yup not sure why theres so many haters out there...sayin he cant rap. He can definitely flow...lyrics aint nothin special, theree was a couple tracks (I think Homies, Fuck This Industry)where he showed a little intellect....solid album. No bullshit skits, nothing but straight bangers front to back....
i have to say that i was expecting something better from this one...
too many features...(like French montana on the coke boys mixtape)
im still waiting for a bricksquad album with wacka, gucci and oj da juiceman album featuring french montana, cam'ron over some harry fraud, lex luger or shawty redds beats

I haven't posted here in a while, partly because there hasn't been anything to post about... But anyway, in the last few months I've heard Wacka on way too many other people's songs that sounded absolutely terrible, so I expected the album to be on some wack R&B or trying-to-sound-like-everyone-else shit, especially after hearing Gucci's album, which was complete trash.
Yet he apparently decided to stick to what works for him and put out an album that's full of the type of tracks that are the reason people listen to Wacka Flocka, and that's something I can only applaud. Of course, because it has too many tracks about gang banging (studio or not) and too few tracks about being in love with strippers, it will probably flop, so the next album will certainly be on some Lady Gaga type of bullshit, but I am more than happy with this one, even with all the tracks that have been on the mixtape circuit for months now.
What I don't understand with people hating Wacka is what exactly do those people want. The main reason hip-hop is where it right now is that everyone sounds like everyone else and as a result everyone sucks because there is no originality. So here you have someone who came original (people may not like the way he raps but he the fact is that he sounds like nobody else, at a time when I have very hard time figuring out who exactly I am listening to if I am not given the track and artists names), who has the tightest beats, and who "kept it real" in his first album. Certainly, he's no Shakespeare lyrically, but what more can you ask for in a time when most people suck all across the board, and those with the good lyrics one simply can't listen to most of the time because they lack everything else. Plus the music he makes has never been intended to be deeply lyrical, neither has he ever claimed to be the greatest rapper alive or anything like that...
