Review #1,251: X-Fyle Presents "Neighborhood Track Dealer Vol. 1"

Reviewed on 1.31.2013 (Review #1,251)

My next review for today iz X-Fyle Presents Neighborhood Track Dealer Vol. 1! Start Time: 9:52 PM | End Time: 10:15 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. Kevin Gates “Sinatra”
My Current Rating: 3.6

02. X-Fyle Feat. Master P, Romeo & The Louie V Mobb “Smoke, Drank & Cut”
You know he just “Romeo” now, right, Mr. X-Fyle? >>> Sounds good wit tha title, but no way am I into tha hook!! Can’t even tell anyone’s voices; not for me, despite me likin’ tha title! My Rating: 1.4

03. X-Fyle Feat. Coppertop “Hell Of A Night”
>>> What’s this gay beginning? Aren’t I listenin’ to rappers, not singers? Not really for me; tha 2^nd verse iz barely okay… My Rating: 1.2

04. Birdman “Nightclub”

Not in tha DatPiff folder… >>> Why this mainstream shit fa this compilation? I understand you produced it, but keep it undaground! Now, that’s “100!” Oh yea, no a-tune for me! My Rating: 1.0

05. Birdman Feat. Mack Maine & Drake “You Too Fine”

Why? >>> Really long intro wit tha hook, although it’s tha catchiest hook outta tha five songs, so far. Not too bad, but I don’t need to hear this pop shit on an undaground producer’s mixtape! My Rating: 3.2

06. X-Fyle Feat. Down Bad “MollyWhopped”
Forgot how it went… >>> Once again, cool beat; a great song to get fucked up to… My Current Rating: 4.3

07. X-Fyle Feat. Mookie Blakk “We Be Dummy”

That’s two “K”s in his name! BTW, I think this iz an ’09 joint Mookie sent me that was just called “Dummy”, at tha time? Lemme see… >>> This doesn’t sound like it, despite me neva gettin’ ta hear dat joint except tha beginning beat… Then again, that was just Mookie, not X-Fyle featuring Mookie… This sounds like a cool, “dummy”-type joint, as always; can’t complain… Mookie sounds cool when it comes to tha rappin’; good job. Hearin’ tha 3^rd verse; must be you. You’re, like, voiceless to me; I can neva tell when it’s you on a song unless there’s a distinct voice from tha other artist… Either way, your verse’s a lil’ too mainstream for me! It bothers me to hear anything about “money!” My Rating: 3.7

08. Gyft “People See Me (They Just Don’t Know)”

First new artist on here… >>> Really? 6:25 on tha length wit a beat start like this… Okay, tha sample’s teasin’ me to like this a lil’ bit. Reminds me of anotha beat you produced. I won’t get into that, unless we talk privately ‘cause I don’t wanna put tha thief’s name out there! But, surprisingly, I’m likin’ this a lil’ bit; this rapper iz aight, but it sounds like a good joint, overall. Really long outro, here… My Rating: 4.0

09. X-Fyle Feat. Mouse “Eddie Kane”
>>> Sounds good; automatically, this tha type of shit you can’t deny! Must be you rappin’, here; it sounds good, despite some of tha mainstream-type shit you be sayin’… Tha hook’s pretty catchy; can’t help it when it comes ta a name bein’ tha title! Mouse On Tha Track on tha 3^rd verse, comin’ through wit his entertainin’-ass! My Rating: 3.8

½time: A few songs that were really shitty, but there’s some good/decent shit on here; only a 2.9 for tha CD rating, currently. X-Fyle, it’s time ta cut on tha wack, mainstream shit!

10. Birdman “Money Machine”

Also, not in tha DatPiff folder… >>> No wonder! My Rating: 1.0

11. Mookie Blakk Feat. Sam I Am “Dat Level”

If only I would’ve gotten this CD when it came out. Then, when I uploaded tha radio edit, I could’ve put which CD it came off of. Y’all need to not delay these CDs; c’mon, now! My Current Rating: 4.3

12. X-Fyle “Life & Times”

>>> A calm beat wit some good rhymes. Somethin’ about your samples seem to catch attention. I usually hate ‘em, but this anotha one I’m feelin’. Not bad ta listen ta this; I think this iz tha “times” of tha 1984 babies! It seems like err-body from ’84’s real cool ta deal wit, or I keep dealin’ wit ’84 babies! Dumb shit! My Rating: 3.5

13. Lil’ Boosie & B.G. “Gamez”
>>> Nice beat this time, X! Good lil’ hook wit Boosie talkin’ about people takin’ him as if he was some sorta technology! Hearin’ Gizzle on tha 1^st verse, and why iz he so quiet, it sounds like? It’s okay, but too quiet… Boosie’s on tha 2^nd verse and he’s quiet, too; increase da vocals, X! But, I’m likin’ all these “gamez” references, such as “Pac-Man!” Tha rest of this iz good…, but quiet! My Rating: 4.4

14. X-Fyle “Flyboyz”
>>> Real nice sounds in tha beginning!! I hope this turns out ta be somethin’ real good… Good job wit tha hook, here; soundin’ nice and “fly!” Tha 1^st verse sounds pretty good; why this gotta be 4:31? I like tha long lengths when there’s usually a feature or two… Almost sounds like Max Minelli on tha 2^nd verse, but it’s all you? I like tha “kush” line… Despite tha long length, there’s a long beat outro; yea, let dat beat ride out!! My Rating: 4.4

15. X-Fyle Feat. Mouse & Box “Spread My Wings”
LOL! My Current Rating: 4.4

16. X-Fyle Feat. Tank Jones “Let Yourself Go”

>>> No a-tune for me! I’m too old fa dat! I’m 24, X-Fyle!! 20-muthafuckin’-4!! I think I was too old for it when I was 20, 21, too! You were 20, 21 when “Y’all Heard Of Me” started blowin’ up…; no a-tune then! Think, X-Fyle, think! My Rating: 1.0

17. Tre Virdure “Covergirl”
>>> Little would I know that an R&B song would beat a bunch of songs on here. Either way, beat sounds nice for an R&B song, and Tre sounds good, mixin’ it up wit some rap-type topics wit tha “car.” Also, interestin’ vocals durin’ tha verses… My Rating: 3.3

18. X-Fyle Feat. Lil’ Boosie, B.G. & Louisiana Ca$h “Bottom Of The Boot”

>>> Nice beat; great super Louisiana collaboration, here… My Rating: 4.2

Overall: Before I comment, I have ta say, thank God you don’t have tha BR rapper that robbed me outta a ½ stack on here! You produced fa him, and you were smart enough ta not put him on here! That’s a good look, X-Fyle; glad you’re so smart! Anyway, not tha best compilation, but I’ll give you credit for puttin’ some good songs on here.

Review #1,207: Bic Jack "I'on Play 2.5 (The Mixtape)"

Reviewed on 9.30.2012 (Review #1,207)

Comin’ up next iz a Dawgmadik Records presentation: Bic Jack, anotha one from ‘someone’s’ label that seemed to have stayed in my life longer (‘cause I keep it all tha way official, 100% of tha time)! Here’s his revamped CD called I’on Play 2.5 (The Mixtape)! Funny how on DatPiff, you uploaded this mixtape a year to tha day (April 14 style) from tha 2^nd I’on Play; was that planned, lol? If so, that’s an official attribute! Start Time: 10:41 AM | End Time: 11:06 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.

01. “I’on Play”

>>> Feelin’ tha “I’on play” thang goin’ on, here; it’s like tha “I’on” anthem, lol! Rhymes are definitely catchy, here; you really keep thangz official to tha fullest! I’ve always liked your voice a lot on tha hooks of your tracks; you got character in yourself! My Rating: 4.4

02. “In My Mix”

>>> Sounds like a good beat ta rap on; hope this iz good… Oh wow, lovin’ tha character in your X-rated rhymes!! Real nice job wit this track, includin’ tha beat choice! I like tha “you cool” shit on tha hook; tell them haterz off! Huh? What happened to tha 2^nd verse? At 1:42, it just skipped to tha next hook… Even though fucked up for a “mix” (lol), this joint’s definitely hot! My Rating: 4.3

03. “Ask About Me” Feat. Louisiana Ca$h

I remember you tellin’ me you’re cool wit Louisiana Ca$h; let’s hear this collaboration! >>> Sounds like a gutta BR-type song wit tha hook and possibly, original production; really stabbin’ caution inta tha listeners/haterz on tha 2^nd ½ of tha hook! Definitely nice job wit tha rhymes and what you’re spittin’, here, on tha 1^st verse!! Hearin’ Ca$h on tha 2^nd verse, and he’s got a future for tha haterz wit this “found in a ditch” shit; definitely some catchy shit, includin’ how he random will “stick dick up in [their] girl!” My Rating: 4.5

04. “Respect Me”

>>> I’on know why I thought that was T.I. in tha beginning wit dat voice, lol; you and your catchy voice! Ooh, smoothin’ tha hook a lil’ bit out wit a sing-rap style; I’m actually feelin’ this! “Label only gave me one stack to drop beats and do hooks;” this liine reminded me of somethin’, whether it has ta do wit it or not. Either way, doesn’t it feel shitty to get ditched, randomly? I’m guilty of this! :( Sometimes, freebies can be a curse! But, good job wit tha verses and how you’re comin’ through fa those that should “respect [you]!” My Rating: 4.1

05. “When I Want Some”

>>> Sounds a lil’ quieter here…; can I picture tha dark? Oh, sex wit tha dark! Not much goin’ on wit tha hook? Guess it’s a quieter sex song? Or, was that just an intermission? Not too bad, overall… My Rating: 3.7

06. “I’on Owe A Nigga Shit”

Love tha title! >>> Jammin’ start; “I must be smellin’ myself!” LOL, Jack and your style! Feelin’ tha attitude on tha hook; gutta “shit” wit a gutta mouth! “All you gon want fa Christmas iz fo’ front teeth;” whoa! Glad you got some sort of an attitude goin’ on here, when it comes ta wantin’ ta punch a dude out! My Rating: 4.3

07. “It’s Safe To Say” Feat. D Dub

D Dub not on tha feature, but on tha DatPiff information, so I’ll know to put him in tha feature! >>> Sounds a lil’ smooth; not too bad, overall… I like how you’re descriptive wit your “sex” rhymes… Hook doesn’t sound too bad for a singer bein’ on it. However, shouldn’t this be, like, tha final song on tha mixtape? Almost a lil’ long, too, for a mixtape. My Rating: 3.6

08. “Ain’t Gott’em All”

>>> Sounds like a catchy song; nothin’ too much ta say about tha rhymes you spittin’, here; tha hook’s a good, catchy hook, though. My Rating: 3.9

½time: Nice job, Jack; keep up tha great work, Dawgmadik style! 4.1 for tha CD rating, currently!

09. “Streets Keep Holdin’ Me Back” Feat. Deville

Deville on tha feature (not listed on back cover)… >>> Sounds like an interestin’ mix between singin’ and some street content. Glad to have a vacationin’-Jack doin’ tha damn thang wit enjoyin’ himself; thumbs up ta you, Jack!  My Rating: 3.8

EDIT: This was 8 seconds ‘til I resaved it; now, tha length iz back to normal.

10. “Thuggin’”

>>> I can’t agree wit people chargin’ “for a feature;” features should be based off of mutual friendships, not money! Nobody should rap for tha money! Anyway, likin’ this “thuggin’” hook; keep this shit up wit your character and attitude! My Rating: 4.2

11. “Goin’ All Out” Feat. Dirty Harry

Interestin’ collaboration… >>> Interestin’ singin’ on tha hook; sounds like this gon be an anthem for tha streetz, where you at! Sounds like you’re ready ta invite a “bitch” ova and get it on, lol! As far as Dirty Harry, I’m likin’ his “attitude” and how it’s on some I’on Play-type shit! My Rating: 4.2

12. “Thinkin’ It’s A Joke”

>>> Stuck in some good “pussy”? Sounds like an interestin’ trap, like a bee hive, lol! Not bad wit all these rhymes, overall; glad you’re not “a joke!” My Rating: 3.9

13. “You Da 1 For Me”

>>> Ehh, a lil’ poppy for me wit tha rhymes, even though you’re tryin’ ta pursue an R&B vibe, here… My Rating: 3.3

14. “Another Way Out” Feat. J.R.

>>> Nice beat start; I guess J.R. bein’ on tha feature helps tha anticipation out, here? Tha hook sounds good, but no need to have a “way out” ‘cause tha “dope game” seems to be why your rhymes are good… Either way, nice job wit your two verses and J.R. makes a nice appearance here, too! Thumbs up fa his history in tha streetz ta come through fa this track! We’re all like tha ones that got left out, if you know what I mean! :( But, it seems to be betta to be left out than have someone control you! My Rating: 4.2

15. “Gangsta & Pimp’d Out”

>>> Nice “gangsta & pimp’d out” vibe, here! Beat’s nice and slower, as well as you showin’ off what you “be ‘bout!” You and your “gangsta” rhymes; gotta luv it! Maybe, we’ll see some action on a video real soon? My Rating: 4.1

16. “My Own Thang”

>>> Why did tha beginning sound cut off? Iz this one of those songs that got screwed up again? I remember havin’ to re-save tha song in an audio-editing program for it to add in my iTunes; weird… But, this ain’t too bad for a joint, overall; good for an ending, wit a lil’ bit of a lost, hypnotic feel to it? Glad you ‘bout your “own thang!” My Rating: 4.0

Overall: I like how you didn’t put any songs from tha I’on Play 2 on here; it’s all about lettin’ those faggy times of ’11 go, and I’m glad you agree wit me! Keep grindin’, my boy!

01. Way3000 “Intro”

Lookin’ forward ta hearin’ what he gon say! >>> Sounds good via phone, reppin’ for you! My Rating: N/A

02. Louisiana Ca$h Feat. Bad Azz Ent. “From Louisiana”

Whoo!! Got ta hear this on a mixtape from DJ 5150, Dre & Big Jay recently and it’s jammin’! My Current Rating: 4.7

03. J Roc Feat. Komposure & Lil’ Loc “Stupid Booty”

Don’t think I heard of these artists… >>> Sounds like a random, internet song. Only thing about this iz dat it has some “stupid” dialect (“swag”) in tha ’11 dayz, not like tha 1^st time I heard internet artists… Hook’s nothin’ special ‘til it gets aight wit tha title part… Rhymes are not that decent for me but I guess it’s a catchy, Southern song, overall. My Rating: 3.1

04. Young Kidd Kidd Feat. T Mck & Lil’ Boosie “Where They Do Dat At”

Why no featured artists listed? ROFL, this appeared on a mixtape for tha 2^nd time? Didn’t think this was gettin’ out there like “dat!” My Current Rating: 4.3

05. (Way3000)

LOL @ tha parenthesis! >>> Good check-in from him, again! My Rating: N/A

06. Tu G “I’m Paid”

Anotha newbie. >>> Boo @ tha five seconds of silence in tha beginning! Gee, I guess that was a sign! Why dick-suckin’-dick vocals in 2011? :confused It was cool before ’08 ended! At least tha vocals on tha rappin’s normal. However, since this iz a “money” song, I’m not inta it at all; could get a lil’ original and get rid of those gay-ass vocals on tha hook! My Rating: 1.0

07. Ratchet Locc Feat. Young Menace “Shit Real”

>>> Slow intro; hope it doesn’t scare me… Sounds like an interestin’ song wit tha hook; gets betta once tha fastness comes from tha 1^st verse! Tha 2^nd verse sounds good, too; somethin’ catchy wit an interestin’ twist! My Rating: 4.0

08. (Ratchet Locc)

LOL. >>> Sounds good for tha exposure! My Rating: N/A

09. Young Show Feat. Field City Boyz “Hella Shop”

Thought this was Ville Boyz on tha feature… >>> Must be a 318 song since Deezy On Da Beat’s producin’. Bad intro, here, wit this “swagger” shit; white boy? Why not “swagga”? :confused Catchy hook but I don’t think this’ll last tha quality I’m lookin’ for… I’m still not likin’ this white dialect wit tha “er” shit. :td Not really inta “swag” songs; when did dat stupid word start ta get out there more? My Rating: 2.8

10. Tymer Feat. Lil’ Keke “Shootin’ Spydaz”

Non-Louisiana song? Or, feature? >>> Sounds good for a hook and tha beat, too! I guess tha non-Louisiana artists are soundin’ betta than tha new Louisiana artists, here, ironically… Good shit comin’ from Lil’ Keke on tha 1^st verse, doin’ tha damn thang wit tha good-life perspective and “shootin’ spydaz!” If dat’s Tymer on tha 2^nd verse, it sounds decent; Keke was betta, though, but I guess this iz good exposure. Sounds like more people on tha 3^rd verse? What was dat song blend toward tha end? Almost scares me for tha next song… My Rating: 4.1

11. Tymer “Breaker Breaker 1-9”

What’s this and what’s wit tha same artist twice in a row? >>> Ooh, this sounds betta! Really feelin’ tha energy in tha hook and how he handles tha beat! Good shit goin’ on in tha rhymes, too; he’s got himself a winner, here! I think this iz a catchy title, whateva it iz; consistent shit to tha fullest! My Rating: 4.3

12. Lil’ Boosie Feat. K.T. “California”

>>> Thought I heard this already? Not really in tha mood for Boosie-type shit, now, since I was promised somethin’… :confused Hate this automatic-caring shit! Actually, despite tha beginning, this iz an okay song wit tha rhymes and K.T. doesn’t sound gay wit tha vocals, finally! My Rating: 3.9

½time: Up to tha ½ point, here, and tha CD rating’s at a 3.6; not too good for a mixtape compilation, even wit only one horrible song… I’m sure it’ll pick up in tha 2^nd ½, hopefully!

13. (Way3000)

LOL, doubles! Or wait, for him, it’s a triple! >>> Thumbs up, again! My Rating: N/A

14. Quick & Money Bagz “Pretty Smile”

At least this iz hilarious wit tha Boosie sample! My Current Rating: 4.5

15. Starlito “Lil’ Boosie Out”

What’s this “out” shit in tha ID? It ain’t an “outro”, yet? >>> Why a Tupac intro? :confused Oh wait, tha ID confused tha shit outta me, lol! It’s called “Lil’ Boosie Out” by Starlito, not vice-versa! Sounds tight wit tha beat and rhymes, here, but what makes a “bitch” so special? Opposite thinking? Good for a short song; too bad it’s a ‘short’ song… What’s up wit all tha “Tupac” shit? My Rating: 4.2

16. 2 Slugz “Make It Happen”

Whoo! Finally, some brighter-soundin’ music for me, here! Thought I reviewed it but his mixtape wouldn’t open for me. Instead, I played it on my radio show; lemme review it, now! >>> Yea, some catchy shit, here! “Do you know who I am;” nice and demandin’ dat sounds good! Such catchy rhymes; where tha hell does he gets his thoughts from? Real catchy to tha bone!! Feelin’ tha gangsta-soundin’ 2^nd verse from him, too; lol, he don’t stop!! Glad he makes music videos; he’s all about grindin’!! Boo! Forgot there was a long outro; thought I was gonna hear a 3^rd verse… My Current Rating: 4.5

17. GP “Neva In My Life”

Afraid ta hear dis for some reason… >>> Kinda sounds like Juvie, lol; this iz pretty good… Tha beat’s pretty good and tha content’s soundin’ pretty tight, too! Really likin’ this, vs. a lot of tha newer artists on here! Likin’ tha 2^nd verse wit tha “I will french-fry ya” when it comes ta “touchin’ [his] dollaz!” Oh no, anotha long outro? This iz a longer one but at least there’s a lot of talkin’, here. My Rating: 4.3

18. (Way3000)

LOL, again! >>> Yup, lol, although anotha “Bad Azz Entertainment” shout out? My Rating: N/A

19. Big Two “1234”

Looks familiar but I don’t think I heard it ‘cause I only heard this artist on your CD… >>> LOL, sounds like a funny hook and tha 1^st verse almost sounds like a less-hyper Level… “Took a shot of patron;” surprised, since he’s barely known… Hopefully, I don’t need ta do dat ta be required to get exposure, right? BTW, what’s it like ta “pop one, pop two, pop three, pop fo”? Like, in a creative way, what was date and time he first popped? My Rating: 4.4

20. HardHead “I Pussy Pop”

>>> This sounds catchy, too; anotha good song outta my real-life reach. Tha title looks gender-reversed, though? Shouldn’t it be somethin’ like “Go Pussy Pop” instead of him actually “pussy poppin’”? :confused I don’t get it but it sounds good, here! “I’m in da club, gettin’ fulla dat shit!” Date and time, too? Why not? Add a lil’ somethin’ to tha character! My Rating: 4.2

21. (FrankieThaLuckyDog)

That’s right! >>> Didn’t sound too bad on tha audio quality, since I used a camera dat recorded in mono… See, tha best thing about me iz I edited tha silence out before I submitted it; that’s why it flowed through instantly! My Rating: N/A

22. Young Reio “Get Ratchet”

Anotha song like dis? Let’s see what dis artist has ta offer… >>> Tha hook’s lyrics sound familiar but this iz pretty tight; I guess this iz tha typical, Shreveport-soundin’ vocals/delivery I’d expect, like a Big Poppa baby, lol! Nothin’ really special wit tha rhymes, as I’ve heard ‘em many times. But, this iz a catchy song… A mysterious feature on tha 3^rd verse? They sound only decent but who are they? My Rating: 4.2

23. BadOff “Alphabet Money”

Somebody on tha DatPiff comments said dis was pretty sick; I hope it iz for a “money” title! >>> This doesn’t sound like anything different; just anotha “money” song fa me wit an okay beat and hook… I thought I was expectin’ somethin’ different for a “money” song, finally! My Rating: 3.8

24. BadOff “Outro”

>>> A lil’ longer… Beat sounds nice… I’m feelin’ his dialect more than tha song he just did, lol. Good shit from him, “outro” style! My Rating: N/A

Overall: I’m glad you put me in tha main artists on tha description; I was glad ta be a part of this mixtape, which I thought was pretty good!

Review #1,003: DJ 5150, Dre & Big Jay "no2thebr.com"

Reviewed on 6.26.2011 (Review #1,003)




Got some current reviewz to do; lemme start off wit DJ 5150, Dre & Big Jay “no2thebr.com”. I put tha title in all lower-case letters ‘cause all websites should be listed in lower-case letters; learned that in elementary school. Start Time: 11:11 AM | End Time: 11:49 AM


Quick Note: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself wit my ratings!! I don’t care how lyrical you are! As long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings. If a song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6 rating, I pretty much REALLY LOVE it as it’s considered “mindblowin’” when I hear it. Any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> ” iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song. Anything after I type “ >>> ” iz what I think of tha song while I’m listening to it.

01. Big Jay “no2thebr.com (Intro)”
>>> Good beat… My Rating: N/A


02. Calliope Var Feat. Ceto “Big Dawg”
Production by BlackNMild, here; will it follow tha tight beat from tha intro? >>> Sounds like some hot shit on that level! Despite tha stupid Wayne/Drake flow, this shit’s tight wit tha rhymes and 100% street shit. Thumbs up fa tha collaboration, here; really likin’ tha hook wit tha screwed voice! This iz definitely an anthem!! Tha 2nd verse’s soundin’ betta than tha 1st wit tha flow; tha rhymes serve betta, too, since it’s on a normal, street flow! Almost sounds like an odd voice on tha 3rd verse but this iz still good… My Rating: 4.6


03. B.G. & Lil’ Boosie “187”
Not sure why tha version I had had The Game featured… I guess it makes more sense to have B.G. on it! My Rating: 4.0


04. Lil’ Wayne Feat. Gudda Gudda “YM”
>>> Somewhat-funny 1st verse from Gudda Gudda but why be cocky when he’s wit Cash Money? Okay song, overall, but I definitely won’t take this more serious than tha shit on here! My Rating: 2.9


05. Ray Vicks Feat. Lil’ Phat “Nobody Move”
SMH @ “nobody” bein’ two words? >>> Yea, this ain’t talkin’ about “no body” or “no bodies;” it’s “nobody.” Phat sounds pretty entertainin’, here; not just tha hook but tha 1st verse wit this beat. Tha 2nd verse from Ray’s good ta hear although a lil’ boring wit these typical-ass lyrics… My Rating: 4.3


07. Louisiana Ca$h Feat. Quick, Money Bagz & INFO “I’m From Louisiana”
Forgot tha “$” in Ca$h’s name? >>> Sounds like a real tight 1st listen!! Glad tha beginning hook’s 46 seconds!! Such a real nice hook, especially this “Louisiana” topic! Nice job wit tha 1st verse, here, from Ca$h, reppin’ hard fa err-thang in “Louisiana!” Tha 2nd verse sounds good wit Quick & Money Bagz on it, doin’ their “Louisiana” thang, too! Must be INFO on tha hook ‘cause it sounds like tha same voice on tha 3rd verse? What a nice debut from him; good, catchy verse from him, too! My Rating: 4.7


08. Terror Feat. Young Ready & Lee Banks “Baton Rouge”
Terror from Down Bad? >>> Ooh, feels like I’m in 2007/2008, here; thumbs up from Mr. Cheez, doin’ tha damn thang wit tha “hit tha blunt” part!! This beat’s pretty nice, as I already said dat tha vibe gives me those unforgettable Late 2007/2008 dayz!! It’s always a good thing ta hear shit from Terror at all times!! Tha hook sounds great wit tha “T-shirt” and “windmill” shit! ROFL, I was wondering who tha Young dude was but it’s Ready; smh @ not puttin’ “Ready” in tha ID! Gotta have his gangsta side to it!! I thought it was gonna be Young Rouge ‘cause of tha “Rouge” title w/Young on tha feature, lol. How will Lee Banks do on tha 3rd verse? Hope it ain’t singin’/soft… Okay, looks like he drank Ready potion ‘cause he’s comin’ through wit a ‘I-rep-where-Ready’s-from’-type of verse, here; definitely a plus!!! My Rating: 4.8


09. K. Gates, Kidd Kidd, Bonka, Calliope Var, Nino, G. Wilson, Q.P. & Flow “Welcome To New Orleans”
Whoo!! What a lineup fa eight minutes!!! >>> Crazy-ass beat wit a crazy-ass flow for tha start!!! Tha 1st verse iz pretty serious!! Then again, smh @ tha “Rick Ross” shit. Fuck!! This iz a jacked beat song? Neva mind my comment about tha beat (*blushes*)! Kidd Kidd sounds good wit tha 2nd verse; consistent rhymes that are a lil’ cocky but bring tha tightness. Lookin’ forward ta this Bonka verse… Sounds good; hope I hear somethin’ about weed, lol. More on a “gangsta” side, here, that still sounds tight; it’s Bonka, what more could you expect? Nothin’ but dat tightness!! Tha 4th verse iz Calliope Var, comin’ through wit some good shit fa tha streetz, too! Verse #5 iz Nino, comin’ through wit tight shit, too! Ooh, tha 5th verse was split into two wit G. Wilson up next? I have a feelin’ tha 6th verse’ll be split, too, due to tha remaining length. Anyway, nice job from him comin’ outta nowhere. Tha 1st ½ of tha 6th verse’s soundin’ good; I feel like everyone has tha same quality on this track—most of ‘em… Neva mind about tha ½ ‘cause there’s a 7th verse… Even though tha attitude iz gutta as hell, I’m really not feelin’ this Wayne/Drake flow; WTF? My Rating: 4.5


10. Lee Banks “Dum Shit 2011”
Let’s see this “2011 shit”… >>> Remake to tha old “Dum Shit” song? Sounds like those good dayz on tha hook but let’s see tha rhymes… Sound good for tha streetz; hopefully, I can hear more from him so I can recover from tha R&B CD… My Rating: 4.1


11. Webbie Feat. Beezy Bird “Sleep”
Ooh, Beezy Bird exposure on tha “bow, bow” shit in tha beat! Glad this iz featured on here ‘cause it got a good rating from me, previously! My Current Rating: 4.4


12. DJ 5150 Feat. Ray Vicks & Cutta “Hustle Game”
DJ 5150 as tha main artist? >>> Sounds good wit tha hook; how in tha hell could you do “150”? Izn’t that impossible? Good job wit tha song, overall; likin’ tha 2nd verse a lil’ betta wit tha voice and shit brought to tha table. My Rating: 4.2


½time: There’s a bunch of bangaz on this CD that I heard for tha 1st time! Thumbs up fa this compilation, ya dig? Average CD Rating: 4.3, currently!!!


13. Ville Boyz Feat. Young Ready “’Bout Dat”
Anotha hot song featured on here! My Current Rating: 4.7


14. Delwin The Krazyman Feat. Young Ready, B-Raw, Ceddybu & DJ B-Real “Big Boy (Remix)”
Still don’t know how to spell “Krazyman” (“Crazy Man” ))? Now, Young Ready’s correctly ID’d? >>> Decent, overall; where does tha amount of people come outta, though? My Rating: 4.1


15. Short Bus Boyz Feat. Level & DJ B-Real “Throwed Off”
I believe tha ID’s fucked, here; “Short Bus Boyz” as tha title and “Throwed Off” as tha main artist? *Fixes it* >>> This has that good, ‘07/’08 vibe wit tha beat; consistent, 225-type shit goin’ on, here! DJ B-Real sounds good on tha hook; glad ta hear J-Skillz on this, too! My Rating: 4.6


16. A-One (Wissel) Feat. Lil’ One The Champ & Lil’ Mista “Last Days”
I will always put “Lil’” in front of Mista’s name ‘cause I believe there was a Mista in Louisiana back in tha day. >>> Sounds okay but how come I keep hearin’ that Lil’ One in here when there’s three people? My Rating: 3.8


17. Lil’ Boxx Feat. Lil’ Cali “Erybody Know Me”
Yes, a new Lil’ Boxx song! >>> Sounds kinda simple on tha hook but it’s 100 when Lil’ Boxx flows! This iz some hot production, too, 2011 style! Glad he’s gettin’ exposure ta collab wit Lil’ Cali! Nice shit from Boxx throughout tha 1st verse and Cali’s doin’ a good job, too; “we fuck wit Big Faces!” “Attitude like fuck it;” that’s right!! My Rating: 4.6


18. Puppy “Gettin’ Bank”
>>> Good that a shorter song’s on here. As for tha song, tha beat sounds plain (I guess ‘cause I’m not sure who’s on it), tha content iz way too typical/boring but tha rappin’ iz good… Oh, “EQ made my beat;” still semi-plain but ain’t too bad, overall. “Ain’t no need for masturbation;” boo! My Rating: 4.2


19. Lucci Lou Feat. T@ “Trips”
I will always smh @ this artist ‘cause they stole tha Jamaican singer’s name!! >>> Sounds like an interestin’ song wit a mission to get shit sent. Overall, short but sweet… My Rating: 3.9


20. Mr. Marcelo “Real As It Gets”
>>> Thought tha production was gonna be a lil’ soft but it’s soundin’ like some good, older-soundin’ shit. Feelin’ tha “facts” and what he’s got goin’ on, here… My Rating: 4.0


21. Ronny My “Bang, Bang, Bang”
LOL, this ending of tha CD’s lookin’ like tha last one, almost… >>> Sounds like a decent song from him; not much ta say but catchy job wit tha hook… My Rating: 3.7


22. Kashflow Feat. Trademark Da Skydiver “Smokin’ N Watchin’ Movies”
Looks pretty tight on tha ID! >>> Kinda good and somewhat-decent at tha same time… Tha beat’s startin’ ta catch on and this somewhat-good hook’s catchin’ on, too; how come everyone has to mention a “bitch” in their songs? Like, how many songs we gon have? Likin’ tha 2nd verse wit tha amount of rhymes, randomly! My Rating: 4.2


23. Jason Lyric “Women”
>>> Sounds unanticipatin’ for tha start; gonna only browse through this since I don’t have time. Damn, Pop song? Who likes Pop music? Get this shit outta here!! My Rating: 1.4


24. Lil’ Wayne “How To Love”
>>> Same here!! My Rating: 1.0


25. 31stDeedy “Bedroom”
>>> A lil’ betta but I prefer “Smokin’ N Watchin’ Movies”… LOL, tha hook has a random, G-Funk sound? My Rating: 3.7


Overall: Sour ending but I still consider this somethin’ good…
