Deconstructing Matious - Music Banter

Yelawolf
He annunciates every ****ing syllable so much. That's just a little personal pet peeve tho lol.

A lot of his music seems to be car focused, or at least labeled as such-pop the trunk, daddy's lambo, trunk muzic, box chevy. So far he has shown a knack for making gucci-inspired trunk related white trash music, but not much else.

Having Drama (fantasy factory) produce seemed like the perfect move to cement his skater-boi fanbase.Speaking of which, producing can't be too hard these days if that ****er can do it..

Im going to throw the race card into the mix and say if this guy was black he would go completely unnoticed. The monolithic lex luger/gucci bass heavy sound is something hundreds of new artists use every month.

Honestly though, I don't out right hate this guy and would say he has promise if he wasn't already 30-something years old..
With the help of slim shady he will make music everybody except me will love.

I think the car theme was because the name of the album was Trunk Muzik. Did you stop to think about that? he has some other tracks that aren't car related. I'm pretty sure his next album isn't going to have mostly car related tracks it's not just something he does.

I disagree with you on the whole race card thing as well. You didn't even touch on his rapping speed but I know that you aren't really impressed with that so I guess you didn't mention it. I think that is also part of the reason that he's getting the attention that he is atm. It was a great idea to include him in WorldWide Choppers track.

lol no comment on the ageist remarks.

Okay, I understand that. I just feel that there are more solid tracks on the first album and he could have made plenty more singles from that album that would get constant radio play.

I like Drake and will listen to him from time to time but I know that he sounds similar to Wayne. The major difference is that Drake has the whole sing songy thing going for similar to Kid Cudi where he can sing and his rapping "skills" are so so.
