I simply love the vibe of this song! The video looks like they had a great time. I’m having mixed feelings about Kendrick’s shorts though. Check out the official music video.
I haven’t really paid attention to Cassie since Me and U, but this mixtape has my nose wide open. Maybe it’s the production. Maybe it’s her voice. Maybe it’s the perfect mixture of the two. Rocka By Baby makes me want to slip into something sexy and reach my hands into my man’s pants. “I don’t wanna waste no time the mood is right” (Addiction). You can definitely tell that she’s hopelessly in love and it’s cute. “Feeling I ain’t gotta look no more cause you’re what I’ve been searching for lately” (Sound of Love). It almost makes me want to. Nah. Anywho, features from some heavy hitters like Rick Ross, Fabolous, Pusha T, Meek Mill and French Montana set this tape off. I liked the samples from New Jack City. Who wouldn’t? It’s a classic movie. But they weren’t really needed other than to tie the tape back to its title.
Rocka By Baby speeds up at RockaByeBaby, which is an okay song to say the least. But it’s tolerable. “My mama told me make that nigga spend it” (Bad Bitches). I’m screaming bad bitches to the floor. I can’t even front on the hype! I wish I had a whip because I would definitely let this joint rock. I thoroughly enjoyed this mixtape, and I will be on the lookout for any of her future projects.
You want it. I need it. You got it. I’m feigning. A sauna. I’m hot as a phoenix. You fuck me. Fuck me like you mean it. Spank me. You know I been a bad girl. – I Love It
I am not even going to lie to ya’ll. I avoided watching this video for a long time. Maybe because the loss was still fresh in my heart. But once I actually sat down and clicked on that link, it didn’t hurt. Yeah, it made me a little misty-eyed, but it made me hopeful and motivated. Like Noah said, “Ima hug my kids a little longer”. Very dope video! RIP Kleph.
Ok. Wait. I don’t know what the hell I’m listening to. Have I heard any of Yelawolf’s songs before? Let me Google this nigga. This is what I get for wanting to listen to something different. I have no clue what Yelawolf is saying but his country ass has my attention. He completely lost me with F.A.S.T. Ride, but Box Chevy Part 4 grabs my ass. Maybe I’m under the influence. Music sometimes sounds extremely better while doing drugs. Anywho, I don’t know what it is but I’m digging Yelawolf’s style. I’m not saying I would go out and buy his album, but I wouldn’t mind listening to his future music. Trunk Music Returns has a few features from Paul Wall, A$AP Rocky, and Raekwon. That’s an interesting mixture.
The tracks that stood out to me were: Rhyme Room, Tennessee Love and Gangster. The mixtape was a good listen, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to listen to it on the regular.
