Got
anotha review today! This one, courtesy of No Limit Records & Priority
Records, I have Soulja Slim Give It 2 ‘Em Raw, released in 1998!
Let’s get it! Startin’ it at Debbery birthday time! Shout out to Zippin’ Zindle
for tha return, yesterday!! Start Time:
6:23 PM | End Time: 7:38 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 and hoes (which I consider ‘typical’
topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

“From What I Was Told”
Carlos
Stephens doin’ this production… >>> Feelin’ tha upbeat vibe, here…
Hearin’ tha 1st verse and you got shit on lock, here, wit that
gutta, street shit; dope shit… Consistent rappin’; can’t deny it at all times! Nice job wit tha hook, too!
And, you were “like tha World Trade,” while it was still standin’; that’s our
Soulja! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s pretty nice; still diggin’
tha consistent rhymes! Crazy how you say, “And, I’mma blow like tha World
Trade.” It’s almost like you predicted tha future fa three years later! No
wonder why you a legend! Tha ones that die early are tha ones that predict our
future! Crazy! Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and it’s pretty dope, still!
Tha consistent rhymes don’t stop! Can’t wait ta hear tha rest of this CD, ya
heard me?! Went all tha way to tha
end by shuttin’ “tha studio door!” My Rating: 4.8

“Street Life” shit, here, and it ain’t bad wit tha singin’ from O’Dell… Hearin’
tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ nice, here, from you… Hearin’ tha 2nd
verse and it’s not bad from Silkk, here; just a decent verse… I’m glad he “wear
Girbauds & Polo,” tho… Still, Soulja, you’re way betta than this Silkk
verse, here! And, here comes P on tha 3rd verse, soundin’ nice… Glad
his voice/flow’s contributin’ to tha track ‘cause it’s nice! My Rating: 4.2

sounds nice fa a life-livin’ Slim, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s pretty
catchy; definitely feelin’ tha “roam” shit you spittin’ in tha hook… Hearin’
tha 2nd verse and it’s soundin’ nice, too, consistently bringin’ tha
heat, like tha “gat!” Holy, maybe,
tha best start to a verse eva?!? Tha 3rd verse begins
with, “It’s tha
S-to-tha-E-to-tha-R-to-tha-V-to-tha-O-to-tha-N-to-tha-T-to-tha-R-to-tha-U-to-tha-N-to-tha-I-to-tha-G-to-tha-K-to-tha-A;”

beginning!! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s nice from you, as you rap
off this eerie-ass beat! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd verse, here,
strictly required ta continue ta hold it down in a nice way! Thinkin’ ‘bout tha hook, it reminds me of B.G. from 2004
wit “I Want It”; no wonder where he got dat from… He was payin’ tribute ta you
and now, I see it… Needless to say, hearin’ Mia on tha 3rd verse,
here, comin’ through wit some catchy shit, too; can’t complain… Lol @ her
“Gimme, huh bruh” part; good shit… My

of Soulja Slim, here, seein’ what you

1st verse and it’s pretty nice wit how you comin’ through on this

15.
“Get High With Me” feat. Mystikal & Tre-Nitty
Carlos,

sounds aight; nothin’ special, despite tha “high” content… Hearin’ you on tha 1st
verse and there’s not much goin’ on wit this laidback vibe, on tha flow… And,
Tre on tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ betta wit his faster-soundin’
