Review #1,047: Big Co "911 (The Mixtape)"

Reviewed on 8.07.2011 (Review #1,047)




My 4th review today iz Big Co, outta Saint Rose, Louisiana (new place for me), “911 (The Mixtape)”; hope it’s worth my time! Start Time: 8:22 PM | End Time: 9:22 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. “Intro (Gimme Mine)”
First up… >>> Yes, “do this for these fake-ass muthafuckin’ DJs!” How can DJs charge thousands/hundreds ta get a song on tha radio? WTF? Where they get a price like dat from? Talk about homo! Guess this’ll be worth my time ‘cause it sounds pretty nice wit tha production and tha shit you be spittin’; glad you’re an official rapper (hate tha word “real”—sounds homo/played out—so I use “official”)! Tha hook sounds catchy wit tha lil’ kids; not many lil’ kid-soundin’ hooks come these dayz so you did a nice job havin’ it on tha hook! Tha 2nd verse pretty nice, too! However, when it comes ta expressin’ fake people, you can make songs/things about them, but keep it in a safe place ‘cause I feel dat most people who get murdered are resulted from beefs/dramas. Feelin’ tha 3rd verse wit how people “fuck up” shit; fuck this 2010s generation of mainstream music! My Rating: 4.4


02. “Champion”
Let’s hear dis one. >>> I like tha intro; sounds like a boxing match ‘bout ta come! WTF iz this hook? Talk about a turn off, since I’m not inta dick-on-dick suckin’! I wish those that use A-Tune on their hooks are virgins ‘cause they don’t deserve ta have things! However, at least your rappin’ iz normal; good 1st verse… Damn, why iz tha hook so long, too? What happened ta only eight-bar hooks? Tha 2nd verse iz pretty nice, too… My Rating: 3.1


03. “Robberman”
Some normal music? >>> Beat sounds good, here; I like this catchy hook from you and this “robberman” status! Interestin’ 1st verse wit sellin’ “jiggs”? Sounds like a song dat actually takes place in tha streets; nice shit, here! Tight-ass start to tha 2nd verse wit tha “run in yo house” shit; really inta this shit, right now!! Tha 3rd verse iz nice wit tha G-shit; good job, overall! My Rating: 4.6


04. “Entertainer”
What’s this? >>> Not really good ta start wit a female voice dat sounds like a Willow Smith/young person’s song… Plus, tha production’s pretty much on dat weak, mainstream level fa me… LOL, how did drug-related shit mix in wit this song? Funny fa tha 1st verse… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it sounds like it has a betta set of shit goin’ on than tha 1st verse; catchy, consistent shit, here! I like how you decided ta “talk” on tha outro… Well, it was short; rather’ve heard you talk for that whole minute than have tha hook repeat… My Rating: 3.6


05. “I’m Gucci”
Hope it ain’t on some bullshit… >>> Hook sounds good; this iz a lil’ catchy… Boo @ tha gay start to tha 1st verse; stupid line should be considered a fad (“turn my swag on” shit)! Not much ta comment on wit tha 1st verse, though; it ain’t that bad… Tha 2nd verse sounds consistent wit tha rhymes; at least it’s a lil’ betta… My Rating: 3.7


06. “Bingo (Freestyle)”
>>> Not bad wit tha beat choice… Tha rhymes are good and consistent, here. Not really likin’ that there’s a random hook… My Rating: 3.4


07. “Get Ya Mind Right”
>>> Catchy lil’ hook; sounds like an anthem, here. “Sick as a stiff dick;” how random, lol! LOL, funny how it goes wit this street shit… I like tha “shiiid” ad-lib ‘round 1:59 when you said, “pussy;” sounds like you got shit on lock, here, fa tha 2nd verse, too! You keepin’ shit goin’ wit this 3rd verse, too; thumbs up! My Rating: 4.1


08. “Dope Or Dogfood”
LOL, this looks like an interestin’ title! >>> Yea, this shit sounds pretty nice; I like tha topic and how you handlin’ this “Dope Or Dogfood” hook, lol! Tha rhymes in tha 1st verse iz pretty nice, too! You got shit goin’ on in tha 2nd verse, too; luvin’ these consistent rhymes wit an interestin’ topic dat just continues! Damn, there’s a 3rd verse, too; thumbs up fa dis and mo “food,” lol! My Rating: 4.7


½time: Pretty-good CD, so far; a 4.0 CD rating, currently!


09. “Dreams”
>>> Sounds like somethin’ dat would piss me off, smh. Beat’s not bad and tha rhymes are not bad, either… My Rating: 3.3


10. “Wazzam”
>>> Sounds familiar but it ain’t; good shit, here… “I’m gone off dat weed, pillz, and liquor;” you remember date and time you first were on all these? You gotta remember dat shit! Funny how you’d “kill” someone ‘cause dat shit’s in you? Sounds weird… My Rating: 4.1


11. “To The Beat”
>>> Not inta a hook like dis; sounds like a female Lloyd? Rhymes are aight/not that much for me. My Rating: 2.8


12. “Ya Like”
>>> Sounds like a good anthem. I can just imagine what got you inta poppin’ “pillz”? This iz an interestin’ song wit all tha “ya like” shit; nice lil’ anthem, here! Good job wit keepin’ tha consistency up on this tight beat, too! This sounds like a song dat my boy Savage would make (similar flow to his “Shit Yeah” song)! My Rating: 4.3


13. “Die”
>>> Decent; good hook wit tha “die” shit and how you don’t play. Nice job wit tha rhymes ova this beat; you doin’ ya thang! My Rating: 3.9


14. “Neva Been A Bitch”
>>> Nice beat intro; it’s 51 seconds long! Good rhymes you got goin’ on, here! Thumbs up fa keepin’ shit on lock fa those dat are grindin’ hard in tha streetz! My Rating: 4.0


15. “Kill It”
>>> Logan beat. Sounds like somethin’ serious goin’ on wit tha production, here; good rhymes, too! You got this G-shit on lock! I heard “finish him” on tha background; iz this a follow-up to Mouse & Lil’ Cali’s song “Mortal Kombat” (wit Wissel & Doe-Doe)? I guess so ‘cause tha ending was a “fatality;” good shit wit this consistency! My Rating: 4.1


16. “Outro (Letter 2 You)”
>>> Damn, why you gotta suck dick again? Two times iz bad! “Shit don’t feel tha same without Mr. Wipe Me Down;” what’s up wit tha error? Foxx iz around (FYI: Lil’ Boosie ain’t “Mr. Wipe Me Down”)… Tha rest of this shit ain’t for me, either. Damn, WTF wit tha hook lasting a whole minute at tha end? My Rating: 1.3


Overall: Other than a few songs, this was pretty good. Seems like you’re a good rapper wit a few really catchy songs…


Rankings:

16. “Outro (Letter 2 You)” 1.3
15. “To The Beat” 2.8

Review #3 fa today iz Da U Boys & The Show, an East Gang Music Group, Inc. and Rue Rois collaboration, wit “Eastside Uptown”! Start Time: 11:12 AM | End Time: 11:35 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!

Source (Where I Got Tha CD From): http://www.datpiff.com/Da-U-Boys-The-Show-Eastside-Uptown-mixtape.190412.html

01. Intro (Geeby Whop The Wire)

What’s this? >>> LOL @ tha intro and everyone talkin’; people are funny, ta me, fa easily bein’ able ta talk so much at one time. I was wonderin’, 25 seconds of silence? Then, it came back at :15 left. Then, it stopped outta nowhere, lol? My Rating: N/A

02. “Eastside Uptown”

>>> I’m likin’ how dis sounds fa a beginning; good collaboration for a mixtape collab! Tha hook sounds real nice between tha both of y’all wit tha “East Gang; Uptown” shit! Thumbs up fa Da U doin’ tha damn thang in tha beginning and fa Show fa takin’ ova tha 2^nd ½ of tha song. My Rating: 4.3

03. “Check My Resume”

A longer song; how will y’all do? >>> Tha hook sounds catchy wit tha mysterious voice singin’ on tha hook; good song… Good rappin’, too, from Da U Boys; let’s see what Show has ta offer… He sounds a lil’ betta fa me. Dat beat tag dat’s repeatin’ sounds almost like Stevie Drumma’s, but it ain’t him. Thumbs up fa Show and his consistent rhymes! My Rating: 4.0

04. “I’m Ill” Feat. Strait Jigg

>>> Sounds familiar but then again, dat title’s, basically, tha Lil’ Wayne sample, which I hear/see a lot. Good thing it starts off wit Show; Show gives me a lil’ more anticipation, off top. Really feelin’ his consistent, kick-ass rhymes! For some reason, afta him, it’s soundin’ a lil’ boring fa me; I guess it’s dis beat? Prolly could’ve been a lil’ betta. Tha hook ain’t just tha Lil’ Wayne sample; sounds like some East Coast mixin’ in tha hook, too. Ooh, tha 2^nd verse has a much betta sound than tha 2^nd ½ of tha 1^st verse; good rhymes/voice fa dis street shit. Tha 3^rd verse sounds good wit tha “gangsta” shit when it comes ta how people try ta act like ‘em. Speakin’ of which, someone I talked to said, “I’m a gangsta; I’m outside all tha time,” and I was like, “WTF?” Like, c’mon. My Rating: 4.2

05. “N.O. Anthem” Feat. Strait Jigg

>>> Tha intro sounds like I gon look forward ta hear dis! Afta 31 seconds, tha hook slammed onto tha track, kickin’ major ass!!!!! This should sound tight on my radio show; crazy-ass “ward” representations in tha hook!! Tha rhymes in tha 1^st verse are soundin’ pretty catchy; tha 2^nd ½ of tha 1^st verse are soundin’ 504ish, doin’ tha damn thang, here! Tha 2^nd verse sounds good wit tha rhymes, too. Ooh, here comes Show on tha 2^nd ½ of tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit consistent rhymes and consistent street shit; thumbs up fa tha deliverin’!! My Rating: 4.7

½time: A 4.3-rated CD, thanx ta dat “N.O. Anthem”!! Keep up tha great work, guys!!

06. Interlude

>>> Good thing fa an “interlude”; y’all sound good wit tha talkin’. LOL, Show sounded like he blended in wit err-one’s voices; didn’t recognize him, at first, for a few seconds, lol. My Rating: N/A

07. “I Ain’t Shit” (The Show)

A solo from Show? Let’s hear dis! >>> Sounds familiar? Can’t find it in my iTunes but this sounds hot wit tha beat and tha consistent rhymes; a betta-soundin’ song fa a solo song from Show. My Rating: 4.3

08. “Warm It Up”

>>> Beat’s jacked? Didn’t expect dat; sounds like we’re in tha ‘80s/’90s, here. Anyway, tha rhymes sound good and consistent. Thumbs up ta tha good rappin’, U Boys! Show comin’ through wit even betta shit, as always! Tha fastness in tha beat helps; gotta luv all these rhymes!! My Rating: 4.2

09. “Wood Grain”

Looks like it gon be a jacked song? Let’s see… >>> Actually, no, lol, Logan On Tha Beat on tha beat, here. Tha hook’s cool wit tha Southern sample; you know what it iz wit dis… Good vibes from Da U Boys in tha beginning of tha rappin’, here; feelin’ tha “rollin’ down tha windows” part, although I’m jealous. It snowed a few inches, here, in Northeast PA, but was not-bad out, yesterday. :( Let’s see what Show has ta offer, here… Yea, thumbs down ta dat “oil spill.” :td Pretty consistent, although tha previous songs from Show were betta, surprisingly, and this iz more my style, lol. Thumbs up ta tha rest of dis, too, keepin’ tha vibe goin’. My Rating: 4.1

10. “Pick It Back Up” (Da U Boys)

Solo song from Da U Boys? Hope it’s catchy without Show… >>> I like dis; nice production, too. LOL, iz dis CD gonna be worth five stars from me, since all tha songs have 4.0+ ratings? Dat would be pretty shocking for an N.O. CD! Again, just like tha final verse of tha last song, this has good rhymes fa tha ladies, keepin’ tha vibe up. Tha 2^nd verse keeps tha 1^st verse’s content goin’, only wit a catchier, Juvie style! Tha 3^rd verse iz good, too, wit tha way tha beat stays consistent. My Rating: 4.2

11. “Human Nature”

>>> Damn, kinda a fuck-up for tha ending wit this MJ-type shit. At least Show’s doin’ a nice job on tha 1^st verse wit tha consistency, but I won’t let MJ let somethin’ have five stars from me, sorry. Damn, even tha sample’s in tha hook, too? I should just forget about dis and pretend it’s not here. Da U Boys are only aight fa me, though; a lil’ more mainstream? My Rating: 2.6

Overall: Real nice job, even though #11 got ta me. Still, prolly one of tha more-consistent, betta-soundin’ New Orleans CDs I’ve heard in tha longest time!

Rankings:

09.       “Human Nature” 2.6

08.       “Check My Resume” 4.0

07.       “Wood Grain” 4.1

06.       “Warm It Up” 4.2

01. “Str8 Lyke Dat” w/Lil’ Doom

Source (Where I Got Tha CD From): http://www.datpiff.com/Carterboy_Carter_World.m161502.html

01. “U Ain’t On That”

Likin’ tha attitude fa tha 1^st song! >>> Sounds catchy; surprised you did a solo CD. You really representin’ fa yourself now, huh, Carter Boy? Good job wit tha 1^st verse, ya dig? “Get ya rulers out; got tha long cake.” :tu I like your attitude in tha 2^nd verse, too; doin’ ya thang on this beat you chose. My Rating: 4.2

02. “Bow” Feat. Lil’ Cali & Chosen

Most definitely, MVP/Gremlins style!! >>> LOL, y’all chose Logan fa dis beat. LOL again, you got Big Jay on tha intro ta dis. Sounds jammin’… Somethin’ simple on tha hook—almost sounds familiar, too. If someone previously had a song like dis, I know y’all doin’ a betta job! Lil’ Cali sounds pretty good on tha 1^st verse, doin’ tha damn thang to tha fullest! Damn, Cali on tha 2^nd verse? I really think I heard dis somewhere but it ain’t poppin’ up in my iTunes. Hope I don’t misthink tha rating! Tha 3^rd verse’s soundin’ pretty nice; consistent shit to tha fullest! My Current Rating: 4.4

EDIT: Yea, it was “Magnum Musik” dat I heard dis on. Glad I rated it more now.

03. “Ballin’” Feat. Lil’ Cali

LOL. >>> Sounds good. Sometimes, it’s tha simple hooks that catch on pretty good. You doin’ a nice job on tha 1^st verse, keepin’ shit consistent! ROFL, they left out Lil’ Cali on tha feature? Why? LOL, pretty good shit he comin’ through wit! My Rating: 4.1

04. “Today Is Like Tomorrow” Feat. Chosen

Boo @ tha incorrect spellin’ of “tomorrow” spelled “tommorow”. Anyway, looks good on tha ID! >>> Tha start sounds pretty nice; feelin’ this! It’s Logan doin’ tha beat here, soundin’ pretty good throughout tha hook! That title helps and it really sounds like a jam on tha hook; feelin’ dis to tha fullest! Definitely feelin’ tha 1^st verse; true shit, spittin’ consistently! Chosen sounds pretty good on tha 2^nd verse, doin’ his thang wit tha good, everyday-livin’-type lyrics/content! My Rating: 4.6

05. “Tell ‘Em I Said That” Feat. Lil’ Cali

Again, looks like it gon be a catchy song! >>> Sounds like you chose a good beat and it sounds good on tha hook; nice attitude once again! Pretty hyped up—LOL, ANOTHA not-sourced Lil’ Cali track! :rofl He’s on tha 1^st verse, doin’ tha damn thang wit his consistency! How can someone that represents real hard not get sourced? Here you are on tha 3^rd verse, comin’ through wit tha tight, consistent rhymes; not about any “bullshit,” ya dig? My Rating: 4.3

06. “On To The Next” Feat. Lil’ Cali

Exactly. >>> ROFL… Sounds like your voice iz a lil’ hard ta hear, I guess ‘cause tha beat’s pretty loud on tha surround. You’re doin’ a pretty good job here… LOL, Lil’ Cali’s randomly on tha 2^nd verse once again! Gotta source him in tha ID and he doin’ a betta job here wit tha consistent punchlines! Iz dat 1:16ish of silence at tha end, smh? My Rating: 3.8

07. Lil’ Buddy Speaks

Let’s hear it! >>> Oh no, not dis dude… I did hear dis dude recently, too. Oh yea, “Magnum Musik”. My Rating: N/A

½time: What a consistent mixtape; definitely enjoyin’ dis shit right now, ya dig? Currently, a 4.2 iz what you got as far as tha CD rating.

08. “Elevated”

Keepin’ it goin’! >>> T-Money tag in tha beginning? Wonder who dat iz… Tha flow sounds like Rick Ross, lol. I like how you got this shit goin’ on in tha 1^st verse! When you added random A-Tune to your vocals, it sounds like your color changed, lol. Tha 2^nd verse sounds a lil’ mainstream but you keepin’ thangz goin’… My Rating: 3.9

09. “Be A G” Feat. Lil’ Cali & Bias

Now, Lil’ Cali’s on tha feature? >>> Oh, “I’m A G” beat… Cali doin’ a nice job on tha 1^st verse, spittin’ tha “G”-type lyrics here. You’re on tha 2^nd verse and you’re “27”? You seem younger… I guess ‘cause I’m used ta dealin’ wit people 23-25ish. Pretty-good verse you got there, C-Boy, lol! Newbie Bias on tha 3^rd verse, soundin’ like he fits good wit you, Carter. Welcome to tha MVP fam… LOL, it cut off pretty fast! My Rating: 4.0

10. “Woodgrain” Feat. Chosen

Let’s hear dis! >>> I’m likin’ tha Southern, Logan-styled beat here; good shit/hook! You’re doin’ a real nice job on tha 1^st verse; definitely catchy wit your character, rhymin’ ya ass off!! Ooh, it sounded like Chosen inhaled a blunt before tha 2^nd verse, lol. Most definitely, he doin’ tha damn thang here! My Rating: 4.2

11. “HD” Feat. Lil’ Cali, Mouse & Doe-Doe

LOL, this didn’t fool me, lol! I know tha title’s a lil’ different but I know this! Who really produced this beat? It sounds like they have “tight, tight, tight” in their beat backgrounds. Anyway, tha beat iz DEFINITELY watz good and tha hook CAN’T BE DENIED!!! DEFINITELY can feel y’all in “HD” here to tha fullest; REAL COOL hook wit tha 2^nd ½ bein’ tha typical Baton Rouge formula of GR8 repetitiveness!!! Tha 1^st ½ of tha 1^st verse was Mouse bein’ a cool cat and tha 2^nd ½ of tha 1^st verse iz Cali spittin’ his cool side. Gotta luv tha “WAHHHHHHH!!!” from ANYONE!!! :tu Tha 2^nd verse here iz from… no source? Oh, it’s really you, Carter Boy; smh @ them not sourcin’ you on tha “Just Because: The Mixtape” CD. It was pretty good fa what it was… What? Anotha mysterious dude on tha 2^nd ½ of tha 2^nd verse? Now, I know that this iz Doe-Doe! Good fa what it was but not as catchy as how Mouse comes through! Either way, props fa mysteriously appearin’ (not sourced on this CD, too), lol! My Current Rating: 4.7

12. “P.M.W.”

LOL @ this title, just randomly appearin’!! >>> Oh, a sappy-soundin’ beat. :( Well, it ain’t too bad. It sounds entertainin’ once you start rappin’. Tha 1^st verse’s pretty good… Tha 2^nd verse’s good although borderline-Wayne style… My Rating: 3.6

13. “On The Grind” Feat. Lil’ Cali, Foxx & Savage

I have ta know dis… Oh yea, gonna credit Savage, too! Beat start iz pretty nice here, on a Southern vibe! Sounds like a Savage product—oh, just caught him on tha hook once again so you know he prolly produced dis HOT SHIT, too!! Nice 1^st verse from Foxx, stayin’ “on [tha] grind”! Cali comin’ through wit tha tightness (and an attitude, too) on tha 2^nd verse; keep it comin’, guys! Uh oh, you’re comin’ through fa tha 3^rd verse! Good shit from him collaboratin’, too! My Current Rating: 4.3

14. “Exhibit C” Feat. Lil’ Cali & Chosen

LOL, tha “C” works pretty good, no less, ‘cause you start wit a “C”, lol. >>> You sound good on this beat… Definitely supportin’ tha people to tha full—LOL, Cali just RANDOMLY appeared on tha 2^nd verse again!! It’s, like, Cali Claus comin’ outta nowhere ta visit, lol! Good shit; always good ta have a partner! Tha 3^rd verse sounds pretty good; feelin’ tha attitude! Oh, it was Chosen; damn, tha voice between him and you are nearly similar. But, smh @ tha no-sourced features; that’s what makes things go wrong! My Rating: 4.0

15. “Over” Feat. Lil’ Cali

Actually-sourced Cali on tha feature, lol? >>> Damn, this beat… Damn, those gay vocals on tha hook, too. Well, they’re not so gay; they do fit fa a hook. I guess we can blame tha original hook on Drake… Cali doin’ a nice job on tha 1^st verse; good, consistent rhymes he spittin’. You’re doin’ a pretty good job on tha 2^nd verse, doin’ a nice job… My Rating: 3.7

Overall: Nice and consistent mixtape from you, ya feel me? Glad you came through on tha mixtape and did tha damn thang! You keep doin’ tha damn thang and keep reppin’ fa MVP Entertainment!

Review #738: Killa Q "Ahead Of My Time (Promo)"

Reviewed on 12.22.2010 (Review #738)




Again, continuin’ ta set anotha record… ****REVIEW #13**** goes to Killa Q “Ahead Of My Time (Promo)”! BTW, tha record’ll be broken by someone else later on tonight; I’m expectin’ ta do a 14th review afta dis!! Start Time: 10:47 PM | End Time: 11:01 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. “We In Da Buildin’” Feat. Keedo
Time ta start thangz off. Ooh, you advanced ta D. Jackson on tha beat? Lemme hear… >>> Wow, this iz MUCH betta than all dat shit I previously reviewed!! You still soundin’ like Foxx wit this flow; REAL crazy shit!!! Now, I see future-radio music, ya dig? DEFINITELY consistent wit D. Jackson on tha beat!! Very consistent; can’t even tell who’s who, lol! My Rating: 4.3


02. “Dreams”
Logan On Da Beat, lol. You expandin’ tha production somehow, which iz a plus!! >>> I dunno why I praised tha anticipation ‘cause this izn’t nothin’ ta brag about.

½time: Two songs in, a 3.9 for tha CD rating so far.


03. “Pretty Smile”
What iz this K.T.-produced track gon sound like? >>> LMAO!! GOTTA LUV THA BOOSIE/ENERGETIC BEAT!!! Dumb shit right chea, ya dig?!? Nice and consistent tha whole way ‘round!! My Rating: 4.4


04. “She Got It” Feat. K.T.
Bleh; this? Not feelin’ tha Pop start to tha 1st verse either; double negative. It sounds like tha hook keeps playin’ too much… A lil’ boring for me but not tha worst. My Current Rating: 2.4


05. “Dumdiculous” Feat. Xclusive Rick
Tha final song and I think it’s new… >>> Yea, sounds different. T. Rhythm did tha beat and it’s soundin’ pretty jammin’ here, ya dig? Whoa, you comin’ through REAL CRAZY on tha 2nd verse!! “Dumdiculous” to tha fullest!!! My Rating: 4.4

Source (Where I Got Tha CD From): http://www.datpiff.com/Foxx_Lil_Cali_Magnum_Musik.m148050.html


01. Magnum Musik (Intro)
Let’s get it! >>> DJ Scrap reppin’ in tha intro; sounds anticipatin’! My Rating: N/A


02. “I’m 2 Threw”
What kinda title iz dis? >>> What was that in tha beginning? Not anotha beat tag, lol? Interestin’ title here and tha hook’s tight! I think “threw” iz right ‘cause if you’re “thrown” off, “threw”’ll be tha right word. Good job, guys! Foxx, you were crazy on tha 1st verse wit tha spellin’ and how you’re “fucked up,” lol! Cali, you flow through nice on this, too! No source on who was on tha 3rd verse… My Rating: 4.4


03. “Bow” Feat. Carter Boy
LOL… >>> Tha hook iz kinda typical but has a better sound to it; I like how it was delivered. You doin’ a nice job on tha first two verses; good shit! LOL, no Foxx? What’s up wit these mysterious features? Oh, Carter Boy… Good shit ta hear from him, too! My Rating: 4.3


04. “Polo Down”
LOL again… >>> LOL, Foxx was all “Coogi” previously, lol. Now, it’s all “Polo”? Let’s see what y’all got ta say ‘bout dis! Sounds like an anthem here; good shit, Foxx! This iz like “Wipe Me Down”; I think I might like “Coogi Down” betta. Just Foxx on dis song? Would’ve been betta if it was both Foxx and Cali…; it’s kinda gettin’ too long now… My Rating: 4.2


05. “I’m Coolin’”
Hope it’s tha both of y’all! >>> Anotha unknown beat tag, ROFL… Sounds like a pretty nice joint here; likin’ tha hook! Cali did a nice job on tha 1st verse; really soundin’ cool here, lol! Different dude on tha 2nd verse? My bad dat I can’t tell any of Da Gremlins’s voices or anything but it was pretty good since he’s on tha hook, too. Good, Foxx’s on tha 3rd verse; an “asshole,” lol! My Rating: 4.3


06. “Fuckin’ Right” Feat. Savage
Yup! >>> Ooh, Savage hoppin’ on tha hook, doin’ tha damn thang!! It even sounds like he’s on tha beat, too; definitely tight! Good shit from Cali on tha 1st verse; “fuckin’ right”, lol. Foxx did tha damn thang on tha 2nd verse; comin’ through wit some energy on tha track! Savage even rappin’ on tha 3rd verse; dumb shit!! Really likin’ all tha explicit lyrics goin’ on here; thumbs up! My Rating: 4.4


07. “Ms. Gucci”
Keepin’ it goin’! >>> Still can’t tell who did tha beat; ROFL @ even havin’ beat tags! Where did dat start? Oh no, like tha “Polo Down” song, now, it’s all “Ms.” this, “Ms.” that, lol. Good job on tha hook, Foxx. Cali sounds much betta on tha 1st verse wit what he comin’ through wit. Foxx on tha 2nd verse and there’s catchiness in how he’s rappin’ to tha track; good job here! Damn, it ended kinda quick? My Rating: 4.2


08. “Another Hater”
>>> Tha same producer but a somewhat-slower start on tha beat. Sounds like a catchy concept for a smooth beat. Tha hook’s pretty cool wit Cali on it. My Rating: 4.0


09. Foxx & Quagmire Speak
Let’s hear what y’all gotta say… >>> Okay but what’s wit tha imaginary person? My Rating: N/A


10. “Jigga Train”
Looks like dis gon be pretty anticipatin’… >>> Tha beat intro sounds pretty nice, hot, and anticipatin’!! Tha hook’s pretty energetic; likin’ dis shit! Foxx doin’ a nice job on tha 1st verse, too, comin’ through wit all dis energy!! Foxx even doin’ tha damn thang on tha 2nd verse, too! Shit yea @ this joint; all about tha energy!!! LOL, Foxx on tha 3rd verse, too; I guess it’s just him doin’ tha damn thang on dis, lol. Nice job all tha way ‘round!! My Rating: 4.5


½time: Hot shit right chea from tha both of y’all!! It would’ve been GR8 if y’all put tha featured artists on tha back cover… Regardless, this iz a 4.3-rated CD so far!!


11. “On Everything” Feat. T2
Catchy title… >>> Tha beat start sounds hot once again!! What a catchy hook, lol. Nice job wit tha 1st verse from Cali, doin’ tha damn thang… Nice shit from Foxx, too, on tha 2nd verse; nothin’ but dat consistentness! My Rating: 4.4


12. “Whatever Bitch”
LOL @ this title! >>> Based off tha intro, I thought it was gonna be with a comma. But, just like tha “On Everything” song, it’s an “whatever bitch”, lol. Catchy shit; how come tha content’s clean here? Pretty good 1st verse, Foxx. Because it’s long, I have a feelin’ it just gon be Foxx on dis joint. I guess I was wrong, lol; Cali on tha 2nd verse, doin’ tha damn thang. Foxx on tha 3rd verse, doin’ what he does best fa describin’ dem bitches, lol. My Rating: 4.2


13. “Proud Of Me”
>>> A Wodieson production. I dunno if I gon accept how dis hook sounds, unfortunately. It’s an okay song but nothin’ special at all. My Rating: 2.5


14. “U Fumblin’” Feat. Savage
Looks like an interestin’ title… >>> I like tha Bounce rhythm in tha beginning of tha beat as well as tha Southern sound, too. Yay, Savage on tha hook, doin’ his thang once again!! Savage even rappin’ in tha 1st verse, doin’ tha damn thang fa tha 225! Savage makin’ dis joint a real good one; layin’ it down, smoothly! Foxx spittin’ dat good street shit in tha 2nd verse, keepin’ it consistent. Cali doin’ a nice job on tha 3rd verse; he keepin’ it street, too. My Rating: 4.4


15. Cali & Lil’ Buddy Speak
LOL, what a random person ta get? >>> Oh, this ain’t tha real Lil’ Buddy of tha Donkey Boys; dis a cartoon person again, smh. Interestin’ shit comin’ up! My Rating: N/A


16. “I Be Workin’” Feat. OJ Da Juiceman & DJ B-Real
>>> Good thing for my thumbs up; sounds like a Q-Red beat or somethin’! Almost sounds like Mouse in tha beginning or somethin’ or maybe DJ B-Real? Catchy hook; good job from whoeva dat exactly was! Cali doin’ a nice job on tha 1st verse; always a thumbs up when Cali touches a TIGHT beat! LOL, someone just quickly hopped onto tha 2nd verse outta nowhere, lol! “Young G” iz their name? They said it quickly toward tha end of tha verse, too, lol. They contributed pretty nice, too. A Cali solo since he’s on tha 3rd verse, too, lol. I like tha acapella ending; lol @ tha “chickens”! My Rating: 4.4


17. “Get Low”
>>> Must be a Foxx solo? I just assume… Sounds like dis gon be a jam or somethin’ based off tha fast beat intro. Oh, Foxx said Lil’ Cali’s on dis so it a collab. Tha hook’s really catchy; definitely likin’ dis! Tha energetic Foxx’s doin’ tha damn thang on tha 1st verse; glad ta hear some mo hot shit once again!! Here comes Cali on tha 2nd verse, spittin’ some catchy shit! Comin’ back ta Foxx on tha 3rd verse, keepin’ it goin’! My Rating: 4.3


18. “On My Grind” Feat. Carter Boy & Savage
DEFINITELY!! >>> Beat start iz pretty nice here, on a Southern vibe! Sounds like a Savage product—oh, just caught him on tha hook once again so you know he prolly produced dis HOT SHIT, too!! Nice 1st verse from Foxx, stayin’ “on [tha] grind”! Cali comin’ through wit tha tightness (and an attitude, too) on tha 2nd verse; keep it comin’, guys! Uh oh, Carter Boy comin’ through fa tha 3rd verse! Good shit from him collaboratin’, too! My Rating: 4.3


19. “Dreaming…”
Looks like an ending song; let’s hear it. >>> Anotha beat tag for tha start… Kinda soft here; let’s see how tha song will progress. This iz a Cali-type joint I’d expect ta hear on an album but I dunno about a mixtape/collab CD… Not too bad of a song; tha rhymes are here and tha catchiness (for a slow song)’s here, too. Foxx’s on tha 2nd verse, doin’ a pretty good contribution here with Cali… My Rating: 3.6


20. “Money Right” Feat. Level & Tank Jones
It says “Money Right” iz a bonus song. Then, what’s that “Goldmouth Dogg” song? Anyway, funny/REAL GLAD dis made it!!! Classic shit wit Level “doooooooooooooooooin’” his thang, lol!!! This sounds a lil’ remastered or somethin’ (accordin’ to Cali’s “PO UP!” part). Oh yea, forgot there were a coupla different versions. I wonder which version dis iz… Shit no, this version wit Cali on tha 2nd verse… Level’s verse (which iz tha 3rd on this one) doesn’t sound dat exciting… Wish it was tha version I heard on “Enemy Of The State”; not likin’ tha lazy sound/cut-off verse. And yea, tha cut-off verse from Tank Jones, too. My Current Rating: 4.5


21. “Goldmouth Dogg”
I googled this and it came up as goin’ wit tha “Money Right” title, but I don’t think it does. I couldn’t find it anywhere so I can’t judge dis one… My Rating: N/A


Overall: Y’all did a NICE job here!! Good job on tha collaboration CD!! Keep tha HOT music comin’!! Also, shout out to tha featured artists I couldn’t identify…
