Stlye kinda fat, reminiscent of a Wale: More About Nothing First Listen Impressions

Waaaaaow!

While The Game's Brake Lights had been keepin me pretty entertained, I finally got around to tearing myself away to spin the much anticipated More About Nothing from Wale. Lemme jus say: daaaag.

Always showing improvement, Wale's newest is straight heat. Engaging and fluid, his flow easily goes from a well timed tip-toe to a frantic flurry of wordplay in the span of a drum snare.

Wale - The Soup


Starting strong, The Problem, The MC and The Soup are all dope stand alone tracks on an album easily listened to in one sitting. Weaving a mundane (in comparison to standard fan-fare of mixtapes these days, or maybe I've just been bumpin to much trap rap) story line, Wale really speaks on his life and what do you know it imitates art pretty darn well.

Wale - The Number Won (More About Nothing)


Pacing the album well, The Eyes of the Tiger, The War, and The Break Up Song effectively switch the tempo up and slow it down for some relaxed real-talk joints.

Wale - The War


Rambling (in the absolute best sense of the word) on through the rest of the album, Wale talks on his (what one hopes, truthful) reality. A refreshing repose from blatantly untrue tales of extreme opulent/ghetto lifestyles, More About Nothing comes off as journalistic as well as playful.

Wale - The Guilty Pleasure No Hands


After a brief break to give the ladies some love after the banger The Black N Gold feat. Sam Sparro, Wale finishes strong with some solid singles that tie the More About Nothing experience up with tracks each lil something for almost everybody.

Wale - The Cloud



Personal and well crafted if you haven't already, I advise you immediately go get that.With GutterTrash tradition I give it a:
Wale stay hungry/10

This has been an A ton first spin review; hope you enjoyed it; and if you thought this whole time Wale was prounanced "whale" you needa wake up and stay locked on this A ton ish.
