Review #367: Troy "Triggaman" Route "Thuggin' It & Lovin' It" DVD

Reviewed on 12.24.2009 (Review #367)




It’s FrankieThaLuckyDog here… ‘Bout ta try somethin’ new today. That’s right! I’m all about creatin’ ideas and new thingz fa myself!! Tha Thuggin’ It & Lovin’ It DVD, I gon review it! Not sure how I gon format and type err-thang so I prolly just gon see what happens! I picture myself typin’ notes and shit; what will exactly be rated? See, if I had tha actual hard copy, I would be able ta tell by chapters and base it off of dat. I know it has been out fa a while but I neva got tha chance ta review it… Since tha year’s ending, I gon get it out da way, ya dig! So anyway, here goes my 1st eva DVD review fa Troy “Triggaman” Route Thuggin’ It & Lovin’ It DVD!! Start Time: 2:25 PM | End Time: 6:57 PM



Quick Note: I rate each scene from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion!! I only please myself wit my ratings!! I don’t care what’s what! As long as it’s cool and good enough for me to like it! I look for swag/style and then tha storyline. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings (if a scene 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 see it) so any scene can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> ” iz what I’m sayin’ before I see tha scene. Anything after I type “ >>> ” iz what I think of tha scene while I’m watching it.

© 2009 DVD Review by FrankieThaLuckyDog. Other than tha main artist or affiliated people with tha main artist, this review iz to not be used in anyone else’s words!


01. “Intro” (0:00 – 2:45)
Startin’ off this DVD… I may make a ½ time when an hour goes by or somethin’ but lemme just start this right, no less at 2:25 PM (Baton Rouge area code)!! >>>

0:08: Tha graffiti looks cool and tha bridge looks nice! I really like tha footage and I just saw tha wall ta where DJ B-Real was standin’ in one pic!

0:57: Here comes tha music at :57; gotta luv tha undaground BR style! I hear C-Loc speakin’; good shit! Now, I see him as there’s random scenes passin’. Tha song sounds pretty cool too fa this shit!

1:33: Ooh, a Way 3000 Got Pills 2 (Still Rollin’) lil’ poster/blanket poster? Good shit!

1:41: Look at all dat kush and cash!! Tha pistol iz kinda raw though… That’s definitely a raw pic!

1:50: Ooh, look at tha Parish Prison! I know a bunch of my boyz went in there and now, I get ta see tha outside of it; at least it’s red (my favorite color)! All tha scenes throughout tha following 50 seconds blended in cool fa this intro! My Rating: 4.5


02. “Sherwood” (2:45 – 7:30)
Onto tha start (well really, tha next part fa me)! What could go down in Sherwood? I’m not too familiar about it so it gon DEFINITELY be good ta see it!! >>>

2:55: I hear Kevin Gates “Streets Of BR” in tha back; good background music! While I’m watchin’ it, I believe tha player I’m usin’ (Windows Media Player) might be a lil’ off wit tha audio and video? I don’t know but I’m glad I hear hear/see it regardless of matchin’ or not!
EDIT: I switched to my Mac computer (where I make my commercials) and it’s playin’ back normal now!

3:21: I like seein’ tha Coogi shit this dude’s rockin’ (hat and shirt)! I wish I can see more of it in person!

3:25: Keepin’ tha swag up, I see someone wit a TIGHT blue/white polo right now, ya dig! Looks like a money obsession wit tha Coogi person 10 seconds later, lol.

4:04: Wit all dat money flyin’ down on tha ground, you should DEFINITELY have tha money ta do business wit me, ya dig! LOL @ tha part at 4:10/4:12 wit “my Coogi gettin’ tired;” how? Tha saggin’ iz dumtarted at times, lol.

4:46: Huh? What’s up wit takin’ your pants off??? It maybe hot out but why be in your boxers and shit in tha hood??? As I mentioned before wit tha “saggin’ iz dumtarted” part, I referred dat to tha dude at 4:59 who’s pourin’ tha money on tha dude in his boxers. I give props to those that sag, smoke weed, pop pillz, etc. ‘cause I try to impress people wit what I do, regardless of what they do. Even “take baths in this shit [money],” huh, lol? WTF? He’s rubbin’ on him?? Why iz this a lil’ on tha gay side? Why iz there no criticizin’?!? You KNOW if I did that, I would get criticized within a second but because it’s someone else, it’s okay?

5:30 & 5:57: Dat gunshootin’ was a lil’ scary; why so random?

6:34: Sounds like a freestyle! Nice scenes in tha hood and this iz DEFINITELY a nice freestyle for tha hood! It actually looks a lot betta now dat I see tha picture betta than it mixed up and shit! My Rating: 3.8


03. “Triggerman” (7:30 – 8:52)
What could this place be? Real curious as this DVD now progresses fa me! >>>

7:35: Cool ta see anotha person. However, why iz there no ID’s on who’s who? Oh wait, neva mind, that’s you (Troy “Triggerman” Route) who made this DVD! I thought it was a place fa a second, lol. That’s right, “225 all day long,” ya dig! It’s ALL in my vains!! You need ta fuck wit me ‘cause I REALLY ‘bout my Baton Rouge shit all day, ya heard me!! I like tha background effect of red and white ‘cause it reminds me of my commercials when I do tha “overdrive” effect and make it look like a heat wave! Glad you checked inta tha DVD! You seem like a cool dude; you KNOW you can do business wit me anytime you like, ya dig! Oh yea and tha song in tha background sounded good; gr8 editin’! My Rating: 4.2


04. “Valley Park” (8:52 – 12:30)
Now here’s a destination! I wonder who gon pop outta here? DEFINITELY lookin’ forward ta it! Although saggin’ iz acceptable, I don’t need ta see any pants comin’ off again!! >>>

9:09: Damn, no offense, but are there any Autistic people in Baton Rouge? I feel like err-body on tha DVD all hyper and shit! Example: I’m Autistic and I may act real gr8 on film. However, comin’ through hyper iz quite hard at times fa me. Either way, it’s a DEFINITE plus that y’all in Baton Rouge have an Autistic person on yo side ‘cause it DEFINITELY shines a light!! Anyway, tha dude in tha purple shirt encountered a homeboy; good shit (who are they?)!

9:48: Oh no, tha choppa!! I don’t know how someone would get a phobia ta holdin’ a gun! I feel like I have a phobia and would neva touch a gun (no need to)! Speakin’ of Autism, what’s up wit all tha talkin’ all at once? This goes back ta previous times wit me: I’ll sit wit people and they’ll all be talkin’ ta one anotha all at once and exclude me. Shid, if someone iz extremely social, why be anti-social on me? I’m tha best one wit all tha talent!! Good hood scene but does tha gun have ta be in there? It’s not like there’s a fight or nothin’!

10:47: Let’s see tha whips… They’re decent; no need ta “highlight” them, lol.

11:08: Back to tha hood scene; let’s see… At 11:46, if y’all “got some hot shit comin’ out,” y’all DEFINITELY need ta get me a copy of each CD/DVD, etc.! You KNOW I got my undaground Louisiana Rap radio show, Tha Louisiana Pit, at my college station! Shout out ta my college station fa winnin’ “Best College Station In Tha Area” fa eight years (I think) in a row now! You KNOW how we puttin’ it down!! Tha “Middle Section” dude dat came in at 12:12 has a cool grill; his dreads get a plus too. Nice lil’ look at Valley Park although tha gun could’ve been subtracted once again. My Rating: 3.9


05. “Max Minelli” (12:37 – 14:03)
Ooh, a Max Minelli scene/check in! Let’s see how he gon appear on this shit! >>>

12:43: He looks real high, lol! Glad he showin’ luv ta this DVD!!

13:15: Ooh, a performance from him! It looked cool and tha club scenes were GR8!! I wonder how many more years ‘til I get ta finally go to tha club? I feel it’s a far distance away in my life right now so who knows… But gr8 lil’ part right there! I must say dat I luv tha transitions when each scene ends (when tha video and audio skip-edits for a few seconds)! My Rating: 4.1


06. “Ghost Town” (14:06 – 21:33)
I have a feelin’ I gon enjoy this “town,” ya dig! It sounds familiar so I have a feelin’ I may know some people in here; let’s see! >>>

14:14: WTH’s up wit tha gurlfight? I almost thought it was a guy puttin’ his head into tha gurl’s cooch, lol!

14:34: LOL at tha weird dancin’; tha saggin’ iz off tha chain here, lol!

14:40: Dat dude looks like Nu$$ie but doesn’t sound like him, lol. Ooh, there was sum jiggalatin’/pill sippin’ at 15:00! That’s prolly tha first time I’ve eva seen someone do dat (other than me legally takin’ pillz). I wonder if I’ll see more ta learn about it? What’s up wit tha scarf-thing around tha dude’s neck at 15:25? Glad y’all said, “buku,” at 15:58 ‘cause you KNOW you can’t have somethin’ Louisiana without its slang!

16:04: Wit tha dude layin’ down, what’s up wit his hair? It’s like three different dread twists? I like seein’ different hair like that; dat’s wild! I can’t agree wit tha “layin’ down” at 16:20 though. Once again, if that was me, I would get criticized easily. I don’t know how it’s “cool” ta lay wit anotha guy; someone tell me why? Anyway, I guess I found out tha “scarf” dude’s name iz Rambo (‘cause of his chain). At least I know someone’s name now, lol.

17:20: Talk about obsessions… Why tha gun tattoos?

17:43: Tha Nu$$ie lookin’ dude iz back, talkin’ about his “exclusive weed” or somethin’, lol. Now, they got more Gates music in tha background wit “Head To My Toes.” There’s even a white dude in tha video, lol. I’m surprised he gettin’ exposure ‘cause for some reason, I neva see two different races together? When I would be around black people, I feel dat I get ignored easily, or just asked a simple question, “Rap for me.” Nobody gets inta talkin’ ta me fa some reason? It’s all in my Autism and I wish black people would socialize wit me more in public… I guess I gotta just take a trip ta Baton Rouge ta maybe get more socialized and shit.

18:20: Back to tha lack of socializin’: I don’t know how a white person can just pat a black person’s stomach like dat. Rememba: Everything I write iz in my perspective of a lack of seein’ or receivin’ thingz. I would be prolly crushed if I patted someone’s stomach. I don’t know what ta say but I just feel like I need more face-ta-face recognition! I can tell they was listenin’ to tha Gates CD, All In, ‘cause a Malachi song came afta “Head To My Toes;” why not have it on shuffle? I always listen ta my CDs on shuffle!

19:15: I see tha “trapstar” (as he calls himself) again. LOL, he’s real proud of all tha weed he got “in one day;” how does dat work? I actually haven’t seen any weed in ova nine months… Y’all must get lucky fa yaselves at times!

19:24: Oh no, a (like) few feet gun! It’s all good at times, lol. What’s up at 19:58? I don’t know if dat was a dap but it looked like a kiss? I don’t know but I haven’t gotten a “hug” type of dap in prolly tha longest time… I wish I could experience more and more socializin’… Hope my time comes REAL soon!! Looks like a WHOLE lotta Rambo! He talkin’ a lotta shit, which iz good. How does it feel ta talk a whole lotta shit without gettin’ interrupted easily? Glad you liked (or should I quote, “luved”) Nu$$ie. Thanx ta my boy Jimmy The DJ, he gave me a shout out on his Gangsta Gumbo Vol. 2 mixtape so you KNOW I’m DEFINITELY real wit what I do, ya heard me!

21:17: How come people “blow smoke/weed in tha wind” fa people? This one needs an answer, lol! Anyway, this was a nice-ass long scene! My Rating: 4.0


07. “Belfair” (21:35 – 25:46)
Not sure of this town but I think I heard tha name somewhere… I do look forward ta anything new, ya heard me! >>>

21:52: Good intro music in tha background. I thought I recognized who dat was right here but tha face kinda threw me off fa a second (wit tha way he looks). It’s Big Scoob; let’s see what he gon say! Wit his “one hit wonder” phone call when we talked on tha phone back on August 3, 2009, he explained tha whole “I started tha whole ‘jigg’ thing” ta me; why’d he fade away from talkin’ on tha phone? And dat CD in his hands (Jiggalators CD), he talked about dat too; where’s my copies of all these CDs AND this DVD? It’s almost five months now… And iz it Jiggalators or Jiggalaters? “Jiggalaters” sounds like tha word “later” iz used ta incorrectly spell or somethin’ so I always went wit Jiggalators.” Back ta watchin’ tha clip, I see he brought someone along; props once again on tha “pop three, pop four” shit! I’m surprised/glad he’s talkin’ in anotha scene fa a non-social person!

24:20: I didn’t know dat was T-Lo… I thought his voice was deeper but it’s cool ta see him too! It’s jiggalateful right now, lol!

24:35: …And anotha check in! When I said tha whole “familiar” thing about guessin’ about Ghost Town, I was wrong ‘cause this iz tha more familiar clip ta me! It’s Sam I Am and I’m glad he checkin’ in! I neva got ta talk ta him or anybody affiliated wit him (except for Big Scoob who I talked to). And yea, he DEFINITELY “still jiggalatin’” just like tha song! I gave it a spin on my radio show September 26, 2009, ya dig! Tha dude at 25:07 next ta Sam looks like he’s got buggin’ out eyes, lol! But yea, lookin’ forward ta a Sam I Am comeback and err-thang! As far as money goes, I don’t even need any money when it comes ta releasin’ anything. I just need focus ‘cause I feel dat without focus, I won’t get motivated ta rap/produce.

25:27: A new scene and it’s anotha gun scene? Why?

25:40: OH FUCK NO!! BABY BOTTLES?!? Unless it’s cool ta “disguise” your drugs (e.g., tha phome cup) but still, baby bottles? What a way ta end tha scene!! My Rating: 4.2


08. “Easy Town” (25:50 – 31:55)
Heard of this one too… Then again, it’s anotha “town” so I don’t exactly know… But I will find out now! >>>

26:03: I hear Boosie music… Now that’s tha kinda car that should be shown vs. tha “whips” thing from earlier in tha DVD! Tha cars look cool here, ya dig. What’s up wit tha obsession of “tha money,” lol?

26:45: Tha background of err-body hangin’ out on tha block looks cool. Too bad they don’t have dat where I live. Based off of y’all in this scene, it sounds like y’all REALLY, REALLY praisin’ tha area, lol!! It must be tha best place in Baton Rouge, huh, lol?

27:32: LOL @ tha way this dude sounds; gotta luv ‘em! Why “10 grand on tha rims?” I’m still waitin’ fa tha day (hopefully within tha next month) ta get a car so I’ll see what it’s like. Still, “10 grand?” How ‘bout a 100th of dat? So much talkin’ and shit throughout tha whole next minute, lol! Where does err-body get tha socializin’ skillz from? Anotha gun at 29:12… Finally, it switched up a minute later! It got kinda hectic but it was cool though ta see tha hood!

30:10: LOL, what this dude gon do wit no shirt on, sittin’ by tha rim? Nothin’ really happened; he just got up.

30:22: Back to tha Got Pills 2 (Still Rollin’) blanket poster or whateva it iz; what will it lead into? It just lead inta a dude in tha car (not sure who he iz)…

30:53: This dude looks familiar… What’s wit tha thousands of dollaz? Not only dat, why tha horrible head shots? Either I keep seein’ shirts/pants or incorrect lookin’ shots and not a full shot? I mean, I can see a close up, but fa so long a shirt scene? “Hustlin’ since you was 16,” huh? How dat feel? I know my cousin used ta do dat shit befo’ he was 16 and right before he turned 16, it attacked him (thanx to a cunt dat snitched on him). I luv all tha “bruh,” “nigga,” “ya heard me,” “man,” etc. shit afta every sentence too; you KNOW I luv my Urban peeps!! Why don’t you like 50’s, lol? Tha “fake ass niggaz showin’ choppaz” part was good ta hear! Yea, why more choppa scenes vs. money scenes? Or betta yet, how ‘bout creative scenes like what I do? I really liked how you came through fa tha end of this scene ‘cause you sounded cool. My Rating: 3.7


09. “Dope Celebrity Records” (31:57 – 42:34)
Heard tha Savage tag in tha beginning (gonna assume it’s tha “They Hate My” beat). This should be 100% familiar ta me (prolly tha most familiar outta tha DVD) ‘cause I rolled wit DCF since May 2008! Here it goes!! >>>

32:04: Yup, I was right wit tha beat (of course) and Nu$$ie’s here! I usually neva see footage of him nor do I see pics at times; glad ta see this now! And Jimmy’s gettin’ ready ta release his Nu$$ie DVD REAL soon!! That should be a multiplier fa thingz and shit! All tha shit he’s sayin’ iz true, includin’ tha whole “We’ll be in New York on tha 7th” shit. I tried ta get him and A1 ta meet me but they got caught up wit tryna get signed. I coulda met both of them (‘cause I was on Long Island at tha time) but at least I got a shout out on Gangsta Gumbo Vol. 2! That’s still a lil’ somethin’ and Nu$$ie knew who I was, ESPECIALLY since he liked his two awards he won wit me from my 2008 Music Awards (for Louisiana Artist Of Tha Year and a *CERTIFIED CLASSIC* award fa “They Hate My” fa havin’ 100+ spins wit me)! Glad A1 gave him ‘em a week before he got killed ‘cause it’s luv bein’ shown and it’s WAY betta than nothin’!! LOL @ his laugh at 33:37! Interestin’ shit about “before tha record deal!” I didn’t know Big Markee was in jail at tha time. However, my boy S.O.S. told me dat once Markee got outta jail, that’s when he died, so he must’ve gotten out July 24ish since he died that day. Boy, dat was a long interview, regardless!

35:28: It’s Lil’ J! Iz dat Diablo that’s wit him? I neva saw Diablo but I can just tell by tha face fa some reason… Oh, and ANOTHA encounter at 35:36!! It’s A1, who prolly outta this whole DVD, I’m tha closest to, ya dig!

35:49: Now, back ta Nu$$ie! This wasn’t meant ta be long ‘cause he died, right? Rememba: Human dignity! Err-body’s treated equally!! I do like that I’m seein’ a whole lotta Nu$$ie though! He’s got like a classic face when I see him talk, lol.

37:41: Ooh, and there’s tha DCF buildin’!! I think they were in it right when this scene started anyway but now, I see tha outside! I found tha outside on Google a while back, lol! LOL @ tha “spotted dickrider” at 37:48! I have ta comment on (if it iz Diablo) Diablo’s gun in his pants. What if it went off? I don’t undastand that you would put tha gun in tha middle and not on tha side? That’s cool that you gave Troy tha props for “gettin’ tha footage.” You KNOW if I saw you, I would DEFINITELY get footage of you! Shid, if my Tha Louisiana Pit radio show existed a year ago, I would’ve gotten a drop from you, ya dig! At least I have your shout out in my theme song though; that’s a DEFINITE plus!! Ooh, there’s even a deck in tha DCF buildin’, lol! I pictured it as just an office but it looks hella cool!! I wish I could’ve visited it; what iz it now? He’s got a cool grill. I guess ‘cause I neva see pics of him, I noticed his grill finally. What iz tha mysterious Nu$$ie thing at 42:22? I assume it’s a gun? Gotta luv how he says, “I not even gon show you dat,” a few times! That’s PURE Nu$$ie wit his voice, style and err-thang! Well, it was ova 10 minutes of one scene, lol. GR8 footage and yea, DEFINITELY familiar thingz were shown!! My Rating: 4.8


10. “The Funeral” (42:36 – 45:49)
Even more, lol? You sure this ain’t dickridin’ ‘cause this iz like a compilation DVD of various thingz? I feel like this gon be anotha long set but I’ll enjoy it… kinda (since it’s a funeral scene). >>>

42:44: Why always “They Hate My” in tha background? It makes him look like a one-hit wonder or somethin’… Fa all dat footage, tha song should’ve at least switched a few times! Who’s in tha car wit tha “R.I.P. Nu$$ie” sprayed on it? Looks like they goin’ duffy but it’s a death…

43:03: I can tell this iz Jimi Jump wit his voice and how he looks; lol @ his skinny neck! And what Jimi’s sayin’ iz why I hate how people like playin’ wit gunz and shit. It’s like, what did Nu$$ie do bad? He was helpin’ people and shit; why fuck up 2009 all of a sudden?!?

43:32: Back ta Sam I Am here! Let’s see what he gotta say about Nu$$… I’m surprised err-body got different R.I.P. shirts within that short amount of time; how? I thought people take 2379234872942394239408739084238 months ta do thingz?!?

43:45: LOL, it’s Ya Boy Earl! Forgot ta tell him dat he gon get two awards wit my 2009 Awards fa havin’ his collaboration wit Lil’ Boxx & Down Bad “Can’t Stop Moving (Remix)” fa hittin’ 100+ plays wit me and fa bein’ on my playlist; he should luv dat! Let’s see what he gon say… Glad he was one of (was Jimmy The DJ tha first ta put him on tha radio?) tha first ta “put him on tha radio.” You KNOW now wit my Tha Louisiana Pit radio show, I puttin’ err-body on tha radio fa tha 1st time ‘cause I’m REALLY dedicated!!

44:03: I don’t know who this iz but he “was one of tha last ones wit B-Real ta be wit Nu$$ie;” that’s good ta know.

44:19: I don’t know tha white dude; he gave a shout out ta “Skull Duggery” too so you KNOW it’s DCF blood right here!

44:31: Now this white boy I know (T-Bo)! I wonder what it was really like at tha funeral that day; it was like tha Baton Rouge version of Michael Jackson’s death! And tha chick that came in fa a few seconds at 44:42 looked cool ta check in!

44:45: Looks like it’s you again, Troy, Millionaire Ent.!

45:25: Looks scary wit tha funeral cars! Like A1 says, “Since Nu$$ie died, who blowin’ up now?” Everybody’s just so fuckin’ lazy ta get me their music and err-thang!! I don’t get people!! They don’t wanna blow up or nothin’; get motivated like me!! Great footage though of tha funeral! Too bad there’s no inside footage of people inside… My Rating: 4.3


11. “Banks Town” (45:55 – 52:46)
What area could this be? I think we gon keep it gutta and street once again here!! >>>

46:02: When y’all highlight tha street/avenue/highway signs, why iz it a particular one and not any othaz? Do y’all live on huge-ass roads?

46:08: Back to tha duffy shit! Too bad it has ta start wit a gun and err-thang… I like tha green house; cool footage. Tha dude at 46:58 looked like B.G. when he came through, lol. Talk about luvin’ tha gun, lol! What about marryin’ it?

47:30: Ooh, anotha freestyle! More “obsessive gun” lyrics… It was quick but it seemed like it was far from my life. Tha socializin’ gets me jealous… Do y’all have huge hangouts like dis frequently? Oh, so tha main dude here iz Lil’ Head Da YG? Cool, I know who he iz. Glad he holdin’ this town down!

51:30: Here comes anotha freestyle from tha dude wit tha polo on! Yea, “polo down,” ya dig! It’s like dat fa me nearly err-day, ya dig!

52:28: What’s up wit tha car? What tha hell was dat? Tha footage fa this scene was kinda on tha repetitive side and tha gun shit kinda threw me off at times ‘cause it was in my face too much… My Rating: 3.4


½time: Ah, I’ll do a ½time now. I really like tha DVD ‘cause it’s Baton Rouge!! I get ta see a direct look at Baton Rouge and how people be livin’ in tha streetz. It seems like y’all have a lotta fun at times, which iz good. Hope all tha unknown people discover me and shit ‘cause I’m tha truth! I’m like tha Nu$$ie that’s not from Louisiana!! By calculatin’ tha scores, tha average DVD rating currently iz a 4.1; good shit!


12. “North Side: Networkin’ Records” (52:50 - 55:16)
What could this be? I gon look forward ta it ‘cause it’s different fa me!! >>>

52:55: Looks like I’ll like this; you KNOW I like when people be like, “Shiiiiiddd.” Tha dude wit tha durag sounds like he really luvs networkin’! He should fuck wit me ‘cause that’s what I luv too and have it in my vains 24/7, regardless if I’m sleepin’ or not!! Gotta feel him smokin’ and shit and it looks like he luvin’ tha money, lol. His boy luvin’ tha Gucci glasses, lol! Ooh, there’s a Mac computer too in tha house! Iz tha durag dude Charlie Mac? I’m not sure if I caught his name right ‘cause if it’s Charlie Mac, then I heard of him! Pretty good, short scene here. To add: Why tha lil’ gun scene towards tha end? My Rating: 3.9


13. “Millionaire Entertainment” (55:16 – 59:53)
More on dat boy Troy; let’s see what we got here (b-roll of this DVD?)! >>>

55:31: LOL, what’s up wit all tha jump cuts? Too many errors were made when tryin’ ta record it, lol?

55:45: Tha Carlos dude looks cool; he should fuck wit me on some shit, you know! And his boy chillin’ on tha couch gets a thumbs up too. Tha people look familiar from tha Rambo part back when tha Kevin Gates was playin’ through tha car. I like tha smokin’ weed scene!

56:24: Anotha freestyle!! And it’s you rappin’, Troy! You sound gr8 on this “Relax And Take Notes” beat! Looks like you got a lotta luv from people. REAL GLAD afta tha freestyle, you talkin’ ‘bout how you REALLY wanted ta put Baton Rouge “on tha muthafuckin’ map!” You KNOW I’m doin’ it in a REAL MAJOR way!! Tha BIGGEST way outside of Louisiana, ya heard me!! Glad you gave Big Scoob a shout out again as well as expressin’ tha Thuggin’ It & Lovin’ It title in a major way!

58:55: Yea, people need “loyalty” to tha fullest, ya dig! Who needs tha money? DEFINITELY need tha “loyalty,” ya dig! And you KNOW I have tha MOST “respect” outta ANYONE in tha world!! Glad I got ta see tha inside of your crib! My Rating: 4.3


14. “Park Town” (59:59 – 1:12:56)
I know of an artist named Parktown Bone or somethin’ like dat so I heard tha name of tha “town;” let’s see what this offers though! Oh and right before I get inta it, my boy DeTrane texted me just now. If he ain’t in this, y’all should put him in tha next one! >>>

1:00:09: What’s wit tha horrible head room? Tha dude talkin’ doesn’t have a head shown! And even down ta tha people above tha person in tha car; their headz are gone! Oh, here they are at 1:01:02, lol! Glad y’all gon “shoot a movie soon!” I like tha dappin’ at 1:01:59! Glad it’s a “livin’ legendary block!” So, this dude (wit tha durag) likes tha “reach out,” huh? Hope he finds me soon!! Gotta luv tha word “bruh” and that he says it a bunch of times! My new favorite word ta hear!! Glad he also anti-pistol’d ‘cause that shit gets gay when I see it too much! GR8 info about it too! His boy (John Slaughter?) talkin’ some more info so that’s watz good!

1:03:55: Ooh, tha durag’s boy iz spittin’ some shit now! Definitely on some hood shit here! It’s 100% hood shit right here!

1:05:24: Yea, tha “bruh” dude wit tha durag iz spittin’ some shit afta he talked a lil’ bit! Nice slow rappin’ here, deliverin’ some real shit! Glad y’all hood!

1:05:53: Y’all invited Johnny Boy, a homeboy of yours! Glad you still givin’ gr8 information, “bruh,” lol (referrin’ to tha “bruh” dude)!

1:07:59: Anotha dude comes through; good shit! …And anotha one came through, lol! Glad you still talkin’ ‘bout tha hood around you; luvin’ this shit!

1:09:11: Anotha dude iz here and it looks like he ‘bout ta smoke on some good? He rollin’ up and he DEFINITELY “luvs his people!” That’s good and I’m glad he “keepin’ it 100!” Or should I quote, “1,000,000!” There’s an album out wit C-Loc and “buku people” on it? Where’s my copy? DEFINITELY holla at me ASAP!!!!! I know about 38 $lim; thumbs up fa tha shout out. Interestin’ that you (tha “bruh” dude) “came from a dope fiend family;” that’s some rough shit. Tha “rollin’ up” dude says he “tha best rappa outta tha state;” lemme hear some music! And to tha “bruh” dude, glad you still keepin’ it street wit err-thang you sayin’!!

1:12:39: Who’s this dude wit tha yellow bandanna? Tha volume became blastin’ again and it’s hard ta hear him… Iz it you, Troy? It looked like your chain… Either way, this was my favorite behind tha DCF part!! Glad this was long too ta prevent tha dickridin’!! My Rating: 4.5


15. “South Side” (1:12:57 – 1:16:13)
Could just exactly imagine what this “South Side” gon be like, lol! Speakin’ of which, we gon see G-Lane soon? >>>

1:13:05: Interestin’ road scenes! Tha “outlaw” music playin’ again, lol!

1:13:35: Here comes a dude… I couldn’t catch his name but you KNOW he gotta have a gun on him, lol!

1:13:59: Who could this dude be? Sounds like a real thug here “thuggin’” to tha fullest! He looks typical wit a typical size/height etc.…

1:14:18: Ooh, he gon kick somethin’! Pretty good pace wit tha rhymes. You did ya thang; you KNOW I luv my peeps, rappers, etc.!!

1:15:09: And you have an encounter! And now, you mentioned “Bad Azz Ent.;” y’all related? LOL @ tha “got y’all playin’ BINGO” part, lol!

1:15:31: Switched up to a dude wit dreads and tha high volume again… He sounds REAL gutta, lol!! Shit! Tha REAL LOUD volume gives it a betta attribute of guttaness, lol!

1:15:59: More luvly scenes… Glad ta see Louisiana roads, stores and all dat shit! My Rating: 4.2


16. “3rd World” (1:16:21 – 1:23:07)
Looks familiar… Not sure but I’m lookin’ forward ta seein’ what we got here!! >>>

1:16:39: Y’all luv tha drinkin’ and on tha car, lol! Interestin’ scene of tha bridge and dome. What’s up wit tha obsession of “where tha hoes at,” lol?

1:17:35: And you brought along Coogi Mane? I think that’s his name; he seems cool. I really like tha whole bridge background once again! Oh no, Coogi’s good but he even “keepin’ dat tool” too…

1:19:25: What’s up wit tha papers Coogi Mane brought out dat has ta do wit “pussy right” shit? Odd combination… Lemme hear more… I still don’t get it but it looks like y’all didn’t have safe sex?

1:20:24: Oh no, here come tha glasses again, lol! It’s not “Gucci” though fa this “Coogi” dude, lol! Coogi luvs talkin’!! I wonder how people luv ta talk? It’s GR8!!

1:21:24: Now, tha Coogi dude looks like Big Markee wit tha wifebeata, lol. He got some big tattoos, lol! Oh no, here comes a HUGE-ASS gun… And even on tha phone too? Y’all invited someone and still showin’ off your tools. My Rating: 4.0


17. “Candy Cane The Porn Star” (1:23:08 – 1:24:16)
Y’all bringin’ in tha females now I assume… Let’s see how dis goes… >>>

1:23:19: She looks pretty good and sounds good too! Y’all switched it up ta “New Orleans?” I thought this was 225 to tha fullest? That was a short clip and okay check in. My Rating: 3.6


18. “Port Allen” (1:24:17 – 1:27:35)
Now THIS gon be my shit right chea, ya heard me!! I fuck wit people like Jay Regal, M.A., Kodak Banks and a bunch othaz outta Port Allen so you KNOW I gon know some of dis shit! >>>

1:24:27: Wow, DEFINITELY some gutta hood shit right chea wit tha bandannas ova tha faces and shit!! LOL, two of tha dude’s WHOLE faces are covered!! Tha gunz are scary but this iz definitely tha most gangsta scene in tha whole DVD! What’s wit tha blastin’/combination of people talkin’ all at once volume?? How did they get so sociable? That was DEFINITELY sum raw-ass gangsta shit right there! Too bad it was only one lil’ scene and nothin’ fa Jay Regal or any of them I knew… My Rating: 3.7


19. “Fairfield” (1:27:40 – 1:29:50)
What could this area be? I think it’s familiar again so lemme check it out! >>>

1:27:49: LOL @ Pacman; gulp, gulp, gulp, lol? Oh, he gon spit a freestyle! He gon eat pellets too, lol? This iz definitely a good freestyle; he DEFINITELY sounds like he doin’ tha damn thang! At 1:28:45, tha dude wit crazy-ass dreads rappin’ and flowin’ to tha beat, doin’ a pretty good job! Now, Pacman iz back 30 seconds later! He still comin’ through wit a gangsta attitude on this shit! So, it was just that lil’ freestyle? It was all good though ‘cause I got a brief look at tha hood in Fairfield! My Rating: 4.1


20. “C.C. Lockdown” (1:29:51 – 1:37:02)
What kinda “lockdown” area iz this? Lookin’ forward ta seein’ once again!! >>>

1:29:58: Ooh, a basketball field it looks like… These dudes look a lil’ familiar… Looks like y’all DEFINITELY luv goin’ retawded, lol!

1:31:01: Some gurlz checkin’ in! LOL, and then humpin’ came outta nowhere! That must feel good ta go on a gurl like dat, lol! LOL, this iz tha first time we see a kid in this DVD, lol. I thought err-body was obsessed wit havin’ kids or somethin’ at an early age for a clueless reason…

1:32:40: Looks like y’all all chillin’ on tha po’ch, lol. Why always tha money showin’? What iz it a contest or somethin’? Talk about obsessions… Although I’m not exactly sure what’s bein’ said throughout this, it looks like y’all luv each otha though. Kinda gettin’ long now… …Tha minutes feel like they’re multiplyin’!! I’m slowly losin’ interest ‘cause it’s barely changin’! LOL, just when I wrote that I was losin’ interest, it ended, lol! My Rating: 3.2


21. “Hotwyre Entertainment” (1:37:06 – 1:40:33)
I see you used a logo ta introduce this one vs. tha previous 20 scenes! This should be interestin’ and different then so I’m lookin’ forward ta seein’ it! >>>

1:37:17: They look familiar but I don’t know who they are. They still look cool though so I’m lookin’ forward ta hearin’ what they got! They talkin’ some interestin’ shit about they hood and all dat!

1:38:17: LOL, who this big dude comin’ outta nowhere? He a lil’ too gutta wit TWO choppaz!!

1:38:37: I wonder what’s in tha bag that tha big dude dropped off? I have a feelin’ it gon be clips; let’s see… Ewe, lol, it’s money!! And I see tha dude’s girbauds lookin’ hella tight!! So, y’all really “made all dat money yesterday?” If true, then y’all REALLY luv your cash, lol!! This was interestin’ ta see Hotwyre Entertainment and what they do! Come fuck wit me on sum real shit, ya dig! And there was even a check in from tha dude who was blastin’ tha gun (I believe) before tha 1st scene started. My Rating: 4.1


22. “The Lake” (1:40:34 – 1:42:22)
What could dis “lake” be about? Looks like it gon be interestin’, lol! >>>

1:40:47: They look familiar (like I’ve seen them in this DVD a while back) but this looks cool fa a start; more hood shit! Interestin’ shot of tha gangsta in tha yellow polo, ya dig! How come it’s called “The Lake;” where’s tha surroundin’ water, lol? But that was a pretty good check in fa somethin’ short, ya dig. My Rating: 3.8


23. “Jimbo” (1:42:23 – 1:43:16)
Like tha name ‘cause it rhymes wit “gumbo” and “jumbo!” I prolly gon enjoy this one too! >>>

1:42:31: Oh, so it’s not a place, it’s a person! He sounds cool fa who he iz… So, you comin’ wit an “album in April [2009]?” Did it come out officially yet? And you say you have “a mixtape in tha streetz out now” too; can I have it/’em? Oh shit, it ended… I figured it was gonna be short ‘cause tha Max Minelli one was short too. My Rating: 4.2


24. “Yes I Am Entertainment” (1:43:23 – 1:48:46)
OMG, YIA Ent.!!!!! If my boy Lil’ Issue iz on this bitch, this bitch gon DEFINITELY be official!! Fa’got when I was readin’ tha back cover ta this DVD dat Yes I Am Entertainment was on here (don’t they have an exclamation point after “Yes” in their name based off tha promo I got of theirs?)!! REALLY, REALLY lookin’ forward ta this one!!! This prolly tha most anticipated part outta this whole DVD fa me, ya heard me!!! >>>

1:43:34: I already hear tha crew of dudes talkin’ ‘bout Lil’ Issue’s song wit Bun B! At 1:43:41, I SEE LIL’ ISSUE TOWARDS THA BOTTOM!!! So, Lil’ Alex iz “only 16 years old?” Damn, I didn’t think he was dat young!! Then, how old iz Lil’ Issue? Am I older than him? LOL, watch tha answer be, “yes I am,” like Yes I Am Ent., lol!!

1:44:08: Ooh, a freestyle comin’ at me on this shit! ROFL @ “My dick stay hard” ta start tha freestyle off, lmao!!! This iz DEFINITELY an interestin’ freestyle right chea wit tha “befo’ shot/afta shot” shit! LMFAO @ tha tongue (his “secret weapon”)!! So, his name iz “Young Gummy,” lol? Cool shit…

1:45:48: So that’s Big Steve? Thumbs up fa tha check in! I’m STILL dyin’ fa Issue ta check in!! Glad Lil’ Kevin checks in 12 seconds later! And dat Gummy dude still actin’ his own way in tha clip, lol.

1:46:23: Now, there’s a dude wit a cool 225 hat here… Cool shit; iz this a different scene ‘cause I didn’t see a title slide? Glad he reppin’ fa himself and wantin’ Baton Rouge ta unite as one instead of goin’ against each otha! Glad he gave his cell numba out on this shit too! I wish tha othaz would’ve done that too! Since I got confused between this and tha Yes I Am Entertainment part, I’m gonna combine tha two and consider it one different scene. Either way, NO LIL’ ISSUE TALKIN’?!? My Rating: 3.7


25. “Dixie” (1:48:51 – 1:52:13)
This looks like an artist name rather than a place. Let’s see if I’m right about this one… >>>

1:49:03: Nope, it’s an area. This dude looks familiar (Coogi Mane dude?) from earlier in tha DVD… He expressin’ how people are pussy when they by themselves. That’s how it be and I’m glad you exposed it!

1:49:20: Who iz this dude wit tha odd glasses? Not sure but his boyz comin’ through, luvin’ Dixie all their life, lol. I hear tha last dude talkin’ ‘bout “Savage Life Ent.” so I’m assumin’ he represents fa them; cool.

1:50:10: What kinda game iz dat? Looks like a memory game or somethin’, lol. And now, he speakin’ some REAL-ASS shit wit “free all black people… who ain’t kill nobody or rape nobody;” TRUE SHIT!!! Nice check in from tha dude wit a lighter-yellow polo in a car at 1:51:59! I didn’t expect an outro ta be next so here goes my rating fa this scene! My Rating: 4.2


26. “Outro” (1:52:19 – 1:55:00)
Time ta end it? Really? Let’s see how we gon end it wit this outro! >>>

1:52:19: This dude looks cool; gotta luv tha “wahhh” intro! Glad y’all comin’ wit a Vol. 2 soon!! And a “double disc??” Shit yea!! I spent ova four hours reviewin’ this shit; it gon be like eight wit tha double disc, lmao!! And you DEFINITELY NAILED IT when you said, “Gardere Lane,” gon be on tha next one!! You KNOW that’s my place right there when it comes ta showin’ tha most luv!! You said “Vol. 2 gon be here September [2009];” it ain’t out yet? What’s tha hol’ up? I like how tha ending scene froze and then went ta credits; good shit! I even liked tha credits ‘cause I know a lot of tha “Special Thanks” people, ya dig! My Rating: 4.3


Overall: Four hours and 32 minutes later… I FINISHED FINALLY!!! This DVD broke tha record fa tha review dat took tha longest (of four hours, 32 minutes), which tha previous record was three hours, 36 minutes (Savage Life Ent.’s Supa Unit CD)!! Dat Savage Life Ent. CD’s review no less was 18 1/3 pages long; this DVD review gon break dat too when I get tha rankings done, ya heard me!! As far as tha DVD, as much as people criticized it, I thought it was a well put together DVD!! REAL GLAD I got an in-depth look at some of tha hoods and shit, ya heard me! REAL NICE footage and I enjoyed tha WHOLE DVD!!! REAL GLAD y’all put out somethin’ like this and fa tha typical white person dat hates, fuck ‘em!! We here doin’ it REAL BIG fa Baton Rouge and you KNOW I’m DEFINITELY A HUGE HELP fa y’all, ya heard me!! I gon DEFINITELY keep doin’ what I’m doin’ wit supportin’ Baton Rouge to tha fullest all day, every day; IN MY VAINS!!! IN MY BLOOD!!!

Review #294: Issue, Big Steve & Lil' Kevin "Entertainment I Am Vol. 1 (The Promo)"

Reviewed on 8.19.2009 (Review #294)


Good mornin' (lol). FrankieThaLuckyDog in tha buildin' as it's just about ta hit tha 11:00 AM hour. Tha review I got up next iz STILL wit Lil' Issue on it, but iz a combination mixtape between him, Big Steve & Lil' Kevin! I betcha tha Kevin dude iz that boy Kevin F that be BLAZIN' tha features when it comes to Lil' Issue's mixtapes! Although thanx to tha Camp Life representative for sendin' it to me in tha mail (just tha CD), this time, there's no tracklisting printed on tha CD (or online), so I gon have ta do a blind review. My bad for not knowin' who gon be on it as well as titles and shit. But, here goes my review for Issue, Big Steve & Lil' Kevin "Entertainment I Am Vol. 1 (The Promo)"! Nice title, and I like how I review a mixtape of just Lil' Issue, then before it, a mixtape wit him and Lil' Alex. Now, a mixtape of him and 2 folks; lol @ tha growth consistently! Either way, I don't know tha age difference between tha 3; they all 2009 though. Also, Lil' Issue's MySpace link iz incorrect on tha CD: It's really http://www.myspace.com/lilissue , but it says http://www.myspace.com/lilissuesge instead. Start Time: 11:09 AM End Time: 1:09 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 or have auto-tune in your vocals, I’m not buyin’ it!
 
 
© 2009 CD Review (Review #294) reviewed on 8.19.2009 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.


01. Intro
Although I don't have a tracklisting, I'm assumin' for 40 seconds that this iz an intro. If certain songs come up to where I've heard them, I'll fill in title/featured artists. For now, let's see how this mixtape does! >>> This "a promo?" Wit tha 20 songs on here, I wasn't thinkin' officially that. I was just 'bout ta ask dat before I started ('cause it says "The Promo - Mixtape Comin' Soon!" on tha CD). I'll put that in tha title of this CD then. This intro sounded nice (wit a nice beat), although there shouldn't have been a cold ending (for a mixtape); should just either cut off or end flat at :00 remainin'. My Rating: N/A


02.
Tha 1st song startin' thangz off... Just like tha previous Lil' Issue CDs, let's start tha 3rd one off wit a BANGA! 3x a charm here!! >>> Yea, Issue in tha beginning, and throwin' in that dumb shit for tha beginning! It's all about "Yes! I Am Entertainment" on this shit, so shout out ta you givin' yourself props here. Feelin' tha rhymes here; definitely a nice 1st verse wit that attitude, Issue! Tha 2nd verse here from dat boy Big Steve "showin' his ass off everytime;" nice job on tha 1st 1/4 of tha 2nd verse!! Wow, dat boy Lil' Kevin (yup, Kevin F) on tha 2nd 1/4, doin' a REAL, REAL nice job!!! Big Steve on tha 3rd 1/4, STILL doin' a nice job!!! Kevin got back on tha 4th 1/4, soundin' EVEN BETTA how he "so impolite how he SHIT ON THA MIC;" REAL TIGHT!!! Anotha banga ta start tha mixtape off; 3x a charm right here!!! My Rating: 4.5


03.
It has 5:12 on tha length... I have an idea of what it iz (if it iz what I think it iz); let's see... >>> Nope, it ain't X-Fyle on tha track/that song wit Bun B, so this could be a REAL nice plus!! Actually, sounds like a HUGE heart-grabber on tha hook here wit tha "I'm goin' polo, goin' polo" in tha beginning!!! YEA!! THA HOOK IZ STR8 POLO'D UP!!!!! "Rockin' polo like a big dawg;" that's watz good!! That 1st verse REAL NICE, doin' tha thang wit tha "polo & fulla drugs" part!!! LOL @ tha "horses everywhere;" I get dat line 'cause polos have tha horses on 'em! Glad he buyin' "for his dawgs" also; that's REALLY watz good!! Such a BIG anthem that should sound perfect if tha last 2 verses do tha DAMN thang!!! Yea, tha 2nd verse here, soundin' REAL, REAL nice wit tha "sag my pants" and tha "boxers polo" part too; nothin' COMES CLOSE here!!!!! Even "can hear his ears pop;" that's how EXTREME this song iz!!! REAL nice job on tha 2nd verse, still goin' for that perfect rating!! Yea, here's dat boy Issue on tha 3rd verse here, smokin' buku shit here wit tha polo ta match!! I swear, it's ALWAYS about dat boy Issue on tha final verse of each song 'cause it sounds REAL, REAL good!!! EXTREMELY swagged out here!!! Tha hook repeated an extra time luckily, and although I thought tha beat stopped at 5:00 flat, it continued!! Gotta have it 100 here!! This tha 1st perfect rated song I EVA rated WITHOUT knowin' title/featured artist(s)!!! My Rating: 5.0


04.
How can we follow up from that HUGE-ASS song?!? >>> Sounds like it back to that dumb shit like Song #2. Yea, this ANOTHA REAL NICE joint!!! Glad Issue "ackin' a asshole" on this shit!! WHAT A REAL NICE HOOK!!! Str8 Baton Rouge shit right here!!! Tha "ack a asshole" part repeated an extra time for tha hook, so you KNOW this iz official!! Tha 1st verse here from Issue, and it's CRAZY!!! REALLY "fulla dat shit" and "fulla dat green," so it's a DEFINITELY 225 anthem here!!!!! Even got sexual here for tha ladies wit tha "gimme head and lick all ova my balls" part; just STR8 perfection here from dat boy Issue!!! Tha 2nd verse here, and it's NICE and upbeat; GREAT-ASS flow!!!!! "Infactuated wit money, boy, I'm a moneyologist;" mega plus to you, boy! Wit "money out tha ass," y'all should EASILY be able ta buy a promotional commercial from me for either $50 or $75 ($75 recommended 'cause it a minute long)! I believe Issue again here on tha 3rd verse, doin' nothin' but that GREAT SHIT here!!! Nice job right there, and it's a 1/2 verse 'cause tha 2nd 1/2 of tha 3rd verse was takin' ova from one of your team members; REAL GREAT attitude on this shit!!! I believe this anotha perfect song; 2 in a row!!! My Rating: 5.0


05.
Still comin' through REAL, REAL STRONG!!!!! Up next iz... >>> A lil' slower than tha last song, but still comin' through NICE! Tha hook iz DEFINITELY on that hood shit, and tha 1st verse here from a female, doin' a NICE job here!! That hook just FULLA money as Issue "throws it to tha sky;" GREAT shit again!!! Sounds like Issue gon be on tha 2nd verse... YES, HE IZ!! "Stack doe, sorta like dem legos," so that's a plus! Definitely feelin' ya verse right there; keep this shit comin'!! I really liked how tha dude on tha 3rd verse said "looook" at 2:50, seconds away from tha verse; I fuckin' luv black people to tha fullest, ya dig!! Real nice soundin' here wit tha attitude & flowin' of tha rhymes!! I also like tha ending, as tha beat ended on tha last second wit "we one step from famous, ha!" My Rating: 4.6


06. "Catch Me (Remix)"
Next up, I wonder how good we got it this time? >>> Might be familiar, but if it ain't, this a REAL GREAT start!!! Yup, this a familiar start from tha "We Got Issues!" CD (that best song on there), so this a MAJOR plus for consistency!! For those that missed what it was like: Sounds like anotha great beat intro; you got REAL nice production behind you!! Yea, what a REAL NICE hook here!! "You can catch me on Friday, smokin' on tha highwayyyy!!!" Talk about a REAL nice hook!! Tha 1st verse startin' off NICE wit tha smokin' shit! You doin' ya thang wit this shit right here to tha fullest!! It felt like it took awhile, but tha 2nd verse iz here, and it still soundin' pretty good; you're nice & wasted! I like tha "rollin' up sum tropical" also; great smokin' shit that neva ends!! Yea, fuck tha sirens!! As long as you "gettin' loaded on tha highway," you got nothin' ta worry about. AS LONG AS YOU STAY ALERT 'cause most people that go to jail aren't 100% alert! To Add: I believe there's added shit on tha 1st 1/2 of tha 2nd verse here, so that's a plus!! Dude sounds NICE on this shit, so I'm glad for tha addition! Tha 2nd 1/2 of tha 2nd verse iz REAL NICE wit tha "mixin' adjectives wit verbs," as well as tha endin'; such a NICE song right here! Due to tha additional shit, I'll boost tha rating up, and I'll also put "(Remix)" in tha ID 'til I officially know what's what. My Current Rating: 4.7


07.
Tha lengths are always these nice 3:00 - 3:59 type lengths, so I'm sure tha same kinda formula gon come outta 'em!! >>> Sounds like an OFFICIAL Baton Rouge beat intro! Actually, it said "Q-Red on tha track," so you KNOW it's DEFINITELY official here!! A WHOLE LOTTA "lane switchin'" in tha hook, so this a DEFINITE PLUS TO THA MAX!! Yea, tha hook was 3x instead of tha typical 2x!! I like tha "get ran tha fuck ova" part! Here's tha 1st verse from Issue (as well as doin' tha hook too), doin' a REAL NICE job here!! Really feelin' tha loaded lyrics here, as well as tha attitude of bein' loaded & feelin' good! Tha 2nd hook was only tha typical 2x, but it's all good 'cause tha 2nd verse iz DEFINITELY on that HOT-ASS shit wit tha "lemme roll my bleezy;" this REAL, REAL nice!!! You DEFINITELY did ya thang on tha 2nd verse, Issue. A song only wit Issue, so you KNOW this got a nice favorable feelin' from me, ya dig!! Oh wait, it ain't ova yet: Wit only 21 seconds left, tha 3rd verse here, and I'm glad you gave a shout out ta Lil' "Alex" on tha 3rd verse, as well as rappin' when tha beat got quieter towards tha end. I don't like how it said "lane switchin'" only 3x at tha end instead of in a multiple of 2. My Rating: 4.9


08.
Tha length jumped up a WHOPPIN' 59 seconds to 4:48!! REALLY lookin' forward ta this one too!!! >>> Couldn't hear who iz on tha track ('cause it was a lil' kid), but tha female that startin' off this joint DEFINITELY soundin' nice!!! There's just UNSTOPPABLE consistency here!!! REAL GREAT beat, and I like her "you trippin'" shit in tha hook! She on tha 1st verse here, doin' a REAL nice job!! Great job on that 1st verse, and tha 2nd verse here... NEVA CALM ON THIS MIXTAPE!!! "So slip-resistant," so this DEFINITELY some shit that DON'T FAIL!!! REAL GREAT voice/flow/rhymes, and all tha shit here; it FIYA!!!!! Tha 3rd verse here, and it still soundin' NICE! "Even check a nigga out like a bag a' groceries;" TIGHT line!! Also like tha endin' wit "I gotta be in wata, bitch, you neva see me slippin'!" That beat outro (tha last unda 20 seconds) was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tell that producer ta holla at me so I can keep showin' him BUKU luv, ya dig!! One of tha BEST beat outros I heard eva!!!!!!!!!!!!! My Rating: 4.7

Still not even up to tha half point, and thingz are just REAL, REAL GOOD!!!!! This next song should keep up that consistency!!!!! >>> I think I might know this song... Actually, because it has a Young Jeezy "Over Here" sample wit tha "money", it confused me 'cause y'all got a lotta "money" songs. Either way, nice hook, but it all about dat 1st verse!!! Tha attitude and strength of it sounds REAL, REAL NICE!!! "All about ya money like it a part of your religion," so you KNOW that's REALLY watz good!! That's Lil' Kevin right there on tha 1st verse spittin' that STREET SHIT tha HOOD WAY, ya dig!!! Tha 2nd verse here, and it Big Steve, still keepin' this shit runnin' like a runny nose, lol! Tha flow iz just REAL, REAL GOOD!!! Great rhymes on tha 1st 1/2 of tha 2nd verse, and tha 2nd 1/2 iz my dawg Issue, doin' a REAL GOOD job also!! Fuckin' luv his voice, and he "smokin' a lotta purple," so this DEFINITELY tha shit right here, ya dig!! Tha fade-out on tha outro on this song anticipates me for tha next song! LOL, I feel like I have a GREAT feelin' for this like an English teacher who luvs their stories, ya dig! My Rating: 4.6

Tha consistent length times = tha consistency of tha songs!!! >>> I'm ALWAYS correct on tha consistentness 'cause this a Q-Red production here; SO GLAD nearly every song iz a new one for me on this CD!!! Hope tha ACTUAL mixtapes that comes out ('cause this tha promo) has all this consistency on it!!! Real great beginning to tha intro & hook, but tha "whop, whop, whop, whop, whop, whop, WHOP!" shit in tha hook iz REAL, REAL, REAL catchy!!!!! Tha beat iz DEFINITELY on its shit here, so this a MEGA plus!!! I believe my boy Issue here on tha 1st verse, just REALLY in luv wit this shit, as well as "dat ass shake;" GREAT anthem right here! I like tha clappin' in tha beat at 1:21; reminds me of Yung Yola's "Keep Chewin'", which that clap pattern in tha beat I FUCKIN' LUV, so you KNOW this iz DEFINITELY watz good!!! Sounds like Q-Red iz rappin' on tha 2nd verse (although there was no "whop, whop..." shit in tha 2nd hook). This iz tha 2nd time I heard Q-Red rappin' (tha 1st was K.O. Feat. Beezy Bird & Q-Red "I Want That (Let Me Get It)" from Yung Yola & D.$.G.'s "99 Wayz 2 Grind" CD). He did his thang, keepin' this consistent, although Issue was betta on this! Yea, tha endin' had NOTHIN' but tha "whop, whop..." shit; REAL TIGHT!!!!! My Rating: 4.9


½time: Well, for no tracklisting, it's off to one of tha BEST STARTS EVA!!!!!!!!!! I wish I knew tha infos to tha tracks, but HOPEFULLY, someone will hook me up wit it! Issue, if you readin' this/luvin' this, you KNOW you have ta hook ya boy up wit a tracklisting 'cause it'll look betta when I have it online, ya heard me! Tha lowest rated song iz only a WHOPPIN' 4.5 (which was actually a good 4.5), and there's 2 perfect rated songs wit 2 4.9's, so this iz DEFINITELY watz good!! DYIN' ta see what tha average CD rating iz... *calculates* I believe we just set a record for tha ½time!!! Young Ready's "That's How I'm Coming" was originally a 4.8 on tha ½time, which y'alls iz too. However, wit deeper statistics, his was (without bein' rounded) 4.7625. Y'alls iz 4.7666... Y'ALL SET IT BY ONLY 0.1 OF A RATING!!!!! I figured that out 'cause if your current ratings total was to be subtracted by 0.1, tha average would be 4.75. THAT'S REALLY WATZ GOOD!!! Average CD rating: 4.8!!!!!!!!!!


11.
What should I say...? >>> Sounds like a messed up "Laffy Taffy" beat in tha beginning? Thought it was familiar, but it can't be 'cause this intro iz REAL catchy!! Issue, you doin' ya thang on tha intro and hook here; this must be called "Pimp Shit". This iz DEFINITELY catchy here, and tha 1st verse here... Great job on that 1st verse, bein' nuttin' but in luv durin' high school, so that's watz good, although I don't undastand payin' for sex ($30?). Issue, you're on tha 2nd verse here, doin' a GREAT job wit your attitude! Great job from tha 2nd verse; you ALWAYS do ya thang, Issue! GREAT ending too as tha otha dude on this went "I don't luv dem bitches" (when tha beat ended)! My Rating: 4.5


12.
A much longer length this time (5:01). Let's see what we got for 12 songs deep!! >>> A slower beat intro, but it has a NICE catchiness in it! Anotha song on tha sex level, but this sounds nice! Really feelin' tha slowness in tha hook, and now, tha 1st verse iz here! Continuous sexual lyrics here, and it nice and sexual! Great job on that 1st verse, and now, tha 2nd verse here... It ain't stoppin'!! Definitely into tha sexual content here! Nice job right there; hope tha 3rd verse just as good! SMH @ tha adlib in tha 3rd verse: "Scott Storch;" lol? Still keepin' it G wit tha sexualness on this verse here. DEFINITELY a real nice sex song!! Anotha REAL NICE endin' too wit tha "bangin', just bangin'" part! My Rating: 4.4


13.
Shorter song this time (2:50); let's see what we got... >>> Sounded pretty anticipatin' wit tha first few seconds wit tha beat. Catchy hook here wit that voice! Ya "betta get ya change up" ya sayin', and now, it Issue on tha 1st verse. This iz good for you 'cause this your "theme music." Great job on that verse, Issue; you ALWAYS doin' ya thang!! Tha 2nd verse here, and it still from you, Issue. Nice job keepin' yourself satistfied. LOL @ tha "purple like Monopoly" line. Tha beat almost has an older feel to it; thumbs up on this shit! My Rating: 4.3


14.
And back to tha longer songs, lol. Tha length iz now 4:54; let's see what y'all got now! >>> Anotha REAL anticipatin' intro again (just like tha last song). Howeva, this one sounds betta! Glad it longer too so I can decide. LOL, tha hook came 4 seconds early at :20? Sounded like I was payin' attention to tha beat, and then, tha hook just came in! I really liked tha "prolly fulla pills" part too! I think this tha hook in tha beginning; it sounds REAL nice! Yea, here's tha 1st verse (right before 1:00)! "Watch me explode like a grenade when I release tha pen;" EXPLODIN' shit here!!! Really feelin' tha voice/flow here on tha 1st verse, doin' tha damn thang to tha fullest! Issue such a BEAST on dat hook how he expresses it in tha 1st 1/2 of it!! Tha 2nd verse here, and it's soundin' GREAT wit tha flow (as always)! Great "my niggaz, they spark a lot; they 'bout sprayin' somethin'" part! This shit iz DEFINITELY for tha undaground heads here!! Yea, tha 3rd verse COULDN'T HAVE BEEN ANYBODY ELSE BUT... Issue, lol!! "Actin' a donkey" on this shit, doin' tha damn thang!! GREAT job on tha 3rd verse; instant classic PROMO CD here!!! My Rating: 4.6


15.
LOL, it a roller coaster wit these lengths 'cause now, it all tha way down ta 2:43. You got only 163 seconds here, so do tha damn thang!!! >>> A jacked beat this time? How come tha "Start From Scratch" beat? Looks like tha 1st downfall on this mixtape (beat wise). Pretty good rappin' on tha 1st verse, but please, both those otha CDs were fulla original tracks; why a jacked beat now? Pretty good rappin' on tha 2nd verse also. Still, no 4.0 rating this time. Glad it was short, and there wasn't even any Issue on it either. My Rating: 3.7


16. "Money"
No more abnormal shit, please! >>> Whether this beat iz original or not, pretty good start. This I've heard before wit tha "run it like an athlete" part. But yea, you picked a GREAT song, ESPECIALLY for tha #16 slot on this CD! Early in tha CD, where I was sayin' there was a lotta songs about money, this iz tha main anthem. Kevin says "I'm 'bout my money, dawg" in tha hook. When I hear rappers say "dawg," you KNOW I luv it; TIGHT hook! He even on tha 1st verse here, deliverin' that street shit! I like how he said "dawg" at 1:25 also! "Str8 out tha projects," so you KNOW he on his shit! DEFINITELY a nice 1st verse!! Feelin' tha 2nd verse from Issue a WHOLE lot; "on your job all tha time servin' fiends & dummies!" You KNOW I feel you when you loaded on that good shit! Only 2 verses? I kinda am a lil' hungry for more... My Current Rating: 4.6


17.
3:01 on tha length this time. Based off that length, it could be familiar... Let's see what this song brings... >>> ??? BAD START??? WTF wit tha gay female vocal sample/boring beat/song vibe/fade-in intro? Nice job on tha rappin' in tha 1st verse though; great rhymes. Aight 2nd verse here, although I feel tha "choose right" part when it comes to tha friends. You KNOW I had problems wit that my whole life 'til Louisiana saved my life Late 2007! Even Issue on this, wit only 34 seconds left? Let's see what he got... WTF @ tha hospital sound effect at 2:45? Too short of a verse... My Rating: 3.3


18.
*Sigh* I thought this was gon EASILY be a 5* automatic rated CD (when all tha songs are 4.0 or higher rated songs). Too bad for tha 2 fuck ups, but at least I got a WHOLE LOTTA EXCITEMENT outta most of this CD!!! >>> Even y'all sighin' in tha beginning, huh? Anotha beat not really for me, although at least this song sounds betta wit tha smokin' in tha beginning. Glad y'all "fulla dat shit," so that's a plus. Good job on tha 1st verse. Tha hook from Issue iz DEFINITELY nice, and I'm glad that female iz back again! This time, she on tha 2nd verse, doin' a nice job too! Glad she wants y'all ta "roll up tha swisha." Issue ALWAYS keeps this shit hood, ESPECIALLY how he delivers tha hook! Even on tha 3rd verse this time, so that's DEFINITELY watz good!! Keepin' this shit hot at all times; thumbs up! My Rating: 4.2


19.
Only 2 songs left of this CD... >>> LOL @ tha intro!! It just went nuts!! Issue's "out his body" on this shit, doin' tha damn thang on that hook!!! He on tha 1st verse here, doin' tha damn thang at ALL TIMES! Gotta luv how he said "shiiid" at :55; doin' tha damn thang here! Yea, tha 2nd verse soundin' REAL NICE here!!! Just gotta luv these attitudes and flows!!! That "bitch, I been thuggin'" part at 1:48 was REAL, REAL nice!!! LOL @ tha "hit you wit that heat like wet laundry" part; great shit! Tha 3rd verse here soundin' REAL NICE too!! Really luvin' all these voices & attitudes wit tha way these tracks flow!! REAL nice song right here, doin' tha damn thang!! My Rating: 4.6


20. Outro
Ewe... Only endin' wit 1:07 on tha length? Must be an outro... I BETTA hear y'all talk! >>> Yup, an outro. Tha dude on tha outro soundin' NICE! Glad you "got X-Fyle & Q-Red on tha tracks" (and it's not "X-Fyles"). Why he have ta say "got Rick Ross, Pleasure P, Bun B," on tha feature part? I rated those songs quite low. Plus, they NOT LOUISIANA, so I wouldn't give a fuck anyway. But, based off of that, I guess this came out before "We Got Issues!" I didn't know tha dates, so that's why I didn't know what order ta review 'em in. Either way, keep up tha great work, LOUISIANA style!! My Rating: N/A


Overall: It became 2 hours flat on tha review... Nice job wit most of tha songs on here. I felt REAL, REAL good about 'em!! Keep up this GR8 work 'cause I LUV my undaground Louisiana shit from tha 225 ALL DAY!!!
