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. 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 – I Do It”
Production
by Y.E. Beatz, here. >>> Good intro, here. As far as tha actual song,
it sounds like a catchy beat and some catchiness in tha hook wit this simple
title/delivery of tha title. I’m feelin’ tha rhymes goin’ on, here, too; seems
like you’re on a non-stop grind fa some gold! My Rating: 4.0
02.
“Bullet In My Head” Feat. The Show
I
like this title. Plus, The Show’s a feature so you know this should be somethin’ serious!! >>> Jontan David
beat, here, which sounds good for a current, New Orleans-type joint. Tha hook
sounds pretty nice and catchy, too; sounds like a nice lil’ joint before I
could even hear tha rhymes, lol… Hearin’ tha rhymes, now, and tha slow flow,
here, sounds nice wit tha great rhymes, at times! Show sounds good wit his
catchy rhymes; they just keep goin’ and goin’ and goin’, lol! Wasn’t sure if a
3rd verse would be here but it’s you and it’s somewhat-good, too;
was hoping to get some luck wit a ½ verse from Show, too… My Rating: 4.2
03.
“Zone Out”
Same
producer fa this song, too; what do we got here? >>> I have
anticipation fa dis; let’s see if it’s worth bein’ a “single.” Well, I like tha
faster BPMs, here; definitely grabbin’ my attention fa interest, here! Good job
wit tha rhymes and tha hook’s pretty catchy, too; call this a winner! My Rating: 4.3
04.
“I’m Paid” Feat. Pimpin’ Magnolia
A
beat from Legit, here. >>> LOL, ain’t this funny? A Lil’ Wayne sample wit him
havin’, like, food in his mouth iz entertainin’ ta hear! :rofl Tha rhymes are
even somethin’ catchy, too; good job wit this collaboration! My Rating: 4.2
05.
“Lights, Camera, Action” Feat. Joey Queans
Same
producer again? LOL, good job wit these double combos? >>> Yup! Likin’
tha production, here; tha hook sounds like somethin’ good, too! Yes, some
gangsta shit goin’ on, here; really feelin’ tha perspective fa tha streetz!
Nice job fa gettin’ Mr. Queans on tha feature; good shit, although, why did it
go out, or somethin’, when he said, “Rock N [?] beard.”? My Rating: 4.1
06.
“It’s Alright”
More
Legit productions… >>> Maybe three-in-a-row was too much; not too
crazy ‘bout tha semi-soft, mainstream feel, here… Well, even though tha hook’s
a lil’ smooth wit tha voice delivery and combination of tha production, I’m kinda likin’ it a lil’ bit… My Rating: 3.4
07.
“Amped Up”
Ooh,
2 Saint beat! >>> An intro, here; good, as well as tha beat start
remindin’ me of Soulja Boy Tell ‘Em “Let Me Get ‘Em”’s start. Sounds like you
can fit wit Max Minelli wit how you sound on this, too, includin’ tha title
bein’ one of his, too! Feelin’ tha way you continue ta come through wit this
good-soundin’ content; nothin’ too boring about tha lyrics, too… My Rating: 4.1
08.
“Pay Your Dues” Feat. C-Murder
2
Saint, again! >>> Oh, resurrection from 2009, a lil’ bit? Glad it’s an
original version, though; guess this iz Ponchatoula (borderline of Baton Rouge sound) vs. New Orleans,
here, since I first heard this as Lil’ Cali’s
2009 song from his “Cold Summer” CD.
As far as this version, cool ta hear tha lady on tha hook, again (Pennie? If
her, hope she ain’t unsourced). C-Murder sounds pretty nice on tha 1st
verse; good for a Louisiana vs. Louisiana song! LOL, you
sound like Max Minelli on tha 2nd verse; I see a future wit him,
too. Nice job, overall, ya dig? An outro from Bengie B, too; good shit! My Rating: 4.3
½time: This iz a pretty-good CD,
overall; thought I’d be disappointed but this iz some nice, consistent shit!!
Currently, you’re at a 4.1 for tha CD rating!
09.
“On Beam”
DJ
Dyber on tha beat, here; how will it go? >>> Sounds like a cool anthem
wit tha hook and beat; good job fa feelin’ good wit what you be goin’ through
on a daily basis, Rap style! My Rating: 3.9
10.
“My Last Name” Feat. M11
What
this gon be about? No producer listed; jacked beat? >>> Doesn’t
exactly sound like one but I like this theme about “givin’ someone [your] last
name!” Sounds like tha lyrics are somethin’ serious and consistent! Pretty-good
combo, overall, although tha hook’s slowly becomin’ kinda mainstreamish, for
me, wit tha vocals… My Rating: 3.8
11.
“Wonderful Life” Feat. Shawt Fella
Added
“Fella” to Shawt’s name? He goes by a two-word name, now? Anyway, Y.E. Beatz,
this time, wit tha production. >>> Sounds like what could be a good,
mainstream song, based off its sound. I’m likin’ tha 2nd verse betta
than tha 1st verse; sounds like some consistent shit comin’ from
Shawt, here! My Rating: 3.8
12.
“Woman”
Ben
Rosen be—oh, I remember not goin’ for this when I heard it on a mixtape,
previously; sorry. Then again, it’s a lil’
betta than 1.4. Once again, way too Pop for me; not a fan of this stupid-ass
2010s generation of mainstream music! My
Current Rating: 1.9
13.
“In This World”
Legit
on tha beat, here. >>> An okay/good song; sounds catchy wit tha hook
wit tha “in thi—in this world” part. My
Rating: 3.7
14.
“Get It Poppin’”
Y.E.
Beatz doin’ tha beat, this time. >>> This goes wit “Woman” but this iz
betta wit tha production and tha rhymes ain’t too bad, either. My Rating: 2.6
15.
“She Know It”
Anotha
Y.E. beat, here. >>> Sounds catchy wit tha hook, as well; I like how
tha production iz, too. This has a good mainstream feel to it, too, which
should sound good in futures, too. My
Rating: 3.8
16.
“Watch Me Stunt” Feat. Lady Karma & Y Luck
Mathematics
on tha beat? LOL, what a simple name; let’s see what dis gon be like for an
ending song… >>> Catchy wit tha screwed-soundin’ hook. Lady emergin’
on tha 1st verse, soundin’ like she’s readin’ somethin’, but in a
catchy way, lol. Tha 2nd verse sounds consistent wit tha rhymes;
nice shit… Tha 3rd verse iz good, too; seems like you have some
catchy shit ta offer on this joint, too. My
Rating: 3.8
Overall: Betta than I thought,
especially when “Woman” was one of tha 1st songs I heard! Excluding
#6, all of tha 1st ½ was 4.0 or higher; all of tha 2nd ½
was under 4.0. Unexpected, but at least tha 1st ½ was tha peak for
me.
