Review #1,126: Tim Thugga & Beezy Bird "The Best In The Business Vol. 1"

Reviewed on 1.19.2012 (Review #1,126)


 
Got my final review for today (it’s only 10:24 AM, right now) ‘cause I got an interview to do, beats I have to produce for my college’s news segment, a meeting I have to go to (to fight a grade), a quiz I have to study for, and a class. But, lemme get into this: Tim Thugga & Beezy Bird The Best In The Business Vol. 1 (Hosted by Go DJ Chilly Chill). Been anticipatin’ this! Even though it doesn’t say “Vol. 1” on tha front cover, I know it iz. Plus, izn’t this wit tha label Real Street Music? I’m basin’ that off of tha promo disc’s front cover… But, it’s Janis Joplin (R.I.P. 42 years)’s birthday today, so any insecure feelings I get from this review, I’m not gonna hold back on lettin’ ‘em out! Start Time: 10:31 AM | End Time: 11:40 AM


Disclaimer: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion! I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care how lyrical you are, as long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings. If a song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6 rating, I pretty much really love it, as it’s considered mindblowin’ when I hear it! Any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> ” iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song; anything after I type “ >>> ” iz what I think of tha song while I’m listening to it. If you use tha word “swag” frequently, have auto-tune in your vocals, or talk about nothin’ but money and hoes 100,000x (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

01. Intro Feat. DJ 5150, Big Jay & FrankieThaLuckyDog
What a lineup, especially me bein’ in tha 1^st of 17 on tha CD!! I feel honored, but wasn’t there ‘pose to be a back cover? *Checks* I see it as a hard copy in Tim Thugga’s pics, but not online? Oh well, I’ll just use what y’all put on DatPiff for tha tracklist. Once again, my name iz all one word, no spaces. >>> Nice beat goin’ on; didn’t expect one… DJ 5150’s first; no comment on most of what he said, except for “Tim Thugga & Beezy Bird.” Big Jay sounds good wit his part, here. Ooh, I like how I sound; Beezy Bird told me ta put tha “okay!!!” Nice shit for how I sound, even though it’s a lil’ hard ta hear me, but it’s great; “ruff!!” R.I.P. Cookie (“ruff”)! I have to say, one of tha best intros in a long time!! My Rating: N/A


02. “Bounce” Feat. Kevin F
Let’s hear it! >>> I never heard Tim Thugga’s Mixtape Vol. 1, or whateva it was, but let’s see what’s goin’ on afta this intro… Good hook goin’ on wit this beat, wit a lil’ bit of Beezy Bird on tha hook! Tha 1^st verse iz Tim Thugga, and it sounds good wit what he bringin’; gotta luv what he does!! BTW, I’m gonna need some non-DJ, non-mixed versions of these songs if y’all want ‘em on my radio show! We got Beezy Bird on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit good shit, although a lil’ ‘automatic’ wit how automatically, “hoes” can “fuck” him, easily. Time for some Kevin F on tha 3^rd verse… Wow, what a turn off in tha beginning; on Level’s dick? Not feelin’ tha beginning flow, but it turns out to be okay, but still, very ‘automatic’ soundin’… Speakin’ of which, thanks for “The Addams Family” part, F; good mention for my 42 (lol, again, I said that age) aunt! My Rating: 4.3


03. “Stuntin’” Feat. Foxx
Just Foxx on tha ID, not “Foxx A Mill”… >>> Sounds hot wit tha hook and beat; crazy Tim Thugga voice goin’ on, here!!! See, it’s about fuckin’ time somebody has some energy in their voice, after all them regularly-rapped shit I reviewed, previously!! Definitely feelin’ this one a whole lot, so far, and I’m only about a minute it!! Beezy Bird’s comin’ through on tha 1^st verse, reppin’ fa “G-Lane.” Too bad for me, “G-Lane” was a 2009 thing only; that’ll always be its peak year, and due to people not showin’ loyalty, tha year’ll prolly neva re-capture tha success of gay-ass ’09! Oh well, it’s neva my fault! Glad Beezy mentioned, “I’m tha one they samplin’;” correct! He be goin’, “bow, bow,” on tha beat’s backgrounds! Bro-Bro didn’t understand, but I gon tell him, “You need to listen to tha interview I did wit DJ B-Real, where I talked about it, or else I won’t send you your awards!” Foxx’s on tha 2^nd verse, and it sounds pretty nice; I remember those recording sessions on YouTube, which I featured in tha October 1, 2011 show I did, where I interviewed y’all! Time fa my big dawg, Tim Thugga, on tha 3^rd verse, comin’ through wit one of tha best, most-entertainin’ flows, right now; can’t resist it!! Tim Thugga wraps you up in his raps, lol; continuous, non-stop shit!! Wit 54 seconds left, what’s left? Oh, Janis Joplin, please distract me from tha ending! *Skips ending* My Rating: 4.8


04. “You Ain’t Shyt”
A solo from Tim Thugga, lol? Sounds random for this collaboration CD… >>> Sounds good; almost sounds like it follows up tha previous joint wit tha hook. Gotta give props to Tim fa doin’ his thang wit this great voice. Huh, he said, “Free my nigga Lil’ One The Champ”? Why does he like jail (for not bein’ alert to get in there), so wh—how you know him, Tim? Everyone’s on tha same level, ya feel me? No offense wit any of this; I don’t get why it’s so hard to get a hard copy of somethin’, when I was promised! But, for a quick song, you did ya thang, Tim Thugga!! You really be holdin’ your rhymes down, at all times!! My Rating: 4.4


05. “Speak The Real” Feat. Vic Boi
Anotha Tim Thugga solo, featurin’ this Vic Boi dude… >>> It sounds like an okay track, but iz great wit your voice all ova it; really reppin’ for tha streetz, once again! Glad you speakin’ “tha real” to ‘em, right here! Kinda long on tha length for this mixtape, and a solo song, but I’ll deal wit it… I guess this iz Vic Boi on tha 3^rd verse? Don’t know too much about this dude, but I have to say that he sounds like Quick; I’ll give this props… I like how Tim Thugga says, “let’s delete it;” I know how to delete, and I’m deletin’ those that didn’t thank me for my 2010 awards in three dayz, which’ll mark a year since I sent ‘em out. My Rating: 4.3


06. “Hard” Feat. Lil’ Boxx & Hannibal
Looks like a combo… >>> *Automatically mumbles words to not understand tha intro* I’m definitely likin’ this beat; good shit goin’ on here wit tha Tim Thugga hook! Beezy Bird’s reppin’ pretty nice on tha 1^st verse; gotta feel how he bringin’ that tight shit to a track dat goes “hard!” Got Lil’ Boxx on tha 2^nd verse; glad you know him and collaborated wit him! Definitely some tight-ass shit, here; Lil’ Boxx’s always consistent wit his energy and rhymin’!! Time fa tha 3^rd verse; what’ll it be…? Tim Thugga, as he comes through wit some tight rhymes ova this tight beat! Didn’t think he’d come through wit a verse, but he did; I thought there was gonna be a long outro or somethin’… Keep it goin’, Tim; keep it goin’, Tim!! Will there be a 4^th verse? Yea—oh wait, time ta lick up some… heroin vomit!!! Mmm, like Meital says, “tasty and yummy,” huh?! Yea, I’d rather lick tha vomit! Damn, got too distracted to even think; guess that’s what happens when things are incomplete? I think so! My Rating: 4.5


07. “Grind For”
Let’s see what y’all “grind for”… >>> What’s up wit tha tags in tha beginning, includin’ tha beat tag? Seems like everyone wants to have a beat tag… Good job wit tha hook; great, consistent music at its finest!! Even down to tha 1^st verse from Tim Thugga; tha consistency iz tha same, and I can’t deny any shit goin’ on, here! Gotta keep stayin’ on ya “grind!” Beezy Bird’s on tha 2^nd verse, and his voice adds tha extra spice to what could originally be a solo Tim Thugga joint! Glad to hear a whole CD from Beezy, finally!! My Rating: 4.4


08. “Gutta Bitch” Feat. ADORE
Capital letters? What’s this gon be like? >>> Not sure about tha intro; hope y’all can pull off this smooth shit! Prevent y’allselves from makin’ this sound soft… Tim Thugga’s on tha 1^st verse and it’s good wit tha voice; “they some characters, girl.” I have to say, I agree wit Tim, even though he’s his own “character,” wit how great he comes through on tha tracks, not like everyone else’s boring, stale voices… Tha hook ain’t too bad; thank God there’s no a-tune ‘cause I would’ve skipped this, if so! Got Beezy Bird on tha 2^nd verse, and I have to say, these are some entertainin’ rhymes; nice job! Can’t deny what Beezy brings to tha table! A lil’ bit of a 3^rd verse from ADORE; good for my gurl Alexia, I guess? Not too bad, overall… My Rating: 3.9


½time: I made it to tha ½ mark, so far, and y’all are at a nice, 4.4 for tha CD rating, currently!!!!


09. “Check Out My” Feat. BluBlack
Wow, did I jynx it? I said, “A walking nipple slip…,” before I saw tha ID/heard tha track, and I guess I’m right! >>> Who’s “C Real”? Sounds like a watered-down version of a 225-soundin’ beat, but it’s not bad; I’m sayin’ what I’m sayin’ ‘cause it sounds like a mainstream-soundin’ beat… Either way, I like tha hook, as it’s nice and repetitive! Got Beezy Bird on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit some shit to “check out”; gotta feel him! Thumbs up fa tha consistency!! As for tha 2^nd verse, it’s dat boy Tim Thugga!! Doesn’t exactly sound like him (since I thought it was someone else on tha hook); really feelin’ tha voice and attitude!! Nice job, Tim!! Got tha 3^rd verse up next, and—oh wait, tha hot Amy Schumer’s poppin’ up in my head? What, “tha most pissed off winners of 2011”? “A walking nipple slip waitin’ ta happen”? “Cookoo for Coco… Puffs, or whatever”? Amy Schumer to tha rescue!!! Yea, I like them quotes! Wish I could see some 40 Winningest Winners of 2011 on VH1, again; hope she’ll host tha 2012 ones, too, if they even have it! Yea, tell ‘em: “And her ass later…;” good job, girl! Oh wait, what happened? Guess I didn’t get ta review tha 3^rd verse; oh well, guess an acknowledgement’ll boost my priorities! Thank God I’m 23, turnin’ 24 now!! Gonna be possibly drivin’ to New York all by myself in three dayz! I think my family has faith in me, now, especially since they see me carin’ more about me, rather than random people that don’t respect what I do/are not loyal! I gon keep bein’ a bad-azz and keep bein’ self-absorbed!! My Rating: 4.4


10. “Showin’ Off”
Let’s see this; I know there was somethin’ about this online, I think… >>> C Real must be doin’ this beat, too, since I heard a beat tag. Damn, I hope people retire them beat tags fa 2012; gettin’ annoyin’ and they’re hella insecure. It’s like, what happened to surprises? As for this song, I like this beat slightly better, and tha hook’s pretty nice!! Good job wit Tim Thugga on tha 1^st verse; nice shout out ta “Lil’ Boxx.” Keep your “flash out” attitude, Tim; it’s all about showin’ tha fake what’s real!! For me, I rather be quiet; I can “flash out” in my own house, but not to people, to where I get arrested. Let’s see what we got for tha 2^nd verse… Beezy Bird’s comin’ through wit some anti-“fake” rhymes; you know we all can’t stand them unloyal people! It’s like, how can you be unloyal? How can you be negative?!? My Rating: 4.3


11. “Lookin’ For Me” Feat. Carterboy
Carter Boy from Da Gremlins? Y’all have tha name as a compound word (“Carterboy”), so are they different? Lemme hear… >>> Feelin’ tha production, whether it’s original or not! It works greatly for y’all, especially Tim Thugga! Good shit wit tha hook; time ta locate tha Thugga, lol! Didn’t expect this song ta be almost five minutes long, but I’ll deal wit it… Good shit, once again, from Tim, on tha 1^st verse; that voice iz undeniable when it comes ta this consistent shit!!! LOL, Tim Thugga on tha 2^nd verse, again? Can’t be; iz it dat Carter Boy dude? Whateva this iz, it sounds like they’re affiliated wit y’all… If this iz Carter, then no, this ain’t tha same one from MVP Entertainment; no wonder why his name’s a compound word. Yea, I heard him say his name toward tha end of tha verse… Some Beezy Bird on tha 3^rd verse, here, also becomin’ a target! Now, it’s a mission ta locate tha Bird, lol! Good job wit tha tight/consistent shit you bringin’ to tha table, Beezy; gotta feel it! My Rating: 4.3


12. “Go Hard” Feat. Sims & S.O.S.
ROFL, what happened to tha “Or Go Home” in tha title? Funny, especially since it’s 1.5x longer than tha video version! For me, this a classic-soundin’ song; definitely caught my attention on a 1^st listen!! Y’all a great team, between To Tha Dirt Records + New Go Get It Music = Real Street Music! Beezy does a real nice job wit tha hook; it’s almost like you’ll be dyin’ ta kick it wit him, and do some tight business/songs wit him! Gotta give props ta Tim Thugga, too, wit tha 2^nd verse; he everything “in this game!” Let’s see what this last 1:57 iz… ROFL, an unsourced, random appearance from Sims, here! Why’d you guys leave him outta tha DatPiff ID? There’s nothin’ wrong wit him; he ain’t no “walking nipple slip,” even though I neva got access to send him his 2009 awards… Sounds like S.O.S. on tha 4^th verse, but I dunno who’s on tha 2^nd ½ of tha 4^th verse? S.O.S., can you please give Obeeze his 2009 awards, already?! Sounds like someone. Unfortunately, I can’t put anyone in tha ID of tha 2^nd ½ of tha 4^th verse, due to I can’t tell their voice. But, I rather it just end wit Sims…; should I consider this a remix? My Rating: 4.5


13. “Fast Train” Feat. STREETz
Who’s this feature and why are they in caps? >>> A good start, so far… Tha 1^st verse ain’t bad; I feel like I’m likin’ this hook a lil’ betta! Really feelin’ tha whole vibe of this “fast train,” ya feel me? This Streetz dude’s on tha 2^nd verse; good job wit tha collaboration, teamin’ up wit tha Bird and tha Thugga! Time ta have a Beezy Bird “bulletproof” dinner, for tha 3^rd verse, lol! He’d “pull [his] whole dick out and piss on you?!” Damn, what an attackin’ bird!!! What do we got for this 4^th verse? Iz it Tim—no, it’s not!! My 30-year-old cousin just died last month (last serious death in tha family since December 1, 2004); I rather think about him than hear tha ending!! My Rating: 4.3


14. “Gun Speak” Feat. Yungmoney Slim & Tweezy
Let’s see what dis ‘bout… >>> Wow, pretty crazy wit Beezy Bird and his “gun” talk!! Tha 23^rd’ll mark four years since I had a 9mm to me; glad I’ve neva seen a gun since! Crazy shit from Beezy, here, but I kinda can’t say anything about Young Maniac, on tha 2^nd ½ of tha 1^st verse, ‘cause he owes me an acknowledgement. Sorry, this iz no offense; you gotta fix what you caused! Wonder who this Tweezy dude iz on tha 2^nd verse? Not bad; I can deal wit it… Ooh, tha crazy-ass Tim Thugga on tha 2^nd ½ of tha 2^nd verse!! When was tha last time y’all had, or seen a “gun”? Iz it really daily? Glad that for me, it’s been every four years, so far (since 2004 was tha previous time before ’08)! My Rating: 4.6


15. “Shit On You”
Gotta hear it! >>> Sounds good; what else can I say? Beezy Bird’s comin’ through wit tha hook, throwin’ some “shit on [y’all],” lol! Really likin’ dat hook, especially all tha shittin’!! Beezy’s also comin’ through on tha 1^st verse, wit his great character and how he holds it down for tha streetz!! Damn, I hope I get unmixed, unDJ’d versions of these songs so I can get ‘em on tha air!! Got Tim Thugga on tha 2^nd verse, and this iz pretty tight wit how he sounds wit tha beat! Givin’ a thumbs up ta tha Thugga, once again; almost sounds like his “shit” sounds like a splattin’ gun! My Rating: 4.5


16. “Swagg” Feat. Carterboy, Jigg-Three & Tweezy
Not really into tha title, but let’s see what happens wit all tha people. >>> Oh no, a beat tag hidden in tha beginning… Damn, 6:25 on tha length? Hope it holds up! Well, despite tha title, Tim Thugga sounds nice on tha hook! Must be Carterboy on tha 1^st verse? Even strapped up? Wonder what age he learned to have a gun; by tha way, I’m a virgin wit guns, since I neva touched one (and prolly neva will)! Now call that somethin’ different when people say, “not pill music!” Do we got Tim Thugga on tha 2^nd verse? Yup, comin’ through wit some tight shit, here; he don’t stop wit dis shit!! Got tha 3^rd verse from Tweezy? Shouldn’t he be above Jigg-Three? Okay wit tha verse, here; not much ta say… Okay, I’m a lil’ confused; Beezy Bird’s on tha 4^th verse, comin’ through wit a nice vibe, once again. Oh, here’s Jigg-Three (I think), on tha 2^nd ½ of tha 4^th verse, and it sounds off-beat, but tha consistency ain’t too bad… My Rating: 4.2


17. “Haters”
Just Tim Thugga? Gotta hear it! >>> Damn, endin’ it wit an old, Young Jeezy, always-used beat…? I’m likin’ tha rhymes; decent on this beat… My Rating: 3.8


Overall: Nice job wit tha mixtape! I feel honored to be a part of it, especially #1 on tha whole thang!!! Definitely a nice job collaboratin’ wit each other; gotta ride dis one ‘til tha wheels fall off!!

Review #548: Lil' Issue "Still Dumb (Young Dummy Vol. 2) (Hosted by DJ PK1)"

Reviewed on 6.20.2010 (Review #548)




Although a short day for me, I got a few current reviewz ta do. Because my 22nd birthday iz tomorrow, I’m takin’ a lil’ week break from tha marathon and just doin’ current reviewz and catchin’ up. Right here, I got my boy Lil’ Issue wit his “Still Dumb (Young Dummy Vol. 2) (Hosted by DJ PK1)” mixtape; REALLY lookin’ forward!! This iz tha 4th Lil’ Issue CD I’ve reviewed! Start Time: 9:21 PM | End Time: 10:35 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. If at least a 4.6 rating, I pretty much REALLY LOVE it as it’s considered “mindblowin’” when I hear it) so 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.

Source (Where I Got Tha CD From): http://www.datpiff.com/Dj_Pk1_Lil_Issue_Still_Dumb.m125616.html


01. Intro
Time ta start dis thang off!! REALLY lookin’ forward ta EVERYTHING!!! >>> “In D. Jackson’s studio this time?” Good shit! VERY upliftin’ intro here wit tha beat, lol!! My Rating: N/A


02. “Believe It Or Not”
I gon DEFINITELY be interested in hearin’ what dis iz!! >>> Sounds like Q-Red “breathin’” sound effects in tha beginning; HOT shit!! Tha beat’s hot and tha hook sounds good wit you “givin’ your everythang” on tha track! You sound like you grew wit tha voice from tha previous CDs… Pretty good soundin’ and how you’re improvin’/comin’ up in tha 1st verse! Good shit fa err-body in tha BR streetz! Tha 2nd verse sounds like it has a good mainstream Rap feel to it… I like how tha ending sounds wit your gr8, motivated attitude! My Rating: 4.4


03. “Flexx” Feat. Q-Red
Not too crazy about this title so let’s see what happens… >>> Tha beat start must be Q-Red again; FEELIN’ tha HOTNESS!!! It sounds like fartin’ a lil’ bit, lol! Ooh, Q-Red’s on tha hook too!! Good job wit tha follow-up to “Whop”; much betta than what I expected!! Tha 1st verse sounds like tha Issue I luved when I 1st heard you!! Dat shit from 1:17 – 1:19’s REAL HOT in tha beat!!! WHOA!!!!! So far, this sounds like it’ll DEFINITELY make my Vol. 3 mixtape due out September 22!! If there’s a betta single for me on this CD, then it’ll be somethin’ else but there’s a good chance it’ll be dis! Good job wit tha 2nd verse too; str8 KILLIN’ tha track!!! Interestin’ echoin’ in tha end! My Rating: 4.9


04. “Let Me Roll”
Now, I’m feelin’ this title so let’s see what we got! >>> LOL, afta tha cold ending wit tha echoin’, it sounded like it was backed up a few seconds in tha beginning, lol. Tha beginning here sounds good; thumbs up ta D. Jackson on tha beat!! This DEFINITELY good; REAL GOOD!!! I REALLY like tha hook here and you’re REALLY holdin’ it down to tha fullest on this track!!! Tha long hook sounds good; dat voice of yours iz YOURS and it goes a long way!!! Tha 1st verse iz finally here afta a minute and it’s dat cool, good shit to tha fullest!! Gotta give respect ta you since you’re a month and five dayz older than me, lol. Tha 2nd verse sounds like some trouble’s goin’ on wit you. What’s up wit all tha court dates you be havin’? Ya gotta be ***ALERT***!! Good looks on tha contact info at tha end! My Rating: 4.7


05. “Circles”
You should’ve listed tha features on DatPiff. Anyway, let’s see here… >>> Scary intro but I’ma try and absorb it. “Can roll ta dis,” huh? We’ll see… Prolly could’ve put this in tha middle of tha mixtape since it has been pretty jammin’… I like tha “silly rabbit” shit in tha beginning; you sound good on this 1st verse. LOL @ tha hook wit tha odd-soundin’ (on 1st listen) singer wit tha “a chicken wit my head cut off” shit; interestin’… Tha 2nd verse must “taste good ta” tha ladies wit this “recipe;” good shit. At least this joint’s only 2:49 and nothin’ like five minutes! That I’ll give credit for! My Rating: 3.9


06. “Self Made” Feat. Lil’ Alex
LOL, a feature listed this time? Looks REALLY anticipatin’ fa tha ’10!! >>> LOL, transitioned real quick here! Tha intro sounds cool and tha beat’s pretty gutta! Speakin’ of gutta, here you are on tha 1st verse wit some gutta-ass shit, lol! You REALLY holdin’ it down fa tha gangstaz here!! Tha hook sounds pretty good; hot shit!! A to tha L to tha E to tha X iz on tha 2nd verse here and he “eatin’ tracks,” lol! “Dumb, duffy and all dat” sounded like my boy Quikkdraw from his collaboration on “Extravagant”. Really rough towards tha end; y’all REALLY gr8 on a collab!! Hearin’ tha hook for tha 2nd time and it sounds GR8 wit dat “smoke weed” part; good-ass shit from you, Issue!! Tha 3rd verse sounds good wit you on it, Issue!! Very consistent here; you just DOIN’ it BIG here!!! Ooh, all along it was E.P. on tha track; good job hirin’ him, Issue! LOL @ tha silence at tha end! My Rating: 4.6


07. “Dinner Plate” Feat. Kevin F
Good thing you listed tha feature; let’s hear how GR8 dis iz!! >>> Again, it sounds backed up from tha last joint since tha last joint had a cold ending and had silence without mixin’. Anyway, cool beat soundin’ here and tha hook’s pretty tight; gotta luv dat title!! Tha 1st verse sounds like you really focused wit who you fuck wit; good shit when I hear it from you! Shit yea, Lil’ Kevin a.k.a. Kevin F’s on tha 2nd verse and he sounds GR8; glad you ALWAYS wit your rappin’ family on your songs!! From Blak On Blak to Yes! I Am to Major Issue, y’all do it up!! Tha beat sounds like Mouse or Q-Red here but if it really was Q-Red, I would be able ta ID it easily… Tha 3rd verse iz you and you’ll “meet ‘em at their resident;” good shit! Tha rhymes sound good and catchy too once again… I knew it was gonna be “D. Jackson on tha track!” My Rating: 4.6


08. PK1 Radio
Shit, yea, lemme hear my boy! >>> Good shout outs; some of them don’t fit wit dis CD, lol? My Rating: N/A


09. “Neighborhood Gospel”
Not sure of what this title ‘pose ta tell me? >>> You sound anticipatin’ here in tha beginning since it sounds like you fulla dat shit! This iz catchy so far…; good hook. Tha 1st verse sounds good; I like tha laidback flow. Your “neighborhood” must luv dis and what you be doin’! Tha 2nd verse’s keepin’ it real too… My Rating: 4.0


10. “My Swagg” Feat. Bun B
LOL, will I like it betta? Lemme rehear… >>> X-Fyle on tha track and again, tha Pop start in tha beat. Tha hook’s kinda on tha typical tip as what I would hear from everyone. Should’ve had a Q-Red production or somethin’ ta make it catchier! Tha 1st verse’s kinda typical too… Again, Bun B sounds good on tha 2nd verse; he actually sounds betta… Tha 3rd verse iz a touch betta than your 1st verse; I’ll keep my rating tha same. My Current Rating: 3.5


11. PK1 Radio
I’m wonderin’, what’s up wit dis yucky “Mr. Jones” beat comin’ outta nowhere? >>> Good thing it’s just a talk break… Okay, 45 seconds went by, anything goin’ on? I hope PK1 gives his numba so I can hit him up… I didn’t hear it now but maybe later? I’ll e-mail him… My Rating: N/A


½time: Sounds pretty HOT so far; you REALLY keepin’ it HOT like you’ve done in tha past! Tha average CD rating’s at 4.3 right now and tha production’s off tha chain!!! Keep tha catchiness up!!


12. “Headlights”
I think I heard this before… >>> This sounds familiar but I don’t see anything anywhere? I like dat hook wit tha “ol’ lady!” Sounds like some “feelin’s” in tha 1st verse comin’ out chu; good shit! Interestin’ shit about these “bitches” in tha 2nd verse. I’ve neva dealt wit some of dis shit so it’s good dat you rappin’ ‘bout it! My Rating: 4.2


13. “Rubber Band Pop” Feat. Kevin F
These titles are givin’ me déjà vu or somethin’… >>> Mod Productions on tha beat, huh? Actually, I praised him one day on tha phone for doin’ beats for you and he said, “I don’t even know him [you, Issue].” He said, “Some of my beats must float around or somethin’;” lol… So, this iz a “floated” beat dat’s pretty good fa dis. Tha hook sounds good; you REALLY holdin’ it down on all these hooks!! Tha 1st verse sounds good; motivated Issue to tha fullest! Tha 2nd verse sounds good; Lil’ Kevin F doin’ his thang fa your section! Tha 3rd verse from you sounds good as you continue ta do tha damn thang!! My Rating: 4.3


14. “Pimp II” Feat. Big Steve
A 2nd part, lol? >>> D. Jackson on this beat and it sounds interestin’; did dis beat float around too, lol? Tha hook’s pretty catchy; hearin’ all dat “I got a lotta hoes” from Big Steve’s catchy! I guess it iz real since you gave a shout out ta “D. Jackson” in tha beginning! Tha hook sounds betta; tha beat’s kickin’ good! Tha 1st verse iz you and you’re really anti-cops, lol! Guess what, Issue? … … I neva had detention, lol! I like how tha end of tha 1st verse sounds wit tha beat; dis iz tight right chea! Tha 2nd verse iz Big Steve and let’s see what he’s got… All these “hoes” but he didn’t send me tha song he was sendin’ me? Gotta keep it money ova bitches; it ain’t a secret! Therefore, I kinda might forget to comment on tha rest of it? It’s aight, it’s just a typical-soundin’ verse dat fits good on dis track. You luv tha 3rd verses and you sound good wit dis shit. Sounds like future-tense to me as it sounds like you’re at your “fuckin’-extreme” stage all of a sudden. It’ll be a while (I think) ‘til I see this day… My Rating: 4.4


15. “Hate On How I Cum” Feat. Big Eye
“Cum?” Must be anotha ladies song, lol? Or, you just bein’ creative wit tha spellin’? >>> Anotha D. Jackson joint! Tha start sounded like “Head 2 My Toes” which kinda threw my anticipation weird but yea, I guess this iz a “cummin’” anthem rather than a “coming over” anthem, lol! Tha hook sounds good wit this beat and tha 1st verse from you’s good; you holdin’ down tha tracks! Oh, you’re on tha 2nd verse now, lol? Feelin’ tha “LRG and Girbauds!” Glad you get ta see “Girbauds” all tha time! I only see people wit ‘em like a few times a year; you know how white it iz up where I’m at. Huh? Where’s Big Eye? I didn’t catch him anywhere… Are y’all voices tha same? You’re soundin’ consistent on tha 3rd verse… Oh, here he iz on tha 2nd ½ of tha 3rd verse; just a background appearance wit a ½ line, lol? My Rating: 4.3


16. “Jam” Feat. John The Baptist
Now, I’m thinkin’ this iz “jam” (jelly) for tha ladies vs. a “jam” (song); let’s see if I’m right. >>> Ooh, Q-Red on this beat; glad we’re back ta dis!! Okay, I knew I had ta be wrong; this iz “jammin’” accordin’ ta tha hook! Good job from JTB on tha hook and he’s on tha 1st verse here! Feelin’ his “cookin’” shit and him holdin’ tha verse down!! Tha hoods must REALLY luv him!! He a “loratabber,” lol!! You’re on tha 2nd verse and you’re havin’ fun “in dis bitch” accordin’ ta how you soundin’! Oh, you’re even a huge poppa, lol? “Poppin’ tab afta tab?” Issuerific, lol! My Rating: 4.4


17. “Ready”
Now, it’s just you… >>> LOL, a form of havin’ sex in tha beginning? Sounds like an R&B song fa a Q-Red beat? Good soundin’ and tha hook’s aight but if you’re here, Issue, you couldn’t just hop on it? You’re a “shy guy,” huh? You do all this “fuckin’” and you’re shy? You’re not a virgin… Tha 2nd verse sounds like you “givin’ a gurl your numba.” Interestin’… What age did you discover dat you made friends? I’m still on a mission and finally, I think it’s workin’ wit y’all in Louisiana! Tha 3rd verse has you “invitin’ her ova” too? You really are good at socializin’ and not “shy,” lol. March 3, 2010 marked tha 1st day I got someone ta come to my house (even though they didn’t come in). My Rating: 3.7


18. “Whop (Remix)” Feat. Q-Red
LOL, I didn’t know what ta expect when I heard tha first few seconds… You’re VERY late wit gettin’ dis ta me (final mix). Tha otha version made my radio show, my decade-end countdown and everything, lol! You ID’d it wrong as it’s tha “remix” here. Still sounds VERY HOT on tha beat and tha hook!! You sound dry on tha 1st verse compared to tha original version? Up tha flow like you did original; sounds like you’re just bored (e.g., “HELLO!!” turned into “hello…”)… Tha 2nd verse iz an updated Q-Red verse. Again, it sounds too boring. I almost feel like dis iz an original version and tha otha version iz a remix instead. All dat “throwin’ money” betta not be dat serious now, right, Q-Red? Save tha money for an interview fa me dat I’m ‘pose ta do fa you, Q-Red! Again, this could’ve sounded betta… My Rating: 4.5


19. “Smack-Down” Feat. John The Baptist, Lil’ DJ The RB & Beezy Bird
I guess when it was uploaded to DatPiff, this and #20 are flipped on tha tracklisting but are correct on tha track numbers… Anyway, let’s hear what dis iz like. >>> Oh, betta put “Feat. Beezy Bird” on tha ID too ‘cause there’s a particular “bow, bow” in tha beat! It has ta be DJ B-Real on tha beat if dat’s tha case ‘cause he’s tha one dat started samplin’ his voice… Anyway, catchy hook and tha 1st verse sounds good wit you on tha 1st verse! A strong-statued Issue, lol! You just REALLY stayin’ strong on tha rhymes and consistency!! Dat hook’s just RAW!! Good thing fa tha features!! Speakin’ of which, here’s tha 2nd verse and it sounds like some sex’s goin’ on wit tha mixin’ of hard rhymes? Good verse; gotta LUV hearin’ newbies and features, ESPECIALLY for tha 1st or 2nd time!! Tha 3rd verse iz more gutta here; I like tha “discount” shit! My Rating: 4.6


20. PK1 Radio 3
Lemme hear it!! >>> Sounded like a part of tha title from tha last joint was cut off a lil’ bit… DEFINITELY “his pleasure” ta mix dis; thanx fa tha thedjpk1@gmail.com e-mail! I’m likin’ how he sounds on dis, soundin’ good DJin’ and mixin’! My Rating: N/A


21. “Don’t Wanna Die Broke”
A bonus (1 of 2); let’s hear it! I like tha title! >>> Sounds like a single dat sounds good; very mainstream soundin’ dat’s good here! LOL @ tha catchy rhymes in tha 1st verse, doin’ ya thang! Tha 1st verse’s continuin’ ta do tha damn thang wit your “money levels” and consistent life. Tha 2nd verse’s good too; I prolly would say tha same for tha 2nd verse as I did for tha 1st. Tha 3rd verse’s consistent too. Once again, you’re focused. My Rating: 4.1


22. “Put Yo Blinker On”
LOL, you LUV drivin’, huh? Let’s see wit newbie Deezle on tha beat for this 2nd bonus song!! >>> Tha beat start sounds like it could be anticipatin’. Thumbs up fa bein’ interested in all my talents, Issue! I KNOW you luved dat status comment yesterday, lol! Anyway, tha 1st verse sounds good wit tha rappin’ for “tha club;” lookin’ forward to tha hook for some reason!! “Changin’ lanes in tha club?” It’s a driveway in there? I neva really been to a club in tha longest time (January 2004; last visited November 2008) (or neva been to an “Urban” club) so I wouldn’t know how ta picture it. But, it’s a catchy hook… Tha 2nd verse’s pretty good too; good job wit dis shit, Issue! I think it could be a lil’ catchier so let’s see what tha 3rd verse sounds like… Sounds like dat otha song wit tha “girl in tha hallway.” Not bad of a verse… I guess it fits wit tha otha ones. My Rating: 4.3


Overall: Anotha VERY GOOD, consistent mixtape from you, ya dig!! Just DOIN’ THA DAMN THANG on buku tracks, yet, you presented 22 jointz (18 were songs) ta me outta nowhere!! Keep up tha GR8 work!! You’re a VERY consistent rapper!!!

Review #294: Issue, Big Steve & Lil' Kevin "Entertainment I Am Vol. 1 (The Promo)"

Reviewed on 8.19.2009 (Review #294)

Good mornin' (lol). FrankieThaLuckyDog in tha buildin' as it's just about ta hit tha 11:00 AM hour. Tha review I got up next iz STILL wit Lil' Issue on it, but iz a combination mixtape between him, Big Steve & Lil' Kevin! I betcha tha Kevin dude iz that boy Kevin F that be BLAZIN' tha features when it comes to Lil' Issue's mixtapes! Although thanx to tha Camp Life representative for sendin' it to me in tha mail (just tha CD), this time, there's no tracklisting printed on tha CD (or online), so I gon have ta do a blind review. My bad for not knowin' who gon be on it as well as titles and shit. But, here goes my review for Issue, Big Steve & Lil' Kevin "Entertainment I Am Vol. 1 (The Promo)"! Nice title, and I like how I review a mixtape of just Lil' Issue, then before it, a mixtape wit him and Lil' Alex. Now, a mixtape of him and 2 folks; lol @ tha growth consistently! Either way, I don't know tha age difference between tha 3; they all 2009 though. Also, Lil' Issue's MySpace link iz incorrect on tha CD: It's really http://www.myspace.com/lilissue , but it says http://www.myspace.com/lilissuesge instead. Start Time: 11:09 AM End Time: 1:09 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 or have auto-tune in your vocals, I’m not buyin’ it!

 

 

© 2009 CD Review (Review #294) reviewed on 8.19.2009 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.


01. Intro
Although I don't have a tracklisting, I'm assumin' for 40 seconds that this iz an intro. If certain songs come up to where I've heard them, I'll fill in title/featured artists. For now, let's see how this mixtape does! >>> This "a promo?" Wit tha 20 songs on here, I wasn't thinkin' officially that. I was just 'bout ta ask dat before I started ('cause it says "The Promo - Mixtape Comin' Soon!" on tha CD). I'll put that in tha title of this CD then. This intro sounded nice (wit a nice beat), although there shouldn't have been a cold ending (for a mixtape); should just either cut off or end flat at :00 remainin'. My Rating: N/A


02.
Tha 1st song startin' thangz off... Just like tha previous Lil' Issue CDs, let's start tha 3rd one off wit a BANGA! 3x a charm here!! >>> Yea, Issue in tha beginning, and throwin' in that dumb shit for tha beginning! It's all about "Yes! I Am Entertainment" on this shit, so shout out ta you givin' yourself props here. Feelin' tha rhymes here; definitely a nice 1st verse wit that attitude, Issue! Tha 2nd verse here from dat boy Big Steve "showin' his ass off everytime;" nice job on tha 1st 1/4 of tha 2nd verse!! Wow, dat boy Lil' Kevin (yup, Kevin F) on tha 2nd 1/4, doin' a REAL, REAL nice job!!! Big Steve on tha 3rd 1/4, STILL doin' a nice job!!! Kevin got back on tha 4th 1/4, soundin' EVEN BETTA how he "so impolite how he SHIT ON THA MIC;" REAL TIGHT!!! Anotha banga ta start tha mixtape off; 3x a charm right here!!! My Rating: 4.5


03.
It has 5:12 on tha length... I have an idea of what it iz (if it iz what I think it iz); let's see... >>> Nope, it ain't X-Fyle on tha track/that song wit Bun B, so this could be a REAL nice plus!! Actually, sounds like a HUGE heart-grabber on tha hook here wit tha "I'm goin' polo, goin' polo" in tha beginning!!! YEA!! THA HOOK IZ STR8 POLO'D UP!!!!! "Rockin' polo like a big dawg;" that's watz good!! That 1st verse REAL NICE, doin' tha thang wit tha "polo & fulla drugs" part!!! LOL @ tha "horses everywhere;" I get dat line 'cause polos have tha horses on 'em! Glad he buyin' "for his dawgs" also; that's REALLY watz good!! Such a BIG anthem that should sound perfect if tha last 2 verses do tha DAMN thang!!! Yea, tha 2nd verse here, soundin' REAL, REAL nice wit tha "sag my pants" and tha "boxers polo" part too; nothin' COMES CLOSE here!!!!! Even "can hear his ears pop;" that's how EXTREME this song iz!!! REAL nice job on tha 2nd verse, still goin' for that perfect rating!! Yea, here's dat boy Issue on tha 3rd verse here, smokin' buku shit here wit tha polo ta match!! I swear, it's ALWAYS about dat boy Issue on tha final verse of each song 'cause it sounds REAL, REAL good!!! EXTREMELY swagged out here!!! Tha hook repeated an extra time luckily, and although I thought tha beat stopped at 5:00 flat, it continued!! Gotta have it 100 here!! This tha 1st perfect rated song I EVA rated WITHOUT knowin' title/featured artist(s)!!! My Rating: 5.0


04.
How can we follow up from that HUGE-ASS song?!? >>> Sounds like it back to that dumb shit like Song #2. Yea, this ANOTHA REAL NICE joint!!! Glad Issue "ackin' a asshole" on this shit!! WHAT A REAL NICE HOOK!!! Str8 Baton Rouge shit right here!!! Tha "ack a asshole" part repeated an extra time for tha hook, so you KNOW this iz official!! Tha 1st verse here from Issue, and it's CRAZY!!! REALLY "fulla dat shit" and "fulla dat green," so it's a DEFINITELY 225 anthem here!!!!! Even got sexual here for tha ladies wit tha "gimme head and lick all ova my balls" part; just STR8 perfection here from dat boy Issue!!! Tha 2nd verse here, and it's NICE and upbeat; GREAT-ASS flow!!!!! "Infactuated wit money, boy, I'm a moneyologist;" mega plus to you, boy! Wit "money out tha ass," y'all should EASILY be able ta buy a promotional commercial from me for either $50 or $75 ($75 recommended 'cause it a minute long)! I believe Issue again here on tha 3rd verse, doin' nothin' but that GREAT SHIT here!!! Nice job right there, and it's a 1/2 verse 'cause tha 2nd 1/2 of tha 3rd verse was takin' ova from one of your team members; REAL GREAT attitude on this shit!!! I believe this anotha perfect song; 2 in a row!!! My Rating: 5.0


05.
Still comin' through REAL, REAL STRONG!!!!! Up next iz... >>> A lil' slower than tha last song, but still comin' through NICE! Tha hook iz DEFINITELY on that hood shit, and tha 1st verse here from a female, doin' a NICE job here!! That hook just FULLA money as Issue "throws it to tha sky;" GREAT shit again!!! Sounds like Issue gon be on tha 2nd verse... YES, HE IZ!! "Stack doe, sorta like dem legos," so that's a plus! Definitely feelin' ya verse right there; keep this shit comin'!! I really liked how tha dude on tha 3rd verse said "looook" at 2:50, seconds away from tha verse; I fuckin' luv black people to tha fullest, ya dig!! Real nice soundin' here wit tha attitude & flowin' of tha rhymes!! I also like tha ending, as tha beat ended on tha last second wit "we one step from famous, ha!" My Rating: 4.6


06. "Catch Me (Remix)"
Next up, I wonder how good we got it this time? >>> Might be familiar, but if it ain't, this a REAL GREAT start!!! Yup, this a familiar start from tha "We Got Issues!" CD (that best song on there), so this a MAJOR plus for consistency!! For those that missed what it was like: Sounds like anotha great beat intro; you got REAL nice production behind you!! Yea, what a REAL NICE hook here!! "You can catch me on Friday, smokin' on tha highwayyyy!!!" Talk about a REAL nice hook!! Tha 1st verse startin' off NICE wit tha smokin' shit! You doin' ya thang wit this shit right here to tha fullest!! It felt like it took awhile, but tha 2nd verse iz here, and it still soundin' pretty good; you're nice & wasted! I like tha "rollin' up sum tropical" also; great smokin' shit that neva ends!! Yea, fuck tha sirens!! As long as you "gettin' loaded on tha highway," you got nothin' ta worry about. AS LONG AS YOU STAY ALERT 'cause most people that go to jail aren't 100% alert! To Add: I believe there's added shit on tha 1st 1/2 of tha 2nd verse here, so that's a plus!! Dude sounds NICE on this shit, so I'm glad for tha addition! Tha 2nd 1/2 of tha 2nd verse iz REAL NICE wit tha "mixin' adjectives wit verbs," as well as tha endin'; such a NICE song right here! Due to tha additional shit, I'll boost tha rating up, and I'll also put "(Remix)" in tha ID 'til I officially know what's what. My Current Rating: 4.7


07.
Tha lengths are always these nice 3:00 - 3:59 type lengths, so I'm sure tha same kinda formula gon come outta 'em!! >>> Sounds like an OFFICIAL Baton Rouge beat intro! Actually, it said "Q-Red on tha track," so you KNOW it's DEFINITELY official here!! A WHOLE LOTTA "lane switchin'" in tha hook, so this a DEFINITE PLUS TO THA MAX!! Yea, tha hook was 3x instead of tha typical 2x!! I like tha "get ran tha fuck ova" part! Here's tha 1st verse from Issue (as well as doin' tha hook too), doin' a REAL NICE job here!! Really feelin' tha loaded lyrics here, as well as tha attitude of bein' loaded & feelin' good! Tha 2nd hook was only tha typical 2x, but it's all good 'cause tha 2nd verse iz DEFINITELY on that HOT-ASS shit wit tha "lemme roll my bleezy;" this REAL, REAL nice!!! You DEFINITELY did ya thang on tha 2nd verse, Issue. A song only wit Issue, so you KNOW this got a nice favorable feelin' from me, ya dig!! Oh wait, it ain't ova yet: Wit only 21 seconds left, tha 3rd verse here, and I'm glad you gave a shout out ta Lil' "Alex" on tha 3rd verse, as well as rappin' when tha beat got quieter towards tha end. I don't like how it said "lane switchin'" only 3x at tha end instead of in a multiple of 2. My Rating: 4.9


08.
Tha length jumped up a WHOPPIN' 59 seconds to 4:48!! REALLY lookin' forward ta this one too!!! >>> Couldn't hear who iz on tha track ('cause it was a lil' kid), but tha female that startin' off this joint DEFINITELY soundin' nice!!! There's just UNSTOPPABLE consistency here!!! REAL GREAT beat, and I like her "you trippin'" shit in tha hook! She on tha 1st verse here, doin' a REAL nice job!! Great job on that 1st verse, and tha 2nd verse here... NEVA CALM ON THIS MIXTAPE!!! "So slip-resistant," so this DEFINITELY some shit that DON'T FAIL!!! REAL GREAT voice/flow/rhymes, and all tha shit here; it FIYA!!!!! Tha 3rd verse here, and it still soundin' NICE! "Even check a nigga out like a bag a' groceries;" TIGHT line!! Also like tha endin' wit "I gotta be in wata, bitch, you neva see me slippin'!" That beat outro (tha last unda 20 seconds) was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tell that producer ta holla at me so I can keep showin' him BUKU luv, ya dig!! One of tha BEST beat outros I heard eva!!!!!!!!!!!!! My Rating: 4.7


09.
Still not even up to tha half point, and thingz are just REAL, REAL GOOD!!!!! This next song should keep up that consistency!!!!! >>> I think I might know this song... Actually, because it has a Young Jeezy "Over Here" sample wit tha "money", it confused me 'cause y'all got a lotta "money" songs. Either way, nice hook, but it all about dat 1st verse!!! Tha attitude and strength of it sounds REAL, REAL NICE!!! "All about ya money like it a part of your religion," so you KNOW that's REALLY watz good!! That's Lil' Kevin right there on tha 1st verse spittin' that STREET SHIT tha HOOD WAY, ya dig!!! Tha 2nd verse here, and it Big Steve, still keepin' this shit runnin' like a runny nose, lol! Tha flow iz just REAL, REAL GOOD!!! Great rhymes on tha 1st 1/2 of tha 2nd verse, and tha 2nd 1/2 iz my dawg Issue, doin' a REAL GOOD job also!! Fuckin' luv his voice, and he "smokin' a lotta purple," so this DEFINITELY tha shit right here, ya dig!! Tha fade-out on tha outro on this song anticipates me for tha next song! LOL, I feel like I have a GREAT feelin' for this like an English teacher who luvs their stories, ya dig! My Rating: 4.6


10.
Tha consistent length times = tha consistency of tha songs!!! >>> I'm ALWAYS correct on tha consistentness 'cause this a Q-Red production here; SO GLAD nearly every song iz a new one for me on this CD!!! Hope tha ACTUAL mixtapes that comes out ('cause this tha promo) has all this consistency on it!!! Real great beginning to tha intro & hook, but tha "whop, whop, whop, whop, whop, whop, WHOP!" shit in tha hook iz REAL, REAL, REAL catchy!!!!! Tha beat iz DEFINITELY on its shit here, so this a MEGA plus!!! I believe my boy Issue here on tha 1st verse, just REALLY in luv wit this shit, as well as "dat ass shake;" GREAT anthem right here! I like tha clappin' in tha beat at 1:21; reminds me of Yung Yola's "Keep Chewin'", which that clap pattern in tha beat I FUCKIN' LUV, so you KNOW this iz DEFINITELY watz good!!! Sounds like Q-Red iz rappin' on tha 2nd verse (although there was no "whop, whop..." shit in tha 2nd hook). This iz tha 2nd time I heard Q-Red rappin' (tha 1st was K.O. Feat. Beezy Bird & Q-Red "I Want That (Let Me Get It)" from Yung Yola & D.$.G.'s "99 Wayz 2 Grind" CD). He did his thang, keepin' this consistent, although Issue was betta on this! Yea, tha endin' had NOTHIN' but tha "whop, whop..." shit; REAL TIGHT!!!!! My Rating: 4.9


½time: Well, for no tracklisting, it's off to one of tha BEST STARTS EVA!!!!!!!!!! I wish I knew tha infos to tha tracks, but HOPEFULLY, someone will hook me up wit it! Issue, if you readin' this/luvin' this, you KNOW you have ta hook ya boy up wit a tracklisting 'cause it'll look betta when I have it online, ya heard me! Tha lowest rated song iz only a WHOPPIN' 4.5 (which was actually a good 4.5), and there's 2 perfect rated songs wit 2 4.9's, so this iz DEFINITELY watz good!! DYIN' ta see what tha average CD rating iz... *calculates* I believe we just set a record for tha ½time!!! Young Ready's "That's How I'm Coming" was originally a 4.8 on tha ½time, which y'alls iz too. However, wit deeper statistics, his was (without bein' rounded) 4.7625. Y'alls iz 4.7666... Y'ALL SET IT BY ONLY 0.1 OF A RATING!!!!! I figured that out 'cause if your current ratings total was to be subtracted by 0.1, tha average would be 4.75. THAT'S REALLY WATZ GOOD!!! Average CD rating: 4.8!!!!!!!!!!


11.
What should I say...? >>> Sounds like a messed up "Laffy Taffy" beat in tha beginning? Thought it was familiar, but it can't be 'cause this intro iz REAL catchy!! Issue, you doin' ya thang on tha intro and hook here; this must be called "Pimp Shit". This iz DEFINITELY catchy here, and tha 1st verse here... Great job on that 1st verse, bein' nuttin' but in luv durin' high school, so that's watz good, although I don't undastand payin' for sex ($30?). Issue, you're on tha 2nd verse here, doin' a GREAT job wit your attitude! Great job from tha 2nd verse; you ALWAYS do ya thang, Issue! GREAT ending too as tha otha dude on this went "I don't luv dem bitches" (when tha beat ended)! My Rating: 4.5


12.
A much longer length this time (5:01). Let's see what we got for 12 songs deep!! >>> A slower beat intro, but it has a NICE catchiness in it! Anotha song on tha sex level, but this sounds nice! Really feelin' tha slowness in tha hook, and now, tha 1st verse iz here! Continuous sexual lyrics here, and it nice and sexual! Great job on that 1st verse, and now, tha 2nd verse here... It ain't stoppin'!! Definitely into tha sexual content here! Nice job right there; hope tha 3rd verse just as good! SMH @ tha adlib in tha 3rd verse: "Scott Storch;" lol? Still keepin' it G wit tha sexualness on this verse here. DEFINITELY a real nice sex song!! Anotha REAL NICE endin' too wit tha "bangin', just bangin'" part! My Rating: 4.4


13.
Shorter song this time (2:50); let's see what we got... >>> Sounded pretty anticipatin' wit tha first few seconds wit tha beat. Catchy hook here wit that voice! Ya "betta get ya change up" ya sayin', and now, it Issue on tha 1st verse. This iz good for you 'cause this your "theme music." Great job on that verse, Issue; you ALWAYS doin' ya thang!! Tha 2nd verse here, and it still from you, Issue. Nice job keepin' yourself satistfied. LOL @ tha "purple like Monopoly" line. Tha beat almost has an older feel to it; thumbs up on this shit! My Rating: 4.3


14.
And back to tha longer songs, lol. Tha length iz now 4:54; let's see what y'all got now! >>> Anotha REAL anticipatin' intro again (just like tha last song). Howeva, this one sounds betta! Glad it longer too so I can decide. LOL, tha hook came 4 seconds early at :20? Sounded like I was payin' attention to tha beat, and then, tha hook just came in! I really liked tha "prolly fulla pills" part too! I think this tha hook in tha beginning; it sounds REAL nice! Yea, here's tha 1st verse (right before 1:00)! "Watch me explode like a grenade when I release tha pen;" EXPLODIN' shit here!!! Really feelin' tha voice/flow here on tha 1st verse, doin' tha damn thang to tha fullest! Issue such a BEAST on dat hook how he expresses it in tha 1st 1/2 of it!! Tha 2nd verse here, and it's soundin' GREAT wit tha flow (as always)! Great "my niggaz, they spark a lot; they 'bout sprayin' somethin'" part! This shit iz DEFINITELY for tha undaground heads here!! Yea, tha 3rd verse COULDN'T HAVE BEEN ANYBODY ELSE BUT... Issue, lol!! "Actin' a donkey" on this shit, doin' tha damn thang!! GREAT job on tha 3rd verse; instant classic PROMO CD here!!! My Rating: 4.6


15.
LOL, it a roller coaster wit these lengths 'cause now, it all tha way down ta 2:43. You got only 163 seconds here, so do tha damn thang!!! >>> A jacked beat this time? How come tha "Start From Scratch" beat? Looks like tha 1st downfall on this mixtape (beat wise). Pretty good rappin' on tha 1st verse, but please, both those otha CDs were fulla original tracks; why a jacked beat now? Pretty good rappin' on tha 2nd verse also. Still, no 4.0 rating this time. Glad it was short, and there wasn't even any Issue on it either. My Rating: 3.7


16. "Money"
No more abnormal shit, please! >>> Whether this beat iz original or not, pretty good start. This I've heard before wit tha "run it like an athlete" part. But yea, you picked a GREAT song, ESPECIALLY for tha #16 slot on this CD! Early in tha CD, where I was sayin' there was a lotta songs about money, this iz tha main anthem. Kevin says "I'm 'bout my money, dawg" in tha hook. When I hear rappers say "dawg," you KNOW I luv it; TIGHT hook! He even on tha 1st verse here, deliverin' that street shit! I like how he said "dawg" at 1:25 also! "Str8 out tha projects," so you KNOW he on his shit! DEFINITELY a nice 1st verse!! Feelin' tha 2nd verse from Issue a WHOLE lot; "on your job all tha time servin' fiends & dummies!" You KNOW I feel you when you loaded on that good shit! Only 2 verses? I kinda am a lil' hungry for more... My Current Rating: 4.6


17.
3:01 on tha length this time. Based off that length, it could be familiar... Let's see what this song brings... >>> ??? BAD START??? WTF wit tha gay female vocal sample/boring beat/song vibe/fade-in intro? Nice job on tha rappin' in tha 1st verse though; great rhymes. Aight 2nd verse here, although I feel tha "choose right" part when it comes to tha friends. You KNOW I had problems wit that my whole life 'til Louisiana saved my life Late 2007! Even Issue on this, wit only 34 seconds left? Let's see what he got... WTF @ tha hospital sound effect at 2:45? Too short of a verse... My Rating: 3.3


18.
*Sigh* I thought this was gon EASILY be a 5* automatic rated CD (when all tha songs are 4.0 or higher rated songs). Too bad for tha 2 fuck ups, but at least I got a WHOLE LOTTA EXCITEMENT outta most of this CD!!! >>> Even y'all sighin' in tha beginning, huh? Anotha beat not really for me, although at least this song sounds betta wit tha smokin' in tha beginning. Glad y'all "fulla dat shit," so that's a plus. Good job on tha 1st verse. Tha hook from Issue iz DEFINITELY nice, and I'm glad that female iz back again! This time, she on tha 2nd verse, doin' a nice job too! Glad she wants y'all ta "roll up tha swisha." Issue ALWAYS keeps this shit hood, ESPECIALLY how he delivers tha hook! Even on tha 3rd verse this time, so that's DEFINITELY watz good!! Keepin' this shit hot at all times; thumbs up! My Rating: 4.2


19.
Only 2 songs left of this CD... >>> LOL @ tha intro!! It just went nuts!! Issue's "out his body" on this shit, doin' tha damn thang on that hook!!! He on tha 1st verse here, doin' tha damn thang at ALL TIMES! Gotta luv how he said "shiiid" at :55; doin' tha damn thang here! Yea, tha 2nd verse soundin' REAL NICE here!!! Just gotta luv these attitudes and flows!!! That "bitch, I been thuggin'" part at 1:48 was REAL, REAL nice!!! LOL @ tha "hit you wit that heat like wet laundry" part; great shit! Tha 3rd verse here soundin' REAL NICE too!! Really luvin' all these voices & attitudes wit tha way these tracks flow!! REAL nice song right here, doin' tha damn thang!! My Rating: 4.6


20. Outro
Ewe... Only endin' wit 1:07 on tha length? Must be an outro... I BETTA hear y'all talk! >>> Yup, an outro. Tha dude on tha outro soundin' NICE! Glad you "got X-Fyle & Q-Red on tha tracks" (and it's not "X-Fyles"). Why he have ta say "got Rick Ross, Pleasure P, Bun B," on tha feature part? I rated those songs quite low. Plus, they NOT LOUISIANA, so I wouldn't give a fuck anyway. But, based off of that, I guess this came out before "We Got Issues!" I didn't know tha dates, so that's why I didn't know what order ta review 'em in. Either way, keep up tha great work, LOUISIANA style!! My Rating: N/A


Overall: It became 2 hours flat on tha review... Nice job wit most of tha songs on here. I felt REAL, REAL good about 'em!! Keep up this GR8 work 'cause I LUV my undaground Louisiana shit from tha 225 ALL DAY!!!

^ Just like "We Got Issues!", there were 5 4.6 rated songs, but they WEREN'T on tha battle for #1 'cause there were a NICE 6 songs betta!! Hope Issue responds to my reviews I did for him 'cause if he don't, I'ma be upset, especially if I can't get a tracklisting/front cover for this!
