Album review(Happy Hour by Nerd Ferguson)

Hey folks Lets jump into the second LP from young Mr Nerd Ferguson called Happy hour. Right off the bat I want to say overall this albums production value was fantastic which was a welcome surprise. Alot of self put out albums sound like they were recorded on a handheld tape deck with poorly constructed beats so this offering was amazing in that regards. As far as the bars they held up as well. The reoccurring theme was coming into his own as a rapper and the understanding of his place in hip hop world. Some stand out tracks to me was "Hyundai Elantra music" between the beat and the everyman flow will be in rotation for most of this summer. "girl song" which addressed the very real situation of crushing on someone on your daily commute on the subway but not voicing your desire. "supercrazyUltra" uses a Chubb Rock sample that works super well with the rapid fire bars to give that throw back party feel. I also think The Kings of Leon sample on "It,s Hot" was fantastic as I hate Kings of leon yet was feeling the songs use of the riff. The only criticism is that some of the songs seem all over the place in regards to message but that is a small issue on a superb offering.
