I won’t lie Druski was spitting facts in every skit. This whole project is a summertime bop. Its like a mix of highest quality 800 number pharmaceutical commercial music for white folk, or Burger King commercial bops targeted at blacks. I was listening to this at home and felt like I was driving in the sun with a nice breeze and my arm swaying out the window. Solid content, mixing what the industry likes, vs what he likes and addressing some personal things in a very mild and R&B ish manner. Its long but the songs are catchy, have allot of variety, will brighten up your mood or just season up your day with a fun feature. That being said not all of them are fun. This feels like he wanted to put this out and like it was lowkey effortless at the same time. It dances that line of accessible to all, and a genre of none. Great quality, solid pacing, dope sonics. You can get away with allot when you can sing but he shows that he can mix it up too and not sound stale after being so active for such a long time. In rotation.
