Today we're going to continue with one of our favorite rappers out there right now - George Watsky. In February 2012, the young rapper/poet released his 3rd mixtape, this time he has partnered with Kush Mody, with whom the 7- track bluegrass/folkrock/hiphop album was produced. The whole album sounds really fresh and cool - while being very different from Watsky's last mixtape, A New Kind of Sexy. The lyrics are easy-going, with lots of lines that make you smirk as soon as you hear them. Watsky brings his A-game, Mody gives the mixtape a cool sound and the featuring artists (Wax, Dylan Saunders, Danny McClain and Mieka Pauley) are awesome.What else can you want?

Song: Kick Monday (ft. Wax)

If I'm a bad influence
Then here's the great advice:
Kids! Don't be a dickweed!
Appreciate the shit out of the present moment
And be fucking nice!

And of course, it wouldn't be Watsky if he didn't make you think about stuff...

Song: Ghost Party (ft. Mieka Pauley)

God's a bully and he makes it rain dodgeballs
You can stand off in the corner and you might last a little longer
But you'll never win that way

The young poet/rapper George Watsky, whose first mixtape "Guilty Pleasures" was featured on FMK in January, dropped his second mixtape "A New Kind Of Sexy" on 1st August 2011. Guilty Pleasures was good, but in my honest opinion, A New Kind of Sexy brings a new, slightly better kind of music. First of all, Watsky himself has has evolved a lot between these two mixtapes (Guilty Pleasures was released in October 2009), which manifest in smarter wordplay, better flow and judicious lyrics.

Don't believe me? Here are a few examples:

Song: 4AM Monday

Haters give me balance. Every Kyle's got a Cartman
I know how failure tastes, I drink it straight from the carton
I always keep a gallon in the fridge at my apartment
to remind me how it feels to drop the ball like Stevie Bartman 

Song: Amazing Grace ft. Pat Dimitri

I used to ask strangers if they believed in a God
to see if we were peas in a pod
and if they didn't agree with me then i'd argue and try to be smarter thinking I'd hear people applaud
But
I'm getting older
And I'm getting dummer
Or least I know less than I did when I was younger
I used to profess, now I'm more pro-wonder
I used to fear death, now I'm set to go under

In addition, "A New Kind Of Sexy" feels more consistent than "Guilty Pleasures." When the latter was more "all over" with the beat selection varying from M.O.P. and Eminem to Miley Cyrus (which did gave the whole mixtape a fresh and different feeling, but I also heard some criticism regarding the unconventional beat selection, e.g. saying "great lyrics are wasted on some trashy remix to a crappy song" about the song "Colored Lines" on Miley Cyrus' beat). Anyways, no matter how you felt about Guilty Pleasures, the 2011 Watsky mixtape does feel more altogether than the 2009 release. My last words? Get that new kind of sexy!
