Best Album Relased Under Shady

[Man1x]

I was listening to the album the other day, and like...Songs like "Get Away", "Animal" and "Made In The U.S.A" and are just fuckin amazing.

I think the only song I don't care about is "Good Girl", and we know he didn't even wanna do it.

Yea same here (the dick and cold cereal line makes me laugh though), that's the only one I don't enjoy. Other than that the whole album is a classic for me and the songs are amazing. It still would have been better without "The Hardest Love Song In the World", "Radio", and "Everything I Love the Most." I like those songs but I feel he could have something that fit his styles better, more of those Trunk Muzik type tracks that he did so well on. He could have even put the bonus tracks in there as substitutes and had different bonus tracks, those three songs were some of the best on the album. Also, even though I love "Write Your Name" & "Made in the USA" I feel he could have done better with a more Trunk Muzik type beat, but I love those two tracks so fucking much I'd miss hearing them if they were not on this album.

Same, Yelawolf deserved to blow up. I just hope his next album is him going back to his raw sound and maybe Radioactive will catch on before his next album. I hope it does for his sake because, even though I love Radioactive, his raw sound would have made a much better album that would have resulted in an undeniable classic imo, I feel that's the way he should have took Radioactive in the first place anyways and only have one semi-pop song like Em did in his first albums.

Good Girl would be a good song, if it wasn't for that dreadful chorus

I agree to an extent, I'm glad it wasn't a replica of Trunk Muzik though.

It was a good balance between his old, dirty style and a current mainstream appeal.

Oh definitely don't make a replica of older music, that's back tracking. What I meant is that he should have kept that sound but progressed his message and insturmentals in a different direction than what everyone else is doing and create something completely new, you know what I'm saying. I feel he should have made a leap, keep some of those rock and hard rock songs (which he did), tell a new story, and instead of the pop songs make something different sounding (I don't know how to say this clearly). I know he could have done what I'm describing though, look at his progression as an artists, he had his really chill, laid back, deep message, album in CreekWater (decent album with some good tracks). He ditched that whole sound on Pissn' in a barrel of beez (amazing mixtape), progressed his new sound on his Balls of Flames: Ballad of Ricky E. Bobby mixtape (good mixtape but not as good as the one before it), changed his sound again on Stereo (near classic and I thought it was amazing), then again on Arena Rap, and ONCE more on Trunk Muzik (the last two stated are classic to me) and then on Radioactive he lost some of the creativity he had displayed before in order to sell. He could have made something groundbreaking and amazing in my opinion but settled for Radioactive an above average, nearly classic album. He cut himself sort.

Edit: Hell, look at Slumdon, that's another different sound and it too is classic IMO. I'm hoping for something classic with Travis Barker and something groundbreaking with his next album.
