Let It Beat

I have to admit that when I heard the first few songs from Shwayze’s newest album, Let it Beat, I was a little disappointed. There was something different about the songs, and they didn’t seem as instantly catchy as those from his debut album. However, the more I listened to the album, the more it grew on me, and it’s now gotten to the point where I can’t stop listening to it. While I’m still not ready to say that it’s better than his last album, it’s pretty damn close. 

Shwayze continues to prove that no one in the industry fuses hip-hop and rock and roll better than he and partner Cisco Adler. This album has a bit more of a rock feel than his last album, but Shwayze continues to spit clever, witty, and creative lines in his signature fashion. Cisco Adler changes it up a bit, singing actual verses in a few songs rather than just jumping in on every hook. He also experiments with some more electric rock sounding songs instead of sticking with his usual chill, acoustic sound. As usual, the majority of the duo’s songs are about the lives of two hard-core partiers in love with weed, women, and alcohol. 

While this album is a bit different from Shwayze’s first one, the changes are good ones, and it’s definitely worth buying the whole thing. Check out “Heart and Soul,” one of the album’s best tracks, below.
