“It’s a little smoother, but the sound is just as raw. That’s where having a good producer can take it to where it works for the mainstream, but the subject matter is still raw and it sounds raw,” said the hustler-turned-really, really lousy rapper of his forthcoming second album, which will include contributions from the likes of Dr. Luke and Travis Barker. You know, between this and the continued flogging of the cringe-inducing Morningwood, I’m starting to wonder if the next 12-ish months won’t be the equivalent of a body-hollowing, shake-inducing, intestine-ravaging hangover, one that exists chiefly to serve as a reminder of all the bad decisions made during a particularly decadent binge. In this case, of course, said binge was really “the majors’ pathetic attempts to ride the Last Night’s Party wave”—and in this case, it’s all of us who have to suffer. (Also, I still think he’s saying “do the tampon” in the above clip.) [MTV Newsroom]
