Finally listening to the new MC Chris. Straight off the bat (and as usual) it starts with a skit.. But in this one, MC is a ghost, trying to talk to a lonely robot, who can't see him. Essentially MC is like "Hey guys you stopped listening to me, but I'm still here"... That's what I get from it anyway. Strike one.
The song following is ok. Beat is awesome and MC flows like MC... Though, it's a song about giving up weed and booze and whatnot so we're starting off a little preachy, but if you like MC you're going to love the sound of this.. Cuz dude hasn't changed his flow in like 4 albums.
Song two, The Gorillaz need their beat back. MC Flows like a beast as usual. BTW, the cardboard and insert of this CD smells delicious, if you're into that type of thing.
Song three is about Luigi in the haunted house searching for Mario so... You just can't knock that shit. It's no Fette's Vette though.
Have I mentioned that MC even says that his rap career was basically just a joke, and something he never actually wanted to do, but it just happened to make him some cash while he was trying to produce his cartoon that never happened? I don't know if that's a sad story, or a "go fuck yourself MC" story.
The skits aren't holding up as well as usual due to the guy who usually plays the record exec is now a robot with a filter on his voice... Takes away from it a bit.
A song about Wednesday Adams... Cute I guess. Dope "thump thump clap" beat that sounds a bit like Castlevania... I'd love to hear other guys on this beat.
Next song is called 58.9... I don't know why. I also listen to this song just like other MC songs and don't really listen to the lyrics so much. One thing I'm happy about is that he included a lyric book with this cd, so I'm looking forward to poking through that one of these days (I probably won't). Oh, apparently the atomic weight of cobalt is 58.9... Yay for chemistry rap!
Track 8 is "Smell Something"... Again.. I kind of like the beat but.. This shit just isn't catching me like previous MC album/tracks have. Looking at the lyrics I suppose this is a Ghost Busters reference.
Fuck it... I'm not going to bother going song by song because it's hard to describe why every song is disappointing.
Ok.. Track 11 "I'm A Fucking Wizard"... Dope beat, fun song.
Track 12 is "Discord".. It's about My Little Pony...
That's the end of disc one... Not feelin' it.
The starting skit to disc two makes no fucking sense to me. Bad start.
Track 4 is decent... "Fireplace and Pipe"
Ok... Ya know what? Fuck it. This is a fully self serving album... "Woe is me, you stopped listening after my Reddit fuckup (I'll fill you in on this later if you're curious) I've changed, fuck you" type shit. I didn't know dude was ever on drugs in the first place, but I wish he'd get back on them because I'm not trying to hear this motherfucker preach to me or talk shit to me about being a "fair weather fan" (actual term used in his lyrics for a song called Number One Fan).
So the end of this review, 75% through the album is "Go fuck yourself MC". I was a fan, you fucked up, and this album sucks dicks.
