Review #1,938: Mike Rich "Up Season 2"

Reviewed on 6.29.2020 (Review #1,938)


As these reviewz continue, my next one iz Mike Rich Up Season 2, courtesy of Curbs To Castles, Inc.! For those that may not know, Mike Rich formerly went by tha stage name, Puppy & was affiliated with Dope Celebrity Records & Nu$$ie. Now, changin’ tha stage name to a money-affiliated name? I’ono… Also, I neva got ta check out tha 1st Up Season, due to I prolly ain’t know about it. Just been havin’ a focused schedule on gettin’ older shit done… Start Time: 6:24 PM | End Time: 7:00 PM


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

© 2020 Review (Review #1,937) reviewed on 6.29.2020 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “Intro”
>>> Beat sounds like a good lil’ intro vibe, here… Sounds catchy wit how you comin’ through wit tha rhymes, here; hope tha good quality continues… Yeah, “fuck” who “ratted” on you, ya heard me? I got “ratted” on, too & dat shit made me evolve! It’s like, I live in a pussy town & can’t wait ta get outta it! My Rating: 4.2


02. “Going Nu$$ie”
>>> Sounds great fa a “Nu$$ie” tribute, between tha hook & tha beat! Glad ta keep him remembered, in a great way! This tha “dumb way,” most definitely!! Even my production tags have Nu$$ie shoutin’ me out, now; gotta keep him alive! Hearin’ tha 1st verse & I like how you have his flow/vibe, in tha rhymes! I used ta criticize that shit of when err-body would be on Nu$$ie’s nuts, afta he died. However, you an O.G. & an ‘80s baby in your 30’s, so you get da G-Pass! Lol, when you have tha Nu$$ie sample, “My nigga ‘pose ta be real, doe,” it sounds funny when it’s inserted, on tha hook… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & it’s nice; gotta luv “Bro-Bro,” too! All about those good peeps; met “Bro-Bro” on June 24, 2017 & it was a great lil’ visit…! Keep dis hot shit comin’; definitely nice, on tha 2nd verse, too! My Rating: 4.4


03. “Young Niggas”
>>> Sounds like a good lil’ intro & quieter beat, here, fa tha streetz… I feel what you sayin’ on tha hook ‘bout tha “flashin’;” can’t stand it! We need more real people in tha world, ya heard me? When they flash “money” & shit, tha shit so fake!! Neva witnessed so much fake shit till that shit, ya heard me? Ain’t no1 got “money” like how they flash! Hearin’ tha 1st verse & you got dis street shit on lock; most definitely! When I touch down in BR again, we gotta link up; O.G.-type shit! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & it cool; I digz how you keep dis hot shit comin’… My Rating: 4.1


04. “FWM” feat. Spitta
>>> Sounds like a hyped-up beginning, here; definitely anticipated, here…! Sounds like a dope hook; lay it down…! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse & tha verse’s what’s up; keep tha heat in da streetz, ya heard me? Got King Spit on tha 2nd verse, here, comin’ through wit tha “coughin’” & “coffin,” here; definitely what’s up! Keep tha rhymes comin’, Big Spit!! I like tha “K” part, too; non-stop barz, like xanabarz!! My Rating: 4.4


05. “All Outta Options”
>>> Tha voice effect sounds like some of tha shit you hear in tha mainstream, these dayz… Not too sure how much I feel tha harmonizin’, on tha hook; it str8, so far… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it aight; I feel tha rhymes & beat but iffy wit how you sound, here… Keepin’ it goin’ wit tha 2nd verse & shit sounds nice, as I feel tha rhymes more… Yeah, R.I.P. ta Markee, as I can’t believe it’ll be 11 years, just like wit Nu$$! Well, this ended at 3:02 but it’s 4:06 on tha length; you ain’t get rid of tha silence…?? My Rating: 3.8


½time: Finally, we have a full-on Baton Rouge release, here! Definitely sick of spendin’ money on shit that gets a shitty review, as well as not on a Baton Rouge tip! I work hard fa my money & it deserves ta go to tha best! Wit that bein’ said, Pupp, I’m glad I bought this so you can stack some paypa up, ya heard me? A 4.2-rated release, so far, for tha ½time; let’s keep it goin’!


06. “I’m Just Saying”
>>> Unfortunately, this iz where I see thangz goin’ downward; definitely not feelin’ tha auto-tune beginning… Ugh, even throughout tha hook? Don’t fuck wit it, includin’ tha “get this money” shit; toxic combo…! Keepin’ tha stupid voice effect goin’ wit tha 1st verse, here, as you have okay rhymes; ain’t nothin’ like tha otha jointz, tho… No comment on tha 2nd verse, as well, except for I don’t think it deserved my $0.99… My Rating: 1.0


07. “We Did It” feat. Chris Snowden
>>> More shitty voice effects, in tha beginning? Hope not… Hearin’ tha hook & it ain’t too bad, as far as a laidback vibe; let’s see how tha verses go… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse & it sounds good; I feel what you bringin’, here, wit a normal voice! I know how it be “in da pen;” shit suck! Also, you find out who really real & shit like dat! There’s no one in my area that real; glad I focus more on tha music peeps, these dayz! Surprised feature? This Chris Snowden dude sound dope; feelin’ his aggression & Dope Celeb-like street vibe! Last name “Snowden”? Related to Pine Obama, outta BR, as he’s Jessie Snowden? If so, that’s what’s up ‘cause he anotha tight dude, outta dat Gunz Up Entertainment! Great job wit this collab, from what I thought was gon be aight, at first… I like how tha “I ain’t (I ain’t), I ain’t (I ain’t)…” echoes, toward tha end; good goin’…! My Rating: 4.0


08. “Ass Like Nikki”
>>> Sounds like a mix between, like, a YG joint & Nu$$ie’s “Bellpepper” “ass” vibe? I digz it; good lil’ hook & beat, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse from you & it cool; keep it up fa da asses! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & it sound cool; you really made this joint 4:22 on tha length? Prolly coulda had one less of a verse? Lately, I’ve been more bored wit three verses & feel more of tha one, two-verse songs… Damn, anotha one wit buku silence (1:02 of nothin’, at tha end)…? My Rating: 3.9


09. “Lick You Up & Down”
>>> Sounds like pure shit; not feelin’ this slow shit, wit tha gay voice effect… I have no comment on tha verses; not for me wit this shittiness… My Rating: 1.0


10. “Club Vibes” feat. ShonThang
>>> Sounds like a good vibe but all y’all need ta let dat “cut up bad” sayin’ die & stay in tha pen!! Dude who made dat song blocked me on March 14, earlier this year, after I tried promotin’ him, smh. You know people fake when they do dat blockin’ & don’t appreciate tha luv! Wit dat bein’ said, let’s hope dat shit dies down (or, at least just reverts to just “cut up”)! As far as this joint, I’m definitely feelin’ your vibe, here, on tha hook, wit tha “fulla dem pillz” & shit! Definitely what’s up wit how you keep this shit up & up! Tha 1st verse from you sounds pretty nice, as you keepin’ tha “Club Vibes” goin’! Also, shout out ta “Lil’ Rocket” out tha “Slauterhouse,” like you said; good shit! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse from ShonThang & he good; I feel what he spittin’ fa you, here! Glad he got a good vibe like you, even tho err-body have ta mention shit about “money?” Keepin’ it movin’ wit you on tha 3rd verse, here (almost thought it was gon be a minute of silence!) & this shit sounds nice, once again! Lol @ how you point out tha “‘90s babies goin’ wild,” here. I hope tha ‘80s “babies” continue ta have non-stop energy! I know I gon have it! My Rating: 4.3


11. “Nightmares”
>>> Been meanin’ ta say, tha beat tag, I can’t tell who it iz; neva heard it b4? They’re on this release a bunch of times… Iz it you? I remember you produce, at times… Anyway, hearin’ tha hook & it cool, ova this street-soundin’ beat… Hearin’ tha 1st verse & it str8; hold it down… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse & it aight; just sounds like everyday-soundin’ lyrics, tho, which don’t really spark my excitement… My Rating: 3.7


Overall: Thought you did yo shit on this Up Season 2, ya heard me? Only had two shitty songs on here, thanx to tha auto-tune. Tha average rating of this release woulda been 6/10’s higher if those songs weren’t on here. Either way, glad you keepin’ dat DCF shit alive, as well as tha heat you bring to tha streetz! Keep it up, Rich, p.k.a. Puppy!

© 2017 CD Review (Review #1,757) reviewed on 9.19.2017 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “Press Play”
>>> Sounds like a nice beat start from Austin, here… Hope it ain’t gon be on that wack shit like tha previous CD I just reviewed… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds like fast-ass rappin’… I’ono, coulda been slower? Ain’t thank you was fast like this, Austin… Likin’ tha “on lean, on lean, on lean” part; 24 more dayz!! My Rating: 3.6


02. “Run It 2” feat. Hot Boi Nook & Shon Thang
>>> Likin’ tha beat start; sounds unique in tha beginning, especially that tha sound’s quietly in tha background… Tha hook simple but nice ova this beat… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds nice ta hear, here… Tha 2nd verse ain’t too bad, here, as it flows wit tha track ta proceed with itself… Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and it ain’t bad, as well; I can dig it in some wayz… And, tha 4th verse ain’t bad; y’all vibin’ in a nice way, of course… My Rating: 3.8


03. “Better Than You” feat. Blammer.Santana
>>> Fuck this auto-tune bullshit; no comment! My Rating: 1.0


04. “Countin’” feat. Hot Boi Nook & Blammer.Santana
>>> Sounds a lil’ catchy but I’mma pretend it’s a guilty pleasure of bein’ gay, here, wit this money shit, on tha hook… Tha beat ain’t too bad; borderline Louisiana, borderline mainstream… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds catchy wit tha Rouge livin’, here… I’ono about tha 2nd verse, here; not inta tha “money long” bullshit and all dat… Neva do I see any “long money” headed my way, smh! I’ono, Austin, but tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse sounds a lil’ betta… My Rating: 2.8


05. “Stuntman” feat. Shon Thang & Hot Boi Nook
>>> Sounds like a catchy hook but then, tha “money” shit comes into play and I just call it a “guilty pleasure.” Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds nice wit headin’ “to tha sto;” I like those times in tha Rouge… Sounds like a lot goin’ on durin’ tha 2nd ½ of tha 1st verse? Holy shit… I’ono, but my reaction sounds all mixed… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s decent, here… Gotta luv “Silverleaf,” too; shout out ta Sundown! Keepin’ it movin’ wit tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ nice, too… My Rating: 3.4


06. “187”
>>> Lemme just skip this auto-tuned bullshit… My Rating: 1.1


07. “Racked Up”
>>> Almost thought it was tha same track as tha previous one, fa a second… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it decent wit this betta-than-usual beat, here… And, Gee Money on tha 2nd verse (Pimpin’, dat iz), soundin’ decent; not-too-bad track, overall… My Rating: 3.5


08. “Drummin’” feat. Drumm Gang
>>> Sounds like a nice beat from Austin, here… A good-soundin’ hook, minus tha “money” bullshit… I’ono, I ain’t really got much ta say about this… Just sounds like a mainstream rap song, here… Tha rest of this iz ehh; no need for a comment… My Rating: 3.1


½time: A 2.8-rated CD, so far… A lil’ betta than tha previous CD, but no bangerz, at tha moment…


09. “Designer” feat. Hot Boi Nook & Shon Thang
>>> Not likin’ tha background vocals in tha beginning, so far… Almost thought I was gon skip it ‘cause it sounds gay… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it ain’t bad, here… Tha beat kinda ehh but not too bad… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s bleh; repetitive and nothin’ special for me, here… Tha 2nd verse ain’t anythang fa me; not feelin’ these rhymes… My Rating: 2.2


10. “Swishincash”
>>> Kinda gives me tha same vibe as tha previous track… Hearin’ tha beginning and it’s ehh… Nothin’ really poppin’ wit this one but it ain’t too bad… My Rating: 2.7


11. “Like Percy”
…Keith? >>> Sounds like random rhymes on tha 1st verse… Oh, “No Limit like Percy,” as far as Miller (Master P). Would I have bet that it was “Percy” Keith? Yeah, but I know I woulda lost ‘cause tha underrated neva win, smh! Decent lil’ track but nothin’ ta really say… My Rating: 3.2


12. “Bigpunpimpin’”
>>> Sounds like a nice beat, here; I can dig it… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it ain’t bad, here… Kinda diggin’ this hook, even tho it gives me a mainstream feel… And, we got tha 2nd verse, here, soundin’ like a decent verse, too… My Rating: 3.7


13. “Ghost” feat. Truu, Hot Boi Nook & Shon Thang
>>> Back to tha full-on mainstream sound, here… Wanna say it’s catchy, but not for a Louisiana song; not at all! Decent lil’ hook, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s not bad; can’t really say much… Tha 2nd verse ain’t bad, here; just lettin’ this play through without sayin’ much… Tha 3rd verse ehh; don’t have anythang ta say… My Rating: 2.3


14. “Bootup” feat. Da Real Gee Money & Scotty Corleone
>>> A nice, upbeat vibe, here, but I ain’t fuckin’ wit this a-tuned 1st verse… I like tha flow and tha intensity, but too bad tha gay voice had ta fuck it up! Hearin’ tha hook and it simple; nothin’ much goin’ on wit it… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s ehh… Got Gee Money (Da Real Gee Money) on tha 3rd verse, here, soundin’ nice ta hear, at least; see what talent brings? Gotta feel what he bringin’ with a NORMAL voice! And, Mr. Cain (Scotty) on tha 4th verse, comin’ through wit some nice shit ova this beat, too! A mixed review fa me, overall, due to tha shitty-ass auto-tune! Prolly woulda been a 4.5 if there was none of dat! My Rating: 2.6


15. “Favor”
>>> Beat kinda sounds like it has a ‘90s vibe to it, mixed with tha current sounds of today… Almost thought it was gon be a lil’ decent but I’m not diggin’ tha voice on tha hook… Like, literally, I’ono what it iz with today’s music but I can barely put tha voices with tha faces, these dayz, smh… My Rating: 2.0


16. “Playa Ways”
>>> Not diggin’ tha voice in tha beginning, here… Hearin’ tha hook and, once again, it has a ‘90s vibe to it, mixed with today’s sounds… Still, y’all can do betta wit tha voices, at times… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it sounds nice wit all these valuable items… Ick at referencin’ “Swag Surfin’”; eight years later, here we are! Much-betta reference with “25 Lighters”, at least! My Rating: 2.5


Overall: No 4.0’s, smh… Nothin’ too on-n-poppin’ wit this CD, here… Y’all gotta go back to tha old, Baton Rouge sound, not this mainstream-soundin’ shit. Other than that, keep grindin’…

Review #1,756: Off Tha Meter "Chapter 1: Only The Beginning"

Reviewed on 9.19.2017 (Review #1,756)


I was doin’ okay with tha reviewz, recently ‘til Baton Rouge producer/rapper, Austin On Tha Track, was murdered, last month. It threw my consistency off a lil’ bit and then, Da Real Gee Money got killed a month later… Finally, I think I got this, again… This and tha next two CD reviewz gon be related to those two deaths… This first one’s from two years ago and iz Off Tha Meter, or sometimes Meter Gang, Chapter 1: Only The Beginning, released on Meter Gang & Crook Muzik Music Group. Tha 2015 version of Off Tha Meter was Shon Thang, CJ Santana, DJae, Austin Rashaad, Gee Money Pimpin’ & Hot Boi Nook… Start Time: 5:40 PM | End Time: 6:10 PM

© 2017 CD Review (Review #1,756) reviewed on 9.19.2017 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “TakeOva (Intro)”
>>> Likin’ tha “slime ball” noun for homie, here… In 2015, I ain’t know none of dat “slime” shit till last year, with A1 Wissel sayin’ it. That was tha 1st time I done heard it… Good intro but as far as tha beginning voice, I’ont think I gon tolerate this voice effect shit… Not diggin’ tha hook wit this “we don’t fuck around wit you broke guys” shit; not a money person, here… Sounds betta wit tha 1st verse but I gon scroll through this… Tha 2nd verse listenable, at least; can’t complain here… My Rating: 2.1


02. “I’on Trust Y’all”
>>> Austin On Tha Track track, here… How about, “And, I’on really fuck wit [this auto-tune]?” A lil’ fast-rapped 1st verse, here? Same thang wit tha 2nd verse… My Rating: 1.1


03. “I’m Da Man”
>>> I’ono, just a basic hook and beat, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and this too boring fa me; same rhymes from every rapper these dayz, smh… Tha 2nd verse don’t got no interest fa me, neither… My Rating: 1.3


04. “Pull Up”
>>> Not too inta this basic beat and tha hook sounds like a random, cheesy, hyped-up track… My Rating: 1.8


05. “Romantic Love”
>>> I’ono…, not really for me, here… Tha hook may sound catchy fa othaz but a Louisiana “love” track? Naw… My Rating: 1.5


06. “Real Niggas Only”
>>> I ain’t toleratin’ this slow, long, auto-tuned shit… My Rating: 1.0


07. “Over Wit”
>>> Just… boring… Smh @ tha final verse wit auto-tune! My Rating: 1.2


½time: Expected a lot betta, especially since I knew Garin (Gee Money Pimpin’) & Austin On Tha Track since 2010… Y’all were so much betta wit “Ootin’ N You Bootin’” and all dem Baton Rouge-soundin’ songs. It’s a shame how err-thang have ta sound like mainstream-soundin’ bullshit music… A 1.4-rated CD so far; really?


08. “‘Bout Dat Life” feat. Max Minelli & Lee Banks
>>> Austin track… Luckily, some effort on tha 1st verse, here, but tha auto-tune kills it on tha hook, smh; always somethin’! Shame that we’re a fuckin’ decade inta that auto-tune shit, now, and it’s still goin’?! Why?!? Only liked it for a YEAR! It’s 10, now!! Ahhhhhhhhh! Good job from Max on tha 2nd verse; at least he neva wack! Same thang wit Lee Banks! You needed a rating boost so y’all recruited them fa tha track? Good pickin’ but neva should be ova cheatin’ tha ratings! My Rating: 2.3


09. “Hol’Up”
>>> Sounds a lil’ boring wit tha hook and how y’all comin’ through wit this… Honestly, it sounds like a dried-down version of y’all tracks from ’09, ’10… A lil’ bit of a better effort on tha 1st verse wit tha “purp” and shit, at least… Tha 2nd verse ain’t too bad, neither, surprisingly… My Rating: 2.5


10. “The Smoke Out” feat. LRG & Ronnie Rap Game
>>> Boring, dry beat, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it ain’t bad, here… Tha hook ehh… Sounds like Ty Dolla $ign, at times? Kinda icky, not sticky, lol… Tha 2nd verse ain’t bad, as well… Can’t really say much, here… Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and it sounds like a lil’ bit of a catchier flow, luckily… My Rating: 2.6


11. “Pound Game Tuff” feat. Lee Banks
>>> Finally, somethin’ above-average, here! Diggin’ tha upbeat beat and tha hook pretty “tuff,” here; diggin’ it! Hearin’ tha 1st verse wit Lee Banks and it’s pretty nice; great collab, too! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s decent, here… Keepin’ it movin’ wit y’all on tha 3rd verse and it’s nice, too, as y’all keepin’ it movin’… A 4th verse, here? Only 3:25 on tha length but squeezin’ err-thang, here… Sounds like anotha good-soundin’ verse from tha Rouge… Nice job, Austin… My Rating: 4.2


12. “Kill It” feat. Scotty Cain
>>> Sounds like a good beat, once again, Austin. This what I wanted this CD to sound like, not tha dry, boring, mainstream, typical, brainwashed-soundin’ shit… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s pretty nice; I’ll stay listenin’, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and it’s not bad… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it soundin’ nice, too; glad there’s no wack shit, here… Tha rest of this nice ta hear, too… Also, this anotha nice collab, too; can’t complain… My Rating: 4.0


13. “Run It” feat. Spitta, Scotty Cain, Max Minelli, Deezy Cain & Ree-Up
>>> Kickin’ it off wit Spitta on tha 1st verse, here, wit an anticipatin’ beat start! See, this what y’all CD ‘pose ta sound like!! Funny how some of tha sounds every two bars sounds like B-Real’s production on “I Be Workin’” from Lil’ Cali, OJ Da Juiceman & B-Real, himself, from 2010… To me, it sounds like a sound jack but it’s still a nice lil’ track, here… Good shit from Scotty, too, holdin’ this shit down… And, of course, gotta hold it down wit Max on tha 3rd verse, too! Consistent-soundin’ 4th verse, here; definitely feelin’ tha “streetz” vibe, Deezy! And, tha 5th verse iz here and it’s soundin’ good fa da gangstaz, too… A 6th verse, here, soundin’ pretty consistent from y’all, this time; can’t complain… Tha “OTM” vibe continues wit tha 7th verse, here, soundin’ nice ta hear, too… An 8th verse, here, soundin’ good, too… A 9th verse, here, endin’ it wit Ree-Up, always soundin’ good, too; great job, err-body! Austin endin’ it off wit a 10th verse, here, doin’ tha damn thang, too… Nice job endin’ this, too; instant start, instant ending! My Rating: 4.3


14. “Meter Gang (The Anthem)”
>>> Endin’ with a shitty one? C’mon! We was just finally gettin’ some good ratings… Back to typical-soundin’ beats and shitty-soundin’ vocals… Remember how I used to always think auto-tune sounded like masturbatin’ in anotha dude’s ear? Yeah, I don’t think I’m changin’ my predictions! Basically, this just sounds like an outro… Ick, a fade-out… My Rating: 1.0


Overall: Ain’t really fuck wit this CD… Way too much a-tune & tha beats weren’t all that. When I review Louisiana music, I expect Louisiana music, not sell-out music for tha mainstream…
