Review #1,869: Krazy "Please Don't Kill Me"

Reviewed on 12.15.2019 (Review #1,869)


Got my next review up now: Krazy Please Don’t Kill Me, released in 1999 on Ruff Era Records! Start Time: 10:21 AM | End Time: 11:36 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 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!

See, I try ta be like dat to people but they have nowhere near as much luv fa me as I have fa dem, smh! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and I’m feelin’ this passion, even tho I feel jealous over it. Got tha 2nd verse from Legend Man, here, showin’ his luv fa his “dog,” as well; nice… Feelin’ how tha both of y’all comin’ through on tha 3rd verse, here; loyalty! Even wantin’ to “fit” in each other’s “Girbauds;” I feel dat! I luv when others wear my clothes; tribute to me! I really feel that outro, too; luv tha dialect of tha “dog” life! My Rating: 4.4

16. “Breathers In The Sky”
Producer: Wydell
>>> Beat’s nice, here… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and you got some good shit on tha mic, here… Hearin’ tha hook and it’s str8; not really my kinda song, tho. Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s str8, fa these legends… Not really inta tha depressin’ songs but this one has more of an upbeat beat to it, so it ain’t too bad… A long outro, here, soundin’ a lil’ emotional wit tha “R.I.P.” shit. My Rating: 3.2


17. “See Daylight” feat. Skandalust & Ed West
Producer: Ezell Swang
>>> A good lil’ beat vibe, once again, even tho tha content’s a lil’ sad… I’m likin’ Ed on tha hook, this time; like how he sings, “Daylight!” Hearin’ tha 1st verse from you and it’s good; I’ll give you your upbeat props… Got Skandulust on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit some nice rhymes; props ta her, too… Got you on tha 3rd verse, comin’ through wit okay rhymes; it str8 fa me… My Rating: 3.9


18. “Haters Everywhere” feat. Legend Man, Ed West & Sweetie

It’s prolly ‘cause it’s more on tha decent/below-average side fa me… My Rating: 3.4

Review #1,486: K-Chill "Durty Muzik"

Reviewed on 12.16.2015 (Review #1,486)


Keepin’ these reviewz goin’ while tha consistency of my unexpected, stressful dayz continues, smh! Up next iz K-Chill Durty Muzik, sponsored by Gorillaville Records. Seems like an anticipating review, right? Well, I’m taken back by tha fact that I asked K-Chill for a hard copy of this disc, and, of course, I was told I was gettin’ one, and never did. See, in 2012, before I even knew tha discs were out, I would be gettin’ them in tha mail. Now, it’s like, what happened? I don’t even feel special, anymore! But, I can see a reason why I didn’t get a hard copy: Tha total time length of tha disc’s 1:21:26? You can’t put that on a CD! Plus, didn’t K-Chill tell me once before that two-verse songs were tha way to go? How are two-verse songs seven minutes? Eight minutes? Lookin’ at tha lengths and 3:00 iz tha shortest, followed by 4:36 as tha second-shortest! I’ono, but let’s just get this over with! Start Time: 4:43 PM | End Time: 5:50 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!

© 2015 CD Review (Review #1,486) reviewed on 12.16.2015 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.



01. “Drank In The Back Of The Ride”
Nice title, produced by you… >>> Lookin’ at my editing program and it says that this iz only 2:21? Not sure why they’re all comin’ up screwed up in my iTunes, but this sounds pretty nice! Like I said, I may be disappointed that I ain’t get this fast enough (which, because of that, I ain’t get to this right away! You already know my schedules)! But, I really love how this beat sounds with this southern vibe, includin’ how you sound on tha hook! Really diggin’ tha fucked-upness of tha “drank,” includin’ this “ride!” Oh, definitely pure quality, here! Definitely diggin’ how tha verses are short and shit! Definitely nice! Might even add this to my playlist, if my dayz get better? I mean, I’m sufferin’ from depression right now, but who knows, 2016’s almost here!! My Rating: 4.9


02. “Appreciate” feat. E-Ski
This one’s produced by Solo… >>> Nice, smooth beat start, here; definitely feelin’ it! It sounds like some nice lil’ G-Funk shit from tha ‘90s (tha vibe, not really tha sounds)… Hearin’ tha 1st verse and I’m diggin’ how it’s about gettin’ fucked up on “so many nights;” I feel that! Ugh, can NY come any quicker? Fuckin’ hate how it’s 30 dayz away; WTF?! Can’t get fucked up in PA in a quality way ‘cause of how no one’s around or doesn’t stay up, smh! Here you are on tha 2nd verse and it’s soundin’ good ta hear; gotta feel what you bringin’ to tha table! Hearin’ tha 3rd verse and I already know how that feels when, “They only call when they need ya!” Exactly how I feel about this fuckin’ bitch I cared about, this year! In 2013, I bought DJ B-Real his stolen equipment; in 2015, I bought this bitch I cared about up here a fuckin’ used car! Did all that, bailed her brother outta jail and shit, and now, I had to block her today! Just a bunch of bullshit ‘cause she’d tease me about hangin’ and shmokin’! Like, it’s BAD when you tease me about goin’ to hang out and shmoke! No way does that shit fly in NY!! We shmoke all day, every day in NY, not this garbage teasin’ in PA!! And yeah, I think all tha lengths of tha songs are half of what they show in iTunes, oddly! And, as soon as tha last two seconds come up, tha length jumps to tha last two seconds, lol? Weird… My Rating: 4.7


03. “Money Rite”
I’ll prolly like this, but I’ll pass on it, altogether…; produced by you… It’s like, why a title like this when I’ve neva made a dolla off of you, yet, outta tha five years we’ve been connected?! >>> Yeah, this sounds jammin’, even though I don’t fuck wit “money” songs; still a quality-soundin’ one, though! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it’s pretty nice! Wow, tha day I go to NY, you’ll turn 40! Can’t believe you up there like that, but it’s ‘cause you an undaground king! Nice job wit tha 1st verse, here, doin’ tha damn thang! Tha 2nd verse sounds great, too; definitely diggin’ tha shorter-soundin’ verses! My Rating: 4.6


04. “Knock Sumthin’ Out”
Produced by you… >>> Oh, just luvin’ these beats!! You know that when I come out with my 3rd album about traveling, I’m gonna have y’all produce it! I definitely gotta get your touch on it!! Really-catchy hook, here; definitely feelin’ all tha energy!! Luv how customers say to me, “I want whatever you’re on!!,” in tha morning! All it iz iz energetic music and lovin’ my job! Definitely feelin’ tha 1st verse; you got this shit on lock!! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s pretty nice, so far; good shit! Unstoppable energy!! My Rating: 4.8


05. “Show No Luv” feat. E-Ski
Anotha Solo production… >>> Kinda has a ‘90s vibe to it with E-Ski singin’ on tha hook… I’m diggin’ this slow vibe; nice lil’ hook… Let’s see how you gon bring it on tha 1st verse… Sounds pretty good; can’t complain… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it ain’t bad; just slowly rides by… “I don’t wanna smoke ya weed;” I feel like that with that bitch I dealt with! Earlier, this summer, I compared her weed to one of my other connects and my other connect’s really crushed hers! My Rating: 4.2


06. “Durty South” feat. D.Fall & Big Duke
Tha D.Fall from tha ‘90s with tha Let’s Ride disc? Are they tha same? Hmm… I don’t know much on that dude, but this one’s produced by Big Duke. Gonna eat a lil’ grub, right quick; BRB… >>> Sounds like a nice lil’ vibe… Tha hook sounds pretty nice, here, strictly fa tha “durty south.” And, hearin’ tha 1st verse from you and it’s nice; always sounds like any time zone (‘90s, ‘00s)! Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s D.Fall? Lookin’ at my radio edit I have of him online and I have his location as Lafayette; could it be? Luv how he said, “I used to not smoke, but I smoke every day;” I feel that!! And, he mentioned, “Lafayette,” so it could be tha same dude! Nice lil’ collab; I’m diggin’ it… Hearin’ tha 3rd verse (Big Duke?) and it sounds nice; regular-soundin’ rappin’ fa tha “south,” here! My Rating: 4.4


07. “Rite Nah”
Produced by: Solo. >>> Sounds good; a nice, repetitive hook that’s nice ta hear… Tha 1st verse from you’s pretty good; gotta dig it… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s pretty nice, too; you keepin’ tha energy comin’! My Rating: 4.3


½time: If I would’ve gotten this CD on time, I prolly could’ve done a live review of it. However, a regular review’s still nice. Either way, I would’ve been high if I would’ve done a live review, and I know I would’ve went nuts with this! But, it iz what it iz! You’re at a 4.6 for tha CD rating, currently; that’s pure!!


08. “Yo Click Ain’t Shit” feat. Delwin
I’ono about tha collab… Maybe, that kinda thinkin’s why you ain’t fuck wit me too much, anymore? Fuckin’ wit people that call me 16 names on Twitter? Anyway, produced by you… >>> Really diggin’ tha beat, here; definitely somethin’ ta get buck to! Hook’s definitely on-n-poppin’!! Really diggin’ all this energy, especially all tha background chanting on tha 1st verse!!! Whoo!!! You really got this G-shit/club shit on lock!! Don’t really like hearin’ Delwin, but here he iz on tha 2nd verse… Okay, let’s just limit this to one sentence: “sounds good;” that’s it! Oh, it was as short as I could type this, lol! My Rating: 4.8


09. “Leave Him Home” feat. Bigg Burn
Produced by: Solo. >>> Nice and smooth, here; diggin’ this beat and tha hook… Definitely got tha smooth, slow jamz on lock, here! It’s a risk on an energetic disc, but you know how ta handle it! Can’t complain! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it’s nice and smooth; “baby”-poppin’, here… Hearin’ tha 2nd verse and it’s good ta flow on by… My Rating: 4.3


10. “Bosshoggin’”
Produced by: K-Chill. >>> Diggin’ tha vibe of bein’ fucked up on tha hook, here; good shit! Nice lil’ southern vibe with tha beat, too; can’t deny it! Hearin’ tha 1st verse and your flow feels like tha ‘90s, here; gotta luv it! Tha 2nd verse sounds nice, too; keep it goin’, Chill! My Rating: 4.4


11. “Get Fucked Up” feat. Lady Kym
Produced by: Solo. >>> Sounds like a faster vibe, like, early ‘00s-type southern music… Definitely feelin’ it, but somethin’ tells me I’m feelin’ tha rest of these tracks on here betta, as far as tha vibe? I’ono… Tha hook’s nice ta hear, especially when you gotta “get fucked up!” Hearin’ tha 1st verse from you and it’s pretty good… Tha 2nd verse’s soundin’ nice ta hear; gotta enjoy tha party! My Rating: 4.1


12. “Party All Nite”
Produced by: You & Lou. >>> Just like tha previous joint, this still sounds real nice, but I’ono if this vibe strikes me as much as tha rest of tha tracks on here… Still, nice and smooth-soundin’ hook with an okay, dry-soundin’ “party” beat… Verses are nice; I still can fuck wit it… My Rating: 4.0


13. “Swanga Train”
Produced by: You. >>> This ain’t too bad with a nice, slower beat; feelin’ this “swanga train.” Hearin’ how you “beatin’ down tha block” on tha 2nd ½ of tha hook and it’s nice… Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it’s all about swangin’ throughout this year of 2015 with this nice sound! Tha 2nd verse’s soundin’ nice on this shit, too; gotta feel what you bringin’, of course! My Rating: 4.3


14. “Get Buck”
Produced by: You & DJ Dolby D. >>> Nice way ta end it with a Barry White sample in tha beat, as well as a Pimp C sample on tha hook; excellent! Hearin’ you on tha 1st verse and it sounds nice, minus tha “money” shit that I can’t stand… Ugh, you’re mentionin’ it too much! Tha 2nd verse’s soundin’ nice, though…; can’t complain… LOL, this tha only track where tha length’s normal in my iTunes: 3:00. Most of this sounded nice ta hear, except all tha bullshit “money” shit… My Rating: 4.2


Overall: I knew this was gonna be a pretty hot CD, and it was even better than I expected! A lil’ disappointed with not gettin’ it on time and that I had to find it myself, despite my busy schedule, but I enjoyed listenin’ to it! Keep up tha great work, but, once again, WHEN YOU RELEASE A NEW CD, LET ME GET IT WHEN IT’S NEW!!!
