Review #1,869: Krazy "Please Don't Kill Me"

Reviewed on 12.15.2019 (Review #1,869)

Got my next review up now: Krazy Please Don’t Kill Me, released in 1999 on Ruff Era Records! Start Time: 10:21 AM | End Time: 11:36 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 (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s str8, fa these legends… Not really inta tha depressin’ songs but this one has more of an upbeat beat to it, so it ain’t too bad… A long outro, here, soundin’ a lil’ emotional wit tha “R.I.P.” shit. My Rating: 3.2

17. “See Daylight” feat. Skandalust & Ed West

Producer: Ezell Swang

>>> A good lil’ beat vibe, once again, even tho tha content’s a lil’ sad… I’m likin’ Ed on tha hook, this time; like how he sings, “Daylight!” Hearin’ tha 1^st verse from you and it’s good; I’ll give you your upbeat props… Got Skandulust on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit some nice rhymes; props ta her, too… Got you on tha 3^rd verse, comin’ through wit okay rhymes; it str8 fa me… My Rating: 3.9

01. “Shed Tears” feat. Stress & Ed West

Produced by Ezell Swang! >>> Nice lil’ beat; I’ono about this sad beat, tho; I’m not big about depressed songs… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s nice wit how you comin’ through wit this one, tho… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s nice, too; diggin’ your grimy, Tupacish-soundin’ voice… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 3^rd verse, here, soundin’ pretty dope, too! And, a long outro, here… My Rating: 4.0

02. “Ballin’ Tonight” feat. Lyric & Sweetie

Ezell Swang beat, here… He did most of tha production but not all of it… >>> Fuck this!!! I’m not in tha mood for remakes; totally “Take Your Time (Do It Right)” on tha hook, here!! Not feelin’ it but it sounds like one of those novelty singles or somethin’… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it sounds like if Tupac needed a really big pop song, smh… Tha 2^nd verse sounds like a featured artist that’s not credited; hmm… This whole entire track sounds random, here… Oh, I just wanna PUNCH that hook!!! And, tha 3^rd verse; ehh… My Rating: 1.6

03. “Me & You” feat. Ed West

Sinista track! >>> I’m diggin’ this beat, right chea! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse in this undaground world and it’s pretty nice… Likin’ tha hook, here, wit this singin’ (found out it was Ed West); good shit… And, we got tha 2^nd verse, here, soundin’ decent; not bad… Tha rest of this was pretty nice; good shit… My Rating: 4.1

04. “Down Town”

Ezell Swang in tha buildin’! >>> Sounds pretty nice wit that sampled beat in tha background, too… Great job wit how you comin’ through on tha 1^st verse, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s pretty nice! Kinda reminds me of a track I heard in Baton Rouge six years ago, like, “Baton Rouge got you goin’ to Winfield quicker,” or somethin’ like that… And, great job wit how you’re comin’ through wit tha 2^nd verse, here, continuously goin’… Tha 3^rd verse’s pretty nice, too; good shit… My Rating: 4.0

05. “Game On Freeze” feat. Legend Man & Ed West

Anotha Ezell Swang beat! >>> Sounds like a nice lil’ hook and beat, here; laidback but a lil’ upbeat… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s pretty nice, here; good job… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2^nd verse, here, soundin’ nice ta hear, too… Movin’ on with tha 3^rd verse, here, soundin’ nice ta hear, too, as we continue… My Rating: 3.8

06. “Watching You”

Wydell beat… >>> Sounds like a nice lil’ undaground, laidback beat, here, with a lil’ upbeatness… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s pretty nice from “you,” here… Tha hook from tha female sounds like it remakes somethin’, here (“watching you, watching me”); I’ono about it… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s decent, here… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 3^rd verse, too, and it’s decent, too… My Rating: 3.5

07. “Pray 4 Me” feat. Ed West

Ezell Swang on tha track… >>> This a slower one, here; not bad… I don’t really have much ta say about this but how you have a Tupac-soundin’ voice? Was one of tha reasons that you grew up in tha same era as him? My Rating: 2.6

½time: Looks like a weirdly-rated review, here… A 3.4-rated CD, so far… There’s a few tight tracks but a few had really weird samples and threw me off…

08. “Chopper” feat. Mr. Sleep & Mr. Sinister

Ezell Swang doin’ anotha one… >>> Sounds good, here, wit tha vibe and how you comin’ through on tha 1^st verse, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s decent wit what y’all bringin’, here… Tha 2^nd verse sounds nice, too, with both features; good shit… My Rating: 3.7

09. “World Of Sin”

Sinista did this one but really, 6:26? >>> Sounds good wit tha 1^st verse, here; you got tha rhymes on lock fa tha streetz of New Orleans, here… A female singin’ tha hook, here; almost sounds like anotha sample… And, we got tha 2^nd verse comin’ along, here, soundin’ decent, too… More shit comin’ along, here, wit tha 3^rd verse, soundin’ pretty nice, too… At 4:07, it turned into a skit or somethin’ wit some nice-ass “herb,” too! My Rating: 3.4

10. “Streets To The Pin”

White Boy Greg on tha track… >>> A decent lil’ undaground-soundin’ ‘90s beat, here… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s pretty nice wit tha rap you’re providin’ to tha undaground, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s quick and okay, here… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s nice ta hear, too; not bad, overall… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 3^rd verse, here, soundin’ nice wit these rhymes… Diggin’ tha dogs barkin’ around 2:57, too, lol… My Rating: 3.9

11. “My Enemies”

Ezell Swang beat… >>> Sounds like a decent lil’ beat, here… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and you got some of these rhymes on lock, here… Tha hook’s kinda good, but I’m startin’ ta feel a lil’ irritated with tha Tupac-soundin’ voice… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s decent ta hear, too… And, we got tha 3^rd verse, here, soundin’ pretty nice ta hear, as well… My Rating: 3.6

12. “Neglect Me” feat. Tanya Jarvis

Sinista doin’ this one… >>> A cryin’ baby in tha beginning with this title? Prolly gon be pretty rough ta hear… Tha 1^st verse from you ain’t that bad, here… Hearin’ tha hook from Tanya and it sounds good; sucks about tha “neglectin’,” tho… Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s pretty nice wit what you’re bringin’ to tha table, here… And, tha 3^rd verse’s here, soundin’ good wit tha rhymes… Even tho this was a good review, tha track, itself, iz just okay for me, with these “neglectin’” vibes… My Rating: 3.3

13. “Chopper (Radio Edit)” feat. Mr. Sleep & Mr. Sinister

See #8 fa tha review…

14. “Ballin’ Tonight (Radio Edit)” feat. Lyric & Sweetie

Review #1,090: Black Da Gutta Baby "Product"

Reviewed on 12.02.2011 (Review #1,090)


My last review iz tha night iz from Black Da Gutta Baby Product, wit Masta Mind Entertainment. Start Time: 11:19 PM | End Time: 11:53 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 already love it. 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. “How It Is”
>>> Didn’t know what ta make outta this production, but it’s decent; sounds like it could be mainstream, wit an underground twist. Not bad wit tha content; good job, here. My Rating: 3.8


02. “Beat (Remix)”
>>> This (and your voice, at times) has a good, H-Town feel to it. I like how it’s a song for tha hoes; sounds good… My Rating: 3.9


03. “What Niggas Do” Feat. Yung
>>> Why tha Tupac in tha beginning? Good purpose, though, to influence tha hook. I like tha “I’mma smoke weed” part in tha hook; good, somewhat-addictive shit. Tha both of y’all are doin’ a nice job, here; good collaboration, “studio” environment and err-thang! My Rating: 4.2


04. “Believe In Me” Feat. Yung
Damn, missin’ an “I” in “beleve”? >>> Beat’s pretty good, wit a different vibe, fa you ta spit some good rhymes; nice hook and verse from you. Yung’s soundin’ good, once again; “mama taught me how ta put my dick in my hand”? What does that mean? My Rating: 3.9


05. “Boo Boo” Feat. D-Matic
>>> Kinda childish on tha title/usin’ it as an action verb; D-Matic sounds good on tha hook, outta nowhere, though. For you, you are rappin’ some good shit, though; can’t deny dat… D-Matic’s doin’ his thang on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit tha great verse, flow, and content! You holdin’ down tha final verse, here, wit D-Matic, too; gotta luv some of tha collaboration work goin’ on wit this CD! My Rating: 3.7


06. “Lights Down Low” Feat. Killa K
>>> I dunno why but I thought this was gonna be a gangsta-type song wit tha “low” (like, keep it on tha “low”). But, this sounds a lil’ soft for me, for tha ladies… Killa K a lady? Prolly said this once before, but she sounds good… You sound pretty tight wit tha feature; rofl @ randomly sayin’, “like Level, iz you wet yet.” It’s kinda like, that song’s actually known? What about my music? Nobody quotes me… I thought I had some not-so-tight starting feedback, but it seemed to pick up… My Rating: 3.6


07. “UGK” Feat. Da Underdawgz
I dunno why, but I thought tha feature said, “Da Underground Kingz,” as a DatPiff-removed song or somethin’… >>> Good vibe; lol, soundin’ like Pimp C, here? Sounds good wit tha “UGK”-type content. My Rating: 4.1


08. “Ride Wit Me” Feat. Lyric
>>> Kinda soft, but I’m likin’ that hook wit tha gurl. Lyric’s not tha gurl? Hearin’ a feature on tha 1^st verse, and I assume it’s Lyric; guess tha hook’s a sample/pre-made hook? Either way, I’m likin’ this, wit a West Coast tip! You’re followin’ tha featured dude, comin’ through wit that great voice and this talent! My Rating: 4.0


09. “Koolin’”
>>> Sounds like a pop-rap beat or somethin’ (like “Soulja Girl”)…; really mixed-up shit, here, between tha pop-rap Vybe beat, vs. your fast-ass, tight content. Prolly could’ve shortened this joint a lil’ bit, but whateva… Overall, I think this iz a good turnout, on a relaxin’ tip wit tha “koolin’.” My Rating: 3.8


10. “Booty Clap”
>>> Sounds like a good club song, kinda in an underground way. My Rating: 4.1


½time: I’m likin’ this CD; pretty consistent, here! You have a 3.9 for tha CD rating, currently.


11. “Cumin’” Feat. Da Fatt Boyz
Two “M”s? >>> I see this iz on a sex tip, so you can prolly subtract one of those “M”s. You sound good wit this shit and rofl @ this hook; gotta luv my explicit shit! My Rating: 4.3


12. “Hustle Everyday” Feat. Yung & Mutta Gutta
>>> I like how this sounds; you really holdin’ it down fa every single dude out there, no matter what their status/job iz! Thumbs up fa this hook; tha content’s definitely on-point!! Good shit from Yung on tha 2^nd verse, too; lol, he all about dat tasty shit, ya dig? Who’s this Mutta Gutta? Ooh, a non-Baton Rouge version of Sam I Am, mixed wit a lil’ bit of Magic? Definitely feelin’ tha Louisiana vibe he’s bringin’ to tha table! My Rating: 4.3


13. “Money” Feat. John B & D-Matic
Not my kinda title. >>> Why iz tha length 4:59? At least tha song iz on-point, without anything bullshitty comin’ outta it, so far… Good job wit tha hook; you really holdin’ shit down, once again! Good job wit tha 1^st verse; keep reppin’ fa err-body! Tha 2^nd verse iz John B—whoeva this iz—comin’ through wit good shit fa tha area you rep, too! Now, lemme hear what tha big dawg, Matic, has ta offer… Yes, definitely feelin’ this street shit he’s bringin’ to this track; nice job, but lol @ all this interest wit “money” err-body has! My Rating: 4.4


14. “Snakes”
>>> For tha ladies? Thought it was gonna be for tha male haterz. Good job wit tha rhymes, too; likin’ what you got goin’ on wit tha verses, too! My Rating: 4.2


15. “Relax”
>>> Sounds like a calm version of tha previous song, lol; good rhymes about tryin’ ta “relax,” ya feel me? My Rating: 3.8


16. “On My Own”
>>> An okay sound, so far; nothin’ too special for me… Then again, I didn’t hear your rappin’, yet; you know your rappin’ iz what adds that extra spice to tha track!! Good job; keep, keep, keep, keep, keep goin’!!! My Rating: 4.1


17. “Mind Ur Business” Feat. John B
>>> Iz John B tha singe—oh, I keep forgettin’ he’s a rapper, lol. But, anotha good pre-made hook song, here, it sounds like. You can get away wit any kinda content, for tha most part; most rappers I be hearin’ can’t pull it off like you! John B sounds good wit his advice in tha 1^st verse; thumbs up… Here you are on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit your evidence; good job, between tha advice and tha evidence! My Rating: 4.0


18. “Witout Cha” Feat. Yung
What kinda title’s this? Should it be “Outcha”? I think it could be both wayz… >>> Sounds good for a slow song. Oh, actually, it should be “Witout”; compound way. Not really into knowin’ that there’s a sample goin’ on here wit tha vocals on tha hook (Simply Red “Holding Back The Years”). Actually, I’m likin’ it a lil’ betta; at least it ain’t a high-pitched female vocal sample! Good collaboration, once again, between you & Yung; can’t deny it! My Rating: 3.9


19. “Wham” Feat. Yung
>>> This iz catchy; a sound effect in tha title iz always good! Yung’s comin’ through wit some nice shit on tha 1^st verse! “Like an axe ‘bout ta come out dis bitch;” nice line, especially havin’ an “axe” as what comes out! At least it ain’t on some typical, gun shit; thumbs up fa this shit! Based off tha length, I thought there was gonna be three verses, but it’s only two. You’re on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit rhymes you gotta luv, especially when “marijuana”’s in it! My Rating: 4.2


20. “Yellow Bone” Feat. Yung
>>> This iz aight for me; sounds like a random voice goin’ on, here, wit tha sample… Yung sounds like a calm version of Level, a lil’ bit, wit tha voice, here, mixed wit a lil’ 225; good job, again… Again, I thought this was gonna be a three-verse song, but it’s two, lol; nice job from you wit your catchy flow, Black; gotta keep it goin’!! My Rating: 3.9


21. “Music” Feat. Megan Moton & Yung
>>> Beat’s a lil’ soft for me, here… You’re on tha 1^st verse and it sounds good; analyzin’ tha fakes, here, wit some good shit… Tha hook’s a lil’ dry for me; liked tha Killa K one and also, tha Lyric feature one better, whether it was pre-made or not. LOL, anotha two-verse song outta nowhere (tha lineup confused me, this time); good job, Yung, again. My Rating: 3.3


Overall: For me not bein’ one bit in tha mood for tha reviewz, right now, I thought this CD was definitely nice; felt great to give it a good review! Keep up tha great work; thumbs up fa bein’ nice and consistent wit what chu do!
