Honorable Mention. SLUT ME OUT 2 – COUNTRY ME OUT CASHVILLE REMIX (Ft. Reyna Roberts)
This song’s name pisses me off. However, it’s actually pretty decent.
I usually dislike it when artists make a mockery of music genres, but somehow, NLE Choppa pulls it off with “SLUT ME OUT 2 – COUNTRY ME OUT.” He manages to successfully merge the raw, explicit lyrics you’d expect from his “SLUT ME OUT 2” tracks with a charming country instrumental, surprisingly solid vocals, a catchy (and, dare I say, irresistible) hook, and an overall feel-good vibe. The remix features Reyna Roberts, who spices things up with a fiery, high-quality verse that adds even more flair to the track. I’m a slight fan, folks.
This song is for damn sure better than the non-country version.
5. Ballin
I feel like NLE Choppa actually tried on this song.
I think the melodies NLE Choppa experiments with on this track are excellent, especially the one he delivers on the hook. I also appreciate that the song leans more toward a nurturing tone rather than a purely provocative one, as he focuses on finding and connecting with this girl rather than just lusting after her. Don’t worry, though—he still sneaks in some sex-related and violent bars here and there. Overall, I enjoy the balance he strikes on this track.
4. Gang Baby
The old NLE Choppa has entered the chat.
In “Gang Up,” NLE Choppa continues to discuss slutting women out, detailing various sexual actions throughout his verses, including nailing, biting, and potentially formatting them like hard drives. While I’m not a fan of him recycling this whole sex-crazed theme, I do appreciate the track’s hard-hitting, demonic instrumentation and the subdued, consistent rap style he employs.
NLE Choppa must have dangerous levels of libido in his body. He should probably get checked out.
3. SLUT ME OUT 3 (Ft. Carey Washington)
This song has more sequels than Fast & Furious.
This is the only “SLUT ME OUT” that I can stomach. First and foremost, the track has a disco-pop beat that gives me Roll Bounce vibes, which I love. Over it, we get this extremely catchy, bubbly chorus by Carey Washington (Yeah, she totally jacked Kerry Washington’s name), where she says she wants NLE Choppa to treat her like lunch meat. As for NLE Choppa, he delivers some nasty-ass verses that sound like a play-by-play of Shannon Sharpe’s infamous IG video. I do rock with how he rides the beat, though (No f**king pun intended). All in all, I’m not mad at this track.
2. Stickin And Movin
Toss Ludacris on this track, and it would go quadruple platinum.
NLE Choppa is known for his wild energy in music, so hearing him take a more laid-back approach in “Stickin And Movin” was a refreshing change. Over a smooth, easygoing beat that feels like it belongs in a bachelor pad designed for charm, NLE adopts a relaxed tone and delivers dynamic flows as he talks about his nocturnal escapades and insatiable appetite for companionship. The track has a hypnotic quality, paired with a hook that’s undeniably catchy and hard to resist.
1. Or What (Ft. 41 & Kyle Richh)
“Or What” makes “I Get Around” by Tupac sound like a Gospel song.
Despite the track’s almost therapeutic vibes from a production standpoint, it delivers some of the most unapologetically raunchy lyrics you’ll hear today from NLE Choppa, 41, and Kyle Richh. Throughout the song, they express risqué desires, asking their respective partners if they are “f**kin or what” and make bold, explicit requests, such as asking if they can splash white substances on their rears. So why do I, a Christian, find myself drawn to this track? Honestly, 90% of it is due to the gritty back-and-forth dynamic between 41 and Kyle, which I think sounds undeniably dope. As for NLE, his performance teeters on the edge of absurdity, and at times, it almost made me reconsider praising the track at all.
SONG-BY-SONG RATING
RGM RATING
(61%)
This album is full of a bunch of tracks I’m simply not trying to listen to. Seriously, what the f**k is “COUNTRY ME OUT?”
In a nutshell, this is what you get on this album: Random reggae accents, country music, one or two club bangers, orchestra remixes, about five SLUT ME OUTs, some extremely poor vocal performances, interesting guest appearances, and some of the most explicit, daring lyrics you will ever here. Is the album good? No. Is it interesting? Yes. How many times do you get to hear what an animal would sound like if you gave it a damn molly and viagra?
