Uncle Kracker
A CD Review |
|
 |
So you liked Uncle Kracker because he does the song
“Follow Me,” which if you listen to the lyrics you find out
that it’s a song about cheating on your husband/fiancé with
a loser whose only quality is able to turn you on. It’s a
lovely little song, so then you bought the CD, popped it
into your CD player, and one of the first things you hear is
Kid Rock giving advice to Uncle Kracker, namely “make sure
you pinch it at the top before you roll it down.” Okay,
that’s a little stunner, so you keep listening and get
treated to some swearing (guess you should have paid a
little more attention to the “Parental Advisory” label), and
find out that pretty much, Uncle Kracker is a rapper who
mixes melodies into the songs, like on “Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.”
Don’t get me wrong, I like this CD, and give it a 75% on the
Entertainment Ave! listenability scale, but it always cracks
me up a little bit when a singer or band put one or two
radio-friendly tunes on a CD (Sugar Ray did that at the
beginning of their boom days too), but when you pop that CD
into the player, things are totally different.
That’s it for this quick review! I’m The Dude on the
Right!! L8R!!! |
