Review #893: Lil' A-Baby "Lost Love & Waiting For Love"

Reviewed on 3.25.2011 (Review #893)


This next review iz Lil’ A-Baby “Lost Love & Waiting For Love”; I don’t think I’ll like this one too much, I betcha. Start Time: 11:24 AM | End Time: 11:34 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. “I Forgive You”
>>> Why tha singin’? What happened to shit like “Tell Dem”? Sounds like a guilty side; no interest. My Rating: 2.1


02. “Gotta Have You”
>>> I rather swim in Janis Joplin’s throw-up than listen to dis hook! At least you’re rappin’, here. My Rating: 1.7


03. “Need A Real Woman”
>>> This izn’t interestin’; tha singin’ iz a lil’ spooky fa me. My Rating: 2.3


04. “Gotta Go”
>>> A female’s featured on here; scary, at times. My Rating: 1.6


05. “Let Love Find U”
>>> Nothin’ ta say ‘bout dis… My Rating: 2.0


06. “Let’s Vibe”
>>> I don’t get dis vibe you’re bringin’ to tha table… Even though there’s rappin’ on here, it’s still a lil’ strange for me, soundin’ like a Pop song Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em would make. My Rating: 2.4


½time: Bleh…; 2.0-rated CD, currently.


07. “Singing For Me”
>>> Tha title, already, iz scary; what do I need ta say ‘bout dis? My Rating: 1.3


08. “Settle Down”
>>> A lil’ betta but still weird. My Rating: 1.9


09. “Lean On Me”
>>> Featured person on tha 1st verse? Why no IDs, this time? Glad there’s normal rappin’ but tha hook spoils it, a lil’. At least you’re rappin’, too…; sounds a lil’ like Lil’ Ruthless on tha feature? My Rating: 2.5


10. “OutStanding”
>>> Not likin’ tha Pop sound in tha beat. I dunno what ta say about dis… My Rating: 1.5


11. “We Can Go”
>>> Don’t like dis sound, once again. Tha raps aren’t dat bad, overall; you got a mysterious feature, once again, here. My Rating: 2.3


12. “Stay”
>>> Yuck, especially tha 5+ minute length! Really gettin’ tired of hearin’ dis singin’! I like tha fast shit in tha hook wit tha “stay/gotta go” but overall, not for me. Thumbs up fa havin’ a feature on this, though; they help you out. My Rating: 1.4


13. “Take Our Time”
>>> Endin’ it with anotha not-special joint, smh. At least this iz a lil’ on tha “love” side, in a good way; I can’t complain too much ‘bout dis… My Rating: 2.4


Overall: I guess you should retire from singin’?

01. “Intro”
>>> Good rappin’ for a start. I didn’t expect a hook, too. My Rating: 3.8


02. “I’m Da Shit”
>>> Sounded like a good start but I think I just gon cut this off ‘cause it sounds gay as fuck! My Rating: 1.0


03. “I’m Ready”
>>> Sounds catchy wit tha hook; decent rappin’, on a catchy level. My Rating: 3.6


04. “Tear It Up”
>>> Beat sounds poor. Why are tha lyrics on a fightin’ level? This beat ain’t tight/crunk/rough at all! Weird mix… My Rating: 3.3


05. “Can’t Stop Me”
>>> Reviewed previously and—oh, this iz anotha “Can’t Stop Me” song? Thought it was tha same as Rilla’s song. Anyway, of course, this iz betta, since it’s only decent. My Rating: 3.2


06. “I Want Dis Money”
“I” don’t like titles like dis… >>> How many times do I hear shit like dis? It’s catchy but what did I learn from this take? My Rating: 3.5


07. “Shorty U A Dancer”
Don’t like dis title at all… >>> Nothin’ bad but no, this iz not for me. My Rating: 2.3


08. “Keep On Movin’”
>>> This ain’t bad at all… My Rating: 3.6


09. “Listen To My Music”
It’s “to” in this title; you should know dat. >>> Sounds like somethin’ Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em would come wit; nothin’ special. My Rating: 2.8


10. “They Don’t Like Dat”
>>> Catchy hook… This iz somewhat catchy for a song. Mysterious feature? Why does everyone say, “ain’t I, ain’t I, ain’t I, ain’t I”? My Rating: 3.4


½time: So far, a 3.1-rated CD; nothin’ all that great, unfortunately.


11. “Don’t Try”
>>> At least this iz more catchy; I like tha spellin’ in tha hook. Not bad for a song although what’s up wit all this “money” shit all tha time? My Rating: 3.6


12. “You Want Me”
>>> Sounds like pure garbage in tha beginning; do I even have ta listen? Maybe good fa you but I don’t see a thing wit this shit at all. My Rating: 2.2


13. “She Got It”
>>> LOL, how many times can you say tha title in tha hook? Even though that caught my attention, dat doesn’t mean this tha best-soundin’ song. At least this one ain’t longer than two minutes; don’t need long songs all tha time. I like tha fastness here… My Rating: 3.7


14. “Let’s Vibe”
>>> Now, you’re fuckin’ up wit tha long-ass, not-called-for, five-minute-length songs! Tha hook’s a lil’ scary and I’m just skippin’ dis; fuck how this sounds! My Rating: 1.0


15. “Blow Up”
>>> Why does this sound familiar? It’s good fa what it iz… My Rating: 3.6


16. “So Gone”
>>> Sounds like more garbage. Not tha worst, though, when it comes ta what it iz for a song. My Rating: 2.6


17. “Hold Me Down”
>>> *Skips* My Rating: 1.0


18. “Already Know”
>>> Heard this Vybe, preset hook already, so no plus. This izn’t that special; what’s wit tha mysterious features? You sound a lil’ betta once your part comes on… My Rating: 3.1


19. “We Hood”
>>> Anotha bad ear for beats. Somewhat-good content but why a plain beat like dis? Doesn’t match… Still, pretty-good-soundin’ content. My Rating: 2.9


20. “TakeOver”
>>> Tha hook’s pretty gay; skippin’ to tha 1st verse… Not bad… You sound just as good as tha dude on tha 1st verse. My Rating: 2.2


21. “OutIntro”
What’s wit “OutIntro”? >>> “Buyin’”? You’re sellin’ this? I dunno if this iz special or not to sell; tha “Who I Am” one iz better… My Rating: N/A


Overall: Nothin’ special for me; sorry.

Review #805: Rilla "Da Hardest Out Vol. 1"

Reviewed on 1.17.2011 (Review #805)


This next review I have iz wit Lil’ A-Baby Entertainment, I believe. I know that’s where I saw it, so I assume… Rilla “Da Hardest Out Vol. 1”; what’ll it offer? Start Time: 11:16 AM | End Time: 11:40 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.

Source (Where I Got Tha CD From): http://www.facebook.com/pages/YoungOnez/103800956341296


01. Let’s Play (Intro)
>>> This iz really gay. I’ll let it slide as just an “intro” and not rate it! How does this even mix wit somethin’ bein’ called “da hardest”? Not at all!!! My Rating: N/A


02. “We On” (Mr. Moo Money Feat. Mz. Moo Money)
>>> Too long of a beginning; c’mon, already! Sounds like Lil’ Ruthless, here… Not really anything special for me although an aight collab. My Rating: 3.2


03. “Rilla Freestyle”
>>> SMH @ missin’ an “e” in “freestyle”; does dat mean y’all can’t “freestyle”? Decent/nothin’ special, here. I thought a “freestyle” iz ‘pose ta “go hard”… My Rating: 3.3


04. “Deuces”
>>> SMH @ tha beat choice; why not “Stereo Love”? You can’t be different? I don’t see anything wit dis. My Rating: 2.6


05. “No Pain, No Gain”
>>> Not for me; don’t even like this title/topic either. My Rating: 2.5


06. “I’m Gone Get It” (Lil’ A-Baby Feat. War & Rilla)
>>> Since this iz soundin’ original, it’s not too bad. Tha hook ain’t too bad and tha verses are aight. Tha content’s boring when it comes ta tha “money” shit; I don’t get it wit everyone and these erected obsessions. My Rating: 3.6


07. “Real Shit”
Why a title like dis? Don’t you know I hate when people put “real” in their things? I put “official”, instead! >>> This iz boring as far as what’s goin’ on wit tha beat and I’m not too interested wit how this sounds, overall. My Rating: 2.4


08. “I’m Da Shit” (Mr. Moo Money Feat. Mz. Moo Money)
>>> Sounds like below average-soundin’ music when it comes to tha content. Not catchy enough ta impress me. My Rating: 2.5


09. “My Hotel Room”
Not lookin’ forward ta hearin’… >>> Tha hook’s gay and so iz tha long-soundin’ intro. There’s nothin’ too special ‘bout dis, unfortunately. At least you’re a lil’ descriptive wit tha shit here (e.g., tha “nails” part). My Rating: 2.2


10. “Lean On Me” Feat. RockyBoy & Lil’ A-Baby
>>> What’s wit these horrible, pointless, sappy-soundin’ beginning beats? Tha fast rappin’s pretty good but tha hook sounds like a Poppy Nick Lachey; why on a Louisiana CD? Tha rest of how everyone else comes through on this iz decent but not really tha shit I’d really like. My Rating: 2.4


½time: Only a 2.7-rated CD for me.


11. “Show Out”
>>> A lil’ weird wit how it sounds like an anthem all of a sudden. My Rating: 3.0


12. “Shut It Down”
>>> LOL @ tha Lil’ A-Baby “bow” shit in tha beginning; where’d tha influence come from wit dat beginning? I dunno why but this sounds pretty familiar… I don’t see it anywhere; maybe it’s cliché? Tha beat ain’t too bad and tha aight shit from you kinda sounds betta on a beat like dis, regardless of how much I ain’t into it. My Rating: 3.5


13. “Speed Dial” (Lil’ A-Baby Feat. Rilla & Marly)
>>> Really not likin’ tha hook. SMH @ all this “Polo boxers and Polo socks” shit on tha 1st verse; a lil’ too descriptive in a weird way… Tha singin’ makes this really weird fa me… My Rating: 2.0


14. “Still Grinding” Feat. Lil’ A-Baby & Yung Blo
>>> Sounds good/betta than usual. My Rating: 3.7


15. “Actin’ Bad”
>>> Tha hook’s a lil’ catchy although tha lyrics are a lil’ below average for me on tha rappin’. My Rating: 2.7


16. “It’s Hard On Me” Feat. Lil’ A-Baby
>>> Not really inta how tha hook sounds; don’t really need ta hear singin’-type vocals all tha time. A somewhat-good collaboration fa what this CD iz made of. My Rating: 2.6


17. “Can’t Stop Me” Feat. YP & Lil’ A-Baby
>>> Tha hook destroyed it for me; no interest at all here! My Rating: 1.4


18. “Bad News (Remix)”
>>> You mean “news” in tha title and not “new”, smh? This sounds betta as far as tha production… My Rating: 3.4


19. “Dumb Way” Feat. M.O.B. & Gen
>>> Really cliché on tha hook, unfortunately. LOL @ an artist actually named “M.O.B.”? Where do these obsessions come from? Do you die without it or somethin’? My Rating: 3.0


20. “Found U (Remix)” Feat. Lil’ A-Baby
>>> Sounds like a shitty ending wit this garbage-soundin’, slow beat. I feel like I’m gonna lose my patience although this tha last song so I can calm down, now. Too weird fa me; nothin’ special. My Rating: 1.9


Overall: Why iz this called “Da Hardest Out” when not even one song went “hard” (4.0+ rating)? Too much typical topics, bad beats, and nothin’ all that catchy enough for me.

Source (Where I Got Tha CD From): http://www.facebook.com/larry.n.dunkan


01. “Roger That”
C’mon… I hope this gets better… >>> ROFL, random start? What’s wit tha crappy mic? Tha “N” word and a crappy mic don’t go together! Okay, luckily, it’s soundin’ betta on tha verse. Nice job wit tha rappin’ but hearin’ too much about “money” iz a lil’ gross… My Rating: 3.4


02. “From The Streets” Feat. Lil’ Ganggsta & Lil’ A-Baby
Are you a Lil’ A-Baby relative/friend? >>> He even producin’? This iz somethin’ new that I learned. Sounds much betta than tha 1st song. Pretty-catchy hook; this tha kinda shit dat would sound pretty good on my radio show. LOL, startin’ dis thang off wit Lil’ Ganggsta on tha 1st verse, doin’ his thang to tha fullest. Tha 2nd verse sounds pretty good. Not much ta say but good job. Tha 3rd verse iz also keepin’ thangz goin’, too. My Rating: 4.4


03. “Fuck His Bitch” Feat. Lil’ Ganggsta & Lil’ A-Baby
LOL, a clone of tha last joint? >>> This iz entertainin’; A-Baby doin’ tha damn thang on tha beat once again, too! Funny shit comin’ outta Lil’ Ganggsta’s mouth here, lol! Nice job wit tha 1st verse, Ganggsta, doin’ tha damn thang once again! Tha 2nd verse sounds like a guard wit tha voice, lol! Good shit! Really feelin’ what’s goin’ on here wit everything combined! LOL @ how A-Baby comin’ through on tha 3rd verse; what’s wit all tha different “fuckin’s”? Iz there a high rate fa aids or somethin’, smh? I don’t get it… My Rating: 4.3


04. “Lights, Camera, Action” Feat. Lil’ A-Baby & War
What do we got here? >>> Again, soundin’ pretty catchy… Tha hook iz really simple but not bad. LOL @ you wit all tha “fuck”-interests in tha 1st verse mixed wit tha “camera”, lol. LOL, A-Baby on tha 2nd verse? He should be above War in tha ID. Pretty good… War must be on tha 3rd verse, “gettin’ head while countin’ bread”? Who iz this dude? Don’t even know him but his status dat high? Really…? My Rating: 4.0


05. “Marydale” Feat. DT & K-Shocka
What’s this? >>> Spellin’ tha title out; aren’t you from Thibodaux? What/Where’s “Marydale” then? Catchy… whateva this iz, lol. ROFL @ tha “thuggin’” start ta tha 1st verse. Good shit… Not too bad wit how tha 2nd verse sounds; pretty much an anthem here, lol. LOL, more “thuggin’” in tha 3rd verse; quite entertainin’. How come everyone takes money serious? Like, iz there any fun (e.g., video-taped moments, creative moments) wit gettin’ money? I dunno but good job fa what you contributed, Shocka. My Rating: 4.1


06. “Polo Down” Feat. J-Prince & K-Shocka
ROFL… >>> Sounds like your heart was pumpin’ ta make somethin’ like dis; how much? Other than tha hook, I dunno ‘bout dis; why do I gotta hear dat stupid “swag” word so much in everything I review? LOL, tha dude on tha 2nd verse sounds pretty serious… LOL @ all dis money chasin’! Funny how it mixes wit “Polos” as well as “hoes”, too, lol. How much does your heart beat fa “Polo”, lol? Sounds like you’re obsessed; betta not say, “boxers”, smh. Sounds like a hella-funny-soundin’ verse, lol! Tha hook made me like dis more… My Rating: 4.2


07. “Put Yo Hood Up” Feat. Eddie
I don’t like that tha mp3 info says, “my new song;” I almost was like, “huh?” >>> Sounds simple. Uh oh, “dat Dale iz where I’m reppin’,” lol! You know, dumb shit! Tha 1st verse sounds good… Tha 2nd verse sounds like you always in tha hood or somethin’. My Rating: 3.9


08. “Shut It Down” Feat. YP & Lil’ A-Baby
LOL, what do we got here? >>> ROFL, sounds funny, in a tight way, in tha beginning! Tha “liquor” shit’s quite funny; what made y’all choose dat? LOL, it’s funny how everyone makes a song about shuttin’ a club down; I wonder what pumps tha heart ta do dat? Tha beat’s real nice and tha 1st verse sounds pretty tight, too. Tha 2nd verse iz pretty good, too; feelin’ this “hood” shit, ya dig? YP – who he? Pretty consistent; funny how everyone has a gun, lol. I’m glad I neva touched one in my life; it’ll prolly be like dat, too! Not bad for Lil’ A-Baby’s 3rd verse; sounds like random lyrics that anyone could spit, lol. My Rating: 4.2


09. “Blow Up” Feat. Lil’ A-Baby
>>> What’s up wit this “Super Mario production” shit, lol? Catchy hook… Tha 1st verse’s catchy, too. ROFL, it’s Lil’ A-Baby outta nowhere. Sometimes, I can’t tell when voices blend in. If that’s you on tha 2nd verse, it sounds like this shit’s keepin’ thangz consistent. My Rating: 3.8


10. “All Black” Feat. DJ, Bubba Baby & Davon
LOL @ this title… >>> Not too interested in a length of 4:57; hope it doesn’t bore me. What a funny title on how it applies to tha hook; why tha color “black”? Funny… Tha 1st verse sounds like it’s on some paranoid-type shit, lol. LOL, I heard somethin’ in tha mic (not a sound, just tha quality) in tha dude on tha 2nd verse comin’ outta nowhere; funny… LOL @ “G-53, that’s bingo;” crazy shit here! Tha 3rd verse sounds so random wit all these guns, lol! It’s like, don’t have beef, then; you don’t need guns, lol! LOL, anotha “Dale” representa? How you get ta have so many people from tha same area be cool wit you? My Rating: 3.9


½time: A 4/5-rated CD so far; good job!


11. “Got That Tool” Feat. K-Shocka & DT
>>> What a random beat you chose from years ago, lol… Funny dat it’s anotha gun-related song. Oh no, “dressed in all black” for tha start of tha 1st verse, lol! Sounds like tha flow’s a lil’ odd here and there. Tha 2nd verse’s keepin’ it gangsta, too. Where do your gangsta roots come from and when? It would be cool ta have some explanations instead of just hearin’ ‘bout everyone randomly havin’ guns and shit, lol. My Rating: 3.7


12. “Wake Da Club Up”
LOL @ a title like dis… >>> This sounds good as far as tha beat and what’s goin’ on here. Pretty typical on tha content, though; not that excitin’ when I hear tha same shit here and there. My Rating: 3.6


13. “We Can Go All Day” Feat. DT
>>> Sounds like a pathetic approach at makin’ a song; gay hook. This iz more boring fa me, unfortunately. Tha rest ain’t that interestin’ fa me, either. My Rating: 2.0


14. “Over”
>>> Not this fuckin’ gay-ass, played-out-ass, dumb-ass, confusin’-ass beat; tha hook, too! Why, lol? Tryna be like everyone else? Tha rappin’ ain’t too bad… My Rating: 2.3


15. “Go Hard” Feat. K-Shocka
>>> What a NICE first three seconds! Tha hook almost sounds gay but it’s not bad. Tha 1st verse iz good; kinda funny here wit tha gangsta shit outta nowhere. Why tha gay-ass A-Tune in your voice here and there? You know what year it iz, smh? Tha 2nd verse sounds betta; good shit from Shocka. Oh damn, he suckin’ dick, too, wit tha A-Tune? SMH… My Rating: 2.9


16. “Claimin’ U A Dog” Feat. Drew
Looks interestin’. >>> ROFL @ this beat; hope you don’t duplicate tha flow, smh. It sounds catchy—like my boy Gutta Boy Gucci on tha flow. Not bad but not really special fa me. Now, Drew sounds like Gorilla Zoe a lil’ bit. Sounds like anotha good dude you recruited onto your CD… Very interestin’ verse although kinda funny dat it’s automatically a gangsta-related verse. My Rating: 3.5


17. “Da Takeover” Feat. Lil’ A-Baby
I have a CD called “Da Takeover” from Lil’ A-Baby that I might review tha top of next year. What’ll this joint sound like? >>> Interestin’. How come A-Baby’s tag sounds like a white, 40-year-old radio announcer, lol? Sounds good and lol @ tha “Dale” shit again; reppin’ hard, lol. Mr. A’s on tha 2nd verse, doin’ a good job as a featured artist. My Rating: 3.8


18. “Stacks”
>>> Gay beat start. I don’t think I’ll be able ta handle dis; I’m not picturin’ a mainstream sound! Decent wit how you sound on tha verses but nothin’ I’d really like, like; can’t take dat annoyin’ flow. My Rating: 2.5


19. “Soloo”
Wit multiple “O”’s, lol? You trappin’? >>> This ain’t too bad but I really liked tha beginning songs when A-Baby was producin’… My Rating: 3.3


20. “Grind” Feat. DT
Let’s hear dis. >>> Sounds catchy on tha hook. How do you exactly spell your label name? I’ll just spell it as Klik Klak Ent. for now. Tha 1st verse ain’t too bad, as y’all keep dis shit catchy. Tha 2nd verse sounds funny wit tha “money” obsession, lol. My Rating: 3.6


Overall: Not bad for a CD. I like where you reppin’ from and puttin’ that mysterious Dale on tha map, lol. Keep up tha good work and get more A-Baby beats on tha next project!

Review #714: Lil' A-Baby "Who I Am"

Reviewed on 12.20.2010 (Review #714)


Time fa review #6 for today: Lil’ A-Baby “Who I Am”, just like my debut single released a lil’ over three years ago! Start Time: 3:31 PM | End Time: 4:14 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. 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. “Who I Am”
Lemme find out “who you [really are]” by listenin’ to dis CD!! >>> Good but even betta for an intro track! LOL @ even mentionin’ “[fuckin’ an] ol’ lady” in an intro, lol. What tha hell’s up wit tha hook? Not too bad but a lil’ too instant. My Rating: 4.2


02. “Tell Dem”
ROFL, this song. I think I aired it as “Tell ‘Em” on tha radio but it’s cool. Lemme review it and see what happens… >>> I like how you handlin’ yourself on tha beat. I’ve always really liked tha hook. Because it has popped up in my head here and there, I’m bound ta add this song into my personal playlist. It’ll either be tha end of this month or beginning of next month. If it’s tha end of this month, it’ll be featured in my 11th annual 2010 year-end countdown! Keep these rhymes comin’, ya dig? LOL, keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 3rd verse, too; good shit! My Current Rating: 4.4


03. “Ahead Of Time”
Keepin’ it goin’… >>> Slow start. LOL, Mod Productions beat? How much you pay fa dis one, lol? I thought I’d be disappointed but it’s not too bad wit tha hook. Interestin’ shit in tha 1st verse; really, it’s “fuck everybody” wit tha perspective. If you keep a perspective of not carin’ ‘bout others, you’ll get there (like me). ROFL, you have a “probation officer”? Weird… Good ending, too. My Rating: 3.9


04. “Fuckin’ Over Y’all”
>>> LOL, what’s all this mumblin’ and talkin’ goin’ on here in tha beginning, lol? I like this beat much betta than tha previous Mod Productions beat; you got anotha plus here! Thumbs up to tha REAL GR8 sounds in this beat; prolly one of his best, don’t chu agree? Nice job wit tha 1st verse and doin’ a nice job wit tha hook, too. Tha 2nd verse iz showin’ your consistency; good shit… LOL, anotha funny outro… My Rating: 4.4


05. “Nigga If U Fake” Feat. RockBoy & YP
Good thing it doesn’t have “real” in tha title or else dat would look “fake”, ya dig? >>> LOL, anotha Mod Productions beat? Damn, you got tha beats on lock! Tha hook’s definitely true; thumbs up ta dis shit! Tha 1st verse iz consistent; I really like what you bring to tha ta—“on this liquor,” lol? How random… I could’ve sworn you were 20 but I think you’re around 20, 21. Still, kinda funny ta randomly, automatically enter a different world. Me, I take things step by step. Sounds like someone else (from “Thibodaux”) on tha 2nd verse; Rockboy representin’! Good thing you got people representin’ wit you; he did a good job, ya dig? LOL, anotha dude on tha 3rd verse? Shout out ta dis YP dude fuckin’ wit you, too! My Rating: 4.4


06. “Take A Hit”
This looks like it gon be good; tell me you smoke! >>> LOL, no Mod Productions beat this time… Lots of echoing background vocals so I couldn’t get tha topic of tha title, unfortunately, lol. I like how you comin’ through on tha 1st verse. LOL, where does all tha toughness come from? That’s cool dat you “rock Polo;” what got you inta “Polo”? This CD iz REALLY consistent; you doin’ tha damn thang here!! Okay, hearin’ tha hook for tha 2nd time and tha “hit” iz equivalent to a punch, lol. LOL, only one verse? My Rating: 4.3


½time: Very consistent here; really feelin’ all dis shit!! Your “Tell Dem” turned into so many more quality jointz—like babies, lol! You’re at a nice 4.3 for tha CD rating right now! Lookin’ forward ta hearin’ tha rest of dis shit!!


07. “Take It Slow” Feat. KIG
>>> What a weird start; that hook’s kinda gay for me. Tha rappin’ in tha 1st verse doesn’t even sound like you—unless you, just, grew, lol. Why couldn’t this be tha 120-second song instead? Okay, it’s now you on tha 2nd verse, soundin’ pretty weird but wit a good flow. Sometimes, I don’t realize tha features ‘til I see it pop up on my iTunes. Not bad, overall. Tha beat kept it goin’ and it made me like tha hook a lil’ betta; good job. My Rating: 3.6


08. “Freestyle 1”
LOL, a freestyle? >>> Sounds like a Vybe/ripped-off version of “Umma Do Me”? Weird… Funny rhymes here. “Took a hoe to tha movies”? How’d you manage ta make dat happen? Was it hard? Good rappin’; too short for me to really judge, though. My Rating: 3.7


09. “Thinking Of You” Feat. RockBoy
I dunno ‘bout a title like dis… >>> LOL, dis doesn’t sound like Super Mario or any kinda video game, smh. LOL, do tha hooks just get gayer and gayer? Almost got tha 1.0 rating/skip from me! Tha hook’s so distractin’ to where I can’t even figure out an interest for tha verses… Tha 2nd verse sounds kinda childish on tha content; lots of negatives here… My Rating: 2.2


10. “Somewhere I Gotta Go” Feat. Trelly & YungBlo
>>> Not as gay as tha last song’s hook but still weird. Nice start to tha 1st verse wit tha “represent where you from if you smokin’ on dat pound”; interestin’… Good job wit tha 1st verse. What kinda “shows” are y’all doin’? Doesn’t dat involve money and transportation? Tha 2nd verse sounds like there’s friendship involved; don’t know how y’all make it happen. Tha 3rd verse sounds gross wit all this “ditchin’ hoes” shit. “Eva since I was 15, I was M.O.B.”? LOL, and what happened? My Rating: 3.5


11. “One Word”
>>> Still on tha weird tip for me; not improved, yet. I like tha “…like a cell-phone” part. Somethin’ about this brings interest ta me; I guess it’s tha smooth beat? I don’t get tha “fussin’ ‘n’ fightin’”. Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and there’s more complaints goin’ on? “When I wanna fuck”? Where does tha access and ability come from? Do you, just, naturally fuck? All this mysteriousness brought attention to me! My Rating: 3.7


12. “I’m Hott (Clean)”
Clean version? Where’s tha dirty version, lol? >>> Did it say dat you were on tha beat? Finally, back to tha anthems!! Nice job wit tha 1st verse; good shit! You’re back to tha consistentness!! Tha 2nd verse’s nice, too! LOL @ “BET”; there’s still demand for them? I thought they really fell off a long time ago without Rap City? My Rating: 4.1


13. “My Anthem Song”
>>> Not likin’ tha sad beat mixed wit a bright attitude? I guess that makes it normal… I like tha positive rappin’ for some reason. Even though it doesn’t sound like somethin’ I’d really like, I just like it when it’s in your perspective. It’s almost like wit myself: how did I get to this point? How’d this become my 714th review? How did I manage to get paid for things? I just did things for fun and it turned out ta be a demand, surprisingly. I like tha “iPod, deck, CD” part; good shit! My Rating: 3.8


Overall: Good shit, my boy! I look forward ta gettin’ to tha other CDs before tha year ends! Keep up this consistent work!
