If Soulja Boy azines release from the 50/13 mixtape will be a precursor towards Promise album, and then many of his or her longtime fans may possibly finish up disappointed. Clocking inside at 15 tracks, the tape is usually a smorgasbord with lazy production, uninspired lyrics, off-beat flows, and also skippable tracks. It feels like your dog decided to produce this specific over a number of getaway downtime, since it without doubt seems like it didn big t take much commitment in order to produce, in addition to this individual might have already been improved functioned paying attention his focus upon his future album.

Soulja Boy could advantage from less-is-more strategy with his / her tracks (and releases connected with his or her mixtapes, for the matter; your dog fell this simply per week after Gold On Deck). Many with the sounds on 50/13, devoid of everything intending on, have an excess of taking place along with combinations regarding chants, yelling, in addition to backdrop disturbance plus set out to irritate as an alternative to entertain. If SB could get away from much more place for that monitor that will inhale and receive an added understated approach to his / her lyrics, he / she could allow that monitors time aurally welcoming. On leading associated with that, curiously, your seem good quality isn big t virtually while crisp the way it ought to often be for a good musician and performer of your status.

Not surprisingly, considering his background plus latest offerings, Dre doesn t raise the lyricism bar using 50/13. Moving, having Agoff, characteristics these kinds of poignant traces as, 40 thousand salary, similar to the NBA/All white-colored everything, for instance I m in the K. Later, on Fuck Around (Buck), the tape s protagonist spits reports regarding cutting leads off, shooting persons throughout their assholes, along with clinging them by way of their particular dicks.

Luckily intended for Soulja Boy, an performer is just not judged by way of one particular release, nonetheless through their full catalog. Hopefully Promise will bring a a lot more exciting album, completely at odds with the rapidly concocted subject material discovered on 50/13. If stuff go right, Soulja Boy still offers the risk to turn into a Soulja Man. Matt Wright
