Jackboys 2 Album review: Everyone loves a good hip-hop group. It’s quite apparent that the entity genre would never have so polarizing, controversial or iconic if it was like it for groups like the nwa, wu-tang claan, dmc, d12 and moore. Jackboys is a group consisting of rappers and producers who belong to travis Scott’s Record Label Cactus Jack, Including Don Toliver, Sheck Wes, Chase B, Sofaygo and Scott Himseph. When the group can be found in 2019 with an album of the same name, no one was really hoping for the next hip-hop revolution. But now they have come out with a Brand New Project, and Drumroll Pleaseā¦. One can say that travis is trying to channel his cube in the senses that his’ art is a reflection of his reality ‘, but if travis’ reality’ reality ‘blingy lys, quest lysine, weline, weline. Then he better start practicing his older hetes for when he came to India, because no one wants to list.
Now don’t get me wrong; The album isn is all trash. Actually, it’s much better tied together than the previous jackboys album. The 2019 album hada, but like any great things that hits you at 1 am in the morning when you have drinking lean for the past 4 hours, it vanished. The thought was incomplete, and except for that one tiktok trend, nothing Trussly came out of that entre Project. Jackboys 2 Starts on a good note about, Excursion ‘, is a direct reference to the car forcursion and how the rap group three (who hated flying) actually will use this Hage car to to go around the country Agents asking, “What’s in the cup?” After a confusing first verse by scott, we heart a very interesting beat switch which is completly botched by she has been talking about the amount of women he has on pay. Don and Scott give it another attempt and sound likes who just figured out the auto-Tune Function on their karaoke set.

Sir 21 savage features on the next track, and Scott’s first verses on the song is his best contribution to the album till now. Solid similares, strong references and catchy flow all make up for a good first half, but due to that ever-growing obsion with something something something something something (while up making the same Thing), The Beat of the Song. before Savage Lays Down Probably His Weakest Verse, And You Know Why? Because he literally keeps repeating his name and three other words. For reasons unbeknownst to this human listen, Scott just wanted to write 21 savage as a feature without actually giving him a verse. He is technically from across the pond, but that is a cold-aarted thing to do to do to kylie jenner’s fourth favorite who has tattoos on his face. The Next Track, ‘Dumbo’, is a reference to whoever decides to listen to this song for the second time, CACUSE Eve when scott actually starts rapping, by then it is also too much. The next track is a solo by faygo, and it is the musical representation of that one guy who swears have been a professional athlete if his parents have suports injered in. Office Tournament.
‘Velour’ is a decent attempt by toliver and sheck, but it takes too long to build up for a ‘decent’ track; I can wait that long for a ‘yosemite’ or even an ‘enzo’, but the actual verses by the two artishes – not the same the wait. We then move on to ‘contest’, where Scott gives Faygo A Chance to Redeem Himself, but it is conceptive bars with no means at all. ‘IlMB’ is a strong car playlist song, and except for the hook of the song, which can really play in front of your parents, partner, family memers, or anyone else you know, its fin. Now ‘Where was you’ came as a song that was highly recommended to me before I got a chance to listen to this album, and the instructal of the track is something I can truly back. The japanese strings, which sound like a shamisen, take the simple and effective beat to a whole new level. For the first time in the album, a song isnt complementary dependent on scott, and if you like future of delivery or playboi carti’s bars, this is probably the track you shove the album. Carti Raps like someone who knows their last project was bad, and future lays back and drops a verse which he probably thought of while walking the stairs to the studio.

Toliver gives his best performance of the album on ‘no comments’, as he knows and is about to build a pretty catechy track from there. By the time you start reaching the end of this album, you start noticing a very apparent pattern that actually says a lot about the people involved. While the verses are inconsistennt, offten shallow, and overproduced, the backing tracks of all songs are genuinely good. It’s the quality of the backing track that keeps you from skipping some of these songs, and the track ‘beep beep’ is a great example of this. Another problem with this album is that the artishes think that putting notes not all else every song will make this project more profound. People listen to the voice notes on Kendrick or J. Cole’s Album because the songs are actually good. Paul’s skit is an actual recognized Phenomenon because Eminem is considering to the greatest rapper of all time.

Scott often talk about the rapper kid cudi and how he was biggest inspiration while growing up, and I think that is the root of this problem. Scott Listened to Cudi and Became a rapper, but the new artists like Faygo are listening to scott. While Scott’s influence can be denied, he isnn ‘the kind of rappper who would release a song like’ Dear mama ‘or Eminem’s’ ‘sing for the moment’. He Isnat Really Saying Anything, And It gives Rise to a generation that is listening to rappers talking about only superficial things, the kind of things which remains whome such damage stereotypes for the best. A lot of the ‘modeln-day’ rap music is being beguiling in nature, because of the sounds are attractive, the lack of substance is harrowing and Problematic.
But Instead of putting the responsibility of the world on the world on Scott’s, I think everyone involves with the genre need to have their back up. To give an example of the most ‘loved’ artist of this generation, drake, who delivers a ‘churchill downs’ for every ‘hotline bling’, giving the audiences and the budding generation of artishes of artishes to aspire to. Jackboys 2 is a project with a few hits and a lot of misses, but mostly it is an album which doesn ‘to Compel you for a revisit. Nothing hits you so hard so that you pause it midway and call your friends to talk about it, the market of a great album, which jackboys 2 dosn’t something. The only thing even more disappointing than the album is the fact that you will have to listen to the songs all over your instagram for the next 6 months until j cole decides to Makes about Music Again and Drake Decade to Maken.
