Dudes didn't have to be this lyrically masterful.
Not sure this needed to be 90+ minutes long. Especially since this guy rapped about being a dad of 4 kids for a quarter of the songs. I know more about this guys life than most of my coworkers. Lyrically he has skills and combines humor within the raps that make it entertaining at times. Several of the songs also offer some unique perspective that you don’t hear much in rap. Overall it was decent for as corny as some of it was. 6.3/10
Rating: 6/10
The 2 parts are really different. I likes the first part, but was a bit disappointed hearing the second, expecting more of the same
What an insane, fascinating album; I have so many thoughts. First, spose music that is not called I’m awesome is something I did not know existed. Second, this is one of the corniest rap albums I’ve ever listened to rivaling only tom Macdonald and hopsin. Third, it’s the most shallow and obvious “I’m gonna speak my mind on everything going on in the world” that’s more of a window into Ryan’s psyche than anything Rather than just recount all of the dumb stuff he talks about I’m gonna try to describe spose based on this album: He’s a recently divorced father of four who really likes tennis and smoking weed. He apparently had a rough childhood (that I thought sonically sounded straight out of illmatic right before he name dropped nas) and struggles with mental health and being a father and seeing hot women on instagram. Rather than actually engage in politics he takes the teenage redditor position of “everyone’s evil and bad” Finally, he likes to think he respects women with a song dedicated to how cool they are then undermines that with literally every single bar on the Instagram model song. Normally, cringe like this would’ve made me turn it off right away but the beats and flow were just good enough and the lyrics just funny and ridiculous enough that it kept me going through 96!! Minutes. Basically
Atrocious lyrics, like super bad
I can’t deny this LP has heart, but man is it dumb as fuck. Would’ve loved to see the audio tech’s face on some of the vocal takes here, and can’t imagine how much this guy spent on studio time to make nearly 100 minutes of Limp Bizkit revival meets AJR.
This looks like it's gonna be dumb. Oh and it goes for an hour and a half lol. Not fuckin likely. I'll listen to disc 1. Oh Christ, really? This is fucking lame. It raps, it rocks, it sucks. Why would you waste your album choice on this troll attempt? 1/5.
