Time
fa mo Shizz Dollah! Here goes my
review fa his 2013 CD (I forgot to mention, tha previous CD I just reviewed was
also from 2013), N.I.K.E., Vol. 1 (Nigga I Kill Everything) (Hosted by DJ PK1),
courtesy of Money Cirkle Entertainment & The Non-Fiction Community… Start Time: 8:47 PM | End Time: 9:12 PM
Disclaimer: I rate each song from 1.0
– 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion!
I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care how lyrical you are, as long
as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and
then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings. If a
song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6
rating, I pretty much really love it,
as it’s considered mindblowin’ when I
hear it! Any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type
before “ >>> “ iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song; anything
after I type “ >>> “ iz what I think of tha song while I’m listening
to it. If you sound like anything too mainstream for me, have auto-tune in your
vocals, or talk about nothin’ but money and hoes (which I consider ‘typical’
topics), I’m not buyin’ it!
01.
“Nigga I Kill Everything”
>>> DJ PK1 on tha hosting, here… Nice lil’ intro and now, a
darker-soundin’ beat wit your consistent rhymes; nice… My Rating: 4.1
02.
“Work 4 Me”
You
on da beat… >>> Sounds like a familiar-soundin’ bounce vibe or
somethin’; good lil’ hook from you… Sounds like you livin’ a good life wit how
you comin’ through on tha verses; nice vibe… My Rating: 4.2
03.
“Pills & Cocaine” feat. 1Hitta, Lil’ One The Champ & Spitta
Keepin’
your beats goin’… >>> Sounds like a familiar-soundin’ beat (like
Mystikal “Here I Go” or somethin’); sounds good wit you on tha 1st
verse… Tha hook sounds like a good mixin’ blend, to go wit tha mixin’ of this
mixtape… Hearin’ Lil’ One on tha 2nd verse and it sounds
good/consistent; nice job… Spit on tha 3rd verse, luvin’ tha “purp,”
of course! Great job collabin’ wit tha Dollah & vice versa! My Rating: 3.8
04.
“Do This Fo Real”
Mo original productions… >>> Sounds like a good/catchy lil’ hook wit
how you repeat tha title; nice… Rhymes sound catchy fa a club vibe; not bad,
overall… Kinda seems like it neva ends, for havin’ no features on this; still
decent, regardless… My Rating: 3.7
05.
“Ching Ching” feat. Lil’ One (Bad Azz Ent.)
D. Jackson
doin’ this beat… >>> Sounds like a catchy-soundin’ hook, despite me
not goin’ for tha money songs… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it’s
a regular-soundin’ verse; not bad… Couldn’t put tha hook’s voice wit this bein’
this Lil’ One but I guess it iz… Barely have heard this Lil’ One but now,
there’s more chances… Hearin’ him on tha 2nd verse and it ain’t bad;
it passes tha test… My Rating: 3.6
06.
“Paranoid”
Young
Hits beat…! >>> Gotta luv “flyin’ down Airline;” I miss bein’ in BR!
Good lil’ hook but it’s all about confidence! Gotta avoid tha paranoia! Hearin’ what you got ta say on
tha verses and it sounds like you’re tryna escape, as much as you can… Good
state of mind but look at where it brought you (death)… Good, catchy rhymes on
tha 2nd verse, too; you know what it iz… My Rating: 3.7
07.
“Gucci” feat. Lil’ One (Bad Azz Ent.)
D.
Jackson beat! >>>
A decent beat wit a decent/“good” hook, here… Hearin’ you on tha 1st
verse and it sounds like a random, regular-soundin’ undaground song fa da Boot,
here… Nice job wit what Lil’ One bringin’ ta dis track; like this betta than
tha previous one… My Rating: 3.7
½time: Most of this CD’s
slightly above-average, fa me; a 3.8-rated CD, currently. Keep up tha
original-produced tracks, holdin’ it down…!
$hizz,
you on da beat, once again! >>> Good beat you bringin’ to da table,
here; good 1st verse, too… Sounds good wit Lil’ One on tha 2nd
verse, here, strictly luvin’ tha buzz life! “Let’s get retawded-tawded;”
fa’real! Gotta luv Foxx’s buzzed contributions on tha 3rd verse, of
course; unstoppable Milliyone!! My
Rating: 4.2
09.
“One Time”
No producer listed…? Hmm… >>> Nothin’ too-too bad, so far; a lil’
laidback, here… Hearin’ what you got goin’ on and it sounds like you’re tryna
rap faster than what tha beat can handle… Tha pre-hook sounds a lil’ too simple
wit tha title part repeatin’… Tha hook ain’t too bad; like how you ready fa
this “time,” here… My Rating: 3.7
10.
“Bitches Love Me”
>>> Okay, no producer listed ‘cause you goin’ tha Wayne route, wit tha “Love Me” rendition,
here… Too fast wit tha rappin’; sounds too random, ta me… Does it really need
ta be 4:09? Way too long; shoulda cut this jacked-beat track in half! My Rating: 1.5
11.
“Joady” feat. Lil’ One (Bad Azz Ent.) & Foxx
Back
to da original productions from you, here… >>> Sounds more anticipatin’
than tha previous track! You sound like you got tha BR vibe on lock, throughout
tha 1st verse; good job… Tha hook sounds good/catchy; can’t deny it,
I guess? Lil’ One enjoyin’ all this “jumpin’ up & down” shit, via tha 2nd
verse; good job… Gotta save tha best fa last (Foxx)! Foxx-A-Mill comin’ through
on tha 3rd verse, here, strictly holdin’ it down wit his aggression
at all times! My Rating: 4.0
12.
“What Up With That”
Young Hits on this production…! >>> Good lil’ beat; when you talk
about tha “Nolia Clap,” on tha hook, it reminds me that this Hitz production
has a lil’ bit of an N.O. vibe to it, more than a BR one! Hearin’ what you got
ta spit and it sounds like it blends good wit this N.O. street vibe (beat), vs. your BR club
vibe (rhymes); nice! My Rating: 3.8
13.
“Questionaire”
>>>
Sounds like a lil’ bit of an upbeat vibe fa you, here; good lil’ hook… Hearin’
what you got goin’ on throughout tha rappin’ and it sounds like you focused.
Sounds like a few mainstream references, here, from “Nicki,” to Drake, to “50;”
umm… Overall, just a regular-soundin’ track fa me; nothin’ too special but not
bad… My Rating: 3.5
14.
“Freaks” feat. Doe
>>>
Takin’ on this “Freaks”; here we go… Sounds like you’re excited ta rap but
sometimes, it sounds like you got dat Lil’ Wayne flow to ya… Doe got some catchy rhymes
comin’ outta tha 2nd verse; pretty nice, but nicer if it was an
original beat… My Rating: 2.8
15.
“Speed Dial” feat. Dog Da Cutthroata & Foxx
>>>
Beginning with you tryna slow it down doesn’t sound like it gon be fa me… Hook
ehh; it’s just a slow jam, ta me… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and
it—auto-tune? Neva mind… Damn, Dog, too?
Fa’get his verse…! Hope not Foxx… Save a 1.0 from happenin’, F-O-XX…! Looks
like he did! No gay voice, here, but this’ll prolly be tha worst-rated track…
Lol @ “I put her # under ‘Wet Wet;’ I’ono her name;” good goin’, Foxx! Glad
Foxx got lots of good powers ta turn around any environment! My Rating: 1.2
Overall: Seems like most of your
CDs average around tha same scores & shit… I thought this one had it, in
tha beginning, with all tha original production. Then again, you took it a lil’
too far wit tha mainstream/slower vibes & kinda fucked up your ratings.
Either way, there’s one more review I gotta do of yours, most-likely 2morrow;
how will you do?

(Players Only Live Once), courtesy of Money Cirkle, Inc.! Start Time: 5:11 PM | End Time: 5:36 PM

01.
“Intro”
>>> Sounds like you’re slowly dippin’ into a betta vibe than tha A.D.I.D.A.S. vibe, from 2012… Likin’ all
tha “off” shit, on tha hook; glad you got some addictive hooks! Hearin’ you rap
and it’s pretty nice; glad you got all these “raps!” My Rating: 4.2
02.
“Bossed Up”
>>> A slower vibe, here, but keepin’ it G… Hearin’ you rap and it
sounds like you continuin’ tha nice rhymes, once again; good shit. I like how
you said, “Polo socks; my 4-4 cocked;” dope shit! Hearin’ tha hook and it’s
good; nothin’ special-special but nothin’ terrible… My Rating: 3.7
03.
“Feel Good”
>>> Got D. Jackson on this beat, here; let’s see how y’all combine
together… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s good, wit this Jacksontized beat; not bad…
Hearin’ what you got wit tha rhymes and yeah, “Same clothes fa two dayz;” it’s
true! I would say, sometimes, close to a week if you don’t have a job and are
on a non-stop grind… Sounds like you picked up tha pace wit tha flow… I’ono,
not err-body gotta rap fast…! My Rating:
3.5
04.
“Rider”
>>> Anotha D. Jackson beat; glad y’all have chemistry…! Glad you have
“a closet fulla music,” too; definitely a plus! Hearin’ tha hook and it’s a
lil’ catchier than tha previous hook. Hearin’ you rap and it ain’t too bad,
here. Just a regular-soundin’ track ta me, with nothin’ special or nothin’ bad…
My Rating: 3.6
05.
“Beef Shit” feat. Rambeezy
>>>
R.I.P. y’all… Young Hits doin’ this beat; bet it gon be a top-rated one…! Hook
ain’t too bad; I expected a lil’ mo energy wit this Hits beat & y’all…
What’s tha deal wit tha “‘09” shit? Nothin’ great about those ‘Nu$$ie Dead’
times… Hearin’ you rap and it sounds catchy; you know what you doin’…! Glad you
luv tha “Polo;” that’s why you had it “2 The Flo,” back in “’09,” like you
said! I like how Rambeezy got a good representation wit tha collab, here; props
to his gangsta shit! Kinda likin’ how he referenced “Bubba Sparxxx” and his
“Ugly” track, from ’01; random but nice… My
Rating: 4.2
06.
“Noticed You” feat. Young Trayne
>>>
Sounds like a good, catchy, slower vibe, on tha hook; props ta D, again, on
anotha beat! Hearin’ you rap your verse on this and, as always, it sounds like
you continuously able ta hold it down…! Wit Trayne on tha 2nd verse,
he sounds great ta hear, of course; great job wit y’all “Oak”-asses, ya dig? My Rating: 3.8
07.
“Girlfriend”
>>>
Goin’ wit tha online beats or whatevz…? Hearin’ you rap and it sounds like you
tryna get along wit this online track… I’ono, I wouldn’t be cool wit it, lol…
Kinda likin’ tha hook and how you have this “get down” shit on lock, as far as
catchiness… Even tho these kinda tracks don’t sound tha best ta me, I’ll admit:
there’s a decent amount of catchiness, here… My Rating: 3.4
½time: Not too bad, so far; I
thank you got this, as far as this P.O.L.O.
shit goes… A 3.8-rated
CD, currently; let’s see what’s next…
08.
“Freestyle”
>>> Decent rhymes, wit a random beat ta “freestyle” off of… Once it’s
time to “freestyle,” you already know how to adjust yourself…! My Rating: 3.9
09.
“Get At U”
>>> Sounds like a decent, catchy lil’ hook/beat… Well, of course, it
sounds betta when you start repeatin’, “I’m gon get at u (I’m gon get at u)…;”
nice! Like what you’re bringin’ to tha verses, here, strictly comin’ from tha
“goon school,” of course! Kinda long fa a track but it ain’t too bad, overall… My Rating: 3.9
10.
“No Good”
>>> Anotha okay/not-tha-craziest-about-type of song… Tha hook a lil’
catchy and tha beat kinda laidback, here; nothin’ too-too special but let’s see
what else we got goin’ on… Hearin’ you rap and I’m likin’ your rhymes, with tha
“Room Raiders” and all that; “good”
rhymes fa a relationship song… Anotha one a lil’ long—actually, just about tha
same length as tha previous track… My
Rating: 3.7
11.
“Product Of My Environment”
>>> Just a random beat wit a random voice bein’ sampled; nothin’
special fa me… Anotha 4:00+ track; okay rhymes and a decent hook… Nothin’ too
catchy, here; nothin’ much fa me ta say… My
Rating: 3.1
12.
“Stevie Wonder” feat. Doe
>>> Anotha song referrin’ ta “Stevie Wonder”; this boring and
mainstream-soundin’, tho… Not really inta tha flow/rappin’ on this one, as
well; get away from tha mainstream!! Same thang wit Doe; this ain’t fa y’all!
What else should I say…? My Rating: 1.3
13.
“High Freestyle” feat. Lil’ Mop
>>>
Here we go wit mo online beats… Don’t thank I’ll catch on to tha rhymes/flow,
since it sounds like bullshit mainstream music, like tha last track… Great wit
tha “stupid high” part, but on this beat? Naw, Mop… Even tha rappin’ can have
potential to be good, but y’all shoulda had an original Baton Rouge beat on this one! You sound like
you’re tryna have fun wit your rappin’ but fa’real, y’all shoulda picked a
different beat ta rap on… My Rating: 2.5
14.
“Spend The Night”
>>> Anotha random beat wit anotha relationship-style track… Let’s see
how much feedback I’ll leave… Semi-fast rappin’; attemptin’ to be catchy but it
ain’t workin’, here… Kinda bored wit tha “pocket fulla money” shit…; next…! My Rating: 1.7
15.
“Bet That Up” feat. Rambeezy
>>>
Sounds like there’s betta effort in this intro, here, wit tha energy! “Bet that
up!” Enjoyin’ tha hook and what y’all got goin’ on, here… Good shit from Beezy,
comin’ through fa you, here; gangsta at its finest…! A decent lil’ contribution
from you, here; likin’ Beezy betta but it’s still betta than tha previous
tracks…! My Rating: 3.8
Overall: A lil’
boring/watered-down toward tha 2nd ½ but it looked like it started
off to be above-average… Got two mo CDs ta review of yours & I should be
able to get to ‘em sooner or later…
It’s
2019 & it’s my dawg, Doe-Doe’s birthday! Started tha year off as a
top-notch celeb till tha week after, where I got myself involved in some shit.
Now, as I’m tryna get back on tha right path, I have some free time to catch
up. Since tha untimely passing of Shizz Dollah, back on October 26, 2018, I had
some CDs of his that I didn’t get tha chance to review. Now, I have that time,
so here we go: Here goes my review for $hizz
The Chosen
One, Vol. 1, released in 2011 on Foxx’s Milliyone Musik. Start Time: 3:54 PM | End Time: 4:25 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!
01.
“Intro”
>>> A “birthday” release, via “September 28th.” This 2011
so when I say that it sounds “typical,” tha “typical” iz referrin’ ta that
time. With that bein’ said, just regular-soundin’ rappin’, here… My Rating: 3.2
02.
“Local Rappers” feat. Foxx & Dog Da Cutthroata
>>>
A decent lil’ upbeat beat, here. Tha hook ain’t too bad but I’m feelin’ how you
repeat, “Let’s do it, let’s do it; let’s do it, let’s do it…” Hearin’ you on
tha 1st verse and it sounds like you got some random rappin’ goin’
on, at times, despite keepin’ it upbeat… Luv how Foxx iz always upbeat, via tha
2nd verse; good aggression, as always…! As far as Dog bein’ featured
on this, I know y’all made a Milliyone connection, back then. To me, it’s
semi-random, semi-undaground; that’s what I consider him rappin’, here… My Rating: 4.2
03.
“Bob My Head”
>>> Sounds like a way for you to avoidin’ tha dancin’, here; good hook, tho. Crazy wit you and tha “Watson after
Watson,” on tha 1st verse (shout out ta Doe-Doe & his last name;
pilLLLlllLllllLlzzZZZzzZzzzZZ)! Beat nothin’ special, with not much Louisiana sound to it
but I think you did a good job wit this one… Strictly goin’ ham on tha 2nd
verse, here, as far as how far you’re willin’ ta take it! It sux that you took it too far, tha day you passed. It
happened to my brother, it happened to you; it sux…! My Rating: 3.7
04.
“Hit It In The Morning”
>>> A slower track… Not that crazy about this but at least you’re
depictin’ a sex scene, here. I like tha line, “One night stands played out;
Nintendo.” As far as tha hook you chose, I guess it goes wit it… All about dem hitz… My Rating: 3.0
05.
“That Nigga”
>>> Okay beat; kinda a mainstream version of a Louisiana track, I feel like it iz… Sounds
like you’re everything, here… Good, upbeat-soundin’ flow you got goin’ on,
here. “I don’t mean to sound conceited but I feel I’m undefeated;” good line!
You proved that tha night before you died, via your battle & previous
battles! My Rating: 3.4
06.
“Do Me”
>>> Not feelin’ tha “la-la-la-la” vocals in tha background of tha
hook, here; not a good combo wit your NY-soundin’ vibe, here. Hearin’ tha verse
and yeah, not really my style & your Louisiana
rhymes mix weird wit tha NY sound… My
Rating: 2.4
07.
“Relax & Take Notes”
>>> Just like Ball & MJ did, back in ’07, here you are wit tha
Biggie sample. Beat was betta back then; this on a NY tip, once again… Rhymes
ain’t that bad but it’s whateva; nothin’ crazy about… My Rating: 2.8
½time: Not too crazy about this
CD but it iz what it iz, I guess. I know I wasn’t too crazy about your
Milliyone music route, back then; a 3.2-rated CD, so far…
08.
“Son” feat. 1Hitta & Kane
>>>
A lil’ betta than tha previous tracks, here; decent lil’ hook from you. Hearin’
you on tha 1st verse and it sounds good; better attempt, here… Got
tha 2nd verse goin’ on, here (from tha Hitta?) and a betta-soundin’
voice fa dis gangsta shit, here; definitely nice…! Got tha Kane dude on tha 3rd
verse, I believe, and I’m definitely feelin’ this Oak vibe, to tha fullest!
“Pants saggin’,” strictly deliverin’ some good G-shit, here! My Rating: 3.8
09.
“Warning Shots”
>>>
Mo Biggie, here, but this time, tha beat… Hearin’ you rappin’ and it’s pretty nice;
good fit, too, from tha “Girbauds” to tha “Polo collar.” Great job wit tha
consistent lyrics, strictly holdin’ it down, ova this beat… My Rating: 3.5
10.
“Barzzz” feat. Foxx & Dog Da Cutthroata
>>>
This definitely nice! Gotta luv tha “(Xana)barz” shit repeatin’ throughout tha
hook! Definitely a pure collab!! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and
it’s pretty nice; lol @ you stuffin’
“meat in!” Got Mr. Dog on tha 2nd verse and his “xanz” vibe’s betta
than his random vibe, from tha last collab… Lots of wakin’ up, via dem pillz; good shit! Got Foxx on tha 3rd
verse; lol @ spellin’, “F-U-C-K-I-N-G;” “G?” How about apostrophe?! Lol… Likin’
this “barz” competition wit Foxx, too, toward tha final “barzzz” of tha track,
ya dig? My Rating: 4.4
11.
“By Myself”
>>> Kinda ehh fa me, wit tha way you sound, here… It’s true: “I’m by
myself in this lonely world…” Decent rhymes but tha beat makes this seem a lil’
boring/nothin’ special, in my opinion… My
Rating: 2.6
12.
“The Landing” (Doe feat. $hizz)
>>> Beat’s more like an East Coast vibe, here; *yawns*… Doe on tha 1st
verse and tha rhymes good but I’m just not into this beat, that much (*yawns*…,
literally)… Here you come on tha 2nd verse, $hizz & you stepped
up wit tha rhymes, here. Sounds like an early version of your battle talent;
good shit…! My Rating: 3.6
13.
“Ripped Up” (Doe, Young Trayne & $hizz)
>>> Sounds like a much-betta beat start, here; definitely feelin’ tha
energy…! All about a “ripped-up” hook, here; good shit… Here you are on tha 1st
verse, comin’ through wit a show-off show but it sounds like your average good
track… Trayne on tha 2nd verse, here, givin’ y’all newbies a recap
of his “classics;” good shit! “Now they on my dick, like a pair of boxer
briefs;” go, Trayne, lol! Strictly lettin’ y’all know how it really be! Good shit, straight from da
2-2-5! Got Doe endin’ tha track wit tha 3rd verse, here, soundin’
pretty nice… My Rating: 4.1
14.
“Bitch Niggas Oh Yeah” feat. 1Hitta & Lil’ Hurk
>>> Anotha good opportunity wit this beat start, here, soundin’ pretty
nice… Here you are on tha 1st verse, comin’ through wit tha “Glen
Oaks” representation, here; fa’real! Tha hook sounds like a good lil’ chant,
kinda like Ziggly Wiggly from tha N.O., only this tha Oak! Hearin’ tha 2nd
verse and I’m feelin’ tha energy bein’ brought to tha table, here; definitely
nice! Tha 3rd verse keeps it goin’ wit tha energy, here; definitely
tha vibe I desire! Gotta be wild, wildin’ out, ya dig? Good shit! My Rating: 4.3
15.
“Outro”
>>>
Goin’ back to bringin’ tha NY beats, here; you know I don’t “feel” tha East
Coast-soundin’ beats wit tha samples in tha background! Hearin’ you rap, here,
and it sounds like you’re just rappin’ somethin’ off da top of yo head… Got
some good rhymes comin’ out yo mouth, here and there (e.g., tha “soccer ball”
rhyme). Some of your rhymes, like on tha hook, sounds like Lil’ Wayne in his evolving
stage… My Rating: 2.7
Overall: Most of it was
ehh/somewhat-decent, while some tracks were pretty nice… Not tha best blend of
tracks fa me but I’m glad you got betta with time, from these tracks…

Live2Hustle! L2H! Start Time: 7:46 AM
| End Time: 8:17 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 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!
01.
“Pablo Escobar (Intro)”
JMan on da beat! >>> Great rhymes, even tho a typical-soundin’
mainstream beat, here… Still, gotta luv tha rhymes you bringin’ to tha table! My Rating: 3.7
02.
“WGBT” feat. NBA YoungBoy
>>>
Just like how it was when I was witchu, as you were playin’ me your tracks! “We Gonna Ball
Today”! Great shit, includin’
how energetic you are wit dis! Great hook, great energy, great wit what you
bring to tha table, here! Glad that you got to collab wit YoungBoy, but I don’t
feel him as close as err-body else; way too overrated! Still, definitely nice,
despite his rich/typical rhymes… My
Rating: 4.5
03.
“Move For The Money”
I’ono…
>>> Not into all tha “money” tracks, so this kinda ehh fa me… Hearin’
you on tha 1st verse and it sounds good wit your rhymes, at least.
Glad your rhymes ain’t shitty, despite tha “money” hook… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse,
too; ehh, it iz what it iz… My Rating: 3.2
04.
“Trip 2 Cali”
feat. Pacman Viccz & A1 Yeezy
>>>
Not really feelin’ this typical-soundin’ track; sounds like every mainstream
track… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & I just wanna skim through this
track… Fuck! Tha shit not playin’, right nah; my fuckin’ iTunes…! Got it back
up; here you are on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit some betta
rhymes… Liked your faster rhymes on tha No
Limit 2 Cash Money CD betta than this, but it betta than that 1st
verse, tho! Hearin’ tha 3rd verse from this Yeezy dude and he sound
betta… Not too bad, overall, but that 1st verse & this
mainstream vibe kinda got me like, hmm… My
Rating: 2.7
05.
“Lit Up” feat. Kevin Gates
JMan
on dis beat, too… >>> I’ll admit, Gates sounds pretty good on this
one, despite me bein’ iffy wit tha fast rappin’… Still, he brought a nice
street vibe fa you fa this 2K18! Also, nice hook; great collab! Decent lil’
typical-soundin’ mainstream beat, too… Hearin’ you on tha 2nd verse
and it sounds good ta hear, too… My
Rating: 4.4
06.
“Getcha Shine On”
JMan on da beat… Accidentally heard it on tha previous CD… My Current Rating: 3.9
07.
“Cashmoney” feat. Joey Bae
JMan!
>>> I like how this one sounds, if this gotta be tha best-soundin’
JMan track… I know it ‘bout “money,” but it “Cashmoney,” here, like Cash Money! Hearin’ you on tha 1st
verse and it’s pretty nice wit what you bringin’… Fastness, “money,” ummm…,
good, tho… Tha rest of this pretty nice, too; good shit, overall… My Rating: 3.6
½time: Kinda in-between wit my
feelings fa this, here… Looks like tha big-featured tracks were tha ones fa me,
despite me not really goin’ for ‘em… Only a 3.7-rated CD, so far…
08.
“Madness”
>>> Sounds pretty nice, on tha hook, even tho a mainstream-soundin’
beat… Decent, overall; can’t really say much… My Rating: 3.0
09.
“Doors Up”
JMan… >>> Likin’ how this beat sounds; sounds like an intense movie
finna be recorded in tha streetz! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and
it’s good wit your regular-soundin’ rhymes—well, big livin’… Hearin’ tha hook
and it’s pretty good, too; good shit… Tha 2nd verse soundin’ nice
wit what you bringin’, too; keep bein’ “flawless!” My Rating: 4.3
10.
“She Tatted” feat. Shi
JMan,
here… >>> Sounds like an attempt at makin’ a club banga but this
singin’ voice, on tha hook, sounds like an Internet-sampled track or somethin’…!
Hearin’ you rap on this and, damn, you gotta go wit tha Cardi B flow? Damn;
lemme make this quick! Too mainstream-y fa me…! My Rating: 2.5
11.
“How You Want It”
Hitz, here (Young Hitz, I assume?)… >>> Yup, this our Young Hits/Hitz,
but this beat start kinda not for me… Ugh, why a trick? Not-listed singer on
tha hook? Kinda ehh but I’d rather go with a negative perspective than a
positive one… Hearin’ you rap and it’s ehh; not for me, this time… My Rating: 1.3
12.
“Ol’ School”
JMan, here… >>> Has a good screwed & chopped vibe fa tha 2K18,
here, on tha hook… Kinda likin’ how tha soul mixes wit tha S&C sound, here!
Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it has an interestin’ soul/ballin’ mix fa
this slowie… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, too, soundin’ okay,
too… My Rating: 3.4
13.
“Reasons” feat. Doe_XO
JMan,
once again… >>> I think this’ll be an okay/good collab… Kinda likin’
tha hook from Doe & what you got goin’ on, here… Sounds like it could be
bigger than expected? Well, maybe based off that hook… Hearin’ you rap and,
I’ono, but this fast-rappin’ shit always throws me off… Not everyone iz Twista!! Still keepin’ tha
fastness goin’ throughout tha 2nd verse… I like how you have some
man-made sound effects, like, “BOOM!,” ya dig? My Rating: 3.8
14.
“Changes 2” feat. Lydia
Paek
>>>
Don’t wanna hear Tupac, remade, slowed down… Nice try, good lyrics, but not my
cup of tealicious tea…! Even got tha same lyrics/vibe on this hook from this Lydia… Ehh,
don’t wanna leave anymore feedback but props on comin’ “from nothin’!” My Rating: 1.7
Overall: Thought it was gon be
betta but I guess this where tha mainstream comes to kick my ass… Still, a few
tracks stood out fa me, so at least one of ‘em’ll be featured on my 2018
year-end countdown, comin’ January 7th!
Completed on November 15, 2018 (Louisiana time), in honor of DJ B-Real's birthday.
Broadcasting from tha Council Cup Scenic Overlook, here in Wapwallopen, PA, it's ya boy, FrankieThaLuckyDog, here, sadly reportin' anotha tragic loss in tha Louisiana rap community.
