Free Music Review: "Crank Dat...(Insert name here)" (Rating: 2 out of 10- -1.0 stars)
Hit: 1 Stars
Living here in the ATL, we usually get to hear an artist's lead single months before it is released nationally. June '07, I was at work trying to pass by the time listening to the radio (one of the rare moments I do listen) when I heard "Crank Dat" and thought it was the worst song I heard in months. I hate to admit it, but that song grew on me briefly, before it wore off.
Now I'm not one of those reviewers who would go and say "Go listen to this artists and leave this Soulja Boy stuff alone..." or something along that nature. I'm sure we all can agree that anything you listen to is head and shoulders above this album. The funny thing is that "Crank Dat..." is the best song on this album, and every thing here surrounds that song, either directly or indirectly. Most of these songs are pointless and cliched in so many ways, even for a seventeen year old. I will admit though, when I was his age, I was writing songs like those, but not as bad as whats on here. When I heard "Sidekick", I thought the beat was horrible and lyrically was horrible as well. "Snap 'N' Roll" comes in a close second as the best song on here, but doesn't say much because it is still horrible sounding dance song. Other bad songs worth mentioning are "Booty Meat" (wack chorus), and "Report Card" which indirectly sounds like a knock off of one of Rich Boy's songs, where Soulja Boy says to the teacher to "Throw some D's" on his report card. Word Soulja Boy???
A guy named Arab appears on a few songs. "Yaaah!" he drops a barely okay verse (he sounds like KRS-One compared to Soulja Boy), and his solo song "Pass It To Arab". And the beats on this album done by Mr. Colli Park (dope producer by the way) aren't that good, as if he tossed Soulja Boy some throwaway beats. Similar, but slightly better beats can be heard on 5150 Ratchet.
Overall, this train wreck of an album shouldn't have seen the light of day, at least until Soulja Boy have written some better rhymes. I can't knock Soulja Boy for being his age (which is the reason why I didn't give this album a lower score than what I have now). If there were some grown men putting out stuff like this, we would have had a problem. Soulja Boy is getting to the money, selling ringtones and having this music played at the club, and I have mad respect for him for making that happen, but in reality his days in rap music are numbered....and counting even as we speak. Peace.
I will say this much though: Damn I miss the 90's...

Internet-sensation-turned-rap-phenomenon DeAndre Way, better known as Soulja Boy Tell `Em (lengthened from merely Soulja Boy due to copyright issues), had his song "Crank That" dominating the Billboard Hot 100 for months, and when I finally heard it, I was like, "It is entirely too easy to get a #1 single these days." But what if I told you that that's actually the best song from his album?
The main problem with this album is that most of the songs are wack enough as it is, but the choruses are very uninteresting AND repetitive, like "Snap and Roll", "She Thirsty" and "Donk". But the repetitive factor goes for Mr. Collipark (who produces most of the album's tracks) as well; I know I said a while back that he needed to retire the "Wait" beat, but now his beats have gotten so Casio-inspired that even Swizz Beatz would call him out (and for the record, I'm not a big fan of snap music either, but that's not why the album is bad).
When the hooks AREN'T redundant, things aren't much better, as shown by the aforementioned "Crank That (Soulja Boy)" (by the way, how tired is it to name a dance after yourself?) and especially "Report Card", where after he gets a report card full of F's, he tells his teacher to "throw some D's on that bitch!" Ooh; clever (and since when is a D a good grade?). Anyway, when I heard the ode to his phone, "Sidekick", I looked at the liner notes and said, "It took three people to write THIS?" And "Yahhh" is just plain retarded.
Soulja Boy also spends a great deal of time bragging about his bapes (for those that don't know, it's a short way of referring to Bathing Apes, an urban clothing line operating out of Tokyo) as well as promoting his partner-in-rhyme Arab(???), who isn't too exciting himself. The obligatory song for the ladies, "Soulja Girl", isn't very hot either, but even worse is the necessary shake-that-ass song, "Booty Meat". "Shake dat booty meat"??? Does no one understand how disgusting that sounds?
Since Soulja Boy is only seventeen, that's probably why the profanity is edited for the kiddies (but get real; who ELSE would buy this?). It's not that I was expecting much from him, but this is the first time in years that I have had to award an album a flat-out single star. Souljaboytellem.com is not worth buying, borrowing, downloading, or even worth audio samples.

I could make an album like this in a week. All he does is repeat one tiny phrase in every song. He never uses a word with more than two syllables in his rhymes and they just sound rediculous. This album was made for little teenage girls.Free Music Review: Stop! Think About This, Man... You Don't Want to Buy this CD... You Couldn't Possibly Hate Yourself THAT Much, Right?

Absolutely brainless music. Soulja Boy seems to think that the stupider he sounds, the less thought he puts into his lyrics, and the more he shouts incomprehensibly over horribly annoying beats, the more people will buy his album. Well, sadly for Soulja Boy, even those silly people who found his single catchy won't be buying this album.
With lyrics like this:
"Get out my face, ho!
Get out my face, ho!
Get out my face, ho!
Get out my face, ho!
Get out my face, ho!
Get out my face, ho!
Get out my face, ho!
Get out my face (Yahhh!)
Dawg, get out my face, Im startin to get mad
Walkin up
Soulja Boy, Can I have your autograph?
B****, Yahhh, B****!
Leave me alone, let me get some peace
I'm sittin at the house and a n**** can't sleep"
...who would?
Buying a K. Fed album is more acceptable than even considering buying this trash, and that is really, really saying something. If you just need someone to laugh at, check out his laughably idiotic--and not to mention racist--video "Yahhh Trick Yahhh" on MTV. But don't dare buy this album,because you will be made fun of by those who see you on line with this horrible disc. You'll be laughed at by the cashier. You know that guy who checks your receipt and bag on the way out? He'll laugh too. So will you, once you pop this disc in.
Avoid at all costs. This album will cause drastic loss of brain cells.
