Review #1,133: Young Wee-zo "Talk Now (The DVD)"

Reviewed on 3.04.2012 (Review #1,133)



Well, ‘bout ta fly ta Florida ta work on my proposal and see family, 2morrow afternoon. However, lemme get a review I forgot outta tha way: Here’s my review for Young Wee-zo Talk Now (The DVD)! Start Time: 9:29 PM | End Time: 12:07 AM


Quick Note: I rate each scene from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care what’s what! As long as it’s cool and good enough for me to like it! I look for style, and then tha storyline. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings (if a scene 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 see it) so any scene can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> ” iz what I’m sayin’ before I see tha scene; anything after I type “ >>> ” iz what I think of tha scene while I’m watching it. If use of tha word “swag” iz frequent, there’s auto-tune, or lots of talkin’ about money, hoes, and stuntin’ 100,000x (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

01. “Thuggin’ It & Lovin’ It (Commercial)” (0:00 – 1:34)
What’s first? >>>

0:00: Got a dude wit a rag tied to his neck… Looks like a recap wit older clips; nice job.

1:15: Looks like a white dude wit some shootin’… My Rating: 4.0


02. “Sub 0^ (Ice Man Edition)” (1:34 – 4:30)
Looks like it gon be a dude dat’s cold on tha mic? How ‘bout cold in-person, too? Lemme find out… >>>

2:03: What’s this Diddy shit and non-Louisiananess goin’ on? SMH; I thought this was all Louisiana, especially Millionaire Entertainment? Maybe, this iz a sponsor? Still, you’re turnin’ me off… Also, rappers that have been instinct for a while? I have to give it up for tha asses, though; at least that’s a turn-on for me! No feedback on this song in tha background, either…

4:24: Yup, looks like a sponsor; still, keep it Louisiana/Millionaire Entertainment-related!! My Rating: 1.3


03. “Millionaire Entertainment” (4:30 – 6:26)
Can we please get on track, Louisiana style? >>>

4:30: Okay, I see tha “Millionaire Entertainment” beginning… Damn, another commercial/sponsor? Of course, I prolly seen this before; an okay recap. My Rating: 4.2


04. “Young Wee-zo “Talk Now (The DVD) (Intro)” (6:26 – 10:40)
Next up… >>>

6:26: I see tha disclaimer; glad you put it, once again.

6:55: Interestin’ beginning wit tha sleepin’ in tha bed, and tha shit consumed. I dunno about wearin’ socks, though; ain’t it hot in Louisiana?

7:16: Okay, Wee-zo, looks like you gon brush your teeth? Oh, washin’ tha face; I see. Unfortunately, I don’t wash my face, so I’m not used to people seein’ dat; I barely go out and I shower frequently, anyway.

7:33: Lol, it’s like, we get ta see you get dressed and shit, lol; A Day In Tha Life Of Weezo iz what you should’ve called this, lol!

7:43: Looks like it gon be a music video for “I’m Da Shit”?

7:52: Booooooooo!!! You smoke cigarettes!!! Where da kush at, lol?!

8:06: Nice door-transition effect!

8:07: Nice text and outside view!

8:10: “Pills (Remix)” video? Lol, I keep gettin’ carried away; seems like tha real intro ta dis DVD! Nice beginning wit tha intro credits!

8:32: Oh, so that was really you wit tha gold chain on, from tha previous editions of Thuggin’ It & Lovin’ It? I would’ve neva known who you was…

8:50: Oh, tha recappin’ of scenes…

9:10: Lol, it looks like two men sleepin’ together, outside; sorry, that’s just my first instinct… Rofl @ how you keep sayin’, “Wuzzam, mayne,” especially wit dat stance!!

9:33: So, you’re “Baton Rouge weed,” huh (did I hear correct)? If so, get rid of dem cigarettes!!! Interestin’ ta have guns tatted on ya chest. After a 4-year, 2-week, 2-day hiatus, on February 8, 2012, I saw a gun, again. I went to my brother’s detention center worker, and he showed my mom, lil’ brother, and myself his rifle, lol!

9:54: Rofl, how many times did you just say, “huh”? Gotta “luv it,” like “I Luv It” says!!

10:04: Looks like tha recap of when you were on Thuggin’ It & Lovin’ It 2; gotta love all those dreads, lol! My Rating: 4.5


05. “I Bang” (10:40 – 13:24)
[No preview due to I didn’t know where tha scene split into tha next one] >>>

10:40: Ooh @ tha weed!! Looks like hood reppin’. Instead of a music video, it looks more like music, mixed wit scenes. Parked in tha handicap sp—oh yea, you’re retarded, I forgot. Gotta give you props fa saggin’, a lil’, ‘cause I would think people would think I’m a target, if I was slightly saggin’… Either way, I like how this iz takin’ place in a store; what don’t I like? Oh, shit yea!! My laptop’s background changed ta Amy Schumer!! Gotta really luv tha mood now!!!!!

12:34: You look a lil’ like my aunt Judy, here, wit tha face; lol, those shades!! I like how you’re randomly encounterin’ people; I wonder when people—frequently and quickly—gon notice me in person? Guess I gotta wait ‘til I get ta Louisiana? I’m really glad I’m gettin’ ta see you in action, real-time wise! My Rating: 4.6


06. “Cuttin’ Up (Music Video)” (13:24 – 17:12)
[No preview due to I didn’t know where tha scene split into tha next one] >>>

13:24: Ooh, inside-tha-car scenes? I see some “Cuttin’ Up” shit goin’ on, here, song wise… It looks like a music video; I can finally divide these review sections, now. I really like tha fast camera shots; lol, not many music videos I be seein’ have more than, like, five scenes. When I do my music videos, I shoot approximately 100 – 200 scenes, usually for each line. I made a presentation on creating a music video, and I got an easy A on it, last semester! I like how Troy’s drivin’; tha grillz!!! Of course, great job wit tha vid! You already know I reviewed tha song, and it goes real great wit this whole vibe! My Rating: 4.7


07. “Memories” (17:12 – 19:58)
>>>

17:12: Ambulance? You got such a great style to you, wit how you be rockin’ ur clothes and shit; gotta feel it… Hopefully, you can always support and acknowledge what I be doin’, especially for you, ya feel me? Glad you’re “smokin’ on [you] some purp;” that’s da bidness!! I have a feelin’ tha “Memory” music video gon come outta nowhere, based off this graveyard scene… Or, “Memories”… “Lotta people dyin’ ova bullshit;” perfect reason to why “people” shouldn’t get into beefs wit each other. I feel like beefin’ wit someone makes someone qualify for gettin’ murdered. Glad you luv dat “blunt in [yo] hand;” that’s tha way you wanna “die,” huh? At least you got a legacy portrait depicted, already!

19:49: I feel jealous wit all dat hot weather, green trees!! Then again, I’m only 20 hours from seein’ it, as a 7-day tease!! It’s boring, consistent, 20 – 40-degree weather up here, wit no trees… Since it faded to black, I’m just gonna end this scene at 19:58. My Rating: 4.5


08. “Crayola Boyz” (19:58 – 21:00)
What could be next? >>>

19:58: Ready for some “Pills”? Lol, I sound so impatient or somethin’… Looks like hood luv, mixed wit tha instrumental…

20:16: Damn, that’s a tree-length of dreads, it seems li—or, should I say, branches, lol? Love it!!!

20:31: Who tha dude in tha white tanktop wit tha white earphones on? I mean, it must be your whole click that be “da shit,” just like you say…?

20:35: I thought there was dice on tha ground, but it’s non-alcoholic bottles?

20:42: Oh, “Crayola Boyz” iz what tha white-tanktopped, white-earphoned dude’s posse iz? I’ll be on tha lookout! Shit, what was I ‘bout ta say…? … … Oh yea, gotta luv how everyone has their own, urban dialect! Always interestin’ ta hear, especially from tha hood, lol!

20:54: Runnin’? It’s not like it’s tha cops…; guess this scene’s over… My Rating: 4.4


09. “Sam I Am” (21:00 – 21:10)
Ooh, Sam I Am in tha buildin’!! Of course, I know why, but I didn’t think there’d be pre-music video footage!!! >>>

21:00: Cool check-in, includin’ Wee-zo, and a random appearance from Lil’ Yella, it looks like, to tha left… ? Lol, so short ‘cause it looks like tha “Pills (Remix)” music video ‘bout ta play! My Rating: 4.4


10. “Pills (Remix) (Music Video)” (21:10 – 25:31)
Yeah!!! >>>

21:10: I really like tha whole 2nd floor people hangin’ out; guess that’s what it looks like in tha projects? Gotta luv tha footage, even though it’s only a couple shots… Lol @ Young Ready’s part comin’ outta nowhere; thumbs up for tha new scene. His main scene reminds me of a baseball field… And, Sam jumped into, what looks like, tha car show scene, and it looks like a typical, hot, Louisiana, Summer day… My Rating: 4.4


11. “Young Ready” (25:31 – 26:19)
Betta not mention anything ‘bout a phone or else I’ll get upset!!! >>>

25:31: Not bad, so far; I really like tha camera shot and angle… My Rating: 4.2


12. “Dutch” (26:19 – 27:21)
Not sure what I’m expectin’…

26:19: Oh, tha “So-Called…” music video? Oh wait, freestylin’; have I seen this before? Either way, nice job, especially on camera! My Rating: 4.7


13. “Young Wee-zo” (27:21 – 29:22)
Next, it’s… >>>

27:21: Nice view; anotha Wee-zo scene. However, not everybody should be a “Mr. ___,” especially a song title; it sounds like a one-hit-wonder diagnosis, particularly in unknown peoples’ eyes. Thumbs up fa havin’ more “souljaz;” not sure how you pull it off. Appearances from more people, includin’ La’Keith, and my big dawg, Troy Da Triggaman! Not sure about tha “hide ya bitch” shit… A “Rambo” tattoo? Surprised you’re super dedicated like dat! I’m not sure when I’ll eva get a tattoo, especially of another person (non-family member?). Really, I don’t know how you pull it off by havin’ other people have you in their mind, when you’re not with them, in person… My Rating: 4.3


14. “Talk Now (Music Video)” (29:22 – 33:25)
Tha next thing we got iz… >>>

29:25: A “Talk Now” music video? Really lookin’ forward ta seein’ this, includin’ tha whole ‘black attire’ thing goin’ on… Nice appearance from Dirty Dane, too; you, Dutch & Dirty Dane creatin’ a 3x bangin’ track!!! Really luvin’ tha woods background; you doin’ ya thang, here… Time fa some Dirty Dane? Lookin’ forward ta—he goin’ off, of course!! “Surrounded by purple, and plenty of gars!” I’m glad I was able ta buy a Thuggin’ It & Lovin’ It shirt from y’all, reppin’ hard! I hope I get ta talk ta Dirty Dane real soon, even ta kick it wit him in tha long run would be cool, too. Speakin’ of what I just said, Dutch, too; he always reppin’ as a Thuggin’ It & Lovin’ It representa to tha fullest! Lol @ tha glasses in tha studio; I feel like, those that rock glasses seem to be either jackin’ Kevin Gates’ current look, or look nerdy… I believe this iz tha 1st time I’m hearin’ this song, itself; another hot banga from you, Wee-zo. It fits in-between decent and great, for me. I really like tha music video; all y’all reppin’ harder than a bitch! My Rating: 4.8


15. “Young Wee-zo, Dirty Dane & Dutch” (33:25 – 34:03)
This next thang gon be what? >>>

33:25: Ooh, iz it all three of y’all talkin’? Lookin’ forward ta hearin’ and seein’!!! Ewe @ Dirty Dane smokin’ a cigarette; kush izn’t that far away!! Gotta give it up ta Dutch, here; he seems ta be reppin’ hard on tha camera! This time, it’s Dutch ova Dirty Dane, camera wise, but for tha “Talk Now” music video, it was Dirty Dane ova Dutch, for me… My Rating: 4.4


16. “24/7” (34:03 – 35:49)
>>>

34:03: Sounds and looks like some Troy Da Triggaman music promotion!! I wonder what tha ass shots have ta do wit dis gangsta shit, lol?

34:16: Now, a lil’ bit of a check-in? Lookin’ forward ta seein’! He has a shitload of street cred and value to him; gotta give him millions of thumbs up, ya feel me?! Thumbs up ta tha golds, once again!!

34:45: Ooh, shit yea, tha “studio,” just like you said! Lol @ all them white cups…; also, thumbs up ta havin’ a bunch of people in tha studio, Millionaire Entertainment click or not! I wonder, how hard was it ta get err-body ta be there? Ooh, an EQ-produced joint comin’ up? Let’s see what’s up!! My Rating: 4.4


17. “What U Wanna Do (Music Video)” (35:49 – 39:13)
Lookin’ forward to seein’ all dis shit!!! >>>

35:49: Like tha asses; kinda odd when I see a dude wit no shirt on, though, based off first instinct… Lol, even weirder: it looked like one of tha girls on tha bed was eating tha other girl, lol? One thing I luv wit Troy’s songs iz how there’s at least 100 cusses in ‘em; I find it funny, but I find myself gettin’ stronger everytime I edit a song wit so many cusses in ‘em. My Rating: 4.5


18. “Troy Da Triggaman & EQ” (39:13 – 39:42)
For some reason, just by seein’ EQ outta nowhere, and for tha first time, I have huge anticipation!!! I dunno what it iz; seems random!!! >>>

39:13: Seems like a cool dude, in-person that iz. I bet he gets patted on tha back by at least 100s of other dudes, prolly; he lucky to get tha attention… Thumbs up ta Troy fa lettin’ tha word out about tha producers and err-thang goin’ on wit Millionaire Entertainment! My Rating: 4.4


19. “Gurilla Hustle Commercial” (39:42 – 40:11)
I’m lookin’ forward ta seein’ this commercial; you know this iz one of those fiend-for albums!!! >>>

39:42: Nice job wit tha commercial, includin’ dat “Hustle Man” joint, as a newbie! “In stores 2011”? *Checks website, March 4, 2012 style* A big N-to-tha-O! My Rating: 4.4


20. “Young Wee-zo / Restaurant” (40:11 – 41:25)
More of dat Wee-zo fa my system!!! >>>

40:11: Ooh, a place ta eat; lookin’ forward ta figurin’ out where you’re at! “Beans,” I see, Fart-zo, lol? Nah, I’m just playin’! Lol @ tha “power up;” you just say it like it’s nothin’!! “Smoke me a cigarette;” no, a blunt!!! Okay, I’ll give it to ya, right when you said, “Light me up some of dat shit…” “Do a lotta shows; fuck a lotta hoes;” I knew tha cliché saying was comin’… My Rating: 4.1


21. “AWOL” (41:25 – 43:39)
I feel like I’m gettin’ high off tryna complete this DVD, due to I’m flyin’ tomorrow, and wanna get things done, no matter if I’m tired or not! >>>

41:25: A lil’ check-in; lookin’ forward to tha concert! Oh, that’s why there’s those non-alcoholic bottles: pill pop—jiggalatin’! Even though I don’t quite get it, I guess it makes certain people like you pow—oh my God, tha drink’s overflowin’!! I have a younger brother who be doin’ tons of pillz, but me, I’ve rarely seen ‘em be consumed by someone, in-person. One of my only memories was, approximately, March/April, 2007, when I was in my 1st college’s dorm. I remember seein’ someone devour some pills, and I was like, “…l…o…l…?” Nice shot wit tha “AWOL” song playin’ in tha background, though! My Rating: 4.5


22. “Thugg 2” (43:39 – 44:57)
Uh oh, time fa tha performin’!!! >>>

43:41: Lol @ this “Thugg 2” title; seems like you like to get tickled, lol (based off tha beat sounds)? Nice drivin’ scenes, in tha dark… What’s up wit tha one dude next to you rubbin’ your stomach? Um…, uh…--no comment. How does he get away wit me? I’m not tryna be pick-on-y, but if I eva did that, there’d be a storm of controversy! It’s like, iz it a Wee-zo adopted twin or somethin’? My Rating: 4.0


23. “Pills (Performance)” (44:57 – 47:58)
>>>

44:57: An old dude? Sounds random how he says, “nigga.” Still, what if my rappin’ granny was dancin’ to “Pills”? You know she be “on dem (stayin’ alive) pillz” that keep her super healthy, ya feel me? Good performance footage, includin’ some crazy ass shakin’! How come it doesn’t sound like performing audio? You should’ve included performing audio… My Rating: 4.4


24. “Big Cheese” (47:58 – 48:35)
Let’s see and hear him check in! >>>

47:58: Good, includin’ a La’Keith appearance. My Rating: 3.8


25. “Murda Shit / Parking Lot” (48:35 – 53:48)
>>>

48:35: Outside scene, durin’ tha night. Also, tha “Murda Shit” song’s playin’, includin’ a check-in from you, too! Lol, how many words you say per minute?! Crazy, crazy!!

49:33: OMG, look who it iz!!! “DJ B-Real!!!” This has to be my favorite part in tha DVD, aside from tha music videos!!! He looks like a regular dude appearin’, but so legendary, includin’ tha amount of value he has inside him!!! Personally, I’m thinkin’, “That’s tha dude I gon be meetin’ soon, hopefully?” It’s crazy; gotta keep pushin’ what I be doin’ fa people, especially supportin’!! However, I gotta keep myself above others, when it comes ta doin’ things! Lol @ now-smokin’ DJ B-Real! Uh, where’s tha blunt? Really, came from “playin’ ball”? No wonder why I thought he randomly appeared, lol! C’mon, people, dap DJ B-Real!!! He may have appeared randomly, but think…………legendary, value wise!!!

50:24: Yes, another DJ B-Real appearance!! “R.I.P.” to them people… Lol, again, right after B-Real was done talkin’, he took anotha hit. Uh, where’s tha blunt? Lol… Lol, I still don’t know how all these people know how ta talk so easily, especially to say so much. It’s like, how iz it not hard?

52:04: Iz that tha hair-stylist dude that added me on Facebook? You know that shit’s A+!!!

52:30: Lol @ tha hard dick feelings about tha Gin, no offense, as I’m just sayin’…; what if I had grape juice in my hand? Drink dignity, or would I just look like a virgin?

52:42: Lol, looks like a DJ B-Real dude, wit either a down-tower-lookin’ hair style, or somethin’ similar; who iz he?

53:07: Tha dude wit tha Gin looks like he could be someone’s #1 bodyguard… Still, I dunno what’s so great about holdin’ a drink.

53:42: Lol, a dude wit a purple shirt on, comes through wit some tattoos. It’s like, damn, how does he speak quick, urban dialect outta nowhere? Surprised how every single person’s so social! Would I make it to a DVD, Wee-zo? I’m quiet…, but when someone that dislikes me’s in tha picture, I become silent. I’m tryna be like this girl Lana, from my 8th grade school, who didn’t speak a word in class ‘til about six, seven months after I first saw her, to dem haterz! They could act fake, like they’re cool wit me, and I’ll give ‘em tha Lana approach! I have to say, I really liked that this lil’ scene was on a longer note; lots of interestin’ shit, includin’ tha big surprise: DJ B-Real!!! My Rating: 4.6


26. “Thuggin’ It & Lovin’ It (The Movie) (Commercial)” (53:48 – 54:37)
What’s next? >>>

53:48: Looks like a serious scene, for tha streetz…; who’s speakin’ as tha narrator, here? Oh, a “movie” that’s “comin’ soon”? Cool; oh, it’s Dutch’s song… My Rating: 4.2


27. “Outro” (54:37 – 58:22)
>>>

54:37: Troy Da Triggaman in tha buildin’!! Wee-zo looks a lil’ different, to tha right; gotta give props to tha stances and styles!

55:10: Now, we got a dude in a pink polo; gotta luv how tha peeps just randomly keep comin’ outta nowhere!

55:35: Look at tha Wee-zo, just randomly talkin’ to tha camera, in his pilled-out stance, lol!!

55:55: Iz that who I communicate wit on tha phone (tha booking #)? No wonder why he didn’t say much, in tha background; managin’ style… As far as Troy givin’ tha people “what they want,” cool, but it’s usually always about tha creator!!

57:19: Yea, “shout out ta … Big Head;” gotta luv how he thought I was on quaaludes tha first and only time I talked to him on tha phone, last May!! I hope I get a shout out on here, soon; I deserve one!! Anyway, should I call this “Outro”? My Rating: 4.3


28. “I’m Da Shit / Credits” (58:22 – 1:00:41)
What’s left? >>>

58:22: “I’m Da Shit”ness! More dancin’ than an official music video…; as always, I really like tha fastness wit tha camera! Damn, it’s ending! I didn’t think I’d be fully awake for tha whole thang!! Props fa tha credits and fa doin’ tha damn thang wit this DVD!! My Rating: 4.4


Overall: I didn’t do a ½time ‘cause I didn’t know how many totals scenes there were, at first. But, whether I should count #2 or not, I thought this was somethin’ real nice, once again!! I kinda didn’t learn much about you, Wee-zo, but I got ta see some tight footage; gotta luv tha 225 footage, especially comin’ from Millionaire Ent.!!! Always wishin’ y’all buku luck, to tha fullest!!!

Review #1,119: Tha Glacier Boy, Y-Kean & Percy Campbell "Grindmode (LMG Compilation: Vol. 1)"

Reviewed on 1.18.2012 (Review #1,119)


This next review iz a three-way combo: Tha Glacier Boy, Y-Kean & Percy Campbell Grindmode (LMG Compilation: Vol. 1)…; really, Percy Campbell wit Lajah Music Group, again? Didn’t expect dat; wonder where dat came about? Start Time: 2:23 PM | End Time: 2:51 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 100,000x (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

© 2012 CD Review (Review #1,119) reviewed on 1.18.2012 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “Grind Mode”
Of course, gotta have all three on tha starting song! Odd that tha title of tha mixtape iz a compound word, but this iz two words? >>> I’m likin’ tha new sound, here; feelin’ tha hook, wit two simple words, lol! Good job from Glacier Boy, on tha 1st verse; nice job wit tha consistent rhymes… Percy’s soundin’ good, on tha 2nd verse; consistency here, too… Time fa tha lady, Y-Kean, ta end dis off… Not too bad wit tha rhymes; they’re acceptable… Good job, once again, from Maserati Myers on tha beat! My Rating: 4.3


02. “50’s & 100’s”
Just Tha Glacier Boy, here; G Money Baby—whoeva dat iz—on tha beat… >>> A lil’ good and typical, at tha same time, wit how this beat sounds… Tha content, here, iz pretty typical as fuck, but I don’t seem too bored… Hopefully, when this dude says, “50’s & 100’s,” that he can actually afford my services, which are hella cheap!! We’re talkin’, most are under “50” and even “100”! As for tha rhymes, they sound pretty good; nothin’ ta say negative about this right now… My Rating: 4.2


03. “On Dat Ciroc” Feat. Level
J Hook = EQ? I’m confused, especially since I heard tha sound, too… Also, non-‘remix’? My Current Rating: 4.7


04. “I’m A Hustler”
LOL @ “Produced by: N/A” on tha ID; that’s prolly why DatPiff removed it from tha folder, so lemme hear this sample… >>> SMH @ an old-ass beat like dis, from over seven years ago! Talk about how faggy those dayz were!! But, at least Y-Kean’s consistent! My Rating: 3.8


05. “On, On, On” Feat. MuttaGutta
Izn’t Mutta Gutta’s name not compound? Either way, lookin’ forward to hearin’ some new Glacier Boy music, courtesy of La’Keith on tha beat!! >>> Really likin’ tha hyperness, here; gotta luv it, especially tha production!! Dat Mutta dude’s pretty serious!! Anotha “money” song? Iz that Tha Glacier Boy’s only topics? This 1st verse iz okay, but too many “swag” words, back ta back… Tha 2nd verse ain’t too bad, either, but tha 1st verse was much better ‘cause it actually didn’t have tha same words in it! My Rating: 4.3


06. “Wait A While” Feat. Jamie Clark
Not likin’ tha title; it looks like a remake? La’Keith on tha beat, though. >>> What’s this quiet sound? This has nothin’ ta do wit grindin’, or tha mixtape title, itself! Prolly should’ve left this on an album, instead of a grind mixtape. Yup, I was right about tha remake; iz this even called for, right now? Plus, it sounds like La’Keith turned pussy wit this soft-ass production; revert back to a dude!! Finally, hearin’ Y-Kean rap, and it’s decent, but overall, tha song definitely ain’t fa me! My Rating: 2.3


½time: A 3.9-rated CD, so far; whatever has happened so far, I know dat I’ve been pretty anticipated, and still am!


07. “Here I Go”
Just Percy Campbell on tha track; have I heard this before, courtesy of Blitz Beats? >>> Sounds familiar, but I don’t think I heard it… Cool voice, as always, and tha rhymes are entertainin’, mainly ‘cause of tha voice. Tha beat’s startin’ ta sound non-Louisiana, which it comes into question, right now: iz it really a real beat, or taken offline? So, this was made last month, since you said, “December”? At least it’s on a recent tip. My Rating: 3.7


08. “So High”
Anotha joint by just Percy Campbell; Ice Redd comin’ through wit tha beat, so lemme see if this familiar… Damn, it’s not; how odd wit my weird expectations… >>> Sounds like an okay start; a lil’ soft… LOL, even gave a shout out ta “Hawk”? Guess it’s ‘best friends’, now? And, it’s snowin’ and snowin’ out, right now… Rhymes are okay, but tha hook’s pretty ni—oh yea, this was a music video! That’s how I remember it, from hella long ago, which was good. You already know, you gotta luv this kinda content, no matter how tha beat sounds!! My Current Rating: 4.1


09. “Wut It Do”
Percy Campbellless, here, lol, but La’Keith on tha beat, so let’s see “wut it do!” >>> Sounds like a funny, attitude-type hook/question of tha title; gotta feel it! Y-Kean has an okay 1st verse goin’ on, right now… Time fa tha 2nd verse, wit Glacier Boy… Oh no, automatic-soundin’ rhymes wit tha “money” and tha “bad bitch;” ever rap about bein’ a virgin? Lyrics are startin’ ta sound gay and typical; think I betta end this… My Rating: 3.6


10. “Let’s Toast” Feat. Jamie Clark
A Glacier Boy song, produced by The Synthesis… >>> What’s up wit tha fade-in intro wit a gay-soundin’ beat? Kinda okay, but not grindin’ music… I find it ironic dat Jamie Clark was barely in this ‘til tha end; sounds better than tha previous feature she was on… My Rating: 3.2


11. “Gotta Get Dat Paper” Feat. Adlib
I remember this from two years ago (Percy Campbell’s song wit Y-Kean), produced by Ice Redd. Because I know Adlib a lil’ more, now, it’s not as bad as I thought it was, previously… My Current Rating: 3.0


12. “Act A Asshole” Feat. Q-Red & Young Ready
Of course, J Buc beat, but welcome to Faggville, 2010 style! It took one main person on this song ta ruin everything—one dat invaded my brain over somethin’ free!!! Ugh, 2010, 2009, hate those years!!! Thank God I’ll neva have to hear this song again, but I feel embarrassed to have a really high current rating, still. Either way, that doesn’t mean I’ll even spend one second listenin’ to this again! Was 22, now movin’ on to 24! My Current Rating: 4.8


13. “Can’t See It Through”
Endin’ it wit a Y-Kean song, produced by… not available? Not really lookin’ forward, then. >>> Sounds like an ending song to an album; why iz this on a ‘mixtape’? Really not gettin’ tha rap/sing combination; sounds too weird for a lady, now-a-dayz… Beat’s hella soft, and ain’t even close to my style! My Rating: 1.4


Overall: Well, didn’t turn out to be tha best-soundin’ mixtape; prolly need to take those album cuts off to make it better! But, at least there’s a coupla new jointz in my pocket, now…

Reviewed on 5.25.2011 (Review #954)


My 3rd review today iz Pounds “Necessary Hustlin’ 1.5 (Hosted by Big Jay)! Start Time: 10:48 AM | End Time: 11:10 AM


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. 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”
>>> LOL, it sounds like Big Jay said, “Thirty Third,” lol. I remember tha previous mixtapes wit tha great skits; this intro goes wit it! LOL, you added some rappin’ to it; really feelin’ tha fastness! I guess I should rate this ‘cause of tha final 30 seconds! My Rating: 4.5


02. “Dope Money” Feat. Lil’ Cali
Good thing fa O.B. on tha beat! You already know what I had ta say ‘bout dis one! My Current Rating: 4.5

LOL! I thought I neva heard dis before but I did and you already know, anything wit “weed” in tha title iz official!! My Current Rating: 4.6


05. “I’m On” Feat. Foxx & []
A beat from Ice Redd, here; didn’t realize he produced it! Needed a song fa my radio show right afta []’s birthday so I went wit dis; good thing he sent me it! LOL @ tha—I dunno what ta call it—voice on tha hook. Anyway, tha 1st verse’s pretty kick-ass wit you on tha voice and delivery wit tha rhymes, lol! LOL @ Foxx on tha 2nd verse wit his “dyke” shit when it comes ta tha “bitches;” what about gay dudes, lol? Consistent shit from him, as always! Of course, save tha best fa last: [], although I really liked your part, Pounds! []’s pretty consistent wit what he’s got on tha mic; damn, how many punchlines, bruh? My Current Rating: 4.6


06. “Big Money”
Anotha “money” song? You should spend some on my commercials, videos, and myself! >>> Sounds good; I also like dat tha back cover looks similar to []’s “[]”! Anyway, anotha good song from you; can’t deny tha voice! Also, tha hook sounds good wit this screwed sample! My Rating: 4.3


07. “Dat’s How I’m Actin’” Feat. BluBlack
Forgot tha “’s” on tha back cover, lol? Of course, very hot song, especially wit BluBlack on tha feature and Ice Redd on tha beat!! My Current Rating: 4.7


08. “Ride Wit Me”
>>> Even though good, it was my least-rated on your “Necessary Hustlin’” CD, lol. My Current Rating: 3.8


½time: Of course, nothin’ but consistent shit from Pounds, ya dig?!? Can’t deny it, especially tha gifted voice!! Already, you’re at a 4.4 for tha CD rating; keep it up!!!


09. “So Fresh (Pt. 2)” Feat. Tic
Let’s hear tha 2nd part… >>> Not sure how good I remember tha 1st version but you know dis iz a plus, too. Tic sounds good; glad y’all frequently collaborate! My Rating: 4.0


10. Tha Drop Off (Skit)
Ooh, a skit! >>> Sounds refreshin’ ta hear; lol @ tha dialogue and all tha nouns included when “droppin’” shit “off,” lol! My Rating: N/A


11. “Bird Call” Feat. Young Gregory
A surprise collaboration, from before! Then again, I didn’t realize dat tha two of y’all were cousins; no wonder! My Current Rating: 4.3


12. “I Can Do It” Feat. Adlib
>>> Forgot tha “it” on tha back cover? Anyway, tha 1st ½ of tha hook’s a lil’ gay for me wit tha vocals but at least you keepin’ it semi-alive wit how you comin’ through! Real nice job wit tha 1st verse; I feel like I can handle tha whole entire hook, regardless! Tha 2nd verse sounds good, too; damn, how much “trap” shit you got? Do you remember date and time of when you first sold shit? My Rating: 4.1


13. “She Like”
>>> What’s wit tha laughin’ from Big Jay in tha beginning? Since when does he think shit’s funny? Ooh, this iz a faster-soundin’ song; likin’ how you come through wit some fast shit, this time! LOL, what more could I “like” about dis song? You keepin’ shit on ‘n’ poppin’, here! My Rating: 4.3


14. “Hate Follows” Feat. Carrie A
Who’s dis gurl? >>> Ooh, she raps; thought she sang or somethin’ to where I wouldn’t like this too much. Anyway, she sounds like a good representa; gotta show her luv! LOL, then, your grimy voice comes outta nowhere ta let err-body know; gotta luv tha unexpected, quickly! Oh, she iz singin’ on tha hook; it sounds good wit this beat, at least; I’m satisfied wit her rappin’ on tha intro, at least. My Rating: 4.2


15. “Hard Tymes”
An Ice Redd beat; forgot tha space on tha background? >>> Beat sounds poor on tha hook; what’s up wit this? Not really tha best fa me; good thing you have rappin’ on lock wit your flow and what you be doin’! Sometimes, it takes somethin’ extra for me to like… My Rating: 3.9


16. “Weed & Kodene (Screwed & Chopped Version)”
I had a feelin’ I thought I saw dis twice; thank God there’s a C&S version!! >>> Great resurrection wit this C&S shit!! I might like tha original version slightly betta but definitely thumbs up fa havin’ a C&S version!! Tha screwin’ prolly could’ve been a lil’ slower ‘cause your voice sounds nearly tha same, since it’s deep. My Rating: 4.5


Overall: This went just as hard, or even equivalent, to tha original CD; definite thumbs up!! Really felt tha new jointz; keep ‘em comin’, includin’ doin’ business wit me!

02. “Kill Diz Shit” Feat. Pounds
Cool, “diz shit” iz on here, lol! You had ta be in tha intro; dumb shit! Whoa, what a HOT hook wit tha consistentness of tha title and “shit” y’all spittin’!! I like, in tha 1st verse, “nigga owe me some money … I’mma hit up his grandma;” dumb shit!! “I leave a nigga dead like tha face on a quarter;” REAL NICE shit!!! :tu Pounds goin’ off on tha 2nd verse wit his “Levi’s” and shit; DEFINITELY luvin’ it, ya dig?!? My Current Rating: 4.5


03. “BMF” Feat. Rick Ross
LOL/SMH @ tha listed feature. >>> Too bad you included tha original part from Ross, too. :td Anyway, here you are on tha 1st verse, spittin’ good/betta rhymes than him!

You got dat good shit on tha hook; definite plus! Cali’s on tha 1st verse, spittin’ some good shit here. He keeps tha jam soundin’ like a jam, ya dig? You comin’ through wit tha real tight shit on tha 2nd verse. You can have tha same flow on every track; your voice ALWAYS holds it down each and every time, ya feel me?!?

05. “One Night Stand”
Yay!! Anotha one—Q-Red production!! He’ll prolly create tha mood fa dis song. >>> I had a feelin’ it was gonna be a lil’ slow on tha beat start.

>>> Kinda odd that he had ta stop tha CD just fa dis, lol? I know it was a HAVE-TO ‘cause it was him, lol… My Rating: N/A


07. “Act A Asshole” Feat. Q-Red & Young Ready
Tha J Buc-produced song’s on here, soundin’ REAL GR8 again!!! Tha beat start sounds interestin’ here; good beat!! Tha hook’s definitely focused here and iz tight! You’re on tha 1st verse and it sounds like you’re DEFINITELY havin’ “a grinda” status, ya dig? Q-Red on tha 2nd verse and it sounds cool wit him here! I had my anticipation ready in tha beginning! “Hey, hey, hey, hey! … Ham, not bologna!!” :rofl :rofl Good Ready shit goin’ on here in tha 3rd verse; he that focused, huh? Wish he would focus on me more wit certain thingz. Regardless, I’ll keep pumpin’ tha reviewz out there like it’s nothin’ (same thing wit tha videoz)! My Current Rating: 4.7


½time: HOT shit once again!! You’re surprisin’ me wit tha original tracks on this CD; keepin’ it REAL consistent!! Tha CD rating’s at 4.4 right now; good-ass shit!!!

LOL @ your “zig-zag” shit; interestin’ wit your “hilarious” shit, lol… Good “Nintendo” part, too… Anotha outro from Jay, lol? My Rating: 3.8


12. “My Swagga Right” Feat. Terrorizer & Chris James
Ooh, what’s this (even though I dislike overused “swag” shit now)? Chris James on tha beat, too, and who’s this Terrorizer dude? Thought it was Terror a.k.a. Cheez of Down Bad, lol. >>> Chris James = “This iz (this iz)” beat tag all along? Sounds catchy for what it iz on tha hook, lol… You’re spittin’ some pretty-good shit on tha 1st verse… Tha 2nd verse iz soundin’ pretty nice wit how they’re comin’ through on dis shit!

Tha 3rd review I have today iz Pounds “Necessary Hustlin’; Lajah Music Group in tha buildin’!! Start Time: 3:30 PM | End Time: 4:25 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.

© 2010 CD Review (Review #722) reviewed on 12.21.2010 by FrankieThaLuckyDog. Other than tha main artist or affiliated people with tha main artist, this review iz to not be used in anyone else’s words!



01. “Intro” / Young Carter Drop
Ooh, J Hook doin’ tha beat here! Also, Young Carter in tha buildin’ (who friend requested me on Facebook—I thought he was Carter Boy at first, lol)!! Should be GR8 ta hear!! >>> Real cool-soundin’ beat start here! LOL, it’s you doin’ ya thang in tha beginning! Ooh, rappin’! I guess tha drop’s all tha way at tha end; good shit here!! Just dat few seconds alone counts as a song rating and not just an intro, ya dig? Gotta luv your “I’m TELLIN’ ya” part; GR8 accent/voice/style!! Shit yea, Carter at tha end!! My Rating: 4.2


02. “Necessary Hustlin’” Feat. Adlib
Adlib’s features don’t really score dat high fa me so let’s see what happens wit dis song… >>> Dis ain’t a depressin’ song although his notes sound a lil’ depressin’. However, it’s a good hook fa what it iz; good content, too! You sound pretty good on tha 1st verse; dat voice of yours iz, just, GR8!! VERY GOOD 1st verse from you; addin’ dat energy and street shit, at tha same time, to tha track!! Tha 2nd verse sounds real nice—from you; good shit! Tha 3rd hook sounds a lil’ too weird; those high-noted, passionate-felt vocals do not mix wit this song/content. Ugh, tha wining! My Rating: 4.1


03. “Dat’s How I’m Acting” Feat. BluBlack
A beat by Ice Redd; lol, what a collab!! What’ll this sound like? >>> Shit yea, what HOTNESS!!! Feelin’ tha jammin’ vibe and BluBlack REALLY holdin’ down tha hook!! He’s even on tha 1st verse wit tha shit I’ve always luv, luv, LUVED from him!! Sounds like a GR8 single I gon be playin’ fa 2011, ya dig? You’re on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit tha tightness; luv tha voice of yours!! Didn’t think y’all knew each other! My Rating: 4.6


04. “Retarded” Feat. Tic & Sophisticated
This should be good; Pounds (you as LBS?) did tha beat, too! >>> I’m likin’ dis shit; nice and smooth lil’ beat wit a crunk-soundin’ hook! Tha 1st verse’s nice; you know how you bringin’ dis quality music ta my ears!! Tha 2nd verse sounds pretty good; Tic doin’ tha damn thang, showin’ his ass off, lol! Tha 3rd verse from Sophisticated’s good, too; consistent shit! My Rating: 4.2


05. Tha Drop Off (Skit)
Yay! You got skits on your CD; thumbs up! >>> Some interestin’ shit here; good shit, lol. I luv hearin’ skits and natural, real voices in person, ya dig? My Rating: N/A


06. “Dope Money” Feat. Lil’ Cali
Shit yea, anotha mega collab wit Cali on tha feature and O.B. on tha beat!! >>> Gotta LUV dis 225 shit!!! Tha hook’s DEFINITELY focused and picks up from where tha skit left off!! Shit, you’re REALLY doin’ tha damn thang on tha 1st verse!! Can’t explain HOW GR8 it iz ta hear dis voice of yours deliverin’ REAL HOT street shit!!! Here comes Cali, ready ta rip tha shit outta tha 2nd verse!! Good-ass shit from Cali on tha 2nd verse, ya dig? Young Carter on tha ending, too? Shit yea!! Y’all a REAL GR8 family!! My Rating: 4.5


07. “Weed & Kodene”
How tight will this be wit a title like dis? >>> Feelin’ this anticipatin’ start! Tha beat has a nice feel ta it and just by sayin’ only tha title in tha hook iz REAL TIGHT!! Really luvin’ tha content goin’ on here in tha 1st verse!! I wonder what it’s like ta live tha life of havin’, and buyin’, “weed & kodene”? I can’t picture it… I feel like a free bird wit all tha shit I do and have/have not done in my life. Tha 2nd verse tight, too! Nothin’ but a REAL HOT joint like dis; can’t get enough of your music on this CD!!! My Rating: 4.6


08. “Hard In Tha Paint” Feat. Adlib
Tell me, Waka’d-out singin’ on tha hook, right? You did tha beat so let’s see what’s good. >>> Iz this even tha kinda song that should be slow? Not anotha weird, mixed-up song… Actually, Adlib’s singin’ iz betta on this than tha “Necessary Hustlin’” song. LOL @ you on tha 1st verse; sounds really interestin’, regardless of tha different soundin’ for a “Hard In Tha Paint” title… DEFINITELY TIGHTNESS wit how you come through on tha flow and wit tha shit you spittin’!! Tha 2nd verse just keeps tha content on ‘n’ poppin’; you a fool wit dis one! My Rating: 4.2


½time: You DEFINITELY got yourself a REAL HOT CD right chea, ya dig?!? It’s all about dat HOT Lajah Music Group, presentin’ REAL TIGHT music to tha fullest!! So far, tha CD iz worth 4.3 thanx to all tha ratings combined; keep it up!!!


09. “Kill Diz Shit” Feat. Percy Campbell
Ohh, my dawg Percy on tha feature!! You know where dis goin’…!!! >>> He even had ta be in tha intro, too; dumb shit! Whoa, what a HOT hook wit tha consistentness of tha title and “shit” y’all spittin’!! I like, in tha 1st verse, “nigga owe me some money … I’mma hit up his grandma;” dumb shit!! “I leave a nigga dead like tha face on a quarter;” REAL NICE shit!!! :tu You’re goin’ off on tha 2nd verse wit your “Levi’s” and shit; DEFINITELY luvin’ it, ya dig?!? My Rating: 4.5


10. Tha Joke (Skit)
Ooh, anotha skit!! Definitely lookin’ forward ta hearin’ more!!! >>> WHERE DO THESE VOICES COME FROM?!? SO FUCKIN’ GR8!!!!!!!!!! LUV tha whole Southern vibe!!!!! Speakin’ of tha “45 in a 40” part, tha one and only time I witnessed a pulled-over scene was when my agent was drivin’ 40 in a 25, lol. It was weird… My Rating: N/A


11. “On A Jose” Feat. Percy Campbell
Okay, let’s see anotha Percy Campbell collab wit Lil’ Ken on tha beat!! >>> Slow beat start but 100% Southern!! Tha hook’s pretty catchy and you REALLY got it on lock on tha 1st verse here! Showin’ luv ta those locked up and err-thang! Oh, that was tha hook? Sounded pretty long but was DEFINITELY nice no matter how long it was! Tight shit goin’ on in tha 1st verse; all about not wantin’ ta go ta jail and shit. I dunno why people like goin’ ta jail (meanin’ dat you’re not alert enough to evade jail)? Here comes Percy on tha 2nd verse, spittin’ some shit ‘bout AJ (remember what I said in one of tha previous reviewz, Percy? You need an AJ song; this iz progressin’ ta be a good one in one verse)! I’m really likin’ how y’all brought it to tha table on dis one; DEFINITELY catchy!!! My Rating: 4.4


12. “Bird Call” Feat. Young Gregory
Ooh, dat boy Greg on tha feature!! Talk about a character!!! >>> Sounds like a pretty good beat ta rap off of. Greg already spittin’ shit, doin’ his thang on tha 1st verse! This DEFINITELY iz on a REAL NICE street level!! Greg a fool wit tha pill talk! :tu This CD DEFINITELY has a lot of radio show songs fa me; hope I can get a bunch of them on tha air! I know I’ll DEFINITELY do my thang wit it! Tha hook’s pretty cool; I like tha “bird call”, lol! Whoa! As fast as you’re goin’ on tha 2nd verse, I feel like I’m typin’ faster and faster, lol! I like tha lil’ long outro you got here, too! My Rating: 4.3


13. “I Know” Feat. Choppa 1 & Mutt
Keepin’ tha variable collaborations goin’, here are two dudes I fuck wit on tha feature wit you!! >>> Beat sounds like a Pop song but it sounds like you “know what [you’re] doin’” ‘cause tha way y’all come through iz nice! Choppa 1 startin’ dis thang off, doin’ his thang! I like his line about “[his] own shit,” lol; dumb shit!! Mutt sounds pretty good wit his own character/style in tha 2nd verse; good shit! Here you come on tha 3rd verse, even mo gutta; you know what it iz!! You and your “purple”; good shit! I wonder how you even started ta become in luv wit both purples, lol? My Rating: 4.2


14. “Ride Wit Me”
It’s just you; let’s get it! >>> A longer song (4:40); how will it go? Pretty good shit you got goin’ on and tha hook’s not too bad. I dunno if you’ll be able ta handle tha whole 4:4—ooh, “roll up this kush” ta start off tha 2nd verse; dumb shit!! Pretty good job on tha 2nd verse, too, ya dig? You’re talkin’ wit nearly two-and-a-half minutes left? I like your lil’ part but no need ta have tha last two minutes; it makes me dwell into boredism… My Rating: 3.8


15. “So Fresh” Feat. Tic
Anotha Tic feature! >>> Tha hook’s cool; somethin’ simple ta like wit a 225 perspective. You’re comin’ through wit dat greatness in tha 1st verse, though; dumb shit! Tic sounds pretty focused throughout tha 2nd verse, keepin’ tha rhymes consistent! “Purple—purple kush? Shid, I like dat!” :tu My Rating: 4.0


16. “Thinkin’ Of You”
Last song (which I thought was gonna be an outro—maybe, an outro’ll be at tha end of this?) and it’s produced by Ice Redd. How will it turn out fa me? Lemme hear… >>> A beat like this I don’t really go for. I do like that it’s sped up a lil’ but these sample-soundin’ beats are not me at all. I really like dat you’re a BEAST on tha vocals and mic here!! That’s tha plus and it makes tha rhymes in tha verses real nice! Tha hook? Ehh… nothin’ I’d comment on. Glad your voice can keep tha interest in a song alive!! My Rating: 3.9


Overall: You’re a BEAST!! I luv some of these reviewz I be doin’, ya dig?!? Good-ass shit; BUKU surprises!!! You have a SHITLOAD of REAL GR8 features from different labels of BR; thumbs up!!! Keep doin’ tha damn thang; hope you like dis shit!
