Mr. Malone knows what’s the essence of certain music genres. His successful early album, Beerbongs & Bentleys is an example of his music success. The hip-hop goers wouldn’t pick the album for the best hip-hop album of the year. However, listeners were into hip-hop and his work contained all the ‘cool’ and ‘hot’ hip-hop elements. It was a tasty hip-hop caricature.
After his mega hit, he continued his musical swag for few more albums. Then Austin(2023) album started showing himself as a boy who just loves music. It was innocent and vulnerable. In terms of genre, it was ‘sing a song writer’ or ‘alternative rock’. And these are most underrated and least favorite genre, rn.
F-1 Trillion is quite interesting album with interesting concept. F150 is the most symbolic american vehicle. and the title and cover image reminds that. And it is plunging into calm water. Entire album is full of featuring artists who are majorly successful and most named country musicians.
Yes, album ‘F-1 trillion’ is a country caricature. If you are country gore, you wouldn’t pick his album before ‘traveller’ by Chris Stapleton. I love and respect country. however, contemporary country music and artists are in deep self-repetitions and regenerations. Truck, Beer, Cigarettes are only entertainment and the gal(girl) is only care in most of songs. They are also doing caricatures of country. Where are the life of farmers and appreciation toward nature. The album cover looks like ‘hey, country dumbs, let’s drive drunk with beer and jump into deep bottom of the water’ to me. Country artists are also drooling on Posty and got on the truck.
Who cares at the end, let’s get drunk and get onto the banging F1 trillion.
P.S I am dying for Mr. Malone’s K-pop. Posty, ❤️
