Review #1,952: Lil' Bone "Pay Da Cost 2 Be Da Boss"

Reviewed on 12.30.2020 (Review #1,952)

 

 

Been a lil’ quiet wit tha reviewz, as of lately. With not havin’ a job fa four months & constant back/neck pains, I’ve been tryna get other ventures out tha way. I have new music comin’ soon, as well as a bunch of video countdowns & older projects I’ve been workin’ on, since tha previous decade. I’m also tryin’ to schedule my new album, Autistic Stoner Rap, as my 2,000^th review. After this one, I’ll be at only 48 more reviewz till that feat, so I gotta pace myself accordingly. Lucky for this review I finna do, I made sure that after meetin’ dude on September 2, 2020 & later recordin’ in dude’s studio a week later, I had ta buy this release & review it b4 tha year ended! Here goes my review fa my homeboy, Lil’ Bone Pay Da Cost 2 Be Da Boss, courtesy of Bonefide Music Group [pronounced “BONE-AH-FYDE”]! Shout out ta DJ B-Real fa playin’ a major part in dis, as well!! Finna shmoke me a bowl & get right inta dis “Bonepiece” [pronounced “BONE-AH-PIECE”], lol! Start Time: 8:13 PM | End Time: 9:35 PM

 

 

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

Producer: DJ B-Real

Let’s git it! >>> Definitely pretty dope-n-dark production vibes comin’ out dem B-Real keyz; 💯% pure!! Definitely a plus wit Bone comin’ through on this, wit 💯% confidence…!! Luv how B-Real’s keys, on tha hook, sounded like they sunk, on one of tha proceedin’ barz! Definitely catchy—I’m pretty high, as I start dis off; definitely official!! Lol @ Bone’s line about tha “studio […] features […], sayin’, ‘Lawd Jesus’!” I’m glad I’ve always appreciated bein’ in tha presence of you & tha Bonefide’s company; glad you & B tha A-Team!! My Rating: 4.9

 

 

02. “Should’ve Been Blowed Up” feat. DJ B-Real

Producer: DJ B-Real

Looks like it gon be dope…, of course! >>> Sounds like a good, dark, classic-soundin’ street vibe; definitely nice! Really feelin’ how B comin’ through on tha hook; definitely official!! Lol, totally in-sync wit tha title part!! Like, frfr, he definitely got it & feel like he will blow “up” wit it!! Definitely dope hearin’ him spittin’ rhymes on tha 1^st verse, tho; definitely official!! Felt every piece of it, from tha heart; that’s how B brings it!! Of course, you already know wit my opportunities comin’ up, I want B-Real ta “blow up” wit dis shit wit me, ya heard me?! Definitely, definitely…! Got you on tha 2^nd verse, Bone, comin’ through wit a successful past, present & future—that’s tha present, lol (feelin’ “successful”)…!! My Rating: 4.9

 

 

03. “I Be Cuttin’ Up”

Neva reviewed an album from iTunes that has multiple years displayed on tha tracks. This track iz from 2017, so let’s see how you was “cuttin’ up,” durin’ that tyme…! >>> Definitely feelin’ how you have that 💯% Jigga City vibe in ya, here, as well as tha dope-ass production!! You definitely stay in-sync wit dis shit, to tha fullest…! Definitely awesome ta hear you on tha 1^st verse, ya feel me?! From tha “golds” to tha “hoes” to everythang that make you cut “up,” you got dis!! Tha 2^nd verse dope as fuck, as well; glad you keep it as trill as can be; you already know what da bidness iz…! Sounds like it was meant ta be perfect, based off of how it’s a few years old & here, fa tha 2K20? Definitely!! My Rating: 5.0

 

 

04. “All I Need Is U” feat. Geeno & Drell

I hate when I buy albums from iTunes & random songs seem to not wanna convert. That means, I have to buy tha track(s) a 2^nd tyme on Amazon, in order to review/have tha track(s). Was this worth tha extra purcha$e…? >>> Don’t know if Geeno got tha singin’ vibe down pat like B-Real, yet? Sounds like an “A” track & by “A”, I mean Dat Boy “A”—“A”drian Bagh…er, lol; that’s how I detect how its voice sounds… I have ta say, not somethin’ that I thought was gon be depressin’; catchy shit…! Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse & you got some good shit goin’ on, whether it comes ta this loyalty shit; on Bone! Instantly, not tha type of track I’d go as crazy as tha 1^st three for but with this extra purchase, I guess tha “extra” was wortheth iteth, lol? Say that five tymes fast, lol! “Wortheth iteth, wortheth iteth, wortheth iteth, wortheth iteth, wortheth iteth!” Lol, I had only successfully said that five tymes fast, due to its rhythm, not how ta say it in str8-up English, lol! Don’t you luv that good, potent bud?! Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse & it sounds like a rough day in tha hoodz of BR; glad tha “struggle” brings tha BEST strength out ya…! Overall, a decent lil’ luvable song… My Rating: 4.2

 

 

05. “Who Cares” feat. DJ B-Real

Producer: DJ B-Real

! … ! … ! … >>> Sounds like a cool lil’ sample/key manipulation in tha beat? Cool; diggin’ how tha hook sounds pretty hypnotizin’, even wit B-Real playin’ wit tha voice EFX & shit… At least it’s only a portion of a voice effect on tha hook, overall; it’s acceptable, here. Hearin’ tha 1^st verse from Bone & it sounds pretty fucked up wit tha whole custody/baby-mama drama…Sounds like a dope lil’ B-Real verse on tha 2^nd verse, here; definitely cool…! Sounds like he runnin’ a race durin’ tha beginning of tha verse & then, hits us wit tha brakes ta slowly end his verse; definitely dope! Luv how this sounds real hypnotizin’, real & boss-made, tho a “struggle” on tha outside, literally. My Rating: 4.7

 

 

06. “Ain’t Gave Me Nothing” feat. Doe Boy

Almost ain’t recognize this Doe Boy till I randomly looked on my blog & almost 400 reviewz ago, back four years ago, I reviewed seven-year-olds All Eyes On Me by Nino, as well as Soul Muzik by Geeno; Doe Boy iz featured…! *Re-reads reviewz…* Hmm, looks like I went way more with tha Nino route…! I remember when Lee Banks went by tha moniker, durin’ tha 2000’s & early 2010’s. Seein’ later on this release that this Doe Boy done passed, let’s see how much he was worth, here, as I hear this…! >>> Sounds like a cool lil’ beat; definitely pure, to tha fulless! Cool lil’ hook wit how you come through wit some of tha best-soundin’ shit fa tha undaground! Glad you released this tha day b4 my most-recent birthday, tho I neva got tha chance ta peep it out till now…! I kept my promise; glad I’m reviewin’ this, right nah…!! Hearin’ how you come through wit tha hook, again & that “nothing” vibe makes you a strong one; real talk! Got tha good-ole Doe Boy on tha 2^nd verse & yeah, definitely nice wit what he presented fa you, here…! Sounds like he had it rough wit tha BM drama; thank God I hopped over that venomous rabbit hole!! Either way, definitely a dope collab, from gettin’ it out tha mud!! My Rating: 4.4

 

 

07. “Built Like Dat”

2K-shitty-18, here… >>> Sounds like a nice lil’ beat start, here…! Sounds like anotha pure, Jigga City-type vibe, like anotha random/dope night in tha yo—tha Bonefide yo, that iz!! Sounds like a dope lil’ 1^st verse, tellin’ “it like it iz,” like a real ‘80s baby in they 30’s would! Definitely feelin’ how you comin’ through on this, to tha fullest; definitely addictive & respected! Gotta be “Built Like Dat”; you already know what it iz! Keepin’ this shit goin’ wit tha 2^nd verse, here, comin’ through wit nothin’ but tha best! You 💯% in these streetz; I can hear it in tha ‘80s-baby quality of yours, of course! Dem ‘80s babies know what it iz!! My Rating: 4.8

 

 

½time: Did tha weed make it seem like this a special review?? I feel that it depends on tha original AL—anticipation level. Because this was pretty “up there,” like my dude, Killa McClain, I already know that tha weed only made tha AL potent, ya heard me? It’s like I can really appreciate & expose tha good vibes, ya feel me?! Definitely on tha right track, with a 4.7 for tha average rating, right nah…!! That’s HUGE!!! It’s Young Ready That’s How I’m Coming—type HUGE!! I feel like it’s those dayz, again; what betta way fa me ta approach Age 21!! I’m SO glad I got ta reviewin’ this, like I said I was gon do, back on November 8^th! It’s all about accomplishin’ what you say you gon do! That’s why, I’m leadin’/am valuable, till this day!!

 

 

08. “Take A Ride” feat. DJ B-Real

Would love to…! I remember when you & B took “a ride,” earlier this year, on May 2^nd. Y’all went to tha N.O. & when I checked into tha live, I luv how B was like, “Frankiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiie!! Frankiiiiiiiiiiiie!! Tha Lucky Dog…!” Great tyme; now, let’s see if this “ride”’s worth it! >>> Definitely dope as fuck wit tha screwed voice, as well as tha beat intro slowly hittin’ hard!! Sounds like a dope lil’ hook, once again! I feel almost tha same way wit tha B-Real voice-effect exploration, like from earlier in this review…! Sounds good wit how you got tha 1^st verse goin’—should I say, “Ridin’,” like you, Bone, lol? Definitely dope; luv tha “lean!” Luv how you fulla dem good “pillz,” just bein’ tha celeb you iz!! Luv how this has a bit of an H-Town vibe in tha lyrics, as well as how y’all slam tha BR vibes!! Ooh, B-Real on tha 2^nd verse, really feelin’ tha vibe, to tha fullest (both B-Real & I feelin’ tha vibe)!! Definitely nice; luv how he have tha H-Town accent in this, too! Speakin’ of this past year, I luved when, on April 29^th—I actually guessed it right, just now—B-Real had a story with, I think, tha Fredo Most Hated release in tha background & at tha end, he was like, “Yeah, that real mud!” I feel tha stickiness in it, displayed here!! My Rating: 4.8

 

 

09. “My Nigga (R.I.P. Doe Boy)” feat. Baby D

I see y’all made a typo on tha late homie’s name, here. Usually, tha typo iz a surroundin’ key; “B” & “D” are, like, keys away, lol… Either way, same thing wit Doe Boy, we got Baby D, here, on tha feature. I know of a Baby D from tha crunk tymes of tha 2000’s, as well as tha Baby D in tha dance-music world of tha ‘90s. Now, we have a Baby D in tha 2K20’s—oh wait, 2K18, accordin’ to tha year. He musta passed a while ago? >>> Again, it may sound like anotha instant doubt but I’ono if this chick can be on a B-Real level, between this singin’ & tha BR tight vibes…? I can appreciate it; it ain’t no supa-sad song, luckily. I feel how tha beats back it up in a nice way, ya feel me? Maybe, I should do a tribute video on Doe Boy, one day? At least you provided a fact in tha beginning of tha 1^st verse, “October 30, 1991.” Oh, damn, “October 14, 2017;” that’s following a Friday tha 13^th & that was tha same day that dude in tha BR streetz raped, robbed & threatened me! That street name where it happened just grosses me out, now!! However, I do remember bein’ in BR, durin’ that trip (my 3^rd trip); I remember tryna get a hold of B-Real & Pablo Escobar told me that homeboy passed away. I ain’t connect who I thought died vs. Doe Boy as tha same person but now, it makes sense. Needless ta say, definitely feelin’ how you expressin’ tha pain, stories, life tymes & all tha moments ova this pure quality (production)!! Back ta hearin’ tha 2^nd verse & I luv how you lead tha leader path ta your neph, here; glad you inspired his presence! I look at you as a pure BR a$$et, no doubt; keep up tha Bonefide grind!! Afta hearin’ how this track came out, between tha story & vibe, I seem ta like it more than when it started…! My Rating: 4.4

 

 

10. “My Girl”

Producer: DJ B-Real

Hmm… >>> Sounds like a cool lil’ B-Real beat, here. Like, it’s a gumbo pot? Sounds like it’s for tha ladies; sounds like it’s a lil’ bit on an upbeat R&B vibe; sounds like it’s for tha BR streetz? Lots in one gumbo pot!! Luv how you comin’ through on tha 1^st verse, here; definitely official! Luv how B-Real holdin’ tha beat down, durin’ tha different patterns & shit; definitely official! Luv how you comin’ through on tha 2^nd verse, Bone; all tha way “naked” on they ass, too! Gates closed, it’s Bone’s home, here! Also, tha singin’ cool; glad it came out tha way it did, nice & catchy/hood, ova tha B-Realness! My Rating: 4.6

 

 

11. “I Heard” feat. DJ B-Real & Peter Pound

Str8 outta 2K18 wit a Small Circle Kartel collab, here…! >>> Definitely dope shit fa tha streetz, here; all about them damn problemz! Great job collaboratin’ on tha hook, between you & P-Pound! Also, B-Real on tha 1^st verse, here, all about tha instant/“direct” route, here! Always know you always got it, B-Real! I gon make SURE that I always got it, all day, every day!! Got P-Pound on tha 2^nd verse, here, comin’ through wit his presence, soundin’ dope fa these SCK streetz of BR…! Though 2K18 lead to my arrest, at least there was this hot track ta locally make it through tha shitty air! Glad you got a FANTASTIC ear fa DOPE tracks, Bone!! You on tha 3^rd verse, here, comin’ through wit them bullet-piercin’ rhymes & flows fa tha 2-2-5; 💯!! My Rating: 4.5

 

 

12. “What U Need” feat. Big Wayne & Young Bleed

Producer: Big Wayne

Nice that you got Bleed on tha feature. I know when I was wit you & B on September 2^nd, we talked about my upcomin’ mega BR collab. Not only am I still invitin’ you on to tha collab but I even had Bleed in mind, as well. When I told Bleed I was makin’ my way to tha Boot, he said, “I’m in Kentucky,” smh. Needless ta say, here we go wit dis track; can’t wait ta hear…! >>> A nice lil’ intro; let’s git it…! When will Big Weezy make a comeback fa me? Been almost four years since our last talk… Like, my last talk wit him iz almost longer than me not talkin’ ta B-Real? Like, seems like two different planets, though it’s my same life… Tha hook definitely nice fa tha streetz; gotta luv it & why I luv tha BR lyfe…! Got you on tha 1^st verse, Bone, comin’ through wit your dope rhymes, as always; you know what it iziz…! Keepin’ it movin’, of course, Mr. Blizzeed on tha 2^nd verse, here, comin’ through nicely on a Wayne beat…! Should I feel like it’s a guilty pleasure ta currently give Big Wayne feedback? Big Weezy soundin’ nice on tha 3^rd verse; I’ll leave it just at that, until he reconnects wit me. In tha end, we all ‘80s babies… Then again, when he said, “Fuck jail,” it’s ironic that while we weren’t talkin’ (still), I was in “jail” on his birthday, in 2019; damn, Big Wayne… My Rating: 4.3

 

 

13. “Out My Brain” feat. DJ B-Real, Nino & Don Julio

Looks like it gon be a hype, fun track…!! >>> Yeah, sounds like a pretty hype hook; luv how B-Real comin’ through wit these “barz” & as a “Watson!” Luv that it’s a “Circle” presentation, here; you know what it iz!! “Been poppin’ since 3:00,” huh? Definitely all-nightin’ to tha fullest, here; crazy! Can only imagine tha EXPERIENCES goin’ through y’all!! Bone, you really official wit it!! Nino comin’ through on tha 2^nd verse & he sound like he one of tha most-official ones, here; I’m definitely always down ta kick it wit BR’s best, in tha undaground! Oh boy, B-Real on tha 3^rd verse, comin’ outta nowhere wit “two,” when it comes to them “tabs;” definitely 💯!! Like, 💯 x 💯, accordin’ ta B-Real’s body?! I think so…! Definitely real nice wit how he provided his 💊-up & 💊-out ass, lol!! Luv how tha ending just echoes, fades & iz still aggressive af!! My Rating: 4.9

 

 

14. “Stop Cuffin’”

Producer: DJ B-Real

Two words I hate! “Stop” & “cuffin’,” especially since my arrest in cuffs! That don’t “stop” me from anticipatin’ this one as a hot joint, tho…; maybe? >>> Luv how tha intro part reminds me of our boy, Doe-Doe, in a sense. Like, BR’s undaground, with tha dialect/beat vibe combination? Definitely dope; feelin’ tha hook, too, wit tha beat goin’ off & tha catchiness…! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse & it’s pretty nice, as “nice” iz tha consistent way you know how ta deliver them tracks! 💯!! Bone always bones, lol, comin’ through wit tha “bitch” swappin’! An all-in hook!! Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse & tha consistency continues; livin’ that everyday life of tha BR undaground, here…! My Rating: 4.2

 

 

15. “Made Something Outta Nothing” feat. Geeno & Drell

Sappy-type of ending…? I only rated it a 3.3 when I reviewed it, back in 2K13… >>> Yeah, a lil’ sappy but I feel like I have a lil’ more appreciation fa it. Sounds like tha bouncy-type of BR beat sounds good wit how y’all came from tha “nothing;” thumbs up…! Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse, Bone & I’m feelin’ how you expressin’ tha life of tha Bonefide! Real talk…! Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse from Drell & it’s pretty nice; nice lil’ consistent flow, even if this seemed like a decent 1^st listen, in tha past… Even a lil’ bit of Geeno comin’ through wit an outro part/endin’ of this release… Good job, y’all; glad I’m feelin’ it a lil’ more ta help it keep up wit your consistent ratings…! Great job; you bring an A+ vibe ta BR & I’m glad you know where tha REAL “A”-Game at!! My Current Rating: 4.0

 

 

Overall: I knew this release was gon be tha shit but I ain’t thank by shmokin’ that weed that this was gon make me feel like I was in 2008, only high!! That’s how I definitely want ta live my life, ya feel me?! AWESOME job believin’ as much in B-Real as you do; definitely worth a FORTUNE, in tha end!! Even doin’ this review felt like I was in 2008 with how it progressed, my inescapable feelings bein’ expressed, tha quality & B-Real’s contribution rate!! Definitely one for tha books, here!! Hate that I reviewed it a half-year & a third-month—lol—late, lol. However, I’m just glad you got my $$$, Bone, not just for this release but already on tha bidne$$ side of thangz! That’s a “W” for “Wonafide,” lol; frfr!

Review #1,602: Geeno "Soul Muzik"

Reviewed on 12.01.2016 (Review #1,602)

I’ono about my next review, here, with it bein’ on tha R&B side… Geeno Soul Muzik, released in 2013 on Small Circle Kartel Entertainment… Start Time: 6:25 PM | End Time: 7:27 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!

Link To CD: http://www.datpiff.com/Geeno-Soul-Muzik-mixtape.557639.html

01. “Ever Loved Somebody”

G-Motive on tha beat… >>> Beat ain’t too bad, here… You’re settin’ a decent vibe with your singin’, here… Tha hook ain’t too bad with a sample, surprisingly… My Rating: 3.1

02. “Come Home”

You produced this one… >>> I kinda like this singin’ a lil’ betta but this still ain’t really up my alley… You sound good wit tha singin’ but I’ono how much regular people can take this serious, as far as a mainstream appeal or somethin’… My Rating: 3.2

03. “Dance The Night Away”

Julio on tha beat… >>> Titled “Dance With You” on DatPiff… I ain’t really feelin’ or anticipatin’ this voice… Ehh, can’t really say much about this; just a usual attempt at today’s R&B… My Rating: 1.7

04. “All My Love”

G-Motive beat… >>> Even slower but not too bad, so far… Ehh, kinda dead-beat but it ain’t bad-bad… My Rating: 2.3

05. “Bad Girl”
>>> May not be my type of music to anticipate, but this beat intro got me hyped! Even referencin’ R. Kelly & Big Tigger’s “Snake”, too… Tha hook sounds pretty nice and this soundin’ like it’s flowin’ in a special way… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s soundin’ good, too; can’t complain… Could this be my top-rated one? My Rating: 3.7

06. “Cater 2 U” feat. Nino & Doe Boy

Same thing with this title… BeatMonstaz on tha beat… >>> I think tha title on tha DatPiff tracklist looks betta as “Dedicated 2 U” than just “Cater 2 U”…? Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse and it ain’t bad fa singin’… Rappin’ on tha 2^nd verse, here; consistent shit, Doe Boy, even tho I don’t think tha fastness fits this vibe… Fuck! Tha ID threw me off on tha back cover! Tha DatPiff one got it right wit Nino before Doe Boy… Aight, here comes Doe Boy on tha 3^rd verse and it sounds good… Even tho I don’t fuck wit this shit, his shit with tha “R. Kelly” music reference makes good for a lil’ fuckin’, right? My Rating: 2.7

07. “#2”
??? >>> Big Wayne doin’ tha beat… I actually like how this sounds fa a slow one and tha hook ain’t too bad… Rappin’ on tha 1^st verse, here, soundin’ decent… Here you are on tha 2^nd verse, singin’, soundin’ decent… More rappin’ goin’ on, here, on tha 3^rd verse, soundin’ aight… And, more rappin’ on tha 4^th verse, soundin’ nice… I’ono who all tha rappers are, tho; doesn’t say, anywhere? My Rating: 3.5

08. “Change Yo Life” feat. Lil’ Mook

Kinda scarin’ me wit these no-producer tracks… >>> It did say a producer in tha beginning, but I couldn’t catch who it was… Beat sounds a lil’ upbeat but tha quality of tha audio sounds a lil’ on tha undaground/low quality side… Tha hook aight; can’t really say anything on it… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse from Mook and tha rappin’ sounds cool, here, keepin’ it southern… You on tha 2^nd verse and it ain’t too bad… My Rating: 2.8

09. “Uncomparable”

??? >>> Big Wayne on tha beat… It sounds decent, here, on tha hook… Kinda boring and draggin’, but it iz what it iz… My Rating: 2.6

½time: So far, outta tha back cover’s tracks, I ain’t hear “Like Ohh” (produced by B-Real & NeilOnDaTrack), “Thank They Know” (produced by WeThaFewture), “You Wrong” (feat. Drell & produced by B-Real) & “The Forecast” (produced by B-Real). It’s like, talk about unexpectedly avoidin’ B-Real! But yeah, I don’t really come here to review R&B music that’s on tha boring side… So far, only a 2.8 for tha CD rating…

10. “Sorry” feat. Nino

Don Julio on tha beat (full name?)… >>> Not anticipatin’ this sorrow shit… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s bleh…!! You on tha 1^st verse and it’s aight… Nino on tha 2^nd verse, really lovin’ “this relationship,” as he don’t “wanna quit!” My Rating: 2.1

11. “Dey Call Me”

WeThaFewture beat… >>> Really? WTF (lol) are tha “you know I made tha beat” people, smh? Fuck that! Kinda likin’ that this more on tha rap side, as far as tha production… Kinda likin’ how you comin’ through on tha 1^st verse, as if Ginuwine was havin’ fun or somethin’… Tha hook sounds pretty anthemic; ain’t expect this hyped-upness… Tha 2^nd verse’s soundin’ nice, too, even tho there’s a lotta big dreams bein’ displayed on tha track, here… My Rating: 3.4

12. “Lovers & Friends” feat. Blvd Jay & Roota

Wasn’t anticipatin’ this title, as I thought it was gon go a Lil’ Jon & The Eastside Boyz & Usher route. However, Big Wayne produced this, so hopefully, it’s a lil’ betta? >>> Looks like I was right about tha remake; bleh… Sounds betta than usual shit on here for a production from Big Wayne, but ehh… You on tha 1^st verse and I ain’t really got anythang ta say about it… Tha 2^nd verse iz you again, soundin’ a lil’ catchy wit tha flow, here… Blvd Jay on tha 3^rd verse, layin’ down some rhymes… Jay + Big Wayne on tha combination sounds like a good lil’ Baton Rouge rap song, overall… And, a 4^th verse: Roota comin’ through, comparin’ tha “bitch” to a “new brick;” dope… Basically, I only came here for tha rappin’… My Rating: 2.2

13. “Your Love”
??? >>> Big Wayne beat; Big Wayne produced a bunch of these tracks that are not on tha back cover… Beat’s kinda plain with a few catchy sounds and you sound decent on this… Nothin’ much ta say about this, overall… My Rating: 2.5

14. “Tell Me”
No producer listed… >>> Just decent, once again… My Rating: 2.0

15. “Something Out Of Nothing” feat. Lil’ Bone & Drell

No producer listed… >>> A lil’ more jammin’… Even on an R&B CD/track like this, there’ll be “money” rappin’, smh… Either way, nice to just randomly hear a Bone verse, I guess? Drell sounds nice wit tha rappin’ on tha 2^nd verse, too… Kinda glad this was more on tha rappin’ side, compared to tha R&B vibe of this CD… And, endin’ it wit you singin’… My Rating: 3.3

16. “Finally Here”

Don Julio on tha beat… >>> Decent; nothin’ much ta say, once again… My Rating: 2.4

17. “Stressing Me” feat. Rundy

Endin’ it with a no-producer track? >>> This iz what it iz… Rundy sounds nice and hyped-up wit tha rappin’, tho! My Rating: 2.9

Overall: Not really an R&B type of person… This shit was decent fa an R&B CD, even tho I ain’t rate it too high… I was wonderin’ why all those tracks on tha back cover I ain’t hear on here? Also, some tracks were in tha folder and not on tha back cover? Confusing…

Review #1,189: Big Wayne "Loyalty Before Royalty"

Reviewed on 9.19.2012 (Review #1,189)

My 4^th review for today iz Bad Azz Entertainment’s Big Wayne Loyalty Before Royalty! Shout out ta Big Wayne & tha fuckin’ incredible, DJ B-Real!!! Start Time: 7:14 PM | End Time: 8:03 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!

01. “Loyalty Before Royalty” Feat. Lil’ Jazz

Let’s start this thang off! >>> Sounds good wit tha Boosie sample goin’ on, here, wit tha slammin’ beat!! How ‘bout some, “Free Quick!!!;” gotta represent fa him, too! He should be as important as Boosie…; well, he’s more important to me, anyway! Good shit from you on tha 1^st verse, Wayne, strictly holdin’ shit down fa these BR streetz!! When I hear all tha “if I fuck wit you, I fuck wit you,” it always reminds me of you, and your loyalty, ya feel me? Hearin’ tha Jazz dude on tha 2^nd verse, and they sound like a really young person? Almost thought it was a female, at first; thumbs up for these rhymes! Quality “before” swag!!! Likin’ tha “phone call” 3^rd verse from you, here; all about tha middle finger to tha incorrect, and all five fingers to tha correct! Yea, “Free Quick!!” Speaking of writin’, I wrote Skull Duggery today, since his birthday’s next Monday; hope he’s hangin’ in there! My Rating: 4.5

02. “Riding & Smoking” Feat. Lil’ Bone

>>> Definitely likin’ tha beginning wit you gettin’ “fulla dat shit!” Nice laidback-type shit, here; good shit on tha 1^st verse, Big Wayne! One of tha best feelings of enjoyin’ life iz in tha car wit some good-good, music, and whereva you at! Anotha newbie on this CD (Lil’ Bone), and he sounds like he can blend in good wit tha Bad Azz Ent. fam on tha 2^nd verse! You’re back on tha 3^rd verse, and you ain’t stoppin’ wit nothin’! Tha storm didn’t stop you from doin’ anything, but it fucked up some people I was ‘pose to get a tiny amount of money from! Only a Big Wayne would survive tha storm, and a P.A.N. wouldn’t! My Rating: 4.4

03. “Purple Smoke”

!!! >>> Sean T beat; let’s keep tha “smoke” theme goin’!! Great intro from you, “gettin’ fulla dat purp!” Good shit you got goin’ on wit tha 1^st verse; a focused Big Wayne, thanx to dat “purple smoke!!” Whether you let dat “phone ring” earlier, get back at me so I can get you to freestyle for my upcomin’ mixtape compilation (my 11^th one), due out this Saturday! Keepin’ this shit goin’ on wit tha 2^nd verse, and you’re fulla dat “lean,” too, lol? Big Purple Wayn—might as well take out tha “e” in your name, lol! My Rating: 4.4

04. Skit w/Monte & DJ B-Real

I remembering fixing tha volumes in tha skits! I remember them bein’ entertainin’, too!! DJ B-Real, he’s got a voice that’s like weed; you gotta hear what he has ta say!!! >>> My mastering on tha volumes sound good, don’t they? Love talkin’ dialect; y’all do a nice job wit it, and you’re analyzin’ these people to see if they’re real or not! My Rating: N/A

05. “My Territory” Feat. DJ B-Real

Yea!!! >>> Tha hook sounds pretty nice wit this beat; all about tha area! Yes, shit-fuckin’-yea!!! DJ B-Real’s on tha 1^st verse, and I’m lovin’ what he puttin’ on tha track, here!! First off, tha “weed” part’s real great ta hear! A month and five dayz ago, I texted him, sayin’, “I have 2 admit, B-Real, ur like a part of tha air we breathe for BR! It's almost like if ur not around, we, as humans, can't breathe; keep doin' tha damn thang! Ur 1 of da best!,” and he was really appreciated by it! I mean, DJ B-Real = some good kush in our system, right?! Also, thumbs up fa tha gangsta shit, too; B-Real iz easily one of tha best fuckin’ people in tha world!! Love him ta death!!! Good shit from you on tha 2^nd verse, here; you givin’ tha streetz what they want, and it’s official! Huh? Who’s on tha 3^rd verse? Can’t tell who it iz, and they’re not identified, but they did a nice job reppin’ hard fa y’all! My Rating: 4.7

06. “Come Own Waddup”

>>> Neva fallin’ “off;” y’all always stay on this undaground and mainstream rap radar! Really likin’ tha beat, here, and you’re comin’ through wit some kick-ass gangsta shit, here! Yea, “waddup?” They don’t wanna talk ‘cause they pussy!! Had a few dummies “runnin’ they mouth,” this year; you can only see their real side when they pay you for somethin’! Oh, look at tha background on my desktop: It went from my gurl, Alexia, to… DJ B-Real!!! LOL! Definitely feelin’ this gutta shit you bringin’ to tha table, all by yourself!! You even got tha hot shit comin’ along wit tha 2^nd verse; Big Gangsta Wayne!! My Rating: 4.6

07. “I’m 2 Much” Feat. Dolby D, Snap, T London & DJ B-Real

>>> Nice beat; tha southern vibe of these Bad Azz Ent. boyz! I like tha 2^nd ½ of tha hook wit tha “I’m 2 much” shit repeatin’; I’ll admit to likin’ that singin’ part a whole lot!! LOL @ your “son,” Big Wayne; he a lil’ Wayne (but not Lil’ Wayne), doin’ his thang! Thumbs up for tha 1^st verse, Big Wayne; keep kickin’ ass!! Tha 2^nd verse sounds good; wit all this “Pac” shit goin’ on wit tha hook, it almost sounds like this has a southern “Pac” feel ta this shit! Did I hear, “B-Real, you tha truth,” before tha 3^rd verse? I think that’s him, secretly; ahh, hate how he’s not in tha ID, but he’ll be in this review’s ID!! Nice dinosaur bone-type ending! My Rating: 4.5

08. Skit

Yes, anotha skit! >>> DJ B-Real!!! Such a great voice; BR would be dead without him! I like tha whole anti-Big Wayne hater goin’ on, here; glad B-Real can prove him wrong! Love hearin’ him talk, and I can’t wait to meet his ass one day! My Rating: N/A

½time: Anotha classic release from you, Big Wayne; keep tha hot shit comin’!!! A 4.5-rated CD, currently; thumbs-tha-fuck-up!!!!!

09. “Only 1 I See” Feat. Dolby D

Interestin’ title… >>> Dolby D singin’? Almost sounds like dat dude Adlib, outta BR… Anyway, catchy singin’, once again, and I’m likin’ how y’all comin’ through on this beat! Guess it’s Dolby rappin’ on tha 2^nd verse? LOL @ my confusion; don’t picture him appearin’ on tha mic (rappin’ and singin’), but it sounds good, almost on some Bone Thugs-N-Harmony-type shit. LOL @ “no Fergie, no auto-tune;” good for tha a-tune, but “no Fergie” makes me lol! It’s like, you can throw Future or Weezy in there, lol! My Rating: 4.3

10. “Shining Own ‘Em” Feat. Lil’ Boosie

>>> Under three minutes; time ta kick ass in a quick way!! Really likin’ tha beat you’re providin’ here, Big Wayne, strictly “shining” tha shit outta err-body, here!! Good shit comin’ from you on tha 1^st verse; gotta luv your “suck our dick” persperctive, as you could care less ‘bout anyone…—yea, anyone in your way! Boosie on tha 2^nd verse, and thumbs up fa havin’ your own beat fa him ta rap on, here, ‘cause it sounds real nice! I like tha instant “huh bruh” and “fasho” parts in tha beginning of tha hook; oh, that dialect!!! My Rating: 4.6

11. Skit

Skit #3!!! >>> Ooh, DJ B-Real comin’ through outta nowhere!! Uh oh, a phone call; got me locked in!! Bet people get tha chills just hearin’ DJ B-Real speak! I like tha whole “bet” thing goin’ on when it’s spoken; sounds regular wit a text/written, but when it’s said, ooh! My Rating: N/A

12. “Got Me Thankin’”

>>> Anotha nice beat goin’ on, here, and it sounds like you’re comin’ through wit some good shit on tha hook; keep grindin’, Big Wayne! Great rhymes wit tha 1^st verse, and interestin’ that this iz only 2:20 on tha length; quick, quick, quick! Textin’ DJ B-Real right now: “Ur pretty much equivalent to good kush in our systems, u know dat, B-Real? That’s how POWERFUL u are!!!” Let’s see what he’ll say back! BTW, only one verse? My Rating: 4.3

13. “Fuck Them Hoes” Feat. Lil’ Bone

>>> Sounds like a nice way ta attack these “hoes” wit this track! Great beat and nice attacking hook, lol! Sounds like you’re bein’ dickrided on tha 1^st verse from these “hoes;” tell ‘em how you really feel, Big Wayne! Let’s hear this Bone dude on tha 2^nd verse… Err-body sounds perfectly fit for tha label, no matter who or when it iz! Good shit from Bone, comin’ through wit his undeniable rhymes! My Rating: 4.3

14. “Fulla That Shit”

Fasho! >>> Stand up!! “Fulla that shit!!” Great hook goin’ on, here; almost makes people horny for weed or somethin’, lol? Great beat, too; you definitely can hold “shit” down at all times!! Gotta luv your “fulla that” anthems!!! Good shit from you on tha 1^st verse, strictly “fulla that shit!” LOL, no designated drivers? You may have me one day drivin’… Here’s tha 2^nd verse, and it’s you comin’ through wit a “drunk man dick,” lol; bet tha ladies get a full meal, 24/7, and not just when you “fulla that shit,” lol! My Rating: 4.6

15. “I Don’t Know” Feat. D Dawg & DJ B-Real

>>> Iz dat my big dawg, DJ B-Real on tha intro? It iz!! I like how this hook sounds wit wantin’ “some answers!” Nice beat ta go wit this shit; great hook!! OMG, just heard DJ B-Real, secretly, on tha 2^nd ½ of tha hook!! OMG, I get so excited just hearin’ him!!! I like your attitude on tha 1^st verse, just comin’ through wit dat shit fa err-body! I like tha random “I don’t know” part in tha hook, and I can see why y’all mad at tha “white folks…” Hearin’ this D Dawg dude on tha 2^nd verse, and they’re comin’ through wit a good vibe fa this street shit! I bet a female can suck DJ B-Real’s lyrics when he repeats ‘em; “mmm, mmm, mmm,” as they’ll prolly repeat! Yes, DJ B-Real on tha outro!! Thumbs up fa tha outro, includin’ dat G-shit he sayin’; fuck all tha fakes! People dat are money virgins! My Rating: 4.8

16. Skit

Whoo!!! >>> Now, it’s back to you on tha skits, Wayne; handle this P.A.N. right now, lol! I like how you talk fast when you talk; thumbs up fa mention DJ B-Real! No matter which brother comes through on this P.A.N. talkin’, y’all’ll put this dude in his place! My Rating: N/A

17. “Money Make The World” Feat. Snap & DJ B-Real

Shit-to-tha-muthafuckin’-yea!!! >>> Here you are on tha beat, endin’ thangz off!! Tha hook sounds good, goin’ round wit this “money!” Tha 1^st verse sounds good wit how you’re comin’ through, here; glad “money” ain’t a problem to a real dude like you, Big Wayne! Got Snap comin’ through on tha 2^nd verse, and he’s explainin’ ta err-body dat “money [does] make tha world go round;” trill shit! Bonus rapper on tha 2^nd ½ of tha 2^nd verse? Who iz it? Feelin’ how they’re comin’ through wit this shit; nice and rapid!! Time fa tha 3^rd verse… “Verse 2,” Big Wayne? Was it inserted incorrectly, lol? Anyway, I know it’s tha 2^nd Big Wayne verse on this track, and you’re takin’ notes in a great way, here! Well, I thought I was gonna hear DJ B-Real, but I didn’t; a lil’ disappointin’, but I think you meant D Dawg was tha feature? I’m not sure… My Rating: 4.4

Overall: This was definitely excitin’ to hear; loved tha whole CD, once again!! You know what it iz when it comes ta dat great-soundin’ BR-type music!! Keep up tha great work—you & DJ-muthafuckin’-B-Real!!! He didn’t text me back, yet, but I’m sure it gon be real good!!!
