On first pass, this is HARD. Also, it doesn't sound like everything else out there. It's consistent and not just a collection of random tracks. Get it.  8)

Trunk Muzik sounded much better on first listen. The features are the worst part, except Rittz, Kid Rock and Killer Mike.

1. Radioactive Introduction - 4.5/5. This beat is so dope. Yela is flowing his ass off. This is basically a picture perfect intro. Beat knocks too.
2. Get Away - 4.25/5. Wow this beat is knocking from the start. Yela slays this too. Shawty Fatt is ok. Good to hear Mystikal lol.
3. Let's Roll - 4/5. This is a good collab. I'd imagine Kid Rock & Yelawolf to make a good record together and they did here.
4. Hard White - 5/5. This is too dope! Ill as fuck. This could be the return of Lil Jon! Yela a genius for working with him. This beat KNOCKS and fits Yela PERFECTLY.

5. Growin' up in the Gutter - 3.75/5. This beat is pretty crazy too. Truck knockin' music for real. The hook is odd but the story is dope. Happy to see Rittz on here.
6. Throw It Up - 3.75/5. This beat is dope! The hook is alright but Yela kills this. He sounds great over the beat. Eminem is pretty good too, but Yela is better on this.
7. Good Girl - 3.5/5. This beat has a west coast knock to it. Poo Bear is an underrated hook singer too. I ain't feelin' the track itself though. The beat/hook make it alright.
8.  Made in the U.S.A. - 3.5/5. This sounds back on track. The flow is nice. Woah, I can't mess with the hook though; sounds too poppy.

9. Animal - 3.75/5. Another poppy hook on a dope beat. Fefe Dobson, random as hell lol. And Yelawolf is all good to me on this; just the weird hook messes it up slightly.
10. Hardest Love Song in the World - 2.75/5. Similar to "Good Girl" but the hook/beat aren't as good. Not feeling it.
11. Write Your Name - 3/5. Again, what's with the white girl poppy hook? The JUSTICE LEAGUE beat is smooth. Once again, Yela sounds good but the hook is too ehh.
12. Everything I Love the Most - 3.25/5. The beat is decent, Yela always sounds good to me lol. This hook is ok, better than most. An alright cut. Nothing special.

13. Radio - 3/5. Yela trying to get his singing on but I ain't feelin it; the message itself is true though. But still, this isn't for me although it's not overly wack (the raps save it).
14. Slumerican Shitizen - 4.5/5. Rebel music right here. Beat has a rock bang to it, hook is ok (at least it ain't poppy lol). Yela is perfect for this & Mike
15. The Last Song - 4/5. This is cool, different vibe for Yela but it works. More mellow and very personal. It's a real good closer.

Overall this is a pretty good album, the first four tracks are the blueprint of what an entire Yelawolf album should sound like and had me expecting better things from this. Even tracks like "Animal" and "Made in the U.S.A" are dope as fuck minus the hooks. To be fair, the beats all over this album are ill and Yelawolf does his thing on every single track but some of the hooks just really hold those songs back from being GREAT.

It's still a pretty good release and you can tell Yela put way more time into this and took it more seriously than he took "Trunk Muzik" album. This has one sound, a very cohesive project.

Not sure how I feel about it after one listen, I found the first half incredible and the second half kinda weird, didn't like the R&B joints (I rarely do though) and the production has some country/rock vibes towards the end which I didn't dislike just probably need to give them a few more spins. Defo a good album though, best debut I've heard in a while,looking forward to bumpin this all week.

And for those saying they've never heard Yela, get Trunk muzic 0-60, a classic imo.

DO  NOT ASK FOR LINKS, how hard can it be?

I haven't listened to any of his songs nor mixtapes, so this will be the first impression of him to me.

Thanks for contributing to the album discussion then, since you haven´t heard any song from the album nor Yela  ::)

??? What the? Where did that come from?
Oh, I don't see you contributing to the album discussion..

Same here. I only know the music with Slaughterhouse.

Listened to the whole thing today... it's suprisingly nice! Some songs remind me of the old BTNH.

same, the first tracks are great, the album fall off right when gangsta boo stops rapping, eminem starts, then a bunch of songs with corny hooks. the song with killer mike was good. overall im disappointed but will bump the first half a few more times.

I`m Wayne Brady bitch!

Excellent album. Gotta give it a few more spins before I can give my final thoughts. But a very, very good debut album!

Nobody loves the shit after "Throw It Up"? Finally starts making dope rap songs & it isn't "Southern" enough, therefore we're calling it "poppy".

With that being said, this is one of my favorite albums this year. 8)
