Lil Eddie - Emotional album review
Lil Eddie gets emotional on his own Emotional album. Lil Eddie gets deep into his emotional side with his feelings on the Emotional album as Lil Eddie displays and showcases such raw emotion in his lyrics and in his singing. Many of the Lil Eddie songs on this album are filled with raw emotion and high energy in terms of singing. Lil Eddie gets in touch with emotional health in terms of health from an education aspect. To sum it all up in other words… Lil Eddie gets emotional on this album.
Lil Eddie has been making big moves with this album in terms of songwriting. Each song of his on this album keeps getting better and better as he improves his craft of songwriting. With each album of his, the songs keeps getting better and better. His vocals just keep on getting better. His vocal range has clearly improved since his last album called Already Yours. Lil Eddie is a vocal force to be reckoned with. His vocal range is very sultry throughout the song.
[Edwin Serrano has been practicing using his voice as he is a vocal coach for the TV show The X Factor US currently while being part of a songwriter deal with EMI Publishing as he is a songwriter. To sum it all up… He is a vocal coach and a songwriter.]
[The Lil Eddie - Emotional album charted at #6 on the iTunes Charts in Japan in 2013 and in 2014. Emotional was released by Manhattan Recordings and EMI in Japan as a digital download first and then later on CD eventually.]
Eddie gets Loved Up on this song called Loved Up. Loved Up is obviously a love song filled with such raw emotion. He gets loved up enough by his own emotions. He just wants to be loved. He gets ate up by his own emotions. The emotions get tied and tried. Emotions get tied up on Loved Up and Emotional.
Summer Kisses is a bonus track that appeared on the iTunes version of Emotional in 2013 to hype up the release of the album which obviously worked because the song itself charted #5 on the iTunes Charts for a few solid days. Summer Kisses came as a digital download only. So those with the CD will be dissatisfied to find out this track is probably not on there.
Lil Eddie gets emotional on the song Emotional. His singing and lyrics display such raw emotion. He gets in touch with his emotional side on this song. Emotional is truly such a deep song. His vocal range is very sultry throughout the song. He gets ate up by his own emotions. The emotions get tied and tried. Emotions get tied up. Lil Eddie gets in touch with emotional health in terms of health from an educational aspect.
He has been practicing using his voice as he is a vocal coach for the TV show The X Factor US currently while being part of a songwriter deal with EMI Publishing as he is a song writer.
Lil Eddie gets even more emotional on the song Hurt My Lil Feelings more than he does all the other songs on the Emotional album. This song filled with such raw emotion yet you can feel a negative vibe as you listen to it. Heartbroken sadness is two terms to describe this song.
Lil Eddie woke up again heartbroken in sadness. He wonders exactly how anyone could hurt his lil feelings? He made a vow inside in despair. The one that come in between what we shared yesterday. He wished we’d found somebody better than us. But the love in the relationship wasn't there. They say true love never dies, however, that's not the case here. How could you hurt his lil feelings?
Now Lil Eddie sit around pissing time, smoking cigarettes and wine. Why does it have to hurt so good? With every little drug he tastes, it just burns more than yesterday. Why did we have to begin? Your kisses are true to him and me. Not all of the love is lost. However the trust in the relationship is not present.
Lil Eddie takes his feelings off the shelf on the song Ready or Not. Eddie has heart as this is one of his songs that is romance theme being based off of love. Lil Eddie doesn't get too emotional on this song however as he does on the songs Emotional or Miracles.
Now that Lil Eddie has got you by yourself, he is going to take his feelings off the shelf. Eddie has some things he wants to share with you. His heart is burning, yearning for your love. He promised he won't break your heart. Ready or not. It's now or never. Love doesn't wait forever. You've know each other for quite some time so now it's only right we cross the line.
Lil Eddie takes a chance on the song Take A Chance. In life, we all have to take chances. We often face uncertainty when taking these chances. But miracles do happen when we take these chances. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. That is why we must take these chances. Of course there is a risk that comes along with every chance you have.
His vocal range has clearly improved since his last album called Already Yours. Just listen to the song closely as you will hear and see the details from Lil Eddie. Take A Chance is another one of those Lil Eddie songs that is filled with raw emotion and high energy in singing. Take A Chance is an inspirational song by Lil Eddie.
Miracles do happen on the song Miracles. Down and out in the dirt Lil Eddie has been hoping to be heard while screaming top of my lungs. They turn their heads as no one's concerned. Lil Eddie knows people see him. He's just kept out of sight, out of mind. T-Boz of TLC is featured on the bridge. T-Boz used to drive around in circles tryin' to find the answers going nowhere.
Every time one door closed another opened. Every single no is brought to a yes. He believes in miracles. You believe in miracles. We all need to believe in miracles. God performs miracles everyday every time. Everything happens in time.
5/5*****!

Lil Band O' Gold album review
First You Cry has that gritty guitar sound similar to country music. Take notice of the steel pedal noise. The song First You Cry was co-produced by C.C. Adcock. The vocal work and arrangements are wonderful and superb. First You Cry laments into a mournful mood. The title itself is fitting for a sad love song. Notice the gritty sound of the steel pedal guitar here.
You can hear the Cajun music in the Cajun Twist song. Cajun Twist has the raw sound of early 60s pop . Cajun Twist is fairly similar to Zydeco music. The raw sound of The Cajun Twist song deserved to have a music video and deserved to be a single. Cajun Twist as a choice for a select single would have been an excellent idea. The song would have gotten radio play if Cajun Twist were a single. This song would have been a hot song on Louisiana radio stations. Cajun Twist is a perfect dance song!
Shirley has that raw sound of early 60s pop. Shirley is a ballad of lament and sadness in spite of being a romance ballad. The song Shirley proves to be a sad song of love lost.
Parlez Nous a Boire ('let us talk of drinking, and not of marriage') has a hard driven bass line accompanied by a kick drum with some hard-edged vocals. This song is a perfect drinking song for a romantic night. Some dancers might even tango to this song. Think slow dance.
Lil Band O' Gold bills itself as a Swamp Rock supergroup from Louisiana. Lil Band O' Gold is the rock in swamp rock! This self-titled debut album is the pinnacle of swamp rock. It's one of the best albums to come from Louisiana State.
Despite getting nationwide distribution from Shanachie, the Lil Band O Gold album was overlooked. Music fans had slept on this album leaving the band to be a regional hit only. The band should have looked into the promotional aspect of this album more than the production aspect.

Crafty - The Introduction album review
This album was released in 1997 on Sweet-P's Deuce 8 Productions. Sweet-P did most of the production for this album. The production style is similar to Doodooism and G-Funk rap. Basically the production style is similar to San Antonio rap even though Crafty is a rap artist from Seattle, Washington. This album has that Seatown Funk sound. Gangsta rap meets funk on this album. A Sweet P and Crafty combination led this album to be a success in the Seattle underground music scene.
In fact Seattle Rap is often overlooked along with San Antonio Rap. Seattle Rap with the exceptions of Sir Mix A Lot, Kid Sensation, and SIC ILL is very much slept on. This album is another one of those albums that was overlooked in the gangsta rap era of 1992 to 2007. Leading this album to be lost in the gangsta rap era.
The whole album is so dope! In fact, the album was slept on by most rap collectors. That's why the price for this CD is so high. There is a high demand for this album on CD. That's why you see The Introduction album selling higher than $300 (US Dollars)!

Kid Sensation - Back Home album review
Seattle's Sir Mix A Lot ex-protege Kid Sensation delivers to us a new rap album with a breath of freshness. The quality of the sound and production is clear cut. He uses updated techniques for production. The flow smooth with the sound.He does not adhere to music industry standards or the pressure that comes along with it. Back Home is his rebound album. Back Home has an old school feel with a new school sound. Funk meets hip hop and rap on Back Home. Kid Sensation has become a big name in the field of music production as a respected producer and sports industry.
The rap song Back Home serves as a welcoming to Ken Griffey Jr. to the town of Seattle that made him a MLB All Star. This song marked Griffey's return to the Seattle Mariners.
Caramel Drop is a short sweet subtle rap song with a breath of freshness. The R&B chorus lays down some angelic harmonious vocals. Rap meets R&B on Caramel Drop. Kid Sensation himself produced the entire song. All the ladies will enjoy this song.
Included in this album also is a 20th anniversary remix of certified gold hit Back To Boom with Seattle pioneer rapper Sir Mix A Lot! The production is updated to match up with technological standards of today. Kid Sensation brings out the Seatown Funk in the remix of Back To Boom.
Dig the flow and word play on No Respect! It has the Kid Sensation sound written all over it with that Seatown Funk.

Sir Mix A Lot - Swass album review
Sir Mix A Lot brings out the best in Seattle rap and hip hop with the Swass album from 1989 on Warner Bros./Nastymix. Although Swass is the pinnacle of Seattle rap, Swass contains some hip hop influenced sounds. Cool hip hop influenced beats are heard throughout Swass. The production is heavy ridden with bass. Sir Mix A Lot also brings out the best in Seatown Funk on this album. Swass is a Seatown classic liked among both old and new fans of Sir Mix A Lot.
My Hooptie was the buzzing single back in the day. It had everyone on the dance floor inside clubs. The track was a brilliant choice for a single. It proved to be a hit across radio stations nationwide on radio waves. The track dominated radio waves at one time. My Hooptie had all the freaks and players dancing.
On I Got Game, Sir Mix A Lot drives around in his hooptie all over Seattle all day where he goes out to pick as many freaks as he can. It's a great driving cut. Sir Mix A Lot is not a new player to this game.
Gortex is a tight humorous rap track about the Cotex brand of tampons. The lyrics are what makes Gortex humorous. A light touch of humor makes Gortex hilarious yet odd. Don't get me wrong. Gortex is funny.
5/5*****!

Limousine - Hot Pursuit EP review
The production of Hot Pursuit boasts an enormous sound at high quality. Being that the sound quality is set at such high quality. Their two guitars together can pultrude and create some fat heavy obscene bass notes. Both guitars and bass create a great feeling when done correctly of course. Hot Pursuit is a cluster of music. The album delivers a sound that rattles your ribcage. Their pultruding heavy ridden percussion ensemble via drums and unrelenting bass release an onslaught of melodious harmonies.
Limousine releases a fist of fury musically with heavy pultruding unrelenting bass on Fits of Rage. They do not relent their anguish of rage. The whole song is fire. Loud obscene distorted guitar notes dominate Fits of Rage. Fits of Rage relinquishes itself into a fit of rape appropriately. Fiera’s Work is one of Limousine’s lighter calmer works. A drum kit takes charge of the percussion bit. The percussion has a much lighter presence not dominating the song as much. The vocals are very clear.
4/5****!!

SAC - Freedom Or Death album review
SAC is Serious Ass Criminals from Sacramento, California. You may have heard of SAC from Brotha Lynch Hung - 24 Deep or X-Raided - Psycho Active from 1992. Serious Ass Criminals is a rap group and not a single individual as some fans may have you think by popular belief. Other than that, SAC is a rap group composed of 5 individuals by the names of Kaos (Kareem Jackson), Big O [Big O is Anthony Wiggins and not Omar Gooding contrary to popular belief.], LA Chill (Willie Charles, the producer for X-Raided - Xorcist), and Shotgunbig. SAC released an album on cassette only called Freedom Or Death in 1992 on Accent Records.
Green Bud is rap track that is an ode to marijuana. The Green Bud track also pays homage to many other drugs besides marijuana as well. But the posse cut Green Bud is mainly about marijuana. Green Bud is similar to Sac-A-Indo on X-Raided - Vengeance Is Mine album. Think of Sac-A-Indo from X-Raided - Vengeance Is Mine when you listen to Green Bud.
SAC goes political on the Freedom Or Death track. SAC vents out against the American justice system for all the years of injustice and oppression against blacks in America. All SAC wants is freedom. Freedom Or Death is a no holds barred track. Freedom Or Death is another posse cut by the infamous SAC rap group. Gritty tales of street life stories are told in a political fashion.
Smoke The Devil’s Ass is a track similar to Back Fade and 24 Deep. Gritty tales of street life and horrid murder stories are told by the group SAC. SAC goes horrorcore on this track.
4/5****!

Handsome JET - Honto ￢(゜~゜)Г. album review
Jet Boogie is a Handsome Jet melody of all the songs on the Honto album onto one track. Think of this song as a mega melody. A loud, heavy hard rock mega melody. Handsome JET does his usual chanting and music.
Kimi no tonari ni (君のとなりに・・・) is similar to Jet Boogie as it is a loud hard rock/heavy metal mega melody song. Handsome JET himself takes the lead in this song as a vocalist. The volume is set quite loud! A loud, heavy hard rock mega melody is what it sounds like.
Futari wa Ai Ai [二人はラブラブ(仮)] is a love song about temporary love. Futari wa Ai means temporary love. Relationships don't last very long. This relationship of love proved only to be temporary.
Dusk is a perfect song to play at night during the peaceful nighttime. Dusk has that peaceful nighttime vibe to it.
[Electronic rock musician YUEI had nothing to do with this album. Handsome Jet is the name of the lead singer of the coincidental band Handsome JET. Handsome JET is Handsome Jet, YUEI (Yuei Uematsu), and Toshio Sakurai.]
Sadly however, Honto was the only album from Handsome JET that was ever released. Lead singer Handsome JET died in May 2008 in a traffic accident while riding a motorcycle in Japan. Handsome JET would have taken off to become a national success if the lead singer hadn't died. Handsome JET sang a multitude of songs from Konami originals and licensed covers alike. His real name has never been revealed and is not known. He is credited as Handsome JET or Jetto-san (ジェットさん).

Coop MC - The Hilltop EP review
Coop MC - The Hilltop was released on Showin’ Love Records from Dallas, Texas in 2014 on cassette and vinyl in limited edition. Coop MC gives us some funky fresh, smooth laid back G-Funk material never heard before! The Hilltop was recorded from 1997 to 1999 during the Phetamine recording sessions when he recording under the name Phetamine. These tracks were never released officially until now. The Hilltop showcases the best of Fort Worth next to Twisted Black, Six2, PIG, MC E-Rock, GuGu, Erotic D, Uptight, and One Gud Cide. The Hilltop is an EP rather than an album due to its short duration of time.
Watt Up Homie has that smooth laid back G-Funk sound with a funky fresh. Ernie G produced this track giving it that Funky Town sound he well known for in the underground music scene. The monotonous bass line gives Watt Up Homie a light touch of funk. The production quality is super clean as the vocals are very clear. There are no flaws present in the vocals.
Succa Free tells us how Coop MC is staying sucker free in the 90s. So you know what time it is when Coop MC grabs the mic in this bitch. The production quality is much lower on this track than Watt Up Homie. Succa Free represents gangsta rap and G-Funk at its finest. Succa Free uses the sample of Juicy - Sugar Free. The track Succa Free seems to have a demo that was never fully mastered. For some reason, Coop MC’s vocals seem to sound very similar to the dark Brotha Lynch Hung on Succa Free.
You Need A Friend has a similar vibe to My Woman as You Need A Friend is similar to My Woman. You Need A Friend represents gangsta rap and G-Funk at its finest.
5/5*****!!

Fo-Deep album review
The album was released in 1994 on cassette from Deep Style Records. Fo-Deep was on. There are only 4 tracks on this cassette. The deep vocals are sung in an alto voice. Variants of the alto sax are used on the album. The mood for album is mellow. A lot of the songs are slow paced love jams. BANGTOWN is the main producer for the album as he is for all the other Fo-Deep albums.
Naked is an in bed sexual healing love song along with Mutha Nature. For some reason, Naked will remind you of DJ Screw’s style. All syruped out. Naked is a perfect song to make love to, take a bubble bath to, or play during a romantic night. In fact, Naked is the perfect love song/slow jam for a romantic night. The song itself is pretty raunchy and X-Rated.
Here we are during a hot summer night naked in a bubble bath. Legs are around necks. Vaginal sex is performed. The Naked song gets raunchy and X-Rated right in the middle. The bath was hot, warm, and steamy. It was a steamy bath. The saxophone played in the middle gives Naked that Marvin Gaye vibe.
Mutha Nature is jazz driven and heavy percussion ridden resulting in a smooth R&B melody. Respect is what we should give to Mutha Nature. An acappella accompanies the song. Fo-Deep chose an Afrocentric selection of percussion by using bongos, conga, and djembe. In other words, Fo-Deep went the Afrocentric route when they performed this song.
Mutha Nature is a dedication to the beautiful black women of the world. These females are the backbones of our families and children.
Keep It Mellow is a mellow R&B song that is a slow jam. Keep It Mellow is a mellow R&B song that also turns and transitions into a slow jam. It is quite obvious that Fo-Deep was inspired by the smooth sounds of R&B/Soul. Keep It Mellow keeps it mellow. A transition of calmness to mellow is one term to describe this track.
The Fo-Deep Theme is quite mellow, slow, and smooth. One has to owned if the Fo-Deep Theme is a slow jam. The Fo-Deep Theme the posse cut for this Fo-Deep album.
4/5****!

Norah Jones - The Fall album review
In terms of promotion, Capitol Records and Blue Note did not put forth very much effort into promoting The Fall album from 2009 as they did with Come Away With Me, Feels Like Home, and Thinking About You. In fact, The Fall undersold what Thinking About You sold. The Fall went platinum selling 1 million units while Thinking About You went 2x platinum selling 2 million units. It was probably due to the issue also that Norah Jones had taken a new direction by experimenting with different sounds and dealing with a new set of collaborators. One notable producer being Jacquire King, along with Ryan Adams, and frequent partner Jesse Harris. Those are the reasons why The Fall didn’t sell too well.

Greg Goines - Chauncy's Revenge album review
Chauncy's Revenge is the 1st release from Chicago gangsta rapper Greg Goines. (Greg Goines is from Chicago, Illinois, US.) This is that album on cassette that is reputedly known for featuring the original version of Chauncy's Revenge seldomly heard in the Chicago underground music scene. As you can tell by looking at the graphic design on this cassette, it was printed and manufactured by Disc Makers in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Chauncy's Revenge is a dope gangsta rap album you do not want to miss out on! Pick this up when you have the chance!
This album features the original version of Chauncy's Revenge. Chauncy's Revenge is the highlight track for this album of course. Chauncy's Revenge is what launched Greg Goines reputation to be widely respected in the Chicago underground music scene along with the Chicago rap scene. Samples from the Scarface movie are used in Chauncy's Revenge. (The Scarface movie is a classic crime action film.)
Recorded Live Band is where Greg Goines gets a live band to perform the Cocaine Makes The Hood. The whole track was recorded in one take live with a live band performing.
4/5****

Billy Blade - Trials of Billy Blade album review
If one didn’t know any better, one would assume that Trials of Billy Blade was a country music album on cassette. But Trials of Billy Blade is a rap album. Country music meets spoken word and rap music on Trials of Billy Blade. Billy is a byproduct of Ohio rap that has been overlooked due to the likes of Bone Thugs N Harmony, Mo Thugs, Bone Brothers, B.O.S., and Bow Wow.
The Introduction is where spoken word meets rap music although The Introduction spoken word is mostly spoken word ironically speaking. The Introduction is a blend of spoken word and rap music. Somehow spoken word escapes into rap music.
Billy Blade exercises his First Amendment rights as allowed by the United States Constitution by using the freedom of speech clause on the track Speakin’ Freely. He exercises his First Amendment rights by using freedom of speech as allowed by United States Constitution freedom of speech clause in the First Amendment. In other words, he uses freedom of speech freely.
Colosseum turns into an all out lyrical freestyle battle with just Billy Blade himself going on the lyrical tip. His lyrics are not too polished or sophisticated though.

Dirty Jerk - Poor & Unknown Click album review
Dirty Jerk recorded his first EP Poor & Unknown Click with legendary Michigan producer Gee Pierce at U Be U Studios in Saginaw, Michigan during the 1990s. Humps, Clepto, Gee Pierce, Dirty Jerk and Mack Tha Jacka helped produce the EP. U Be U Studios and Skanless Family contributed big time for this EP along with others that had helped. This cassette came out in 1994.
Dirty Jerk is dope G-Funk out of Saginaw Michigan! The wicked bass and that G-Funk sound on this album will remind you of Above The Law. The whole album is fucking sick!! Dirty Jerk goes straight up reggae on the entire half of this album. So this EP has that raw cold skanless Saginaw sound. At the same time Dirty Jerk put out this EP, he promoted his Poor & Unknown Click from Cornelia Street located on the Eastside of Saginaw that never really took off. His Poor & Unknown Click included members such as himself, Hump, Clepto, Lethal Lega C, and others.
(Also Dirty Jerk was a member of the Skanless Family and Cornelia Street Hustlers. Dirty Jerk was a Reggae/Rap artist from Saginaw, Michigan.)
Anyway… The intro was real dope. It's short. It’s a Skanless Family telling us about who Dirty Jerk is. The intro tells us who Dirty Jerk really is. The intro itself is short but self-explanatory. Humps and Clepto produced this introduction at U Be Studios. Suck A Mean One is to all the haters out there. Dirty Jerk tells all them haters out there bluntly to just Suck A Mean One. The bass is reduced to a lower level oddly.
Niggaz Ain't Here is a dedication the ones who done passed away, the OG's, and the father figures who weren't present. Niggaz Ain't Here is subtle track that calms down the albums mood. The 90s G-Funk sounds also fairly prevalent here. Humps and Clepto produced this at U Be Studios.
Dirty Dirt Bag is another self-explanatory track just like the introduction telling us who Dirty Jerk really is and what he is all about. Humps and Clepto produced this introduction at U Be Studios. Dirty Jerk lent a hand in production as well.
Dirty Dirt Bag is a track has that G-Funk sound! Dirty Jerk goes straight up reggae on this one! The samples are crazy. Humps and Clepto use a sample of Slick Rick - The Rulers Back. (Just listen closely and you can tell.) The distorted drums and bass are very loud so this song is not recommended for small speakers. The bass is super heavy! Dirty Dirt Bag is more upbeat than the other tracks.
Reggae meets rap on Dirty Dirt Bag. Dirty Jerk goes straight up reggae on this one by using a Jamaican Patois accent in a rudeboy style. He masters the Jamaican Patois accent he uses and tools with a rudeboy sound & style. That is how reggae meets rap on the track Dirty Dirt Bag.
Dirty Jerk walks around the motherfucking city like a savage beast. Dirty Jerk keeps a .44 Mag on him at all times. The city of Saginaw is rough and rugged place. The streets there are raw. He doesn’t care about shit. That’s why he shoots cops. If you are not selling cocaine, then your ass is broke. You better get a hustle. If someone tries to stop Dirty Jerk from selling cocaine, then he drops them. Dirty Jerk’s a dirty dirt bag.
Dirty Jerk wants to blow up the White House as a peace offering from an anti-war movement. Dirty Jerk wants to blow up the White House as a humanitarian effort to end all wars that the United States is involved in. He wants to shoot at all those inside the White House. His plan to blow up the White House is an effort to get those wars to stop. This is Dirty Jerk’s solution to peace.
Dirty Jerk lives his life in the street with no remorse or regards toward anyone. He doesn’t follow the rules. He has no remorse towards anyone. He shows no regard for the rules. He doesn’t care. Nor does he show any regret for his actions. His state is set through the mind of a madman.
Hells Of Cornelius is about the daily life in the Eastside of Saginaw located on Cornelia Street that Dirty Jerk constantly faces on a daily basis. Dirty Jerk tells lurid horrifying details and aspects of the criminal lifestyle. Life of a hustler knows no boundaries or limitations. Hells Of Cornelius also discusses the gang rivalry between Cornelia Street Hustlers and other Saginaw street gangs. The wicked bass and that G-Funk sound will remind you of Above The Law. The whole track is fucking sick!!
Reggae meets rap on Hells Of Cornelius. Dirty Jerk goes straight up reggae on this one too by using a Jamaican Patois accent in a rudeboy style. He masters the Jamaican Patois accent he uses and tools with a rudeboy sound & style in other words. That is how reggae meets rap on the track Hells Of Cornelius.
At the beginning, there is a woman screaming "Help me!!!" along with a baby crying and howling in the background, which has that horror movie sample sound. The bass will rattle your speakers heavily! This song is not recommended for small speakers. Dirty Jerk proclaims himself as the “Original Rudeboy” Saginaw, Michigan.(Notice how the very beginning how Dirty Jerk uses a Jamaican rudeboy accent.) He also makes a reference to a Satanic ritual by saying he will drink someones blood which can be viewed as a reference to Satanism. Such as Wiccans for example. Dirty Jerk warns us to step back.
Now Dirty Jerk takes us on a journey down Cornelia Street through a criminal’s perspective set inside a criminal mindset. This is also viewed through a black males perspective. Dirty Jerk admits he can’t stand to make it in his own neighborhood because of the nasty environment which he is forced to face. He says his own neighborhood is nasty. Dirty Jerk says these niggaz that are low, down, and dirty are up to no good. It's real hard out there to be a g. That's just life in the Sag Nasty.
Dirty Jerk talks about how he and his brother Brad were partners in crime at one time. When bullets hit people, they can feel the impact that hurts them. Bullets do burn. People do get hurt by these bullets. He can’t afford to loose his life to a bullet. Dirty Jerk has a wild and crazy life. These young gangsters devote their lives to crime at the age of 12 only end up incarcerated in jail or deceased at the age of 21. Some of these young gangsters wind up ultimately in the penitentiary. Dirty Jerk keeps a pistol on him at all times. Cornelia Street is real hard. The criminal lifestyle is a living hell especially on Cornelia Street.
Dirty Jerk and his click (Cornelia Street Hustlers) got together to form a retaliation plan against their enemies. Cornelia Street Hustlers committed an act of driveby shooting towards a rival gang located on Genesee Street.
These enemies Cornelia Street Hustlers has beef with is rival gang Burt Street Boys (Burt Boys). Cornelia Street Hustlers have been having feuds with Burt Street Boys for many years. Dirty Jerk and Cornelia Street Hustlers are dressed in black because they are getting ready to commit a robbery. (Cornelia Street Hustlers is Dirty Jerk’s clique. So is Cornelia Street Hustlers.)
Dirty Jerk used to play around, but now he prays ever since he got popped. His life is based on a criminal lifestyle. A lot people on the streets of Saginaw snitch. He desperately needs money. The only way Dirty Jerk can make it out of his own neighborhood is if he makes it big as a rapper. His mother is praying on her knees that Dirty Jerk does not end up like his brother Brad. Dirty Jerk does not want to live life broke. He needs a hustle. The shit that he kicks is super real. Super realistic that is.
It's just too bad that Dirty Jerk did not get the promotion and push he truly deserved. He should've had more money to do so. Dirty Jerk had the talent and the personality make it but just never got that break. If Dirty Jerk and the Skanless Family had money for promotion towards their albums, then they would be on the same level as Bone Thugs N Harmony is today.
5/5*****!!

Gorillaz - The Fall album review
The Fall by Gorillaz is a revolutionary album for its time because all the songs for The Fall album were recorded on iPad in less than a few months and it sold millions within its first year of release. The Fall is the first album to be recorded on an iPad to sell millions of records and receive public acclaim from mainstream music critics. A reason why The Fall album was such a big deal is because this album is the first album to be recorded on an iPad to sell millions of records on a mainstream level. Electronic music is more prevalent on this album as it was with the Plastic Beach album. The album itself sold in great numbers online.
4/5****!!
