Review #1,152: M.A. "H.E.R.T."

Reviewed on 4.30.2012 (Review #1,152)


Wish I could’ve squeezed more reviewz in for this month, but it iz what it iz; goin’ to sleep a lil’ earlier to catch this girl Mica 2morrow! Gotta interview her for one of my projects, and you know how anticipatin’ it iz for college gurlz! :) To end off tha month of April, here’s a Jungle Records release: M.A. H.E.R.T.! Start Time: 10:55 PM | End Time: 11:23 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!

01. “Power Struggle”
>>> Time fa some “Power” beat, here… Beat makes this boring, but I like your rhymes, here, showin’ luv ta your city/tha state of Louisiana. My Rating: 3.4


02. “Bill Gates (Freestyle)” Feat. Dino
>>> This iz a lil’ betta; I like how Dino sounds on this wit his rhymin’, internet style… My Rating: 3.5


03. “Wrong”
>>> Oh, an original production from JokaBoi, here; thumbs up fa tha new music! Hearin’ how tha beat sounds wit you blendin’ in it and it sounds like it could fit into tha mainstream, in a way… My Rating: 3.7


04. “Boyz 2 Men (Block Love)”
I dunno what ta expect wit this kinda title… >>> Okay, a nice beat you chose, here; feelin’ tha “hard times” rhymes. You’re right about tha “no BET,” even though if it’s Northeast PA, that’s tha case, since I ain’t got BET. Then again, they’re, like, dead without Rap City: Tha Basement! I think this iz catchy; tha vibe makes it sound good fa tha streets. My Rating: 3.8


05. “A.C.T.”
Whoooooo!!! Kinda keep forgettin’ ‘bout this song; think I finna add it to my personal playlist! My Current Rating: 4.2


06. “I Eat Trackz”
Looks RoyDezzyish on tha title… >>> Lol @ how tha hook sounds; catchy lil’ sound, here, as you’re eatin’ your way to tha top, lol! Rhymes are not bad, either… My Rating: 3.7


07. “Kay’len 2”
>>> A baby girl start; good that you threw that in fa tha people out there. Nothin’ too special wit tha beat and tha hook, but your rhymes are good to hear… My Rating: 3.1


08. “Disgusted”
Good title; this iz one of tha words I said in one of tha final projects I did with my group, recently, so I’m lookin’ forward ta hearin’ this, in a way… >>> Decent sound; hook ain’t too bad, either, since you’re grindin’… Good rhymes to describe a “disgusted” M.A., lol. My Rating: 3.6


09. “Mrs. Do It Rite”
>>> “X-rated”? Ooh, on tha M.A. tip; lookin’ forward ta hearin’! Lol, some of tha lyrics are kinda funny, here; “I’m a fuckin’ monster…,” and then, it gets dirtier, lol!! Thumbs up fa dis; definitely gettin’ a kick outta it… My Rating: 4.0


½time: A 3.7-rated CD, currently; not too bad, as you always keep somethin’ up. I thought this was called Hert, but it’s H.E.R.T., as an acronym.


10. PSA 1
>>> Thanx fa dis lil’ skit, in tha mist of this! Oh yea, tha Twitter: @ma225; props… My Rating: N/A


11. “Pose 4 Tha Mirror”
My Current Rating: 3.8


12. “Up N Here” Feat. Gutta Baby & Uptown Redd
JokaBoi doin’ anotha beat! >>> Sounds a lil’ familiar, but I’m luvin’ this beginning beat; definitely on dat tight level!! Good shit from you, here…; hearin’ tha 2nd verse, and tha lady’s okay, but it’s soundin’ a lil’ betta, all of a sudden… Tha 3rd verse iz pretty good, too, as far as creatin’ a nice vibe. My Rating: 4.1


13. “Get Off” Feat. Lil’ P.A., Pada & Blacc
>>> Can I drink some bloody, slimy vomit? Almost passed out wit tha first few seconds; should skip, but I think I need to talk about how hot Havana Brown iz than leave certain feedback! I have ta say, good song fa you be on, though, no matter how uncomfortable I feel right now! Nothin’ personal at all; I only state opinions, so no offendingness goin’ on, here!! My Rating: 4.4


14. PSA 2
>>> A longer one… I’m likin’ what you sayin’, here; keep tha skits and PSAs comin’!! I agree wit this “lyin’” shit you talk ‘bout, here; had a self-destructed event happen to me last night, for someone that didn’t take my ratings seriously! :td My Rating: N/A


15. “I’m Out Chea” Feat. Jay Regal & Tut
Anotha JokaBoi production! >>> Oh, I rememba this from a while ago; good ta hear this on here. My Current Rating: 4.4


16. “What Cha Hustle 4” Feat. Kee Low Magnum
Production from Drako Da Beat Man, here. >>> Good, no beat tag! Oh, anotha familiar song; thumbs up! My Current Rating: 4.3


17. “T.D.H.” Feat. Stretch
Ooh, lookin’ forward ta hearin’ a Stretch collab, especially wit you! >>> Iz this tha same dude from tha Savage Unit clique? It sounds more like a Jungle Records voice that sounds good, than a Savage Unit Stretch… Thumbs up fa this Stretch showin’ you luv; what else could he ask for, lol? You got some catchy shit goin’ on here, too, M.A.; lol, just randomly, puttin’ your “condom on,” lol! My Rating: 4.1


18. “2nite I Wanna Cry”
>>> Sorry, this ain’t my kinda shit, between tha hook and beat. However, listenin’ to your rhymes and they are of unfortunate content; nice job deliverin’ these rhymes… My Rating: 2.6


Overall: Better than I expected; you got pretty lucky wit tha 2nd ½! Keep up wit droppin’ tracks wit original production!!

Review #1,138: Pada "Free Boo Boo (Promo Mixtape)"

Reviewed on 3.30.2012 (Review #1,138)


Gettin’ some more reviewz done… Here’s Pada Free Boo Boo (Promo Mixtape); Pada iz wit Jungle Records. Start Time: 9:08 AM | End Time: 9:32 AM

01. Intro
>>> You actually sound like M.A. wit tha voice; good intro. My Rating: N/A


02. “1 N A Million” Feat. Ya Yo
>>> Nice for a really slow beat; “did niggaz dirty”? I was gonna ask, do people do you “dirty”? Like, how do you succeed, without people bein’ bitches, wit sellin’ shit? Tha Ya Yo gurl sounds good wit her ‘90s-soundin’ voice and delivery, on tha hook. My Rating: 3.8


03. “Steppin’” Feat. Uptown Redd
I remember this; thanx for M.A. for sendin’ it to me! Sounds like a catchy song that’s okay wit tha whole “steppin’” thing; at least you’re squashin’ people. My Current Rating: 3.6


04. “Jacc Boy” Feat. Corday
>>> Sounds like an okay flow; almost sounds like I heard this kinda flow before, wit tha “robbery” beginning… Good 2nd verse from tha Corday dude, “dressed in all black.” Feelin’ these “drugs” rhymes, especially when it comes ta “lookin’” fa ‘em! My Rating: 3.6


05. “CNN” Feat. Jay Regal
>>> Didn’t know what ta expect wit this; I like how it’s a trap anthem. Once again, anotha really slow beat ta rap off of… Jay Regal, lol wit tha “chair” that he had “ta grab fa” all tha “money;” good shit. My Rating: 3.7


06. “R-N-U” Feat. M.A.
>>> Good beginning from M.A.; keep it goin’… Oh, a hook; sounds good. Lol @ tha “university” part; sounds like a catchy part for such a random word, lol! Not bad wit your part on tha 1st verse, Pada; M.A. has a slightly-betta verse on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through by ownin’ tha track. My Rating: 3.9


07. “Tell It How It Is” Feat. Ty
Bonus track @ #07? >>> I don’t really like hearin’ tha word “real” quite a lot, in a song, so this iz more on tha below-average/okay side for me… Tha rhymes are okay; guess features make tha songs better? My Rating: 3.1


08. “Clutchin’” Feat. Ty, Dino & Dogan
>>> Young Jack doin’ production, here; sounds like a hot beat. Tha hook sounds pretty tight; guess original production helps? Ooh, “Aimin’ at yo neck, tryna rip away ya vocal box;” gettin’ rid of dat ‘Me-Luv-Dick Tune’! I like how this iz on a gangsta tip; seems quite like a mission, too, wit tha music. Tha 3rd verse sounds like it could be tha best fa me; lol @ tha “urinal” part. One of my group assignments iz based on a urinal, for class, lol; really lookin’ forward ta filmin’ new things! Keepin’ this shit goin’ wit some gangsta shit; damn @ this over-five-minute length… My Rating: 4.0


½time: A 3.7-rated CD; just like other Jungle Records CDs, this iz decent, too.


09. “My Jost Was Hard (Skit)”
>>> Likin’ that it’s a skit… Oh, maybe it should’ve been called a freestyle? I don’t know what a “jost” iz but it sounds good in these rhymes… My Rating: 4.1


10. “Blessed Child (Problems)” Feat. Ty & Lil’ Faron
Not really my kinda title… >>> I dunno why, but this beat start sounds really hot, whateva it iz; good pick! Tha 1st verse sounds kinda typical, wit tha whole money, money, money shit… Tha hook’s okay, too; thought it would be a lil’ more catchier, wit betta lyrics, on a beat sound like dis… Tha 2nd verse iz a lil’ betta; nothin’ really ta comment about it… A lil’ betta wit tha 3rd verse, too; sounds like they’re reppin’ nicely fa tha team. Actually, hearin’ tha hook again, and it’s soundin’ like a great hook; pretty catchy on this beat! My Rating: 4.1


11. “Game Fukked Up”
Finally, a solo song? >>> Beginning sounds good; rhymes sound good on this beat, too. My Rating: 3.8


12. “Toat That Iron” Feat. Blacc
Bonus? >>> What’s wit tha jacked beat? Yuck… Likin’ that Blacc dude; hope he raps on some original-produced music… Can’t really comment on you, here, ‘cause tha beat’s jacked, which my interest’s really at 0. I’m only commentin’ on Blacc ‘cause this tha 1st time I’m hearin’ him; glad he got some gangsta shit on here! My Rating: 3.3


13. “Dope Rental” Feat. Lil’ Faron
>>> I like this title and how this sounds, for what it iz… Oh no, all this money-related shit on tha 1st verse; time ta skim through tha song! Tha feature’s okay, here, but doesn’t really do anything wit my interest… My Rating: 3.0


14. “Small Circle” Feat. Lil’ Faron
>>> Sounds like somethin’ I can usually hear about how people are assholes, and that you only mess wit a few; nothin’ new. My Rating: 2.7


15. “All Black Everything” Feat. Dude Blitz & Bear
Kinda bleh wit tha title… >>> Yea, anotha one that sounds like nothin’ new… A lil’ more excitin’ wit tha 2nd verse, as far as, basically, tha flow… Tha 3rd verse’s a lil’ betta, but tha content’s still boring. My Rating: 2.9


16. “Nikki”
>>> Ehh, nothin’ that great; not really into family-member songs, especially in rap music, especially in underground music! My Rating: 2.3


17. “Steppin’ (Clean)” Feat. Uptown Redd
See #3 fa tha review!


Overall: Okay, but tha 2nd ½ was more below-average for me.

15.       “Nikki” 2.3
14.       “Small Circle” Feat. Lil’ Faron 2.7
