Tupac/’90s-sampled music on tha beat’s keys!! Oh, I keep forgettin’ tha “blunt” part was just tha intro. But, tha hook’s pretty nice wit tha “windmill” shit (I think that’s what he’s sayin’); go, Terror!! Ready’s comin’ through wit some hyperness, plus sirens, on tha kick-ass 2nd verse!! Lee Banks iz someone good on this song, too. Although he had R&B music when I reviewed him, he’s pretty serious on this shit, which iz a big plus! My Current Rating: 4.8


12. Lil’ Ganggsta “All Fucked Up”
Glad he’s on here! Looks like err-body I’ve loved iz on this mixtape in a great way!! >>> Beat from Wodieson; let’s see how this new joint gon turn out! Volume sounds a lil’ lower than tha previous songs. LOL, catchy hook; what else iz there ta say? “My mind always alert,” no matter what tha case iz; I always prove ta people dat I have tha brains in any situation! LOL @ his “rollin’” obsession on tha 1st verse; I wonder what date and time he started dat shit? I think it’s creative if people remember date and time! For example: On June 10, 2011 @ 8:55 PM, I witnessed someone snort cocaine for tha 1st time; had ta look at my phone’s time, ya dig? Good shit, here, Ganggsta; keep tha rappin’ brain up!! Tha 2nd verse sounds like an obstacle course dat Ganggsta has ta cross. However, he stayin’ alive fa a long-ass time!! My Rating: 4.3


13. Dog Da Cutthroata Feat. Foxx “Intoxicated (Remix)”
I like to call this a remix, although it might fit in tha “To The Max” category, where there was an added verse to make it an official version. Surprised he made your CD, too; lots of 2009-discovered people comin’ through in a nice way, here! Sounds like a funny song; you know Dog has his own flow and it’s catchy, especially wit all tha “intoxicated”-ass shit, lol! Up, Foxx said it was a remix; guess it’s official… Why does tha quality in tha audio not sound as good? I know I have this; I think mine was a better quality? Glad Foxx came through, though, ‘cause his energy makes tha track hot, too! LOL, didn’t realize I rated this as high as 4.7; I guess ‘cause I rated tha original version between 4.5 and 4.6. My Current Rating: 4.7


14. Dee-1 “Blue”
Huh? He’s on tha back cover, too? Thought I saw his face but I had to think I was 23 years-old and not 19 when thinkin’ about it! He betta’ve paid you for it! I don’t see why there’s tha attention (even following on Twitter, too)? Even my grandma thought that was weird when I sadly, and ironically, brought y’all up yesterday. If someone hasn’t talked to me in at least two years, why get their attention outta nowhere? They need to ‘cause then, you can give them a WTF look. As Alexia told me, “I think u should stop communicating wit him,” which should include caring, in a serious way. Prolly could’ve made this #13 but I guess it took an unlucky 13 to get to this, anyway. I realized, tha 1st time I talked to you, you were 23 years-old and now, I am. However, I dunno if it’s ‘cause it’s 2011 or whateva, but I don’t take shit from anyone, anymore. Plus, I don’t give a shit about anyone, anymore, unless they give a shit about me in person. By havin’ this perspective, this iz why my status iz higher and why I’m gettin’ ta travel/do events. Gee, no wonder why I didn’t go to Louisiana last year: dealt wit a bunch of fake people between resurrections and unexpectations, didn’t earn any money networking since 2008, buried myself in a bunch of shitty-ass reviewz, and I gave a fuck about people. >>> Wow, talk about a complete deal-breaker from tha previous song’s intros…; you weren’t on any drugs while addin’ this song, were you? Regardless, I think this iz pretty nice wit tha rhymes and tha beat’s startin’ ta sound good. Tha sample ain’t even too bad, either. Regardless, who cares what I say ‘cause he ain’t gonna read this, anyway. ROFL, what happened at 2:23? Random yellin’ that I’m likin’! LOL, a whole verse fulla tha word “dawg;” neva would’ve expected dat comin’! But yea, actually like this; forget all tha shit I doubted in tha beginning but on tha real, I could’ve at least earned somethin’ from Dee-1 by now. My Rating: 4.4


15. Preach, Ace, C-Love, Bro-Bro, Lil’ J, Puppy, Delwin The Krazyman & Ceddybu “Pulling Off”
LOL, I knew of what song this was based off tha length. I thought Nu$$ie was gonna be on it but it’s cool ta see all these random people; wonder how everyone gon sound like? >>> Big Josh doin’ tha beat, here; it’s all luv ta have tha Nu$$ie/Big Fancy team as producers! LOL @ tha hook; sounds like an Obama speech, in a really random way. LOL, was this where tha title of tha mixtape came from? I heard, “we still up, five nothin’,” or somethin’ like dat. Anyway, this 1st verse iz pretty good, minus tha random “Nu$$ie!!!” ad-libs (why am I still writin’ that in 2011? Wasn’t I 20 when it was cool ta see dat written?)… LOL, a new Ace? Not even tha one from G-Lane or tha one I heard from New Orleans? LOL, but I’m really likin’ tha anger and seriousness he bringin’ to tha table! LOL, tha ID’s so long, I thought Bro-Bro was next, but it’s this C-Love dude, comin’ through wit some catchiness… Bro-Bro’s on tha 4th verse, of course, comin’ through wit some catchy, 225-type shit! LOL, by tha way, once again, where did tha 1st three mysterious dudes come from? Were they hidden people or are they newbies? Lil’ J’s comin’ through on tha 5th verse (I spell him as “Lil’ J” ‘cause I think there was a Lil’ Jay from New Orleans, who dropped a “Gold Teeth Gator” CD in 2001); pretty quick… Tha 6th hook changed ta Puppy and it’s too much of jackin’ wit tha quoting; really should leave tha quoting alone. I was walkin’ down tha block yesterday, and I was thinkin’ dat tha best way ta make a song iz to not quote people; just consider yourself underrated and come up wit your own shit. Puppy does sound pretty good on tha 6th verse, though; not too bad… Hope Delwin ain’t too Nu$$ie-cocky on tha 7th verse… Actually, it’s pretty catchy wit tha crazy shit he spittin’, lol. Oh, not likin’ tha “Nu$$ie!!!”-imitated “Delwin!!!” ad-lib. Final verse… Round 8: Ceddybu, comin’ through wit some crazy flow and dat voice, lol! Much betta ta hear him on somethin’ like this but then again, I haven’t heard much of him, yet; I feel like I’ve talked ta him more than tha amount of songs I’ve heard from him. My Rating: 4.6


16. Damage Feat. Level “Still An Alcoholic”
LOL, guess you got tha e-mail from Joe (MMX), too? Oh yea, I keep forgettin’ about tha Real Profit Entertainment/Gangsta Gumbo collaboration/combination. Don’t think I got ta peep out tha remix (to tha original “Alcoholic” song), yet; I aired a different song he sent me onto my radio show not too long ago. >>> Sounds like a brand-new production, too; somethin’ serious, here!! Glad you got some Damage on here; good hook, too! Definitely fits in a great position to where “Nutcase” was on Vol. 2 (#15); perfect fiting, once again! Good shit comin’ from tha hyper-soundin’ Damage, here; thumbs-tha-fuck-up!! Level’s on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit a 2011 perspective, here; definitely tha shit when he keeps shit up!! Yea, Damage comin’ through on tha 3rd verse, too; nothin’ but some good shit goin’ on; gotta luv tha consistency dat doesn’t stop!! My Rating: 4.7


17. C-Loc “Excuse Me Sir”
This looks like somethin’ serious, too! Let’s see how his polite-ass (lol) gon do, here! >>> LOL, a Wodie beat fa C-Loc? Good look fa 2011! Hopefully, if Loc still has tha same numba, I would like ta get a freestyle from him for my radio show and a drop (or maybe an interview instead of tha freestyle). LOL, tha hook’s pretty nice—polite and kick-assness, lol! Sounds like a good mix, includin’ tha 1st verse, where there’s some good rhymes and punchlines goin’ on. LOL, some of this iz startin’ ta sound cheesy fa me; 2nd verse only aight, since tha cheese iz startin’ ta mix in… My Rating: 4.1


18. Lil’ Witness Feat. Young Bleed “Let Me In”
Original version? Heard tha remix 1st and now, an original version? Am I thinkin’ right? I have a feelin’ they gon sound tha same… >>> Yea, this iz tha same version I heard, even though I don’t think “remix” should be in tha previous ID I heard this on. Anyway, just like tha previous review, I gon re-review it now: Like tha intro wit tha conversation, tha kick-ass beat, tha nice hook about openin’ a door (lol), and you know dat Witness’s comin’ through wit tha crazy-ass shit in tha 1st verse!! Of course, Bleed sounds good on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit dat hood shit, as always! And, ta end it off, Witness’s comin’ through wit some mo good shit fa tha ears out there! My Current Rating: 4.7


19. J.R. Feat. Lil’ Cali “Helluva Night”
LOL @ tha “helluva” and “night”; interestin’… Didn’t even appear on J.R.’s “Street Dreams” album but it’s here/on tha CD he has wit Bic Jack & Dirty Harry! Plus, thumbs up fa havin’ him on tha back cover! He a real-ass dude; luvs talkin’ ta me and keeps up wit me, too! Catchy hook wit this Mod Productions beat, of course. He comes through on tha 1st verse in a nice way, too; gotta set tha mood, ya dig? And as for Cali, he comin’ through nicely fa J.R.; glad they’re connected like dis! Good job wit J.R. endin’ tha song off on tha 3rd verse; he really got his connects up, which iz a big plus for a real dude like him! My Current Rating: 4.4


20. D-Matic Feat. K.Gates & Young “Life On The Line”
I did some of tha editing on tha cut-offs wit tha tracks; let’s see if I can guess tha last song (wit 5:00 on tha length)… … …D-Matic? Wasn’t he ‘pose ta be on here? *Checks ID* It iz!! This looks so familiar on tha ID, but it ain’t comin’ up in my iTunes; lookin’ forward ta hearin’!! >>> Kinda nervous ta hear a beginnin’ beat like this; hope nothin’ gets jynxed… Okay, once tha hook came in, I knew it was gonna be on ‘n’ poppin’; great voice he has!! I feel bad; I think I got his # a year ago and neva got ta call him, yet. I need ta adjust myself a lil’ betta… Anyway, Young’s on tha ID 2nd but iz on tha 1st verse? Feelin’ what he spittin’ on this shit; very consistent!! This iz a nice way ta end this CD; I guess I should trust you when you say, “definitely our best, yet [Vol. 5]!” Tha 2nd verse sounds serious; tha flow’s aight but tha consistent lyrics are on, here! Tha 3rd verse sounds pretty serious, too; “lost so many pills,” he said? Either way, I’m definitely likin’ tha lyrics, once again. My Rating: 4.2
