Solo On A Blunt
A tight track to start the EP. Baby Ray raps fast on this track with a
good flow and lyrics as well as good production on the track. "Nationwide
putting it down, steve said lets invest and be hogs in the O-Town, and
its on, the block gone hot, same time busters looking player hate because
i came out" 9 /10
02.
Ain't
Nothin' Like The Town
This was the hit single from this EP where Baby Ray raps about Oakland
and give respect to Oakland rappers as well as other Bay rappers and bay
cities. Great production on the track and raps by Baby Ray. "Put
the town on the map, take it back to 89, bumping Too Short, Pooh, Dame
and 415". Baby Ray names Oakland rappers in the last verse
on the song such as Too Short, 3X Krazy, Luniz, Dru Down, Richie Rich,
and Seagram then name bay rappers whos putting it down. Probably the best
song on the EP, A classic Oakland song. 10 /10
03.
N.I.G.G.A
Produced by Raymond Randle. The chorus of this song uses what 2Pac said
Nigga stood for Never Ignorant Getting Goals Accomplished. The song is
about police brutality with tight lyrics like
"Crooked cops blame it on the young black male, had it on the
new that we was pushing crack sells, one cop shot to death with no badge,
they're looking for the man, may i ask, got away clean the evidence gone,
second cop shot this week shot through the dome" and
"The cop looked scared mouth open wide, knowing im gonna blast
him right between his eyes, mug frowning hard, i had a rough day, i get
your fucking pocket, now you gonna lay, voice full of anger im speaking
for my niggas, niggas never ignorant i pulled on the trigger, one more
dead this time they realise, getting goals accomplished, niggas never
die" 9 /10
04. Now
What?
A good beat and production from Baby Ray. A good chorus which goes
"Making these moves dont understand what you get into, you wanna
funk. while nigga now what" Its about beef with people who used to
be homies hating on Baby Ray. "you're telling me to squash it,
im a fool if i do, playing hating on my moves, i've got some juice for
youre crew, you aint true to the game, how the fuck you survive, youre
dealing with a soldier for life, thats down to ride on youre whole click"A
good diss track. 9 /10
05. Makin'
Records
Great production on this song with a g-funk type of feel to it.
the hook is "Makin records for you niggas". Tight lyrics again
from Baby Ray. "Redneck devils cant hold me, so dont hold me,
rather see a young nigga in a coffin niggas get prepared for the shit,
finally found a way out the game to go legit, having it my way licking
it or not, giving a dam about a cop, you'll get your muthafuckin ass popped,
pop pop pop, till these crooked muthafuckers hit the dust giving you a
taste of what you did to us"
9 /10

up my mack, get back, you dont wanna see us hooride" the rappers
take it in turn for a verse all of which have good verses."A good
group track and good way to finish the EP. "8.5 /10
Overall

throughout. If you see it pick it up.
