Review #1,474: Lil' Boxx "HustleVeli: Grind Motivation 101 (Hosted by Big Jay, Pyrex Radio)"

Reviewed on 7.14.2015 (Review #1,474)

Got a long-awaited review I finna do, right now! Pretty exciting day, as I got fulla dat shit with my girl earlier in tha day, so you know today’s on point!! Thought I was gon be nice and high durin’ this review, but tha plug still at work; it all good, though! But anyway, we gon have an exciting review, here! Sponsored by Big Faces Entertainment, I finna review Lil’ Boxx HustleVeli: Grind Motivation 101 (Hosted by Big Jay, Pyrex Radio)! I had been connected with Boxx since March 5, 2009, tha 1^st day I smoked! He’s always been loyal and neva been a bitch, unlike 95% of tha music biz I’ve dealt with! Boxx hasn’t released a mixtape since 2009 and his Bring The Pain Vol. 2: Word Of Mouf disc; a lotta evolution has occurred since! I haven’t had a disc out since 2010, so when I drop mine, you’ll see a ton of evolution! Think: I wasn’t even drivin’ to places on my own, yet! But, until that moment comes, lemme go ‘head and review you! Start Time: 8:26 PM | End Time: 9:44 PM

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

01. “Who I Am”
And, looka! This was what my debut single was called! Glad it’s your opening track to this new CD of yours! Production from someone by tha name of A Wizzle, here! >>> Sounds a lil’ on tha gutta side, here; pretty nice start! Definitely diggin’ this beat, especially when it adds a G-Funk-y sound to it around :42! “CVS… GPS… PBS… see me stress;” real nice!! You really killin’ it with tha rhymes, here!! I love how your voice sounds a lil’ different, here, like you’ve grown! Can’t imagine what mine gon sound like tha next time I record a track! I haven’t recorded a new track since I’ve worked, but I’ve been freestylin’ a lot betta, these dayz! “Sharper than a harpoon;” whoo! Really killin’ it ‘round tha 2:00 mark!! Such consistency at its finest!! Excellent openin’ track, pickin’ up right where we left off witchu!! “Roamin’ like a data plan;” you really killin’ it wit these non-stop rhymes!! “Ah, you know!!” My Rating: 4.7

02. “I’m Back At It”

“Ah, you know;” already!! Jay Beatz doin’ this beat, here; leggo!! >>> Wow, this sounds like a much-betta intro track!! Definitely diggin’ this hook as it reminds me of tha older, great times of Baton Rouge music!! Really feelin’ this hook a whole lot!! You got tha holdin’ tha notes on lock!! And, daaaaaaaaaaaaaaam @ tha 1^st verse; you really on fire!!! So much to devour!!! And, I feel your aggression on tha 2^nd verse; can’t deny it!! Even when you randomly drop a few “money” rhymes or references, these rhymes and this aggression covers it up! Like, I don’t have to stare at tha speakers and be like, “Ugh, ‘money’ shit; boooooorrrringgg!!” You know?! My Rating: 4.8

03. “Errbody Know Me” feat. Lil’ Cali

Seems like a good flashback, right before I lost my cousin to heroin on December 14, 2011 and right around I got robbed $555 for tha 1^st time. I was really obsessed wit Louisiana music at tha time, lol! My own music awards, my own mixtape compilations, my own radio show, ROFL! I had no life! And now, “errbody” I fuck wit in person are, like, 22, and I was 23 at tha time. They have more active in-person lives than I had! But yeah, still pretty hot wit Wodie On The Beat on tha beat! Just like how I said back in 2011, great beat, great aggression, “no introduction” needed & great job collabin’ wit Calitastic! LOL, Cali all obsessed wit “stacks” and shit on his verse. Since this was right before I first got robbed, I let it slide. But, if this came out now, I would’ve prolly been like, “Ahh, ear-bleeding!! No, no, no, Cali!!!,” ha ha! My Current Rating: 4.4

04. “Music Symbols & Dollar Signs”

Oh yeah, this nice one, too! Think I first heard it when I was already hired and its content was not ear-bleeding for me, luckily, lol. Like O did tha track, here! Still sounds like a nice lil’ money anthem for this generation of underground music… Of course, because DJ B-Real blocked me on February 5, 2014, there’s almost no more underground Louisiana adds on my playlist. If this would’ve been a few years older, it would’ve easily been a playlist add. Anotha thing iz no one gives me their music (music if I’m close witchu) or CDs on time, anymore, so it’s not like I want old music on my playlist! It sux that everyone raps about “money,” these dayz. Like, are we shocked that it’s 2015 and someone’s rappin’ about “watch me yuuugh” and all those gay dances from tha jigg dayz with “Watch Me/Nae Nae”? They need to have a jigg resurrection and bury all tha shitty “get money rap” bullshit in a ground fulla piss and asbestos! My Current Rating: 4.3

05. “Nasty” feat. Dre Chatman & Airee Renee

Looks like it could be an okay collaboration? Rich On Da Track doin’ tha track, here… Feels like I only see his name when it’s you or Nu$$ie, even when it’s 2015! >>> No intro needed; an okay hook—sounds betta than some of tha shit out now? Some of tha background vocals throw me off with tha stupid auto-tune and tha “gettin’ to this money” shit’s kinda like, “Why?” Either way, I don’t mind this… I think tha both of them singin’ on tha hook’s a nice way to collab! Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse, here, and it sounds consistent; gotta go all in her! Could imagine when that day’ll be for me? “Errbody” gotta quit this post-ponin’/no-showin’ shit on me, first! Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s nice ta hear with your grown self. However, I thought tha song was about gettin’ “nasty?” Had ta throw anotha “money” rhyme in tha song, Boxx? Hmm… My Rating: 3.7

06. “I Don’t Think”

Let’s see how you randomly “think” of shit on this one, produced by EQ! *EDIT* Damn, 0:00 on tha length? Tha file fucked up… Lemme go see what I can find… *Checks online* Lucky for me, I found a YouTube video! >>> This sounds real nice; luv tha hook! Excellent with how you rap tha hook wit tha beat sounds! Excellent-soundin’ track!! Here you are on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit dat consistency on tha track, once again; gotta luv your rhymes!! “Question my authority or assassinate my character…;” wow, real dope with tha 2^nd verse, here!!! My Rating: 4.5

07. “Sick & Tired”

Kinda like a low-anticipated song title, here, but with EQ Tha Misfit on tha beat, it might make me like it betta? >>> Yeah, it sounds like a nice anthem with tha hook, here; nice beat, too! Kinda how I feel in tha music biz: “I’m sick & tired of…” tha music biz not showin’ me tha value I deserve! Like, why don’t I have tha likes I deserve? How come no one know what my life like, now? Nobody follow me in a true fashion! Proceeding, here comes tha 1^st verse and you’re really goin’ off, here! Gotta have all dat energy! Quoting people at my job: “How are you so energetic?” Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s just as good as tha 1^st verse! “People changin’ on me…;” of course! Weird in my case ‘cause usually, it’s like, when niggaz be gettin’ money, they change on you! Well, I’m tha one wit a steady income, and almost err-body changed on me! Like, why? Tha music biz died in 2013! No more phones, no more luv; 2013 was tha music biz’s final year! And, B-Real blocking me really killed my Louisiana passion! So, a review like this iz hard to come by!! My Rating: 4.3

½time: Off to an excellent, consistent, grimy, 225-y start here, Boxx!! Just as I expected, but only betta! You are a perfect example as to why I be havin’ so much energy at my job! Immortal energy’s hard to come by when others are “tired,” you know?! You’re at a 4.4 for tha CD rating, currently; thumbs up!! Before I continue, lemme just flash back and see how long ago that Bring The Pain Mixtape Vol. 2: Word Of Mouf review was… *Checks* Ha ha, it was Review #313; that was 1,161 reviewz ago!!!

08. “No Luv”

Production from Grind Music, here (formerly just known as “Grind”, meaning, tha ChaYsuh “Grind”?); lookin’ forward ta hearin’ fa some reason… >>> Actually, my anticipation backfired at me; not feelin’ this sample and tha beat’s kinda plain for me, as far as a southern beat! Reminds me of you-know-who who robbed me that $555 in 2011! It reminds me of somethin’ they would make with this sample! However, you did a nice job with tha hook and your aggression… Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and it’s very consistent to where tha sample’s overshadowed by your tight, consistent rhymes!! “I chew a beat like a gusher;” holy, gushing!!! Ahh, here you go wit havin’ to throw a “money” reference on tha 2^nd verse, here, off top… Uh…, once again, nice, consistent rhymes, regardless. And, a long beat outro with that sample… Uh, anybody wanna rob $555 from me now? Was a close call to whether or not I like this betta than “Nasty”, but I think I approve that one more. My Rating: 3.5

09. “No Pass” feat. General Mark

Yes, we have a new feature on tha feature! And, it’s an EQ-produced track, so I know this one gon go ham! Pay off, anticipation level!! >>> Almost thought it was K Camp “Lil’ Bit” on that first second of tha beat; nice tease! Sounds like a tight street anthem between your aggression and tha way this beat sounds on tha hook! And, at :28, it sounds like Mark made his debut with a quick lil’ appearance! Hearin’ tha title part and it was pretty nice; reminds me of anotha song that’s been out? Hearin’ Mark in tha background about niggaz bein’ “broke” or somethin’ and I’m thinkin’, “Oh, no, don’t be obsessed with money on tha verse!!” And, “no pass,” here, as far as waiting, since he’s on tha 1^st verse… Okay, I give him credit; sounds pretty nice. He sounds like he’s got anotha great voice like yours. You sound all hyper and shit ‘cause you’re skinner like me, I believe? I bet he weighs more than you and has a lil’ slower flow ‘cause of that, lol, but it qualifies for quality! “Drop nuts like elephants;” large!! LOL, a bag of regular coffee beans was open this morning and I was like, “It’s like a pouch of a kangaroo bein’ extra pregnant,” or somethin’, lol! With that bein’ said, you got a consistent verse goin’ on here, Boxx, on tha 2^nd verse; definitely nice!! Oh yeah, tha hook easily reminds me of Migos “One Time”! “Only tell you one time, only tell you one time. Only tell you one time, only tell you one time.” “You don’t get no pass, you don’t get no pass. You don’t get no pass, you don’t get no pass,” lol! Hearin’ you on tha 3^rd verse and damn, you keepin’ this shit goin’ wit tha consistent, manual-depectin’ rhymes!! Nice beat outro, too; luvin’ this Louisiana version of Migos “One Time”!! My Rating: 4.6

10. “Came A Long Way” feat. Kevin Gates

Speakin’ of 1,161 reviewz ago, here we are again! LOL, back when my girl was only 16—what!!! Kevin Gates has paved tha way for us! Like, I neva thought a record label would drive to my house ‘cause they discovered that I blogged/reviewz Gates since ’08! Like, I’m in Mass Appeal Records’ magazine ‘cause of Gates! Tha magazine article’s out now: http://massappeal.com/doggystyle-frankie-tha-lucky-dog/

Luv life!! I celebrate all tha time!! But, to make this one short and quick, pure production from Rich On Da Track, here, and you got tha verses on lock with tha catchy, Baton Rouge-livin’ rhymes! And, with Gates on tha hook, it’s definitely somethin’ to embrace! This was right before he got arrested in ’09 and when I talked to you, you explained, “I only wanted Gates on tha hook ‘cause when Game had Lil’ Wayne on ‘My Life’, he only had Wayne on tha hook. I wanted to create somethin’ like that;” you did a nice job wit that! My Current Rating: 4.7

11. “They Hate It” feat. Samuel Maurice

Got anotha newbie here, with PK Beats on tha beat! Lemme see… >>> Kinda sounds like a bullshit, mainstream-soundin’ beat start, here… Beat kinda gets a lil’ interesting on tha hook, but still a lil’ poppy… Tha hook ain’t too bad, but kinda 1D with tha “they hate me” content… We got you on tha 1^st verse and tha flow’s kinda catchy… “Neva fold like lawn chairs on Labor Day;” wow, totally from left field, lol!! Excellent lyrical skillz on tha 2^nd verse!!! Can’t deny how much you can roll so much shit off your tongue!!! “Powerball like lottery;” lol, you know!! My Rating: 4.3

12. “Loyalty”

A1 Productions beat, here; lemme see what we got goin’ on… >>> Feelin’ tha beat start; sounds like it gon be some consistent, southern shit! Hearin’ tha hook and it sounds real nice! Like how you start tha hook off wit, “OMG, Heavenly Father…;” nice! Feelin’ you and this loyal street banga! Hearin’ tha 1^st verse and, of course, you got tha consistency on lock, here!! Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse and it’s pretty nice; definitely feelin’ what you bringin’ to tha table at all times!! My Rating: 4.4

13. “Lighters Up”

Let’s hear it, produced by The Dream Beats… >>> Feelin’ tha start, here, as you talk about “Mother Nature recreatin’ tha trees,” even though it’s about “money,” lol! And, you’re continuously goin’ on wit these consistent rhymes; definitely feelin’ ‘em! Wow @ tha 2^nd verse, as well! Damn @ tha “preacher catchin’ bodies,” or whateva that comparison was! And, 1:05 on tha outro? Seemed like it flew by… My Rating: 4.0

14. “Courageous” feat. DJ Mario

Vyruz Beatz doin’ tha track, here, with a DJ on tha feature… Let’s see, despite anotha DJ hosting, lol… >>> August Alsina on tha hook? Kinda sounds like tha worst quality on this CD… Really not diggin’ this mainstream shit at all! Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse and it’s good with your consistency; lemme leave it at dat! Tha last few bars of tha 1^st verse was 100% quality with how you rambled so much off your tongue!! Tha 2^nd verse sounds nice ta hear, too; good job… My Rating: 3.1

15. “Lying”

Same producer from tha last joint, here… Have a feelin’ this gon be bleh, but let’s see… >>> “We gon grind fa Instagram likes;” really, Big Jay? Sucks that “likes” defines how popular someone iz, smh! But, hearin’ this and this ain’t as bad as tha previous song. Tha hook ain’t too bad, but this beat and track seems too plain… Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse and it’s real nice ta hear your consistent rhymes, once again. However, you could’ve rapped this on a Baton Rouge beat! “I’m outchea like open cleavage;” tit-tayz!!! Tha 2^nd verse’s pretty nice, too; can’t deny this… Neva would’ve thought “Britney Spears” and “Oops…I Did It Again” would come outta your mouth! Nice “lying” and “tiger to a lion” parts to compare, too, in tha hook! My Rating: 3.5

Overall: I thought you did an excellent job wit this CD! Most of tha production’s on point and you had some nice features, too! Your undeniable energy can’t be stopped and you know what you’re doin’ as far as stayin’ consistent! Glad you neva been cocky about yourself and have stayed true to bein’ connected wit me! That’s what’s up! Keep up tha grind!

Review #1,352: Que Tha Truth "24 Karat G.O.L.D. (Gangstaz Only Live 4 Death)"

Reviewed on 12.08.2013 (Review #1,352)

My next review for today iz Bumaye Music Group’s Que Tha Truth 24 Karat G.O.L.D. (Gangstaz Only Live 4 Death). Also wanted to mention that not too long ago, my review prices for requested/non-Louisiana CDs went up to $30 each. One main reason, as I discussed it over with my friends, was ‘cause of how many songs appear on a CD/how long each CD iz. Example: This CD has 19 songs. My friends were like, “Wow, 19? Not, like, 12 or so,” and especially that they’re almost 80 minutes long! You know I gotta be paid at least $20.00 an hour when I do things for people! Start Time: 9:58 PM | End Time: 10:59 PM

Disclaimer: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion! I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care how lyrical you are, as long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings. If a song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6 rating, I pretty much really love it, as it’s considered mindblowin’ when I hear it! Any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> ” iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song; anything after I type “ >>> ” iz what I think of tha song while I’m listening to it. If you use tha word “swag” frequently, have auto-tune in your vocals, or talk about nothin’ but money and hoes 100,000x (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it! After I was robbed by an artist who claimed they “get money,” hearin’ about how much you “got money” and anything “money” really bothers me. If you have not done business wit me before, I won’t tolerate “money” talk in tha music!!

01. “Egypt”

Luger Beats on tha production, here; not no Rich or anyone? >>> Really? Why tha Nu$$ie “Bumaye” in tha beginning? Don’t tell me that’s why you named your label, “Bumaye Music Group,” right? Why name somethin’ after someone dead? Kinda sounds like you can’t let go of tha past or somethin’… But, good hook with an okay beat, though it’s very mainstream-soundin’… Tha 1^st verse sounds okay, so far… Hearin’ tha hook for tha 2^nd time, and it sounds real catchy wit tha Egyptian perspective! Tha 2^nd verse kinda sounds like yada-yada wit tha feelin’-like-a-supastar rhymes, but it ain’t bad… My Rating: 4.0

02. “Lennox”

LOL, I shouldn’t’ve opened my mouth so fast about tha previous production ‘cause La’Keith’s on this beat! >>> Not really into a speech in tha beginning, here… This a La’Keith beat? Complete disappointment, though I’m kinda feelin’ tha East Coast vibe. This’ll go down as a novelty fa me, but whateva. A lil’ on tha boring side with this lyrical shit; rhymes are good, but this ain’t catchy for a song… Tha hook sounds weird, too; anotha minus! Hearin’ tha 2^nd verse; why can’t you just go by “Que,” like you did, previously? Why does everyone have ta have “Tha” in their name—I know I do, but I neva changed my name, outta nowhere? Also, an auto-positive word, like “truth” or “realest”? Usually, that makes people fake—not saying you are, but it makes ‘em like that, most of tha time! “Part-time drug dealer” on tha 3^rd verse, huh? Hearin’ this beat, and it don’t sound like drug material… My Rating: 3.6

03. “Pi$$ Poor” Feat. Diablo
La’Keith beat! >>> This sounds more like it! Feelin’ how Diablo comes through on tha hook with how he started! Then again, this a money song, and knowin’ that I ain’t hear Diablo in a long time, I can’t take this money shit too serious. Not sayin’ that he fake, but I just don’t get tha obsession of money when you’re M.I.A.! Unless he just a hook man? Your 1^st verse went by quick… Good rhymes you spit, here; keep ‘em comin’! Tha 2^nd verse sounds pretty catchy and consistent! This sounds more entertainin’ than tha shit you was spittin’ on tha previous song. Thought there’d be a 3^rd verse, but tha hook repeated… If there’s all this “got a lotta doe,” how come you haven’t sent a ton my way, as far as me makin’ commercials, or buyin’ beats from me, or somethin’? Can’t be quiet like everyone else! My Rating: 4.6

04. “Important”

An “important” producer on tha production, here (Haney)! >>> Feelin’ tha production, here! Sounds like you’re deliverin’ a catchy hook; nice! Fast rhymes comin’ outta tha 1^st verse; nice, but why err-body rappin’ fast, these dayz? Tha 2^nd verse iz consistent, too; you’ll prolly neva fall on your face! My Rating: 4.3

05. “Money-Makin’ Mitch” Feat. Diablo

Anotha La’Keith beat, but I’m not into this title at all! >>> Not anotha speech! I like tha “brick” shit, but not all tha “money” obsession parts, as far as tha hook goes… Tha 1^st verse ain’t bad from you, here… Tha 2^nd verse sounds a lil’ cocky. Like, at times, I think, why say, “They pockets broke,” when I haven’t seen anything from you, yet. Then again, I can agree wit what you’re sayin’ ‘cause damn-near err-body in Louisiana broke as fuck, and don’t even wanna do business wit me! Not sure why, but now, we got Diablo, randomly comin’ into tha 2^nd verse without a hook transition… Kinda sounds like yappin’, but it ain’t bad. Not bad, but that wasn’t good that there was no hook in between your verse and his… My Rating: 3.7

06. “Ambitionz Of A Rider” Feat. Kareem

Big B beat; don’t I know this already? If not, I’m not diggin’ this borrowed title! >>> Nice beat start, but this slowly gettin’ weaker for me, especially that feature’s voice! Gross “Twitter” & “inbox” lyrics, too! You really don’t need ta make 210348723403240238432043289420349 songs per CD, now! Damn, this 4:31? C’mon, now! Tha hook turned out ta be not as bad as I expected, surprisingly… Tha 2^nd verse’s a lil’ boring with tha delivery, here… Tha rest of this iz ehh… My Rating: 1.9

07. “King Tut”

Klassics beat. >>> Beat sounds cool, here. Tha beat’s gettin’ cooler and feelin’ colder with tha sounds, as it progresses throughout tha 1^st verse!! Catchy rhymes from you fa tha streetz, too! “Polo boxers;” where you get them from? Neva seen ‘em anywhere… I don’t even know where a “Polo” store iz, regularly. I’ve only seen ‘em in places where you can’t stop moving (e.g., Atlantic City), where you don’t have time to explore. Either way, tha 2^nd verse has consistent rhymes, so props on that. My Rating: 4.4

08. “IonKnow”

DopeBoy beat. >>> Got no time fa you havin’ dick in your mouth; no way!! My Rating: 1.0

09. “Dreams Come True”

Guss beat. >>> Does Guss not like cousins, anymore? Well, this track sounds a lil’ too soft fa me. Tha beat’s soft/not Guss’ style, and tha hook has a money-ova-reputation topic! Yuck! Tha 1^st verse aight; let’s see what tha 2^nd one—regular talkin’ that sounds like a speech before tha 2^nd verse… Okay, what’s goin’ on, here? Rather’ve this been tha last song on this CD. My Rating: 2.4

½time: Kinda shaky with tha ratings, so far… Some are pretty nice, some are decent, and then, there’s a few ones that are really outta my league! All together, you’re only at a 3.3 for tha CD rating, currently.

10. “Major”

Klassics beat. >>> Kinda 50/50 wit this beat: Like, a harp? I like ‘em, but this ‘pose ta be Baton Rouge, and rap music, right?! Rhymes on tha 1^st verse’s ehh…, not bad. Tha hook not that special fa me; what’s with tha alternated voice? Tha 2^nd verse okay, but this joint ain’t fa me, overall. My Rating: 2.6

11. “Again”

Luger Beats beat. >>> Can’t be bothered with tha gay voice!! My Rating: 1.0

12. “iLoveA!!MyNigga$”
Barber Beats; a title I can’t relate to at all!! >>> Sounds better, but like I said, I can’t relate to this, and neva will! Goin’ through my Instagram right now, and when I look at people postin’ pics with/of other people around, I think, “Did you have a kid or somethin’,” lol? But, tha 1^st verse’s rhymes ain’t too bad; sounds like you’re dedicated. Then again, how do you get people ta “love”? Tha 2^nd verse sounds like random rappin’. On topic, but why “get money witcha;” sounds impossible, since people rob people!! Hearin’ tha hook one last time, and when you say, “Fuck all y’all niggaz,” it’s basically sayin’ that you’re just like everyone else: Cool ta ignore, hoes on my dick, I hate dudes, but I have 12039403424902340234 dudes with me; weird. My Rating: 3.2

13. “Manic Depression”

AJ Beats; interestin’ title? >>> “Tryna be a kid with a kid;” noooo! That’s what ruins today’s rappers in tha undaground! It’s almost like they wanna quit!! I’ve dealt with many young dads, and they’re great at ignoring! And, most importantly, they lie about havin’ money!! Needless to say, I’m feelin’ tha consistent, real-life rhymes you spittin’, here! But, as far as kids, at least wait ‘til you’re 30! I’m 25, and I see myself havin’ kids at least anotha decade from now! I’m too focused on my career and stayin’ consistent! I know that’s not cool to most folks, but that’s what I wanna do and ‘cause I’m autistic, that’s what I have ta do! Tha 2^nd verse sounds aight, too… A 3^rd verse, too? Good rhymes, but kinda a boring song, overall, due to tha beat. My Rating: 3.5

14. “Confessions Of A King”
Austin Rashaad beat. I love how no one goes by “Lil’” anymore. When did they know to not use “Lil’” anymore, lol? >>> Anotha producer not producin’ music he was destined to produce, smh. Iz everyone on an Avicii tip with not stickin’ to a loyal sound? What’s with these lame vocals on tha hook? Sounds like a jacked version of Pimp C! Hearin’ you on tha 1^st verse, and tha rhymes are catchy. But, just like tha previous joint, tha beat’s weak/too soft, so it makes me like this a lot less. More on tha acapella-like tip fa tha end; interestin’, but not for this Lil’ Austin that I knew! My Rating: 3.1

15. “No Matter What”

La’Keith beat. >>> WTH? This La’Keith? Sounds like Lenny Kravitz or somethin’, instead! Minus tha rock sound, I’m feelin’ tha beat behind it… Thought you were gonna recycle tha Geto Boys in tha 1^st line with “I stand alone in my room…,” but your rhymes wound up bein’ good. Hearin’ tha hook, and I’m likin’ how this has an older vibe to it. Kinda borderline ‘90s rap; nice feel… Sounds like some fightin’-like theme goin’ on wit tha 2^nd verse; good verse. Hearin’ tha 3^rd verse, and tha lyrics are catchy and consistent! Nice ta hear a track like this, but La’Keith needs ta stay in his lane! My Rating: 4.3

16. “Prayer Work$”
La’Keith beat. >>> Not diggin’ tha piano in tha beginning; where tha synths at? Iz bein’, like, 28 tha new 68, when it comes ta life? You’re still young, La’Keith! A lil’ soft fa me wit tha production, here, and tha hook’s kinda soft with these “God got somethin’ betta fa me” rhymes… Tha 1^st verse has okay rhymes, but once again, this anotha boring track… You really should’ve had, like, 12 or less jointz on here, instead of showin’ off like everyone else wit 18/19 on here, clockin’ at over 70 minutes! Tha 2^nd verse ain’t too bad, here… My Rating: 2.5

17. “IDK How 2 Feel” Feat. Max Minelli

Mystro beat. >>> Okay, I’m likin’ this beat! Talk about this producer stayin’ in his lane and not ‘changing’ ta be cool, when they become more lame!! Catchy hook, too, especially wit tha “neva take naps!” Funny how you “tryna make it out tha trap;” I’m dyin’ ta make it out this music-promoting garbage that I’m stuck in! I gotta start settin’ barriers up for 2014, and make sure no one hits me up! Needless ta say, you doin’ a good job wit tha 1^st verse, too… Tha 2^nd verse sounds consistent, too; good rhymes! Max sounds nice and consistent on tha 3^rd verse, too! Good shit! Nice endin’ about tha “head from an ugly chick,” Max! My Rating: 4.4

18. “H.A.T.E. (Highly Aggrivated Towards Excellence)” Feat. Lil’ Phat

Boo beat. Damn, I thought I could go a whole CD of yours without reviewin’ dead artists, but I guess not, smh! >>> This old song? You only put this on here ‘cause Phat died! Point-blank, period! If this was a new song, DJ B-Real would watch my videos and answer my texts/Facebook messages, rofl! We live in a different world, now, though I still remain loyal to answering! My Current Rating: 4.2

19. “Million-Dolla Dreamin’”

Rich doin’ tha production ta end this off… Uh, not really my kinda title, so let’s see how this’ll end this CD off… >>> Really nice beat in tha beginning, despite there bein’ a beat tag! Not tha kinda voice I expected on tha hook, but thanx to tha beat, this sounds better than average… Rhymes are good, here; this an okay song… Tha hook sounds betta than some of tha soft shit on here, at least. My Rating: 3.7

Overall: I have ta say, at least there was no Nu$$ie songs, even though wit tha rate this went, there prolly should’ve been—well, maybe not him, but tha vibe of Nu$$ie-featuring songs. Hearin’ him durin’ these times makes me think of how much of a brainwashed faggot I was, at tha time. It’s years now; time ta move away from those times, as tha future’s what’s my mission! But anyway, this CD ain’t really turn out that great for me. Most of it was average/below-average, while only a few jointz were hot. I think a lil’ too many jointz, as well as too much change in sound can only confuse me. But, stay on ya grind!

Review #1,268: Que "Screwface"

Reviewed on 2.04.2013 (Review #1,268)

Doin’ some more reviewz, after I took a break yesterday, due to fixin’ tha CDs I reviewed’s files. This one I’m ‘bout to review iz Bumaye Music Group’s Que Screwface. I almost wanted to ignore this at first, due to tha excessive Nu$$ie braggin’ in tha description, but I’m mainly listenin’ to this ‘cause of tha production. Start Time: 9:31 AM | End Time: 10:28 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 use tha word “swag” frequently, have auto-tune in your vocals, or talk about nothin’ but money and hoes 100,000x (which I consider ‘typical’ topics), I’m not buyin’ it!

01. “Living 4 Death”

Boo on tha beat! >>> Was wondering, why tha Nu$$ie beginning? Now, I hear it as a news story. Still, this was how many years ago ta appear in 2012? I had to move on wit my thoughts so my mom and family would let me go to places, instead of dwellin’ on tha past. As for this song, it sounds good, but even mentionin’ “Wne,” too? How do you know all these people? I thought it took a lotta thinkin’… Real nice flow ova this beat; nice lil’ voice you have. It almost sounds like you were made from a computer or somethin’… My Rating: 4.6

02. “Tha Champ Iz Here” Feat. Nu$$ie

No comment; La’Keith production… >>> Thought you might’ve taken tha “Tha Champ Iz Here” quote from Gangsta Gumbo Vol. 2: Ghetto Pass, but it sounds like it’s from somewhere else. Nice beat from La’Keith, here; once again, real nice rhymes from you, here, especially your delivery! Didn’t think there would be a Nu$$ie verse—thought it was gonna be just samples—but there iz; not bad, although it sounds recycled. My Rating: 4.4

03. “ScReWfAc3” Feat. Nu$$ie

Damn, another feature already? Guss beat. >>> Anotha beginning sample, like a skit. Beat sounds nice; sounds a lil’ like a hissing pot, mixed wit J Buc. Did you say, “Budta B,” on tha 1^st verse; iz that him or you? I’m confused, since it’s not listed… Either way, sounds a lil’ cocky wit tha “legend” shit on tha hook. Anotha Nu$$ie verse, here; almost sounds a lil’ familiar, but it’s still good… Here you are on tha 3^rd verse, comin’ through wit good shit, once again. My Rating: 4.3

04. “Street Shit” Feat. Skull Duggrey & Nu$$ie

Anotha? Rich (On Da Track) production. >>> Anotha sample in tha beginning… Interestin’ intro wit tha talking sample from Nu$$, on tha hook… Good 1^st verse from you, as well as tha 2^nd verse… Nu$$ie’s on tha 3^rd verse; his verse’s a lil’ yada-yada wit tha same kinda “shit.” I feel like tha people like you that represent Nu$$ie act 100% serious, like it’s hard to find tha entertainment, easily, as well as joking around. Huh, no Skull verse? Disappointing! My Rating: 4.4

05. “Plum Stupid” Feat. Nu$$ie

What, anotha??? Mystro beat. >>> Real nice beginning wit tha beat and tha “smoke weed” shit! Sounds like classic-soundin’ BR music on tha hook; nice and anthemic! Nice flippin’ out-type verse on tha 1^st verse from you; feelin’ it! Didn’t think Nu$$ie would be on a song like this; all tha rhymes sound random… My Rating: 4.6

06. Who Ya Fear (Skit)
>>> Sounds nice and temple-like. Still, where does all your paranoia come from? My Rating: N/A

07. “Unh-Hunh” Feat. Diablo & Nu$$ie

How old are all of these features?? Mystro beat. >>> Anotha nice beat; tha hook sounds pretty catchy, although it sounds like I hear Lil’ J in tha background? Sounds nice to hear Diablo on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit a great voice and some nice rhymes! Here’s Nu$$ie on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit better rhymes, and some shit I can picture what he’s sayin’. Glad it’s not tha yada-yada, same ol’ shit; good job, Nu$$! And, endin’ wit you on tha 3^rd verse; still sounds real nice! Very, very consistent wit it; keep it up! My Rating: 4.7

08. “First Time (Drivin’ Me Wild)”

Finally, no features! Rich production… >>> Wow, weak “Rodeo” start; kinda like tha Revolutionary Suicide-type songs/ratings! I think I should ask for tha features back! Not really into tha hook; tha rhymes are only aight for me. My Rating: 3.1

09. “Lieutenant Dan” Feat. Kareem & Nu$$ie

La’Keith beat. >>> LOL @ all tha hype in tha beginning; where do you get all dat energy from? You sound great in tha beginning, and this Kareem dude sounds aight on tha 1^st verse, ‘til I’m hearin’ all this boring “racks on racks” shit. It’s like, damn, how many dudes wanna rap about dildos—oh, I mean money. Damn, “swag,” too? Wow, shut up! Time for tha Nu$$! Hearin’ him now on tha 2^nd verse, and he sounds okay, this time; not too bad… However, here you are on tha 3^rd verse, soundin’ better… Only thing that turned me off was Kareem & all tha stupid 2010s generation shit; that’s, like, disrespectful ta Nu$$ie. It’s not like he was rappin’ ‘bout “swag,” smh! My Rating: 4.0

10. “Hol’ Up (P@W$ II)” Feat. Kareem

??? Guss beat. >>> Not bad start, but hearin’ tha, “… these niggaz,” shit reminds me too much of Wayne. Some of tha flow iz okay on tha 1^st verse; sounds like a random hook goin’ on, too… Hearin’ you on tha 2^nd verse, and it sounds a lot betta than tha 1^st verse; incredible flow! However, can’t say that you’re “tha best;” can neva think too much of yourself. You gotta have fun wit it and just stay consistent. Sometimes, you can down yourself and say, like me, that you’re underrated and wish to communicate in person. Luckily, I didn’t notice tha feature, so I’ll give it tha benefit of tha doubt. What was up wit tha last few seconds? Random… My Rating: 4.5

½time: A 4.3-rated CD, so far; sounds like you’re doin’ a much betta job than tha Revolutionary Suicide CD! Keep up tha great work, includin’ tha production you’ve got your ears on! But, before I jump into tha 2^nd ½, lemme go take a shit, since my ass’s callin’! *Starts takin’ shit at 9:57 AM* *Returns after also beatin’ dick at 10:08 AM* Now how does dat sound? Nu$$ie-expressive, would you say, lol?

11. “Come My Way” Feat. Kareem

Decky beat. >>> Beat sounds too NY; that’s not Louisiana! Must be Kareem on tha 1^st verse; not bad… Tha hook sounds a lil’ too weird for this CD; iz this a pop CD? Maybe, that’s Kareem on tha 2^nd—neva mind, I’ll just end it wit tha feedback I left. My Rating: 2.7

12. “Blasphemy”

I guess it’s goin’ to be a quiet 2^nd ½, where it’s mainly just you? Guss beat. >>> Long beginning sample, and it’s not Nu$$ie… You sound different, on this 2^nd ½… I like this Guss beat; sounds like intensity comin’ outta this beat! Then again, you sound a lil’ too much like Kevin Gates wit tha flow; did you have a body conversion or somethin’? Personality disorder? But, it’s still a good song; where do you get that “Polo” shit? Neva see it anywhere… My Rating: 4.4

13. “Who I Shoot” Feat. Bro-Bro & Nu$$ie

Neva mind; La’Keith beat. >>> Back to tha Nu$$ beginnings… Hearin’ him on tha 1^st verse, and it sounds good; sounds like he’s ready to take aim. Tha hook sounds nice, between tha shootin’ and Nu$$ie sayin’ tha title. Still, he would be first in tha ID, since he came first, I think. You’re on tha 2^nd verse, comin’ through wit some good rhymes, too! More Nu$$ie on tha 3^rd verse? Interestin’ about “2008” and “2009!” Good rhymes, again; where’s Bro-Bro? Am I missing people when I’m tryin’ to hear these songs? My Rating: 4.7

14. “All I Want Is You” Feat. Kareem

Decky beat. How did features ever feel so comfortable? I don’t believe in ‘em when it comes to my music! >>> I’m just skippin’ this garbage; no time for this, compared to tha other songs! My Rating: 1.0

15. “Blood Brothas”

Mystro beat. >>> Nice beat, and nice short length! Surprised you remember tha date of when those dudes got released! Good job wit this… My Rating: 4.2

16. “IDK How 2 Feel” Feat. Max Minelli

Mystro beat. I don’t see your name online anywhere, so how do you get to work wit all these people? >>> Nice beat; a lil’ different wit you singin’ this hook… You have a “revolver on [your] lap;” LMAO, you’re into guns? But, good rhymes you spittin’ in tha 1^st verse! Tha 2^nd verse sounds good, too; keep it goin’! Finally, I hear tha feature, this time; decent shit from Max, here. My Rating: 4.4

17. “I’m Gutta” Feat. Mo. P & Nu$$ie

La’Keith beat. >>> I still don’t know how this rap world revolves around beat tags… Sounds like an opera wit that dude in tha background? Not bad wit tha hook and your rhymes; sounds like a regular song… Nu$$ie’s on tha 2^nd verse, sounds okay. However, a lil’ braggy, once again… You’re on tha 3^rd verse, comin’ through for tha streetz, also. My Rating: 4.1

18. “Last Real Niggaz Left” Feat. Nu$$ie, Lil’ J & Diablo

More? La’Keith beat. >>> Anotha Nu$$ie speech in tha beginning… Sounds like an outdated anthem wit tha hook; it’s like, we’re still in 2008 or somethin’? Despite me luvin’ that year, still…; I knew who Meek Mill was, at tha time, unlike all these dickriders, now! Weird that you have tha ID backwards: Nu$$ie’s 1^st, J’s 2^nd & Diablo’s 3^rd… Tha rhymes ain’t too bad, but I like Diablo’s part tha best. Still, very yada-yada; let’s see how you do… Okay, much betta than everyone combined! Good shit… My Rating: 3.9

19. DCF Ain’t Dead (Skit)
??? >>> Prolly could’ve titled this skit better; sounds like anotha temple-like skit that I like. Like, maybe, you could titled this a “Massacre” skit or somethin’? My Rating: N/A

20. “Bumaye Or Die”

Were you like, “Bumaye,” etc. before February 9, 2009? I neva saw your name anywhere… Decky beat. >>> Damn, anotha beat tag? Tha beat started off real grimy, but it sounds too mainstream wit tha soundin’… How you cool wit all these dudes? Aren’t they dudes? Some of y’all are funny by bein’ anti-gay, but it always ends wit, “My dude, my blood, my dawg; I got 20 of ‘em”-type shit; weird. But, sounds pretty consistent wit tha rappin’, here. However, I don’t like that you said, “swaggin’;” think of Nu$$ie bein’ alive, not dead!! I neva said tha word, “swag,” in my rhymes; jealous? My Rating: 4.1

Overall: You might feel this; my latest music video, written, produced, filmed & edited by me about what happened in Hollywood, FL recently: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4n9fKgBFr_g

Anyway, I thought this CD was real nice. There were a few doozies that really knocked your CD rating down, but for tha most part, you had tha original production, and did a nice job wit it!

Review #1,197: B.T. Da Hound "Gutta Priest Vol. 2: Da Jungle Book"

Reviewed on 9.23.2012 (Review #1,197)

Keepin’ tha reviewz goin’: This iz for Money Route Entertainment/Battleline Records: B.T. Da Hound Gutta Priest Vol. 2: Da Jungle Book! I liked your name as just B.T. (from tha Shop Shutters); I dunno why everyone has to have “the,” “tha,” or “da” attached to their name, outta nowhere. But, after failing to send me CDs in tha mail, I hope this iz tha real first CD, despite it bein’ a 2^nd volume! Start Time: 1:57 PM | End Time: 3:03 PM

01. “Real Me”

>>> Beat sounds hot, and tha intro sounds real long, but has me anticipated… Hearin’ you spit on tha 1^st verse, and it sounds nice; good attitude wit your “Money Route” focus! I still can’t picture your face when I hear you rap, at times, but you kickin’ ass wit your rhymes, here! You makin’ dem “residents” really get on tha move, listenin’ to you; good shit wit this non-stop verse! My Rating: 4.2

02. “Get Off” Feat. Pitt & Ya Boy

Looks like a tight collaboration I finna hear!! >>> B N.I.C.E. doin’ tha beat, but why a beat tag? Ooh, really fast wit tha rappin’ comin’ outta nowhere, here! Huh? Mixin’? I thought this was an album; ugh, anotha “mixtape!” Feelin’ tha 1^st verse, strictly ready ta “fight!” Tha hook’s nice and buck; really feelin’ all tha energy bein’ brought to tha track, here!! Tha 2^nd verse sounds like a lesson ready ta be tought, lol! Great shit here; gotta luv it! Time fa tha 3^rd verse, and we’re “bouncin’ off da wall,” non-stop!! A “MySpace” link at tha end; can only imagine how old this iz! My Rating: 4.6

03. “Fuck ‘Em” Feat. B N.I.C.E. & Lapz

>>> Jon Boi beat; ooh! Wow, really lovin’ tha laidback beat wit these great, 225 sounds in tha mist of it! It’s hard ta explain, but tha beat sounds sound great; it’s tha vibe that’s got me hooked! Tha 1^st verse sounds good ova this beat; not much ta say about it, but good job… Tha hook sounds nice; reminds me of Big Blaze, Bloc Munstaz and all them and their great, original music! Thumbs up fa all tha middle finga attitudes on tha hook; good, dumb shit! Tha 2^nd verse sounds good, reppin’ hard fa havin’ so many things, as well as crusin’! Of course, “eat dat dick” randomly appeared in a verse like this, of course… We got tha 3^rd verse, and it’s like a boomerang wit tha “shootin’” at this girl, lol! Catchy rhymes from tha 3^rd verse! My Rating: 4.4

04. “If I’mma Die”

Like tha title…, I think? >>> Jammin’ vibe wit tha beat start; love it! Tha 1^st verse sounds tight; definitely likin’ how you sound on this verse, and you’re spittin’ some great street shit! Ooh, tha hook’s tight, especially wit “goin’ out like tha western movies;” hittin’ ‘em wit dat gutta shit!! Tha 2^nd verse sounds hella tight, too; you got a great voice when it comes ta deliverin’ this shit, and it’s keepin’ me interested!! My Rating: 4.7

05. “Feels Good” Feat. Chips

>>> Keepin’ tha down south vibe comin’ along… Nice job wit tha hook, too, 100% southern… Tha 1^st verse sounds like tha life of a down south playa; good shit. Tha 2^nd verse ain’t too bad, here; glad tha southern feelin’ iz still here. Tha 3^rd verse’s keepin’ this shit goin’, too; “Baton Rouge ackin’” at its finest! My Rating: 4.3

06. “24/7”

>>> Jumped inta this joint immediate—oh wait, why tha mixin’ in tha beginning? I guess that was unique? Almost sounded like it was a really old song… Well, I’m hearin’ tha actual hook, and it sounds great wit this beat! You’re strictly ‘bout this music shit “24/7,” at times… Tha 2^nd verse also sounds great wit tha hood shit you bringin’ to tha table; you can’t stop doin’ what you doin’ and hopefully, music’ll come outta you all tha time!! My Rating: 4.5

07. “O.A.K. (Keep Pumping)” Feat. Mailman

Likin’ tha featured artist’s name, as well as this representation of tha 225 title! >>> Ooh, great beat start!! What a pulse-soundin’ sound!! Tha 1^st verse sounds good; definitely a 225 joint, to tha fullest! “Redrum” spelled backward—oh, “murder,” lol! Nice way ta start tha 2^nd verse off, and I know there’s a lotta “murder” ta avoid! Soon, ta be thugged out wit tha slang, you might catch “a drum” spelled backwards: “murda,” lol! Long beat outro? Oh, tha hook repeated outta nowhere; good shit! My Rating: 4.6

08. “Can We Talk” Feat. Adlib

>>> An X-Fyle beat; let’s see how this gon turn out wit Adlib on tha feature… Beat sounds nice and addictive wit tha sounds! You’re on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit your “plans;” thumbs up fa stayin’ focused! Adlib sounds like his mouth’s movin’ back and forth, side to side, lol; definitely a nice job done wit tha hook! Tha singing’s definitely catchy! Ooh, you got your “Girbauds” on; gotta love ya! You’re “19”? I thought you were, like, 10 years older or somethin’? LOL, gotta love my confusion and how I instantly get confused! Tha 2^nd verse sounds like a great getaway; nice job wit these lyrics. I may take a trip to Florida in November; great getaway, but more like a disaster-turning-warzone ‘cause my 91-year-old great-grandma’s house area’s gettin’ demolished! :( So, it’s a moving process… My Rating: 4.4

09. “Big” Feat. Savage Sosa

>>> Ooh, hot beat start!!! Yes, hella catchy hook!!! Everything iz a “big” accomplishment, “big” mission, and more! Glad you feel this way wit these “big” thoughts! Thumbs up fa tha 1^st verse, too, as you can’t stop wit these things you want to complete! Savage Sosa on tha 2^nd verse? Definitely likin’ his verse and these million different “big” things he wants/he has! Thumbs up fa tha R.I.P. “ta Lil’ Handy!” Very addictive, here; great collaboration!! Sounds like we’re back ta you on tha 3^rd verse, and it sounds like a lot of shit goin’ on wit your life; great ta hear, though! My Rating: 4.8

10. “My Nigga” Feat. HB

>>> Rich On Da Track! Likin’ that it’s only 107 seconds long! It’s good ta have short songs, here and there! Wow, 41-second beat intro; only 66 seconds ta rap, lol? Feelin’ tha attitude that you’re bringin’ to tha table, here! For a song about someone who has died, this iz definitely on some street shit! At least you’re not boo-hooin’ and cryin’ on tha track; you’re comin’ through in a street perspective! My Rating: 4.5

½time: I’m definitely in-tune wit this CD, right now; B.T., of course, you’re definitely holdin’ it down fa tha 225, here!! Any Shop Shutter kicks ass ‘cause all y’all came from tha streetz! A 4.5-rated CD, currently; keep up tha great work!!!!

11. “No Rules”

>>> You sound good rappin’ on this; thumbs up fa tha street shit you bringin’ to tha 1^st verse! There’s no denyin’ you… no denyin’ you!! Tha hook sounds tight without “rules,” lol! Good shit comin’ from tha 2^nd verse, too; layin’ down your own “rules” fa these dudes!! My Rating: 4.3

12. “Baton Rouge” Feat. Beezy

Who exactly iz this Beezy? I know four already: Beezy B, Beezy Bird, Beezy Boy & Beezy Boy (with Savage Life Entertainment)… >>> Thought I heard “rush” for tha title, lol; that’s how you can tell this iz definitely southern!! Great hook from this Beezy dude, and this beat iz 100% amazing!!! This iz tha true “Baton Rouge” sound, in a classic way!!! This Beezy dude’s on tha 1^st verse, and he’s got a gutta vibe! Strictly holdin’ these “Baton Rouge” streetz down! Oh, “Oaktown”? No wonder why he sounds so kick-assy/tight!!! Let’s see what you got on tha 2^nd verse… It’s almost like you’re rappin’ without takin’ a breather!! Great job wit tha rhymes!! You’re fulla dem rhymes!! We got tha 3^rd verse, here, and you’re still comin’ through wit dat tight shit!! My Rating: 4.9

13. “Fuck A Bitch”

>>> Anotha really short one; glad to have a lil’ versatility! Beat sounds good ta rap on, but you have tha rhymes ta help this shit out! Tha streetz have healthy air, thanx ta you! Keep tha attitude comin’ along; attitude helps tracks and show emotions!! Tha hook sounds a lil’ hilarious wit how you sound wit these vocals; southern and funny, here and there! That outro sounded familiar from somewhere; glad you threw that in there, too, lol! My Rating: 4.3

14. “Strategize” Feat. Young Sport

This looks anticipatin’, between tha title and new featured artist! >>> Beat sounds good; likin’ tha non-stop sounds throughout it, too. Nice job wit tha 1^st verse, here, as these rhymes are for those that have a plan. Tha hook sounds catchy, too; I’m likin’ tha different voice/vocal thing! Tha 2^nd verse sounds good; you and your missions! What tha? Why does this have, like, a 150-second beat outro? Should’ve just taken it out! My Rating: 4.0

15. “Brang It Out” Feat. Dumaine, Rena & Adlib

>>> Why a B N.I.C.E. beat tag? It sounds like a nice beat, but no need for tha tag! Adlib feature? I thought I heard this from somewhere? Might’ve been Dumaine’s CD? I know this ID’s confusin’ me… Yea, I think it’s originally called “Get It Outta You”, or somethin’ like that. My Current Rating: 4.2

16. “Satisfied” Feat. B N.I.C.E.

>>> Sounds nice wit how this person doesn’t “believe in change,” for a start. Tha beat sounds nice fa you ta rap on; you always have your ears on tha southern flava!! Tha hook sounds okay wit tha sung hook; good flava fa this and message about tha fucked up world we’re livin’ in… Oh, if only someone/people can help my rappin’ granny and her 91-year-old mom! Here’s tha 2^nd verse (B N.I.C.E.) and only “21,” at whateva year this iz from… My Rating: 4.0

17. “Step ‘Em Down” Feat. Ya Boy

>>> Beat sounds like it’s a club banga or somethin’, but tha content sounds gangsta? Tha hook sounds good; almost sounds like a DJ’s hosting? Yea, this iz on tha club tip, and tha 1^st verse’s comin’ through wit some gangsta shit! Tha 2^nd verse’s sounds like it fits wit tha 1^st verse, keepin’ this club vibe comin’. LOL, “this jigga fa you;” thanx, lol! Tha DJ sounds random, here; a weird Ya Boy Earl? “2008”? Gotta luv how tha Nu$$ie-Alive times neva die!! My Rating: 4.1

18. “My Dogg (Shoutouts)”

>>> Tha beat’s nice and southern fa you ta rap on, wit a lil’ bit of an upbeat feel. Tha rappin’ sounds good; I like how you say tha title a lot; “my muthafuckin’ dogg!” You know, that’s how I feel about you, B.T.; thanx fa discoverin’ me, “my muthafuckin’ dogg!!” What’s up wit tha long beat outro and then, tha repeat of tha hook? Weird… My Rating: 4.2

19. “Play It By The Book”

>>> Great beat start!!! Shout out ta this mysterious producer!!! “2008”? Iz this whole CD from 2008? No wonder why it sounds soooooooooooooo good!!! Those Nu$$ie-Alive times are so classic and almost impossible ta repeat!! “Rest in peace my nigga…;” how do you know so many people? I actually neva had a friend die in my life, before! You sound good on tha 1^st verse, comin’ through wit a “Mariah Carey” mention from “Touch My Body”, as you talked about her wit “YouTube,” lol? That’s anotha great Nu$$ie-Alive mention! Oh, tha 2008 times!! Nice job wit tha verse and short song; thumbs up fa supplyin’ tha streetz, non-stop!! My Rating: 4.1

20. “My Shit”

>>> Dumaine doin’ tha beat; interestin’! Did he produce most of these songs wit no beat tags? Anyway, you’re comin’ through nicely wit tha 1^st verse; “not leavin’ ‘til I call it a night”? Glad you have perseverance!! Tha 2^nd verse sounds good, too; you ain’t frontin’ wit this g-shit! Good job wit tha 3^rd verse, too; keep stayin’ on your “shit!” My Rating: 4.2

Overall: You kicked a lot of ass here, B.T.!! Hope you still sound so great in 2012! Nothin’ was close to disappointin’ on here; amazin’!!
