Gonna
attempt to get back into doin’ these reviewz, even though I’m still outside of
my life, right now. Two weeks ago, I lost my handycam video camera (silver,
that I record most of my radio shows and journal things with), two black video
camera cases, two mini DV tapes, and my 8GB jumpdrive, which has my radio
show’s radio edits and things on there. :( But, here’s my 1st review
for today: Big Blaze 1st Shot (Promo Disc). Start Time: 10:26 AM | End Time: 11:13 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 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!

DJ Rob (1st Shot Intro)
>>>
Good intro, includin’ how it sounds. However, I heard a name that I don’t wanna
hear; ugh, don’t make me become more lazy than what I am! My Rating: N/A
02.
“2 Da Head” Feat. Money Mike
Grind
Tyme Entertainment in tha buildin’?! >>> Oh, this sounds pretty hot fa
a start, although it sounds like it could be somethin’ from tha mid-2000s?
Really hot production, here; hot anthem fa err-body in dat 225!! Gotta luv tha
1st verse goin’ on; must be Money Mike, I assume? Hope I get to
connect wit him soon!! Now, it sounds more like you on tha 2nd
verse… or does it? Either way, pretty consistent, to tha fullest!!! Nice 3rd
verse, too; really fa tha jiggalaterz, but always for tha smokerz, too! My Rating: 4.7
03.
“Feelin’ Ready” Feat. DJ B-Real
Looks
like a good collab… >>> Nice blend between songs, it seems like; they
go together real great!! Great party
music fa tha 1st verse, soundin’ like some mid-2000s music, once
again!! Likin’ tha gangsta shit in tha 2nd verse, too; “that’s how
it go in dat BRC!” :tu Tha 3rd verse’s pretty hot, too; lots of things
you got! Seems like you’ve already achieved your goals ‘cause livin’ this life
doesn’t seem any better, doesn’t it? My
Rating: 4.5
04.
“Like Dolphins” Feat. Da Hustlaz
You
know this looks like an interestin’ title; I think I know what ta expect wit
dis one!! >>> Lol, “jumpin’” goin’ on, here; thought it was gonna be
pill-related wit tha title… then again, I think it iz, lol. Rhymes aren’t that
bad, so far; let’s see how this gon continue… A lil’ bit of a Rudye-soundin’
dude on tha 2nd verse, comin’ through wit that quieter, hyped-up
voice, but still sounds real nice on this beat. Dog & Tech “Jumbo” shit
goin’ on, here, wit tha 3rd verse; sounds like a great verse,
overall, since you really know what you’re doin’, Blaze! My Rating: 4.3
05.
“Stuntin’ Ass (Remix)” Feat. Level, Ville Boyz, Head Da YG & Lil’ Feet
Big
collab, here! >>> Level said it was “tha remix”? Guess I’ll put that
in tha ID? I should… Really likin’ tha hook, even though this sounds like tha
non-sellout Level, soundin’ like he 19 or somethin’? Really luvin’ tha hook;
reminds me of tha YoungBloodZ Drankin’
Patnaz CD I luved in ’03, how he sounds like Sean P!! Also, tha 1st
verse he spittin’; nothin’ but luv ‘round this way!!! Ooh, nice 2nd
½ of tha 1st verse, too; mega collab, here!!! Really luvin’ tha 1st
½ of tha 2nd verse, too; dat “stuntin’ ass” strictly goin’ nuts,
here, includin’ in tha streetz! Tha 2nd ½ of tha 2nd
verse sounds like Lil’ Head; good job! Gotta luv how err-body be holdin’ it
down at all times!!! Endin’ it wit a
female; keep forgettin’ about who Lil’ Feet iz… Ehh, not really for this song;
prolly could’ve been on a different song, but oh well… Tha 2nd ½ of
tha 3rd verse sounds like a younger dude, but there’s a lil’ bit of
street shit goin’ on here. I believe dat was Mike of da Ville Boyz? Either way,
gotta luv this!!! My Rating: 4.8
06.
“Super Throwed” Feat. Cash Flow
>>>
Got Young Hustla on tha beat tag, here; ehh @ beat tags, but lemme just hear
this song… Really hot production goin’ on!! “Super Throwed” at its finest!! Tha
hook sounds pretty nice… Ooh, likin’ tha 1st verse, on a
strictly-225 tip!!! I really luv how most of these songs have that Lil’ Handy
vibe in ‘em; a legacy that was meant
to continue!! I really hope I find my jumpdrive ASAP ‘cause I radio-edited tha
whole Lil’ Handy Rap Hustlin’ CD, and
I don’t wanna redo it… :( Nice job wit tha 2nd verse, too; what else
can I say? Nice job on tha 3rd verse, even though throughout most of
this CD—I guess it’s ‘cause these songs must be years old—I can’t tell who’s
who… My Rating: 4.4
07.
“Get U One” Feat. Young Trayne & Dat Boy Kenny
I
know this iz a familiar song…? >>> Yea, sounds familiar, but I have no
idea where I checked it out… Either way, anotha catchy-soundin’ 225 joint! My Current Rating: 4.4
08.
“Beat Down” Feat. Big B Da Hoodboy, Head Da YG & Lil’ Rocket
New
feature on tha ID! >>> No comment on tha production until pending
thing(s) are cleared up, even though I consider myself tha one who lost, now.
Nice job wit tha hook, reppin’ hard at all
times!! Tha 1st verse’s pretty gutta, too; gotta feel it!! More
reppin’ in tha 2nd verse, too; nice… Keepin’ tha reppin’ goin’ wit
tha 3rd verse, too; lots of hoods and guttaness!! Was dat Big B on
tha 3rd verse? I thought I heard his name…; either way, if it iz,
what a future dude ta fuck wit, on some real shit! Hope a connection happens
soon, ya feel me? Sounds like a crazy 4th verse?
Thumbs-tha-fuck-up!!! My Rating: 4.7
09.
“Anybody Can Get It”
>>>
Good lyrics ova a Southern beat, tha only way Big Blaze can deliver it! I
believe this one sounds familiar too? I had cleaned up my iTunes library,
recently, so I don’t remember what’s what… My
Current Rating: 4.3
½time: This iz pretty hot,
overall; can’t deny any of this shit,
right chea!!! A 4.5-rated
CD, currently; it’s all about dat heavy reppin’ fa tha 225!!!!!
10.
“Boss Status” Feat. Da Hustlaz
>>>
Sounds like anotha hot collaboration; feelin’ tha “status” y’all claim ‘cause
it seems like dat when I hear this kinda music! Thumbs up ta dat 1st
verse; they ain’t playin’ no games, here! Reppin’ fa err-body when they say,
“Suck all our dick,” lol; lol @ everyone’s…
Tha 2nd verse sounds pretty nice, too; all about survival in these Louisiana streetz! Keepin’ this shit goin’
wit tha 3rd verse, too; nothin’ ta complain about, here!! My Rating: 4.4
11.
“Let ‘Em Know” Feat. Level, Lil’ Cherokee, Ben Frank, T-Dub, Lil’ Show & DJ
B-Real
Lol
@ all tha people squeezed in, in less than 4:30!!! >>> Oh, “‘06”
style, here; sounds like a good intro, but a betta hook!! Level doin’ an okay
job on tha 1st ½ of tha 1st verse; not bad… T-Dub’s on
tha 2nd ½, comin’ through wit some gangsta shit on her side; why iz
everyone all ova tha place in tha ID? Iz dat Ben Frank on tha 1st ½
of tha 2nd verse? Thought I heard him say that name, but it’s good
reppin’, either way… A female on tha 2nd ½? Not exactly sure who it
iz, but good, Southern shit, at its finest!! Ooh, got a 3rd part of
tha 2nd verse; sounds good from this dude… A 4th part on
tha 2nd verse, too; good female (I believe Lil’ Show), fa only “18!”
Tha 5th part in tha 2nd verse’s you? Sounds like it, wit
a Savage twist; thumbs up! Lol, DJ B-Real on tha 6th part! Wow,
really young, here; younger than my current age, at tha time!! Feelin’ how he
comin’ through wit that gutta shit; he always
be reppin’ hard!!! My Rating: 4.5
12.
“I Want That” Feat. Young Crucial
Looks
really anticipatin’…!!! >>> Really hot
start wit tha description of tha drugs!! Almost a familiar beginning wit tha
lyrics, but I don’t think I eva heard this before. Either way, I think tha 1st
verse’s pretty tight! Also, tha hook’s hot; tha 225 music I luv!!! Tha 2nd
verse sounds like tha both of y’all, and it’s real nice!!! Tha 2nd ½ iz what sounds real tight, wit tha “quarters” and shit
like dat! :tu Of course, can’t deny tha 3rd verse, too! This verse’s
more on tha gangsta side; gotta luv it!! My
Rating: 4.6
13.
“Dumb Shit (Remix)” Feat. Teflon Pit, Young Ready, B.T., Young Crucial &
Zoe
Looks
real tight on tha ID!!! >>> Okay, I know this one, as tha “Pyrex Radio”
tag reminded me! Of course, I feel much
betta about it than back in tha day!!! My
Current Rating: 4.7
14.
“Name Rangin’” Feat. Big Ram
Likin’
this ID! Lol, it almost looks like “range” on tha title, but I know what’s up!
>>> Hot hook; “dumb shit” at its finest!! You’re on tha 1st
verse, and I’m really feelin’ how you sound on this shit, right now; blazin’ up tha tracks!! I’m likin’ tha 2nd
verse, strictly “in tha fast lane!” Tha rest of this shit sounds pretty tight,
too, includin’ how tha music fades out, toward tha end, but tha hot rhymes keep
goin’!! “I was born in tha 80s;” you know what it iz, right here!! My Rating: 4.6
15.
“One Slug” Feat. DJ B-Real & Pitre
>>>
Whoa!! Heard this before I could even write a preview, and this sounds like
some hot-ass ‘90s-type shit!!! Even though I believe most of these jointz are
from 2006, it has a real great
vibe!!! You sound pretty tight on tha 1st verse; gotta luv tha
rhymes, in a non-stop fashion!! Tha 2nd verse sounds like some mo
tight shit from you, too; keep this shit goin’!! Nice shit on tha 3rd
verse, too; “think about what chu doin’!” My
Rating: 4.6
16.
“My Section” Feat. Yung Sicka & Young Ready
I
know this a song I heard before…
*Checks iTunes* Of course, I kept this in my iTunes ‘cause I got it before 2008
ended! You know that was my defining
year!!! Originally featured on Young Ready’s Junkie Medicine (Cocaine Edition), and this iz produced by DJ
B-Real!! Of course, I prolly like this much betta than back when I reviewed it
in ’08, so you know what it iz!! Yung Sicka soundin’ tight wit how he
consistently brings shit to tha table, here!! Tight when I first heard it, but
even betta now!!! My Current Rating: 4.7
17.
“‘80s Baby” Feat. Young Ready & Teflon Pit
Anotha
familiar title? Yup, that same CD, but this was produced by Sims! Gotta give
props to Young Ready when he wrote me from jail, givin’ me tha tracklisting and
listin’ tha producers of tha songs!! Too bad that and answering Savage’s phone
on tha AM hours of November 7, 2008 are tha only things he did for me. :(
Thought our connection would go pretty far, but it seems like nothing has
started… :confused My Current Rating: 4.7
18.
“Hot Spit (Freestyle)” Feat. Beast Boy a.k.a. Benjamin Racks
Interestin’
endin’ wit tha feature!! >>> Hearin’ tha beat intro and I can tell
this ain’t tha ’06 dayz… Nice, regular-paced shit from Racks on tha 1st
verse; gotta feel it!! I like his character when he comes through on tha mic!
You’re on tha 2nd verse, and it’s ehh…, aight. I mean, I know most
music today sounds like everyone wants to be at tha top or somethin’… But,
either way, good shit, overall. My
Rating: 4.1
Overall: A lot better than I
expected; sounds like a compilation of older tracks that’s great for others to
have!
