Wale - Attention Deficit LP Review
Wale, the D.C. based rapper who is deeply connected with his roots and style, brought a little bit of everything he had to his first major-label debut album, Attention Deficit. Up until this point, the D.C. native dropped creative, high-profile mixtapes, such as The Mixtape About Nothing, and collaborated with a few different high-end producers, such as England’s Mark Ronson. His mixtapes were known for being creative yet controversial. For example, his 100 Miles and Runnin’ mixtape featured songs such as W.A.L.E.D.A.N.C.E, a feel good song with a freestyle flow, but his The Mixtape about Nothing mixtape featured songs like The Kramer, which targeted the racism and self-hatred that the ‘N’ word brings to African Americans.
It seems like Attention Deficit was a perfect mixture of both controversial and feel-good styles of beats and lyrics. I can’t lie. I was a little nervous when the first hit of the album, Chillin’ Featuring Lady Gaga, started getting play on the radio. I started to believe that the whole album would be full of fake, show-rap tracks like that one. Fortunately, it was one of the few of its kind, and soon-to-be classic tracks such as Beautiful Bliss, featuring Roc Nation’s J Cole, and Mama Told Me overshadowed Chillin’. Pretty Girls featuring Gucci Mane has an upbeat, distinctive vibe to it, and is sure to get radio time considering Gucci Mane’s success as of late Tracks like Shades Featuring Chrisette Michelle, Diary Featuring Marsha Mabrosius, and Contemplate target controversial or uncomfortable subjects in a clever 1st-person point of view.
His in-depth yet freestyle-like rhyme schemes hit hard on every song, and I didn’t find one track disappointing. (Besides Chillin’, of course) Appearances by Jhazmin Sullivan, Pharrell, J Cole, Bun B and Chrisette Michelle fit the album perfectly, as they did their thing on their hooks and verses.
We all know how much rappers change once they hit mainstream (Drake, for example) It seemed to me like Wale tried to stay as true to himself as possible while making the album easily acceptable to the masses. He did a pretty good job of it, too.
I’ll give it a 4.5 out of 5. Look out for this dude in the future! I’m telling you!
