Review #1,972: Big Boom & The Big Bizness Click "Paperchase 2000"

Reviewed on 6.02.2021 (Review #1,972)
 
 
More reviewz comin’ atcha! Just 28 ta reach 2,000!! Up next, Lafayette’s Big Boom & H-Town’s The Big Bizness Click. Together, they bring my next release to review: Big Boom & The Big Bizness Click Paperchase 2000, released in 2000, courtesy of Double L Records! Start Tyme: 4:43 PM | End Tyme: 5:58 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 (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

01. “Intro”
Producer: Big Boom & Bryce
>>> Let’s get it; “pull” [dat] “rabbit out”! Hearin’ tha verse & it sounds good on this simple beat ta “freestyle off of”; keep it goin’! It’s all about tha sizzouth! My Rating: 4.0
 
 
02. “Money-Making Mission”
Producer: Platinum Fingers
>>> I can hear tha H-Town vibe in tha production, here; let’s swang on ‘em…! Hearin’ tha hook & it’s a good hustle anthem; really feelin’ tha eerie strings added to tha hook! Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it’s pretty nice, just shinin’ wit dem “$200.00 shades”; huh bruh! Also, “Louisiana license plate”; fuckin’ well right! Keepin’ this thang movin’ with tha 2nd verse & it sounds nice to relax to. Tha flow may be calm but tha content all tha way gangsta; nice, relaxin’ mix. Keepin’ this shit goin’ with tha 3rd verse, here, comin’ through wit some more laidbackness; not bad, overall… Now, with 53 seconds left, tha chick sings tha southern lifestyle, as well as anotha hook; cool… My Rating: 4.2
 
 
03. “Big Bizness”
Producer: Platinum Fingers
>>> Cool lil’ post-G-Funk sound in tha beat, here, fa tha non-N’awlinzerz…! Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it’s soundin’ cool; I feel like this an awesome sound for tha south, regardless! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & it’s pretty dope; y’all know what it iz! Gotta keep grindin’! My Rating: 4.1

Keepin’ this movin’ with tha 2nd verse & this shit’s nice; would luv to be nice & high ta this, on tha beach! Tha south! Tha southern weather! As far as tha collaboration goes, it sounds great, as if y’all all havin’ a great-ass tyme…! Hearin’ tha 3rd verse & it’s soundin’ nice with tha nice “marijuana”; you know what it iz! Luv how my Louisiana patna, Uncle T, told me about you, Big Boom & soon, I gon be finally meetin’ up wit my patna! Just waitin’ ta get off probation & then, it’s on! We gon definitely get fulla nice “marijuana”; you know how tha bosses live! My Rating: 4.5
 
 
05. “M.O.B. (Freestyle)”
Producer: Stack (Black)
>>> Sounds like a decent beat fa a “freestyle”, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it sounds good; props fa tha “blunt on tha table”! Gots to!! Hearin’ tha hook & it str8; just a long “freestyle”, basically—well, I would consider it more a track than “freestyle”. Keepin’ this goin’ with tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ pretty nice, as well; how much longer will I be interested in this, tho…? Keepin’ this movin’ with tha 3rd verse & it aight; prolly coulda just had one or two verses, instead, since it’s a “freestyle”. My Rating: 3.6
 
 
06. “Neighborhood Superstars”
Producer: Platinum Fingers
>>> Sounds like anotha laidback, long joint… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it ain’t bad; how long will I be interested? Do I need a beach & a big bed? Hearin’ tha hook & I’ono if I’ll fuck wit this slow, R&B-type shit. Prolly coulda had this as an ending song, instead? Keepin’ it goin’ with a female on tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ okay; as far as me lovin’ this, it ain’t gon happen, tho. Hearin’ tha 3rd verse, this tyme & it’s aight fa a slow jam’s rap; nothin’ else ta say, tho. Dozin’ off, as this takes forever to finish; I’ono, that’s just my mood with these long tracks… My Rating: 2.6
 
 
07. “Life As A Baller” feat. E.S.G.
Producer: Platinum Fingers, Big Boom & Bryce
>>> Sounds like a southern jam, here; feelin’ tha simple-but-good hook…! Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it ain’t bad, here; diggin’ tha deeper voice on tha mic, this tyme…! Hearin’ tha 2nd part of tha 1st verse sounds good; diggin’ his consisten-to-tha-cy! It’s like, tha rhymes don’t stop!! Luv tha “marijuana” & “anaconda” rhyme b4 he dropped tha mic! Now, a 3rd part of tha 1st verse from tha one chick, here, comin’ through with okay rhymes; I’ono what else to say. Keepin’ this shit goin’ with tha 2nd verse & dude’s comin’ through wit a nice blend with Texas & Louisiana, here; keep kickin’ ass! Keepin’ this shit goin’ with E.S.G. on tha 2nd part of tha 2nd verse; kept confusin’ his voice but this tyme, I got it! Feelin’ how he blendin’ in nicely with tha Louisiana/Texas fusion; keep gettin’ it in! My Rating: 4.3
 
 
08. “Mr. Playa Hata” feat. Pimp C
Producer: Big Boom & Bryce
>>> Nice intro from tha Pimp, here; sounds like it gon be anotha relaxin’, needin’-to-be-high vibe…! Hearin’ tha hook & it pretty laidback; really seducin’ err-body, Mr. Boom? Good job & that male singer…; hearin’ tha 1st verse & this shit ain’t bad, overall; props on deliverin’ a “G”’s golden tale. Keepin’ this shit movin’ with tha 2nd verse & tha Pimp comin’ through with a southern lifestyle…! Luv how he always was ‘bout tha undaground & now, I’m just 19 dayz away from turnin’ tha age he last was! Crazy! Keepin’ this thang goin’ with tha 3rd verse, here & it’s good; always acceptable rhymin’ in my book… My Rating: 3.9
 
 
09. “16 Shots”
Producer: Big Boom & Bryce
>>> Nice, eerie beat; too bad this only 70 seconds long! Prolly coulda traded this length with that freestyle from earlier… Anyway, hearin’ tha hook/track, itself & it’s pretty gangsta; beat’s dope ta go with this gangsta-ass sound! My Rating: 4.6
 
 
½tyme: A mix of laidback, country rap tunez & some eerie, tight tracks; keep it goin’, y’all! Current average rating sits at a 4.0; let’s keep it goin’!
 
 
10. “Niggas”
Producer: DJ Dolby D
>>> Sounds like a good lil’ beat & tha hook ain’t bad ta progress on by… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it sounds good; always stay figgy-figgy-focused! Y’all keepin’ this southern shit up; definitely nice to keep it goin’! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & it’s pretty nice, as tha Big Bizness continue to keep Big Boom company; good shit… Keepin’ this movin’ with tha 3rd verse & I’m proud of y’all fa keepin’ y’all focus up; you know what it iz! My Rating: 4.0
 
 
11. “Bust First”
Producer: Big Boom & Bryce
>>> Sounds like a soulja’s type of anthem, here, as far as tha beat’s energy goes… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it sounds good; keep it rollin’…! Got tha hook comin’ through right nah & it sounds like a good lil’ anthem ta defeat tha “enemies”; nice… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & it’s pretty dope; tha “grits” & “bricks”-rhymed lines were dope, too! Keepin’ this movin’ with tha 3rd verse, here, soundin’ like an okay set of rhymes; strictly keepin’ it gangsta at all tymes, basically… A bunch of mixin’ goin’ on after tha verses & hooks; are we mixin’ tha whole 87 seconds of this outro? Okay, mixin’ stopped at 4:09 & now, tha beat continues ta go on its way out; pretty nice… My Rating: 3.8
 
 
12. “Probation Violation”
Producer: Don, Poochie, Big Boom & Bryce
>>> Sounds like some shitty scene goin’ on as an interlude, in tha beginning… Finally, a beat at 0:53? Yeah & it’s a nice dose of dark, gangsta shit! Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it’s pretty dark with these “jail cell” rhymes; I know tha feelin’! Think: Wet salami for breakfast! Fuck havin’ a “violation,” tho; just do tha tyme like it’s an easy challenge to accomplish! Tha hook sounds like y’all just wanna get past this “violation”; tyme sucks that it doesn’t move faster! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & it’s soundin’ just as real as tha 1st verse; pretty intense, lyrically. Damn @ “20 years iz what I’m facin’ on this violation”; ouch! My Rating: 4.2
 
 
13. “Wild South West”
Producer: Big Boom, Bryce, Don & Poochie
>>> Sounds like a dope lil’ beat & hook, here; gotta rep tha “south” & tha “west”! You know what it iz! Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it sounds good, as y’all just wanna keep tha focus on y’all grind! I know I do! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & it sounds like a good caution sign for tha streetz to tha unknown; great job depictin’. Keepin’ this thang movin’ with tha 3rd verse, just shmokin’ dude “like a blunt”; deep, lol. Tha rest of this verse sounds good; can’t complain about bein’ a “G”…! My Rating: 4.3
 
 
14. “Wonder Who (Before They Bit It Version)”
Producer: Don & Poochie
>>> Quiet-soundin’ vocals in tha beginning for tha hook? Sounds like it would be an R&B joint or some shit…? Yeah, hearin’ tha singin’ on tha hook & it throws my interest off; what will tha verses be like? I “wonder”… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & tha rappin’ aight… This sounds like it covers tha topic of tryna prevent a depression? Keepin’ this movin’ with tha 2nd verse & this life-of-tha-struggle content continues…; not bad… A chick on tha 2nd part of tha 2nd verse? She sounds aight but did she have ta be added to a decent track? My Rating: 3.3
 
 
15. “Ride For Me”
Producer: Stack (Black)
Damn @ tha 6:05 length…! >>> Almost thought it was a full-on outro or somethin’? Sounds like an okay hook with tha addition of tha female singin’… Also, five years b4 T-Pain? At 0:38, there was auto-tune in tha voice of just that one second (tha second tyme it says tha word “die,” ironically; wish “die” would apply to auto-tune)! Too bad y’all couldn’t pocket off of that idea! Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it ain’t bad with this voice, so far; just anotha decent track fa me… Got tha 2nd part of tha 1st verse, here & this sounds like a betta voice; keep it movin’… Keepin’ this movin’ with tha 2nd verse & it ain’t bad, here; rhymes are cool with tha “earthquake,” as well. Got tha 3rd verse, here & it’s anotha verse that’s decent; I’ono, I just feel like it’s only an okay track. Also, can’t forget to mention how long it iz! Geez, a 4th verse & it’s tha chick! This already seems too long…! Nothin’ really to say how she came through; tha whole track was just decent fa me. My Rating: 3.1
 
 
16. “L.A. To T.E.X.” feat. South Park Mexican
Producer: Don & Poochie
>>> Sounds like a decent intro & quiet-soundin’ beat, here… Hearin’ tha 1st part of tha verse & it aight with this Mexican featured; still, I’m not hearin’ anything that’s makin’ me jump for joy… Got a 2nd part of tha verse, here & it str8; wish more would go on in tha beat, tho… Damn, no hook? That gon hurt (transitioning); hearin’ tha 3rd part of tha verse & it’s betta than tha rest of tha parts of tha verse, so far. Props on tha southern content, str8 from tha hood…! Hearin’ tha 4th part of tha verse & it aight; that’s all I gotta say. Hearin’ tha 5th part of tha verse & it’s more rhymes from tha hood; not bad but bad for no hook…! My Rating: 2.7
 
 
17. “Young Hustla”
Producer: Platinum Fingers
>>> Good lil’ anthem; finally, some upbeat energy! Great job with tha hook & now, here comes tha 1st verse, soundin’ anthemic! Great job with tha energy; glad y’all got tha right dose, this tyme! Keepin’ this thang goin’ with tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ good fa tha streetz; y’all know what it iz! Glad there’s more energy ta uplift y’all, this tyme round! My Rating: 4.1
 
 
18. “Bendover” feat. T-Pop
Producer: Big Boom & Bryce
>>> Endin’ with an ‘80s/’90s-soundin’ production…; nice! Didn’t expect tha bounce “Triggaman” beat in this one; good shit! Hearin’ tha hook & even tho tha “Triggaman” iz in tha sample, tha beat still sounds kinda dry & tha hook’s delivery’s energy iz pretty much up there… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it aight; I’ono, I can’t jump fa joy with this, neither… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & it literally sounds like a Lil’ Wayne relative or somethin’? Interestin’ Weezy-like flow; a catchy lil’ verse, overall. Keepin’ this goin’ with tha, well, bridge & it’s nice; kinda seemed like a 3rd verse, at first… My Rating: 3.8
 
 
Overall: Most of this went over well; felt more decent than excitin’ ta me but it was still nice ta review & listen to this. Now, just keep holdin’ dat 337 down, Big Boom! Louisiana gotta always stand up!!

Review #1,893: Mydus "Southern Gold"

Reviewed on 12.22.2019 (Review #1,893)


Keepin’ these reviewz goin’, as I reach my goal of 300 things accomplished in 2019 fa my blog…! Here comes my next one: Str8 outta Lafayette, it’s Mydus Southern Gold, released in 1999 on Dynasty Records! This CD was produced by Jay Burton, Jimmy Wiley & Marcus L. Cormier, as well! This CD also features Dolby D, Aftershock, Tray Deuce, Felicia Jolivet & Mr. Newman. Start Time: 7:59 AM | End Time: 9:11 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 (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s pretty consistent; y’all know how ta hold it down…! Got tha 2nd verse goin’ on, here, soundin’ pretty consistent, as well…! “Sober or high…;” can’t even enjoy tha music as much while “sober,” these dayz! Well, maybe before 25, before I got “high,” for tha 1st time. Now, live life to tha fullest, especially when you have a dead brother (R.I.P. my brother)! A lil’ bit of a Jamaican-soundin’ 3rd verse, here, with a singin’ flow; sounds catchy… “Shmokin’ marijuana;” definitely nice! Havin’ tha medical card, I should be able to shmoke legal “marijuana!” All day, every day! Got tha 4th verse, here, soundin’ pretty nice ta quickly progress this track; good shit… My Rating: 4.3

07. “No Love For A Bitch” feat. 4-5 Click
>>> A lil’ more anthemic on tha beat, here; nice… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s pretty nice, holdin’ it down… Sounds like this just keeps goin’, without a transition to tha hook? Don’t think I like this that much; just sounds like one big verse… Nice rappin’ but too long, especially 4:40, without a hook…! My Rating: 3.4


½time: Mainly, this iz a nice CD with some great vibes. Tha track I just heard may’ve not’ve rated as high as tha others, due to tha no hook. However, it’s a 4.1-rated CD, so far, so we’re still up for greatness…


08. “Make It Happen”

Got tha 2nd verse goin’ on, here, soundin’ pretty nice; consistent, dope rhymes fa tha hood…! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 3rd verse, here, soundin’ pretty nice; good shit… A lil’ shout out ta tha hoods toward tha end, as well; good shit… My Rating: 4.2


09. “Playa In Me”
>>> Sounds like a nice lil’ beat, here; a lil’ hypnotized? Hearin’ a chick on tha hook, here, samplin’ tha “ain’t no woman like tha one I got” lyric into, “Ain’t no playa like tha one I got.” Let’s see how tha verses hold it down… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds good, as we’re relaxin’ ta this laidback vibe… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, soundin’ good; not too much ta say… Tha 3rd verse iz here and it sounds nice ta hear, here; keepin’ up… My Rating: 4.0

Here’s y’all name… >>> A regular-soundin’ beat, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and tha fast-soundin’ rappin’ caught my attention! Definitely nice, here…! Now, y’all got a dude singin’ on tha hook, here… Sounds like a regular-soundin’ R&B singer of tha ‘90s but I like how they only said tha title once, split up… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s pretty dope, just like tha 1st verse… Even mo shit comin’ from tha 3rd verse, here…; good shit…!

13. “Live With It”
>>> Anotha regular-soundin’ beat, with a faster vibe… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds good; good lil’ mission-minded mind, here… Tha hook sounds okay, here; felt like I heard it before? Tha “money-makin’” part sounds familiar… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, soundin’ nice; can’t complain… Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 3rd verse, soundin’ good fa tha streetz; nice job… My Rating: 3.8
