My
next review just so happens to be a double-disc release! Gonna take about 2 ½
hours ta review this, so here I go: Murder
Dog Magazine Presents Southern XXX-Posure,
released in 1998 on Dogday Records!
Disc 1: Start Time: 6:34 AM | End Time: 7:06 AM
Disc 2: Start Time: 7:10 AM | End Time: 7:31 AM
Overall: Start Time: 6:34 AM | End
Time: 7:31 AM
Disclaimer: I rate each song from 1.0
– 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion!
I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care how lyrical you are, as long
as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and
then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings. If a
song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6
rating, I pretty much really love it,
as it’s considered mindblowin’ when I
hear it! Any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type
before “ >>> ” iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song;
anything after I type “ >>> ” iz what I think of tha song while I’m
listening to it. If you sound like anything too mainstream for me, have
auto-tune in your vocals, or talk about nothin’ but money (which I consider
‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!
