This sounds like an absolute mess. Considering how ambivalent I was on Downtown and completely loathing White Privilege 2, might be best if I just skip this and concentrate on whatever songs land on the hot 100 from this album.

"Is there anything more white than making a rap song about going on diet?"



Didn't a tribe called quest do a diet song on their first record?

@SPR: I haven't negged but you should try writing shorter sentences. Like this one has a couple of words that are repeated and is fucking too long:



"Being the musical face of Seattle, the successes the duo acquired after their critically-acclaimed "The Heist", the millions of copies sold from their numerous Top-10 singles off the album, but only to criticize themselves and that success with it, delivering a vintage, yet mainstream boomer with "Downtown" and then frying it all in the fryer with an alarming, yet insightful eye-opener with "White Privilege II"."



But this is not a bad review!

@TheCrocodile: Thanks man for the feedback! I'll make sure to do it, I always do that because I want to create more emphasis into the content, otherwise it doesn't get said. Possible I could do that someway even with cutting these sentences short?

@SPR: You can still create emphasis with shorter sentences. You tend to rely too much on commas, but you can also create emphasis with other types of punctuation as some may be more appropriate for what your going for. As a general rule try to keep one idea per sentence as to not confuse the reader too much. Even if you don't confuse him it still might feel 'exhausting' after a while.



Like for the one idea thing just look at the sentence I quoted. You could just have your first sentence be about the Macklemore' malaise towards his last album's success and then use another sentence to highlight that idea with the description you made of each song and how they reflect the duality of Macklemore's situation.



These are my two cents.

The Heist was cool honestly but this is so mediocre it hurts. The highlight is Eric Nalley's guest spot and thats pretty much it.
