What it do, y’all? Ya boy FrankieThaLuckyDog in tha buildin’ with my 2,022nd review, overall! Yes, it’s tha 1st tyme I eva reviewed somethin’ where tha Review # & tha year we’re in iz tha same! Shout out to this release! Courtesy of Loyalty Naturally Instilled Corporation (LNIC), my 2,022nd review iz Percy Keith Certified! Can’t wait ta hear dis one, str8 from da heart! Hopefully, I can connect with it as much as I can… I know I’m definitely a lot betta—Percy, too—since tha last live review for Percy, three years ago. Yeah, I done came a long way, after hittin’ rock bottom & now, we both shakin’ back ‘cause we dem ‘80s babies in our 30’s, ya heard me?! Just like my song from last year! Anyway, wanted ta also add to tha intro that this tha 1st tyme I’m doin’ two live reviewz in one day! My tyme on my hands iz as less as possible, these dayz, but I still manage to set records for my reviewz & media! Great, ‘80s baby, autistic stoner-type shit! Now, let’s get started with tha live review for Certified! Go get ‘em, Percy!! Start Tyme: 2:05 PM | End Tyme: 2:46 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 & 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. “Suicide”
It don’t get mo dark & street than this, Percy! Can’t wait ta hear what you got ta say but you know what’s crazy? It was a decade ago today, May 29, 2012, that I wrote a poem/news story for class & it was a suicide poem! Crazy & now, a decade later, here we are, kickin’ off Certified with a title called “Suicide”! Deep. >>> Sounds like a dark intro with tha beat & I’ono what ta make of your voice on tha hook, here… Hearin’ you on tha verse & it’s dope af! Luv that we’re ‘80s babies, ya heard me?! I can’t wait till I get betta with my productions & shit, so I can have you on my Autistic Stoner Rap, Vol. 2; can’t wait!! Fa this track, I luv how you sound on this with this dark beat; definitely what’s up!! Luv tha darkness of tha hook but Percy, alwayz stay alive, ya heard me?! Wow, tha 2nd verse has a much different flow than tha 1st… Or, I’m trippin’; it’s just a 2nd hook… But, overall, I definitely love what you brought to tha table, here! I’m just kickin’ back in my scratch-off lottery ticket socks, just thinkin’ of how much value you have brought to me, over tha whole past decade I’ve known of you, since October 28, 2012! With that bein’ said, I fuckin’ love what you brought to tha table, here; tha rappin’ & your voice was unbelievable!! My Rating: 4.9
 
 
02. “Day Of The Dead”
Love it! A whole 190 seconds of darkness, once again?! I hope you make it sound as catchy as you did fa “Suicide”! >>> Luvin’ tha dark keys & vibe, so far… You & tha “money,” here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it ain’t bad. You manipulatin’ your voice with tha effect, here, as well as doin’ it fa just tha “money.” Just had ta point dat out; lemme see if somethin’ else can catch my attention… I’m likin’ your “Welcome to tha darkside” part; definitely nice! You know you inspire me ta enjoy life in tha dark, ya heard me?! That’s how you inspire me, ya feel me?! I like how you said, “Focus,” as it sounded like, “Fo—“; good shit! I like how you talk about tha “dark tymes,” too; great lil’ flow & vibe toward tha near-end of tha track… My Rating: 4.0
 
 
03. “Rocky Road”
A chocolate ride like tha ice cream? Or, a darker ride like ups & downs? Prolly tha ups & downs but lemme hear what you got wit dis “Rocky Road” title… >>> Sounds like it’s gonna be an interestin’, slow-type of track? Yeah, it sounds like a nice lil’ country guitar in tha background, as well as tha trap/distorted beats… Nice job on tha hook, Percy; you know what it iz! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse & you in tha zone, all tha way, here… Good, I guess…? Glad you focused; this joint ain’t that bad fa me, overall… Hearin’ you rap on tha 2nd verse & it’s soundin’ slightly betta; sounds like you’re givin’ these bitches a humorous ride… Tha flow toward tha end of tha 2nd verse was a lil’ on tha catchy side; I like how you feel like these jointz gon be big. Keep achievin’ & we’ll keep achievin’ & achievin’, ya heard me?! My Rating: 3.8
 
 
04. “Sandy”
Trippy that this track iz 112 seconds long (1:52); 112 iz tha route on Long Island, NY, where I grew up at. Also, tha title, “Sandy”, gon be a whole decade since it struck Long Island! Crazy thang iz, it was tha day after I first heard of you!! Crazy tymes! Anyway, let’s get it wit dis one!! >>> Sounds like a sunny-type vibe & you even mention “Miami” on tha verse, here… “I know I’m tha shit ‘cause I got evidence”; fuckin’ well right, Percy! You know I got all my “evidence” of my life, over tha years! Feelin’ your consistent rhymes, here, includin’ all tha “common sense” parts… Yeah, “keep dem toolies on [you], like no apostrophe”; fuckin’ well right, Percy!! My Rating: 4.1
 
 
05. “OK”
Producer: HardBody
S/O to QC! “Okay?,” that iz! Anyway, lookin’ forward ta hearin’ what you got ta say on an “OK”, “okay?” Lol! >>> Intro in tha beat kinda sounds like a country guitar, again—ahh, a HardBody production, here. I think this iz way too poppy for what I’d expect from him; coulda used betta sounds, like, B.R. ones!! A whole 100.00% B.R. ones!! Hearin’ you rap on tha 1st verse, tho, sounds dope with your consistency; can’t deny it! Hearin’ tha hook & it’s pretty cool with you with tha “OK, OK”; you even got a 2nd verse comin’ along! Hearin’ what you got on tha 2nd verse & it sounds nice ta hear; diggin’ how you switch your flow, once again! My Rating: 3.5
 
 
½tyme: I fucks wit this, in a way; pretty-good start, so far, with a 4.1 average rating…! How will you continue ta bring out tha CERTIFIED in Certified?! Lemme hear, lemme hear! Keep it comin’! I have to point out, tho, that last year, while I wrote you in jail, I love that I had a withdrawal of wantin’ ta hear you tell me, from back on September 18, 2015, “Your work ethic, man; you don’t… You consistent as a ma’fucka, man…”. That shit alwayz hits me good in tha heart ‘cause you gave me tha birth of Frank Calhoune shortly after, on November 2, 2015! That’s why, I love you for life & consider you one of my favorite Baton Rouge rappers, people, etc. of all tyme! Keep gettin’ it in, bruh! 8/18 fa lyfe!!
 
 
06. “Blue Dress”
Neva got ta really peep it out, so I saved tha peepin’ out fa here. >>> Sounds nice with tha saxophone in tha beginning, throughout tha beat… I’ono how I can react to your voice in tha intro, just yet… Okay, at least your voice iz normal on tha 1st verse, here; sounds like you’re really inta this bitch, here… Basically, just a lovable anthem fa tha ladies in a “Blue Dress”; I’ll leave it at dat. Sounds like you’re gettin’ really wrapped in tha words “someone else,” randomly; lol, 6x? Sounds good with what you bringin’ to tha table for tha ladies, once again… I luv that you got all Xanned out toward tha near-end, too! Gots to feel some sorta vibe, ya feel me? My Rating: 3.2
 
 
07. “Yeah With The Yeah”
Sometymes, I catch a post when I need to catch a post, these dayz. When it came ta this track, I had ta peep out tha video & show tha track luv, ya feel me?! “Mechanic wit da tool, bitch! I’m yeah with tha yeah-yeah!” Luv how you come through on tha beat, fa tha streetz & strictly ‘bout dat “Yeah With The Yeah”!! “Yeah”!! Glad I got ta take tha month of May out ta show dis track luv, all month long! It’s still goin’ fa tha next two dayz, too! Go, Percy! #YeahWithTheYeahChallenge commercial series! Luv how you focused & unstoppable on tha 1st verse, ya heard me?! Gotta ride “thru tha city”!! Gotta luv your focus on tha 2nd verse, too; yeah! All about tha “shit” that tha street luvaz can only relate to! Gangsta-ass shit toward tha near-end of tha 2nd verse, courtesy of gettin’ “kilt” fa a “low” price! Deep… My Current Rating: 4.7
 
 
08. “Sideways”
Fa only 113 seconds, I guess this’ll just be a ladies-type track that’ll just fly on by? >>> Kickin’ it off with tha “cash”-countin’; hmm… I dig tha strength in tha “weed,” too, ya heard me?! “Can’t go a millisecond without that 9mm”; fuckin’ well right! Keep on “shmokin’,” Percy! “Turn dem bitches ta fractions”; fuckin’ well right! Tha rest of this shit’s nice ta hear, here; good shit, Percy!! My Rating: 4.4
 
 
09. “Me & My Girlfriend”
>>> You pushin’ ‘em to “listen to dis bitch in tha car,” huh? Kinda sounds like you’re remakin’, here; not bad with tha hook… Lol @ tha 1st verse: “Lotta sound effects when we together.” Sounds like okay rhymes; can’t really say too much about ‘em… You really inta tha “pussy” & all dat throughout tha 2nd verse, too; keep gettin’ ‘em, Percy! Hope you tryna live your best life, atm… Feelin’ tha bass toward tha end…! My Rating: 3.8
 
 
10. “Up Shit” feat. Doja
Can’t…wait…ta…hear…dis…“shit”! >>> Sounds a lil’ creepy in tha beginning, based off this vibe? An extra voice? A feature? EDIT: Oh, now I see it: Doja! I’ono what ta make outta dis; I just hear you vocalizin’ in tha background… Aight, hearin’ you on tha 1st verse & it’s pretty dope; “good-ass weed, I blow dat!” Fuckin’ well right; you already know how I blow on dat shit! Sounds like a fast-type of flow outta nowhere, on your 1st verse; cool, I’d say… Hearin’ tha Doja dude on tha 2nd verse & he definitely focused fa tha “B.R.”! Gotta feel tha vibes he bring to tha “B.R.” table! Great lil’ contribution ta Percy’s archive, here! Endin’ with a semi-yucky lil’ a-tune outro from you, here. I’ono but tha “pool in tha back” part at least makes me feel more comfortable, due to it bein’ a good vibe? My Rating: 4.2
 
 
Overall: Nice job, Percy; you put together a nice lil’ effort, here. Tha review went mainly in an average/above-average way, which ain’t that bad. I give you props fa continuin’ on wit dis music shit; it ain’t easy! I wish it was easy to where I can just continuously drop projects like they were nothin’! However, they need they own tyme, ya feel me?! Hope we get ta link again soon & I can’t wait till I contribute my ideas ta you fa future projects, ya feel me?! Fa now, keep on grindin’!

Reviewed on 7.08.2019 (Review #1,806)


Hoping to have my 1st day of work, today, at my new job! Before I get to dat, lemme get ta dis: Shizz Dollah Look What You Made Me Do, Vol. 3: Baby Edition review, courtesy of Pay The Producer Production & 3 Baby Entertainment! This iz Dollah’s posthumous release, right chea… Start Time: 8:15 AM | End Time: 3:31 PM

© 2019 CD Review (Review #1,806) reviewed on 7.08.2019 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. Intro: 3-0
>>> Props on winning tha battle, with a “3” in tha score, of course! My Rating: N/A


02. “Clout Chaser”
>>> Comin’ through wit HardBody on tha beat, here (Kevin Rivers & Raheem Hightower); sounds like it gon be a good 1st song on tha disc… Sounds like an okay hook; beat a lil’ quiet but starts to pick up… Sounds like a consistent verse you deliverin’, on tha 1st verse; good shit, Shizz! Tha 2nd verse comin’ through hard, as well, wit tha rhymes; definitely nice. My Rating: 4.0


03. “Boogie Man”
>>> Neil On Da Track! Sounds too mainstream fa me; not likin’ your voice on this one. Tha hook sounds like it’s tryna sell out wit tha beat and voice. Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and I’m not really diggin’ tha voice effects. I remember, back in 2012, when you was dealin’ wit Foxx, you went at me for tha auto-tune shit. It’s 2019 & I still say it’s shit! I’m just lettin’ this play; I don’t really have to say anything… My Rating: 2.4


04. “No Offense”
>>> “Just pay the guy!,” in tha background; shout out ta B-Real (and Kevin Rivers, on this one)! #JustPayTheGuy! Just sounds like a freestyle, so far, with not much goin’ on in tha beat. It’s just a good beat fa you ta let out rhymes on, basically. Mo fiya shit comin’ outta tha 2nd verse, too; thumbs up fa keepin’ it up… My Rating: 3.7


05. “Let’s Be Serious”
>>> Sounds like a betta start wit tha beat, here; J Buc! Sounds like a good hook; definitely catchy and almost reminds me of Ready, from ’09 (“So Serious”)… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it’s pretty nice, too; good goin’, Shizz! Tha 2nd verse’s soundin’ good, too; keep tha good shit comin’ along! My Rating: 4.2


06. “Sex Slave”
Music video out now! Here goes my review for it, as I added it to my playlist, just yesterday (wasn’t sure if this review or da playlist was gon be first, at first). >>> B-Real on tha beat, of course. What I really like about this one iz your flow (of course, no gay voice effects provided); definitely sounds like a catchy hook. Reelin’ in da sex, on da real! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it’s pretty nice. It’s always good to hear more-defining lyrics than just, “I fucked you.” Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it sounds like you’re gettin’ caught up in that fast rappin’ that err-body tryna do, deliverin’ a verse. Kinda random, fa me; I’d rather be flooded with that floooow! My Rating: 4.2


07. “Boss Bitch”
>>> Not gonna comment on tha producer ($hop…); good, catchy lil’ track, between tha hook and what you deliver. My Rating: 4.1


½time: 8:34 AM; just gonna stop and go to tha job. If I get a break, I’ll continue this. For now, it’s an okay CD; a 3.8-rated CD. Original production sounds nice; just avoid tha auto-tune nonsense, B-Real! *Goes to work…* *Comes back at 3:16 PM…*


08. “Window Pain”
>>> J Buc on tha beat but not good wit how you soundin’, in your voice. To me, it’s a lil’ gay wit these “raindrops falling on [your] window;” nothin’ great wit da hook. Hearin’ tha 1st verse from you and you sound slightly better; sounds more like celebrating-type lyrics than depressing? Kickin’ off tha 2nd verse and it sounds like I’m hearin’ tons of recycled titles (“It’s Gone Get Better For Me”, “Make Time For You”); kinda bleh… Really, no more interest in this; some1 else coulda handled this beat betta. My Rating: 2.5


09. Skit
>>> It’s like he thinkin’ ‘bout death with how some have “died” where he at… My Rating: N/A


10. “Mad Man”
>>> J Buc beat, again; can it be betta? This sounds much catchier wit tha good “Sex Slave”-type flow and you sound good wit Magee on da beat (J Buc). Hearin’ what you got goin’ on wit tha 1st verse and it’s good; “Sex Slave”, Part 2, at its finest… Sounds good wit what you’re bringin’ on tha 2nd verse; gotta dig tha line, “Mane, it feels good to be a muthafuckin’ black man!” Ain’t dat right? I feel multiracial, at times, due to how well I’ve connected with people. My Rating: 4.2


11. “Stop Playin’”
>>> HardBody doin’ anotha beat, here… So far, hearin’ tha hook and it just sounds like a regular, mainstream-soundin’ song; ain’t nothin’ Baton Rouge/Louisiana about this, fa me… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and I’m not really diggin’ this flow. It’s just, rhyme, rhyme-rhyme-rhyme, rhyme; rhyme-rhyme-rhyme-rhyme-rhyme, rhyme, as it doesn’t stop. Gettin’ tired of rappers tryna shove so many words into one bar… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse and it’s just random rhymes; can’t feel ‘em too much… Overall, a lil’ below decent for tha track; just anotha mainstream-soundin’ track… My Rating: 3.0


12. “It’s Gone Get Better For Me”
A repeat from Vol. 2, as I previously reviewed:

Sounds like a depressing vibe? Kinda likin’ this quiet-soundin’ [DJ B-Real] beat wit your story goin’ on… Not tha craziest but, it’s crazy how you said, “Only fear iz me dyin’, in my prime…” Who woulda thought you’d have a fatal heart attack at 27? I see you mentioned “Flag,” on tha 1st verse. Yeah, free G.O.C.! Glad you produced his undaground hit song from [2017], “One Mo Time”! As far as tha rest of this, it aight; it iz what it iz… My Current Rating: 3.5


13. “Too Much On Me”
>>> Hitz Production track… Just not diggin’ tha auto-tuned voice on you; interest just drops too quick! Not really feelin’ tha hook; can see this goin’ down da trash… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it just sounds like every rapper turnt father. To me, it’s tha definition of a downfall; nothin’ new. Hearin’ you on tha 2nd verse and it sounds betta wit tha lyrics, but we’re back to that 1,000-words-in-one-bar shit, smh. I do agree about bein’ “more of a man” when it comes to “goin’ through some shit.” I definitely have felt it this year! Don’t even feel tha pain of a sunburn, tbh! My Rating: 2.1


14. “Outro: Words From The Deacon”
>>> Definitely! “Keep workin’ till you get betta;” gotta! My Rating: N/A


Overall: Wasn’t really that great… Thumbs up fa havin’ original production but no features? Need to have more of that Baton Rouge sound in tha tracks than tha mainstream, typical-soundin’ shit you hear on every rapper’s tracks, these dayz. Also, coulda done without tha auto-tune; that’s why Shizz disliked me, back in tha day!

11. “Too Much On Me” 2.1
10. “Boogie Man” 2.4
09. “Window Pain” 2.5

Review #1,784: Shizz Dollah "Look What You Made Me Do, Vol. 2 (Deluxe Edition)"

Reviewed on 11.09.2018 (Review #1,784)


Got anotha review I finna do. Too bad this artist just passed away, tha day I lost my computer job at my job (two weeks ago), on October 26: Shizz Dollah Look What You Made Me Do, Vol. 2 (Deluxe Edition), courtesy of DJ B-Real’s Pay The Producer Production! Purhcased it a month before Shizz passed away, but neva reviewed it ‘cause of tha pain I was goin’ through wit my music video wit A1, as well as losing my commercials opportunity with my job. Either way, at least B-Real’ll appreciate this one… Start Time: 7:27 AM | End Time: 7:58 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.

© 2018 CD Review (Review #1,784) reviewed on 11.09.2018 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “Intro: 48 Bars Of Power”
Let’s hear it! >>> Nice B-Real beat, even tho it turns into a lil’ bit of a typical, mainstream sound, for tha south… Either way, definitely nice wit tha consistent rhymes, Shizz! “Take no dayz off;” that’s what I did when I worked 44 dayz in a row! Then, I finally got Doe-Doe to come to PA & now, my job wants me to take my dayz off, smh! They trippin’ wit they money!! Neva heard me brag!! But yeah, also, it’s sad that now, you’ll “be chillin’ wit Shawty Lo.” Regardless, all these consistent rhymes are definitely nice, regardless of tha mainstream-soundin’ beat! My Rating: 4.5


02. “I Feel The Same Way” w/Da Real Gee Money
Whoo, whoot!! Produced by Neil On Da Track & DJ B-Real!! Definitely felt it when B-Real sent me it, once he reconnected wit me, last October! Definitely a jammin’ beat, hook & what you got goin’ on, here! I’ono, but this, like, my “Welcome Back, B-Real” anthem or somethin’, knowin’ that B-Real’s 100% official, again! Also, Gee doin’ tha damn thang on tha 1st verse wit his continuous vibe! I like this betta than tha whole G-Code 2, thanx to its vibe and all dat! Also, you doin’ a nice job on tha 2nd verse, Shizz! Consistency at its finest; gotta luv it! My Current Rating: 4.7


03. “I’m Outside” feat. WNC Whop Bezzy
Still feels funny that I barely know WNCWB but I met him on my 29th birthday, at tha Bella Noche, courtesy of Funky Fingaz! >>> Sounds like an anticipatin’ beginning; definitely diggin’ this start! Sounds like a nice 1st verse, too; Baton Rouge G-shit at its finest!! Bezzy almost sounds like Spitta, in a way… Luv how those beats slam; that’s what Gee Money’s CD needed, when I just reviewed it! Crazy-soundin’ hook, too; definitely official! Great job on tha 2nd verse, Shizz, strictly doin’ tha damn thang! Yeah, like “Yung Joc” & that “Nitti beat;” so ’06! My Rating: 4.6


04. “One In The Head”
>>> Already not likin’ tha voice effect in tha beginning, here. This sounds like tha shit I was dislikin’ when you were doin’ tha Foxx A.D.I.D.A.S. shit. I’ono, beat’s kinda dry/not really poppin’ & I can’t really fuck wit this auto-tuned shit… A more-normal voice on tha 2nd verse, here, but tha 1st ½ of tha song already threw me off… Sounds betta but it also sounds like random ya-ya-yada ta me… My Rating: 2.7


05. “Make Time For You”
>>> Beginning sounds like some catchy B-Real shit… I’ono about tha hook, yet; kinda catchy but nothin’ I’d go crazy about… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds like an okay track. Literally, you sound like you tryna sound like B-Real, a lil’… Sounds okay on tha 2nd verse, here; relationship-type shit… Glad I neva got to witness a bad relationship, yet. I’ll just continue watchin’ err-body struggle wit they relationships & focus on my career, before I chase a “randomlationship!” Either way, ehh… My Rating: 3.3


½time: Tha 1st three jointz were definitely hot but #4 & 5 were not really for me… Overall, we’re at a 4.0 rating, so far; definitely nice, regardless… Let’s see how we continue dis bitch…


06. “Long Time”
>>> Hardbody doin’ this beat… Sounds like good rhymes, even tho when it’s rapped fast, it sounds random, at times. I like tha “weed” part, in tha hook: “I like tha strong kind;” of course! Nothin’ but dat Cali shit, as well as dat Moonrock shit (weed, kief, wax & hash!!)! B-Real, one more week!! Overall, this a decent two-verse track; can’t complain too much… My Rating: 3.7


07. “Separate Ways”
What’s with tha “Saperate”? >>> Doe on tha beat; not really anticipatin’ this, despite it bein’ a $hizz & Doe collab… Sounds like somethin’ that would be catchy for tha mainstream, on tha singing-soundin’ hook. Then again, tha mainstream ain’t me! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it decent… Speakin’ of, “She text my phone,” on June 25, 2017, G.O.C. Flag St. & them tried hittin’ you up while I was interviewin’ them. You weren’t around but that was a great day, regardless. Anotha track fa tha ladies, here… My Rating: 3.0


08. “It’s Gone Get Better For Me”
>>> Sounds like a depressing vibe? Kinda likin’ this quiet-soundin’ beat wit your story goin’ on… Not tha craziest but, it’s crazy how you said, “Only fear iz me dyin’, in my prime…” Who woulda thought you’d have a fatal heart attack at 28? I see you mentioned “Flag,” on tha 1st verse. Yeah, free G.O.C.! Glad you produced his undaground hit song from last year, “One Mo Time”! As far as tha rest of this, it aight; it iz what it iz… My Rating: 3.5


09. “Blue Lines” feat. Tokyo Yens
>>> A betta beat vibe, here… Sounds like a good hook wit these “blue lines.” Glad you always askin’, “Where da weed at?” Definitely what’s up! Hope you shmokin’ good up in Heaven! Catchy rhymes, non-stop, wit these “Legos” & all that! Neva heard this female on tha 2nd verse, here; not really feelin’ her “money” shit… My Rating: 3.2


10. “No Handouts”
Not “Hand Outs”, lol. >>> Decent beat; decent hook, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it ain’t bad… Some interestin’ sounds comin’ outta tha beat, outta nowhere, like they artifacts; official…! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and tha rhymes are consistent, here… Not likin’ when tha beat fades out into a distortion. That effect sounds too much like tha mainstream shit, these dayz… You did a great job wit tha consistent rhymes, here, but some thangz on this track, such as tha beat and mainstream vibe, made me prevent this from gettin’ at least a 4.0 from me… My Rating: 3.8


Overall: Thought it was gon be betta than Gee Money but only tha 1st three tracks were. Tha rest were either decent or they weren’t really for me… Either way, definitely built some sorta hype fa me, in tha beginning… R.I.P. Shizz Dollah; #LongLiveShizzDollah

And, as a bonus, I neva got ta check out these three tracks off Look What You Made Me Do, Vol. 1, so I finna review ‘em now (neva had tha Deluxe Edition):


“GYST (Get Yo Shit Together)”
>>> This sounds real catchy, between tha beat and tha repetitiveness on tha hook! See, Shizz, you may’ve not’ve liked when I ain’t like your Foxx-released A.D.I.D.A.S., in 2012, due to a-tune. However, you got much betta since! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it’s pretty dope. Random fastness throughout tha 1st verse; kinda diggin’ it… Good shit on tha 2nd verse, too; definitely a plus! Pureness at its finest! Kinda wanted this vibe fa Gee Money’s G-Code 2 but it’s in your hands! My Rating: 4.5


“I Got Me”
>>> B-Real doin’ this beat… See, no matter tha effect on tha hook, this sounds way betta than what I thought of tha A.D.I.D.A.S. dayz! Good catchiness, once again, during tha hook, fa this slowie… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds good, too. Sometimes, a lil’ decent but betta than tha average, of course… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and, how ironic, you mentioned “Wissel,” here, just like I did, earlier in tha beginning of tha review. “I be high as a bird when I drop shit;” you already know, $hizz! Good shit, even with tha voice effect, at times…! My Rating: 3.9


“Don’t Play Around” w/Bo Champ
>>> Sounds good wit a dry, decent beat; good hook… Hearin’ this Champ on tha 1st verse and, “Shit yeah,” iz right? Will it be? Kinda sounds betta than nothin’, here… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s you, $hizz, comin’ through wit some consistent rhymes, at times; good shit… Sometimes, tha voice effects irritate me, like a rash, but it’s—ehh, a 50 Cent “Window Shopper” reference, lol? How random/seems so outdated…! Mainly, this just focused on rappin’ wit not much catchiness, overall… My Rating: 3.6

Review #1,783: Da Real Gee Money "G-Code 2"

Reviewed on 11.09.2018 (Review #1,783)


Been meanin’ to get to this review a lil’ while ago. However, I been depressed about one of my tracks not gettin’ its music video done, in September. Also, during October, tha job I was doin’ tha track for changed on me, so I been a mess, ever since… Now, luckily, I found some sorta motivation to get to this, so lemme get to it: Da Real Gee Money G-Code 2, courtesy of TBG Records. Gotta give big ups to DJ B-Real for reconnectin’ wit me, last year, as well as meetin’ him two months ago! He produced most of this production on here, so shout out ta him! Had to purchase tha CD fa him; “Pay The Producer!” Start Time: 5:43 AM | End Time: 6:24 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!

© 2018 CD Review (Review #1,783) reviewed on 11.09.2018 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. Intro: Life Of A Gee
>>> Sounds like a good piano in tha beginning. Sounds good wit tha intro, between tha news story & you in tha interview, here. Thought there’d be rappin’ but just a good, semi-mumbled intro… My Rating: N/A


02. “Bloody Shoes”
>>> Didn’t really go for tha Cardi B imitation, in tha beginning… Hardbody showin’ luv ta dis production, here, as you’re spittin’ some good shit on tha 1st verse… Sounds good but, I’ono, during tha beginning of tha 2nd verse, tha faster rappin’ that err-body do gotta go. I’ono why err-body thank that ‘talent.’ Hearin’ tha hook betta than tha intro, now & I kinda thank it’s a lil’ catchy. Kinda ehh for err-body to do they own versions of tha Kodak Black track but it serves its purpose, I guess? My Rating: 4.0


03. “Bouncin’”
>>> Mo Hardbodyness comin’ through, here… Sounds pretty nice wit this energetic vibe, on tha hook; definitely nice! If you continued ta live a lil’ longer, this prolly woulda been one of tha great Baton Rouge anthems of this time (tha fun times). Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it sounds like you spittin’ that hot shit that I used to love-love from BR…; good shit! Tha 2nd verse sounds nice, too; good shit, once again! My Rating: 4.4


04. “Gee Pac”
>>> I rather you do this kinda shit than tha Cardi B shit. Anotha nice beat (Hardbody? Didn’t realize he did most of tha production, instead of B-Real…) and bein’ that ambitious writer! Good, consistent shit goin’ on in tha 1st verse, here. I can tolerate this type of fast flow, so I’ll give you tha props. Hook sounds good; good but not obsessive feelings comin’ from me, here… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here & it sounds good, too; can’t complain… And, a long outro at tha end, here… My Rating: 4.2


05. “The Recipe”
>>> Hardbody on tha beat, again. I’ono, this sounds a lil’ boring with tha production and plain, like most mainstream, southern shit of today. I do like how you deliverin’ this “recipe,” on tha hook. Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds good; can’t complain, once again. Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, consistently deliverin’ it… My Rating: 4.1


06. “Dreams To Reality”
That’s how I describe my Louisiana connection, as my “dreams” turned into a “reality,” when I finally touched down! >>> Mo wit Mr. Body, here… Was that a tag for B-Real & Q-Red? “Ask about B-Real & Q-Red…;” three-way production? Decent/quiet beat, tho, but it ain’t too bad wit tha 1st verse… Sounds like some good sounds in tha background, on tha hook, but tha beat’s mainly on a quiet tip… Either way, sounds a lil’ betta wit tha hook, here, but nothin’ too exciting, at times… Even throwin’ a lil’ Biggie, “If you don’t know, now, you know,” toward tha end of tha 2nd verse… My Rating: 3.8


½time: Sounds like a good CD, here. I know I liked tha 1st G-Code betta but this still nice, of course, wit a 4.1-rated CD!


07. “Industry”
Right before you died… B-Real doin’ this one and gotta luv that you, “Fulla tabs, while ridin’ round;” good start to tha 1st verse… Wit this one, I like how you flowin’ on this one, especially wit tha ending words on parts of tha 1st verse (“trippin’,” you know, holdin’ tha notes, randomly). Good consistency on tha 1st verse, of course. Sounds good wit tha hook, especially “Industry” vs. “in da streetz;” same syllables! Good shit on tha 2nd verse, too, but no held notes… Sounds a lil’ more mastered than what we were used to, right before you died (YouTube video). Either way, a good lil’ one before you passed… My Current Rating: 4.3


08. “Kick The Door Down” feat. DJ B-Real, Fredo Bang & Cleezy5
Smh @ tha “Clezzy5”; we “ee”! B-Real on tha feature, this time! >>> Comin’ through wit B-Real on tha beat; wanna feel excited fa dis…!! Yeah, this has more of a spiced-kick than tha rest of what I heard on this CD, so far! Tha beat sounds nice; prolly coulda had a lil’ mo energy in tha kicks or somethin’ but I’m diggin’ it! Good shit on tha hook, B-Real; you got dis! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse, Gee & it sounds like your good, Gee shit; glad you “rollin’ on dem jiggaz!” Got Fredo on tha 2nd verse, here, comin’ through wit dat “G-TBG shit” (“G-Shit” + TBG shit)! Good shit; came quick & paid its purpose! Now, Cleez on tha 3rd verse, here, comin’ through wit mo of dat G-TBG shit! I like at 2:58, it sounds like you can hear some of that hidden energy that shoulda had some tight kicks in it…! My Rating: 4.5


09. “Right Nah” feat. Fredo Bang & Ree-Up
>>> Got Q-Red runnin’ dis bitch, “right” chea… Much mo mainstream wit tha soundin’ than what I’m used to, from him… Hook ehh; sounds like every other mainstream rapper… Damn, 1:03 till it got to tha 1st verse? Either way, here you are on tha 1st verse, comin’ through wit some catchiness. Needless ta say, I’m not gonna jump for joy wit this one… Just can’t fuck wit all tha “money” shit; you know how dat go! No one got tha work ethic I have!! You have a good lineup on tha feature list, tho; good 2nd verse, I guess…? My Rating: 3.2


10. “Fuck With You” feat. Blvd. Bubba & Blvd. Quick
>>> Got B-Real & Austin On Tha Track doin’ this production, here. I do like tha production betta than tha Q-Red one from tha last track. Wit tha voice effects & shit on tha hook, I’ono; not a 100 from me, so we’ll see how it goes… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse & it sounds like a good verse; nothin’ much ta say… Got tha 2nd verse, here & it ain’t bad; good collab, between tha two Blvderz…! We got a 3rd verse, too; good job, y’all. My Rating: 3.7


11. “Painful”
>>> Tha beat intro gives me almost a hint of a Nu$$ie track or somethin’… Since it’s BW (I’ll leave it at initials), I’ll just stop commentin’ on tha beat, since a $20 bill’s a rough path! It’s a sad day when I get written up on BW’s birthday, two weeks ago! It’s almost like I take tha loss fa err-body!! Either way, decent lil’ 1st verse from you, here. Hearin’ tha hook and yeah, it’s true: “Friends turn to strangers.” Now that err-thang about money, these dayz, I can see how fake err-body iz & how I handle myself. Even down to tha people where I live at. Like, they trip about err-thang!! They can’t afford nothin’!! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it ain’t bad, neither. Crazy about tha “kill” parts ‘cause sadly, it came true. My Rating: 3.9


12. “Put That Pride To The Side”
>>> Got B-Real on this track; almost feels like a late ‘90s vibe, here… Not too bad fa a lil’ slow track… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it ain’t bad fa these bitches… Just talkin’ on tha hook, here. Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s just regular-soundin’ rhymes, with a good lil’ hood story from Gee. True dat about tha “money” and how they “change” and shit. No matter what I turn into, I make sure I evolve & don’t change! No such thang as “friends,” sometimes, especially up here in PA! My Rating: 3.6


13. “They Switching”
>>> Q-Red beat; good sound, here… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it sounds like anotha Gee hood story. Crazy that you ain’t “have no shoes.” Thank of how you became a successful, undaground being; great how it turns out! Tha hook sounds good; anotha tale of how people switch on ya! No matter what B-Real & I mighta went through in tha past, I want us to evolve! I wanna celebrate my success wit him & Doe-Doe! That’s how I look at it! My Rating: 3.8


Overall: Most of it sounds good, on tha regular. I just thank that it didn’t have much excitement, wit some parts. Either way, great lil’ last of Gee Money.

© 2018 CD Review (Review #1,782) reviewed on 10.31.2018 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.




01. Prepared For Launch
‘Bout ta climb dis mountain, ya heard me? And, we finna get inta dis! Prepared to “launch,” as we Prepared For Launch! >>> “No Wi-Fi,” here, Percy! Lol, it’s crazy how you’re, like, wantin’ ta “launch.” You “got tha weed,” got tha good shit! Gotta stay “strapped up” wit confidence! That’s crazy! Just hearin’ you say, “Prepare for launch,” it just makes me think that, ya heard me, just wantin’ ta succeed these goals, ya heard me? Just climbin’ up tha mountain, ya heard me? Just wantin’ ta succeed my goals at all times! Great job wit tha intro, ya heard me? My Rating: N/A


02. “Takeover” feat. Brown Gotti
[Listed as “B. Gotti”]. You know dat Brown Gotti, Tron Gotti, Fatt Albert-kinda thang, ya heard me? Hearin’ Brown Gotti, ya heard me? Just goin’ live wit it! “Takeover”! >>> I know we livin’ in—*drops phone*! That was a good way of randomly describing of hearin’ tha same kinda production from every artist, no matter where they from. It ehh, but, ya know what, even this kinda voiced effect, a lil’, I just feel like Percy can have anythang. But, for err-body else, this izn’t tha kinda shit that be different, on a different level… “Sleep in a weed sto,” Percy? It’s Percy!! I mean, yeah, if this was somebody else, like I said, I’ont thank I’d really feel it too-too much. But, I’m givin’ you tha opportunity because you can handle it. Percy fa life, ya heard me? Fa life, ya heard me?! Yeah, it’s all about bein’ “LNIC at all times!” Yeah, we about a lil’ more than halfway up, ya heard me? It’s pretty slippery, ya heard me? Remember: We up on a mountain, ya heard me? So, if we slide, we slide! Imagine if dis bitch had snow in it, ya heard me? Now, we got Brown Gotti, here… Like I said, not 100% hatin’; it just sounds like everyday music ta me… You know I don’t wanna hear dem “money” lines; get ‘em out!! It’s “0 Shit, Yes, Hoe Shit!” I guess this iz tha life of an autistic 30-year-old. I luv doin’ this shit, ya know? Just enjoyin’ yourself and this iz what you wanna do! He “run fa dat shit like [he] late for it!” That’s how ya gotta do it, Percy, ya heard me?! “Gotta run fa dat shit like [he] late for it,” ya heard me? Ya heard me?! Since it was on tha borderline-kinda tip that I just thank it sounds like everyday music, I’m not gon let it be a full fail… My Rating: 4.0


03. “Dreams Cost”
Looks like “dreams” right here, ya heard me? And, we finna just check out our “dreams,” right now! Gotta keep livin’ ‘em up! >>> Yeah, “Ready ta press tha record…” but we been recordin’, ya heard me? Shout out ta Hardbody on tha beat! I thank your voice effect and tha beat combination, it sounds like tha sneaky-catchy way for tha undaground ta sneak into tha mainstream & have their chance, ya heard me? Lol, “Be Kelly Rowland, while I Nelly on ya?!” It’s been 16 years since a “Dilemma”?! “All I thank about iz…;” 16 years?! Yeah, definitely past “dumb;” we “dumb” & crazy, ya heard me, but we not “dumb” & we don’t know what we talkin’ ‘bout, ya heard me? “4 Shit, No Hoe Shit,” ya heard me? Sounds like a catchy hook, like I was sayin’, ya heard me? Like, lost in some crazy, catchy zone, where you know you above tha regular person in this world, ya heard me? Just vibin’ out, I’m just vibin’ out… Just takin’ in all your rhymes…! Definitely real catchy for tha one that got away from tha undaground & snuck its way inta da mainstream, ya heard me? That’s what I consider this as. So, if this could be your only moment, like certain artists, ya heard me? Like, that quick moment, it might be this one; right now, ya heard me? Ewe, tha “Guns & Roses” ending; you said you were inspired by Nickelback with that, “Guns & Roses”. Remember, from five years ago, ya heard me, from tha Compliments Of Luca Brasi CD, ya heard me? A “Guns & Roses” lil’ extra ending; great job! My Rating: 4.9


04. “Stronger”
If I ain’t get ta hear certain songs at certain times, it’s because thangz been goin’ down, right now, ya heard me, and it’s pretty rough, ya heard me? So, I’m just tryna get through a day-to-day basis, ya heard me? I’ono what da next day gon be like, ya heard me? >>> It’s like you lost in a dream… that you just realize you’re on top of a mountain. Yeah, gotta give ‘em “more,” ya heard me? Now, this has, like, a Future beat-kinda flow, but I’m actually really likin’ it from Percy and I’m just sayin’ dat from tha heart, ya heard me? Percy got it! Just tha flow in it… It’s like cuttin’ ‘em up, ya heard me? It’s gettin’ windy, ya heard me? “Lady Luck roll my weed…;” “4 shit, no hoe shit, ya heard me?!” Surfin’ on top of da mountain, ya heard me? #80sBabiesInOur30s, ya heard me? It’s like you can jig to it, ya know? Just get zoned into how consistent you’re deliverin’ these rhymes, ya heard me? Just like a rollin’ cycle, seein’ tha cars pass, ya heard me? Gotta stay ducked-off, ya heard me? Yeah, gotta get it from da “trap,” ya heard me, Percy? It iz what it iz! Trap life, ya heard me? “Can’t be boxed in,” ya heard me? But, my non-boxed-inness iz really gettin’ me lookin’ like a puppet, ya heard me? A puppet, ya heard me?! A puppet, ya heard me?! Ya heardz me?!? Ya heardz me?!?! Ya hearz me?!?!? Just flowin’, like, more than 30 fps [really 29.97 fps, not 30], like, 60 – 120! Controllin’ tha frames-per-second, ya heard me? That’s tha flow & vibe I get off listenin’ ta this…! My Rating: 4.9


½time: We chompin’ on snacks, ya heard me? “4 Shit, No Hoe Shit,” ya heard me? It’s definitely gettin’ trippy, as it’s really gettin’ dark out! So far, tha CD’s at an average CD rating of a 4.6, ya heard me?! That’s what’s up! Ya know, only three songs in, so tha weighing iz just real different. So, Percy, continue dat A-Game, ya heard me? Like tha “A”: “4 Shit, No Hoe Shit,” ya heard me?


05. “Heavy Metal”
Say now, ya heard me? Shout out ta Dylan [my 14-year-old brother] for helpin’ out wit tha production, ya heard me? And, focusin’, learnin’ tha camera, ya heard me? Who woulda thought after all that ramblin’ I just said [in tha video], ya heard me, that it would be “Heavy Metal”? Percy bumpin’ dat “Heavy Metal”, ya heard me? >>> Lol, “so in it together,” baby! Oh, Percy wit tha “perk!” Perc with tha “perk!” Percy ate a “perk?” Perc ate a perk! “Perc Ate A Perk!” “Perc & A Perk” [I kept forgetting what I first said (“Perc with tha ‘Perk’!”), as my camera stopped recording, outta nowhere…]!

And, definitely soundin’ like tha heatin’-dragon-kinda hook! “Hot as a summer…,” ya know that “southern summer,” and tha “flu symptoms.” Damn, Percy, you gotta be shittin’ me! “Tha pregnancy;” ya know what?
