Review #1,974: Big Tymers "I Got That Work"

Reviewed on 6.02.2021 (Review #1,974)

 

 

Goin’ fa my 6^th review fa today! Can’t imagine how many years it’s been since I did six in one day! But, here goes my review fa Big Tymers I Got That Work, released in 2000 on Cash Money Records & Universal Records; S/O to Mannie Fresh fa producin’! Start Tyme: 8:15 PM | End Tyme: 9:29 PM

 

 

Disclaimer: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion! I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care how lyrical you are, as long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings. If a song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6 rating, I pretty much really love it, as it’s considered mindblowin’ when I hear it! Any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> ” iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song; anything after I type “ >>> ” iz what I think of tha song while I’m listening to it. If you sound like anything too mainstream for me, have auto-tune in your vocals, or talk about nothin’ but money (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

01. Intro feat. Lovely & Atrice

>>> Luv how I started tha review at 8:15 PM, Nipsey Hu$$le birthday tyme! As far as this intro, it sounds like y’all really in tha driver’s seat for tha bitches, here; crazy! Crazy what y’all can do with y’all intentions! My Rating: N/A

 

 

02. “Get Ya Roll On”

This one well known! Throwback/Classic tymes of 21 years ago! I didn’t realize how special Louisiana rap was, when I was a pre-teen/13-year-old. I did remember that I respected it a lot; I loved Lil’ Wayne at Age 14! Just luv tha anthemic vibes of tha “roll on” & just how tha two of y’all rep this joint to tha fullest! Tha whole flow, tha hype, tha energy; definitely in a plaque, in my book! I’m fulla dem edibles, right nah, just really appreciatin’ this! My Current Rating: 4.9

 

 

03. “Nigga Couldn’t Know” feat. Lil’ Wayne

>>> Gotta luv how Weezy comin’ through on tha 1^st verse! Luved “Project Bitch” when I was 12 & didn’t realize Lil’ Wayne was on that, right away! I discovered him pretty early; S/O to Weezy! Luv how tha beat sounds & how y’all come through with tha street-type shit, on tha hook; y’all know what it iz…! Here we go wit Baby on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit that everyday-in-tha-hood feelin’; huh bruh. Got Mannie Figgy-Figgy-Fresh on tha 3^rd verse, here, soundin’ more like he just talkin’? This talk-rap flow kinda ehh; just seemed like filler? My Rating: 4.4

 

 

04. “#1 Stunna” feat. Lil’ Wayne & Juvenile

Oh, Geez; luv how this came on outta nowhere! Definitely anotha throwback classic; S/O to y’all two + Wayne & Juvie! Literally, a perfect way to express how you can celebrate your own success! Luv how N’awlinz Juvie & Weezy were, here!! Like, radio really needed that grimy, 504 dialect! Like, they just luved to be here! That’s what you gotta have in ya! My Current Rating: 4.9

 

 

05. Big Chief (Skit) (Ziggy)
>>> Gutta-azz Ziggy, here, comin’ through with tha hoodest-of-tha-hood, here! Like how B.G. had “Hottest Of The Hot”, 19 years ago? Now, two years older: “Hoodest Of The Hood”; that’s what I woulda came up with! But yeah, hope to meet Ziggy, one day; gotta luv how he has maximum energy on tha mic, skit-wise! My Rating: N/A

 

 

06. “No, No” feat. Lil’ Wayne

>>> Sounds like a catchy-ass track with tha Figgy-Figgy-Fresh beat & how Wayne collaborates wit y’all! Luv how y’all make “No, No” a title that represents not just a turn-away but a comedy-like sound with tha way this sounds; huh bruh! Gotta luv how catchy this whole entire shit goes! Like round & round; that’s what I feel like tha “no, na-no” shit really goes around your head, like sheep, lol…! Js! Luv how all three of y’all held it down, consistently; really zoned into that title part! It’s nice & infectious…! My Rating: 5.0

 

 

07. “We Ain’t Stoppin’” feat. Hot Boy$

>>> Sounds like a good lil’ 1^st verse from Juvie, here; feelin’ how he brings his all to tha hood fa y’all…! Got Lil’ Wayne on tha 2^nd part of tha 1^st verse, here, comin’ through wit some gutta street shit; gotta feel it to tha max! Also, B.G. on tha hook, here? Definitely catchy, here & now, transitionin’ to both Figgy-Figgy-Fresh & Tiggy-Tiggy-Turk? Awesome with how y’all two came through on tha 2^nd verse! Ooh! Birdman & Weezy on tha 3^rd verse, as if it was Like Father, Like Son, which wound up bein’ six years later! Luv how they alternate from Birdman to Weezy, on tha 3^rd verse; definitely an awesome way of mixin’! My Rating: 4.8

 

 

08. “My Life” feat. B.G., Juvenile & Turk
>>> Sounds like a calmer track but still catchy, on tha hook; good lil’ Figgy-Fresh, here… Also, Figgy-Fresh iz on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through with a catchy lil’ vibe, here… Hearin’ B.G. talk about his “rough life” b4 tha 2^nd verse came in & I thought that was somethin’ special ta add… Either way, hearin’ Fresh on tha 2^nd verse & I feel like it’s a mix between a long hook & a less-catchier vibe? Let’s see how tha rest of them boyz do… Hearin’ Birdman on tha 3^rd verse & I can see where tha Fresh’s long hook came outta; tha “My Life” repetition iz tha catchiness. Just hearin’ that title part frequently iz a similar type of repetition that came through in one of tha previous tracks & I really latched on to it! Shout out ta Turk makin’ a lil’ appearance on tha check-in, b4 tha 4^th—oh wait, no rappin’ from him? Damn; just…an…out…r…o……… My Rating: 4.2

 

 

09. “Sunday Night” feat. Lil’ Wayne

>>> Sounds like a laidback-type of beat, here, ridin’ on dem “dubs,” as well… S/O to Baby fa holdin’ down tha 1^st verse; who woulda thought those “DVDs” would be on tha extinct tip, like Blockbuster? Keepin’ this shit goin’ with tha hook & it sounds str8; almost sounds like y’all tryin’ too hard? “Sunday Night”; like, “Ight”, as in “aight”, lol? Anyway, y’all got Weezy on tha 2^nd verse & I’m really feelin’ his presence; definitely nice with what he brought to tha table, with his 17/18-year-old-ass! His representation was alwayz cool, back then! With Mannie Fresh on tha 3^rd verse, here, it sounds like anotha spoken-word set of rhymes; not really feelin’ it fa a flow… It sounds like he’s readin’ a checklist off or somethin’…! His semi-cheesy hook sounds betta than his verse? Who woulda knew?! “Goin’ up ta 2001…”; huh bruh. It’s funny ‘cause that’s where I’m goin’ with my old Louisiana reviewz that I’m doin’. Though I will resume it again at sometyme, I’m goin’ from 2000 – 2008, from what I collected & didn’t get ta review, yet. With that bein’ said, it sounds like a long outro, too… My Rating: 4.0

 

 

½tyme: Sounds like a real awesome release, with lots of quality energy! A coupla Fresh fuck-ups but with him on tha whole album’s production, at least he really has tha tracks on lock, somewhere! Also, an awesome 4.6 for tha average rating, so far; keep achievin’ those stiggy-stiggy-starz…!!

 

 

10. “10 Wayz”
>>> Sounds like anotha checklist from Fresh; this one sounds like it’s more for tha beach, too! Geez, that hook sounds like so much fun or somethin’; like, this was tha sound to appreciate to tha fullest, ethically. Keepin’ this movin’ with Fresh on tha 2^nd verse & this sounds more like rappin’, at least; props fa tha slightly-betta flow, Figgy-Figgy-Fresh…! Got a 3^rd verse from Fresh, too, comin’ through with tha most-Mannie Fresh of Mannie Fresh’s verses on here; more piggy-piggy-props ta you, Fresh? Also, even Fresh doin’ tha outro, too; just seems long but I liked how he did tha outros, on certain outros. Oh boy, “Stuntastic”; I luv attachin’ “tastic” to words, too, ya heard me?! My Rating: 4.1

 

 

11. “Hard Life” feat. Juvenile & Lil’ Wayne

>>> Sounds good with Baby on tha 1^st verse, as well as tha beats goin’ on fa tha Big Tymers vibe, here… Hearin’ tha hook & it sounds nice with Juvie, here; he’s such a great role model fa tha hoodz of tha 504—sound, too…! Keepin’ this shit movin’ with tha 2^nd verse from Weezy, here, comin’ through with greatness! So glad Weezy got his rewarded success, in tha end; glad his longevity long af! Got tha 3^rd verse from Mannie Fresh, here, comin’ through with a catchy vibe ta flow with tha beat; good goin’, Fresh! Keepin’ this shit movin’ with Juvie on tha 4^th verse, comin’ through with mo shit fa tha hood; so proud of his representations! My Rating: 4.5

 

 

12. Big Chief (Skit) (Ziggy)
>>> Luv how Ziggy speaks tha facts, in an aggressive way! It’s like, “WALK! WALK!! WALK!!” He’s tha type that really forces out tha good, in tha end! Almost sounds like tha male Cita! “Cita; she’s a big baby!!” My Rating: N/A

 

 

13. “We Hustle” feat. B.G., Juvenile & Turk
>>> Sounds like anotha nice-soundin’ Cash Money beat, here; feelin’ how Juvie comin’ through on tha 1^st verse, here… Hearin’ tha hook from Turk & it dope with tha “hustle”; no wonder why I “hustle” with my talent! It’s tha quality like this that brings tha most outta people, I feel like! That goes ta those that focus on their dreams in a major way (e.g., myself)! Got B Gizzle on tha 2^nd verse, here, comin’ through with his usual, laidback, hood content; not bad, Mr. Gizzle…! Got Birdman on tha 3^rd verse, here, comin’ through wit his bossmade-soundin’ self, here; not bad/good job… Luv how this has a “Tha Block Is Hot” feel to it; Mannie Fresh & his consistent-ass! Also, Fresh doin’ a 4^th verse? Oh, tha checklist-type of flow! Lots of decentness & now, this? Deep… My Rating: 4.3

 

 

14. “Pimp On” feat. Unplugged

>>> Sounds like a different type of track that I prolly wouldn’t be too-too excited about… That male singin’ on tha hook’s kinda sappy; a lil’ catchy but it seems like it neva ends? Finally, some Birdman at 0:54 fa tha 1^st verse… Diggin’ tha celeb/car-like rhymes he be spittin’; can’t deny but to appreciate success! Oh boy, tha 2^nd verse iz Fresh with his checklist-soundin’ flow…! Even “in tha shitter”; go, Figgy-Fresh! Of course, a long outro with that hook just takin’ ova tha speakers, entirely…! Oh wait, Baby saved tha day with tha 3^rd verse & his “Girbauds”; huh biggy-biggy-bruh! Also, Fresh on tha 2^nd part of tha 3^rd verse? At least it’s a normal flow than tha check-liggy-liggy-list! My Rating: 4.0

 

 

15. “Stuntastic” feat. B.G.
>>> Can’t believe I’m listenin’ ta somethin’ called “Stuntastic”, right now! Talk about leaders!! Beat’s definitely pretty pure, includin’ how B.G. holdin’ down tha 1^st verse! Oh, just luvin’ how tha beat gets more excitin’, startin’ with Bar 5! It was Bars 5 – 8! Also, Bars 13 – 16! Interestin’-ass thought, Fresh! Gotta luv tha hook; that’s me, all tha way! That’s tha way I express my dialect! B.G., you nailed it!! Hearin’ Birdman on tha 2^nd verse & it sounds cool, as well; definitely feelin’ how he expressin’ his “Stuntastic”-ass…! “Stuntastic, straight out tha plastic!” That’s B.G. for ya!! Keepin’ this movin’ with Fresh on tha 3^rd verse, here, comin’ through with a decent-soundin’ flow; sounds more like a list of what’s bein’ shown, tho… Also, no special beat sounds durin’ his verse? How cutthroat to his damn self! Oh, now, tha excitin’ beat sounds came back, once B.G. hit us with tha hook, again! “Ballerific”, just like “Ballaholic” (Beelow)! Luv tha lil’ outro from B.G., as well; it’s all about that dialect that catches tha most customer service attention, lol… My Rating: 4.8

 

 

16. “Rocky” feat. Juvenile

>>> Sounds like a good lil’ 1^st verse from Baby, here; spittin’ catchy rhymes on this nice beat by Fresh, of course…! Hearin’ tha hook & it sounds catchy with Juvie’s “Rocky Balboa” reference; props fa hittin’ ‘em, Juvie! Early auto-tune? At 1:15, Mannie Fresh says, “Cat cave,” or somethin’ & it sounds like auto-tune…! Did he realize he coulda made a lot more off of it than T-Pain? Who knew…? That’s just my opinion… As far as Fresh on tha 2^nd verse, here, it’s a decent lil’ verse; good contribution that was overshadowed by tha auto-tune discovery I made…! *Sigh* Okay, Fresh, you’re on tha 3^rd verse, too, as I can give you props fa doin’ a good job with tha verse. It’s like, you always want a win, Fresh! Gotta keep goin’ fa tha big “W”! Also, tha 2^nd part of tha 3^rd verse with Birdman, here, comin’ through with a good contribution ta split up Fresh’s extra full verse… My Rating: 4.4

 

 

17. “Big Tymers” feat. B.G., Lac & Stone

>>> Sounds like a slower anthem-type of beat, here; sounds good, regardless… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse from Birdman & it sounds good; analyzin’ tha streets like you know every eyeball! Feelin’ tha perspective of tha “jumped off tha porch,” just strictly movin’ up to tha next stage in life…! Keepin’ this thang movin’ with B Gizzle on tha 2^nd verse, here, comin’ through with that real-soundin’ gangsta shit; you know what it be…! Oh boy, tha 2^nd part of tha 2^nd verse iz Figgy-Fresh; at least he comin’ through with a good flow fa this track. Hearin’ tha 3^rd verse from this Lac dude & it’s pretty dope with how well he flows with tha beat! Definitely dope! Also, tha Stone dude sounds nice & southern with his presence; definitely nice! Did I forget ta mention, props fa B.G. fa reppin’ fa tha “Big Tymers” on tha hook, here; definitely dope with that siren-catchy beat sound, too! I made a dedication-type of track like this one ta 70^th Street Carlos called “Fulla Dat 70^th”; I wanted ta celebrate how great he iz, on a track. My Rating: 4.7

 

 

18. “Snake”
>>> Sounds like a decent lil’ beat ta end this release off… Hearin’ Fresh on tha 1^st verse & it ain’t bad; basically, he showin’ everythang all off, once again. Hearin’ tha hook & I can see where DJ B Real gets his inspirations from; Fresh, you really provide that dose of catchiness…! All about tha “rattlesnake,” basically… Keepin’ this movin’ with tha 2^nd verse from Birdman, comin’ through wit how he makes it with his “Snake”, accordin’ to this title & its content… I’m glad that it’s at least entertainin’; tha Big Tymers done earned they ratings! Hearin’ tha 3^rd verse & it sounds more like an outro? Oh, well, maybe it’s ‘cause Mannie Fresh lead it off with his checklist-type of flow; it even spilled into Birdman’s court! Either way, to me, it sounded more like filler space! My Rating: 4.2

 

 

Overall: Awesome job, y’all! Some of tha flows I may’ve not’ve agreed with but tha tracks really stood out, altogether. Great job with tha continuous dose of catchiness y’all two applied ta this release! Glad y’all got even more out there than just this but these tymes are pryme tymes!

01. Checkmate (Big Tymers)
>>> Diggin’ tha beat from Fresh, here, as well as his intro & Birdman’s contributions, too. My Rating: N/A

 

 

02. “To My People”
>>> Sounds like a nice lil’ street track from you, here; catchy flow wit how you come through on tha 1^st verse…! Tha rest of this seems like it drags, while tha beat continues ta hold it down…; I’ono but I don’t have much else to say. My Rating: 3.1

 

 

03. “Gun Slinger”
>>> Anotha nicely-produced Fresh beat, here, as it’s strictly for tha hood. Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse & it str8; will this drag like tha last song? Not sure but tha hook sounds pretty nice wit how you keep your “gun” on you at all tymes; gangsta shit… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse & it sounds good wit your laidback street flow; continue ta get it in…! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 3^rd verse & damn, we still got two whole minutes left? Seems a lil’ long but it’s cool with tha continued, gangsta-like rhymes, here… Now, we got a whole minute left of an outro, here; not bad… My Rating: 3.8

 

 

04. “U Know How We Do” feat. Lil’ Wayne

>>> Sounds good wit Wayne on tha 1^st verse, here; nice Mannie Fresh combo wit tha production, too. Definitely sounds nice from this then-18-year-old; good shit, Weezy! Feelin’ how he comin’ through wit tha “dawg” shit on tha hook, too; Wayne in full-on, underrated coolness, durin’ these tymes! Now, here you come on tha 2^nd verse, here, comin’ through wit some good shit, too; nice job. Hearin’ you on tha 3^rd verse & it ain’t bad ta hear what else you bringin’, here…; progressin’ decently, overall. My Rating: 3.9

 

 

05. “What’s That Smell” feat. Turk
>>> Likin’ tha “somethin’ stank” shit in tha intro, here; iz dat dat flower? Hearin’ tha 1^st verse & it str8; can’t deny you, tho. Hearin’ tha hook & it’s aight; just tha “smell” of you “comin’” through, it seems like? Keepin’ it movin’ wit Turk on tha 2^nd verse, here, comin’ through wit some nice Hot Boy$-type shit, here, fa his teens; good shit! Hearin’ you again on tha 3^rd verse, here & you soundin’ str8; I can digz it. My Rating: 3.8

 

 

06. “This Nigga Die”
>>> A grimy, screwed-soundin’, distorted voice on tha hook; pretty dark. Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse & it sounds intense for tha street content; gotta watch yo back… Keepin’ it movin’ with tha 2^nd verse, here, soundin’ good wit your laidback flow ta go well with this dark/dope beat. Keepin’ it movin’ with tha 3^rd verse, here, just keepin’ shit goin’. For tha tracks wit just you on ‘em, you prolly shoulda just left tha 3^rd verses out & have it limited to two verses. Just seems like tha tracks are long; that’s what I’m sayin’. My Rating: 3.9

 

 

07. “Change The World” feat. Big Tymers & Hot Boy$
>>> Seems like a good lil’ laidback-soundin’ party, based off tha production? All y’all comin’ through on tha 1^st verse & it sounds good wit how y’all change members on tha verse. Hearin’ tha hook & it sounds catchy with tha “whoo-whoo” beat sounds; nice job. Oh wait, more of a hook with a male singer, here; ehh, decent… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse & tha alternation between members ain’t bad on this verse; nothin’ too-too catchy, tho. Hearin’ tha 3^rd verse & it’s an okay verse of alternatin’ members; I’ll give y’all some props. My Rating: 3.5

 

 

08. Tyma Talkin’ (Tyma)
>>> Seems like tha upcomin’ party (next track) gon be catchy af? My Rating: N/A

 

 

09. “Hennessey & XTC” feat. Big Tymers

>>> Sounds nice wit Fresh on tha hook, singin’ wit his jigged-out ass! Catchy lil’ beat & dope-soundin’ beat; feelin’ tha vibe! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse from Fresh & it cool; I’ono about tha sex increase, as far as tha X goes. I ain’t get ta get that vibe; I musta been more focused on my goals, which I always am. Either way, a decent verse; thought it would be as catchy as tha hook… Hearin’ Baby on tha 2^nd verse, here, comin’ through wit his good-soundin’, Big Tymers-like appearance fa tha 2-000, basically. Got you on tha 3^rd verse, here, just comin’ through wit your intoxicated ass; gotta dig it! My Rating: 4.0

 

 

10. Tyma Talkin’ (Tyma)
>>> Dude sounds too sensitive to laughin’; literally, in a world fulla pussy. My Rating: N/A

 

 

½tyme: Only a 3.7-rated release, so far; seems like there’s a bunch of average/slightly-above-average tracks, with some a lil’ too long. Need some mo hype, B Gizzle!

 

 

11. “Press One”
>>> Seems like a slow vibe; not sure if I can stay interested long… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse & it’s aight; do you want me to fall asleep or somethin’, Mr. Gizzle? Lmao @ tha hook: “Press one to accept”; like, what a mind to think of this track, Fresh!! Silly hook for a laidback vibe but it works well with tha locked-up bullshit. Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse & it a lil’ dry with this vibe, still; boring rate can seem high, here… Keepin’ it movin’ with tha 3^rd verse, here & I’m like, “Anotha verse?!” As this track drags on… Can I “Press” [2] to go to tha next track, lmao? Lmao, tha “Press One” shit’s at tha end, dubbed; good-ole Fresh! My Rating: 3.8

 

 

12. “Jungle” feat. Juvenile
>>> Sounds like a cool lil’ beat; now, Fresh havin’ fun with tha “Jungle” SFX? Glad he entertained, even tho tha ratings aren’t in tha 4.0 range fa me… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse & it’s soundin’ aight wit your laidback delivery, here; how will it continue in tha “Jungle”? Tha hook sounds like an uncredited Juvie; cool lil’ untamed “animal in tha jungle.” Keepin’ this shit goin’ with tha 2^nd verse, here, as you’re comin’ through wit more rhymes that are okay; not much else fa me ta say… Keepin’ it movin’ wit you on tha 3^rd verse, as well, comin’ through wit more rhymes; keep infectin’ dem “rabies,” I guess? My Rating: 4.1

 

 

13. “I Know” feat. Lil’ Wayne

>>> Sounds like a more hyped-up production, finally; pretty nice… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse from you & it str8; you comin’ through fa tha streetz, of course. Hearin’ tha hook from Weezy & it’s soundin’ nice wit how he delivers it; all about “tha game” & it “on lock,” here! Keepin’ it movin’ wit you on tha 2^nd verse, here, comin’ through wit some good shit, continuously… Keepin’ it goin’ wit you on tha 3^rd verse, here, comin’ through wit lots of knowledge, it seems like? You “know” a lot, on this verse; good delivery. My Rating: 4.2

 

 

14. “Bounce With Me”
>>> Sounds like a good lil’ 1^st verse from you, here; beat pretty nice fa a slower one, too… Hearin’ tha hook & it aight; thought it would have more energy fa a title called “Bounce With Me”… Keepin’ it goin’ with tha 2^nd verse, here & it sux that you couldn’t have “dirty urine,” durin’ these troubled tymes. Luckily, fa me, in 2021, I can have THC “urine,” courtesy of my medical card! Needless to say, not too bad with tha verse. Of course, this almost-five-minute track continues with a 3^rd verse…; you sound aight, as you continue to deliver in a laidback style. My Rating: 3.7

 

 

15. “Get In Line” feat. Juvenile

>>> Feelin’ tha energy in this beat; let’s see if we can get a 4.0-range! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse from Juvie & it’s pretty poppin’; 5-0-4 at its finest! What about tha hook? Did I just doze off or somethin’? Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse & it’s you, comin’ through wit your typical, street-soundin’ shit fa tha mic, here; not bad… Am I up to tha 3^rd verse (you)? Seems like I’m gettin’ lost with when this hook exactly comes in…? Now, I hear tha hook & it’s cool wit how Juvie comin’ through wit tryna “point” tha people out; good shit. Of course, a minute-long outro; Juvie, Juvie, Juvie… My Rating: 3.9

 

 

16. “Run With My Chopper”
>>> Beat sounds good but I feel like this track gon drag or somethin’…; not bad wit how you comin’ through wit tha 1^st verse, tho. Hearin’ tha hook & it sounds softer than I expected; thought this was gon be more aggressive? Still, a cool lil’ track, tho more relaxed… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse & it str8 wit how you comin’ through fa tha hood, once again… Keepin’ this movin’ with tha 3^rd verse & it’s soundin’ okay; once again, anotha 3^rd verse that just seems like it coulda been avoided/track coulda been shorter. Also, seems like anotha long outro… My Rating: 3.7

 

 

17. Tyma Talkin’ (Tyma)
>>> This dude with his comedic-ass… My Rating: N/A

 

 

18. “Problems”
>>> A distorted title part, just like it was “Intergalactic”… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse & it sounds like an okay lil’ street-like flow, over this street-soundin’ beat; not bad… Only on to tha 2^nd verse, here & I’m feelin’ bored; just seems like a long track, once again… Like, this hook & title part; why all computerized? That ain’t tha B Gizzle style… Keepin’ it movin’ with tha 3^rd verse & this tyme, tha 3^rd verse’s soundin’ catchier than most 3^rd verses/tha other verses on here; keep holdin’ tha beat down… Also, there’s an outro from Fresh, here, comin’ through, expressin’ tha 2000’s “Problems”… My Rating: 3.0

 

 

19. “Ah Ha…”
>>> Sounds like a good beat fa tha 504 streetz; hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse & it’s cool wit how you comin’ wit it, too… Sounds like a catchy lil’ hook with tha title part; now, this where your catchiness was missin’ on most of this album! Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse & it str8/cool wit what you bringin’, here… Let’s see how this 3^rd verse turns out ta sound… Sounds like a price list of values, based off of what you got? Sounds good, since you were reppin’ values strong back then! My Rating: 4.1

 

 

20. “He Used 2 Be A Man”
>>> Endin’ with a cool-soundin’ beat sound, tho more on tha laidback vibe fa tha streetz… Seems like tha 1^st verse more on a storytellin’ tip, as far as tha lyrics & flow; not really tha catchiest fa me. Hearin’ tha hook & it good fa tha streetz; only just an okay listen fa me, tho. Keepin’ it movin’ with tha 2^nd verse, here, comin’ through wit some mo facts from tha streetz; decent, song-wise… Keepin’ this movin’ with tha 3^rd verse, soundin’ okay; once again, it’s anotha 3^rd verse! My Rating: 3.3

 

 

Overall: Seemed like this album had too many decent cuts; too many tracks didn’t need a 3^rd verse & Fresh’s productions were more on a laidback tip, fa tha most part. I know you consistently bring tha heat, so we’ll see how tha next B.G. release turns out ta sound, wheneva I review it!

Review #1,876: Lil' Wayne "Tha Block Is Hot"

Reviewed on 12.17.2019 (Review #1,876)

Lol, look at my next review in my Louisiana Reviewz Marathon: Lil’ Wayne Tha Block Is Hot, released in 1999 on Cash Money Records & Universal Records; album produced by Mannie Fresh! Start Time: 2:53 PM | End Time: 4:02 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!
