C-Bo – Til my Casket Drops
1. Ride til we die…Decent opening track featuring Mob Figgas and 151. 3.5/5
2. Deadly game…Song written by X-Raided about the whole justice/court system. Tight ass lyrics. C-Bo spits the verses with emotion. 4/5
3. Major Pain & Bossalini…Song with Spice 1. Good west coast beat. Both put down some good verses. 3.5/5
4. Money by the ton…A song about hustling and coming up. The beat really doesn’t seem to fit the song though. 3/5
5. 40 & C-Bo…Song featuring E-40. Nice some for bumpin’. 3.5/5
6. Hard labor…Slow laidback feel to the song featuring the Outlawz. 3.5/5
7. Raised in hell…A ‘fuck the world song’. Good flow by Syke and C-Bo. I’m lovin’ the chorus. 4/5
8. Can we all ball…Nice beat, but just too many guests that I don’t really want to hear. 3/5
9. Desparado outlaws…Laidback beat with a fat bassline. He spits some raw lyrics and a tight ass hook. 4.5/5
10. Real niggaz…The beat will have your head bumpin’. Straight gangsta lyrics. 3.5/5
11. Professional ballers…A gangsta beat with sort of a soft touch to it. The guest artists put it down on here also. 4/5
12. Big gangsta…Here’s a mellow beat that C-Bo flows nicely to. Again, too many guests and not enough C-Bo. 3.5/5
13. All I ever wanted…Cool ass slow beat with some slow flowing. 4/5
14. Boo yow!…Now this was a song he should’ve had put some guests artists on. I’m really not diggin’ the beat or chorus. 3/5
15. No pain no gain…Average song. Average beat. Average lyrics. 3/5
16. Til my casket drops…Easily the best song on the album. Classic west coast beat and some raw ass C-Bo lyrics. 5/5
17. 357…Very unique song where C-Bo spits the rap from a gun’s prospective. TIGHT ass lyrics combined with a bomb ass beat. Second best song on the album. 5/5
OVERALL…6.5/10
I really wish that I could give this CD a higher rating, but looking at all the tracks, a lot of them are worth skipping. Overall there are too many guest rappers and most of the beats are below par. The best songs here are the solo C-Bo songs. The album has it’s good points, but just too many mediocre tracks.
