I done fucked around and sang a hook like Anita Baker
Neon Icon, 57 city tourin'
I'm first class to Spain, you still buying Ralph Lauren (Polo!)
Might rock huaraches in a photo, Porsche big body
My shirt say Versace, TV screen in my left pocket
I'm from California, but I done moved to Texas
My bad, I'm dyslexic in a four-door mango Lexus
At the titty bar, I ain't afraid to tip em
Me and Sergio throwing pesos at some strippers
Still rocking Js, still fuck minimum wage
I just left neon rave, tip-toeing through my batcave, cause I'm...
Oh boy, here we go...this is going to be fun...FUN...yah for fun!...like summer...like waterslides...like corona's and lemon...like blunts and bbq's...like frisbees...like bikinis...riff raff is fun...neon is fun...that neon icon album cover is funny...
...remember when you were a kid and you had fun...remember looking up at a girls dress in grade 1, and seeing her cherry underwear...that was fun...
Yeah mysterious, (mysterious), my mermaids are bi-curious
She done got intoxicated, girlfriend is furious
Just in case, I pack the paper in the briefcase
Rain water, roof taste, Pistol Pete
White Louis suitcase, with the singin' hook like Frankie Lymon
Shout to the Baywatch, David Hasselhoff hair
Or the Allen Iverson braids, zig zags on designer
Softened beautiful face with the puzzle piece lineup
Edge up, I done got fed up
Ate the pork chop sandwich with the tartar sauce
In the packet that I found in my purple Prada pocket protector
I could say anything about luck, you need to shut the, fuck up
Like an addict threw up, I done poured a four in a codeine
Sonic the Hedgehog club verses Knuckles in my mailbox cup
I done, I done poured a four in a codeine
Sonic the Hedgehog club verses Knuckles in my mailbox cup
...more fun!...mermaids that are bi-curious...finding a packet of tartar sauce in his purple pocket protector...haaha...sonic the hedgehog was a fun sega game...riff raff is a character like snoop dogg, like most of the rappers that you like...they're not really real...it's a fun game of cat and mouse...i like fun games!...like i sunk your battle ship...he's got paul wall on this album too...paul wall is fun...his grillz are fun...

There is no cleverness here. You can't help but wonder that he does take himself seriously to some level. I don't understand how he got a pass really.

It's official: Hip-Hop is over.

BIRTH OF AN ICON
mixtape/compilation/fuck if i know what to call albums anymore
by william brown
..fuck where do i even start with this guy...i've gone through so many emotions with this guy...first noticed him hanging out with vnasty of all people...then i saw his mtv riff raff tattoo...youtub'd his appearance on mtv's "g's to gents" show...then i started watching his videos like orion's belt...reading some interesting interviews...my initial reactions was one of anger...then i thought he was a joke...i wondered if he was for real?...then anger again...i got bored and then ignored him...but then it all started to come into focus for me...and suddenly, i got him...he wasn't a comedian making fun of hip hop (ali g)...instead what he had was a sense of humour...he was making jokes, but wasn't a joke...i also realized something else, he was in a creative bubble world...a creative zone...i've been in that creative bubble world myself...it's a world where you're allowed to be yourself...it's a world where you're allowed to get your freak on...your 1969 on...be a fucking eccentric weirdo...wear what you want...say and act however you want...

...we've seen it from jimi hendrix to andre 3000...riff raff is just being his pure creative self. Anyway, with that solved i was able to breathe and listen to his music...and yes...enjoy his music...birth of an icon then...his mixtape/compilation/album...the first of 11 that he signed up for on diplo's mad decent label...11 albums?...seriously?...i mean, what is nas up to now...10?...kind of funny...and the funnier thing is how i actually like this album...i got sucked in by the beautifully produced track "bird on a wire" by harry fraud...just lovely...just let this sweetheart wash over you...now there's some shit on here that's a little too neon weird, even for me...but man, there's some joints on this...jose canseco, larry bird, icu, marc jacobs, squirt ..i also dig his freestyle type lyrics...they bring a sense of freshness and they also allow you deeper access into his consciousness...
they like riff raff just acting black/ he just wylin/ oh i get it you're just mad cause i'm stylin
- jose canseco
adversaries call me on my blackberry/ now i'm in the laundry mat darryl strawberry/on my cellphone/ now i'm on my iphone/ she thought it was the cat phone/ now i'm on my bat phone/ hanging things down like a vampire/ sapphires dancing on my hand like a campfire/ camp counsellor living in the lap of lux/ double cheese deluxe/ in the penguin tux
- cuz my gear
might pull up may 5th/ in the candy gold fish/ bipolar paint seats look like tiger paws/ eating lobster/ shark screens while i'm watching jaws/ rap game julio franco/ chuck norris texas ranger/ ice on my fingers look like i slap boxed a penguin
- deion sandals
i don't have a fever but my flows are sick/ in my parking spot/ i'm in the parking lot
in public/ my bank account/ accumulates money quick/ my bank accountant speaks arabic/ nothing to play/ your number already been erased/ nothing to say/ i'm sitting sideways at a chinese buffet
- terror wrist
tasers/ house full of lasers/ mouth full of glaciers/ froze the outskirts of asia/ medication/ deep thoughts meditation/ pay me for a favour/ rap game joe frazier
- world star
i like this album...it's fun, it's entertaining...riff raff's not wack or a joke...let your preconceived notions go and you'll enjoy the riff raff theme park ride!...at the very least he's got nice eyes!!!
3.5 out of 5 blips on the radar
