Review #1,887: Mr. Ivan "Resurrection"
Reviewed on 12.20.2019 (Review #1,887)
Comin’
up next in my Louisiana Reviewz Marathon,
I have tha late Mr. Ivan Resurrection, released in 1999 on
Bang’n Records & Don B Productions…! Now, yesterday marked 12 years since
Ivan passed away. For those that ain’t see tha tribute video, it’s here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZaEcCwq2Es.
It was shot at a unique place (at tha abandoned Belchertown
State School
for tha Feeble Minded in Belchertown,
MA); did it in honor of Ivan (tha
look)! Now, with that bein’ said, here goes tha review! Start Time: 11:54 PM | End
Time: 1:07 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!

Review #982: Don B "Compilation"
Reviewed on 6.08.2011 (Review #982)
Keepin’ it goin’ wit my 5th review for today: Don B “Compilation”; lookin’ forward ta hearin’ this “Compilation” album!! Start Time: 9:28 PM | End Time: 9:58 PM
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.

Glad they repeat a few times, too!! Tha 1st verse’s soundin’ real nice wit this paranoia-type rappin’ wit tha bravery and kick-assness when it comes ta deliverin’ shit about tha hook and this attitude!!
Ooh, here’s tha 2nd verse, soundin’ like a New Orleans version of Sam I Am, mixed wit a lil’ bit of Mystikal!!! Nothin’ gets betta than somethin’ like dis!!! Damn, even some rapid-fire rappin’?!? It’s all ova; this iz easily a perfect-rated song!!! I don’t even have ta hear tha rest!!! Tha 3rd verse iz A+, too; sounds like a good, Tupac-soundin’ voice wit some gutta-ass shit fa tha streetz!!!

15. All Natural “Come Back My Way”
Let’s see what’s good wit dis one! >>> LOL, fade-in beat intro, again, dat sounds like R&B music? Why iz this R&B shit doin’ here? No less, it’s almost five minutes long! Not really my interest, unfortunately. My Rating: 2.5
16. CoaCoa “Over Lovin’ You”
This dude’s back… >>> Damn, now it sounds like a mix of Lite FM!
I dunno if I like this betta than tha previous song… I guess tha Lite FM/Kenny G-soundin’ background music, mixed wit some Urban beats, iz trickin’ me inta likin’ it. However, tha shorter length iz betta than tha previous song’s long length! My Rating: 2.6
17. Me-4-U “7-Thousand Miles”
Hope it’s not anotha R&B song… >>> Yea, this iz worse and tha longest outta ‘em; not much goin’ on here, either… My Rating: 2.2
18. Top “Top Of Top”
LOL, a lil’ sampler; smh, now, it’s a short length? >>> Sounds good fa tha undaground, here! My Rating: 4.3

Tha hook sounds catchy; I dunno about those “big mouth” people out there, ya dig? Tha 2nd verse iz continuin’ this hot shit wit a lil’ bit of gangsta lyrics; thumbs up fa dis! My Rating: 4.3
06. G-Quikk Feat. Mickdonovan “Smokin’ ‘Em Like A Good Joint”
I really like dis title and these artists look like they gon do tha damn thang!! >>> Sounds good wit tha beat; lookin’ forward ta hearin’!! Really likin’ this beginning wit tha hook and tha title; gotta luv tha inhalin’ sounds!! Ooh, nice 1st verse wit tha delivery and tight-ass rhymes!! Tha title really says it all when it comes ta other rappers, ya heard me?!? Tha 2nd verse iz gutta, too; nothin’ but dat shit dat you gotta luv!! Ooh, some mo shit comin’ through in tha 2nd verse from someone else (one of tha two of y’all); definitely a tight collaboration, here!! Couldn’t’ve asked for a betta description of tha 504 hood!! Tha outro sounds good, too; all about bein’ alert! My Rating: 4.8
07. Partners-N-Crime/Prime Time “Badd Mutherfuckers”
LOL @ tha spellin’ of tha “muthafuckaz” and tha artist name says, “P-N-C/Primetime;” I originally put Partners-N-Crime but I’ll put tha double name. >>> This sounds good fa PNC; nice beat, good rhymes, and you already know, some shit ta stir up controversy in tha undaground Rap world, lol!

Wonder who dis iz… >>> LOL @ tha sad, fade-in beat intro… This iz a sad-soundin’ song but for some reason, I’m likin’ how tha beat sounds… Tha hook sounds good fa a lady bein’ added to tha vocals; nice combo. Ooh, tha lady breaks down inta extra singin’ toward tha near-end, too; get ‘em, gurl! My Rating: 3.9

11. Calico Feat. Pinnicle & Shaka “Regardless”
Iz this Calico Calicoe The Champ? Wonder what dis iz… >>> No, doesn’t sound like Calicoe, at first, but it’s soundin’ decent, currently, wit an okay beat… LOL, tha hook came outta nowhere and sounds just as good, only betta… Tha 2nd verse sounds much betta wit this voice and tha gangsta shit goin’ on; keep this descriptive shit comin’!! Ooh, hearin’ Calico rappin’, now, and it’s soundin’ good; guess this iz a different dude, afta all, lol? Nice collaboration, overall, guys! My Rating: 4.2
12. 2XL Feat. Big Merk & Mr. Ivan “Runnin’”
Lookin’ like a mega-collab wit a lil’ ova five minutes on tha length! >>> This iz definitely tha shit; gotta feel tha “runnin’” theme from tha “cops!!” Really luvin’ those gutta vocals near tha end of tha hook!! Glad they repeat a few times, too!! Tha 1st verse’s soundin’ real nice wit this paranoia-type rappin’ wit tha bravery and kick-assness when it comes ta deliverin’ shit about tha hook and this attitude!!
Ooh, here’s tha 2nd verse, soundin’ like a New Orleans version of Sam I Am, mixed wit a lil’ bit of Mystikal!!! Nothin’ gets betta than somethin’ like dis!!! Damn, even some rapid-fire rappin’?!? It’s all ova; this iz easily a perfect-rated song!!! I don’t even have ta hear tha rest!!! Tha 3rd verse iz A+, too; sounds like a good, Tupac-soundin’ voice wit some gutta-ass shit fa tha streetz!!!

14. Dyseptive “Who You Gonna Blame”
I like how this artist name looks; this should be some good shit! >>> Ooh, G-Funk sound outta nowhere, lol, as well as tha hook! Rhymes are soundin’ good, too; glad this dude showin’ luv ta tha 504 Rap scene, too! LOL, long-ass song dat serves its purpose!! My Rating: 4.3
15. All Natural “Come Back My Way”
Let’s see what’s good wit dis one! >>> LOL, fade-in beat intro, again, dat sounds like R&B music? Why iz this R&B shit doin’ here? No less, it’s almost five minutes long! Not really my interest, unfortunately. My Rating: 2.5
16. CoaCoa “Over Lovin’ You”
This dude’s back… >>> Damn, now it sounds like a mix of Lite FM!
I dunno if I like this betta than tha previous song… I guess tha Lite FM/Kenny G-soundin’ background music, mixed wit some Urban beats, iz trickin’ me inta likin’ it. However, tha shorter length iz betta than tha previous song’s long length! My Rating: 2.617. Me-4-U “7-Thousand Miles”
Hope it’s not anotha R&B song… >>> Yea, this iz worse and tha longest outta ‘em; not much goin’ on here, either… My Rating: 2.2

Review #544: Swamp Click "Swamp Click"
Reviewed on 6.18.2010 (Review #544)
Tha next review I have on deck iz Swamp Click “Swamp Click”; lookin’ interestin’!! Start Time: 8:22 PM | End Time: 9:01 PM
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) so 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. “Money”
Startin’ off wit a typical topic. However, let’s see how y’all’ll put it down! >>> Tha beginning’s pretty smooth here wit tha beat. Ooh, tha hook sounds REAL HOT wit tha “smokin’ on a pound” part!! Y’all DEFINITELY doin’ ya thang here…!! Tha 1st verse sounds good, holdin’ down this laidback, G-Funk, undaground Louisiana Rap shit!! Tha 2nd verse sounds like it’s holdin’ it down fa music itself, lol. My Rating: 4.3
02. “Big Balla”
I like dis title; how will y’all sound? >>> Anotha laidback sound here. Tha 1st verse sounds catchy wit tha lyrics. Tha hook sounds cool; I like tha singin’ of tha title, lol. Tha 2nd verse sounds good wit holdin’ tha sound down, ya dig. “Remix?” This iz really a “remix?” I dunno… But, tha 3rd verse sounds GR8 wit this dude from tha Swamp Click on it! Gr8 representin’ lyrics here… Glad y’all “smoke” good on tha outro; luv y’all! My Rating: 4.3
03. Drop A Tip
A skit? >>> LOL, it iz and it sounds like a slowly fadin’-in intro… Sounds like snitches… Interestin’ skit. My Rating: N/A

Let’s hear how tha anger comes out! >>> Shit, yea, some anger comin’ outta tha intro!! Tha beat’s pretty gutta too!! I thought tha sounds reminded me of tha Mystikal “Here I Go” beat for a second… Tha 1st verse sounds like it gon be a gangsta scene! Tha hook iz DEFINITELY gangsta wit tha shootin’! Shit, yea, “a lyrical driveby” on tha 2nd verse! REAL GOOD shit comin’ outta this verse! Tha 3rd verse iz areas fulla “haters” everywhere! I like tha talkin’ on tha outro here… My Rating: 4.2

LOL, I thought it was tha same title for a second but it’s a “rehab” from tha last joint! >>> Lots of “Player Hater Rehab” calls… Weird, lol. My Rating: N/A
06. “Sorry”
Not sure if I’ll like dis wit a title like dis… >>> Kinda weird for a start; tha hook has singin’ in it so I dunno how good dis iz… Tha 1st verse iz “sorry” fa what’s goin’ on. Tha 2nd verse has a betta flow but it ain’t for me. I like tha personal, real-life shit that’s bein’ spit though. Tha 3rd verse iz personal too. Okay, okay @ tha long-ass ending! My Rating: 2.2
½time: Tha previous joint kinda knocked tha average CD rating down to a 3.8 but don’t worry… I know y’all’ll get dat rating back up! It’s just, dat song wasn’t for me. But, keep doin’ ya thang!
07. The Summite
Let’s see dis… >>> I dunno what ta say. I guess it goes wit tha previous song? My Rating: N/A
08. “The American Way”
5:43 on tha length so let’s see… >>> Slow start. No comment yet but tha 1st verse’s pretty good wit tha hood lyrics. I just wish this was a lil’ catchier… Tha beat has a G-Funk feel to it… Tha hook’s a lil’ dry wit tha singer…; kinda boring. No comment on tha 2nd verse either… I guess I’ll just wait ‘til tha next 3:09… Tha 3rd verse has real good lyrical content but it’s not for me. Tha 4th verse also’s a lil’ ehh… My Rating: 2.4
09. “In The Studio (A Taste Of Gumbo)”
Hope this iz betta… >>> Tha beat’s pretty smooth. Tha intro was like 1:05. Damn, a talkin’ intro to tha song just came outta nowhere! Now, I hear tha real beat and it sounds pretty good! “Hype shit?” I hope so!! Tha 1st verse sounds pretty gutta here wit tha perspectives wit thangz; good shit! There’s anotha part to tha 1st verse here and it sounds GR8; “soldja” shit! Nice job deliverin’ dat part of tha 1st verse!! Here’s tha 3rd part of tha 1st verse and it’s soundin’ good once again!! LOL, here’s a lady on tha 4th part, doin’ her thang too! LOL @ tha endin’ wit “we don’t give a fuckin’ shit!” Good-ass shit!! My Rating: 4.5
10. “SC”
A self-titled joint? Let’s see how good it iz!! >>> Tha beat sounds good… REALLY reppin’ “SC” to tha fullest in tha hook here; good-ass shit once again!! Tha 1st verse sounds like it’s tryin’ ta make people be addictive to these rhymes; very consistent!! Anotha joint wit consistent verses… Tha 2nd part of tha 1st verse’s soundin’ good wit holdin’ “SC” down! Here’s tha 3rd part of tha 1st verse already and it’s soundin’ good, “passin’ tha ‘gar!” I hear tha hook and once again, good shit! Tha 2nd verse sounds good; feelin’ how y’all comin’ through wit representin’ for tha “click!” Tha 2nd part of tha 2nd verse iz all about tha “kapa”s to tha fullest, doin’ “buku” thangz! Here’s tha 3rd part of tha 2nd verse and it’s pretty interestin’ fa tha hood here when it comes ta encounterin’! My Rating: 4.3
11. Shoutz Out
Oh, tha “shoutz” already? So, tha last two jointz must be radio edits? >>> Tha beat’s pretty smooth here. I’m lookin’ forward ta hearin’ y’all shout people out! Good shit… I like how tha 2nd dude sounds. My Rating: N/A
12. “American Way (Instrumental)”
LOL, this has an instrumental? LOL… It doesn’t bad for a song now dat I’m hearin’ tha beat alone. See #8 fa tha review!
13. “Sorry (Instrumental)”
Damn, this one too? Why tha low-rated songs gettin’ instrumentals, yet, this one havin’ tha horrible hook?
See #6 fa tha review!
Overall: This CD was pretty good. Two jointz weren’t for me so it kinda knocked tha average CD rating a lil’ bit. But, I enjoy y’all and I want y’all ta keep doin’ ya thang!!
