My first reaction video for my YouTube channel! (video)

Since everyone and their mother seems to be talking about that new Cardi B album, I thought I throw my hat into the ring and share my thoughts and opinions about her debut album, reaction video style!
Made it about as long as I would have. I don't mind some bad pop music and I don't care enough to actively hate her, but I watched her on Saturday Night Live this weekend and was just kind of thought is sounded pretty derivative and amateur. I don't get it. You aren't missing much.

I think the derivative observation is right on the money. She hasn't done anything in my opinion to be unique; has essentially taken every single mainstream trap trope, blend them all together, and regurgitate back to the world like everyone else is doing right now. Which is why, despite the fact that I think trap could be more interesting than it is right now, sucks so bad.

Yeah, trap is in its death spiral for me right now and Cardi B. and Migos are the faces of it. I'm sure it'll putter along for another year or so, but I can't explain how bored I am by what I hear. It'll do what every trend does where it peaks, then becomes avoided like the plague, then it's styles will get blended into something else and just become part of the landscape. Right now though I'm just so bored by all of it.

Definitely not the strongest track on the album, which though I haven't give an in depth listen I scrubbed through because I knew I'd be playing tracks from it at a regular gig of mine. "I Like It" is pretty catchy for instance.
