Review #1,978: Boosie "Youngest Of Da Camp"

Reviewed on 6.03.2021 (Review #1,978)

 

 

Oh boy! My next review iz for Boosie! Tha Youngest Of Da Camp release I’m up to, released in 2000 on C-Loc Records! If only I woulda done four more reviewz b4 this one, this woulda been tha same review count as Boosie’s birthyear! It’s all good, tho; we’re goin’ back to that 17-year-old, almost-18-year-old Boosie, here…! Start Tyme: 11:50 AM | End Tyme: 12:37 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!

Hearin’ tha hook from you & I agree: it’s tha “Same Ol’ Shit”, when it comes to peeps seein’ you “shine.” I’m startin’ ta see that, now that I released my 3^rd album, recently. It’s like, a lotta people wanna try & be on my dick or somethin’. Anyway, hearin’ you on tha 2^nd verse & you sound good with tha street shit you continuin’ to bring to tha table… Keepin’ this movin’ with Max on tha 3^rd verse, here, comin’ through with tha life story of a “G”; gotta respect it, once again! Glad he has “tha gas like a tank”; we gotta puff soon, Max! At 3:03, Max said a name & it was censored, in reverse; wonder what dat was?

Hearin’ tha hook from you, Boosie & I’m diggin’ what you spittin’! “It ain’t about no age, mane, it’s strictly how you raised”; true dat, Boosie! I always feel like I develop a decade slower (e.g., I feel 22 years-old, right nah), due to my Asperger’s Syndrome. I’m glad I can connect with all tha ‘80s babies like you, tho; let’s continue to get it! Hearin’ you on tha 2^nd verse & you fully focused with what you bringin’, here; strictly gangsta in tha content! Can’t deny Boosie! Got BiggDawg on tha 3^rd verse, here, comin’ through wit his legendary street content…! That’s right, “legendary”! Loc been legendary & this iz Loc 21 years ago! Great contribution, includin’ that after tha 3^rd verse, tha beat just continued ta ride out…! My Rating: 4.5

 

 

11. “Young Niggaz” feat. Donkey

Hearin’ tha hook & it’s soundin’ like a good lil’ hook; always gotta be “young”! Hearin’ Donkey on tha 2^nd verse, here & he comin’ through like a Baton Rouge animal; gotta feel it! Prolly coulda had him a lil’ more aggressive on tha flow but his content & contribution shows its true Baton Rouge colors, at least! Hearin’ tha 3^rd verse & it’s tha Donkey dude, again? Y’all really blend in nicely ‘cause it’s that life of tha Rouge, basically! “Me, Donkey & Boosie”; but, who’s “me,” exactly? *Checks* Even on tha outro, I couldn’t exactly tell; guess they’ll just be a mystery? My Rating: 4.1

 

 

12. “My Life”
Producer: C-Loc

>>> Sounds like a nice beat from Loc, here; keep holdin’ it down, y’all…! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse & you droppin’ dat heat fa tha streetz, as alwayz! Hearin’ tha hook right nah & it sounds good wit how you define your “life,” on this track; keep it comin’! Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse & you got your autobiography on lock, here; glad you have a legacy of longevity, Boosie! Keepin’ it movin’ with tha 3^rd verse, here & it sounds aight/good; glad you got a lot in “life”…! My Rating: 3.7

 

 

13. “I Got Dat Slap” feat. Max Minelli

Producer: Russell Lee

>>> Sounds like a dope beat from Russ, here, as well as Max on tha intro & hook; keep slappin’ wit dat “slap”! Here you come on tha 1^st verse, Boosie, kickin’ it off with tha life of a dope celebrity; good shit, Boosie… Keepin’ this thang movin’ with tha 2^nd verse from Max, here, comin’ through with a regular-soundin’ flow but with tha content for tha streetz; good shit. Hearin’ tha 3^rd verse & it’s more Max, here, comin’ through with some mo shit that sounds good; gotta dig it… My Rating: 4.0

R.I.P. Video #79: Rambo K Kutta

Recorded April 7, 2021

Broadcasting from tha steel mill, here in East Stroudsburg, PA, it's ya boy, FrankieThaLuckyDog here, sadly reportin' anotha tragic loss in tha Louisiana rap community.

Rayfel Matta, Jr., known by his stage name, Rambo & later, Rambo K Kutta, was murdered in Baton Rouge, LA, on tha 5500 block of McClelland Drive on Saturday, April 3, 2021, at around 6:00 PM; he was only 34 years-old. Matta was movin' around toward a convenience store's front entrance when a gunshot struck him. Twelve dayz later, on April 15th, a 16 & 17-year-old teen were arrested by tha Louisiana State Police Task Force, as well as tha Attorney General Fugitive Apprehension. Tha teens were later booked into Juvenile Detention, where they were charged with both second-degree murder & illegally using a weapon.

Matta was born on August 21, 1986, representin' tha '80s Babies in Our 30's click; Matta was a native of Baton Rouge, LA. Matta caught tha attention of Black Balloon Baton Rouger, Ray Vicks; Matta started his rap career off by goin' by just "Rambo", collaboratin' with Vicks on his 2010 release, 36 Os Later. Matta kept his reputation in tha streets goin' from Baton Rouge & even throughout other coasts, collaboratin' with Baton Rouge's then-Lil' Boosie, Cain Muzik Mafia & Zoe Realla. Durin' 2016, DJ Killa Touch & Kool DJ Supamike hosted his Squirm G-collaborated Drugs-N-Jewelz mixtape, as Matta continued to put that Black Balloon on. Matta kept tha underground streetz on lock until Saturday, April 3, 2021, where he was gunned down outside a convenience store in Baton Rouge, LA. Had Matta lived to see this year's August 21st, he woulda turned 35 years-old.

Reviewed on 11.30.2016 (Review #1,601)

Gettin’ some more reviewz outta my way… Forgot how I found out about this one but straight outta Small Circle Kartel Entertainment, it’s Nino All Eyes On Me, released back three years ago, in 2013! Start Time: 4:49 PM | End Time: 6:11 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.

01. “Intro”

An intro with 4:21 on tha length? >>> Sounds pretty good with your intro, this beat, and how you sound like Spitta on tha verse, here…; dope… My Rating: 3.8

02. “Pay Attention” feat. Geeno

>>> G-Motivation beat; nice lil’ soundin’ beat, here… Tha beat’s a spin-off of Slick Rick’s “Children Story”, here… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s soundin’ jammin’, like it was a West Coast anthem; dope shit! I like how you “addicted ta shmokin’ weed.” Gotta luv it, even tho I feel like I’m not “addicted” to it. Example: Today, I’m just gettin’ reviewz done… Tha 2^nd verse’s nice with tha “got me a plug for dat weed,” when it came to you bein’ “15;” nice! My Rating: 4.3

03. “Life Of A Thug Nigga” feat. Ray Vicks

>>> Sounds like a nice lil’ street anthem; dope shit! Simple but pure hook with that beat! Tha 1^st verse pretty nice, here; good shit… Hearin’ you on tha 2^nd verse and you consistently keepin’ it goin’, here; nice! Did I miss Ray Vicks or did y’all sound alike? Weird… My Rating: 3.7

04. “Outchea”
>>> Sounds like an excellent production, here! Gotta luv tha trombone! Shit sounds nice on tha hook, between bein’ “off tha porch” and bein’ “outchea!” Tha 1^st verse’s pretty nice wit how you comin’ through wit it… I expect, like, some hi-hats or somethin’ in tha beat, here, but there’s none… It kinda missin’ an extra spice in tha beat… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s soundin’ good, too, lettin’ it be known what be goin’ down… My Rating: 4.3

05. “Misunderstood”
>>> Comin’ through wit Big Wayne doin’ tha beat! Sounds good; can’t say much else about tha production… Baton Rouge at its finest! Hearin’ tha hook and it’s soundin’ nice wit how you keep tellin’ ‘em how they be havin’ shit “misunderstood;” dope shit! Tha 1^st verse’s pretty nice wit how you comin’ through wit this gangsta shit! Tha 2^nd verse’s good, as you keepin’ it G, here… My Rating: 4.2

06. “Don’t Need”
>>> Soundin’ like a catchier beat, here; definitely feelin’ those keys! Tha hook’s pretty nice; true shit about “friends turn into enemies!” Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and you soundin’ good… As long as you spittin’ rhymes, you a celeb ta me—well, a celeb in tha makin’! Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and you keepin’ it goin’ wit err-thang goin’ on, here… My Rating: 4.0

07. “Rather Be With You”
>>> This beat’s nice, too; gotta get used to tha background vocal sample, tho, on tha hook… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it ain’t too bad, here… I’ont think I gon feel this one like some of tha other shit on here, but it ain’t too bad… Tha one good thing about it iz that tha beat’s nice and it’s not too long (3:00’s nice)… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s soundin’ good, too… My Rating: 3.6

08. “‘Bout That Life”

>>> Ain’t catch tha producer on tha beat but it’s anotha one of those quality-soundin’ beats from tha 225! Sounds like a good street anthem with that Spitta-like flow/sound, here! Nice, includin’ tha hook… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s soundin’ catchy with these barbequin’ rhymes! Tha 2^nd verse’s soundin’ decent, too; gotta keep it movin’… My Rating: 3.8

½time: Nice job with this CD, so far! Great production and you bringin’ a good set of tracks, here! 4.0 fa tha CD rating, currently…

09. “Go Wit Yo Move” feat. Roota & Blvd Jay

I think this gon be good/tha best one on here? >>> Definitely feelin’ tha intense beat intro!! Lol, I luv how I predicted this ta be my favorite track and it only has to get at least a 4.4 to be my top-rated, so far! Definitely feelin’ tha energy on tha hook and tha beat! Definitely top-notch shit!! These types of jiggin’/hyped-up tracks neva get old!! Tha 1^st verse’s pretty nice; gotta luv this! It’s all about partyin’ at all times!! Fuck those goin’ ta sleep early!! Tha 2^nd verse’s pretty energetic and aggressive wit tha delivery, here! Sounds like tha volume went up in tha voice! Gotta luv tha upbeat vibes!! Hearin’ tha 3^rd verse and it’s soundin’ pretty nice, too! A Small “Circle” Kartel representation, here! I luv how it ended kinda strange, too, quickly… My Rating: 4.6

10. “Heaven Or Hell”
>>> Should I have guessed it was gon be this track with Guordan Banks and ‘em? Kinda a shitty way to follow up that energetic track… *Yawns…* Ugh! A whole 5:44? Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse and it’s pretty nice wit how you comin’ through wit this energy, deliverin’ tha aggressive shit… Tha 2^nd verse soundin’ nice, too, comin’ through nicely wit it… My Rating: 3.7

11. “Do 4 Love” feat. JPP3

>>> We’re goin’ downhill wit this CD? Not too crazy about tha singin’ or tha jacked-soundin’ beat, here… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it aight… Tha 2^nd verse straight, too, but not my kinda vibe, here… My Rating: 3.3

12. “Goin’ In” feat. Doe Boy

A throwback feature, here (well, at tha time of this release, it would’ve been not too long ago), with this Short Bus Boy! >>> Sounds so much betta on tha start, here! Ken on tha beat? Just takin’ a guess from what I might’ve heard in tha background… Let’s just say it was a guess… Tha hook sounds nice with tha “retarded” shit and even tho this sounds nice, I feel like it’s lackin’ energy? Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and tha beat continues ta stay interesting wit you holdin’ shit down… Keepin’ it goin’ wit Doe Boy on tha 2^nd verse, here, soundin’ nice on this track! Glad ta hear from him again! Then again, this don’t sound like tha same Doe Boy, to be honest… I’ll have to do research when I can! And, almost thought tha track ended but tha beat shall continue! My Rating: 4.3

13. “Them Days” feat. Kevin Gates

Let’s see… >>> Not feelin’ how it starts with a Monica sample in tha beginning, but it’s soundin’ nice with this production… Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse and it’s soundin’ pretty nice ta hear… And, Gates on tha 2^nd verse, here, doin’ his thang wit his braggin’-soundin’ rhymes… My Rating: 4.3

14. “Jump” feat. Dat Boy A, Foxx & JPP3

What a lineup! >>> Here’s some energy, here! Definitely feelin’ tha energetic beat, as well as A holdin’ down tha hook! All about tha jumpin’!! Got you on tha 1^st verse, rattlin’ dem rhymes off!! “Fresher than a pack of swishers!” And, Foxx on tha 2^nd verse, providin’ as much energy as A, here! Gotta luv it at all times!! And, that JPP3 dude on tha 3^rd verse, here… I almost thought he was a singer on one of them tracks I ain’t feel too much, but I guess he rappin’… It’s decent rappin’; he just a filler, basically… Nothin’ negative, tho nothin’ exciting… My Rating: 4.6

15. “Tell You This”
”You”, not “Yo”? >>> Yeah, I’d say, “You”; even says it in my iTunes… Sounds like one of them country rap tunes, like, tha today’s version of it on tha beat… Hearin’ tha hook and it decent; nothin’ special wit this title… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it aight, too… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it iz what it iz, holdin’ it down… My Rating: 3.3

16. “Dumb Ova Here” feat. Doe Boy

Likin’ tha feature again! >>> Sounds like anotha energetic vibe! It might even be more energetic than tha previous Doe Boy collab! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s soundin’ nice wit how you deliverin’ this street shit… Tha hook’s simple and plain; gotta luv tha hyped-up vibe! That’s all I know! “Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb! I’m throwed off!” And, that Doe Boy on tha 2^nd verse, here, soundin’ like Young Gregory with tha voice, this time… Definitely feelin’ tha club/hood shit he bringin’ to tha table; gotta luv it! My Rating: 4.2

17. “Street Muzik” feat. Roota & Donkey
Yeah…! >>> Sounds good in tha beginning, here; nice hook… Hearin’ tha 1^st—oh, looka! Features! Not listed on tha back cover! Good thing I noticed ‘em and heard tha 1^st verse, here! Shit’s definitely nice on tha 1^st verse, wit dat aggression!! Tha 2^nd verse’s soundin’ nice, too; can’t complain… Great job wit this collab, too; dumb shit! My Rating: 4.3

Overall: Sounded like a nice CD, here; props ta SCK! Hope you keep it movin’! I know you already are!

Review #1,436: Racked-Up Ready, Madd Marvin, D-Nic & ZC Juice "The Goon Division (Hosted by IamHoodDj)"

Reviewed on 2.12.2015 (Review #1,436)


Keepin’ these reviewz comin’ along, though I’m not too thrilled about wastin’ time on ‘em… I just got done doin’ three and I haven’t gotten one retweet, one favorite, and/or one response; why do I even bother? Sucks ta stay consistent fa no reason! Can’t wait ta continue my hobbies afta this shit! But, here comes anotha disc from last year that I wasn’t sent: Racked-Up Ready, Madd Marvin, D-Nic & ZC Juice The Goon Division (Hosted by IamHoodDj), off tha B.O.W. Entertainment label. Start Time: 7:16 PM | End Time: 8:20 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 (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

01. Madd Marvin feat. Spitta, Racked-Up Ready, Chad Cain, Mista Cain, D-Nic & ZC Juice “Body Bag (Zip One)”

Looooooooooong… >>> Sounds good wit tha beat and tha zipped-up hook… Whoeva did tha beat, it sounds nice ta hear… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse from Madd Marvin and it sounds nice ta hear; great gangsta shit! Here’s Spitta on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit an anti-surprised-kinda perspective, lol… Just a ½ verse from him, here, as Ready’s on tha 2^nd ½ of tha 2^nd verse… Hearin’ him and he sounds good, as always… Just make sure you don’t taunt him ta “put [his] hands on you!” Next up on tha 3^rd verse, Chad Cain, comin’ through wit regular-soundin’ rhymes; decent… Split into Mista on tha 2^nd ½ of tha 3^rd verse, soundin’ okay, too. Next up, Juice on tha 4^th verse, comin’ through wit some burnin’; nice… He sounds like a bigger dude wit how his voice sounds, here… My Rating: 4.4

02. Racked-Up Ready feat. Madd Marvin & Lee Banks “Turnt Up”

Ooh, $hop With Ken on tha beat! >>> Sounds familiar… Whether I reviewed it or not, it’s a nice, catchy hook wit Ready doin’ his thang… Hearin’ him on tha 1^st verse and it’s nice, as well; nice job, but why at 1:10, there’s somethin’ censored? Next up, tha mad, Madd Marvin on tha 2^nd verse… Sounds nice, but why tha part, “Shout out to my ___, and shout out to my ___;” what? Either way, definitely diggin’ his energy! Keepin’ it goin’ wit Lee Banks on tha 3^rd verse… Once again, diggin’ tha energy and aggression; it’s all about bein’—wait, should I say, soundin’ mad! Really goin’ duffy toward tha end of tha verse! My Rating: 4.5

03. Racked-Up Ready “Both Ways”

Q-Red beat. >>> Sounds familiar again, but I ain’t know it, I don’t think? Nice job wit tha hook and tha 1^st verse sounds good; you really goin’ dumb, once again… Tha 2^nd verse sounds pretty nice, too… My Rating: 4.3

04. ZC Juice feat. Racked-Up Ready & Madd Marvin “Go With Ya Move”

No producer listed, just like #01? Okay, tha back cover says, “Hustle,” though no #01… >>> Oh, it’s Young Hustla on tha track; nice beat! However, what’s up with this DJ hosting? I dunno what ta say; I feel like he was thrown into hosting this, lol? Anyway, nice job wit tha hook, Juice, as well as tha 1^st verse; good shit! Keep up dat energy! Keepin’ this goin’ wit Ready on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit dat gutta shit; keep exposin’ ‘em! “In tha trap, gettin’ blunted;” I can relate, now! And, to wrap up this track, we got Madd Marvin on tha 3^rd verse, comin’ through wit dat energetic, aggressive-kinda shit!! My Rating: 4.3

05. Racked-Up Ready, D-Nic & ZC Juice “How Many Gone Ride”

Austin on tha track; why not listed on tha LiveMixtapes ID? >>> Intro sounds like it took a sample from Down Bad’s “Bouncin’ Thru” or somethin’, wit tha, “Bounce…Bounce…Bounce…?” Hearin’ tha beat and it’s real nice ta hear, dat jiggin’-type of Baton Rouge shit I luv! Reminds me of 2010 or somethin’, here… Hearin’ tha hook from Ready and it sounds nice; diggin’ his aggression! Also, same thing wit him on tha 1^st verse; good shit! D-Nic on tha 2^nd verse? Or, iz it Juice? He really sounds different…? Anyway, I’m really diggin’ how he comin’ through on this; excellent voice fa tha streetz! Now, hearin’ tha 3^rd—okay, this verse’s Juice; I’ll flip ‘em in tha original ID… So, excellent verse from D-Nic & Juice’s soundin’ pretty good on tha 3^rd verse… My Rating: 4.4

06. Racked-Up Ready feat. Madd Marvin, Scotty Cain, Deezy Cain, D-Nic & ZC Juice “I Did That”

Tha full lineup, with an uncredited Million Dolla Girl on tha beat, lol. My Current Rating: 4.4

07. Donkey feat. Racked-Up Ready & Mouse On Tha Track “Been Pussy”

Looks anticipatin’ with tha main artist, featuring Mouse doin’ tha beat, too! Y’all dumb-ass unfollowers need to take notes: Mouse’s followin’ me on Twitter & Instagram, outta nowhere, too! At least he keepin’ it real, not like dat stupid-ass fake shit of unfollowin’!! >>> Really likin’ tha beat start a whole lot from Mouse!! And, we got Donkey from Bad Azz Ent. on tha intro and hook, comin’ through nicely! Even some background vocals from Mouse, goin’, “Wahhh… Wahh…,” in tha background; nice!! Diggin’ Donkey on tha 1^st verse, as well; it’s all about dat energy, despite this bein’ a street song! Luv tha mix of content and vibes!! Hearin’ Ready on tha 2^nd verse and it’s okay, so far; just glad to hear him, I guess? No… A 1:11-length beat outro? Guess tha DJ wanted to talk, talk, talk… That “I Am Hood DJ,” or whateva his name iz… I thought I’d hear a Mouse verse, but I guess his beat touch and background vocals was good enough? All right, right before it ended, tha hook repeated… My Rating: 4.6

08. ZC Juice feat. The Gift “Man Down”

I’ono about tha featured artist’s name fa a Juice song; we’ll see… Phunk Dawg on tha beat… >>> Tha beat’s kinda smooth, here; diggin’ tha sounds… Tha hook sounds good, except tha random background vocals… Tha 1^st verse ain’t too bad, here; this a decent track, so far, but I’ono if I can deal wit 5:28 on tha length… Tha 2^nd verse aight; this startin’ ta get long and boring, at times… Yeah, this kinda sounded repetitive, though I’m glad tha song kept it street… My Rating: 3.4

½time: So far, a pretty good CD; lots of consistent tracks, except for #08 bein’ a lil’ boring… Definitely diggin’ tha variety of Zion City, Baton Rouge, 5400 Block-type peeps, here; keep it goin’! Currently, a 4.3 for tha CD rating…

09. Racked-Up Ready, ZC Juice & D-Nic “I’ma Slang It”

This looks more like it wit Austin on tha track… >>> Sounds like a nice beat; Ready comin’ through on tha 1^st verse nicely… Hearin’ tha hook and it sounds like a B.G. sample? Or, somebody…; nice, either way, fa tha Gz! Got Juice on tha 2^nd verse; again, I gotta flip tha ID, since LiveMixtapes had Juice & D-Nic flipped… Either way, he sounds good on this track… Ooh @ D-Nic on tha 3^rd verse; gotta luv his voice on these tracks! Strictly BR-bound, here!! My Rating: 4.3

10. Numbers, D-Nic & ZC Juice “Money On My Head”

Likin’ tha featured name of “Numbers,” but I’m not diggin’ this title… Million Dolla Girl on tha beat… >>> Nice sound, here; diggin’ tha hook and tha beat… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse; must be that Numbers dude? Definitely diggin’ tha energy and what he be bringin’ to tha table, here! Ooh @ D-Nic on tha 2^nd verse; gotta luv him! “Or, at a Ready show;” lol! Nice job wit tha verse; gotta dig it! Now, Juice on tha 3^rd verse, comin’ through wit some good shit, as well… I gon revise tha ID so it goes by verse order… My Rating: 4.4

11. Racked-Up Ready, ZC Juice & 31^st Deedy “Get Out Of Line”

Decky (not “Decky Boy” ‘cause that’s a deceased rapper) doin’ tha track… >>> Really likin’ tha beat start, here; nice shit! Tha hook sounds nice, here…; nice job, Ready, wit makin’ ‘em hate! Here’s Ready on tha 1^st verse and I luv how he’s like, “Insta;” thought he was obsessed with Facebook? Tha best Ready’ll always be tha MySpace Ready…, and he was locked up when he was on MySpace, back when I discovered him! Damn, Juice on tha 2^nd verse? Y’all confusin’ me wit tha order of err-body… Anyway, he sounds good and consistent on this one; good goin’… Got Deedy on tha 3^rd verse and he doin’ his thang, here; good job! My Rating: 4.3

12. Lil’ Pokey feat. Racked-Up Ready “My Hands Good”

HitMan on tha track… >>> Energetic start wit tha beat; gotta luv this! Nice job wit tha hook, Pokey; tha best-soundin’ Baton Rouge music, right chea! Luv when jigg and gangsta shit combine!! Hearin’ Ready on tha 1^st verse and he all ready ta spit err-thang outta his mouth, here; nice! Here comes Pokey on tha 2^nd verse, doin’ tha damn thang on this shit; really luvin’ how he consistently spittin’ ova this fast-soundin’ BR beat!! Great track!! However, 15 seconds of silence at tha end; y’all forget ta chop it off? My Rating: 4.8

13. G-Nate feat. Racked-Up Ready “Bullshit”

Diggin’ that this a compilation or somethin’… Sinister on tha track… >>> This sounds nice; diggin’ tha beat and how tha hook sounds wit Ready on it! Ready on tha 1^st verse, as well, comin’ through wit dat tight “shit!” Likin’ how he like, “Don’t come at me wit dat ‘finna’ shit,” lol! Keepin’ this goin’ wit G-Nate on tha 2^nd verse… Would think it sounds nice, but there’s too much “money” shit and cocky rhymes; yuck! That’s “bullshit” fa me! My Rating: 3.9

14. Level feat. Racked-Up Ready & Mouse On Tha Track “It Ain’t Far”

Oh no… Oh wait, I heard it, already, on tha Turn Down 4 What? CD… An uncredited Mouse on tha hook, just like when I reviewed that CD; gotta dig him on tha beat, once again… My Current Rating: 4.9

15. ZC Juice feat. Racked-Up Ready “That’s What Ya Mouth Say”

Austin on tha beat… >>> Nice-soundin’ beat, here; good hook, too, from Juice! Hearin’ Ready on tha 1^st verse and it’s nice; good shit… Hearin’ Juice on tha 2^nd verse and he soundin’ great, here; good shit! Props fa keepin’ it street at all times! My Rating: 4.2

16. Racked-Up Ready, Madd Marvin & ZC Juice “Finesse Session”

Million Dolla Girl! >>> Nice beat; sounds like a catchy hook from y’all! Good shit! Got Marvin on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through, “fa tha low;” nice! Just hearin’ that title and it’s pretty catchy ta hear… Hearin’ Ready on tha 2^nd verse and he soundin’ good… “Smell tha aroma;” yup! Hope it’s made outta a four-letter word, a.k.a., kush, weed, purp, you know, lol! Hearin’ Juice on tha 3^rd verse, here… Though I wasn’t feelin’ tha “racks” mention, I do like how he was like, “Where tha weed at?” Who doesn’t luv that?!? My Rating: 4.3

17. Racked-Up Ready, Madd Marvin & ZC Juice “Bigger”

Again, Million Dolla Girl!! >>> Great beat, but terrible start wit all this “money” shit; does it sit on y’all’s dicks or somethin’? Bet y’all rub it all on ya balls, since that’s where it’s at! Y’all got “money” on ya dick! It gon EYDU, not EDDU! “Eat y’all dick up!” Anyway, an okay hook, here… Hearin’ Ready on tha 1^st verse and it’s okay; just regular rappin’, here, wit a Baton Rouge vibe… Again, he said, “I’m tha biggest since Big Loc did it;” why mention it twice on this CD? Shouldn’t recycle your rhymes, Ready! Ooh @ Marvin on tha 2^nd verse, startin’ off strong! “Murda, murda, murda, murda!!” Great shit, here! However, this seems so long? Not as boring as tha Juice song, #08, on here, though… Speakin’ of Juice, here’s Juice on tha 3^rd verse, comin’ through wit dat “Molly Syrus,” as it’s “twerkin’” like Miley Cyrus, lol… Almost sounds a lil’ off-beat toward tha last four bars Juice was spittin’, lol; it all good, though… My Rating: 4.2

Overall: Trally Boy did tha back cover? Nice, but he’s terrible at capitalizing! I need ta teach these folks, whether it’s my manager or Trally Boy: MAKE IT LOOK GOOD!! Anyway, seemed like this bitch went off, consistently! Props fa B.O.W. Ent. & dem Fly Goons fa droppin’ a consistent product, here; great job! Not sure how memorable this’ll be fa me, but y’all did a great job! Keep it up, and most importantly, just like Mouse, acknowledge this review and what I do!!!

Review #1,341: Lee Banks "All Eyez On Lee"

Reviewed on 12.04.2013 (Review #1,341)

Time ta get back into these reviewz… I have time, but I’m four dayz behind, now… Here’s my review for Lee Banks All Eyez On Lee. A former Short Bus Boy, now with Bad Azz Entertainment, it looks like? Interesting; wonder how that came about? Iz it ‘cause you were born tha same exact week as Big Wayne? I don’t get tha 161,647 mixtape views, though; that’s way too high? Start Time: 10:41 AM | End Time: 11:11 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 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. “Love Don’t Live Here”

Not really feelin’ tha Madonna title, despite that bein’ my all-time favorite artist. >>> Weird how I was right about Madonna, and it’s a fucked-up version of her on tha sample/hook… Kinda icky for a Heisman sample, but tha beat’s pretty nice… Rhymes are good; you always have that voice fa tha streetz! Now that I’m hearin’ tha hook for tha 2^nd time, it sounds catchy fa this. I have ta admit, nice blend between everything! My Rating: 4.4

02. “Get U A Body”
I don’t remember if I remember tha original version; it prolly sounds tha same as tha remix, I assume? >>> Oh yea, B-Real on tha beat… Yea, thumbs up fa this jam! My Current Rating: 4.5

03. “Been Gettin’ Paper”
Q-Red beat. Of course, you already know I’m not permitted to comment on tha production, so let’s see how you do! BTW, why ain’t B-Real or Heisman on tha filenames as producers? C’mon; gotta show luv ta err-body, not someone who’s self-absorbed, gets offended by numbers, deletes comments and can’t handle followin’ someone! >>> Now, tha sample iz Young Jeezy. Though I’m not into money songs at all, I have to admit, wit a throwback Young Jeezy sample, it sounds good when you’re on it… LOL @ tha “crusty; disgusting” shit on tha 1^st verse; nice… I’m feelin’ your attitude! My Rating: 4.4

04. “Lost Souls” Feat. Banga
>>> I’m feelin’ tha cold, dark vibe wit tha production; nice how you comin’ through wit this… Tha feature’s good, too; finally, a rapper that doesn’t rap about stupid-ass money! My Rating: 4.3

05. “Blood Thicker”

Lil’ Ken on tha beat… >>> Nice! Almost sounds like Juvenile or DJ B-Real sampled on tha hook; definitely feelin’ it! Consistent rhymes! My Rating: 4.5

06. “Ride Wit Me” Feat. Donkey

Some Bad Azzness… >>> Sounds serious fa you ta rap on…; once again, you holdin’ it down fa tha streetz! Catchy Jamaican-soundin’ hook from Donkey! I think that’s him… This might be him on tha 3^rd verse… Either way, feelin’ tha aggression! Consistency at its finest!! My Rating: 4.6

07. “War” Feat. Zoe & Ree-Up

Nice collab, it looks like! >>> Anotha Jamaican-soundin’ hook… This sounds good, too, but tha otha hook was better… You sound good wit your verse, stayin’ focused and at a regular pace… Nice ta have Zoe Realla on tha 2^nd verse! Comin’ through wit some nice, undaground, 225-soundin’ shit! Tha 3^rd verse iz Ree-Up (y’all forgot tha dash in his name), comin’ through wit regular rhymes; it fits here, but you & Zoe were better… My Rating: 4.4

08. “Mirror”
>>> Sounds like a catchy, real-soundin’ song. I like tha hook and how you come through wit this beat behind you… I can feel it, includin’ my uncertain future! My Rating: 4.5

09. “Church”
>>> Not diggin’ this speech (Tupac?) in tha beginning… I’d prefer you just do you; you don’t need any samples or anything ‘cause you’re too good ta be defended… Tha hook’s a lil’ boring for tha content, for me. This ain’t that bad for me, overall… My Rating: 3.7

½time: Very consistent, so far; no bullshit! A 4.4-rated CD, currently!

10. “Tonight”
>>> I like how tha length’s only 2:38; why can’t every song be that length? Don’t need a ton of jointz or a length through tha roof! Anyway, this a nice, Bun B-like jam, as far as tha production goes! It sounds like you workin’ that wood grain wheel nicely, mixed wit your real-life rhymes! BTW, today, six years: R.I.P. Pimp C! First eva tribute video I made (got it featured on my YouTube’s trailer, today)! My Rating: 4.4

11. “Let Me Know” Feat. April Showers

Bringin’ some snow showers (hopefully soon), where I’m at! It might be almost 60 tomorrow, based off of rain! Random for December! >>> A Wodieson production (why not listed?). Not really into tha start at all, especially that whiny-crying… Not too bad, overall, but this kinda content ain’t really for me, as far as high ratings. I just heard Angel Haze on MCU, and hearin’ this April Showers girl on tha 3^rd verse kinda gives me a reminder of her, a lil’. Not too bad; it ain’t bad… My Rating: 3.5

12. “Boaw” Feat. Cupid

Not anticipatin’ this feature, despite tha title… >>> Wow, very laidback, here; thought this would be a club banga… Not bad, but too R&B for me/a ‘mixtape’. When y’all gon think of an album? This would belong there! My Rating: 2.7

13. “Listen”
>>> Catchy beat, here. Feelin’ your rhymes about real life, once again. My Rating: 4.2

14. “Tear Da Floor Up”
Club banga? >>> Yea, this iz more like it, unlike tha Cupid feature! Sounds nice; nothin’ really ta say about this, as tha club vibe says it all! My Rating: 4.3

15. “Bluffin’” Feat. Young Shine

>>> Good street shit, here; I like tha Racked-Up Ready vibe. As long as you don’t sound like a sellout, or wannabe-sellout, then things’ll be good. Always stay in ya lane! And, as far as Shine, it sounds good, Bus Boy Entertainment style, wit gangsta shit, this time! My Rating: 4.0

16. “Crucifixion”
>>> Sounds nice. Tha hook sounds like some classic-soundin’ BR shit wit tha title at tha end of tha hook! Consistency, here! My Rating: 4.2

17. “Mouth Off (G-Mix)” Feat. Mista Cain & Lil’ Ernest

Looks outdated for a mix, in my opinion? Then again, I can see why ‘cause it’s a bonus… >>> Lil’ Ken, of course, on tha track. Yea, last year’s sadly in tha past for me. I tried to carry its torches, but when doors close, there’s no way to be happy about it, anymore. I’m ready fa tha future! But, as far as you & Ernest, it sounds nice! I still don’t get tha whole killing obsession/carry-a-gun-at-all-times obsession. It’s like, why do all y’all have ta have interactions wit people? I don’t interact wit no one; gotta live my life! My Rating: 4.3
