Review #1,152: M.A. "H.E.R.T."

Reviewed on 4.30.2012 (Review #1,152)

Wish I could’ve squeezed more reviewz in for this month, but it iz what it iz; goin’ to sleep a lil’ earlier to catch this girl Mica 2morrow! Gotta interview her for one of my projects, and you know how anticipatin’ it iz for college gurlz! :) To end off tha month of April, here’s a Jungle Records release: M.A. H.E.R.T.! Start Time: 10:55 PM | End Time: 11:23 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!

Link To CD: http://www.datpiff.com/mixtapes-detail.php?id=325861T

01. “Power Struggle”

>>> Time fa some “Power” beat, here… Beat makes this boring, but I like your rhymes, here, showin’ luv ta your city/tha state of Louisiana. My Rating: 3.4

02. “Bill Gates (Freestyle)” Feat. Dino

>>> This iz a lil’ betta; I like how Dino sounds on this wit his rhymin’, internet style… My Rating: 3.5

03. “Wrong”

>>> Oh, an original production from JokaBoi, here; thumbs up fa tha new music! Hearin’ how tha beat sounds wit you blendin’ in it and it sounds like it could fit into tha mainstream, in a way… My Rating: 3.7

04. “Boyz 2 Men (Block Love)”

I dunno what ta expect wit this kinda title… >>> Okay, a nice beat you chose, here; feelin’ tha “hard times” rhymes. You’re right about tha “no BET,” even though if it’s Northeast PA, that’s tha case, since I ain’t got BET. Then again, they’re, like, dead without Rap City: Tha Basement! I think this iz catchy; tha vibe makes it sound good fa tha streets. My Rating: 3.8

05. “A.C.T.”

Whoooooo!!! Kinda keep forgettin’ ‘bout this song; think I finna add it to my personal playlist! My Current Rating: 4.2

06. “I Eat Trackz”

Looks RoyDezzyish on tha title… >>> Lol @ how tha hook sounds; catchy lil’ sound, here, as you’re eatin’ your way to tha top, lol! Rhymes are not bad, either… My Rating: 3.7

07. “Kay’len 2”

>>> A baby girl start; good that you threw that in fa tha people out there. Nothin’ too special wit tha beat and tha hook, but your rhymes are good to hear… My Rating: 3.1

08. “Disgusted”

Good title; this iz one of tha words I said in one of tha final projects I did with my group, recently, so I’m lookin’ forward ta hearin’ this, in a way… >>> Decent sound; hook ain’t too bad, either, since you’re grindin’… Good rhymes to describe a “disgusted” M.A., lol. My Rating: 3.6

09. “Mrs. Do It Rite”

>>> “X-rated”? Ooh, on tha M.A. tip; lookin’ forward ta hearin’! Lol, some of tha lyrics are kinda funny, here; “I’m a fuckin’ monster…,” and then, it gets dirtier, lol!! Thumbs up fa dis; definitely gettin’ a kick outta it… My Rating: 4.0

½time: A 3.7-rated CD, currently; not too bad, as you always keep somethin’ up. I thought this was called Hert, but it’s H.E.R.T., as an acronym.

10. PSA 1

>>> Thanx fa dis lil’ skit, in tha mist of this! Oh yea, tha Twitter: @ma225; props… My Rating: N/A

11. “Pose 4 Tha Mirror”

My Current Rating: 3.8

12. “Up N Here” Feat. Gutta Baby & Uptown Redd

JokaBoi doin’ anotha beat! >>> Sounds a lil’ familiar, but I’m luvin’ this beginning beat; definitely on dat tight level!! Good shit from you, here…; hearin’ tha 2^nd verse, and tha lady’s okay, but it’s soundin’ a lil’ betta, all of a sudden… Tha 3^rd verse iz pretty good, too, as far as creatin’ a nice vibe. My Rating: 4.1

13. “Get Off” Feat. Lil’ P.A., Pada & Blacc

>>> Can I drink some bloody, slimy vomit? Almost passed out wit tha first few seconds; should skip, but I think I need to talk about how hot Havana Brown iz than leave certain feedback! I have ta say, good song fa you be on, though, no matter how uncomfortable I feel right now! Nothin’ personal at all; I only state opinions, so no offendingness goin’ on, here!! My Rating: 4.4

14. PSA 2

>>> A longer one… I’m likin’ what you sayin’, here; keep tha skits and PSAs comin’!! I agree wit this “lyin’” shit you talk ‘bout, here; had a self-destructed event happen to me last night, for someone that didn’t take my ratings seriously! :td My Rating: N/A

15. “I’m Out Chea” Feat. Jay Regal & Tut

Anotha JokaBoi production! >>> Oh, I rememba this from a while ago; good ta hear this on here. My Current Rating: 4.4

16. “What Cha Hustle 4” Feat. Kee Low Magnum

Production from Drako Da Beat Man, here. >>> Good, no beat tag! Oh, anotha familiar song; thumbs up! My Current Rating: 4.3

17. “T.D.H.” Feat. Stretch

Ooh, lookin’ forward ta hearin’ a Stretch collab, especially wit you! >>> Iz this tha same dude from tha Savage Unit clique? It sounds more like a Jungle Records voice that sounds good, than a Savage Unit Stretch… Thumbs up fa this Stretch showin’ you luv; what else could he ask for, lol? You got some catchy shit goin’ on here, too, M.A.; lol, just randomly, puttin’ your “condom on,” lol! My Rating: 4.1

18. “2nite I Wanna Cry”

>>> Sorry, this ain’t my kinda shit, between tha hook and beat. However, listenin’ to your rhymes and they are of unfortunate content; nice job deliverin’ these rhymes… My Rating: 2.6

Overall: Better than I expected; you got pretty lucky wit tha 2^nd ½! Keep up wit droppin’ tracks wit original production!!

Link To CD: http://www.datpiff.com/PADA-Free-Boo-Boo-mixtape.316208.html

01. Intro

>>> You actually sound like M.A. wit tha voice; good intro. My Rating: N/A

02. “1 N A Million” Feat. Ya Yo

>>> Nice for a really slow beat; “did niggaz dirty”? I was gonna ask, do people do you “dirty”? Like, how do you succeed, without people bein’ bitches, wit sellin’ shit? Tha Ya Yo gurl sounds good wit her ‘90s-soundin’ voice and delivery, on tha hook. My Rating: 3.8

03. “Steppin’” Feat. Uptown Redd

I remember this; thanx for M.A. for sendin’ it to me! Sounds like a catchy song that’s okay wit tha whole “steppin’” thing; at least you’re squashin’ people. My Current Rating: 3.6

04. “Jacc Boy” Feat. Corday

>>> Sounds like an okay flow; almost sounds like I heard this kinda flow before, wit tha “robbery” beginning… Good 2^nd verse from tha Corday dude, “dressed in all black.” Feelin’ these “drugs” rhymes, especially when it comes ta “lookin’” fa ‘em! My Rating: 3.6

05. “CNN” Feat. Jay Regal

>>> Didn’t know what ta expect wit this; I like how it’s a trap anthem. Once again, anotha really slow beat ta rap off of… Jay Regal, lol wit tha “chair” that he had “ta grab fa” all tha “money;” good shit. My Rating: 3.7

06. “R-N-U” Feat. M.A.

>>> Good beginning from M.A.; keep it goin’… Oh, a hook; sounds good. Lol @ tha “university” part; sounds like a catchy part for such a random word, lol! Not bad wit your part on tha 1^st verse, Pada; M.A. has a slightly-betta verse on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through by ownin’ tha track. My Rating: 3.9

07. “Tell It How It Is” Feat. Ty

Bonus track @ #07? >>> I don’t really like hearin’ tha word “real” quite a lot, in a song, so this iz more on tha below-average/okay side for me… Tha rhymes are okay; guess features make tha songs better? My Rating: 3.1

08. “Clutchin’” Feat. Ty, Dino & Dogan

>>> Young Jack doin’ production, here; sounds like a hot beat. Tha hook sounds pretty tight; guess original production helps? Ooh, “Aimin’ at yo neck, tryna rip away ya vocal box;” gettin’ rid of dat ‘Me-Luv-Dick Tune’! I like how this iz on a gangsta tip; seems quite like a mission, too, wit tha music. Tha 3^rd verse sounds like it could be tha best fa me; lol @ tha “urinal” part. One of my group assignments iz based on a urinal, for class, lol; really lookin’ forward ta filmin’ new things! Keepin’ this shit goin’ wit some gangsta shit; damn @ this over-five-minute length… My Rating: 4.0

½time: A 3.7-rated CD; just like other Jungle Records CDs, this iz decent, too.

09. “My Jost Was Hard (Skit)”

>>> Likin’ that it’s a skit… Oh, maybe it should’ve been called a freestyle? I don’t know what a “jost” iz but it sounds good in these rhymes… My Rating: 4.1

10. “Blessed Child (Problems)” Feat. Ty & Lil’ Faron

Not really my kinda title… >>> I dunno why, but this beat start sounds really hot, whateva it iz; good pick! Tha 1^st verse sounds kinda typical, wit tha whole money, money, money shit… Tha hook’s okay, too; thought it would be a lil’ more catchier, wit betta lyrics, on a beat sound like dis… Tha 2^nd verse iz a lil’ betta; nothin’ really ta comment about it… A lil’ betta wit tha 3^rd verse, too; sounds like they’re reppin’ nicely fa tha team. Actually, hearin’ tha hook again, and it’s soundin’ like a great hook; pretty catchy on this beat! My Rating: 4.1

11. “Game Fukked Up”

Finally, a solo song? >>> Beginning sounds good; rhymes sound good on this beat, too. My Rating: 3.8

12. “Toat That Iron” Feat. Blacc

Bonus? >>> What’s wit tha jacked beat? Yuck… Likin’ that Blacc dude; hope he raps on some original-produced music… Can’t really comment on you, here, ‘cause tha beat’s jacked, which my interest’s really at 0. I’m only commentin’ on Blacc ‘cause this tha 1^st time I’m hearin’ him; glad he got some gangsta shit on here! My Rating: 3.3

13. “Dope Rental” Feat. Lil’ Faron

>>> I like this title and how this sounds, for what it iz… Oh no, all this money-related shit on tha 1^st verse; time ta skim through tha song! Tha feature’s okay, here, but doesn’t really do anything wit my interest… My Rating: 3.0

14. “Small Circle” Feat. Lil’ Faron

>>> Sounds like somethin’ I can usually hear about how people are assholes, and that you only mess wit a few; nothin’ new. My Rating: 2.7

15. “All Black Everything” Feat. Dude Blitz & Bear

Kinda bleh wit tha title… >>> Yea, anotha one that sounds like nothin’ new… A lil’ more excitin’ wit tha 2^nd verse, as far as, basically, tha flow… Tha 3^rd verse’s a lil’ betta, but tha content’s still boring. My Rating: 2.9

16. “Nikki”
>>> Ehh, nothin’ that great; not really into family-member songs, especially in rap music, especially in underground music! My Rating: 2.3

17. “Steppin’ (Clean)” Feat. Uptown Redd

See #3 fa tha review!

Overall: Okay, but tha 2^nd ½ was more below-average for me.

Rankings:

15.       “Nikki” 2.3

14.       “Small Circle” Feat. Lil’ Faron 2.7

© 2012 CD Review (Review #1,125) reviewed on 1.19.2012 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.

Link To CD: N/A


01. “The Rap Derek Lewis”
>>> LOL @ tha short ‘host’ intro… Sounds a touch catchy wit how you’re comin’ wit this song… Once again, you sound like Jay Regal, in a family way, wit tha voice… Oh, only one verse, here? Good job wit tha outro/radio talk, at tha end; you say this a “promo disc”? Sounds more like a mixtape, for me; “free Bear”? SMH @ jail!! My Rating: 3.8


02. “I Just Wanna Rip”
>>> At least this mixtape has mixin’ in it… Rhymes sound pretty good; longer outro than song, lol? Kinda funny, but it’s always good ta hear some details. My Rating: 3.6


03. “A.C.T.”
Ironically, I’m studyin’ “ACT” framework for class, currently; let’s see what you got, here. >>> Of course, it ain’t tha framework, and more on what anyone can talk about. Oh, even though it’s an acronym, it’s more of a word, wit an acronym spellin’: “Watch me act a ass wit it;” I see… Sounds good, wit how everything sounds together; a “Q Black” production, accordin’ to you. Prolly could’ve added some more energy wit a song like dis… My Rating: 3.9


04. “Good Nite” (J.A.P.A.N.)
You already know. My Current Rating: 4.2


05. “Pose 4 Tha Mirror”
>>> Time fa an anthem for those “ladies” dat gon “pose 4 tha mirror”? Let’s see… Thought it was gonna be a lil’ soft, but it’s a good/okay song, overall; not bad wit tha hook… Rhymes also go wit tha hook; nothin’ bad ‘bout dis… My Rating: 3.8


06. Friday (Skit)
>>> LOL, didn’t expect a skit on this mixtape, for some reason (I guess since tha previous ones I reviewed didn’t have any); nice job wit this “garbage” (and I don’t mean negatively)! My Rating: N/A


07. “Up N Here”
>>> Sounds like an anticipatin’, Beat Flippa meets Nu$$ie-type beat, here; lookin’ forward! Kinda took a while wit tha beginning, but this sounds good. Still, might need more energy in tha voice!! Good job wit this club shit; I have ta feel it better than usual songs! My Rating: 4.2


08. “Ham N Dis Bytch” Feat. Dino & Bear
>>> Almost five minutes long, but let’s see what I can get outta this… Nice beginning rhymes; anotha hot club/good anthem. Even though there should be more energy in tha voice, this sounds good/shit I can tolerate… I don’t mind anyone’s rhymes, here; Dino’s on tha 3^rd verse, so shouldn’t he be behind Bear on tha ID? My Rating: 4.1


½time: Above average, for me; 3.9 for tha current CD rating…


09. “Keep Smokin’” Feat. Jack (of Down Bad) & Pada
>>> A.K.A. Jack Da Rippa; I thought that’s who I heard in tha beginning… I was gonna say, at least it’s an attempt for a better feature than other CDs I previously reviewed, but most people are tha same wit their buzzes and shit. I like how Jack says, “Dat last gram I had? Psst, sold it!” You already know it’s ‘bout dis smokin’ shit! Was kinda worried ‘bout tha 7:12 length, but it ain’t bad. LOL @ when it says, “Man, I’m loaded in dis bitch,” ‘round 3:40, it sounds like I can hear pasting (wit hearin’ a sound effect before tha repeatin’). But yea, definitely a jam; you know dat Jack actually has more character and energy when he raps/sings! My Rating: 4.3


10. “On My Mind”
>>> Now, a shorter song; good transition, and it sounds like a song ta make you feel good ‘bout yourself. My Rating: 4.0


11. “Murda Man (Freestyle)”
>>> ROFL, I thought that first few seconds was my voice! It’s ironic ‘cause we’re textin’ right now! But, not a skit, but a freestyle, and it’s pretty gutta; from jail? Where this comin’ from? Good shit; oh, from “tha computer”? My Rating: 4.3


12. “Love In The Studio”
>>> WTF iz this long, pop/boy band vocals shit? Took way too long for me to hear your verse; not much interest for me… My Rating: 1.5


13. “Super Sick” Feat. Neno Tha Don
>>> Now, no beat, but it sounds good in tha beginning… Now, I’m hearin’ tha beat and lyrics; it’s more on tha ‘typical’, 2010s music structure, for me, so I can’t feel this too much. Really, only tha acapella freestyle caught my attention, in tha beginning. I also have to comment your “polo,” too, since dat shit’s nice. My Rating: 2.7


14. “From A Distance”
>>> At least this ain’t no long-ass, boring-ass song; it’s decent and short, tha way a mixtape track should be. Well, I dunno about tha beat, but this ain’t terrible, for me; at least you keepin’ tha rhymes goin’… My Rating: 3.2


15. “The Best”
>>> I don’t think I gon go for this; 4:31 on tha length, no less… Sounds a lil’ for a teenager, for me, wit tha lyrics; ironic for someone that’s older than me… I rather hear some X-rated rhymes, instead. My Rating: 1.6


16. “Spot Light”
>>> Not a good ending for me, wit this “throw up”/’I-sit-in-tha-house-everyday-dwellin’-on-makin’-a-friendship year of 2005 (“Down And Out” beat). Barely any interest, but now, you finally have better/consistent rhymes? Not too powerful of a mix, for me, unfortunately. My Rating: 2.9


Overall: Ehh, it was better in tha beginning, but took a nose-dive toward tha end; not every rapper can create this so-called ‘diversified’ Louisiana music.


Rankings:

15. “Love In The Studio” 1.5
14. “The Best” 1.6

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!

Link To CD: N/A

01. “P.A. Niggaz”

Let’s hear it! >>> Sounds like a tight anthem fa Port Allen, despite it bein’ a Vybe beat! Really likin’ that tha title’s in tha song, frequently; definitely grabbin’ tha listener by tha ear, for Port Allen!! My Rating: 4.3

02. “Thuggin’ & Lovin’ It” Feat. Dude Blitz & Dee Dee

>>> Must be tha same singer from tha “cook” song, from tha Jay Bin Laden CD? Sounds catchy, this time, wit tha hook! Good job wit tha verses, too; kinda feels like a musical glance at Port Allen, at its finest! My Rating: 4.1

03. “Good Nite”

Now, it’s not a compound word; produced by Young Jack, as I previously heard! My Current Rating: 4.2

04. “Lay ‘Em Down”

A solo from Regal… Oh yea, I recognize this title; tha “9millie” song, lol. My Current Rating: 3.7

05. “Deuces Freestyle”

Solo from M.A., here. >>> I hear M.A.’s mixtape title, The Rap Derek Lewis, in tha intro; guess I gon hear this tomorrow, when I review M.A.’s solo mixtape? Either way, “Deuces” beat or not, this ain’t too bad; M.A. seems ta have nearly tha same voice as Jay Regal, these dayz… Rhymes are barely passin’ tha ‘aight’ mark fa me, here, but more on tha boring side, overall… Also, since it’s a “freestyle”, it shouldn’t be tha same length as tha original! My Rating: 3.1

06. “Deez Streets” Feat. 20

Wonder who this 20 dude iz… >>> Really think y’all “die in deez streets”? :( Hope not; can’t even think about death!! Still, I’m feelin’ these “streets”-type rhymes; keep this shit up! My Rating: 3.9

07. “Murder Rate”

>>> This iz a ‘repeat’ beat for me (Vybe); played a song who made their own song off of this, back in ’09, so I already had a main song off this beat, which makes my interest real low… For this, I’m likin’ tha ‘gun’ rhymes, once again; I really like how y’all paint a picture of your streets. M.A. on tha 2^nd verse? Catchy flow; I’ll give it credit, includin’ tha nice rhymes. My Rating: 3.5

08. “Paper Chase” Feat. Redd

>>> Because it’s a Vybe beat, this iz okay, overall; glad it’s a ‘mission’-type song! I like tha “lunch line” line; all about them memories! Redd does a nice job wit his contributions, too; gotta feel how he comin’ through, on tha track! My Rating: 3.6

½time: A 3.8-rated CD, currently.

09. “Get It Girl”

>>> Really would like to hear original beats; this iz decent, but nothin’ I’d really pay attention to… My Rating: 3.0

10. “Game Tight”
Production from Drako? >>> Sounds remakey…; luckily, it ain’t too bad, and tackles a good subject, since it’s all about tha “real.” Whether this iz remakey or not, I’m likin’ it, and think it’s a nice production. Rhymes are soundin’ good, of course, I can dig it… My Rating: 4.0

11. “Fuck U Pay Me” (Tune Feat. J.A.P.A.N.)

Not sure what you mean by “tune” in tha ID… New production from Biggs, here… >>> Sounds like a quiet version of “Wipe Me Down”, a lil’; not bad… Oh wait, do you mean Tune Feat. J.A.P.A.N. for tha ID ‘cause it’s actually y’all CD? Okay, I hear, and I’m correct; my bad for tha confusion. I have to say, this sounds like a nice, underground, underground song for tha underground, lol. My Rating: 3.8

12. “Livin’ My Life” Feat. S.B.R. Boy

Speakin’ of S.B.R. Boy, what happened to his Facebook? Ducked off? >>> Beginning sounds okay; thought I’d hear a lil’ more tightness from S.B.R., but it’s all good, still. Kinda long on tha length, but I dunno what ta say…; you already know dat you guys hold it down for tha streetz. My Rating: 3.6

13. “D’Boys”

Lil’ Wubb on tha beat; I remember this. However, when hearin’ tha beginning, right now, “Raw Ha Records”? “Hood Official Vol. 1;” fa real? I remember that CD gettin’ pushed back/cancelled ‘cause I didn’t even have an editing program, at tha time, lol; weird dedication! My Current Rating: 4.2

14. “Street Shit” Feat. Dino

>>> Nothin’ really special wit tha sound and how this sounds wit tha 1^st verse… Damn @ Jay Regal for takin’ “a baby;” crazy! Ooh, Dino has a good voice fa this; nice job, too! My Rating: 3.2

15. “Fashion Show” Feat. Dino

Anotha production from Drako, here… >>> Nothin’ really special between tha beat and what’s goin’ on wit tha song… For some reason, tha features seem to be catchin’ my attention more; good job, Dino, endin’ this off. My Rating: 2.9

16. “Leave Me Lonely” Feat. Redd & Tut

>>> Wow, weak beat start for J.A.P.A.N.! :( Now, tha rhymes are soundin’ betta, smh? Rhymes are okay, but they’re, like, non-Louisiana for me, wit this sound. M.A. sounds good wit his shit, here, so I’ll give him some credit… My Rating: 2.5

17. “I Ain’t Fuckin’ Wit Cha” Feat. Pada & Bear

>>> Catchy for an ending song; not bad… Likin’ tha 1^st verse wit tha flow, voice, and shit goin’ on, here… Tha 2^nd verse iz nice, too; looks like tha features help, once again! My Rating: 3.8

Overall: Ehh, could’ve been a lil’ betta, but I guess tha original beats’ll come soon…

Review #1,123: Jay Regal "Jay Bin Laden"

Reviewed on 1.18.2012 (Review #1,123)

Already up to my 8^th review today? That doesn’t seem typical, but I guess I seem motivated ‘cause I’m mad!! It’s Jay Regal Jay Bin Laden, uh-uh-uh-oh, lol! Still wit Jungle Records, but this ain’t a Raw Ha release (that’s how long it’s been since I have heard a Jay Regal CD). Start Time: 8:46 PM | End Time: 9:23 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.

Link To CD: N/A

01. “Curtain Call”

>>> I think this iz a good-soundin’ intro track; nice rhymes, within your perspective… My Rating: 4.0

02. “Shotgun” Feat. Pada

>>> Hook and beat sounds good ta hear; good shit fa tha streetz… I’m likin’ your street-type rhymes, here, when it comes ta how you handle your “shotgun,” ya feel me? Pada’s on tha 2^nd verse and he sounds a lil’ like a white dude, wit how he sounds; okay, but not much energy goin’ on in tha flow… My Rating: 3.7

03. “Goodnite”

Or, not as a compound word (“Good Nite”); let’s hear this J.A.P.A.N. single… >>> This sounds like single material; sounds like one of y’all’s doin’ tha damn thang on tha hook! I think it’s M.A. on tha hook? Nearly tha same voice, but whateva, this iz hot… Tha 1^st verse iz good; it’s all about not carin’ about others, which iz what I’m now developin’! Yea, here you are on tha 2^nd verse, Regal; you know what it iz…/I don’t need ta say much… My Rating: 4.2

04. “Lay ‘Em Down”

>>> Anotha “gun” anthem; you can pull it off, unlike others. Speakin’ of a “9millie,” I had one to me four years ago, on January 23, as a “joke,” smh! Good, catchy verses fa your streetz, here. My Rating: 3.7

05. “Break It Down” Feat. Dude Blitz & DeeDee

>>> Wasn’t expectin’, or anticipatin’ tha singin’, but if this iz about cuttin’ “work,” then I’ll let it slide… LOL, you “count a lotta 100’s,” huh? How consistent are you wit it? Hope you can do some of my services, soon… What’s up wit these random kids in tha background? Soundin’ a lil’ too much… Dude Blitz sounds not bad on tha 2^nd verse; glad he’s makin’ an appearance, at least… My Rating: 3.8

06. “What You Mean I Ain’t Gangsta”

Different spellin’, this time… Sorry, but this iz complete novelty, bad luck music for me, now; R.I.P. 2009, forever! My Current Rating: 4.3

07. “Chicks In The Living Room” Feat. Dino

I don’t remember Dino’s name all capitalized… >>> Nas sample in tha hook; sounds a lil’ catchy, as it repeats, so I don’t mind too much… Good shit from you in tha 1^st verse; keep this shit goin’, Regal. Dino sounds nice on tha 2^nd verse, too… My Rating: 4.2

08. “Caked Up” Feat. M.A.

>>> Not tha kids in tha background, again! What iz this “best kept secret” shit? :confused Thumbs up fa tha “puff and ride slow music,” Regal. Tha beat’s soundin’ a lil’ borin’, here and there, but it’s not too bad for a song, overall…; tha hook sounds regular, too. Let’s see M.A.—oh wait, that’s you on tha 2^nd verse? I guess I was too in-tune ta what I sayin’, and figured dat he would be on tha 2^nd verse or somethin’. Either way, good job wit your “caked up” lyrics, J. My Rating: 3.7

½time: Good CD, it seems like, although I feel more in a decent mode; 4.0 for tha CD rating, currently!

09. “Clickhouse” Feat. Redd & Pada

>>> Sounds catchy wit this “and, I’ma break it off” shit repeatin’ in tha hook, includin’ tha “clickhouse” shit. I’m likin’ tha shit you’re spittin’ in tha 1^st verse, Regal; nice job wit tha representin’… Hearin’ this 2^nd verse, and it’s okay, for a more-unknown rapper… My Rating: 3.9

10. “Psycho”

>>> An intro skit goin’ on, here… After 1:21, tha hook’s finally here, and it sounds good, except for a need of energy… If you really went “psycho” wit how your voice would sound on here, that would be awesome! But, for this, it’s okay; thought I’d hear more than one verse, but it’s cool… “Drag queen killa, I be dressed up as them hoes be;” whoa! My Rating: 3.5

11. “Holding”

>>> More short music, which sounds good. Sounds like you’re “holding” a crown or somethin’, based off your status, here; not bad… My Rating: 3.6

12. “Say My Name Right”

>>> Sounds like a catchy song; who doesn’t know how ta pronounce “Jay Regal,” right? Catchiness, includin’ some decent rhymes… My Rating: 3.7

13. “Just Waitin’” Feat. Lil’ Wubb

He dropped tha “Lil’”? Prolly not… Too bad he didn’t have a passion for me, since he only made one outgoin’ call ta me, back on July 18, 2009, when I didn’t have service? Thank God I ain’t that passionate about phone calls, anymore! >>> Must be Wubb in tha beginning; okay… Not really anything catchy comin’ outta tha hook, unfortunately; let’s see what you got ta offer on tha 2^nd verse… It’s okay; I don’t really have anything to really say about it. My Rating: 3.4

14. “Louder”

>>> Sounds okay; I don’t really have anything ta say ‘bout this one, too… Well, I’ll say that I like when it says, “louder,” lol! My Rating: 3.8

15. “Syrupee Flow”

>>> I dunno how I can handle this different style wit tha beginning beat; lemme hear what you got wit tha verses… Okay, nice “high” anthem; I’ll give it some credit… My Rating: 3.7

16. “D-Boys”

Tha 2^nd single from J.A.P.A.N.; lemme hear it… >>> Yea, this sounds catchy; betta than most of tha shit on here, so far… You know it’s catchy when you say, “D-Boys! D-Boys,” ya feel me? Yup, “got hard, got soft, got blunts;” Jay Regal, tha man!! Nice job wit tha 2^nd verse, too; good, catchy ‘single’! My Rating: 4.2

17. “Make ‘Em Mad”

>>> Damn, tha kids are in tha background, again! :td This sounds like a decent joint; what’s up wit all tha decent music? I thought you had consistent, tight music? Guess it’s time for Raw Ha Records to bring you back? My Rating: 3.6

Overall: Ehh, it was a lil’ above average, but not tha shit I was used to, back in ’09…

Reviewed on 9.05.2009 (Review #302)

Ya boy FrankieThaLuckyDog in tha buildin’ right nah, and it’s Saturday. Got dis new mixtape from my boyz J.A.P.A.N. (which I’m assumin’ tha “P.A.” = Port Allen?). My dawg Jay Regal’s a part of dis group outta Port Allen, LA, so you KNOW this gon be on dat official gangsta type shit, ya dig!! Tryna look at tha front cover, and it’s a lil’ too blurry… Good thing tha ID’s are on DatPiff and on tha filenames (but not on tha mp3 infos). I’ll be DEFINITELY lookin’ forward ta this though, so here goes my review fa J.A.P.A.N. “City Champs Vol. 3”! Start Time: 4:27 PM | End Time: 6:06 PM

© 2009 CD Review (Review #302) reviewed on 9.05.2009 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.


01. “On Tha Radio”
Tha start to tha mixtape iz here! Let’s hear how y’all do!! >>> I heard Boosie in tha beginning, and now, it’s a bunch of shit switched ta some “popped a pill” shit; nice intro so far! Feelin’ all tha Port Allen pieces in tha beginning. Glad it sounded like tha radio was changin’ and shit like that too! My Rating: N/A


02. “Jump Stupid” Feat. Dude Blitz & Reno Da Gutta
This should be a WILD-ASS joint!! Lookin’ forward ta err-body!!! >>> Sounds nice and wild in tha hook; you KNOW I’m feelin’ it!! Tha 1st verse iz soundin’ great wit dat real hood shit goin’ on! NICE “pop ‘em 2 by 2 keep me energized” part in tha 1st verse; str8 PURE Louisiana shit right here!! Dat was (I believe) Dude Blitz on tha 1st verse, and Reno’s on tha 2nd verse, all “powered up” on dis shit to tha fullest! “Get shots like a bartender;” nice line right there from Reno! Need “a fight song,” so I’m glad y’all (especially Reno on tha 2nd verse) “made dis a fight song!” Still keepin’ dis jungle-ass music continuous on tha 3rd verse, doin’ tha damn thang!! My dawg Jay Regal doin’ a NICE job on tha 4th verse here, as he’s SOOOOOOO “retontoe!!” I luv his “I know you fulla dem pillz” part, as well as “out here sagged out;” he TOOOOOO hood wit his hood shit!! REAL GLAD I’m real cool wit him, and doin’ buku shit fa him, ya dig!! Luv tha acapella at tha end, ESPECIALLY tha “jump stupid, nigga, nigga” part (where “nigga” iz said 2x back 2 back)!! Jay Regal had tha best verse followed by Reno! My Rating: 4.7


03. “Go Home Wit Her”
Should be interesting. >>> LOL @ tha beat start; lookin’ like dis gon be good! Pretty good hook; you KNOW I go for tha 2nd ½ of tha hook, where it’s dat typical, repetitiveness of tha title type of BR hook! Tha 1st verse here soundin’ like tha sex attraction iz goin’ GREAT wit dis street beat (nice mix)!! Great flow on tha 1st verse, doin’ tha damn thang! I hear my boy Jay Regal on tha 2nd ½ of tha 1st verse; glad there’s 2 ½’s!! He REALLY inta dis gurl right here, explainin’ tha visuals REAL GOOD!! Nice long 1st verse!! Let’s see what’s next in tha song… Oh, just a long verse. It all good ‘cause it was nice, and my big dawg Regal talkin’ on tha endin’, just keepin’ it consistent wit tha topic too! My Rating: 4.4


04. “Down Bad” (Jay Regal Solo)
Yea!!! My boy goin’ solo (and “down bad”) on dis shit right here; REALLY lookin’ forward!!! >>> We got da “Tuck Ya Ice” beat here; let’s see how raw he comes on dis… Hook was pretty good, but tha 1st verse REALLY on dat raw gangsta shit!! Your heart “colder than a slurpie;” feelin’ dat line, ESPECIALLY da “gold grill wit da saggin’ pants!” You REALLY are a TRUE BLESSING, big dawg!! You KNOW I hold you down wit dis shit all day, ya dig!! I hope we talk on tha phone again real soon! Tha 2nd verse DEFINITELY raw wit tha “swiss blade” and all those weapon-type lyrics!! I like how tha voice sounds in tha 2nd verse; sounds like a backin’ voice ta make your vocals RAWER!! Tha 3rd verse iz DEFINITELY startin’ off gangsta wit tha “loaded” part, as well as your “bad nerves;” nothin’ but dat HOT, HOT, HOT SHIT!!! Yea, you DEFINITELY are “sick, and you ain’t talkin’ ‘bout your stomach;” I feel ya. Luvin’ tha “I’ll bend you, and flip you” in tha hook!! Must’ve been one of tha BEST ratings I’ve eva gave on a jacked beat (if not, then it in a looooooong time)!!! My Rating: 4.8


05. “Off Tha Strength” (M.A. Solo)
Got da “th” reversed on tha DatPiff ID… Anyway, BATTLE OF THA SOLO JOINTZ, LOL!!! This should be ANOTHA REAL NICE ONE wit 4:12 on tha length, so let’s see how dat boy M.A. does!! >>> DJ Black Magic in tha beginning (wit tha intro), and this kinda Baton Rouge vs. Baton Rouge ta me ‘cause I heard dis on Yung Yola & D.$.G.’s “99 Wayz 2 Grind” mixtape (tha beat on “Gotta Plan”). Either way, this should be good; likin’ tha hook, and tha 1st verse iz off ta a good start! I REALLY like dat title (especially wit “strength” in it)! Glad you said “Jay got us a hit, mane;” aren’t y’all glad fa Jay Regal? Nice job on dat 1st verse, and yea, dat hook iz DEFINITELY on sum good shit! Interestin’ “I ain’t gotta pay a cent” part multiple times in tha hook! Tha 2nd verse soundin’ on dat good shit too, addin’ sum gangsta attributes ta it too!! I like how he just said, “dawg;” that’s watz good! I like tha “Baton Rouge/Baton Rouge” part around 2:30; TIGHT rhymes continuin’!! Nuttin’ but dat STREET SHIT in tha 3rd verse; it ain’t stoppin’!!! REAL NICE song right here; ANOTHA gr8 solo!!! My Rating: 4.6


06. Duck Mission Pt. 1
Fuck! Only 1:21 on tha length? This must be a skit or somethin’? If it a skit, then I’m DEFINITELY lookin’ forward ta it!! If it a song, then we’ll see what happens… >>> Tha gurl sounds like a duck, LMFAO!! LOL @ all tha “shiiit”s! Yea, dis a skit, and although it ain’t any of y’all sayin’ anythang, at least it pretty entertainin’!! LOL @ tha “(225) 555-CALL ME” phone numba! REAL NICE lil’ intermission from tha mixtape!! My Rating: N/A


07. “Get It How Ya Live” Feat. Reno Da Gutta
ANOTHA bound ta be REAL GR8 collab/joint!!! >>> Anotha Baton Rouge vs. Baton Rouge beat (2 in a row) ‘cause I heard this as Southpaw & Rackley “Allstars”, but also one of Lil’ Boxx’s song on his “Bring The Pain Mixtape Vol. 1” mixtape. Either way, nice hook, and Jay, you doin’ tha damn thang on tha hook and tha 1st verse! Pretty good 1st verse, and tha hook (of course) iz tha truth when it comes to dis Rap shit! Tha 2nd verse sounds like it really on its street business shit! Glad he “tryna fill his stomach up” ‘cause dat’s what you gotta do!! Reno comin’ through NICE on tha 3rd verse, str8 street shit!! Did he give a shout out ta Scoob (meanin’ Big Scoob) on tha 3rd verse? If so, then that’s DEFINITELY a plus ‘cause dat my boy right there; Jiggalators to tha fullest!! Nice, strong rhymes here, as they’re ALL listenable!! My Rating: 4.3


08. “Fli As A Pelican” Feat. Dino
Let’s see what we got here… >>> Sounds like dis gon be REAL “fli” wit all tha “wings” shit in tha beginning! Interestin’ hook, as it’s flyable at ALL TIMES!! Real catchy wit tha 2nd ½ of it, where tha background dude providin’ vocals too! I like tha “ya heard” part, even wit it rhymin’ wit “bird” on tha 1st verse! Definitely inta this shit, as ANY of dis shit on dis CD ALL GREAT QUALITY!!! Nice job on da 1st verse; glad there’s 2 more verses!! Tha 2nd verse sounds betta here; I like tha voice! Spittin’ those Jungle Records type rhymes, doin’ tha damn thang!! I can tell ya that I SO FUCKIN’ LUV FUCKIN’ BATON ROUGE MUSIC SO FUCKIN’ MUCH!!!!!!!!!! Yea, my fuckin’ boy Regal on tha 3rd verse; everything about him and what he spits iz tha FUCKIN’ SHIT!!! DEFINITELY felt his verse, ESPECIALLY “tha boyz should have wings” part ta end tha verse! My Rating: 4.5


09. “Rapper Wife”
LOL @ tha title! Boy, I luv these titles!! This should basically continue where tha ratings left off!! >>> LOL @ tha beat choice. It’s… Jay-Z “I’m Feelin’ It”. It’ll prolly be good ‘cause we got a GR8 selection of people! Speakin’ of a GR8 selection, how can ya front wit Jay Regal on tha 1st verse? Pretty good 1st verse, although it felt like it breezed by like it was nothin’. I like how tha hook sounds… oh wait, this tha 2nd verse now. Good rappin’ in tha 2nd verse. Not much ta say, but y’all doin’ ya thang. LOL, a phone call at 2:32! Jay Regal on tha phone, as tha beat comes back. Good conversation; should’ve been louder than tha beat (meanin’ tha beat should’ve been lowered). I hear tha title in tha hook now, and it sounds cool. My Rating: 3.8


10. “Like U Want It” Feat. Dog
Almost to tha ½ point… let’s see how we gon put it down b4 we get there… >>> Gonna give Dog one more chance on Labor Day ta see if he wants ta do business wit me ‘cause he pretty bad when it comes ta business (how you delay me 6 months ta get me your music?). So, because I don’t know his exact voice, I’m gonna have ta limit on what I say on here ‘cause I don’t want him gettin’ all my words! Okay, if he on tha 2nd verse, then tha 1st verse was pretty good. Jay, talk sum sense inta him since you fuck wit him! He needs ta think of me on tha outside of a conversation! Jay on tha 3rd verse, doin’ a NICE job on dis shit right here!! How can anyone hate on what he sayin’? He just has that GREAT street flow, as well as not givin’ a fuck about tha next person tryna be betta than him! Nice song right here though! My Rating: 4.3


½time: GREAT CD so far, as I’m DEFINITELY feelin’ pretty much tha whole entire thang!! Y’all boyz REALLY do tha damn thang when it comes to dis street music! Regal ALWAYS keepin’ tha hoods NICE and fulla dat street shit!! Keep doin’ ya thang, and although we got 10 songs left, tha average CD rating iz currently a REAL NICE 4.4, so keep up tha gr8 work!!!


11. Duck Mission Pt. 2
Uh oh! Startin’ off tha 2nd ½ wit anotha duck!! REALLY lookin’ forward ta this, as I think it gon make me LMAO!! >>> Sounds like they in tha club… LOL @ tha duck sayin’ “shit yea!” How can somebody NOT include a duck on tha list? Uh oh, tha phone ringin’… Gettin’ on tha phone, duck style!! LOL @ tha “(225) JAY-REGAL” phone numba this time! Although I didn’t LMAO, this was still good; tha otha one was betta though! My Rating: N/A


12. “Dat Lyfe” Feat. Temp
This should be good… Expectin’ it ta be on a REAL street level!! >>> Sounds like a bad beat choice here, so I can’t really get inta this so far. Catchy hook, includin’ tha title, but aight song so far. Decent rappin’ in tha 1st verse; I don’t seek much interest. I like tha “movie/credits roll” part towards tha end of tha verse though. Regal doin’ a pretty good job on tha lyrics here on tha 2nd verse; sad that there’s “no mo” of lots of thangz. A lil’ betta now that I heard Regal’s part. My Rating: 3.7


13. “We Tha Truth”
Short song (2:47); let’s see what y’all got… >>> Somebody’s beat (tryna think)… Sounds like Grand Hustle, but tha beginning so far iz decent. Not bad on tha 1st verse, still deliverin’ dat good shit. Tha hook iz pretty good; like when tha title iz said. Yea, Jay Regal on tha 2nd verse!! Soundin’ catchy wit tha “put tha money in tha bagggg” part, as well as tha “money on tha beddd” part too! Mega catchy from dat boy Regal this time! REAL NICE job from Jay Regal, makin’ me like tha song more!! My Rating: 3.9


14. “Wing Spand” (Jay Regal Solo)
YES, ANOTHA JAY REGAL SOLO SONG!!!!! LUV THA TITLE TOO!!! >>> LMAO @ tha “My Drink N My 2 Step” beat, but that intro was just SOOOOOO GR8 wit tha “out here smellin’ like a pound of weed” part; REAL NICE intro!!! He said it again; iz that a part of tha hook?!? TOO TIGHT!!! Jay Regal DIES for sum wings!! You’re past polo, lol? You said, “y’all still rockin’ polo.” You’re on your alligator logo shit, lol. LMAO @ “toss a bitch ta tha side like she sum old shoes;” REALLY liked dat line!!! “Port Allen where niggaz’ll pull a stack out;” err-body got money there, huh? That’s a thumbs up! Would like ta see sum of dat money (from err-body else) get in my hands so I can do commercials and shit fa otha Port Allen people! Tha hook iz just TOO GREAT!!! From tha “weed” part to tha “wings” part, it’s just EXTREMELY luvable!!!!! Too bad it was only 1 verse, but it DEFINITELY held it down!! You REALLY do tha damn thang on these jacked beats!!! Hearin’ shout outs at tha end… Lookin’ forward ta hearin’ my name shouted out in tha future wit a future song, ya dig!! My Rating: 4.7


15. “I Like ‘Em” (M.A. Solo)
Yea!! Dat boy M.A. doin’ anotha solo joint on here!! Wonder what beat he uses… Has ta be somethin’ REAL anticipatin’ ta hear!!! >>> LOL, not anticipatin’ fa me (since it’s dat Ludacris & Bobby Valentino “Pimpin’ All Over The World” beat). Howeva, as much as y’all do REAL GOOD on beats like “My Drink N My 2 Step”, it should be REAL NICE, regardless!! Well, hearin’ tha hook, and it sounds good. Not close to tha Jay Regal one previously, but it sounds like there’s just lots of pluses here (wit all tha “I like ___” parts), so that’s watz good! Decent 1st verse; would’ve wanted ta hear a street song from you though. Decent 2nd verse too; I can’t say much here. Even a 3rd verse on here, still followin’ from tha 1st 2 verses. I think I wrote enough fa dis song. My Rating: 3.4


16. “Smoke Out” Feat. Manno
Will dis be tha most anticipated joint on here (wit a NICE 5:15 on tha length)? REALLY lookin’ forward ta dis one, ESPECIALLY Jay Regal’s drugged up rhymes!!! >>> I hear a lighter in tha beginning, as well as blowin’ sum smoke. Yea, it my boy Jay Regal in tha beginning, blowin’ dat smoke!! LOL @ tha music in tha beginning! Dat organ reminds me of tha Yoshi race from Super Mario RPG!! REAL GREAT soundin’, although I can barely hear tha vocals. I’m SURE it still REAL NICE, especially tha “la la la la…” shit at tha end of tha hook too! You KNOW a song like dis HAD ta start off wit Jay Regal!! Yea, “dis shit iz retarded!” Just FUCKIN’ LUV DAT BEAT!!!!! Y’all REAL great wit pickin’ tha beats ta rap on and shit!!! NICE JOB on tha 1st verse!! Wait ‘til I make a commercial fa dis CD!! Dat shit gon be NICE!! Tha 2nd verse ain’t playin’ wit dat bullshit ‘cause it keepin’ dis shit hot, although I still can’t hear tha vocals that good again. Good shit on tha 2nd verse, as I felt tha voice. That beat just TAKIN’ OVA THA SONG!!! Not just personally, but REALLY!! Now, tha beat sounds like sound effects bouncin’ back ‘n’ forth on tha wall, lol! Pretty good soundin’ on tha 3rd verse, although there was a vocal volume problem again. I guess it was good, but it was hard ta judge what was goin’ on… Glad Jay Regal on tha endin’; he soundin’ REAL, REAL GR8 here wit tha smoke-type lyrics!!! That beat don’t wanna stop!! Still coverin’ tha vocals! My Rating: 4.6


17. Duck Mission Pt. 3
“Tu tu le duck,” LMAO? I made up tha 1st 3 words (as I quoted it too), as when I’m jokin’ around about an object, I say “tu tu le *insert noun*,” lol! Again, I’m REALLY lookin’ forward ta this one!! Which phone numba will be givin’ out now? “(225) 225-JUNGLE,” lol? >>> Still sounds like they outside tha club, and tha phone already blowin’ up! Oh wait, dis tha continuation from tha last one ‘cause they just called Jay Regal!! Sounds kinda random dis time, but Jay Regal prolly like, “WTF?,” in his head! Too duckful!! Luv tha curses that are goin’ on too! My Rating: N/A


18. “Turn It Up” Feat. Showtime
Should be good; 4:41 on tha length!!! >>> A new production, and LOL @ tha “Shoulder Lean” wit tha “1st, I let my wheels spin” sample for like tha 1,000,000th time! This sounds good, and should sound betta wit tha verses!! Here’s tha 1st verse here, comin’ through pretty strong wit tha car lyrics, lol! Pretty good rhymes right there ta let tha joint roll through. Now, my dawg Jay Regal on tha 2nd verse, doin’ tha damn thang wit tha jiggalatin’ lyrics!! I now know tha word “loratabs,” so now, I gotta see what they look like. You KNOW you do tha damn thang wit your rhymes; I feel like NO ONE can TOUCH Jay Regal in Port Allen!! YOU’LL LIVE FA’EVA!!!!! Here’s tha featured person on tha 3rd verse, soundin’ pretty cool wit his voice fa dis shit. You KNOW I luv my black people, ya heard me! Pretty good verse; nice song overall. My Rating: 4.3


19. “Dat P Dot”
I thought this had ta do wit pot or somethin’, lol. But, wit 4:52, it should be ANOTHA REAL NICE joint!!!!! >>> Sounds like tha beat soundin’ NICE fa y’all!! Jay Regal startin’ off wit tha hook, and it sounds REAL NICE!!! Catchy Port Allen shit right here wit FULL street credit!!! Fa y’all readin’ Jay Regal, look @ his “forearm” so y’all can see his Port Allen tat! I luv how he said “bruh” towards tha end of tha 1st verse. Really, I just CAN’T BELIEVE I’m on Jay Regal’s team; it means SOOOOO much ta me!!! Tha 2nd ½ of tha 1st verse sounded good too; y’all a GR8 team when it comes ta dis shit, ya dig!! Huh? It mixed at 1:55? At least Jay Regal definin’ “P.A.N. Up” right here, as “Port Allen Niggaz Up!” Yea, tha joint resumed at 2:15! Tha damn thang comin’ through on tha 2nd verse wit tha extended gangsta lyrics here!! Oh shit, dat Jay Regal again!! Shit yea!!! I thought dat was tha otha J.A.P.A.N. dude on his side (that sounds like him)! Now, I hear tha otha dude on tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse. I keep fa’gettin’ there’s 2 ½’s in tha verses; nice shit here!! Luvin’ all tha gangsta lyrics, as they don’t stop!! Nice endin’ too on dis shit. Also, nice acapella endin’ wit tha “I ain’t hatin’ on ya hood, I’m just tryna put P.A.N. up” part! My Rating: 4.5


20. “West Side Heat” Feat. Heata Boy, Dude Blitz, Dog, Main Line, Rako, Fam & Dino
LOL @ how long dis iz (6:40 on tha length too)!! All 7 featured people fit on 1 line wit tha title on Word!! That’s tight, and dis should be a continuous joint ta end wit!!! >>> Yea, Jay Regal talkin’ in tha beginning of dis, doin’ tha damn thang here, as he launchin’ dis joint right here! Tha hook soundin’ nice wit dat beat! EXTREMELY “P.A.N.’d Up” here!!!!! Tha 1st ½ of tha 1st verse was nice; good job. Tha 2nd ½ here soundin’ aight. Good rhymes in dis part of tha verse here; tha voice iz decent. Dude Blitz here on tha 1st ½ of tha 2nd verse, doin’ a nice job wit dis street shit! I like tha endin’ wit tha “my bread, I’m tryna elevate” part. Tha 2nd ½ was aight; nice job on dis shit. Okay 1st ½ of tha 3rd verse too. Always comin’ through wit dis Port Allen shit, as tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse delivered it a nice way! Jay Regal TOO raw on tha hook!!! Tha 1st ½ of tha 4th verse was cool; nice shit right there, includin’ tha P.A. lyrics! Tha 2nd ½ of tha 4th verse iz DEFINITELY nice! Likin’ tha flow, as well as tha cool-ass hood voice too! What happened at 5:23? It’s skippin’ and shit? Iz this real? Sounds shitty. I’m gonna rewind it so I can try ta review dat part… It sounds like Jay Regal would’ve been on tha 1st ½ of tha 5th verse, along wit someone else I think? It sounds like a part of a verse, then tha hook, and then tha same format. It sounded a lil’ tight too. Now, wit approximately 18 seconds left, it’s wit tha “Turn It Up” beat/sample again; what’s goin’ on wit dis ending? LOL… My Rating: 4.4


Overall: Hate ta see it end, but Regal should be back soon wit mo shit, ya dig! What’s up wit tha “315 Village St.” CD that was ‘pose ta drop 8 dayz ago? I hit up S.B.R., but no response? I wanted ta do tha review & commercial fa it REAL fast, but he just like vanished or somethin’… Anyway, DEFINITELY sum good shit right here dat should show err-body dat Port Allen iz tha shit when it comes ta sum gangsta BR shit!! Keep doin’ ya thang, and I hope all y’all like dis review, as well as tha future commercial!!
