Say this for Elucid, he delivers exactly what he promises. The Sub Bass Diet pounds your inner ears for 14 tracks. The menu is bass, witty rhymes and a mix of the man’s humor and social commentary. And more bass.
“My Mayor Is A Billionaire” epitomizes Elucid’s potential and the album’s overall vibe. He’s a comfortable and intelligent MC whose shows his Brooklyn roots with an appropriate mix of swagger and wry irony. Still in up and comer mode, he’s more about exposing injustices and imbalances than celebrating the good life.
The album has plenty of missteps and those accustomed to more poppy efforts may be turned off by the constant aural punishment. But some music’s supposed to be dirty.
