Review #1,931: MobbGod "Induction Ceremony (Deluxe Edition)"

Reviewed on 5.31.2020 (Review #1,931)


Had ta take some time out my current, busy schedule ta get ta some reviewz… Copped two albums, recently & this tha 1st one I’m reviewin’ for today: MobbGod Induction Ceremony (Deluxe Edition), courtesy of Solo Mafia Enterprises; that’s right! Savage a.k.a. Supa Sav b.k.a. Sav Rothstein f.k.a. Sav Sinatra p.k.a. King Sav n.k.a. MobbGod! Sav was tha 1st artist to randomly travel to my area (New York or PA) & actually encounter me! Since January 8, 2009, when Nu$$ie was ‘pose to see me in New York, I’ve had about seven failed attempts at artists comin’ ta visit me. Now, with time & growth bein’ tha key, Sav & I were able ta link up! Good shit! With that bein’ said, here goes tha review! Start Time: 5:14 PM | End Time: 6:00 PM


Disclaimer: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion! I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care how lyrical you are, as long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings. If a song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6 rating, I pretty much really love it, as it’s considered mindblowin’ when I hear it! Any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> ” iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song; anything after I type “ >>> ” iz what I think of tha song while I’m listening to it. If you sound like anything too mainstream for me, have auto-tune in your vocals, or talk about nothin’ but money (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

© 2020 Review (Review #1,931) reviewed on 5.31.2020 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “Induction Ceremony”
One that I randomly added, earlier this year, courtesy of your birthday, Sav… Wanted ta show you luv & now, I gotta show you bigger luv, since we got ta encounter each other, 10 dayz ago…!

As far as this song, I like tha lil’ phone call/intro/skit in tha beginning. Then, you continue tha intro wit you lightin’ up; definitely nice fa a laidback vibe… I like how you wanna “step on ‘em” & shit like dat, as far as how you handle tha verse. Also, when you adlib, “Pussazz…;” good shit! With how you explain yourself in this song, I like how you show tha growth in your life; definitely nice! This what tha laidback tracks should be like; nothin’ else ta really say… My Current Rating: 4.4


02. “Where It’s At”
>>> Likin’ how tha keys & intro sounds like it’s hittin’ hard, here…! Lol, I like how you sound on tha hook, here, as far as “tha bag” go! Good shit, here; I’m sure others make it sound boring (“tha bag,” that iz)! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse & it sounds nice wit what you bringin’ to tha table; all about tha grown Sav! Got tha 2nd verse comin’ through, here & it sounds nice; “all about my Curren$y, like Jet Life!” Gotta luv how you got tha “Curren$y” on lock, fa this anthem & how you define your hustle! Luv that you came to tha northeast on two back-ta-back weeks! That’ll prolly be me when I reach your age, in six years? My Rating: 4.4


03. “Still (Remix)” feat. O.U. Bird & C-Loc
>>> I’m diggin’ your smooth, southern-soundin’ Sav production, here. However, I’on really fuck wit tha auto-tuned hook, as well as this bein’ about “money.” It kinda answers that “boring” feedback I left about tha last song, where when others make songs about tha bag; tha previous song sounded betta wit how you sounded, overall. Either way, you sound okay on tha 1st verse; it str8, I guess… I got wrapped up too much in leavin’ feedback on tha hook… Tha 2nd verse ain’t C-Loc but Bird, here (ID error, order-wise; gotta flip it!); he good wit what he spittin’ fa you, here… He even mentioned “Corona;” you can tell this that new-new… Sounds good wit how he kept tha rest of this shit goin’… Keepin’ it movin’ wit Loc on tha 3rd verse, here…; sounds good, as you can’t complain when tha Bigg Dawg hit tha mic…! My Rating: 2.4


04. “Big Freak” feat. Dreamm
>>> Lol, nice lil’ mainstream-soundin’ club banga, here? You sound either silly and/or like one of those dance-move rappers, on tha hook… Either way, I’m glad you always have this lifestyle in your Mobb life! Got tha 1st verse goin’ on & it str8/mainstream-taste, here. Sounds like you got a ton of lyrics droppin’ on top of lyrics, here? I see ya… Got this Dreamm chick on tha 2nd verse, soundin’ nice wit how she contributin’ to tha track, here. Kinda bored of all these female rappers, these dayz; guess I’ll just appreciate ‘em in tha undaground, fa now? My Rating: 4.2


05. “Prayer For The Streets”
>>> Could you imagine? “You hear tha way we rip tha [MobbGod] track to pieces?” Lol… Not sure what I can anticipate wit your voice effect in tha beginning, here… Got tha 1st verse goin’ on, here & it sounds dedicated fa tha fam, here… Only “three kids,” durin’ this recording; crazy that tha 4th one brought you up to PA! Yup, R.I.P. ta “Chill,” as well; good shit. Hearin’ tha hook & it str8; sounds good & not depressin’ fa this “prayer.” Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & I’m likin’ what you spittin’ fa tha world we be in, these dayz. They really will give you a “charge,” if you ain’t got a “charge!” It’s like, tha both of us got locked up, in tha past? Doesn’t even make fuckin’ sense! Glad you always on “dem grapes,” like you “on Mars,” too; gots to! I even out-did your high, that day! I was gone off 24 mg of edibles, plus what we was shmokin’! Then again, who knows, you prolly pre-gamed b4 we linked up, so maybe, we tied? My Rating: 3.6


06. “We Up” feat. Geechee The Don
>>> I like tha instant start, here, wit you on tha 1st verse…; keep countin’ your “loose-leaf!” Beat sounds like it’s an okay, lyrical-soundin’ southern vibe? Good advice & what you bringin’, lyrically… Hearin’ tha hook and I’ono about tha voice effect witchu, here; not really diggin’ it, even tho you try, I notice… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse from Geechee & it aight; just sounds more like rappin’ than catchy-rappin’, as far as a tight track fa me… My Rating: 2.7


07. “Like You Say”
>>> Almost sounds like it’s a breed of tha song I just listened to, on here… However, this hook sounds more like a YoungBoy, mainstream-type vibe & not so auto-iffy, like tha previous joint… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse & it sounds okay wit what you bringin’ to tha table, here. Sounds like you more in a state of mind where you wanna make relaxin’-type music, these dayz? Even tho not my top picks, I still think we would make great autistic stoner rap together, when I finally get back ta recordin’… Keepin’ this thang movin’ wit tha 2nd verse & yeah, you can “get pussy anywhere.” Like, you just had anotha kid on tha other side of tha country, lol! My Rating: 3.2


½time: I’m feelin’ 50/50 wit this release, Sav… A few laidback tracks that are decent fa me (tha title track’s more of a standout laidbacker than tha other ones that try to sound like urban hits), while just a touch of extra greatness, so far… You got a 3.6 for tha ½time rating; how will you continue ta do…?


08. “Do It (For The Mobb)”
>>> Sounds better, here; beat cool, tho a lil’ plain, at times (quiet organ)… I like how this a nice lil’ anthem “for tha Mobb,” here; nice way of hookin’ a hook in…! Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it sounds good wit how you keepin’ these partyin’ vibes goin’; keep it goin’…! Lol, likin’ tha drunk vibes goin’ on durin’ tha start to tha 2nd verse, here; let these boyz know there’s no such thang as ‘old!’ Likin’ how you can hear tha organ clear, on tha nice outro… My Rating: 4.3


09. “In The Way”
>>> Thought it woulda been pretty nice wit tha beat start but then, you take that risk of tryna be 100% mainstream? Tha auto-tune/weird singin’ & tha “money” talk; ahh…! When you say tha title, that’s prolly tha only good part of tha hook; that’s it. Either way, at least tha 1st verse has normal rappin’; this that shit I be diggin’, at least! Dat organic Sav! Tha 2nd verse sounds good wit how you keepin’ this street shit goin’; guardin’ everythang, here…! Yeah, I know how 12 be! Like, “Just got out tha county;” it’s pathetic how 12 looks at us like we bad! My Rating: 3.0


10. “Player”
>>> Likin’ how this beat intro sounds like some old west vs. south music, from tha ‘90s… Hearin’ tha hook & this how you make a good hook sound, not like tha full auto-tuned ones! All about tha “fresh fit” & “where I got dem shoes;” fuckin’ right, Sav! I agree…

“Where I got my shoes,” they ask? Just think of a plug! That’s it, lol! Anywayz, got your normal voice on tha 1st verse, comin’ through wit some nice shit, here; good job wit how you keepin’ this shit goin’…! Keepin’ mo of dat good, mobbstyled lifestyle goin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ good… Nice lil’ job wit makin’ this sound like one of those throwback jointz fa some1 ta embrace their style with… My Rating: 4.1


11. “3:00 AM”
>>> Sounds funny wit tha way you wanna “talk to [these bitches] about where you came [street life],” on this slow, sex-fuckin’ track, lol. Wouldn’t thank a slow vibe like dis would open a mouth up fa tha street life but, to each iz their own mobb, I guess? Lol… Hearin’ tha hook & it sounds okay fa bein’ “in [ya] zone,” here… Good job settin’ tha slow tone, even tho it kinda blah fa me, especially wit your auto-tune… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & it aight; wouldn’t’ve thought you’d rap about a “unicorn” & shit, tho… Nice lil’ hi-hat solo toward tha end, too… My Rating: 2.6


12. “We Thank You”
>>> Thought this was gon just be an outro of shout outs but it’s a track… Hearin’ you spit these thank-yous & it sounds nice on tha 1st verse; props, most definitely… I feel where you comin’ wit tha hook, as far as “We Thank You” (those that have fallen that have paved our wayz). However, anotha auto-tune approach & it sadly continues to, like, 2x a hook’s normal length. Hate ta have it cost you some of tha score but I gotta keep it 100% honest, here… My Rating: 2.8


13. “365” feat. Boosie Badazz & Geechee The Don
>>> Sounds like anotha one of your laidback tracks but no wack vocals, so far… Tha hook ain’t too bad; just sounds like a good singin’ vibe… Hearin’ tha 1st verse from you & it ain’t bad wit what you bringin’; I’ll give you tha thumbs up. Got Boosie on tha 2nd verse & see, I always enjoy how he comes through, on tha mic. I luv how he alternates his flow & makes whateva he’s contributin’ to sound nice. Wit dat bein’ said, great job contributin’ ta dis, Boosie! Keepin’ it movin’ wit Geechee on tha 3rd verse & he sounds good; I’m feelin’ what he bringin’… Kinda sounds like one of your close friends/music peeps? Almost a similar flow, while rappin’… My Rating: 3.8


14. “Slide” feat. Jiggy Da Menace & Tre Louis
>>> Oh boy, tha squeekin’, like Trillville & Cutty’s “Some Cut” beat from ’04… Hearin’ Jiggy on tha 1st verse & he sounds nice wit what he bringin’, here; good shit… Hearin’ tha hook from you & it sounds nice wit how you layin’ this “slide in dat pussy” setting, here; I digz it more than most hooks, on this review… Hearin’ you on tha 2nd verse & you “Clifford,” a “dog,” here; dig it! Got Tre on tha 3rd verse, comin’ through wit some okay rhymes; nothin’ really sparkin’ crazy wit ‘em. To me, it’s just an extra contribution that tha track needed? My Rating: 3.8


Overall: Not really that high of scores, due to certain ways I felt about tracks. A lil’ too many risks of usin’ tha auto-tune on tha hooks, this time round. I done heard you sound like Pimp; I done heard how you did tha “Slide” hook. Ta me, those two wayz you’ve sounded make you who you are. You don’t need auto-“doom” ta sound cool/acceptin’. With that bein’ said, don’t take this as hate, of course. I bought tha album; I gon always support ya. I thank you for all tha times you showed me luv & I always gon keep spreadin’ da luv, ya heard me? You gon get back on my playlist with anotha one of tha jointz on here, so that’s at least a win…

Reviewed on 8.15.2019 (Review #1,813)


Got tha final installment fa DJ Tremon Hottest In The City 7, right nah—tha review, that iz! Just like Vol. 2, this one got removed from DatPiff, smh. However, it’s on SoundCloud, so I’m able ta listen/review it…! Start Time: 9:39 PM | End Time: 10:37 PM

© 2019 CD Review (Review #1,813) reviewed on 8.15.2019 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. O.U. Bird “2 By 2”
Looks like we’re gonna start this off right! >>> Sounds good; was caught off-guard wit tha “we don’t shmoke 1, we shmoke 2.” Thought it was gon be 100% str8 pillhead shit but this sounds good. Toward tha end of tha hook, he goin’ “2 By 2,” as far as tha pillz go. Wit dat bein’ said, good job wit tha hook & rappin’ ova this beat. Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds cool; glad he luv gettin’ fulla dat shit! Tha 2nd verse’s pretty dope, too; gotta dig it! “Dat nigga fulla dat shit!” My Rating: 4.2


02. Jaye London & Famous “Aim Game Nasty”
>>> Sounds cool wit this vibe; almost sounds like Supa (sampled) on tha hook, when they say tha title. Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ good, strictly “rollin’ on dat suicide!” Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s cool; no Supa sample here, but it sounded like him… Overall, I’m diggin’ this; let’s keep it goin’! My Rating: 3.8


03. Shon Thang “Murda Man Talk”
>>> Almost ain’t feel tha voice, at first (thought it was YoungBoy or somethin’). However, this ain’t too bad. Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it str8; let’s see what else this got… Hearin’ tha hook and tha voice sounds a lil’ more annoying, based off tha stronger emotion bein’ delivered. I’ono, I’ll have ta see how this one progresses… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s aight. Overall, I thank I’m slightly more annoyed than impressed… My Rating: 2.6


04. Yotsai feat. Taywrk “30mg”
>>> A DJ Swift beat, here; likin’ this title, too… Sounds like a good lil’ gangsta-soundin’ hook, wit tha cockin’ goin’ on. Beat’s on point ta keep these dudes hyped; good shit! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ good; gotta be “fulla dat good…!” Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and dude sound pretty quick wit tha rappin’; good shit. Feelin’ his BR swag, as far as how he raps; good shit. My Rating: 3.8


05. Gang Music “How To Act”
>>> Likin’ this intro/hook; “fulla purp!” Tha beat sounds pretty dope, too, once it kicks in! Sounds like a classic Mouse/Q-Red/B-Real production; good shit! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds good ta get tha “whole club dumb;” late 2010’s-type BR shit! “I finna hit up Vibes 2night;” I still gotta hit dat bitch up. I went to a coupla places (DJ’s Club Elite, Bella Noche, Tremon’s & a few others) but there’s a few I gotta hit up. Can’t wait fa my shake back! One day, next decade, I guess? Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here… Ain’t expect tha deeper-soundin’ voice; almost doesn’t fit tha energy level? Not bad but luckily, it was only a ½ verse and now, we got anotha member of Gang Music on tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse… Comin’ through, bar’d-up! Good shit! My Rating: 4.2


06. Mista Cain feat. T.Y. & Lil’ Soulja Slim “Break Bread”
No title? >>> Sounds a lil’ catchy but shitty wit tha vocals, on tha hook. Guess this one called “Break Bread”? Got a normal-soundin’ Mista on tha 1st verse, here, soundin’ like he braggin’, braggin’. “$30,000 in dat bag,” huh? Surprised I ain’t even get a dolla fa all tha great shit I do fa BR, yet, from him; disappointing! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse from B.G.’s son and it str8; good lil’ contribution. Now, to anotha son: Soulja Slim’s, on 3rd verse: Soundin’ good wit what he spittin’; “Magnolia to da bone.” Good verses, here, despite tha shitty-soundin’ hook. On anotha note, Mista should “Break Bread” wit me! I been showin’ him luv since May 2009! My Rating: 2.8


07. Rocky Mountainz feat. Jade Delvalle “I Am Dope”
I know this one familiar; an added feature, this time? Needless ta say, I still feel tha same way as I did about this on Vol. 5… Did this new version need a female? It’s cool; it fits tha vibe, so it’s a non-affectin’ bonus. My Current Rating: 3.5


08. GG Records “Outside”
>>> Reppin’ fa da “slimez,” here… Sounds a lil’ annoying wit tha way they sound, on tha hook… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and I’ono if I’m diggin’ this flow. Just sounds like a bunch of lyrics bein’ slammed in yo face… Sometimes, I dig it; I might dig otha songs of theirs, in tha future… Not feelin’ tha voice of tha 2nd verse, neither; gotta ditch tha effects ‘cause it affects! Get it?! Like, what’s goin’ on from 1:48 – 2:00? Lyrics, lyrics, lyrics, lyrics, lyrics, lyrics, lyrics just bein’ shoved atcha! My Rating: 1.4


09. Beezy K “System”
Now wit only one “K”, unless I keep confusin’ this wit tha Beezy KKK; am I confusin’ myself, right nah? >>> Sounds like a YoungBoy flow; good rhymes but nothin’ special to catch on to me… Let’s keep tha YoungBoy-soundin’ music ta other people—oh wait, for tha past 19 years, I’ve been all about tha underrated. Guess I betta stay that way? My Rating: 2.2


10. Flow Gamble “Fuck A Hook”
>>> Sounds like a regular-soundin’ day in tha life of Flow Gamble, here, on tha 1st verse… Tha beat makes it sound more like it’s for tha club, so it’s like a club vs. real-life vibe, here… “If you my nigga, why tha fuck you neva post my shit!” Oh, I feel that line! Produced and had two tracks where dudes rapped on, as well as made music videos to. Not once did I get a retag, post, etc.; no luv shown! Maybe, next time, they should pay me instead of me payin’ them? Definitely feel dat line; tha struggle’s real! Continuin’ on, tha rest of this aight; feelin’ tha aggression…! My Rating: 3.7


11. Kocaine feat. IamPicasso “Gangsta Gangsta”
>>> Sounds good, on tha hook; good lil’ “gangsta”-soundin’ hook… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s str8… Tha 2nd dude str8, too; a str8 lil’ quick track, here… My Rating: 3.6


12. 225 Slugga “Pop Off”
>>> Hook sounds nice and energetic; luv how it took tha 2nd ½ of tha hook ta let tha energy rise! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and dude sound cool wit tha “dog” parts; throwback-soundin’ rap vibe that I would love! Keepin’ it movin’, dude got tha streetz on lock, here, but fuses tha club vibe very well, as well! Tha 2nd verse sound str8, too. Why he gotta go an auto-tune route, at times, durin’ tha verse? Sounds like it got drowned in tha wrong medicine, smh! My Rating: 3.7


13. Amber Jewelz “Out The Gate”
>>> Sounds like she focused fa tha clubz, here, on tha hook… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and she sounds str8; good shit, I’ll admit… Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ pretty nice. Not really tha kinda shit I’d embrace too much but I’ll give her her props for me not bashin’ anythang about this track. My Rating: 3.7


½time: Mostly decent tracks, this time, with a coupla misses… A 3.3-rated CD, so far; let’s see how we continue…


14. Self 1st Santana “Po Up”
>>> Not feelin’ this a-tuned voice, on tha hook & beat. Durin’ tha 1st verse, it just sounds like random rappin’… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and I’m wonderin’ why I’m bein’ bothered…? Ugh, tha mumblin’!! My Rating: 1.1


15. Giovelli “Ex Pills”
Can we recover…? >>> A lil’ too sing-rap-y fa me, on tha hook. It sounds like they took notes from YoungBoy’s flow, smh. Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds okay; nothin’ special; don’t even sound like it goes wit tha title? Odd that he says, “Be real,” so many times, before tha verse ends. It’s like, B-Real all about dem “pillz” but this ain’t on dat level… Tha 2nd verse sounds like it’s startin’ off annoying; what tha hell wit tha noise sound at 2:06? It’s like their interest fell off fa tha rest of this track; really? My Rating: 1.6


16. DAF x WUE “Unusual”
>>> Looks like it’s startin’ ta become a struggle fa me to recover feelin’ this mixtape, right nah… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s more annoying vocals; beat just sounds like a regular-soundin’ beat? What happened to tha Louisiana sound I was used ta hearin’? No comment on tha 1st verse, here; seems so long fa 3:16! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and I don’t have no comment, neither… “I’m in my bag like I’m some groceries;” ugh… Still 1:01 left? Why…? A 3rd verse, here—3rd!! No comment; just so much braggin’! “………walkin’ like Bambi…;” somethin’-somethin’… Like, whaaaaaaaaaaaat…?!? First, we got “groceries!” Now, we get “Bambi?!” My Rating: 1.2


17. 2.0 “Stupid”
>>> A lil’ betta, wit this hook/beat/vibe… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s str8; just a lotta rappin’ that just sounds like random shit? Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and my interest goin’ downhill. I’ono, I can’t feel this as much as otha club bangaz on these mixtapes… My Rating: 2.4


18. Miss Portia “It’s Gon Cost You (NOLA Remix)”
Don’t forget that apostrophe in “Its!” >>> Glad “it’s” on a bounce level, here, at least…! An okay-soundin’ remix, here; rememba: I still gotta recover my interest fa this mixtape. Tha singin’ sounds okay; I’d rather that rap that repeats/slams in yo face fa dis bounce shit, tho. Not much after; ehh, guess we gotta move on…? My Rating: 2.9


19. Dame Cain feat. Karter With Tha K “Sit Up”
That’s a funny name fa tha featured artist… >>> A lil’ betta than tha bounce remix I just heard; sounds good wit this hook. Hearin’ tha 1st verse & I ain’t thank this Karter was a chick. Sounds like an okay verse; glad she on a club tip, gettin’ “ratchet wit it.” Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here & Cain soundin’ like he got tha world by tha ballz, here—I mean, club, not world… Sounds good, mainly; I’ll give it props… My Rating: 3.7


20. Beatking feat. Furly “Infruname”
Furly on tha feature; let’s see if we get a bounced-up vibe? >>> Sounds like a good/hyped-up hook, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it cool from Furly; she keep shit on lock, despite it not bein’ a 100% bounce beat. I still like tha sounds goin’ on throughout tha verse; interestin’… Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha Beatking on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit his club-type shit. “Drug you like Cardi B,” huh? Oh, “Cardi…” “I want some head like dreadlocks,” huh? Good shit…! Ugh, that word! “Boujee!” That “J”! I rather shmoke one than see it in “Boujee,” lol! My Rating: 3.8


21.
No #21? Gonna have to not count it… My Rating: N/A


22. Box & Level “Too Much”
I got ta meet Box earlier this year, on February 28 (night of February 27):
Excitin’; he spotted me in da club! Now, let’s see tha excitement, here! >>> Finally, back ta normal!! Sounds great wit Level depectin’ tha “Too Much”-type hook! Can’t have “Too Much” Level! Good shit on tha 1st verse, too, Lev! “Shout out ta Mouse that’s my muthafuckin’ roll dog!” I really wanna link up wit tha both of ‘em (Mouse & Level)! Gotta make it a future opportunity! I have Box’s # so I may have a chance? Next trip? Keepin’ it goin’ wit Box on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit dat good shit; glad he holdin’ it down as a ‘70s baby in his ‘40s, almost a decade older than me! Gotta keep it movin’! Glad he feels tha vibe! My Rating: 4.4


23. Gutta Soulja “Better Chill”
>>> Dude sounds good on tha hyped-up hook, here, on this beat… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds good, too; gotta luv tha hype! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse and it cool, too; good shit! My Rating: 4.1


24. Mona Lysa “Boss Shyt”
Got tha “Final” in tha ID, here… >>> Sounds like she got some good, consistent rhymes ta offer fa da club, here? Good lil’ 1st verse; I’m feelin’ her consistency… Feelin’ her “raw” shit, as well as tha hook, toward tha end… My Rating: 4.0


25. Bukk Fastgame feat. Bezo Luciano “Drip”
I rememba seein’ a video of this wit, of course, flashin’ money… >>> Sounds good wit tha “Drip” shit goin’ on, throughout tha hook. Hearin’ tha 1st verse from Fastgame and it sounds good; I’ll give it props, despite bein’ hit by tha “money!” Got Bezo on tha 2nd verse and, of course, he reaches for tha “money” so fast…! Luv how he pulls success outta himself, all tha time. Glad he got that kinda success; glad he luv tha “Drip!” My Rating: 4.1


26.
No #26… My Rating: N/A


27. Symore Banks “UGQ”
>>> Endin’ wit a chick, here… Beat’s basic & her rhymes are ehh; kinda bored, here… Hook sounds like a Z-Ro sample or somethin’… Just ends wit tha long hook. I feel like tha hook’s tha best outta this one but not too much interest, regardless. My Rating: 2.5


Overall: Wow, this was unda an hour? Either way, this might be tha weakest outta tha compilations I reviewed. There were no 4.6+’s and most of tha tracks didn’t really give me a good vibe. Shout out ta Box & Level for makin’ a stellar appearance! Couldn’t imagine what my #1 woulda been if it wasn’t for them! Either way, glad you appreciate my time; hope you appreciate all of it! Hope to review Vol. 2, one day & hopefully, on my next trip down, we’ll link up/I’ll make it down on a club night!

Review #1,811: DJ Tremon "Hottest In The City 5"

Reviewed on 8.15.2019 (Review #1,811)


Slept like shit wit my annoying back but I’m back for more reviewz! Here we go: DJ Tremon Hottest In The City 5; resumin’ from yesterday’s birthday celebration! Also, these Hottest In The City releases, startin’ wit this one, will be from this year. Start Time: 7:23 AM | End Time: 8:34 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!

© 2019 CD Review (Review #1,811) reviewed on 8.15.2019 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. O.U. Bird “Baton Rouge Shit”
That’s what I like to see! Will it be what I like to hear? >>> Sounds good; sounds more like it’s on some street “shit,” here. Likin’ those BR hood shout outs; good 1st verse… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s cool; I remember when Jigga City Dae~Dae & Tha G.T. had their “BR Shit” track, nine years ago. Now, here we are & err-body still holdin’ it down in some type of way. Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse; this iz soundin’ nice. Definitely feelin’ what dude spittin’; makes me 100% get in a “Baton Rouge” perspective! You know! About tha “AIDS” shit, that’s true; I think too many pop they kidz unexpectedly. Take it from my grandma: She had her kidz all in even-numbered years, planned! Also, nice “R.I.P.” parts, toward tha end. Don’t forget Handy, Big Markee & Big Fancy! Legendz! My Rating: 4.3


02. Jaye London feat. Tron “No Hook”
>>> Sounds good from tha beginning ta instantly goin’ inta tha 1st verse. Dude (Tron) on tha 1st verse sounds a lil’ like a Spitta, sometimes, wit tha flow. I’ll give him his props fa some of these rhymes; keep ‘em goin’… Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 2nd verse and I’m feelin’ how Jaye comin’ through, strictly wit dat BR shit! Consistency toward tha end of tha verse, too; dude know what it iz wit dis gangsta shit! 225! My Rating: 4.0


03. Beezy K “Receive”
>>> Wasn’t sure what ta expect wit tha voice but this prolly sounds cool durin’ your undaground sets. Hearin’ tha 1st verse and he sound aight; sounds like YFN Lucci, without tha whiny flow. I agree about tha “loyalty” shit, toward tha end of tha 1st verse. Ironically, someone else with a “Beezy” in they name (not Whop but some1 not really known) changed on me, last year. It was ova blowin’ a red light wit my rental car, in Louisiana; I got tha ticket, smh! I paid tha charge; they agreed to pay & blew me off. Smh, instant change, afta nine years! “Loyalty” fucked up, these dayz! With that bein’ said, keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 2nd verse and it’s cool; good consistency, once again…! My Rating: 3.9


04. NBA YoungBoy “Big Talk”
>>> 1st Verse: Just rhymes, here, iz what it sounds like ta me… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s short and whateva, I guess? Tha 2nd verse sound consistent; guess I’ll be nice ta this? My Rating: 3.8


05. Jay Lewis feat. BBE AJ “2 Loaded”
>>> Sounds dope! “Neva sober, 2 loaded!” Also, durin’ tha hook, I’m definitely diggin’ tha 2nd ½ of tha hook, where tha title repeats! That’s that pure shit! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and this shit official, as far as tha “loaded!” Can I say that I’m embarrassed ta be clean fa tha past 28 dayz? Smh, 3rd time this year! Can’t wait fa my shake back!! Got tha 2nd verse goin’ on and it continues ta be nice and “loaded!” Gotta be as “loaded” as possible!! My Rating: 4.5


06. Johnny Hu$tle “Bald Head Hoes”
Lol @ this title from Hu$tle…! >>> Sounds great fa tha start/1st verse & that lil’ sample wit tha title part! Good shit, here; glad he keep it goin’! Can’t wait ta collaborate wit him in tha future! I just wish I can get my shit 2gether & money right, once again…! Gotta dig that hook, tho; what else can I say? Good shit comin’ out tha 2nd verse, too; keep it comin’! My Rating: 4.6


07. Bolo “Regular”
>>> Sounds good wit this production—oh wait, I know this one from tha 3rd mixtape! A repeat song, Tremon? Still good & ironic that I said it sounded like a Johnny Hu$tle, right afta Hu$tle on here! My Current Rating: 4.0


08. NBA YoungBoy “I Came Thru”
>>> This one sounds a lil’ more normal than usual tracks by him. Despite still bein’ a guilty pleasure, I’ll give him his props fa tha sing-rappin’. If he was an unknown dude, I would prolly appreciate this more. My Rating: 4.1


09. Fredo Bang feat. Kevin Gates “Oouuh (Remix)”
Tha correct spellin’: “Oouuh”, instead of “Ouuhhh”, accordin’ ta what I’ve seen. But yeah, stealin’ tha show, again? Prolly woulda thought bein’ a guilty pleasure but yeah, I rememba this from my 5th Louisiana trip, as well as BET Jams! Gave it a listen while fulla dem edibles & thought it sounded pure! Production’s on point, as well as how Fredo comes through on dis! Pure catchiness, as well as how Gates adds flava to this remix! All you need iz eight barz ta make it sound betta! I’ll admit: Fredo make me proud of bein’ a 31-year-old, tho I haven’t enjoyed any success at this age, yet, smh! My Current Rating: 5.0


10. Kocaine “Swimming Lessons”
>>> This went by quick and was good; beat on point & rhymes, too… My Rating: 3.7


11. Arthentic “ASAP”
>>> Despite tha 1st track I heard of them bein’ a 1.0 skip, tha 2nd one was betta & this kinda goes wit tha betta vibe. Sounds catchy wit tha hook spellin’ tha “A-S-A-P,” as well as sayin’, “ASAP,” as well. Tha 1st verse cool wit tha singin’; I’ll give it its props. Tha 2nd verse’s str8, too; good blend wit all these tracks, too. My Rating: 3.7


12. Rocky Mountainz “I Am Dope”
>>> I feel tha consistency, durin’ tha 1st verse; I’ono about “Top 2,” tho, as he previously said. Hu$tle & “Oouuh (Remix)” pretty-much have those spots on lock, right nah, bein’ tough ta beat! Hearin’ tha hook and it cool; beat a lil’ dry, at times, it seems like… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and tha beat has some mo life to it, at least… My Rating: 3.5


13. Lil’ K “I’m OK”
>>> Damn! Do I jinx it when I think in my head, “Wow, no shitty songs! We’re gettin’ betta!” Then, tha auto-tune/mumble shit strikes! I won’t skip it, so fast; wanna see what else I can get outta dis… Yeah, totally on tha same bullshit you hear on tha radio/everywhere, these dayz! I think to myself, “How do these dudes turn females on wit their bullshit like dis?!” Like, they make kidz so easily?? Have to be honest! Tha rest of this iz just braggin’; too slow fa this mixtape vibe, too! My Rating: 1.1


14. Nicole Monionno “Sauced Up”
Here’s this chick again… >>> It’s str8; nothin’ too special but not wack, like tha auto-tune/mumble shit I just heard on here. Tha rest of this kinda boring fa me… My Rating: 2.7


15. Mack Tony “Way Outta Here”
>>> Sounds like a Drake production/track, so far… I like how he said, “Bwoy,” or whateva he said, toward tha end of tha intro…! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and he strictly wit “1000 Ent.,” here (Tremon said it, too, in tha intro). Tha hook sound str8; sound like he ready fa “2K19.” Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it str8; sound like his voice/flow a lil’ quiet, at times… My Rating: 3.6


½time: Got a 3.8-rated CD, so far; feelin’ most of tha tracks! I thank this might be tha best release, so far! We’ll see if it can hold up, tho…


16. Beezy KKK “KKK Shit”
From three “K”s to only one? >>> I’ono if I’ll feel this one like tha previous track of his on here. This more like a YoungBoy rappin’ style; cool real-life rhymes but kinda yada-yada wit tha continuous rappin’. My Rating: 3.2


17. L. Franchise “Nice Things”
>>> Sounds like an okay club banga, based off tha hook/beat, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds like dude on a mission fa tha “nice thangz.” I thank it str8; not gonna say much else… Tha 2nd verse has some cool, catchy rhymes goin’ on, here; good shit. I have to say, Tremon, you got tha mixtape compilations on lock! When I have doubts of how tha undaground gon continue, here you come; you fuck wit a lotta people! My Rating: 3.4


18. Geno “While You Jig”
Oh, this again, lol! From tha 4th edition! My Current Rating: 4.2


19. Tyler Dion “I Smoke”
>>> Sounds like a good lil’ southern rap track, here; good 1st verse. Hearin’ tha hook and it’s cool; I like how he admits to smokin’ “weed.” It seems like tha admittin’ makes tha track nice; who don’t like bud?!? Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and he keepin’ it goin’. Lol, “Work was kinda slow;” neva seems so “slow” while I was leadin’. It always seemed like a short-handed, mad house! My Rating: 3.6


20. Rocky Mountainz feat. Jay Dexter “Trap-A-Rella”
>>> Sounds like heavy bass, here; a decent hook sung about tha “trap,” here. Hearin’ tha 1st verse and tha singin’ cool, here; I fucks wit it… Tha rest of this sounds good fa a singin’ track; seemed kinda short or did it just breeze by? My Rating: 3.7


21. Adam Dollars feat. WNC Whop Bezzy “Go With The Move”
>>> Sounds nice and energetic, on tha hook. Tha beat sounds cool; almost sounds like it samples Jigga City throwbacks like “Watch My Shoes”, in tha sounds! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s cool; this Dollars Adam sound good, despite his “Dollars” name. Glad Whop brings tha energy on tha 2nd verse, here; good shit! Consistency at its finest! Oh yeah, can’t forget about my 29th birthday…
Had no idea who he was but I met him at tha Bella Noche! Good ole Whop Bezzy! My Rating: 4.2


22. 2K Babies “Bend Over”
Oh boy, tha 2000’s have struck? >>> Luckily, this hyped-up and definitely nice! Glad these teens got it on lock; gotta luv tha beat at :37! Luv when it continuously slams! Tha hook good wit tha bendin’; nice lil’ sample… Tha 2nd verse’s soundin’ good wit tha energy brought to tha table, here (or should I say, track)! My Rating: 4.0


23. Jade Delvalle “The Red Song”
>>> Almost thought it was Hu$tle in tha beginning… Sounded like a good hook but lemme see if I can get adjusted ta dis female, on tha 1st verse… Ehh, it’s okay but not really 100% my shit; same thing goes fa tha 2nd verse… Not gonna call it shitty but it iz what it iz. My Rating: 2.9


24. JT “I’m With Dat”
>>> Sounds like a good hook and beat; let’s see how this gon continue… Hearin’ tha verse and dude sound motivated. My Rating: 3.6


25. O.U. Bird “Get That Bag”
>>> Sounds like a slower street vibe, here; good lil’ 1st verse goin’ on, too. Tha 2nd verse sound goods, too, as well as tha hook; good shit/good motivation. I must admit: Tha hook’s kinda a tease to people, tho, but that’s how this flashin’ generation lives, I guess? My Rating: 3.5


26. Dreco Street “Bag”
Anotha “Bag” track… >>> Sounds like a good lil’ 1st verse; kinda on tha same level as tha otha “Bag” song I just heard… Hook aight; not really inta tha “gettin’ money” shit, tho. Tha 2nd verse ain’t bad, as well; it iz what it iz, I guess? My Rating: 3.3


27. Shane Lyric feat. Famous “I Gotta Eat”
>>> An okay hook; beat doesn’t really sound like it on a Louisiana tip, tho. Hearin’ tha 1st verse and tha rhymes are comin’ out like bullets, it seems like? Tha 2nd verse just regular rappin’; not connectin’ well wit this but it’s str8, I guess? My Rating: 3.0


28. NBA YoungBoy “Valuable Pain”
>>> Sad he don’t know nothin’ ‘bout “no Jodeci,” smh; too young? Sounds like he tryin’ too hard wit tryna be catchy. Tha sing-rappin’ can be catchy but why tha hell he tryna rap 2382394824978943849 words in one line, durin’ tha 2nd verse?? My Rating: 2.8


29. Beezy KKK “Umbrella”
Here comes triple “K”… >>> Regular street-soundin’, Rouge shit, here… Tha 1st verse ain’t bad; tha hook goes with it, too. Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it str8; not connectin’ wit this one too well, as well… My Rating: 2.6


30. Joe Picasso feat. Kocaine “Problems In My City”
>>> Sounds slightly catchy, on tha hook; a decent lil’ track, as far as tha hook/beat go… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it aight, here… Tha 2nd verse sound like it not really for me or this mixtape vibe; not really inta tha depressin’-soundin’ rhymes… My Rating: 2.1


31. Glover Music Records “Ghetto Symphony”
>>> Sample in tha background of this beat, here… Hearin’ tha rappin’ and it good fa an endin’ track, I guess? Just rappin’, rappin’, rappin’… Nicole on tha 3rd part and she adds a unique lil’ twist to what y’all providin’… Just okay fa me but I’ll give it its props… Tha 4th dude sound good; don’t keep tha “lil’ ones” too hungry… My Rating: 3.1


Overall: Ironic dat I just ended this review at 8:34 AM—you’re born in August & you’re now 34! Also, today’s Nipsey Hu$$le’s birthday, so it’s like I’m celebratin’ his birthday wit yours! Gonna continue celebratin’ afta I handle a few thangz & get back ta reviewin’ Vol. 6 a lil’ later. Fa now, I thought tha 1st ½ of this mixtape was pretty nice. Tha 2nd ½ started gettin’ on a decent/shitty level, unfortunately. Either way, as long as I have some impression, that’s a plus?
