Ghetto Cowboy is slightly more charming and interesting than Trunk Muzik 3 released earlier this year. What I admire most about Yelawolf is that he has a personality, a style of his own and above all an original imagery that makes me understand the interest his fans have in him. On the other hand, I've never really liked Yela, I always go backwards before listening to these projects, because I don't adhere to the style but especially because I think he's a decent rapper/singer but not more, sometimes even slightly bad, so necessarily it never makes it easier for me to listen. Then it's quite subjective, even if objectively it's not a rapper you're going to rank in the top 100 because it's far from being extraordinary. However his worst flaw and we see it a lot more on this new album is that even when he starts doing good things, he makes bad choices as if we have the impression that he's going right under the only little grey cloud. It's never perfect, never excellent.
