"So who here is tired of the gangster garbage rap has succumb to these days? yeah thats pretty much everyone. So has ugly duckling, so they released an album to completely overthrow that. They managed to make an amazing album entirely without cursing or any guest appearances. This album is just a funny, chilled out album. For those not feeling the G-rated style this album contains then i think your crazy becuase i find it hillarious. "Dumb It Down" is the key song in this album as it pokes fun at the whole "its cool to dumb" thing the majority of the youth hip hop world has become nowadays. They do it with funny, clever rhymes from Andy and Dizzy and really the best beats Young Einstein has put together to date. "Meat Shake" is another great song that parodies major fast food companies going overboard with the amount of beef put on menus these days. "Rio De Janiero" is one of the best laced hip hop - jazz beats ive ever heard all about that feeling everyone has to just get away. But enough about the songs, the point is that theres nothing new about Ugly Duckling except that this album is their best to date and i reccomend it really to anyone."
