RANKINGS GRADE CHART
5 BUZZWORTHY: Keep an eye on this group/artist.
4 GOOD: You got my attention, even though the song is not perfect
3 FAIR: Average piece of work
2 POOR: Needs a LOT OF WORK
1 UNACCEPTABLE: Should Not have gotten in the studio to waste our time
___________________________________________________________
A) HIT FACTOR/COMMERCIAL: 2 The keyboard in the beginning has a good suspense in it but the reggeaton is played out right now. They have potential in their delivery. It could be a good song but the reggeatong vibe just killed it and the singer is winning two much.
B) MUSICIANSHIP: 4 They did a good job in their delivery and they were in sync with eachother except for the the guy singing.
C) VOCALS: 4 It's a reggeaton after all so no need for awsome vocals. If you put these rap flows in a different kompa beat or dancehall beat, it will kill, it would be a HIT
D) SUBJECT MATTER/LYRICS: 3 It's average. I mean it's a dance track and the lyrics don't need to be deep. It's just about a girl being attracted to a guy. Club songs, lyrics are average in the chorus. Not bad at all in the rap verses. There are some good potential here.
SUMMARY/CLOSING ARGUMENT:
Black FanFan is a very good MC. Black Alex is just Black Alex. B-Jay chose two good artist to promote his song and I think people in Haiti will bounce to it. I feel that reggeaton is out of style but it's still big in Hait so I think B-Jay will be fine with this one but it wont be huge. I would recomend him to go dancehall and hip hop rather the this. It's an average track. It will get some plays at club but it won't bring the house down. _________________ YA RAYI'W TANDE TI GASON(RICKY) |

A) HIT FACTOR/COMMERCIAL - 1 Ah mezanmi, I highly doubt this song will get any airtime.
B) MUSICIANSHIP - Come on now, the beat is too simple, it's too common, it has no originality whatsover.
C) VOCALS - 0 - Very annoying vocals on the lead. He sounds like he's whining about something instead of making a moderate attempt at singing.
D) SUBJECT MATTER/LYRICS - 0- None whatsover
SUMMARY/CLOSING ARGUMENT: - I'm sorry I downloaded this on my laptop.
This song gets an A REFAIRE COMPLETEMENT from me. |

You said it. I will say this, the rating system does help the listener, with what to look for in the song and to judge it accordingly.
The one advice I would give to anyone attempting to rate a song is TRY not to read other comments because it MAY unconsciously bias you. _________________ Music is love in search of a word.

A) HIT FACTOR/COMMERCIAL
3 I think a video will do this song good. It's catchy.
B) MUSICIANSHIP
3 first of all this type of music doesn't require much musicianship. I give it a 3 because the beat is just average. Nothing special about it.
C) VOCALS
2 I feel that Bjay was forcing it a bit. Maybe it's the mixing, but nevertheless, if this is the finished product, it needs work. Black Alex and Black Fanfan were fine.
D) SUBJECT MATTER/LYRICS
3 I think the lyrics are great, but there is nothing in there I haven't heard before. I strongly suggest Bjay gets professional advice about his lyrics. Mika for example.
SUMMARY/CLOSING ARGUMENT:
Great song! I don't think Black Alex and Black Fanfan were used to the fullest in this song. I didn't get the impact I was expecting. Overall, I would jam to this song anytime, but if B-jay is going for perfection, there's a lot of space for improvement. |

M'pa rayi muzik la... Se 5e tande'm la
Gen pati nan muzik la ki trè antrenan tankou pati
"Fais pas semblant..."
E depi pati sa m'antre nan muzik la
En tout et pour tout m'ba li 75% a lèz pou'm pa di 80%
