DAMIZZA PRESENTS

WHERE I WANNA BE



1.INTRO



2.WHERE I WANNA BE-the instant classic first single for the album, this track blew up the year it came out, straight summer tyme anthem. The fun bouncy energetic beat by KAY GEE & DAMIZZA is one of the best over all produced tracks to hit the rap game. And SHADE SHEIST opens things up nicely with a great verse, his distinct voice and flow fit the beat perfectly. Also u know it's hit when NATE DOGG spit, and it seems every song he does a hook for it blows up, and he also drops a nice verse. KURUPT ends things nicely with a final verse from the kingpin. 5/5



3.BLING DIAMANTE [INTERLUDE]



4.IS IT ME- the first thing we hear on this track is a nice smooth from beat Damizza and HOWIE HARSH, nice to chill 2. then we hear singer DAMON SHARPE dropping the hook, it's ok. But then KRAYZIE BONE drops a nice verse about these gold diggers out here. Next Sharpe drops a verse that to me is good, but not the greatest mind blowing singer out. Don't get me wrong dude can sing, definitely better then me, but he wouldn't be my first choice. Over all a solid track thow.3.5/5



5.IF YOU WERE MINE-Damizza drops another smooth beat for our listing pleasure, it's real addicting, people will definitely be bobbing their heads. Shade drops some more smooth vocals over this nice track, a nice track for the ladies. Also TATUM TOTS vocals glide over this beat with ease.4/5



6.HAVE A NICE DAY-Damizza opens things up with a short lil verse, nothing special. Then we hear CAZ all over the track with a high energized hook and nice verse. Then Shade appears again with a nice ass verse, the thing is each verse is to short leaving the song to come in at 2:10. also the beat from Damizza isn't up to par with the others, it's ok I guess but I can't really get into it.3/5



7.LIFE AIN'T A GAME-Damizza drops a nice beat to make up for the last, in fact I'am feeling the beat more then JA RULE. Not to say he doesn't hold it down though, in fact I like his verses. The way he spits to fit the beat is nice, and the hook is cool. A lot of people don't like Ja but any one who smashes EMINEM, is cool with Fatal Hussien or Hussien Fatal {depending on how u want to say it}, Tha Row, and Rap-A-Lot is all right with me. Over all good track, and addition to the album.4/5



8.LET ME DO MY THANG-Sharpe makes up for his last track with this one, I love how he kicks it on this track, in fact this could have been a single. The hook is great, and the way he lays down the verses fit the beat nicely. I like the story of the stalking ass girl friend breathing down his neck, I could see a nice video for this. And the beat by GREG LAWSON, and Damizza is way cool. I don't know why I like this song so much but I do.4/5



9.USED TO-finally one of the songs I was waiting for, TQ is in the house. The story in this song is great, the homie that u rolled with that blew and forgot everything, everyone, and forgot where he came from. U know the type, act like they are to good for everything. This is definitely one of my favorite tracks off of the album. Damizza drops a nice summer tyme feeling beat for this track.4.5/5



10.LORD WHAT HAVE I DONE-Krayzie Bone and Shade Sheist return along side LAYZIE BONE on this nice track. the stories in this song are tight, each has their own problems on this song and each comes off tight. And the beat from Damizza is real tight. And the hook is something most people will recognize.4/5



11.GET UR HEAD OUT UR ASS PLAYBOY-JERMAINE DUPRI drops his usual flashy style type of beat on this one, it's nice though. Shade rips the beat to pieces on this track with ease. Each verse gives proof of Shade's ability to be a major player in the game. Also why is JD doing his P.Diddy thing on this track.4/5



12.BOUNCE-TQ returns to drop a hook for Shade on this classic. The chorus is hella smooth, definitely off the hook. Shade drops some nice verses over this classic track, each verse is smooth. And to my surprise the man behind the boards on this bumpin track is none other then WARREN G. he definitely shows why he should be considered one of the games top producers.5/5



Over all this is a really good album that I recommend for everybody that wants some great music to ride to.

"Listen..... I just got this album....and have never heard of Shade Sheist. BUT IT IS FAT!!! It is a cross between Nate Dogg and Too Short. Truthfully, 2/3 of the album is good enough to bump anywhere. The other 1/3....probably should have been left off the album. Anyway....if you like Too Short/ Nate Dogg style....this one is a must. Oh ya....and "WHERE I WANNA BE" really is........worth the price of the whole CD!!!!!"
