Jay & I do...Drake's "So Far Gone" Mixtape

So my favorite person named Jay and I decided to go at it again and review Drake's latest mixtape, So Far Gone.


Beezy: Lust for Life let's go...

Jay: Confession. I don't think I've listened to this song more than 2 times..

Beezy: really?
Beezy: why?

Jay: As far as I'm concerned, this mixtape doesn't start until Houstatlantavegas...

Beezy: I love Lust for Life
Beezy: It's a perfect intro
Beezy: It sets the tone for the mixtape

Jay: Sounds good to me.. I don't get niggas beef with Drake's singing...
Jay: I think he's just as dope singing on notes as he is spitting bars...

Beezy: He really is

Jay: Damn, I like this shit..

Bre'ana: I love the fadeout
Jay: Put your ones up in the air for herrrrrrrr.. Jay: That actually was a dope intro.. Jay: I'm glad I finally listened to it......... for the 3rd time

Beezy: lol
Beezy: here's your favorite track
Beezy: Houstalantavegas

Jay: This shit is the lick.. fuck anyone who thinks otherwise Jay: I be on my shower karoake to this junt
Jay: Hittin' the highnotes under the showerhead and shit
Jay: This mixtape really feels like an album.. I hope his album is on a similar vibe Jay: AND SHE DANNNNNNNCE TO THE SOOONG

Beezy: I just hope you're not dancing in the shower to this song

Jay: No comment

Beezy: we can't have you slippin' and shit
Beezy: tryin' to get your Omarion on...

Jay: Put your ones up in the aiiiiiiir Jay: This shit is fire

Beezy i love the fact that he makes you listen to the entire song

Jay: Drake is a dope ass rapper, but I wish he had more charisma.. dude reminds me of Elzhi.. technicially sound, but he comes off as a robot.

Beezy: His swagger is about to pop off when the album comes out

Jay: It's impossible to lose you, because I never had you...... although I would be glad to

Beezy: Pure poetry

Jay: I'd love to hear this shit in a public setting.. damn me and my anti-club taste in music
Jay: This is lap dance music.. POWERFUL SHIT RIGHT HERE, DUN

Beezy: Successful
Beezy: I want money, cars, the clothes, the hoes...I suppose :-/

Jay: I've always been a big fan of Trey Songz, but he's goes overboard on the Kells dickriding way too often..
Jay: THIS is the best song on the mixtape
Jay: If you're reading this and you feel otherwise, I otherwise feel you deserve to die

Beezy: LMAO. Leave my readers alone
Beezy: and this isn't the best song on the mixtape
Beezy: it's one of the better ones
Beezy: I still can't get on board with Trey yet...he's still a hook singer to me

Jay: Trey can spit too
Jay: The thing that kills me about Drake is his flow is so effortless.. his near rhyme skills are crazy too...

Beezy: and the beats compliment the chill in his flow
Jay: This is homeless nigga on the corner with a cup full of quarters music.. THIS IS THE RECESSION ANTHEM Jay: Can a nigga be successful?! Jay: Please?!?!

Beezy: Bwahahahahaha
Beezy: Don't let me see a man on the corner blasting this shit
Beezy: And if I see someone holding a sign that says "I want the money, cars, clothes...the hoes. I suppose", I'm going to smite you.
Jay: Drake's got an ill ear for beats.. he picks shit that wouldn't work for most rappers, but is perfect for him. Jay: This song is 12th man on the NBA roster music Jay: Terry Porter is probably listening to this right now with a cheek full of Xanax Jay: Nigga's like "Damn.. can I just.. be successful? Please?"

Beezy: Dude you are crazy.

Jay: Drake is the every man's rapper.. fuck Eminem and his Mommy problems Jay: I can't relate to my Moms running after me with a knife.. I can, however, relate to getting layed off and calling up the unemployment office like.. "I just wanna be.. I just wanna be successful.. NIGGA CAN I GET AN INTERVIEW?!" Jay: please!!!!!!????? Jay: Aww shit, my nigga Wayne.. he's been sober lately.. nigga's been goin' in on alot of tracks.. Dade Wayne is dead.. T-Wayne is dead.. Weezy is back, bitches!

Beezy: Let's Call It Off

Jay: I heart this song

Beezy: This is unexpected because no rapper would use a Peter Bjorn & John sample
Beezy: I love it

Jay: First tine I heard it, I was rocking a question mark above my head.. second time I heard it, I was dancing like Carlton..

Beezy: your tall ass doing the Carlton
Beezy: i quit

Jay: SING THAT SHIT DRAKE
Jay: DID YOOOOOOOOOOOOU AGREEEEEEEEE

Beezy: "The look on your face said you were expecting more."

Jay: White people would eat this shit up.. that nigga Drake needs to be poppin' wheelies in a wheelchair in the video..
Jay: Get 'em, Jimmy!

Beezy: Leave Jimmy alone! LMFAO
Beezy: Jimmy was my one!
Jay: That second verse was for the white folks.. Jay: This song is dope as hell.. goes hard in the shower too Jay: Jay gives it two shower heads up

Beezy: hittin your head on the ceilin' and shit trying to dance

Jay: So?
Jay: You can't tell me this beat isn't perfect for some Carlton swag
Jay: I'm snappin' my ass off right now

Beezy: it really is, but November 18th isn't
Beezy: I don't know how I feel about this one...
Beezy: but the bass in his voice is sexy as HAYLE

Jay: November 18th?
Jay: This nigga is rappin' over Kriss Kross.. I spotted the beat immediately.. I don't give a fuck if DJ Screw slowed it down.. it's still Kris Kross..

Beezy: I feel a Kriss Kross joke coming on

Jay: Dammit, you killed the element of surprise.. Jay: .......fuck it!

Beezy: I know you too well.

Jay: He should've spit over "Warm It Up, Kris"

Beezy: or "I Missed The Bus" would've sufficed

Jay: This song doesn't really do shit for me.. no showerheads for this junt Jay: I probably pissed off the entire city of Houston with that one, but oh well.. they're all gone of lean anyway...

Beezy: How about some Ignant Shit?
Beezy: do you dance in the shower to this one?

Jay: I don't give a shit what anyone says, Wayne went IN on this

Beezy: co-sign

Jay: You already know.. once the water hits my skin, I'm dancin' on niggas
Jay: Word to the ring around my tub

Beezy: lmao

Jay: Drake was nice too, but that nigga Wayne snapped

Beezy: Drake's flow was kinda predictable on this one...

Jay: He's off that Elzhi
Jay: Or alarm, or whatever...

Beezy: lol
Beezy: yeah this is a basic freestyle
Beezy: and you can tell

Jay: But what if those hipsters DON'T get along with those hood niggas? If you shoot Kanye, would he slap the shit out of you with his shag or purse first?
Jay: GET 'EM WAYNE
Jay: I'm going to the bank to make a big donation!
Jay: This nigga Wayne is so cold.. his voice is shot, but got dammit that's a rappin' ass nigga
Jay: Why is this nigga always rappin' about eatin' pussy though?
Jay: HOUSE FULL OF BITCHES LIKE TILA TEQUILA

Beezy: because that's his favorite meal
Beezy: A Night Off

Jay: This shit is fucking dope

Beezy: I have to admit...i'd throw the panties like a woman at a Luther concert in the 80s if Drake sung this on stage
Beezy: i'mjustsayin'

Jay: I used to hate Llyod, but he gained a fan with that "Get It Shawty" shit..
Jay: this is like 8 showerheads up
Jay: I even drop on my knees and do the Boyz II Men fist clinch to this junt

Beezy: I love Lloyd
Beezy: I met him and he's cool people

Jay: This nigga Lloyd is goin' in.. I never peeped the album he dropped last year
Jay: He's got a long ass nose.. that nigga can stir Koolaid with that junt
Jay: That nigga's nose looks like it belongs in Tyronne Biggum's pickle jar

Beezy: lmao

Jay: Being able to sing even makes the ugly niggas hearthrobs

Beezy: Say Whats Real

Jay: Drake snapped on here

Beezy: This is my 2nd favorite
Beezy: plus the "Say You Will" beat is killin it

Jay: Good choice...doesn't really get the shower treatment though

Beezy: this doesn't need the shower treatment

Jay: Drake is such a good rapper

Beezy: duh nigga duh

Jay: He's my favorite new rapper since Blu
Jay: His breath control is crazy too

Beezy: Blu is fuckin' dope too

Jay: I just seen my ex girl, standing with my next girl, standing with the girl that I'm fuckin' right now.. nigga, I been there
Jay: Three's company

Beezy: ugh...
Beezy: lmao

Jay: Damn, this nigga went in

Bre'ana: and it's continuous
Jay: I approve of any nigga with the "fuck school" mentality Jay: Oh shit.. I just found a blackberry with the side scroll! Jay: IT'S A CELEBRATION, BITCHES

Beezy: Little Bit is MY SHIT

Jay: Yeah, I thought this song would be wack, but noooo.. this shit is dope

Beezy: "Hands down...I'm too proud, though when eyes shut it's you i'm thinkin of"

Jay: I would never bump it in public, but in the sanctity of my bedroom? That shit beats my speakers like brain mass on a air bag

Beezy: and I love when he flows

Jay: I still have technical difficulty believing this is just a mixtape.. this nigga brought his triple A game

Beezy: seriously

Jay: I wonder what Lykke Li looks like.. I'm scared to find out....... do I google or not?

Beezy: go for it

Jay: I hope they never find out...

Beezy: "what they already know...know...know"

Jay: WTF Jay: I've seen her before! Jay: She was on "To Catch A Predator"! Jay: Was she the decoy???????

Beezy: LMAO
Beezy: foolishness...

Jay: How the hell do you pronounce her name?

Beezy: it's pronounced "Ly-kee Lee"

Jay: This song is the shit though

Beezy: Best I Ever Had

Jay: This nigga Drake is slick.. "Ladies always wanna know who this is for.. it's for YOU, bitch!" Jay: He sounds like Wayne when he says "Best I ever had" though.. kinda scary Jay: This is another song I don't really care for.. everyone else I know loves this shit.. why the hell would I waste my adulation on this when I have "Successful"? Jay: Beezy B, you're my everything.. Jay: You da fuckin' best, you the fucking best..

Beezy: triple d cup love, i'm the one you lean on..
Beezy: i know...that's what they all say. LMAO

Jay: Tell me that nigga doesn't sound like Wayne when he says "best I ever haaaaad, best I ever haaaad"
Jay: That nigga sounds possessed by the Ghost of Weezy's Past

Beezy: a little
Beezy: just a bit higher pitched

Jay: Unstoppable?

Beezy: i love how the song starts

Jay: Yes.. what she said
Jay: la la la la

Beezy: "Ain't on the fence about it, i'm not Mr. Feeny."

Jay: Santo Gold is a got damn loon, but I love her ass..

Beezy: i know you hate MIA, but that's her twin

Jay: LIES
Jay: Eh eh eh eh, you don't lie

Beezy: I see a "Best of Both Worlds" soon with Drake and Wayne

Jay: I run Lousiana, but I've never pulled a hammy.. YES!
Jay: Nah, Drake and Trey would do one first.. them niggas are damn near dating

Beezy: lmao
Beezy: Uptown
Beezy: sounds so Southern, but he pulls it off

Jay: The hook always fucks with me.. what is that oooooooohhhhhh part from? Isn't that a Billy Joel song? "Uptown Girl"?
Jau: Oh shit, I solved my own mystery.. go me!

Beezy: you're a genius!
Beezy: SMCH

Jay: You forgot the nigga.. it's "You're a genius, nigga!"

Beezy: excusez-moi...lmao

Jay: This song would be huge down south...

Beezy: it really would

Jay: Two dope ass rappers, and one that used to be good...

Beezy: i don't live in Memphis, but the shit would be gold there
Beezy: us Nashville people would love it too.

Jay: Bun used to be nasty.. now his Alzhimer's is settled in and he just repeats himself.. "It's the king of the south (SOUF!), I'm the king of the trill (TRILL!)"

Beezy: Pimp C used to do that too
Beezy: I swear Pimp C used the phrase "Everytime we hit the parking lot we turn heads" in about 3 different songs.

Jay: Nigga is his own echo
Jay: Bun sounds good on here though

Beezy: this is Bun's element so it fits

Jay: OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH
Jay: I own the swagger supermarket, and you? You're just a bag boy
Jay: He told you!

Beezy: but would we expect anything less from Weezy?

Jay: This isn't shower head music though

Beezy: can't get crunk in the shower
Beezy: you'll really bust your head then

Jay: Might break a tile
Jay: Sooner Than Later?

Bre'ana: yep

usni66aaf: This shit is dope

Beezy: immensely

Jay: For the record, we're nearing the end of the tape and all 3 of your readers have yet to know which song is your favorite..
Jay: I'd suggest you'd post a poll on your blog, but you'd only have 3 responses........ meanwhile the tape has like 17 songs.. I mean, I know I suck at math but...
Jay: One and half shower heads for this junt..

Beezy: Fool, you didn't listen when i said "Little Bit" was my shit
Beezy: sheesh

Jay: I did.. "my shit" and "my favorite song on this mixtape" are two entirely different statements
Jay: But you know what? You don't need no one else..
Jay: This shit goes hard in the shower.. I leave my mouth open a little too long and get a mouth full of hard water when I hit the high notes, but I won't be deterred..

Beezy: I'mma need for you to fix that

Jay: Jerry Jones was singing this shit to TO...

Beezy: sooner than later...

Jay: Zing!

Beezy: booyah!

Jay: Omarion's last album was dope..
Jay: But I can't take that nigga seriously..
Jay: He's like a B-rate everything..
Jay: He can sing, but a grip of singers sing better.. he can dance, but a grip of singers dance better.. my nigga O can't catch a break..
Jay: He can't even out gay his girlfriend Bow Wow.. always the brides maid, never the bride

Beezy: lmao
Beezy: get it right...he's the King of Dance

Jay: Props on Drake for digging in the archives for Timbaland instrumentals
Jay: ARE YOU READY
Jay: This nigga can't even out sing a rapper on a fucking interlude
Jay: I mean, damn.. poor O

Beezy: i think you're the only one who feels sorry for O
Beezy: The Calm

Jay: I've listened to this shit about 2 times too

Beezy: same here
Beezy: people love it, but it's just alright to me
Beezy: it should've been at the beginning of the mixtape

Jay: This beat just doesn't really do shit for me..
Jay: I've been to the mountain tops..
Jay: If this beat was a woman, it'd be Dakota Fanning

Beezy: unassuming and shit

Jay: Shit just comes off as unfinished
Jay: It's just there........ kinda like Marlon Jackson

Beezy: hahahaha
Beezy: Outro

Jay: That piano is ill
Jay: Is that sampled from something?

Beezy: i don't know

Jay: He should've rapped or sang over that shit

Beezy: nah it's good as is
Beezy: It faintly reminds me of a song from Vivian Green's debut album.

Jay: That shit sounds incredible
Jay: Brand New

Beezy: quit actin Brand New

Jay: I don't like this shit ever..
Jay: This shit doesn't go hard in hard water
Jay: 0 showerheads up
Jay: And who the hell started that "AYE AYE AYE" shit in rap music? I wanna slap the skeleton out of the motherfucker that did that shit..

Beezy: it's a crime
Beezy: find whoever did it

Jay: AYE

Beezy: ugh

Jay: Can we just skip to Congratulations?

Beezy: yeah

Jay: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH
Jay: People are swearing this song is the best song Drake's ever done.. I beg to differ
Jay: It's aiight, but.... nah.. you can't lose with the Coldplay sample..
Jay: Charge it to the game, I bill myself

Beezy: i'm convinced Chris Martin is really a hip hop artist

Jay: Chris Martin is more hip hop than most rappers
Jay: He sounds ALOT like Wayne on here

Beezy: he does on this one

Jay: My deal's like Weezy's first week, 1 point somethin'

Beezy: lmao
Beezy: no showerheads on this one?

Jay: Nah, that ain't shower music

i might have to actually give it a proper listen after this...
sorry if i'm a little weary on anyone new in the game...most folks are let downs.

A Genius said...

The funny thing is The Calm and Best I Ever Had and Nov. 18th are my favorite songs on here. Say What's Real and Let's Call it Off are my shit as well...

Overall, I been fucking with Drake since Comeback Season first dropped, but I can't listen to him that much. He really doesn't have much substance and he's not ignorant enough to just rock out to. He's just a nigga who can rap and sing. He does both well...but nothing makes me say "Damn..." either way.

This tape is Charmin soft. I need a minimum of 12 niggas to die per tape. I can't rock with it too tough. It's for girls. I mean, I listen to what I listen to all the time...but enh. It's just a cool tape to me. Nothing to write home about.

LOL...can I say "shots fired" for the 3 readers statement?

You all did your thing once again...but I disagree with you both disliking "Brand New"...it's not a classic, but it's likable.

*cues Trey Songz* "Yeeeeuupppp!!"
