Review #68: Promo Only: Dance Radio March 2008

Reviewed on 2.26.2008 (Review #68)

Watz good it’s Frankie, and you’re not gonna believe this: This iz Review No. 26 for me this month. Why so many reviews? It’s Black History Month, and I felt like doing a CD/mixtape review EVERY SINGLE DAY this month (in honor of it). Ain’t I nuts, lol? Anyway, DEFINITELY ANTICIPATING THIS Promo Only right now ‘cause of not just it, but also from tha VERY GOOD day I had at college. I now hang out wit a new click, so new/better thingz have been happenin’. My new click iz this dude Jewison (who I mainly hang out wit), his boy Juice (who iz next-door roommates wit him and in my World History class), and my boy Rosco (who iz roommates wit Jewison’s boy). Today I hung mainly wit Jewison for about 2 hours, and it was some great shit (even tho we planned to go to tha mall for some shit, but didn’t have enough time – Hope it happens later this week tho)!! Here goes my review right now for tha Promo Only Dance Radio March 2008 CD!! Start Time: 10:04 PM | Video Game Playing: Super Mario RPG (for Super Nintendo) (on my computer)

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.
 
© 2008 CD Review (Review #68) reviewed on 2.26.2008 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.


01. Janet “Feedback (Wideboys Radio Edit)”

Her 10^th album just hit stores today, so it was a big day for her today. This iz a pretty good mix, even tho tha music iz kinda plain. I really like tha part right after tha 2^nd chorus (1:50) where it has tha intro to tha original speeded up. :tu From 1:58-2:12 where she sounds like she’s rappin’, it’s REAL TIGHT! “Flyer than a pelican…” :tu :tu HOT!! Oh yeah, and I just gave “feedback”. :wink: My Current Rating: 4.1

02. Ercola & Heikki L Feat. Jeremy Carr “Deep At Night (Adam K & Soha Radio Edit)”
Tha ID looks tight, so High AL No. 1! >>> Didn’t expect that quiet intro. Hopefully now I expect tha sexy vocals. Oh neva mind about tha vocals. I thought it was a girl on tha vocals. This has a lot of music on it, so this must be some vocal trance. 8) This iz different for Nervous Records to sign IMO. Yeah I love that there’s so much music in it. Nice and relaxing. This izn’t tha type of song I’d see at tha No. 2 slot on a Promo Only tho. My Rating: 3.8

03. Ian Carey Feat. Michelle Shellers “Keep On Rising (Radio Mix)”

Yeah I must be real excited from tha day today ‘cause I wanna hear all these new songs I neva heard before!! High AL No. 2!! >>> Sounds a lil’ odd, and I didn’t expect that music. Ian Carey remixed tha “City Life” song 2 years ago by Fallen Angels, and that had a lot better beat. This iz still decent tho. Decent vocals & music. It might take time for me to like more. My Rating: 3.6

04. Jesse McCartney “Leavin’ (Bimbo Jones Radio Edit)”

Oh no a “FTLD No Sign” should be put here, lol. He comes back, but why first on a dance CD? And what’s wit these fast BPMs on hit mixers? They NEED to be on tha DANCE songs!! Low AL… :oops: >>> I don’t hear 133 BPM. I hear tha usual Bimbo Jones feel (128). Just as I expected, I’m not really interested, even tho I can go wit that music. Why couldn’t they use this music for another hit mixer? Don’t waste it on this… Lol @ tha “she gon be singin’ ‘uh oh…’.” My Rating: 2.6

05. Kat DeLuna “Run The Show (Johnny Vicious Radio Mix)”

Been slowly losing my AL for this ‘cause Music Choice Dance iz playing this 14 FUCKING TIMES MORE than tha other adds they added last week. :( >>> Forget that chorus ‘cause it sounds plain. This has good music, and ya gotta give it up for Kat DeLuna ‘cause I think she got another pretty good dance produced remix on her hands. :tu Really good produced HM, and I didn’t expect to like it as I do. My Rating: 3.7

06. Samantha Cole “Angel Of Mine (Radio Edit)”

Her last remake “Obsession” (2005) was real bad. She now put this one out on Dauman Music, but it’s real slow on tha BPM. I hope it’s good ‘cause it looks like a remake of Monica’s song from tha late ‘90s “Angel Of Mine”. No AL. >>> OMG it’s so slow. I was correct on tha remake/cover guess. Sorta plain on tha music, but not bad. Sounds pretty good tho, and better than that 2005 remake! I think it’s gonna do good wit me tho whether it’s spins or my Top 10 Countdown. Startin’ to feel it more as it ends. :tu My Rating: 4.0

07. Alex Young “Cold (Radio Edit)”

Okay there’s a male here, and it’s VERY “cold” outside these dayz. When I was gonna go to tha mall wit Jewison today, I didn’t think it was that cold out. It just snowed like a ma’fucka. :( >>> Oh fuckin’ yes it’s a gurl! Likin’ that beat! :tu BANGIN’! Sounds different from some of tha other shit out now. “Sippin’ on hot chocolate” <- Yeah! :tu :) Sounds good. No wonder, I talked about my boy Jewison in tha preview to this joint. Hot shit! Hope it does its thang in tha future. If it doesn’t, you know who gon make it BIG: ME! My Rating: 4.6

08. JJ Flores & Steve Smooth Feat. Luvli “Being In Love (Radio Edit)”

I don’t wanna say anything but this: :rofl :rofl :rofl. >>> Sounds different from “Dancin’”. I only wanted to “ :rofl ” ‘cause of “Dancin’”. It’s pretty good. I can’t say anything bad about this song. Pretty good music wit those good vocals. :tu My Rating: 3.9

09. Leona Lewis “Bleeding Love (Moto Blanco Radio Edit)”

She gets good reviews (I think she was on American Idol or somethin’) so let’s see what’s up. >>> Moto Blanco wit these “not bad” beats. It sounds more discoish to me in tha music, but it sounds pretty good. Not bad. Yeah good lyrics too. My Rating: 3.7

½time: I think I have a lot of AL for No. 10! But yeah, pretty good start wit it bein’ like ¼ real good, ¼ unexpectically good, and 2/4 decent/below decent.

10. Fans Of Jimmy Century “Hot Sahara (Lenny B Radio Mix)”

First off, I feel like I just pissed in my pants ‘cause of how anticipating it looks. Second, its got “Jimmy” in tha artist’s name (which Jimmy The DJ iz someone I have a connection wit in Louisiana), and that FUCKIN’ HOT-ASS title & Lenny B on tha mix! I think this iz my HIGHEST AL (not statistically), but I’m not sure what’s left, but anyway, VERY VERY HIGH AL!!!!!!! >>> Oh now I feel like I just shitted in my pants by hearin’ FEMALE vocals!! :tu Yeah bangin’ music WITHOUT that certain Lenny B sound in tha chorus. :tu This iz FUCKIN’ HOT and I know it. If nobody plays, I’m gonna start airing April, and I’m goin’ to Florida April 30^th, so this gon be a HOT one wit that HOT-ASS weather! “Heatin’ up tha jungle” <- Wow hot lyrics throughout tha whole song! :tu My Rating: 4.9

11. The Young Punx! “You’ve Got To (Norman Cook Radio Mix)”

I see Ultra Records wanted to go faster than “Now You’re Gone”… by 16 more BPMs! Highest BPM for a dance song on PO (164). Due to that, it’s statistically my Highest AL (even tho No. 10 was my personal Highest AL). I have a very High AL and expecting techno. If it’s drum ‘n’ bass or trance, I will fuckin’ fly in tha clouds, lmfao!!! >>> OMG great, and I think its got a lil’ drum ‘n’ bass style mixed wit techno! :tu Yes!! :tu This iz so fuckin’ great (in a different way). It iz cracking me up just ‘cause it sounds so different. :rofl I dunno but I just fuckin’ love this along wit tha day today! I think THIS DAY iz makin’ me all in this good mood! :tu My Rating: 4.7

12. Miley Cyrus “See You Again (Johnny Coppola Radio Edit)”

I’m glad that I like tha original and that tha original has nice dance elements in it. I’m HOPING this does too, and not many elements of tha original! High AL! >>> Okay music iz kinda plain fast of type. Tha chorus music sounds good, and they changed up that beat at tha end of tha chorus/right before tha 2^nd verse. Feelin’ it. Great HM, and I hope it gets out there! My Rating: 4.1

Intermission: Okay No. 11 I’m still LMFAO at it ‘cause that was some FUNNY-ASS shit! Put me in a REAL good mood, but when it ended, I feel all hot and kinda startin’ to feel odd… :(

13. Kristine W “The Boss (Love To Infinity Radio Edit)”

Another VERY HIGH AL!! LTI had a VERY good produced song by Simply Red “Sunrise” (Fall 2003), so that’s why I’m wanting to hear this and tha lovely Kristine W!!! >>> Oh yeah Kristine W doin’ her own thing as she releases this song on her own label, Fly Again Music. :tu Feelin’ tha fresh sound to this and those background vocals on tha chorus sounded odd (I’m kinda fishy about background vocals that sound like gospel people). Other than that, this iz good shit. :tu That music reminds me of somethin’ that was from back in tha day that sounded real good. My Rating: 4.2

14. Attorney Client Privilege Feat. DBL “Nonsense Words (House Music Is Not About) (Radio Edit)”

Here comes some more *UNSIGNED HYPE*. Tha label on PO says “DanceMusicLabel.Com”. I finna go to that website right now. *Goes…* Ahhh… It looks like it’s a part of Rod Carrillo’s label, Carrillo Music (remember “Arizona Bump”). :lol: And even on tha MS page they have listed, “AB” iz on there! :rofl Anyway, High AL. I wanna hear this! >>> Just like wit “AB”, it’s weird, lol. I like that plain music tho. Either way, this iz a lot better than Rod Carrillo’s song on last year’s March ’07 CD (wit Georgia Nicole & Amador “Spotlight”). Good vocals and I love that plain repetitive music. :tu My Rating: 4.2

15. Cezar “Keep On Trying (Spencer & Hill Radio Edit)”

What’s this? >>> Didn’t expect tha male vocals, but I have a feeling I’m goin’ to like this. :tu Cool music and different sound. Good thing this song iz mainly about motivation. :tu Gotta motivate yourself! :tu My Rating: 4.1

Note: Look at all that FUCKIN’ consistentness from No. 10-No.15!

16. Andrew Spencer & The Vamprockerz “Zombie (2-4 Grooves Remix Edit)”
Got a confusing High AL (lol) for this one. This iz signed to CAPP Records (responsible for Rob Mayth “Barbie Girl” but also Drea “Free”). This already got added to iPR (and labels like this usually don’t go anywhere), so I dunno if I’m gonna like this or be anticipated that much… BUT FUCK IT, IT’S NO. 16!! I’M ALWAYS ANTICIPATED FOR NO. 16!!! >>> OMG a gurl again! I thought this was gonna be a rock/guy song! :rofl How weird wit that rockish beat. This made iPR? I would’ve NEVA guessed if I heard this before hand. :rofl Sounds pretty good (of course)! It’s 34 degrees out and I only have an undershirt on. It cured my odd feeling from before (along wit these BANGERZ)! :tu My Rating: 4.0

17. Sarah Atereth “It Doesn’t Take Much (Dave Audé Radio Edit)”

It’s such a GREAT SONG! I’m SO GLAD Music Choice Dance plays tha Salosso Radio Edit from tha November 2007 Promo Only Dance Radio edition! High AL on this remix!! >>> At least you can hear tha vocals better in this version. I’m likin’ that quiet music by Dave Audé. :tu Shit, this iz a great remix. This edition of Promo Only has been VERY CONSISTENT! :tu My Rating: 4.3

18. David Guetta Feat. Chris Willis “Love Is Gone (Mike D Remix Radio)”

Who iz Mike D? VERY LOW AL!! >>> What a MA’FUCKIN’ way to DESTROY tha consistentness. This even sounds a lil’ better than tha one that was on tha November ’07 CD ‘cause of tha “very lil’” added effects. But still, this was EXTREMELY NOT NECESSARY. Oh and because this iz on here and was on tha last one, what am I expecting to see a “Goodnight Tonight” type of song as tha last song? Lol… My Rating: N/A <- Yeah it’s NOT FAIR to give it a rating IMO. Tha other version I gave 4.2.

19. Wibby White “Never Too Much (Radio Version)”
What could this be? It better be female vocals since it’s like 122 BPM. Very slow song at tha end… Tha “Radio Version” in tha mix tells me it’s gonna be a Pop song. If not, maybe an Electronica song. Curious AL! >>> OMG male vocals… And I’m scared! :oops: :oops: Tha quality sounds a lil’ fucked up (luckily) unlike tha other songs. Lol @ “I go to work to HUSTLE!” When that dude says “neva too much,” it sounds like an old song. This izn’t SO bad for me at least. My Rating: 3.4

Overall: End Time: 12:08 AM. That was some GOOD shit from this CD! Loved so many songs! I’m currently in a “phase change”, so I think that also added elements to this GREAT CD! I’m back to LOVIN’ it at my college and it looks like this CD just made things better! I can’t wait ‘til I go to college EVERY SINGLE DAY for this whole semester to hang out wit my click!!
