#1192 Nocando - Jimmy the Burnout

Maybe this is what Nocando was going for with the mostly-unsuccessful Tits and Explosions - here's some rap that's more personal and less superficial (less fun) than his debut. The production's less bonkers, with more heft (less fun), the lyrics more meaningful if a little less playful rhythmically and rhymewise, and yes, less fun.

Notice a theme? It's a real hip hop album, full of cleverness and big moments, especially near the end on Zero Hour / Hellfyre Club Anthem, but I still miss that freedom of a rapper with nothing to lose 3/5
