Comin’
up next, I have a review for tha birthday boy, today: Formerly, with Easy
Hustle Entertainment. Now, with Mayham Entertainment; here’s my review for Level Club
Banga King 2!! Happy birthday…, whether you care or not. Wish I’d hear
from you. Still waiting to see if you got my awards. You should not be M.I.A.
like this… People who are dedicated usually get in touch wit dedicated people
like me! And, as dedicated as I am on peoples’ birthdayz, I’ll even start this
review at 8:28 PM, Level birthday time. No one’s like me, Level; rememba dat! Start Time: 8:28 PM | End Time: 9:39 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! After I
was robbed by an artist who claimed they “get money,” hearin’ about how much
you “got money” and anything “money” really bothers me. If you have not done
business wit me before, I won’t tolerate “money” talk in tha music!!

01.
Intro
Let’s
hear it!! >>> Sounds good, but why “mixtape”? I consider
this an ALBUM!! My Rating: N/A
02.
“Let Us In” Feat. Juvenile & Lil’ Trill
You
know how Juve do it!! >>> Ooh, G-Motivation
on tha beat, here; sounds pretty anticipatin’! Glad Juve came “ta fuck wit
you!” Definitely feelin’ tha hook; very addictive wit how you deliver tha
title!! Here you are on tha 1st verse; kinda blah, blah, blah; yada,
yada, yada, but I guess it serves its purpose fa this kinda club song… Juvenile
on tha 2nd verse, here; how can a legend like him be last in tha ID?
Sorry, Lil’ Trill, but you gotta move over! Juve sounds pretty nice, here;
kinda feels like tha N.O. in B.R. wit tha way G-Motivation did this beat; great
combo!! Now, Lil’ Trill on tha 3rd verse, here, wit his “rounds.” Startin’
ta sound a lil’ like a younger version of Mista Cain, here, but you can’t deny
this… My Rating: 4.7
03.
Bay Bay Speaks
>>>
Good advice. But, now that 2013’s more than halfway over, things
have been soundin’ really quiet, especially toward my way wit you; I don’t get
it…? My Rating: N/A
04.
“Level Rock”
LOL
@ tha repeat!! My Current Rating: 3.7
05.
“Get Out Tha Way”
Feat. Kevin Gates
Looks
anticipatin’…!! >>> Didn’t catch tha beat tag at
first, if that’s what that was in tha beginning… Almost sounds like a Louisiana version of
Sean P of tha YoungBloodZ on tha hook… Pretty catchy, and I heard a tag: It’s
EQ Tha Misfit on tha beat! Pretty nice how it sounds, here; I know you luv EQ!! Hearin’ you on tha 1st
verse, and it sounds pretty nice… Damn, EQ did tha beat tag again? No need for
a 2nd time… Got Gates on tha 2nd verse, here; a lil’
automatic wit tha positive rhymes, at first, but I feel when he be spittin’ ‘bout
dem mollies! Great collab, once
again! And, here you are on tha 3rd verse, comin’ through wit mo
good shit ta hear! My Rating: 4.5
06.
“Easy 2 Find” Feat. Lil’ Mista
>>>
Mr. “T-Motor” a.k.a. G-Motivation on his grind fa you, Level;
anotha beat, here, and it’s soundin’ jammin’ already! Not sure where I heard
this from, but this iz very familiar from somewhere… My Current Rating: 4.7
07.
“Swagga Back”
>>>
Ooh, sounds like Loleatta Holloway screamin’ in tha background
(like a sample or somethin’). Then again, not really into this; not sure why I’m
commentin’ on this a-tune shit… But also, you’re not terrible wit dat shit; it still sounds a lil’ catchy. Either way, I’m
25; not really into “swag” shit; seems after my time… My Rating: 3.1
08.
“Hot Spot (Remix)” Feat. Mz. Trill
Seems
outdated, in my time, for a remix now… >>> Of
course, for those dat ain’t know before, J Buc on tha beat, here, and boy, he
can make tha drips drop!! Same beat and hook, here, too… Still sounds nice; Mz.
Trill & you should be a couple—wait, you have kids, so I think that option’s
off limits? Anyway, I feel tha same about this remix as I did tha original. My
Rating: 4.5
09.
“I Love You For That” Feat. April Reign
I thought her name was “Reign”, not “Rain”?
>>> Beat from Q-Red, here. Kinda sounds like a
soft song at first, but then again, it sounds like dedication. I love how you
have all this dedication, but where’s tha dedication toward me? I thought it
was “money ova bitches?” This case, as well as almost everyone in Louisiana, sounds like “bitches
ova money.” Either way, guess you’re dedicated in a good way for tha 1st
verse… Got mo shit comin’ through fa tha 2nd verse, here… Level, I
can’t understand this dedication you
have, especially when you don’t make any initiatives with me! Speakin’ of
dedication, it was Jigga House Records’ Zeus’ birthday Saturday, tha 24th,
and rappin’ granny & I DROVE from Port Jefferson Station,
NY to Egg Harbor Township, NJ, to where he was (3 hours), back on August 22,
2011, at tha Zeus building ‘cause it was his birthday:
See, Level!!
Dedication!! And of course, Zeus luved it!!
Anyway, a singing verse fa tha 3rd
verse, here, from April Reign. Almost sounds like a Ja Rule/Ashanti/Lil’ Mo
collaboration wit tha “what would I be without you” shit. Nothin’ wrong, here;
sounds good, and I’ll even give this a good rating. My Rating: 4.2
10.
“He Ain’t Like Dat” Feat. Mouse On Tha Track
Real nice beginning, here!! Anotha
collaboration wit Q-Red doin’ tha track! Great anthem wit tha hook, here; get
dem fists up!! These rhymes on tha 1st verse from you’s aight, but
tha joint jamz too hard, to where you can’t help but “love it,” Icona Pop &
Charli XCX style! Whoa @ Mouse kickin’ off tha 2nd verse wit a
kick-ass voice, lol!! Really feelin’ how he comes through; always coolness comin’ outta his mouth!! I must have ta talk ta him
soon; known him fa six years, but neva tried ta talk ta him, yet… I prolly
figured he’s mainstream or whateva… Here comes tha 3rd verse from
you, comin’ through wit some jammin’ shit; more undeniable shit from you,
Level! BTW, what’s challenging in your life? I actually got to meet a girl that
used to call into my favorite radio station from 12, 13 years ago, and I found
her online!! I met her yesterday; real cool, right?! Tha first time I got ta
hang out with a girl, aside from school! My Rating: 4.8
½time: Definitely anotha catchy-ass
party CD—NOT “mixtape!!!” 4.3 for
tha CD rating, currently; can’t deny it!!! Keep tha bangaz comin’ along, but
remember: Your music should always be
in my handz!!!
11.
DJ Supa Mike Speaks
No
thanks… >>> Sounds like I’m jealous, here. Mike needs “gas”? Surprised how you two have
agreeing initiatives. Why do DJs not believe in me? DJs are my least-successful
people to deal with; thought we was ‘pose ta be in this together?? My
Rating: N/A
12.
“Keep Shakin’” Feat. Kango Slim, Dorrough & Lucci
>>>
Anotha Q-Red beat, here… Almost sounds familiar; can’t deny this
hook, either. I thought this was gon be more on a bounce tip, but tha party’s
always poppin’! Good job wit tha 1st verse, here, Level; keep shit
poppin’! Dorrough’s on tha 2nd verse… Kinda random ta have that
one-hit-wonder on this song, but he sounds good… Also, have to mention: This
beat sounds like a longer version of DJ B-Real & Zeus’ “It’s Nothin’” beat
that they produced (like, tha style’s a lil’ faster, but that breakdown toward
bars 13 - 16 on tha verses)… Anyway, it’s good dat peeps reflect on that song ‘cause
that’s one of my favorites from this year! Tha 3rd verse, here, iz Lucci
(I think?), and it sounds good; nice hook, too! You guys got err-body’s ears
in-tune wit dis! My Rating: 4.3
13.
“Gimme One Mo”
>>>
Ooh, Savage producin’ somethin’, here; old? That was my first
impression when hearin’ this, but I don’t think I heard this wit tha Boosie
sample on tha hook, here; interestin’… Glad you & Savage are still cool wit
each other, I guess? Feelin’ your drug-related shit you spittin’ on tha 1st
verse! I can understand why you luv a
“high” now, Level: A dream comin’ ta life in reality!! Feelin’ how you “comin’”
outta err-thang on tha 2nd verse, here; if only I could party wit
you one day, Level… Not sure if that’ll eva happen, but…, no East Coast
visiting, Level? Great 2nd verse, but wit all those drugs inside of
you, what do you think your life expectancy iz? Me not bein’ a druggie, I still
feel like a kid fa 25… Anyway, comin’ through nicely on tha 3rd verse;
sounds like you’re very against challenges; why? They can be fun, Level!! My Rating: 4.5
14.
“Dumbo” Feat. Young Ready
>>>
Of course, wit a collaboration like this, Q-Red has ta be on tha beat! Almost sounds
like “Dumdo” on tha hook, but you sayin’, “Dumb, though,” on tha hook;
definitely catchy, here! Almost thought tha title was “Gumbo” when I saw
tha title! Pretty aggressive wit tha rhymes, here! Speakin’ of “makin’ bread,”
how come I ain’t see anything from you, yet? I could hook you up wit videoz and
a lotta great shit, and it don’t cost a lot, Level! No stacks needed here,
unless it’s a documentary/movie-like video! Also, today’s six years ago dat I
found dat $200 winning scratch-off; talk about how I get my $$$, Level, and it
fell on your 20th birthday!! I got a scratch-off bag yesterday,
cleaned it out today, and I found a $2 winner, so your b-day luck hasn’t worn
off, Level! Hope you like dat, despite tha money bein’ in my pockets!! Young Ready comin’ through on tha 2nd verse
wit some aggressive shit, too; really feelin’ how y’all just deliver it—deliver it!!! Got you on tha 3rd verse, too, and you
keepin’ dat “O”-rhymin’ words comin’ along!! My Rating: 4.6
15.
“R.I.P.”
>>>
Interesting beginning, here… Catchy rhymes comin’ outta yo mouth,
here, on tha 1st verse! I thought this was gon be a sad song about
people who died, but it sounds like you’re doin’ tha killin’ wit tha rhymes? Or
wait, you “just murdered tha beat,” so I guess there’s random death comin’
outta this, here. Now, your “R.I.P.”s are soundin’ like tha Jeezy song, a lil’…
Really likin’ tha Bible quotes before
tha verses; very anticipatin’ song, here! Comin’ through wit tha 2nd
verse, here; thumbs up fa tha “purple,” Level! Gotta have it by ya side!!
Speakin’ of, tha girl I was with yesterday, I showed her my upcoming video
countdown’s songs (My Top 100 Songs While Interning), and she was like, “‘Hit
Dat’” (your song)? “Hit what,” lol? BTW, I like how tha front cover looks; your
tattoos make you look like a real cool dude. It’s always cool ta hang wit peeps
wit tattoos, right? My Rating: 4.5
16.
“Totally Attractive” Feat. Malachi
>>>
Got mo heat comin’ from Q-Red on tha beat, here… I like tha title,
here, so let’s see what y’all can bring… I’m feelin’ how Malachi sounds on tha
hook, but I dunno about tha “got a lotta money” shit; why don’t I see any of “it,”
quote-unquote? Weird how I liked tha vocals betta than tha lyrics fa a singer!!
That’s different! Got you on tha 1st verse, here, and it’s soundin’
nice, Level; what more can somebody say?? Mo shit comin’ from you on tha 2nd
verse, here; entertainment at its finest, Level! E-N-T-E-R-T-A-I-N-M-E-N-T!!
Teamwork on tha 3rd verse, here, by dividin’ tha verse into fourths!
Feelin’ how tha both of y’all comin’ through! Well, 12 bars, it sounded like?
Then, it was divided into thirds, I think? My Rating: 4.6
17.
DJ Chill Speaks
>>>
A Blu Boy Entertainment check-in, here… Not sure why I neva got ta
chop it up wit Chill, yet, but glad he grindin’; good check-in! My Rating:
N/A
18.
“Like Yeah” Feat. Max Minelli
>>>
I see how your intro was “I got cars; I got money; I got hoes.”
That may be good fa you, but as far
business, it must suck, right? I know somebody like dat that I tried to promote
their ass off, but I ain’t make nothin’ off them; gotta lose tha money
virginity, people!!! Anyway, good hook, as it sounds catchy. However, tha beginning
of tha 1st verse’s kinda a turn-off wit all this “money” shit… It
starts ta pick up a lil’ bit wit how you’re switchin’ it up wit tha lyrics, a
lil’ bit, but just a lil’ bit… Mr. Minelli on tha 2nd verse, here;
good shit, Max! Strictly from tha "walls” as “Spiderman,” tha only way a
Minelli like Max can do it, lol! Mo shit comin’ from you on tha 3rd verse,
here, Level… Ehh, too obsessed wit “money;” when will it become faggy ta talk
about—actually, it iz, in my opinion!! My bad-azz
opinion!! Just like tha girl I met yesterday: Our opinions are so INFLICTING,
NERVE-STRIKING & FROM THA HEART!!! My Rating: 4.2
19.
“2 Faced” Feat. Box & Dat Boy A
>>>
Anotha Q-Red beat, wit some soul music bein’ sampled… Well, almost
familiar, as it’s tha “Backstabbers” original hook, on tha hook, here (almost
thought it was Angie Stone “Wish I Didn’t Miss You”, but she sampled that song,
too, 11 years ago)! Thought I heard this from somewhere, but how Q-Red chopped
it up on tha hook, it sounds like a new track… Box’s on tha 1st verse
(finally, a correct order on tha features), and it sounds nice ta hear; good
consistency from tha continuous, Kontinuous Entertainment dude! Got you on tha
2nd verse, Level, soundin’ good wit how you comin’ through on this
beat. Got a blast from tha past on tha 3rd verse, here: Dat Boy A.
Oh, gotta remember tha dayz when he used ta blow my phone up in 2010. Wish he
was still serious about gettin’ at me ‘cause I could’ve made some bread, and he
could’ve had a ton of video work/promotion done from me! Then again, I’m an
afterthought in this music biz, and must
get outta it ASAP!! I’m tryin’, but escapin’ doesn’t happen overnight! Just
know that my transcending gon come soon! Either way, a good verse; can’t deny
this song! My Rating: 4.3
20.
“Fuck You” Feat. J-Spitta
>>>
Nice start from Spitta, here; wish all these dudes were serious
about gettin’ at me, but what’s ‘cool’ iz quantity-over-quality shit, where
everyone wants to be in tha studio “25/8” (like I told tha girl I saw
yesterday), and not focus on promoting/letting my creativeness come out! Great,
consistent rhymes, Spit; don’t be a stranger—wait, don’t be a continuing
stranger! I think tha whole underground iz tired of me; don’t worry, I’ll be
gone soon, and dedicate myself to other people… Anyway, got you on tha 2nd
verse, Level, comin’ through wit some gangsta shit. Tha hook’s pretty catchy
wit this hook; nothin’ like stickin’ tha middle finga up! That’s what I feel
like right now ‘til I transcend into tha video world, fully! My Rating: 4.5
21.
“Respect Me”
Tha beginning beat sounds sound like a Q-Red
beat; anticipated! BTW, “Mayham Ent.;” who are they and how’d you hook up wit
them? Will they take me serious? I remember, in 2010, when Easy Hustle tried ta
take me serious. Then again, they fell off, right Level? I guess? I keep hearin’
crickets fa no reason! But, good job wit how you’re deliverin’ your rhymes on
tha 1st verse! Keep makin’ people “mad!” I don’t apply myself to
anyone, so like Lana Del Rey—who shares tha same birthday as me—“I’ve got that
summertime, summertime sadness!” Speakin’ of “tha news (Channel 9)” wit what you’re
spittin’ on tha 2nd verse, what would it be like if I worked fa tha
Baton Rouge news station? You know,
tha news station I interned at last year was what made my 2012 great! If nothin’
pops off, I’ll still try to keep my
tribute video stories up… Good job wit tha 2nd verse, keepin’ it “hood”
like you say, here. Shout out ta Dassie, too! My Rating: 4.3
Overall: Wow,
anotha nice CD from you, Level! Too bad you neva sent me this CD in tha mail,
and I waited ‘til now ta review it! It’s now seven months old; not sure if I
want old music on my current playlist! It sucks dat I have ta deal wit this
‘cause I luv promotin’ people, but
there’s nothin’ in my mailbox! I hope this iz a lesson learned or somethin’
‘cause to tell you tha truth, I tweet peeps my playlist, and peeps like
D’Manti, who’s ON THA BILLBOARD CHART, as well as a bunch
others, show BUKU LUV to my
playlists, and say they LUV my
playlist: https://twitter.com/DmantiMusic/status/369552269877862400
I guess all’s she’s hearin’ from Louisiana iz
Savage, DJ B-Real, J Buc, Big Wayne, B-Teze, Bubba, Max Minelli, Percy Keith
(surprisingly), KarlWayne & Jiggaman; what happened to everyone? Then again, no matter
tha ratings, there’s neva room fa
disappointment, it seems like! I also believe dat this iz tha 1st review
I eva typed on my MacBook, and I’ve had my MacBook for 4 years, 1 month, 2
weeks & 4 dayz (July 10, 2009)! That’s ‘cause my Windows laptop’s busy
rippin’ shit, and I ain’t wanna interrupt it… But, honestly, I hope I hear from
you, eventually, before I disappear! Hope your b-day went well; you partyin’
wit Jiggaman or somethin’ tonight?
