Sweet F.A.
@Dex Stewart
I think I went into it being critical, since I was kind of thinking it was just some attempt to cash in on a genre, but by the time I got to the song “Commotion in the Ocean” and the part where he was like:
Wanna ride the surf at 90 miles an hour
Hope you don’t get… get… sour
I think that line was the part where I broke and realized that there was no way this was some record exec’s doing. My enjoyment of the album only increased after I read about its backstory of Dee Dee learning about rap music while in rehab and wanting to make his own rap. It made the whole thing seem oddly sincere and wholesome, and I can’t fault it for that.
