Review #478: One-i "Da Re-Runs Vol. 1"

Reviewed on 5.27.2010 (Review #478)




Time for my 4th review for today… This one’s comin’ from One-i and it’s called “Da Re-Runs Vol. 1” as he’s teamin’ up wit DJ Scrap, who’s doin’ tha mixin’! Start Time: 6:24 PM | End Time: 7:07 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) so 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”
Let’s see how this iz mixed together ta start it off… >>> You and your laughs, lol… You’re rappin’ here on dis “Here I Go” beat so let’s see how good it sounds… Once again, killa rhymes right chea wit gr8 punchlines too! I like tha “PERIOD!! Like tha end of a sentence” part; you KNOW when shit goes hard!! Of course, if this whole mixtape sounds like dis, then it’s DEFINITELY gon be REAL, REAL HOT!! No wonder why you have SO many mixtapes: “Droppin’ mixtapes at tha 1st of tha month;” DEFINITELY HOT!! You KNOW I gon review everyone!! I hear “I’m Sick Wit It” comin’ up next…! My Rating: 4.5


02. “Sick Wit It (Scrap Rerun)” Feat. Savage & Lil’ Cali
Oh, it’s a lil’ remix here; let’s see what we got here! >>> Ooh, good that it’s still on tha “Here I Go” beat. Clean version I see here… I thought Savage said, “ass,” in tha hook but I guess he said, “ask,” so I gotta fix dat on my radio edit… Now, at ‘round :49, it went back to tha original version. LOL, and it also transformed into a dirty version too, lol! Still sounds gr8 wit err-thang goin’ on! Once again, this (and “Ric Flair”) have like tha record for most appearances on mixtapes, lol! You know what I already said about this song so if you wanna see it again, check one of tha mixtapes it appeared on, lol. My Rating: 4.7


03. “Knock Off Ya Block” Feat. Lil’ Witness & Jayroc
You didn’t list tha features on tha last song… Anyway, looks like this’ll be REAL, REAL TIGHT!!! >>> Ooh, tha REAL HOT producers (still don’t know who they are) on tha beat here!!! Tha beat sounds REAL TIGHT and tha hook’s DEFINITELY raw wit tha title!! You’re on tha 1st verse here and you’re REALLY holdin’ it down right chea; gutta shit to tha bone!! Nice job wit this Ludacris sample in tha hook, ya dig! Now, it’s tha 2nd verse, Lil’ Witness. I gon flip tha ID since Witness’s 1st here. You KNOW Witness’ll be REAL TIGHT when he comes out wit a new CD ‘cause he just REALLY A+ wit tha shit he be spittin’ EVERYTIME he hops onto a track!! DEFINITELY good appearance right chea!!! It’s STREET/LYRICAL shit at its finest!! LOL, speakin’ of tha fast-ass rappin’, Jayroc’s on tha 3rd verse here, doin’ tha damn thang to tha fullest!! Luvin’ all this content right chea; just TOO crazy!!! My Rating: 4.9


04. “Make A Move” Feat. The Fam
Who are The Fam, lol? >>> Sounds like a cool beat start here and tha length’s 4:32 so you KNOW this iz official! Tha hook’s good; nice shit right chea, One-i! You have tha title on lock right chea wit this HOT-ASS production once again!! Lil’ Witness must be a part of The Fam ‘cause he on tha 1st verse right chea! DEFINITELY “stayin’ on tha prize” right chea; TRILL-ASS SHIT!!! Tha 2nd verse iz now here and it’s you, One-i, DEFINITELY “reppin’ tha hometown!” You also “’bout your green like a vegetable!” Nice shit right chea and I believe Jayroc’s on tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse right chea; good-ass shit wit dat dude about tha “choppa” shit! Ooh, a “shiiiit” part. I dunno if dat was Jayroc (kinda sounded like either him or Pigg); DEFINITELY nice though!! There’s room for a 3rd verse here so let’s see what we got… Whoa, where’d dat voice come from? LOL, DEFINITELY gutta here!! This DEFINITELY iz Pigg right chea (Jayroc was before)!! Total GRIMY-ASS shit right chea to tha fullest!!! My Rating: 4.8


05. “My Resume” Feat. Prince Blakk
You have a DEFINITELY TIGHT “resume” right chea wit all these mixtapes, ya dig!! Let’s see how this one gon sound… >>> Oh, not a Prince Blakk production; it’s just a jacked beat from tha old dayz. Tha hook sounds good wit Prince Blakk on it; he doin’ his thang wit tha singin’ here. You KNOW tha streetz must luv dis!! Let’s see tha 1st verse here from you, One-i! Yea, “bring ‘em up to speed!” Feelin’ fresh right chea on tha 1st verse; good shit, One-i! Now, tha 2nd verse iz here, wit you continuin’ ta do tha damn thang! “Carter Boy said, ‘you changed’?” If dat’s so, I feel like yes, but in a REAL GR8 way ‘cause these mixtapes are REAL consistent, ESPECIALLY dis one!! My Rating: 4.4


06. “Déjà Vu Flow”
Let’s see what this’ll be like… >>> For some reason, I thought it was gonna be weird ta hear tha Beyoncé/Jay-Z beat from ’06 but we’re keepin’ it Late 90’s here wit tha Lord Tariq/Peter Gunz beat… You sound good on tha hook; nice job “flowin’” on this shit to tha fullest! You have good rappin’ in tha 1st verse here; nice job representin’ here! You’re easily tha hardest-workin’ white rapper out now! GR8 punchlines here wit a REAL nice flow!! My Rating: 4.3


07. “Foe Life”
Again, what’ll this one be like… >>> Sounds like anotha old beat here… Anotha short length of 2:38 so let’s see how you’ll come through on dis… Tha rappin’s good here; feels very consistent wit tha listenin’ ‘cause of how gr8 your rappin’ brings attention! All tha shit after 1:30 sounds REAL HOT wit tha “and-ish”-type of words dat rhyme together! “Spit dope str8 for tha addicts;” crazy One-i right chea!! My Rating: 4.3


½time: Wow, you REALLY on a roll right chea!! A WHOPPIN’ 4.6 iz tha average CD rating right chea and you REALLY tearin’ shit up!!! Tha rappin’s TOO good here wit what you doin’!!!


08. “One-i, Homie”
This looks like an interestin’ title so let’s see what’s good! >>> Anotha oldie on tha beat here as you’re “in tha studio, fillin’ up tha loose-leaf!” Glad you keepin’ this shit goin’ here, Mr. “Hulk Hogan,” lol! Once again, you held this whole beat down!! My Rating: 4.1


09. “Pain In My Life”
Oh no, I think this iz where it’s gonna go down a lil’ bit… >>> Ahh @ this beat from ‘06/’07… You’re not bad on it though as you have an interestin’ voice ta hold it down; you’re not cryin’ or anything! Good rappin’ but this beat makes it less interestin’ for me, unfortunately. My Rating: 3.6


10. “Sky’s The Limit”
…And this too… >>> Okay, I thought it was sader but I’m glad we’re back to tha 90’s beats as far as this mixtape goes… LOL @ tha “get up off my penis” part; sounded like it came outta nowhere. You sound good here once again on tha rappin’, so thumbs up. Tha hook sounds good; it’s advice. Tha 2nd verse iz true: “You want tha respect” and “you graduated;” you do “deserve somethin’” though, ya dig. As long as you keep rappin’, you gon keep havin’ these reviewz and all dat good shit, ya dig! My Rating: 3.9


11. “One More Chance Flow”
I know what this gon be like; let’s see how you hold it down. >>> Some of these beats are gettin’ a lil’ on tha Pop-Rap side… Good rappin’ once again; thumbs up to your consistentness! Real interestin’ wit what you’re spittin’ here; Non-Stop-i you are, lol!! My Rating: 4.1


12. “Not Ready” Feat. Pigg
Yes, a Pigg feature; let’s see here!! >>> Sounds like either an Eminem old beat or dat intro beat to Jay-Z & Beyoncé’s “’03 Bonnie & Clyde” beat. Then again, I know EXACTLY what this beat iz; just give me a few minutes… Anyway, good start and Pigg’s on tha 1st verse here, doin’ his thang to tha fullest! Gotta feel how he comes through on this shit to tha fullest!! This beat DEFINITELY sounds like 2001 Fabolous or somethin’; I definitely know it’s Fab… Had ta’ve been a Hot 97 exclusive or somethin’… Tha hook sounds good; almost sounded like an original beat tha 1st second I heard it, ya dig. You’re on tha 2nd verse here, One-i, and you cool wit your rappin’ to tha fullest! I like these “where you found tha beats” parts before tha verses end! My Rating: 4.3


13. “What It Be Like” Feat. The Fam
Yes, The Fam’s back! Let’s see what y’all have ta offer! >>> This sounds familiar too… I don’t think I know dis one though. You’re on tha 1st verse and you sound good wit dis shit right chea; good street shit to tha fullest! You tough when you rap so you KNOW people won’t fuck you ova, ya dig! REALLY lookin’ forward to tha 2nd verse so let’s REALLY see what’s good wit it…!! It’s Lil’ Witness; JACKPOT!!! REAL GOOD shit from him once again; he just TOO crazy wit tha rhymes!! On tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse, it’s Jayroc, doin’ a nice job for those dat LUV ta “smoke dro,” ya dig! My Rating: 4.6


14. “Short Circuit” (SlugOne Feat. JSinn & One-i)
Looks like this gon be a GR8 bonus!! Dat’s cool dat this SlugOne dude has a “1” in his name and you have an “I”; they’re nearly alike when it comes ta what they look like, lol! >>> WHAT A RAW START!!! This iz DEFINITELY HOT for tha ending track!!! “Killin’ verses;” DEFINITELY gon be correct!!! Startin’ off tha 1st verse here iz dat boy JSinn; he sounds pretty gutta on this shit! He sounds like he a white dude too dat’s doin’ tha damn thang here!! “One by one, we feed ‘em;” dumb shit! I felt tha 1st verse right there; nice job from tha boy JSinn on dis shit right chea!! Let’s see tha 2nd verse… RAWNESS from SlugOne!!! Just as Lil’ Witness has tha CRAZY lyrics wit tha pacing of ‘em, SlugOne’s got tha gutta side of tha lyrics wit a grimy voice!! Now, tha final verse; you, One-i!! Feelin’ how you’re comin’ through on dis shit right chea! Glad you give it a NICE feel like your freestyles and all dat!! My Rating: 4.7


Overall: This DEFINITELY iz your BEST mixtape so far!!! You have a bunch of classic-soundin’ mixtapes, ESPECIALLY when they have like 30+ songs on ‘em!! You DEFINITELY brought a NICE set of rhymes to tha table here as well as your boyz!! Keep up tha gr8 work and you KNOW all your boyz are tha shit too!!

Review #344: One-i & DJ Nick Styles "From The Bottom To The Top"

Reviewed on 12.05.2009 (Review #344)

And I’m back! It’s FrankieThaLuckyDog here and I just finished my final radio show of tha semester…year…AND decade, ya dig! And before I go ta sleep for tha night, I gon do this next review so here it goes: Here goes my review for One-i & DJ Nick Styles From The Bottom To The Top! Start Time: 10:55 PM | End Time: 12:23 AM

Quick Note: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0. Each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself with my ratings!! I don’t care how lyrical you are! As long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it!

© 2009 CD Review by FrankieThaLuckyDog. Other than tha main artist or affiliated people with tha main artist, this review iz to not be used in anyone else’s words!

01. “One-iiiiii”

LOL @ six “i”’s!! Let’s see how this mixtape’ll start off… >>> LOL @ tha “Ain’t I” beat here. I like your intro wit tha “what’s my name, boy?” shit! You sound catchy, although it was skippin’ in tha beginning? :confused Was that tha mixin’? Good job on tha 1^st verse, regardless, and tha hook iz real catchy wit all tha “One-iiiiii,” “One-iiiiii” parts!! Now that I hear tha 2^nd verse, that’s not tha skippin’; it’s tha mixin’. It could’ve sounded betta instead of soundin’ like skippin’… Good start ta this mixtape! My Rating: 4.1

02. “At The Top” Feat. Young Sleep a.k.a. Freaky

Ooh, tha REAL TIGHT Young Sleep dude from tha DJ Scrap CD I just reviewed!! And I forgot ta mention: Why iz there blank spaces wit tha numbers on tha front cover (no artist/titles)? :confused Anyway, DEFINITELY lookin’ forward ta this song; tha title fits tha mixtape name! >>> Sounds like it gon be a long beat intro… Pretty cool although I wasn’t able ta detect who’s beat tag this was… Anotha song wit tha really poundin’ volume quality, lol. Either way, tha hook sounds pretty good. Now, it sounds a lil’ more clearer wit you on tha 1^st verse, doin’ ya thang here! You did a nice job deliverin’ dat 1^st verse and tha hook iz just gr8 fa this song! Here’s Sleep on tha 2^nd verse, soundin’ pretty good on this. He sounded a lot betta on his “Antidope” song from that DJ Scrap mixtape but it was a real good job puttin’ him on a song/givin’ him more exposure! My Rating: 4.2

03. “Grey Goose (Unofficial Remix)” Feat. Allstar, Young Jeezy & Lil’ Wayne

LOL, talk about random songs, this ’05 song comes back all of a sudden, lol! It was one of tha huge undaground songs fa me back in tha day so let’s see what you added to it… >>> Yup, rememba tha old beat here wit its gr8 style! Again, tha quality sounds like it’s blastin’ or somethin’. Almost thought that was you on tha hook but it’s not. Oh, here you are on tha 1^st verse! You spittin’ some catchy rhymes here; glad you mentioned The Offspring’s “Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)” part since you are that title for tha females, ya dig! LMAO @ tha VERY OLD Jeezy verse, when he would have “aye! Yeaaaaaaaaah! Cheaaaaaa! That’s riiiiiiiiiiiiight” ad-libs!! Tha 1^st remix wit Lil’ Wayne hit Music Choice Rap in Early ’06 and only played once. I rememba sayin’ when they promoted tha remix that, “I like Young Jeezy a lot betta than Wayne; what iz Wayne now?” And all of a sudden, Wayne took off a year later. But yea, tha Jeezy part was much betta than Wayne’s part on this. I even forgot what Allstar’s verse originally was but it was prolly gr8 ‘cause it came off of a gr8 DJ Scream mixtape originally in February 2005: Only The Crunk Survive 8 (Hosted by Trillville), tha good ol’ dayz!! My Rating: 4.6

04. “Automatic”

Got a WHP production here so I should “automatically” luv it, lol! >>> Sounds like a pretty catchy hook. Tha 1^st verse iz here and you’re DEFINITELY in your car right now cruisin’! Nice job wit tha cruisin’ lyrics for tha 1^st verse and let’s see how you ride on tha 2^nd verse… Gotta feel tha shit you be sayin’! Your flow iz just so catchy ta where I just keep reviewin’ CDs of yours without gettin’ tired, ya dig! My Rating: 4.1

05. “Hands In The Air” Feat. Jayroc

Because of tha “Grey Goose” resurrection, I thought this was gonna be tha old Mobb Deep song from 2004 but no, it’s a 2009 BreakThru produced song! Let’s see how y’all boyz roll through on this one! >>> Oh, I thought tha previous song was mixin’ at 1^st, but it was just tha beat. My bad fa nearly skippin’ ova tha hook but it did sound catchy. Jayroc iz on tha 1^st verse and it sounds like he havin’ fun, sex style! Great job on tha 1^st verse! Oh, now I hear tha whole hook and it sounds REAL gr8 wit tha “pants hang low” and tha (I think) “blow” part; good shit!! :tu And now, you’re on tha 2^nd verse addin’ some gr8 drugged formulas to tha verse wit your lyrics! :tu Catchy song right here from you and Jayroc! My Rating: 4.3

06. “Duck Boys” (Lil’ Witness Feat. Pigg & One-i)

Ooooooooooooh!!! This gon be a REAL GOOD one!!! I can feel it happenin’!!! >>> Glad ta hear ANOTHA Lil’ Witness song fa today! I feel damned ta miss out on some of his shit earlier in tha year, but at least I’m gettin’ a hold of it now! Witness’s still pretty fast on tha 1^st verse here, but ALWAYS keepin’ dat HOT lyrical content here for tha undaground streetz of tha WHOLE Louisiana!! REAL NICE job (as always) wit tha 1^st verse, Witness!! Pigg’s on tha 2^nd verse and he sounds GR8 on this original beat right here!! Gotta feel when Pigg spits on original beats and iz on songs wit otha people! Doin’ tha damn thang right here on this track; good shit, Pigg! Now, it’s up ta you, One-i, ta continue tha hype! Good job spittin’ tha hot shit fa tha track, One-i! Keep fillin’ up these tracks wit dat heat and it gon keep continuin’!! My Rating: 4.5

07. “Make Tha Trap Say Aye (Unofficial Remix)” Feat. OJ Da Juiceman, Gucci Mane & Rick Ross

LOL @ this again! DatPiff nailed it once again as they removed it from tha folder, smh. Although borderline for this mixtape, it fits GR8 for this mixtape! Too bad they just played tha hook. SMH @ tha quality decreasin’ when One-i came in… I only got ta hear a ½ line from One-i; how fuckin’ pathetic… I’ll give it a good rating ‘cause I always liked tha song, but I would’ve liked ta hear tha whole thing! My Current Rating: 4.4

08. “I’m Sick Wit It” Feat. Savage & Lil’ Cali

:rofl :rofl :rofl !!! !!! !!! :rofl :rofl :rofl THIS SONG AGAIN!!! SHIT YEA!!! I feel like I just keep reviewin’ it SO MANY TIMES ‘cause it’s THAT HOT!!! I feel like I’ll finally increase my current rating for this song a lil’ ‘cause of how many times I hear it!! You KNOW this iz tha shit right here!!! You startin’ off RIGHT AWAY on this pretty good Savage beat! Glad your “pants hangin’ low” ‘cause saggin’ iz somethin’ that WON’T stop, lol! Nothin’ botherin’ you, so you just deliver tha rhymes without tha haterz!! GREAT job right there and Savage doin’ a REAL NICE job on tha hook!! :tu Tha title part sounds REAL nice!! Cali here on tha 2^nd verse, always doin’ a good job on these str8 up hood bangaz!! Catchy shit from him, although tha verse sounded short. I still REALLY felt it, so you KNOW these boyz doin’ tha damn thang!! Shit, there’s a whole minute left; will Savage be on tha 3^rd verse? Nope, you took tha verse, One-i, but I’m glad three verses fit on this right here!! LOL @ your “I’m down bad, that means I’m ‘so whopped’” part; nice reference! :tu Soundin’ betta on this verse than your 1^st verse; great shit here!! My Current Rating: 4.7

½time: This CD sounds like it’s off to a pretty good start!! I like how I keep hearin’ different songs mixed wit songs I heard of. You doin’ tha damn thang as you got an average CD rating of currently 4.4 right now, so keep up tha gr8 work!! :tu

09. “How It’s S’posed To Be” Feat. Lil’ Cali

Ooh, a new joint fa me startin’ off tha 2^nd ½ here… Prince Blakk did tha beat so this should do tha damn thang within its 179 seconds!! >>> Likin’ tha beat start here; this’ll do good! Cali sounds gr8 on tha hook; gr8 hood anthem here! Even on tha 1^st verse, Cali doin’ tha damn thang! Hood shit right here from Cali so I’m glad you brought him on this joint! You should get some of your Gremlins on tha tracks too! One-i, you’re on tha 2^nd verse, doin’ tha damn thang here. LOL @ your “pants hang” part this time, One-i! Tha gurl likes it, lol. My Rating: 4.3

10. “Where The Pillman At (Unofficial Remix)” Feat. Big Poppa & Chosen

LOL, I called it! A gremlin came outta nowhere on tha feature and now, let’s see how much you’ll jiggalate on this one! >>> Still has tha same hook, beginning and err-thang so far. I guess you and Chosen’ll randomly add your two cents in soon. Here you come on tha 2^nd verse, soundin’ good on this fast-paced beat. :tu I like your flow on this too, as you make this shit extra catchy! Here’s Chosen on tha 3^rd verse; he sounds gr8 on this shit! Gotta luv tha faster flow and tha “pilled up/high” type shit here!! My Rating: 4.4

11. “Pop Back” Feat. Jayroc & Box

Anotha Prince Blakk production here! You got Jayroc and Box on tha track wit you so let’s see how good this iz with its gangsta title! >>> Thought tha title was gon be about poppin’ tha glock, but it looks like it more for tha females “poppin’ back” they ass/cooch? Tha beat iz definitely interestin’ here and Jayroc sounds gr8 in tha beginning wit tha hook and 1^st verse! :tu As for tha hook, now, iz it more towards a club banga for tha beat “poppin’ back?” LOL @ my hella confusion! Movin’ on, you’re on tha 2^nd verse and you’re soundin’ like yourself once again. Nice job contributin’ and now, let’s see tha 3^rd verse… I believe it’s Box and it sounds pretty good fa what it iz; flows good wit tha song. My Rating: 4.2

12. “Take Off (Unofficial Remix)” Feat. Young Dro & Yung L.A.

LOL @ this song; let’s see what you did… >>> Sounds different fa some reason. Then again, I may get their songs confused ‘cause they collaborate at different times; I like tha hook a lot. LOL @ Dro and his jiggalatinness of “poppin’ a pill.” LOL, here you come on tha 2^nd verse! It sounds like you really inta rockin’ your “polo” shit here so that’s watz good! L.A. and his “lotto” rhymes durin’ tha 3^rd verse; gotta feel ‘em! My Rating: 4.1

13. “Too Major”

LOL, this one again; thumbs up! It’s Grouch on tha track again (heard him on a different One-i song)! Tha beat sounds like it gon be good!! Shit yea, this iz DEFINITELY watz good!! Tha hook sounds REAL GOOD fa your part, ya dig! Sounds like you’re spittin’ some hot shit in tha 1^st verse here; thumbs up!! Keepin’ this up wit tha 2^nd verse; nothin’ but HOTNESS!! I like how you ended tha verse wit “take a trip to tha Boot!” :tu My Current Rating: 4.4

14. “Goin’ In” (Drake Feat. Lil’ Wayne & Young Jeezy)

This izn’t even a “featurin’ One-i” song? Should I skip? I’m tired… >>> No wonder why it’s a bonus… Wayne’s luvin’ anything that has ta do wit “suckin’,” ROFL!! Well, you gotta pay tha price fa puttin’ this song in this folder; it destroys tha automatic 5* rated CD (since tha past 13 songs were 4.0 or higher rated songs)! :td Not likin’ tha simple Auto-Tune hook and Drake iz just decent on tha 2^nd verse. I don’t have that much interest so my alertness fa what’s goin’ on iz quite low! Young Jeezy sounds weird wit his flow on this one… Bad bonus; get YOURSELF on tha song at least, One-i!! My Rating: 3.3

15. “I’m Feeling Myself” (Wild Yella Feat. Lil’ Polkk)

LOL, more Louisiana style here but what’s up wit these bonuses not havin’ you? My current rating kinda slipped wit this one since I had a 4.6 rating fa this back in tha early part of tha year… It’s still a catchy song wit tha hook, verses and tha whole “and I’m feelin’ myself” parts. I don’t need ta say anything else; this was one of his only songs that sounded real good that came out. Polkk was on tha 2^nd verse; you left him outta tha ID. And as for Young Show, he didn’t make this shortened version. My Current Rating: 4.3

16. “All The Above (Unofficial Remix)” Feat. Maino & T-Pain

I didn’t know there was a 16^th song… Lemme see and LMFAO @ what it iz!! *Checks* Yup, LMFAO for it!! And it no less was a remix wit you on it! You just have tha features reversed; it ‘pose ta be Maino first. Since it’s not in tha DatPiff folder, lemme hear tha 30 second sample it provides… >>> Didn’t even include your part (it only included Maino’s old part). I’ll just randomly rate it then. My Rating: 3.4

Overall: You did a nice job on this mixtape! I’m REAL GLAD my #1 song fa this one was “I’m Sick Wit It” ‘cause it’s DEFINITELY “sick wit it!” Now, lemme go ta sleep! Who knows what tha next review’ll be!!

Review #340: Pigg "If Words Could Kill (The Mixtape)"

Reviewed on 12.04.2009 (Review #340)




Keepin’ this shit goin’, ya dig!! It’s FrankieThaLuckyDog here wit anotha review! I’m on B-Tweezy’s DatPiff page, and I’m tryna review tha CDs in order from oldest ta newest (2009 ones only; tha older ones go in my Louisiana Reviewz Marathon). Tha one that’s up next iz my boy Pigg, who I reviewed two CDs ago today when he was wit One-i on tha Anti-Social mixtape. Now, he’s on his own wit tha If Words Could Kill (The Mixtape). Let’s see how he can do fa me (hopefully dat TIGHT-ASS shit)!! He’s a New Orleans representa, so here goes a 504ful (lol) review fa Pigg If Words Could Kill (The Mixtape) from me!! Start Time: 11:19 PM | End Time: 12:58 AM


Quick Note: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0. Each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself with 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) so 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.

© 2009 CD Review by FrankieThaLuckyDog. Other than tha main artist or affiliated people with tha main artist, this review iz to not be used in anyone else’s words!


01. “Intro”
Looks like you have an intro track too (just like One-i wit his “2 Weeks Notice” intro track)! Let’s see how you hold down a WHOLE entire mixtape by yourself… >>> I thought I have heard this beat before? I don’t even know what it’s called… Oh, you’re my age (although when this really came out [Spring 2009 {I think}], I was 20); that’s watz good. As far as tha rappin’, it’s soundin’ GR8 on this and I’m actually feelin’ tha beat! Nice job on this intro track for a start. My Rating: 3.7


02. “Words Have The Power To Kill”
This iz a powerful title, but iz it powerful enough fa me ta really like? Let’s find out! >>> Tha first few seconds of tha track was kinda iffy for a start ta get used to, but it kicked in wit hi-hats and sounds betta! You sound gr8 wit tha rappin’ and tha flow iz DEFINITELY on tha street level! Nice job wit tha 1st verse and tha hook iz good too; thanx again for all tha “power.” Now, tha 2nd verse iz here and it has nice “hauntin’” lyrics; good job deliverin’ this shit! Nice job wit this song right here; I’m in tha middle wit it but more on an above level. My Rating: 3.9


03. Pigg Speaks
Ooh, a lil’ intermission; let’s see what you got ta say… >>> Good job speakin’ and I’m glad One-i was recordin’ what you was sayin’ for this mixtape! My Rating: N/A


04. “Murder Flow”
Must be a jacked beat song? Let’s see… >>> Sounds like a catchy start goin’ on here. I don’t see it bein’ a jacked beat; it sounds good wit tha beat start, intro and tha hook!! Tha 1st verse sounds gr8 here; gotta luv tha “flow,” ya dig (or should I say, “murder flow,” lol)! Tha 2nd verse sounds like it ‘bout ta be “hot” wit tha “burnin’” lyrics you spittin’; tight shit! It got even MORE GRIMY at 2:40 wit tha gunshots!! My Rating: 4.3


05. “Long Time Coming”
This could be anything; lemme check it out! >>> And iz anything and that anything turned into a Cam’ron/Jaheim “Lord You Know” beat. Sounds like a long intro… Glad you was, “listenin’ ta TLC;” thumbs up! It’s an okay 1st verse but how many rappers am I gonna hear on tha same beats, NO LESS from tha same state? Just wonderin’… Nothin’ really goin’ on in tha hook fa me so no comment on it. Tha 2nd verse sounded betta, but still on a decent level fa me. Oh no, a long 50+ second outro? Not really needed fa a song like this, but I’ll let you do ya thang… I still find it weird that so many people get on this beat here and there; this iz 2004. Plus, I thought this was one random song at tha time, lol. My Rating: 2.9


06. “B.A.R.S. (Better At Rapping Shit)”
LOL @ tha B.A.R.S. acronym! Gotta feel some of these titles! It looks like a Cassidy title so let’s see… >>> Almost sounds like Junior Reid in tha beginning of this song… I don’t know tha beat, but it sounds like a betta start here and tha lyrics are betta fa me ta listen to. Good job holdin’ yaself down on tha 1st verse. LOL, no hook? Now, tha 2nd verse iz soundin’ like a random upcomin’ rapper from tha internet. NOOOO!!! A 50+ second beat outro; you could’ve cut it! My Rating: 3.1


07. “The Best”
Prove it… with this song! >>> Oh no, a vocal sample beat… I like your “on my shit” line; it’ll ALWAYS be remembered from Yung Yola fa me, although wit you, it was Lil’ Cali. Tha rhymes sound MUCH betta once tha 1:00 mark passes; tight shit here! I like your ending to tha song wit describin’ that you’re strivin’ ta be, “tha best,” ya dig! My Rating: 3.8


08. “News Flash”
You mean “News Flash”? >>> LOL, where did dat beat kick-in come from? Now, you’re soundin’ like my boy 1st Degree (anotha upcomin’ rapper outta New Orleans). This iz anotha jacked beat (on tha Diplomats type of style ‘cause once again, I forget tha beat) and it sounds good on your part, but gives me an lol @ times, “lol.” I like tha consistent rappin’ throughout tha whole song, but there has ta be some catchiness. You need ta hit up some original tracks, although I know this iz just a mixtape. My Rating: 3.4


09. “Speak Your Mind”
A lotta short lengths here; anotha unda 2:10 length… >>> Tha beat sounds cool this time. Okay, tha rhymes sound betta here and I can handle ‘em wit this beat! I wish you could make songs outta these tracks instead of just freestyles ‘cause I would like ‘em more. They just seem like really long verses and these 30+ second beat outros ain’t helpin’ either… My Rating: 3.5


10. “My Girl Taaka”
Hope her name iz spelled right; it’s your “girl” so why wouldn’t it be? >>> Oh no, not a really, REALLY slow start? I don’t think it should matter ta me ‘cause this mixtape iz kinda on a slow start… Tha hook iz different too wit tha singin’… Okay and just decent for me. You did pretty good on your 1st verse… I don’t know what ta say about tha 2nd verse… There’s no catchiness at all in tha flow throughout this song… My Rating: 2.7


11. “Don’t Push Me”
Looks like you’re gettin’ tougher fa this mixtape? I HOPE so!! You NEED ta let out some thangz!! >>> Oh no, double sample here wit tha typical, TYPICAL, TYPICAL Pac, “I ain’t no killa but don’t push me,” quote as well as a random vocal sample in tha beat. Kinda a double negative fa me so let’s see how I last wit this one… I seem impressed wit this one. Tha beat sounds MUCH BETTA at :56 wit tha HOT effect it has; makes me like it a lot! Your rappin’ was much betta this time so that’s a plus!! Sounds pretty good on tha 2nd verse too wit what you’re spittin’. Finally, a 3rd verse on this mixtape, lol! It sounds a lil’ betta this time; nice comeback to tha mixtape! My Rating: 3.9


½time: I need a lil’ break so I finna call my boy Hannibal and come right back… *Calls* Real short call, but it’s A LOT betta than NOTHIN’!! 1:21 serves a WHOLE LOT when you fuck wit someone REAL GR8 like Hannibal!! Anyway, back to tha mixtape: It’s off to just an okay start. It seems like there’s a lot goin’ on here fa me ta really judge… Not that much tight songs, a lot of decent songs and some that are just not for me. Who knows how tha remainin’ 11 will be ‘cause tha average CD rating iz only at a 3.5 right now…


12. “Target Practice”
Oh wow, talk about SHIFTIN’ tha ratings!! This one iz a SKY ROCKET rating song, lol!! Once again, anotha HOT Rodney beat!! This iz DEFINITELY HOT!! I like tha hook (sounds like a Weezy sample?) and tha beat iz DEFINITELY one of tha BEST on here!!! You REALLY doin’ tha damn thang on your verse!! Too bad this a 3:00 song. Nice job on tha 1st verse and it even ended so fast, lol. Tha 2nd verse DEFINITELY a RAW verse!!! All tha lyrics go hard and tha beat just iz CRAZY!!! My Current Rating: 4.8


13. “Pushin’”
Oh… *YAWN* … Why these same beats again? I don’t even have ta hear it; I just KNOW! >>> Yup… Anotha random-ass song/beat that just keeps comin’ up on so many fuckin’ mixtapes year afta year fa some reason… Betta rhymes on here than before, but low interest ‘cause of tha jacked beat. Even a 2nd verse fa this; okay, good. My Rating: 3.6


14. “Without A Fight”
???’s are in my head… >>> LOL, talk about random shit. Rocko’s beat for… umm… “This Morning”; I rememba this one. Talk about a while ago and it was only 2 years ago; oh, those GR8 dayz… Tha beginning of my Louisiana connection startin’, not knowin’ like ANYONE but a few people, lol! Beginnin’ was aight and tha rappin’ iz on tha decent level this time too. Finally a catchy hook here, lol! I like how it sounds wit tha title and err-thang! Tha 2nd verse sounded good… LOL @ tha beat reversin’ at tha end of tha 2nd verse; anotha random thing, lol? My Rating: 3.7


15. “It’s Nothing” Feat. One-i
Ooh, anotha rating shifter here wit this song! REAL GLAD you included it here too!! Sounded like an ordinary start, but tha hook REALLY took off!! Now, it’s DEFINITELY not typical; it’s tight!! Gr8 job, One-i!! Pigg, you’re on tha 1st verse! You’re RIPPIN’ UP tha 1st verse!!! One-i iz on tha 2nd verse, and he soundin’ GR8 on this one too!! LOL @ tha beat and how it stopped right before tha 2:00 mark; that was a trick, lol. My Current Rating: 4.5


16. “She Want A Thug”
I’m almost afraid ta see what this gon be… I can picture a jacked beat, but I’m not sure which one… >>> Not tha one I was thinkin’ of, but once again, lemme just complain about tha repetitiveness of people usin’ this STUPID-ASS “Dougie” beat!! UGH!!! I reviewed someone like a week ago and heard this beat; WTF? What’s wit it? No catchiness in tha hook although you sound a lil’ different in tha 1st verse. I like how you finally had put a catchy flow in your song, but this izn’t where I’m at fa likin’! No comment on tha 2nd verse also; we’ll let this one go! My Rating: 2.1


17. “Freestyle (I’mma Do Me)”
Okay, then I WON’T guess tha next beat since you gave it away! >>> Guess you luv your Rocko; glad you do. I wonder when dat dude’ll make a comeback? LOL @ your “erection” part in tha beginning of tha verse ta start off tha freestyle! Tha flow sounds on a gutta tip here so you know it’s a plus! I can’t keep up wit tha freestyle much unless it changes, so I don’t have much extra shit ta say about this… Neva mind, you FINALLY added a hook at 2:08. LOL, did I say “hook?” It was like a few seconds… My Rating: 3.7


18. “Throwed Off” Feat. One-i & Cas
Yea, anotha GR8 one fa this mixtape!! Anotha REAL GOOD beat here!! Hearin’ tha hook and it sounded cool. Gr8 rappin’ from dat boy One-i on tha 1st verse; street shit! Gr8 shit on tha 1st verse, and tha hook goes hard like tha last song! “Oink oink” @ tha 2nd verse, lol (you’re on it)! You sounds like you got a “heart” on this shit right here wit how you’re spittin’! Gr8 shit once again!! I like tha “get cut” line; razor-bladin’ shit right here!! Let’s see what Cas will do on tha 3rd verse… I guess that’s him. When I was hearin’ him on A-Mar & Dyl’s shit, I couldn’t tell between Dyl and him at times, but it’s soundin’ good! All y’all spittin’ street shit, rippin’ these tracks apart!! Glad he “doesn’t ‘get silly’;” thumbs up fa bein’ V.I.C.less! My Current Rating: 4.4


19. “Killa”
A short song… Let’s see how you come through on it… >>> Speakin’ of you quotin’ Bone Crusher on one of tha previous songs, this sounds like him and tha way he sounds on tha sample (sayin’ “killa”). Tha beat and sample iz REAL TIGHT here so this could be anotha REAL GR8 song on this mixtape!! Tha verse had some tight-ass rhymes and there was even a hook that went REAL HARD on this shit; gotta luv when you added your “muthafuckin’” parts, lol! My Rating: 4.4


20. “I Put On”
No preview needed. >>> Why didn’t DatPiff take this outta their folder? There so fuckin’ stupid when they leave shit like this on there but take out random songs. I’m in tha mood ta skip this song wit an instant, but whateva, I’ll suffer. WTF @ tha qualities changin’ from good throughout tha verses ta shitty on tha hook? Not good ta have quality changes. No comment on tha verses; you KNOW I can’t deal wit played out songs like this! My Rating: 1.1


21. Pigg Speaks
Yes, you’re speakin’ again! >>> Tha volume iz so low… Glad you gave a shout out ta Bo National. My Rating: N/A


22. “Outro”
One more song… >>> This iz a jacked beat (I’m sure) and it’s just okay. Rhymes are pretty good on this one verse. I like how you said, “blue black,” on tha verse, as it reminds me of my boy BluBlack outta G-Lane in Baton Rouge! My Rating: 3.5


Overall: At first, I expected this CD ta be extremely lyrical or somethin’. However, it somewhat mixed a lil’ of dat, but was more on tha “jacked beat” side. It was a decent review, but it would’ve been like disaster if it wasn’t for those few songs from tha Anti-Social mixtape bein’ on here. I think you collaborate REALLY WELL wit original productions (e.g., tha Anti-Social mixtape wit One-i)! Try ta stick ta original productions and collaborations! Keep doin’ tha damn thang out in tha N.O.!

It’s ya boy FrankieThaLuckyDog shakin’ back, ya dig. Got a lil’ dizzy and distracted (lol @ those D words, lol) before wit my uncle’s gurlfriend, as we were playin’ games online.

01. “2 Weeks Notice Intro”
Looks like it ain’t just an intro but a song as well!! I KNOW you hold it down (just like you did wit Pigg on tha Anti-Social mixtape I previously reviewed), so you gon do tha damn thang once again as you have dropped BUKU SHIT throughout this year!!! >>> Again a DJ Scrap intro, lol. It sounds like it gon be a pretty good intro here wit tha cool beat, mixin’ and your gr8 rappin’. I like all tha raps you’re spittin’ on this intro here, filterin’ out tha dudes unda your status! LOL @ tha part wit tha “gurl wantin’ ta sit on your sausage!” Gr8 job wit this shit as you just spittin’ to tha fullest!! I like tha ending wit, “I be down in Hammond City where tha gangstaz roll!” My Rating: 4.2


02. “They Watching” Feat. Prince Blakk
You brought Mr. Blakk on tha track here… Let’s see how it rolls on this mixtape. >>> Good beat transition; almost couldn’t tell that it changed. You doin’ ya thang on tha 1st verse here, continuin’ where you left off from tha intro! Blakk sounds good on this hook this time, so thumbs up to tha hook. It sux ta hear about your “100 pills” story in tha beginnin’ of tha 2nd verse; fuckin’ snitches. Pretty good 2nd verse overall too. My Rating: 4.1


03. “Tell The Truth”
Looks like an anti-fake tellin’ song; lookin’ forward! >>> Keepin’ these beats jumpin’ here wit a nice intro as well as you on tha 1st verse doin’ tha damn thang! Sounds like you’re spittin’ cool lyrics about yourself in tha 1st verse; good job. Tha hook iz more on you tellin’ tha truth than anybody bein’ fake. A lil’ on tha simple side but it goes ‘cause it’s you. LOL @ 1:44; it sounded like a Pacman dyin’ sound in tha beat; nice! Tha 2nd verse sounds betta here wit tha lyrics; keep this shit up! My Rating: 4.2


04. “Thinkin’ ‘Bout”
What could you be “thinkin’ ‘bout” on this joint? >>> Tha intro of tha beat sounded a lil’ different, but it’s rollin’ pretty average so far. You spittin’ tha real shit on this one so once again, you get a plus! Tha hook iz a lil’ different since it’s just talkin’…; okay song so far. Tha 2nd verse iz more about you and tha Rap game wit what’s goin’ on; pretty good verse once again. Kinda on tha short side, but it’s okay. My Rating: 3.6


05. “Living It Up”
Looks like you gon have a blast on this joint? Let’s see how excited you are, lol. >>> Much betta beat/soundin’ on this one for a start! Sounds like tha strength based off tha Anti-Social CD!! Great job on tha hook (motivational type) and you’re DEFINITELY ready fa tha 1st verse!! You did ya thang on tha 1st verse and I was right about you soundin’ like you havin’ fun on this track. Nice job wit tha “havin’ fun” hook and gr8 beat! Tha 2nd verse sounded like it went by quick but it was gr8. Ooh, a 2 Toxic production iz comin’ up next! My Rating: 4.3
EDIT: Didn’t notice tha producer credit (Sinema). Thumbs up ta Sinema producin’!!


06. “Want It With Me”
Yup, a 2 Toxic production here; lookin’ forward ta hearin’! >>> Tha hook start sounds betta than tha first few seconds that played at tha end of tha last song. Sounds like catchy lyrics (wit a near Eminem flow here) on tha 1st verse; keep it comin’, One-i! Tha 2nd verse has nothin’ but gr8 lyrics fa this Rap shit, so you know you doin’ ya thang on tha tracks! My Rating: 4.3


07. “Excuse Me” Feat. Pigg & Lil’ Witness
Ooh, ya included this HOT joint on here!! Tha intro sounds good wit Pigg on it. Sounds like this gon be “huge soundin’” like a boulder! Tha hook sounds gr8 wit you on it; sounds like mixin’ in tha hook almost? Either way, it’s DEFINITELY watz good wit tha beat! Nice 2nd verse wit all tha “hella” parts, combin’ wit a “helicopter!” Tha end to tha 2nd verse was RAW wit tha “hospital” part; you a beast, One-i!! Here’s Witness, witnessin’ a REAL TIGHT verse as he spits it on tha 3rd verse!! I like tha early mixin’ at 2:58; REAL GR8 verse right here!! ANOTHA REAL GR8 endin’ to tha verse wit tha whole “battle” thing!! Glad y’all got tha “ending verse” formula of makin’ it standout!! My Current Rating: 4.4


08. “Here Comes Trouble”
LOL @ tha “grouch” Grouch (just kiddin’) producin’ this song! I’m actually lookin’ forward ta hearin’ what he got on tha beat for you! >>> Good beat and gr8 hook start from you; thumbs up! Nice start to tha 1st verse wit tha “pound/bass” part! Nice job wit dat 1st verse and now, hearin’ tha hook for tha 2nd time and it sounds REAL good wit tha beat! Tha rhymes in tha 2nd verse was REAL GOOD this time!! Catchy song right here from dat boy One-i!! My Rating: 4.3


½time: Looks like anotha REAL GR8 start here!! This iz good, but tha ratings are not shiftin’ that much; most of them are next to each otha so tha tracks ride nearly equally. As much as it does, it makes tha average CD rating currently a 4.2, lol! Keep up tha gr8 work on this mixtape!!


09. “As I Am”
This iz tha missin’ track (DatPiff removed it for it havin’ a part from an original or somethin’). Lemme see what this really iz… *Checks* I don’t see anything up wit tha title, so lemme click tha info (in tha folder) on why it’s missin’… *Clicks* Oh, it’s over an Asher Roth beat. Well, DatPiff’ll only let me hear 30 seconds, so let’s see what goes down… >>> This iz a gr8 beat for you ta rap on and you sound gr8 on it! Oh, I see why DatPiff took it off: Towards tha end of tha 30 second sample (like tha last 10 seconds), it’s tha hook to tha Asher Roth song so DatPiff nailed it. Either way, good job on this shit. My Rating: 4.1


10. One-i Speaks
…And now an intermission, lol! Let’s see what you got ta say, my boy! >>> Glad you did this mixtape in “2 weeks;” no wonder its title, lol. My Rating: N/A


11. “I Get It”
Ooh, a Vybe production; this should be FIYA!!! >>> I have ta say, “WOW,” to tha beginning start of tha beat!! Great, long beat intro and tha hook iz here, soundin’ REAL GOOD fa you! DEFINITELY a gr8 anthem here!! Nice job deliverin’ tha 1st verse; nothin’ but dat good shit here, ya dig!! Tha 2nd verse iz also soundin’ gr8 on this shit as you just enjoyin’ tha track wit tha fire you’re spittin’!! Gotta luv Vybe wit tha productions!! I gotta look on my iPod ta see which songs I have dat Vybe produced so it will show up in my iPod’s info! My Rating: 4.5


12. “Game Face” Feat. Lil’ Witness
Shiftin’ ova to a Prince Blakk production here! Lil’ Witness iz on tha feature, so I most DEFINITELY have ta prepare myself wit anticipation here, ya dig!! >>> Sounds like a slower/gr8 beat intro here. Ooh, Witness starts tha song off on tha 1st verse!! Gotta luv his flow; it’s REAL gr8 wit its pace and err-thang!! Tha beat sounds REAL GOOD at :56 wit tha synth!! This iz DEFINITELY sum tight shit fa a slower pace!! This iz a MEGA collaboration wit how it sounds, ya feel me! REAL NICE hook too; DEFINITELY catchy!! Here you are on tha 2nd verse and although it ain’t up ta Witness’s level, you KNOW you gotta spit some of your shit here, ya dig! I like tha, “get folded like a bad hand,” line; good shit! My Rating: 4.6


13. “Heartless” Feat. Jayroc
Finally, a Jayroc feature, lol! I felt like it took a ton of songs ta happen, lol! It should be pretty good so let’s see how y’all do fa only 2:24 on tha length! >>> LOL, wit tha short-ass length, I figured it was tha Kanye West beat. Surprised DatPiff didn’t take this off ‘cause of tha sample here and there, lol. Pretty good rappin’, so I’ll give you tha props. ROFL!!! Tha WHOLE ENTIRE hook iz on here from Kanye West and DatPiff left it!! I rather them leave tha Asher Roth song on here instead; I find it funny! They just seem random; WTF? As far as Jayroc on tha 2nd verse, he’s soundin’ okay/good on his verse. Somewhat fits for this song itself, lol. Also, lol @ tha gr8 cut off before tha original’s bridge part! Tha beat intro to tha next song sounds tight, includin’ how it ended on this! My Rating: 3.8


14. “Grinder” Feat. Big Shane
Ooh, look at this collab!! I wonder how this came about? I know Big Shane wants ta collab wit err-body in Louisiana and I’m sure y’all were glad ta connect!! Let’s see how good it iz!! >>> Whateva this beat iz, it’s pretty good fa this (no producer listed so it could be jacked?). Big Shane sounds good in tha hook! Nice job wit dat and now, it’s you on tha 1st verse. You sound pretty good on this beat so I guess it was meant fa y’all. Glad you, “on yo block like Tetris;” that was a NICE ending line to tha 1st verse, ya dig!! Mr. Shane on tha 2nd verse and he on his grind! He ALWAYS on tha grind, ya dig! Gr8 flow from him, doin’ tha damn thang on this track! Tha next beat comin’ up definitely sounds like a jacked beat, but I think I heard tha very last few seconds’s “sound” before (maybe on tha last CD I reviewed?). Let’s see what it’ll be… My Rating: 4.3


15. “Center Of Attention” Feat. Sire & Prince Blakk
Neva mind, this iz 100% new fa me, includin’ tha 1st time I’m hearin’ Sire on a track!! I talked ta him a lot earlier in tha year on MySpace, but his cell phone neva worked or somethin’ so we currently haven’t talked by phone yet. He really gots luv fa you, ya dig! WHP did tha track, so this should be tha DEFINITE “center of attention,” fa real!! >>> Gr8 start and once tha singin’ came in, I knew it was Prince Blakk right away. Gotta like his “yeah, dawg” singin’ part 2x, lol (sounded gr8 fa singin’)! I’m assumin’ my boy Sire iz on tha 1st verse; sounds gr8 fa this shit! If only I can get sum of his shit that’s out (if any iz out ‘cause I don’t have anything)… REAL GR8 flow on this TIGHT beat, doin’ tha damn thang!! He DEFINITELY gangsta wit it on tha track so you KNOW I got luv fa him all day, ya dig!!! You’re on tha 2nd verse, One-i, and it’s DEFINITELY anotha TIGHT verse right here, ya dig!! Nothin’ but RAW shit bein’ spit here to tha fullest!! Looks like I gon enjoy tha hook ‘til tha very end since it repeated a 2nd time! Sounds like an interestin’ start wit tha rain in tha beginning of tha next song… Ooh, and it’s a Vybe production!! My Rating: 4.6


16. “Puzzle” Feat. Smoke
I wonder who this Smoke dude iz… I thought I saw his name somewhere, but I guess he’s a newbie. Wit a REAL GR8 title here, let’s see how we do wit a 3:00 song wit Vybe on tha track!! >>> Yup, ANOTHA gr8 song based off tha 1st few seconds!! Gotta hit dat boy Vybe up and tell him how GR8 I am!! Oh wow, look at tha HELLA FAST rappin’ from Smoke on tha 1st verse!! REAL GR8 rapid-fire rhymin’ here!!! Nearly sounds like Lil’ Witness at 1st; it’s TOO GR8!!! You’re on tha 2nd verse and you’re much slower on tha rappin’ here. Either way, you sound good fa what you’re doin’ wit this Rap shit so keep all these GR8 tracks comin’!! My Rating: 4.5


17. 2 Weeks Notice Outro
Not a song this time, lol. But, thanx to all those previous songs, tha average CD rating creeped up!! Find out how it did afta I hear this outro!! >>> You DEFINITELY “shakin’ thangz up this year,” ya dig!! My bad fa bein’ SO FAR behind from reviewin’ this! I KNOW I should’ve reviewed this earlier in tha year, but it’s a GR8 time now, ESPECIALLY since I got tha radio show goin’ down fa undaground Louisiana Rap music! Keep up these GR8 mixtapes!!! My Rating: N/A


Overall: Quite ironic… Last time, it was a collaboration mixtape between you and Pigg. Now, tha start and end times of this review were both tha birthdayz of my dad and his wife, lol!! You just CAN’T AVOID ANYTHING that has ta do wit a collaboration One-i, lol!! Keep up tha gr8 work, or should I say me, ‘cause I ‘bout ta review more shit of your’s!! Just like Deal Or No Deal’s on tha “Million Dollar Mission,” I feel like I’m on my “One-i Review Mission,” lol!!
