Friday the Cellphone Man |
Friday the Cellphone Man has traditional weight, but failed to make the most of it.
After promising a strong come back,
the traditional singer has followed up with a project that
exudes mediocrity. Almost every song is lyrically weak, and while the overall
effort isn’t bad, it’s one that is certainly disappointing.
It’s disappointing because listeners
were promised an album that would remind them of why they felt in love with the singer in the first place.
Instead, we received an album full of comical lyrics with less of his dialect.
The music overall lacks potency.
It’s also worth mentioning, though, that there are two great songs on this album. Listeners will probably be better off selecting their favorite tracks and deleting the rest to create a more refined experience.
Friday proved over the years that he has potential to make ambitious art, but instead he leap for the safe embrace of mediocrity in I Want Eat My Lay Tin.
