Review #1,822: U.N.L.V. "Mac Melph Calio"

Reviewed on 10.14.2019 (Review #1,822)


Despite me bein’ in 1998 in my Louisiana Reviewz Marathon, sometimes, I had gotten CDs that were mislabeled. With that bein’ said, my next review iz really from 1995: U.N.L.V. Mac Melph Calio, released on Cash Money Records & was produced by Mannie Fresh. Start Time: 12:27 PM | End Time: 1:29 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!

© 2019 CD Review (Review #1,822) reviewed on 10.14.2019 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.

Link To CD: N/A


01. Intro
>>> Diggin’ tha beat sample! Gotta luv this dark vibe fa Cash Money! Gotta luv tha aggression from tha speaker, as well! My Rating: N/A


02. “Nigga I’m ‘Bout It”
>>> Sounds ironic fa Halloween comin’ up, as it has a sample goin’ on in tha beat, here! Definitely nice wit this hook and beat!! Tha 1st verse iz pretty gutta, to tha bone!! Definitely feelin’ tha aggression; pure heat, here!! “Don’t get too close or tha heat just might scorch ya!” Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and y’all goin’ off, continuously, wit tha consistency! Gotta luv it! As tha verse continuously goes on, it seems long but tha quality of it makes it not boring…! At 5:06, tha beat stopped & tha ramblin’-rap went crazy! My Rating: 4.7


03. “3rd Ward Court Date!!”
Just hate thinkin’ ‘bout tha “court date” comin’ up! >>> Beat & hook’s pretty nice, as it’s a lil’ laidback fa tha ‘90s & dat good, undaground rap… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds like your typical, ‘90s-soundin’ delivery, here; good shit… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and even tho y’all “stuck like Chuck,” I know y’all got through it! I feel “stuck like Chuck,” as well; it’s rough…! Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and it’s your ‘90s slice of pie, here… My Rating: 3.9


04. “Pop ‘Em Up”
>>> A ‘90s “car” scene, here, as it sounds pretty grimy… Between tha last song & this, I think of N.W.A., wit their outspoken-asses; gotta dig tha perspective! At 1:00, tha track starts & it’s pretty dope, between tha hook & beat. Feelin’ how gangsta this N.W.A.-inspired shit gets, durin’ tha 1st verse; plates breakin’!! Tha 2nd verse’s pretty nice; gotta dig it! “I don’t need stars on my chest to make my fuckin’ name bigga;” I dig it! That’s how I feel about myself; I’m stronger in tha brain but I remain tha same (person)! Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and it sounds like a nice dose of a paranoia trip; good shit…! Tha 4th verse’s soundin’ good, too, as tha rhymes keep flowin’, here…! Keepin’ tha 5th verse comin’ along wit some gunshots, here, keepin’ it “G,” to tha fullest! Sounds like y’all havin’ more fun than havin’ paranoia durin’ tha outro, here; nice U.N.L.V. shit…! My Rating: 4.2


05. “No Struggle, No Progress”
>>> Sounds like a nice lil’ beat; Christmas bells bein’ sampled? Almost sounds like it but I’m definitely feelin’ tha trippy start, here…! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and this gangsta tale’s soundin’ pretty nice; feelin’ it a lot on this beat! Dude on tha 2nd part of tha 1st verse’s pretty dope, wit his rhymes; gotta luv y’all…! Tha last 56 seconds of tha beat playin’ iz pretty dope; good shit! My Rating: 4.5


06. “Mannie Fresh Mix”
>>> Bouncin’ up & down ta this “mix;” good job, Fresh! My Rating: 4.3


½time: A 4.3-rated CD, so far; great gangsta tales! Keep ‘em comin’, y’all!


07. “Eddie Bow II”
>>> Great party vibe ta start thangz off…! Hearin’ y’all “bow” on tha hook reminds me of this dude from Baton Rouge that I no longer deal with. He claims he started tha “bow” shit (most-noted on Kevin Gates’ 2009 “I’m A Grinder” song). Meanwhile, here y’all are, 14 years ahead of that! Glad y’all here; good 1st verse, as well! Tha 2nd verse’s pretty nice and funny that y’all say, “Nigga, you ain’t tough;” irony fa tha future “bow?” Tha rest of tha rappin’, as well as tha chantin’, sounds nice, toward tha end; good shit…! My Rating: 4.2


08. “Come Up” feat. Magnolia Slim
>>> Sounds like a cool lil’ beat sample/sound, in tha beginning…! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ like a regular-soundin’ ‘90s flow, here… Tha hook sounds like a good, simple hook; nice job, y’all… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s soundin’ good fa tha ‘90s, once again… Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and it sounds like a struggle ta keep tha mission to survive alive. Luckily, y’all CMR representaz were able to build success from tha street life… Got tha 4th verse, here & I’m diggin’ tha gritty vibes of tha voice & delivery, here; Louisiana in tha house…! My Rating: 4.2


09. “Mac Melph Calio” feat. Mr. Ivan
>>> Sounds like a nice lil’ hook & beat; beat’s pretty dope wit tha sound! I know I’ve heard this one before; just re-reviewin’ it, while I’m in tha mood… Got tha 1st verse goin’ on and it’s soundin’ nice; y’all reppin’ nicely, here… Got tha 2nd verse goin’ on, here & it’s soundin’ good, of course… Tha 3rd verse’s pretty dope, wit tha fast-soundin’ rappin’; gotta dig it…! Glad Mr. Ivan was able to join y’all on this track, here; good shit, as tha 4th verse progresses…! My Rating: 4.4


10. “Shake, Shake It”
>>> Nice lil’ sample in tha beginning, here, as Aaliyah & DMX used for their collab, later on…! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and y’all got this shit on lock; good shit…! Hearin’ tha hook and it sounds good fa these hoes, here; gotta make ‘em “shake!” Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s soundin’ pretty eerie wit tha darker sounds in tha beat! Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and tha voice’s soundin’ more on tha southern tip, here; definitely nice…! My Rating: 4.3


11. “BGz True Story” (BGz)
>>> Kickin’ it off wit tha typical bounce-soundin’ sample… Got B.G. rappin’ on tha 1st verse, wit this lil’ sample; definitely nice! Tha 2nd verse’s soundin’ nice, too… Almost thought I wasn’t gon rate this, due to it bein’ just a sampler. However, I’ll give it its rating, due to all tha rappin’… My Rating: 4.2


12. “Hood Mac”
>>> Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ good on this ‘90s-styled beat… Got tha hook goin’ on, right nah & it sounds good ta hear, fa tha ‘90s… Tha 2nd verse sounds a lil’ more energetic; gotta keep tha energy comin’! My Rating: 4.0


13. “Local 580 Fuck Tha Police” feat. BGz, Black, Jack-O, Lil’ Slim, Mr. Ivan & Ms. Tee
>>> Sounds like a good lil’ hook from Ms. Tee, here; duckin’ tha 12! Beat’s a simple-soundin’ ‘90s style, which fits ta fit all these peeps on here! Hearin’ B.G. on tha 1st verse and he sounds good, as well as Ms. Tee’s “fuck tha police” background vocals helpin’ out…! Got tha 2nd ½ of tha 1st verse goin’ on, here & dude got tha aggressive flow, here…! Got tha 1st part of tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ good wit tha female-styled perspective of duckin’ 12; go, Ms. Tee! Here comes tha 2nd part of tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ good ta hear; gotta luv tha 504! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 3rd part of tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ good fa tha “block” & tha streetz! My Rating: 4.5


Overall: Nice job, y’all; glad y’all got tha reputation y’all deserved! Legends in tha 5-0-4 game! Plenty more U.N.L.V. durin’ my marathon! We’ll see when I get to those discs!

R.I.P. Video #61: Pimp Daddy



Broadcasting from tha Abandoned Pennsylvania Turnpike, here in Wells Tannery, PA, it's ya boy, FrankieThaLuckyDog here, sadly reportin' anotha tragic loss in tha Louisiana rap community (special edition).

Today, April 18, 2018, marks 24 years since tha murder of Edgar Givens, known in tha undaground, Louisiana rap scene as Pimp Daddy. Givens was born in 1976 and was from New Orleans. An early artist signed with Cash Money Records, Givens released his debut album, Still Pimpin', in 1993. Lookin' like he had a bright future ahead of him, unfortunately, tha good times were short-lived for Givens. In tha Florida projects in New Orleans on April 18, 1994, Givens was fatally shot and killed at point-blank range. Many believe a musical love triangle resulted in Givens' death; Rodney Temple was charged with life in murdering Givens. During his Cash Money time, Givens was said to be dating labelmate, Ms. Tee. However, another labelmate, Cheeky Blakk, claimed that Givens was tha father of her child. Needless to say, Givens was in an argument with Ms. Tee's brother. That's when Givens was shot in tha face and killed at only 18 years-old. One year after his death, Givens' 2nd album, Pimp'n Ain't E-Z, was released in 1995.

In 1994, they released their 2nd album, Straight Out Tha Gutta. In 1995, their 3rd album, Mac Melph Calio, was released, as well as Scrap Up!!. Their 4th album, Uptown 4 Life, was released in 1996. During 1996, life drew a hint of darkness for Thomas, as Thomas and Cash Money rep, Baby a.k.a. Birdman, started gettin' into it. U.N.L.V. was rumored to be dropped from Cash Money Records and Thomas pistol-whipped Baby. In a form of retaliation, many believe Baby killed Thomas. On April 5, 1997, Thomas was shot in tha head and killed in a dangerous drug deal at only 22 years-old. After Thomas' death, U.N.L.V. released their Greatest Hits compilation in 1997. After a four-year hiatus, U.N.L.V. returned in 2001 with their 5th album, The Return of U.N.L.V.: Trend Setters, on Blazin' South Records. In 2003, U.N.L.V. hit tha streets with their 6th album, Keep It Gutta, courtesy of B Real Entertainment. In 2004, U.N.L.V.'s 7th album, Gutta 4 Life, was also released on B Real Entertainment.

Review #1,718: Pimp Daddy "Still Pimpin'"

Reviewed on 4.27.2017 (Review #1,718)


Happy late birthday to my great-grandma, Lena; she woulda been 96 today! With that bein’ said, let’s stay motivated! Here goes an old review for Pimp Daddy Still Pimpin’, released in 1993, around, on Cash Money Records & was produced by DJ Crack Out & Mannie Fresh! Start Time: 2:16 AM | End Time: 3:01 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 and hoes (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

01. “Pimp Out ’93 (Lil’ Bit)”
>>> Sounds nice; good shit, here… Diggin’ tha flow of tha bounce vibe ova this gangsta beat… My Rating: 4.1


02. “What Kind Of Nigga”
>>> Sounds nice, here, wit tha upbeat beat of “Paid In Full”… Sounds like a nice lil’ hook, too; good shit… Props for keepin’ it movin’, here, wit tha rappin’… My Rating: 4.2


03. Crack Out
>>> Just sounds like a nice lil’ beat interlude; always gotta keep it movin’! My Rating: N/A


04. “Got 2 Be Real #2”
>>> Nice hook; nice bounce vibe… Of course, you keepin’ tha bounce vibe goin’ wit tha 1st verse, here, strictly spittin’ rhymes and riggity-riggity-rhymes!! Talk about crazy, right before tha 3:00 mark! “Gots-2-be-ah, gots-2-be-ah, gots-2-be-ah, gots-2-be-ah;” crazy! My Rating: 4.3


05. “Break’em Off Some” feat. Lil’ Slim
>>> This “’94,” huh? I seen a bunch of different results for this online… Either way, this has a usual beat for tha ‘90s that sounds nice/calm… Good job wit tha hook and 1st verse, here… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse and it’s nice ta hear… Talk about breakin’ ‘em “off!” And, a nice 3rd verse, here; nice job wit tha collab… My Rating: 4.0


06. “Real-Ass Gangsta”
>>> Feelin’ tha gat-soundin’ imitations on tha 1st verse, here, doin’ ya thang… Feelin’ tha hook; luv when you scat tha words! Tha 2nd verse’s nice, too, as we quickly get through this… Nice 3rd verse wit how all these ages were tha times, back then… My Rating: 4.2


½time: Not just your usual bounce music but more on tha gangsta side, here; definitely nice! A 4.2-rated CD, here; good shit! Gotta keep it movin’!


07. “God Bless Tha Dead (R.I.P.)”
My Current Rating: 4.0


08. “No Bullshit Biiiiitch” feat. Lil’ Slim
!!! >>> I like how y’all praisin’ tha producers in tha beginning… If this was two decades later, I can see this bein’ a beat tag: “If Mannie Fresh ain’t do it, we can’t fuck wit it!” With that bein’ said, tha beat’s nice and gangsta, here, wit a lil’ upbeat vibe goin’ on throughout tha hook, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s nice ta hear… Diggin’ tha 2nd verse, as y’all spittin’ some X-rated shit; good shit… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 3rd verse and y’all keepin’ it goin’, here; props… My Rating: 4.1


09. “Do You C What I C”
>>> Sounds like a nice bounce track, but wit a gangsta vibe, once again… Nice lil’ hook, here; all about “shmokin’ dat weed,” ya dig? Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s pretty nice, here… And, tha 2nd verse’s pretty nice wit how you continue to deliver them laidback, gangsta-tellin’, shmokin’-good rhymes, here… My Rating: 4.2


10. “Boo-Koo Bitches”
>>> Sounds catchy on tha hook, here; feelin’ tha bounce vibe in tha flow and beat… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s pretty nice, here; just keep spittin’! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ pretty nice, too… And, tha rest of this wit all these “bitches” iz nice, here… My Rating: 3.9


11. “Get ‘Em Up Niggaaaaa” feat. Ms. Tee
!!! >>> Sounds good; has a hidden Mardi Gras feel to it in tha background, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s nice; nothin’ ta really say, tho… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s nice, as well… Feelin’ all tha cities bein’ shouted out, here; so many ta name!! There’s mine: “New York niggaz, get ‘em up, my nigga!” Keepin’ it movin’ wit Ms. Tee on tha 2nd verse, here, spittin’ some nice, Jamaican-like rhymes, here; great collab… It’s like if Lady Saw was in tha N.O.! Lol, that’s tha first thang that came to my mind… Seems like this so long… My Rating: 4.1


12. “Hoeshit Ends ’94 Biiitch”
>>> A decent beat ta end thangz off with, that almost sounds like an outro in tha beginning, here… Yeah, just an outro; where’d tha “featuring Ms. Tee” come from? My Rating: N/A


Overall: Most of tha tracks had tha same vibe but it was a good, consistent vibe fa your Louisiana collection. Props to Pimp Daddy; wish there was more out there, today! But, we got this to enjoy…

01. “Self-Made Nigga” feat. Bad Fellas
Let’s hear it!! >>> Sounds pretty nice wit this beat, here; good shit! Anticipatin’ tha track from this intro, here! Sounds nice wit tha 1st verse, here… Not much goin’ on wit tha hook, here; it aight… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s not bad, here… Still soundin’ decent with tha 3rd verse, here; can’t say much… My Rating: 3.7


02. “Bitches & Niggs”
>>> Sounds like an okay beat, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s not bad, here… Most of tha shit I’ve been hearin’ on this CD’s been on a decent level, even tho I’m only four total verses into this CD, lol… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s decent; kinda flows with tha 1st verse without a transition, tho… Prolly coulda sounded a lil’ betta but anyway, here comes tha 2nd verse, spittin’ some facts… Nice wit what you’re spittin’ but some of it’s draggin’ and gettin’ borin’, fa me… My Rating: 3.5


03. “Talking Sporty Woty”
>>> Anotha one that sounds decent, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s aight wit what you’re spittin’… It seems like you had betta music before this, tho, so this just an okay CD, so far… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s decent ta hear… Decent shit comin’ outta tha 2nd verse, too; not much ta say… Tha rest of this just drags…; I’m endin’ it short… My Rating: 3.1


½time: A 3.4-rated CD, so far… I’ono, maybe it’s ‘cause I had a situation go on, yesterday that I’m not in tha mood fa this shit, right now… Then again, most of this shit I’ve been reviewin’s been decent…


04. “Stop Reppin’”
>>> Sounds like a decent beat, here; I’ono about this voice goin’ on wit tha hook… What tha hell this different, uncredited voice iz? Not really too crazy about it, on tha 1st verse… Yeah, I can’t take this serious! I don’t even wanna hear tha rest…! My Rating: 2.3


05. “Talkin’ Crazy”
>>> I hear tha beat sample in tha background, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s not bad, so far… Tha good thing iz, this track’s short so I ain’t gotta worry about it too much… Still, nothin’ really poppin’ wit this one… My Rating: 3.0


06. “Lame Niggas Get Hunted” feat. Maximus & D-Boy
>>> Tha hook has some good gangsta shit ta offer, but it don’t sound like it’s that serious… Like, I’m not used to this voice or somethin’? Beat’s kinda plain, too… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s decent; can’t say much… Tha 2nd verse kinda ehh, too; I don’t feel tha Louisiana sound in tha voice… Almost sounds like a southern Ma$e or somethin’! And, as we slowly get this review finished, tha 3rd verse’s decent, as well… As tha voices continue ta get random, we got tha 4th verse… Ugh! It almost sounds like it’s off-beat or somethin’! My Rating: 2.4


Overall: I ain’t really fuck wit this CD, overall… Kinda glad that there weren’t too many jointz, but nothin’ really was poppin’, here… I’ono, I thought you came through betta than this but this iz how this turned out… Also, I was hopin’ this wasn’t gonna end at 5:04, in honor of tha New Orleans area code! However, by one second, it ended at 5:05! What sour luck, lol!!


Rankings:

06.       “Stop Reppin’” 2.3

I hate to think that this tha worst review outta every one I’ve done in tha Louisiana Reviewz Marathon, for a rap CD? I know an R&B CD was really bad, but this gotta be tha lowest-rated one for a rap one…

Plyreem, again! >>> Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ good on this beat, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it sounds real catchy fa “not” givin’ “a fuck!” “I don’t a fuck, not a muthafuck;” dope shit! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s pretty nice, as well; catchy rhymes… And, we got tha 3rd verse, here, soundin’ pretty nice, as y’all keepin’ it movin’… My Rating: 4.3


13. “Be Your Man” feat. Courvosier
Plyreem doin’ tha production, here! >>> Sounds like a good lil’ 1st verse, here, on this beat… Tha hook’s ehh; this a decent track, overall… My Rating: 3.5


14. “Numbers Up” feat. Che, Kapone & Jaccpot
Mannie Fresh on this beat! >>> Sounds like a good 1st verse, here, wit Fresh doin’ a great job wit this more-exciting beat! Dope-ass hook! How about, a decade later, BluBlack & Pezie, outta Baton Rouge, remade this! Ain’t realize they knew this?! Tha “throw yo numbers up” shit sounds just like theirs! Crazy!! Neva know what’s next in tha reviewz! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s pretty aggressive, here! Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and it’s a lil’ calmer on tha voice, but they “don’t give a fuck like O-Dog,” lol; random… My Rating: 4.5


15. “Get Da Cream”
Playa beat, here… >>> Sounds like a catchy lil’ tune; luvin’ tha hook! “I’mma B-A-DD-F-E-L-L-A-Z!” Catchy lil’ beat, too…! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s pretty nice, consistently spittin’ dem rhymes!! Got tha 2nd verse goin’ on, here, and it sounds good ta hear, as well… My Rating: 4.4


16. “Dead Presidents” feat. Courvosier
Plyreem doin’ tha production… >>> Kinda sounds like a NY-soundin’ track or somethin’ that 50 Cent would rap off of, or someone else? Decent, here, but why iz it 6:56?!? I don’t even need to say anything! My Rating: 3.0


Overall: Most of this was pretty nice, here; definitely dug it! Great job wit this one, guys! Gotta keep it movin’!!
