Review #1,454: Bigg Nick "Hustla's State Of Mind"

Reviewed on 3.20.2015 (Review #1,454)


Here’s a review that got in my way, just now: Bigg Nick Hustla’s State Of Mind, from 2012, courtesy of Mac Soul Music. Start Time: 5:05 PM | End Time: 6:10 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!

© 2015 CD Review (Review #1,454) reviewed on 3.20.2015 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “Fire”
>>> Nice beat to rap on and tha hook sounds nice with your “fire” energy… Tha 1st verse sounds good with your real-life rhymes, here… Tha 2nd verse sounds nice with tha real-life rhymes, as well, with a lil’ cockiness… SMH @ “my president iz black, he motivates me;” really? How much did he ruin in this world, already? Hate that he got re-elected, no less, but only one more year of this mess! My Rating: 4.2


02. “Grizzy” feat. Derty Red & Lil’ Cali
>>> Goin’ for a bounce-influenced beat, here… Nice hook with how you say tha title, but screw dat gay shit about “if it ain’t about money, quit wastin’ my time!” Here comes tha 1st verse from Derty Red and though at times, it sounds good fa this track, I just don’t fuck wit “money” shit… More “money”-obsessed shit with tha 2nd verse, here, from you… How does it feel to fuck “money,” Nick? God, this verse’s annoying me… Like, how many “money” references?! Even more of this shit wit Cali on tha 3rd verse…; yeah, yeah, yeah… My Rating: 3.6


03. “I Do Dis”
>>> “You think I ain’t gettin’ money;” damn, more recycled shit, it sounds like? Only like tha title repeatin’ in tha hook for tha hook, here… Tha 1st verse aight, here; basically, it’s a lack of interest for me, here, once I hear tha topic of “money,” smh. My Rating: 3.5


04. “I’m A Beast” feat. Goonie & Bro-Bro
>>> A better-soundin’, Louisiana-soundin’ beat, here… Tha hook sounds pretty nice, here; diggin’ tha club vibe… Hearin’ tha 1st verse from this Goonie dude; not really feelin’ tha Boosie voice, but most of this sounds great—well, not tha “money ain’t shit to me” shit. Hearin’ you on tha 2nd verse and damn, I thought this was a club song about “tabs” and shit? Why you gotta bring up “money” and shit so many times?! This wasn’t what I grew up to! Hearin’ Bro-Bro on tha 3rd verse; sounds good to hear, with no “money” shit, luckily! My Rating: 4.0


05. “Get Away” feat. J Beezy & Red Dog
>>> Volume’s real quiet, here? Why you ain’t fix your volumes? Although an R&B vibe on tha hook, I’m likin’ this summer-soundin’ vibe. Let’s just hope it’s not ruined by “money” bullshit! Here you are on tha 1st verse and it’s okay… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse from J Beezy and it’s decent fa this track… And, Red Dog on tha 3rd verse, though nothin’ really too poppin’ about tha voice, here; thought it would be more distinct… Instant ending outta nowhere? My Rating: 3.4


06. “Dolla After Dolla” feat. Lil’ B & Red Dog
>>> Stupid-soundin’ hook; why this gotta be 4:23? Don’t have to fill tha CD up!! Can’t deal with this with your “ka-ching” shit on tha 1st verse; bad start to this song… Ain’t diggin’ tha 2nd verse, too, from Lil’ B; really obsessed with “money,” smh? And, tha 3rd verse’s whateva; blah, blah, blah… This song ain’t fa me at all! I should’ve just skipped it! My Rating: 1.4


07. “Leave ‘Em Lookin’”
>>> Likin’ tha beat start with its intense feel… Hearin’ tha hook and it sounds catchy. However, I dunno if I can take any of this music serious, anymore ‘cause it’s always about “money,” smh… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s—oh wait, you just said, “I’m gettin’ money;” disease?!? Fuck feedback! However, tha 2nd verse has some nice energy in tha flow from you, here… Commentin’ on tha beat again: Sounds just like tha same sound pattern as Famous Stranger’s “The YFL”… My Rating: 3.7


08. “Laid Back” feat. J Beezy
>>> Definitely a nice-soundin’ Louisiana beat with a hook about “ridin’;” hopefully, this continues ta sound nice! Okay, here’s you on tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ nice fa this anticipatin’ ride! Speakin’ of that, I can’t wait ta ride wit my boy, Lil’ Frankie, when I go to Long Island tomorrow!! You already know how we do, on dat good shit!! And, speakin’ of good, see, you didn’t have ta mention “money” on this verse, right chea; good job! Tha 2nd verse from J Beezy sounds pretty nice; can’t deny it… And, anotha verse, here, from you, on tha 3rd verse… Almost feels like it hints some bullshit, but you passed tha test. Not to mention, you swapped tha full verse for a ½ verse of J Beezy, here; nice! My Rating: 4.2


09. “Money On My Mind” feat. Goonie
>>> Although I have a feelin’ this gon suck, at least it’s only 2:28… Hearin’ tha 1st verse from that Boosie Goonie and it’s soundin’ good ova this beat… Tha volume’s 4.4 decibels lower than it should be, which makes it quiet… Hearin’ tha hook and tha beat sounds betta, but this still ain’t for me, overall; can’t tolerate that “money” shit! Here you come through on tha 2nd verse…; uh, it’s okay. My Rating: 3.5


½time: So far, an average CD, with a 3.5 for tha CD rating. Could’ve been better, if there weren’t all these bullshit “money” songs/topics…


10. “Who U Wit” feat. Red Dog & Bro-Bro
>>> Back to tha Louisiana sound, here; sounds nice “wit” your energy on tha hook. Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it ain’t bad… I dunno, but I need DJ B-Real to unblock me ‘cause I’m not really excited about anything I be reviewin’… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it sounds good from you…; diggin’ your aggression on your voice. “Half on dat liquor, half on dem jiggaz;” that’s right! Gotta have some “jiggaz” music and not dat fuck shit about “money!” And, Bro-Bro on tha 3rd verse, here, comin’ through wit some nice-soundin’ BR shit; great aggression! My Rating: 4.2


11. “Return Of The Mac” feat. BDB & Mo Stackz
>>> Yucky remake music, here; I don’t think so! Even tha beat! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse; nice energy, but this song ain’t doin’ it fa me… Yuck @ tha hook bein’ tha same hook as tha original track! Tha 2nd verse’s whateva, too; good to flow with this, I guess? Mo Stackz sounds pretty catchy with tha consistent rhymes, here, surprisingly; nice 3rd verse… Aight, I’ll be nice with this rating… My Rating: 3.0


12. “Tenderoni”
I actually know this one; ain’t know it came from this CD, first… My Current Rating: 4.2


13. “I-10” Feat. Lil’ B & Red Dog
>>> Sounds anticipatin’, especially since it’s a ridin’ song, once again! Definitely feelin’ this one, as well; nice hook! Unlike tha previous ridin’ song, this one’s got some bs “money” shit on tha 1st verse, but at least there’s some “purp” shit, I guess? Tha 2nd verse ain’t too bad, here; it’s whateva… I think tha ID’s wrong: It says, “Lil’ B & Red Dog.” Meanwhile, I think tha word, “Feat.,” iz missing from tha ID ‘cause it sounds like you’re on tha 2nd verse? Anyway, tha 3rd verse’s soundin’ pretty nice, too… My Rating: 3.9


14. “I Go Hard” feat. Derty Red & BDB
>>> Not really into tha sample on tha hook; why are all these songs 4 ½ minutes long?? Derty Red on tha 1st verse; sounds decent… Tha 2nd verse from BDB sounds good with tha “blowin’ blunts” and shit like that…  And, tha 3rd verse from you sounds okay to hear, especially with your aggressive voice… My Rating: 2.7


15. “Hustla Fa Life” feat. Remy Ro & P.Bond
>>> Quality sounds a lil’ watered-down, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s whateva… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it sounds good, at times, though I don’t think I gon jump for joy wit this… Tha 2nd verse from Remy Ro kinda sounds random to be on here, with this voice; I dunno… P.Bond on tha 3rd verse and although tha flow’s excellent, tha lyrics aren’t really for me; fuck this “money” shit! My Rating: 3.2


16. “Swagg Up” feat. Mo Stackz
>>> This B2K / Omarion R&B vibe ain’t for me, here; too poppy… Wow, what a horrible hook!! It sounds like I was smarter when I was 12! Tha music back then was way better!! Well, at least this only 2:35! Definitely not feelin’ your rhymes, here, with all this bullshit about “money” in, like, every line…, as far as tha topic! My Rating: 1.0


17. “Opportunist”
>>> Not feelin’ tha hook or beat; your voice sounds like it’s ready for auto-tune dick or somethin’… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and really, this joint has to be 4:11 in length? It’s not like there’s features! Boring; not diggin’ these rhymes dedicated to tha females… My Rating: 1.2


18. “Crash Dummy” (Ken Ruffin feat. Bigg Nick)
>>> Might be worth tha bonus track? Diggin’ tha beat, here, and tha 1st verse sounds nice for this kinda energy provided on this track… Ehh, it’s startin’ ta lose its touch with tha “money” bullshit—ahh, why so many times?! Nick, you need to quit braggin’ about it so many times! Ugh, annoying!! And, here comes Ken on tha 2nd verse, soundin’ pretty nice; sounds like a nice “Baton Rouge” sound, without tha “money” bullshit! And, tha 3rd verse sounds pretty nice, too… My Rating: 4.1


Overall: I believe I liked your newer CD better; this wasn’t really that on-n-poppin’ fa me… Like, too many “money” topics/songs and then, there were songs that sounded too R&B fa this CD. Also, tha songs that had that jigg vibe were just okay for me; they had somethin’ screwed up in ‘em, almost… But, hope you continue to grind…

Reviewed on 3.20.2011 (Review #876)


Review #3 fa today iz a reloaded version, or should I say revamp: D Phi Ent. Presents “The Life At D Phi Ent. (The Revamp) (Hosted by DJ Mike Nasty)”; will it be betta or worse than tha original? Wit Mike Nasty hostin’, I should have some extra anticipation! LOL, 197 reviewz ago was tha original D Phi Ent. review; lol, talk about grindin’! Forgot tha disclaimer of who D Phi Ent. iz: D Phi Entertainment iz Yung Strapt, Veto Vet, Jay Mitch, Dee Jay, Yung City, Tenisha, Clutch, Goonie, Clover, and Blucca Boy Beazy. Start Time: 8:02 PM | End Time: 8:29 PM


Quick Note: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself wit my ratings!! I don’t care how lyrical you are! As long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings. If a song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already.

© 2011 CD Review (Review #876) reviewed on 3.20.2011 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. Intro (DJ Mike Nasty)
>>> Sounds nasaly, lol! Anyway, good shit! Glad ta have Mike Nasty doin’ tha damn thang on tha intro! My Rating: N/A


02. “My Life”
Tha same as tha “The Life” song? >>> I guess it’s different; dis sounds betta, especially betta than a 3.3 rating! Tha rappin’ sounds good, here; D Phi Entertainment in tha buildin’! Nice job wit tha Southern verses; always gotta luv a Southern perspective! My Rating: 4.1


03. “I’m Tellin’ U” Feat. Lil’ Sheppard & 2 Slugz
Anotha new song fa me. >>> Ooh, tha hook’s a lil’ catchy wit tha “yo niggaz…” shit; dumb shit! Y’all doin’ a nice job on this beat; lol, immediately “on dem tabs,” lol! Tha 2nd verse has catchy “bow-and-arrow” rhymes goin’ on, here; thumbs up. “Sheppard been ‘bout whateva;” Lil’ “Sheppard”? If so, good combo. ROFL, tha 3rd verse iz 2 Slugz? Damn, what a great combo, in a much betta way!!! Gotta luv him; I always support him!! Damn, he keeps shit comin’!! My Rating: 4.3


04. “U Kno Dumb”
I always gotta lol @ tha missin’ “w” in tha title! So, Jay Mitch iz tha main artist, featuring Clutch? ‘Preciate dat, although because y’all unknown ta me, I prolly gon source err-thang as D Phi Ent. as tha artist ‘til I know betta. >>> G-Motivation doin’ tha beat; this sounds catchy, even though I’d expect more energy wit a title like dis… Either way, consistent shit when it comes ta tha vibe of dis joint! My Rating: 4.2


05. “Listen”
I only gave dis a 2.8? *Rehears* I said it was “cheesy” but it ain’t too bad. My Current Rating: 3.5


06. “Swag”
>>> Ooh, Mike Nasty on tha intro; gotta luv how he wanted ta “buy $300 worth of Girbauds” and shit! Anyway, I don’t really go fa a title like dis but Mike Nasty made this anticipatin’ wit wantin’ ta spend “$300,” lol. Tha verses are only aight fa me but it’s betta than tha typical “Swag” title I’d hear. ROFL @ “smellin’ worse than underarms!” My Rating: 3.6


07. “Can’t Get Through To You”
My worst-rated song for D Phi Ent.? *Rehears* Yea, too different; I won’t change my rating. My Current Rating: 1.5


08. “Cuz U Were Running Ur Lips”
Now wit “Were” in tha title, lol? It’s now a “past” title, lol. Anyway, tha style I definitely like, especially tha Zion City feel, a lil’ bit (Young Ready)! My Current Rating: 4.1


09. “The Life”
This one was boring for me, at first, and even though I’m keepin’ tha same rating, it ain’t too bad/different style. My Current Rating: 3.3


10. “The One”
>>> Pathetic start for tha production; are y’all Pop or somethin’? Damn, even a Lil’ Wayne flow? Immediately shuttin’ dis off! My Rating: 1.1


½time: A 3.3-rated CD, so far. But, y’all good fa me, at times.


11. “I’ma Hold It Down”
Think y’all forgot tha “a” in tha “I’m”; still think this iz a good joint. My Current Rating: 4.3


12. “Keep It On My Waist”
Glad y’all added Mike Nasty to tha intro; dumb shit, still! My Current Rating: 4.2


13. “What’s Up With Me”
>>> A decent start and a decent joint, overall. Prolly could’ve had betta production, here. “I want five stacks for a feature;” what? That much? Why? Why? I don’t get tha high amount! I charge a lot less fa things ‘cause I know a shitload of people and I gon stick ta dat technique! ;) I’m likin’ tha 2nd verse wit tha way tha dude knows how ta deliver shit, as well as havin’ a cool voice, too. Tha 3rd verse sounds nice wit tha shit bein’ spit; feelin’ tha vibe y’all bringin’ ta tha table, here! My Rating: 3.8


14. “L.O.V.E.”
>>> Good production fa a song dat I don’t think’ll be fa me. ROFL, a Boosie sample, outta nowhere, on tha hook?? :rofl Funny! Tha content sounds more street than Pop, luckily, which iz hard ta come by wit how y’all were Pop on this CD, at times! Tha 2nd verse iz a lil’ on tha Poppy side, a lil’, but it flows wit dis joint, good, especially those ad-libs! Tha 3rd verse sounds like Boosie? Oh yea, I forgot dat one of y’all sound like him; tha hook’s still funny, though, ‘cause it sounded random, at first. I like tha dedication fa dudes, lol; sometimes, it’s hard ta see dat in other dude’s feelings. My Rating: 3.6


15. “U Deserve”
>>> What’s this R&B shit? Does this even count? Why iz this here? My Rating: 1.0


16. “Stand Down”
Here’s tha Boosie-soundin’ song I first heard on tha previous CD, lol! My Current Rating: 3.9


17. “Deep In It”
>>> Not really a Southern style, here. Only below average/decent fa me… My Rating: 3.0


18. “Dream”
>>> Crowd beginning. Then, guns; why? This iz decent; I like some of tha rappin’, here. Kinda inconsistent, at times, but smh @ this hook, since it sounds familiar. My Rating: 2.8


19. Outro (DJ Mike Nasty)
Yay! Mike Nasty on tha outro… >>> Soundin’ good, here; like how he said, “bruh,” outta nowhere. Good job wit tha promotion fa D Phi at tha end, here. Even a “bruh” ending, too. Also, nice “lemme hold five dollas” outro, too, lol. My Rating: N/A


20. “Bend Over”
Glad this iz a bonus, since I rated it good. My Current Rating: 4.0


21. “Our Love”
>>> Bad ending; not really inta tha singin’. Tha rappin’ iz nothin’ special, so I can’t really say anything… My Rating: 2.1


Overall: I had a feelin’ this was gonna score lower than tha previous one. However, I did like dat Mike Nasty hosted.


Rankings:

19.       “U Deserve” 1.0
18.       “The One” 1.1

Review #679: D Phi Ent. Presents "Life @ D Phi Ent."

Reviewed on 11.27.2010 (Review #679)




Keepin’ it goin’, I’m tryna hunt down some new music for my radio show. I figured I’d check out D Phi Ent. Presents “Life @ D Phi Ent.” and see how good it iz! There’s 23 track so there’s gotta be room fa somethin’ tight!! Plus, thanx to GR8 artist Eddie Starks, I know about D Phi Ent.! Let’s see how GR8 this iz and what I gon hear from it!! Start Time: 11:30 AM | End Time: 12:48 PM



Quick Note: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself wit my ratings!! I don’t care how lyrical you are! As long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it!

Source (Where I Got Tha CD From): http://www.datpiff.com/_Life_D_Phi_Ent.m159430.html


01. Intro
Where do we begin? >>> Sounds anticipatin’; lookin’ forward ta hearin’! My Rating: N/A


02. “Cuz U Running Ur Lips”
Tight title and tight attitude; let’s hear it!! >>> Damn, not even an original beat? I’ll still see what it has to offer… It’s good and I’m likin’ tha style of this rappin’ goin’ on… I like tha gangsta sound wit tha lyrics, though… My Rating: 4.1


03. “Give’em What They Want”
>>> Kinda long on tha length but tha beat sounds pretty good… Again, feelin’ tha gangsta style here. Despite it bein’ hella long, all y’all held it down here! My Rating: 4.3


04. “Keep It On My Waist”
“Keep it” goin’, lol! >>> Whateva these beats are, I’m feelin’ ‘em! Anotha gangsta song; good shit! My Rating: 4.2


05. “Stand Down”
>>> Sounds more mainstream, almost like Rick Ross… SMH @ tha Lil’ Boosie shit in tha beginning; why? Neva mind, I think that’s someone that sounds like him… Again, anotha pretty good song. I think tha remainin’ songs are gonna be like dis… My Rating: 3.9


06. “Bend Over”
Switchin’ up tha styles, lol? >>> Tha beat sounds are a lil’ familiar for some reason… Either way, this iz cool wit tha Pimp C sample in it… I think this iz still street although I don’t really know too many people that know of D Phi Entertainment… My Rating: 4.0


07. “Driveway”
LOL, I wonder what’ll come outta this title? >>> This sounds more borderline wit tha beat sounds… Anotha good song wit barely anything fa me ta say… Tha hook’s a lil’ borderline like “Swag Surfin’” wit how it’s flowed. But, not bad for a song… LOL @ tha cutoff towards tha end when I thought it was gonna repeat tha hook. My Rating: 3.8


08. “Diamonds”
>>> Bad beat sound although it sounds a lil’ like Christmas so I won’t hate too much. What’s up wit all these samples? Are y’all afraid to represent by yourselves? I’m not feelin’ how tha 1st verse iz soundin’. It started good wit tha “weed” shit but sounds like tha boring/stupid Wayne flow and tha lyrics are gettin’ a lil’ shitty… Tha rest iz aight but somewhat gettin’ to me wit tha typical lyrics… I feel like some of it doesn’t have to do wit “diamonds”? My Rating: 3.0


09. “The Life”
>>> Kinda boring; why I gotta sit here for over four minutes? An okay song but I can hear this from everyone else… My Rating: 3.3


10. “Fallin’”
>>> Bleh… Why I gotta sit here for nearly tha same amount of time again?!? My Rating: 2.4


11. “Listen”
>>> Better beat but what’s up wit these cheesy songs??? My Rating: 2.8


½time: Where tha hell iz tha tightness I’m lookin’ for? Like Eddie Starks? Tha cover only says that D Phi Entertainment iz Yung Strap’t, Veto Vet, Jay Mitch, Dee Jay, Yung City, Tenisha, Clutch, Goonie, Clover, and Blucca Boy Beazy… Anyway, 3.6 iz tha CD rating so far but will keep trailin’ down if thingz keep goin’ sour.


12. “Turn You Out”
>>> Another boring song for me; c’mon wit dis! I’m 22; this sounds like somethin’ if I was more than ½ my age? My Rating: 2.9


13. “I Ride For You”
>>> Sounds more like J Buc’s kinda beats but no need for excitement, just yet. Did y’all steal this or somethin’ ‘cause it iz him? Much betta from that huge mess from before! Would be a bitch to edit this for my radio show so hopefully, I’ll have tha patience… Good job for tha content here; should be easily considered tha best song on here although it didn’t strike me that much at first… My Rating: 4.4


14. “I’ma Hold It Down”
Labeled as #15 on DatPiff but really #14… >>> This iz a lil’ betta than some of tha crap from before. I can handle this; I like who’s rappin’ on tha 1st verse, doin’ a nice job. Tha hook’s good and damn, this dude’s holdin’ tha whole track down! Definite plus; glad things are comin’ back wit this CD! My Rating: 4.3


15. “If U Kno Like I Kno”
Keepin’ it goin’? >>> Nope, this ain’t even an original beat. I’m not really into tha female on tha hook although it ain’t too bad… Okay, tha beat sounds a lil’ betta and I think tha 1st verse gon be pretty good… Tha 2nd verse was pretty good, good enough fa me ta take this song into consideration of bein’ pretty good. My Rating: 3.7


16. “Can’t Get Thru To You”
I think things finna go downhill… >>> Yup! Pointless waste of time for me, smh! Not even any rappin’, smh? Why iz this here? My Rating: 1.5 (if I feel that somethin’ completely doesn’t belong, my rating iz usually a lot lower)


17. “Stand The Rain”
>>> Another pointless, bullshit song! Well, first minute. Tha 1st verse sounds pretty good… This iz kinda gettin’ borin’ wit tha long 2nd verse but whateva… I don’t really go for songs wit samples in tha hook. My Rating: 2.4


18. “Reality”
>>> LOL, a stolen Mod Productions beat, too? Or should I say, “how much did you pay fa dis beat?” Not tha kinda song fa me so this iz nothin’ special. However, it’s betta than tha bullshit on here. SMH @ “goin’ ta prison” on tha 2nd verse; why you like jail? My Rating: 3.2


19. “Bled Those Blocks”
Got any proof? Just wanna know. >>> Finally, some hot production again! This has to be tha hottest beat on here! I hope it’s original; it’s prolly not… Good job wit tha hook here; I’m interested! Still, it would be good wit some proof ta prove dat it’s real! Good 1st verse; tha lyrics alert me that death iz comin’ (no offense)? That’s what usually happens to tha real dudes, unfortunately. Glad tha same dude from tha 1st verse’s on tha 2nd verse, too! Because y’all say, “bled,” instead of “bleed,” I’ll consider this title “bled” instead. My Rating: 4.5


20. “Sworn Enemies”
>>> Anotha hot-produced song! Interestin’ title and hook; this CD’s slowly comin’ back!! GR8 topic and content throughout tha whole song! Didn’t expect three verses, too! My Rating: 4.3


21. “It Was Only A Dream”
>>> Screamin’ sounds, lol. Thought there was a sample after tha screamin’ but y’all got similar voices ta people in tha mainstream at times… Thought this would be a cheesy song but it’s pretty good although a lil’ mainstream. My Rating: 3.5


22. “Terrific”
>>> Good, anotha normal-soundin’ song… This iz more 225 than most of tha shit here so that’s a plus. Good job on tha verses and this iz definitely somethin’ catchy. My Rating: 3.8


23. “Gurl U A Beast”
Last song here… >>> What was that “Ice Boy” tag in tha beginning that sounded like Boosie or somethin’? Anyway, hot beat and it sounds like it’s a pretty good ending song… Too bad it’s only one verse but it’s still pretty good for an explicit song. My Rating: 3.9


Overall: Kinda mixed here… A bunch of times I was disappointed while there was a lot of aight shit. Then, some songs surprised me, makin’ me really like ‘em! I would say keep doin’ tha damn thang ‘cause y’all a good click. But, where’s Eddie Starks?
