Guess Who's Back!!
What's up ladies and gentlemen, I'm back from a long hiatus (moving from one coast to the other is a motherfu....). Anyways, I'm glad to be relocated in Atlanta, GA; the epicenter for urban pop-culture. Upon arriving to the "dirty-dirty" I was welcomed with releases from some of pop-music's biggest "artists".
Usher released his Here I Stand album, which clearly showed us where he stands, in a state of disillusionment. Driving down Peachtree my eyes gazed upon an Usher billboard a little past Lenox Mall that states "I was once a hustler and a player, until I met you". Uhm, no, Ursher, we never thought you were a hustler nor a player. In fact, I always thought of you as a candy ass pop-"artist" who was manufactured by the music industry from a ripe young age to be the now aging soon-to-be irrelevant pop-"artist" you are today. Now all this criticism is not unfounded, I listened to the "album". Has this fool lost his mind? Who the hell does he think he is? First of all he starts the album with a jazzy intro reminiscent of 3 Stacks Love Hater from the legendary Love Below. Usher should know his lane by now, he's sold millions of albums over the past decade by making good pop-music, he really doesn't have enough depth to try to venture into other genres. The rest of the album plays as a palette of who's who in pop music with songs written and produced by some of music's biggest names, and they all fail.
Lil Weezy also drops an album next tuesday that's already leaked all over the internet, and the general opinion of this proclaimed-to-be classic hip-hop album... FAILURE. Please, if I wanted to hear a drug addict stumble over some beats I would of bought Old Dirty Bastard's first album again. For the last couple years people have been boasting and bragging about this clown claiming he is one of he greatest rappers ever. In response to this hype Lil Wayne Carter drops one of the most incohesive albums in recent rap history. What the hell is this guy rapping about?! Am I missing something? Ok, I knew Hova would rip Wayne on 16 bars, but who knew F-A-B-O-L-O-U-S would murk Lil Weezyana. This album is terrible, Lil Wayne, please go into rehab, or choose another career, because rapping is certainly not for you sir. Also, not to boast and brag, but you heard it here first from myself that this album would be wack months ago, DON'T BELEIVE THE HYPE young'ns.
(Sigh), Well there you have it music fans, some of pop-music's biggest stars have released some cottton-candy ass albums free of any substance, musicality, soul, heart and nuts. Damn, I guess I'll just go back and listen to some Pac or D'Angelo, pssshhh...
Peace, love and happiness,
Pops aka Big-Papi
