You can take away his freedom, you can take away his social media privileges, but you can not take away Tekashi 6ix9ine's sense of humor. Brooklyn 22-year-old rapper Daniel Hernandez released his first studio album. Dummy BoyTuesday, November 27, after being postponed due to his arrest on November 18 on charges of racketeering and firearms. The rapper, who has already identified himself as part of Nine in New York The band Trey Bloods is about to shout "Tr3yway" on his new album, but he locks himself every time with a smirk, choosing to move on.

Dummy Boy comes just nine months after the first commercial mixtape of 6ix9ine, Day 69: Graduation Dayand it is clear that he desperately wants to go on to stardom. But the rainbow-haired discontent has not yet earned this crossover status, and it seems that he knows it. Therefore, the 34 minutes, 13 songs Dummy Boy feels like two separate albums. It is full of deformed minimalist rhythms and scathing cries that landed for the first time on Bill Billboard on the Billboard Hot 100 with his single "Gummo", but it also offers several excursions in self-tuned pop-rap and Latin polished. trap. The result is a scattershot album that in turn sounds ambitious, formally and – most damningly – boring.

6ix9ine would have done better to stay in his comfort zone. "Stoopid", the opening piece Dummy BoyThe most explosive, immediately catchy beats and sung percussive raps. Brooklynite compatriot Bobby Shmurda, who is currently serving a seven-year prison sentence, delivers a fiery, recorded couplet on the phone that twists her own 2014 hit "Hot N *** a". It's an exciting feature, largely because Shmurda comes in and out quickly, poking the track without overshadowing 6ix9ine.

The same can not be said elsewhere. The watery voice of 6ix9ine quickly gives way to a lethargic couplet of Nicki Minaj that dominates the last two thirds of his tube, "Fefe". He drowns in nasty Auto-Tune on the melodic planes "Tic Toc" and "Feefa", while these endlessly looping guitar licks let listeners know that it's all about serious songs. But 6ix9ine lacks range of introspection or sentimentality, which makes these performances inauthentic. The rapper plays the role of player on two almost identical collaborations and back to back of Anuel AA, "Bebe" and "Mala". It's a spectacular sequence failure that stops Dummy BoyThe momentum is halfway and it is obvious that the Latin trap should not waste its time trying to adopt 6ix9ine.

Dummy BoyThe best collaborations of do not try to dilute the vocal delivery of 6ix9ine; instead, they take a page from the screamo book of the mid-2000s by keeping the crooked hooks and the screaming verses as far apart as possible. It works nicely well on "Kika", thanks to Tory Lanez's worm chorus and 6ix9ine's stiff bars. ("I blast this, now, where Bobby Shmurda's hat went" is one of the strongest punches on the album.) "It's f *** in Trojan! This is f *** in & # 39; Target! "Lanez screams on the end of the song before bursting into laughter while he was trying not to give the name Tr3yway.

Without surprise, Dummy Boy works better as noisy and stupid fun. Kanye West presents himself on "Kanga", a shady rager who interpolates "F *** in" Problems by A $ AP Rocky and Kelis' "Milkshake" in just over two minutes. West and Minaj also appear on "Mama" with diminishing returns. The two rappers call in their verses on the trap number traps, asking the following question: What business do these superstars keep a rapper half their age? It is either a shameless attempt to take advantage of its series of commercial successes in light of their own career mistakes, or a poorly designed support from a friend with controversial backgrounds. West and Minaj would do well to distance themselves from a rapper who pleaded guilty to the use of a child at a bad show and who is now facing life imprisonment for his past violent. They would also do well not to deliver mediocre performances on equally mediocre songs.

For all his bluster, Dummy Boy does not end with a bang but a groan on the dull "Dummy". This is a remix of "Stuck in Dubai" by TrifeDrew, but 6ix9ine only appears on the last 30 seconds of the song. There lies Dummy BoyThe biggest flaw: 6ix9ine is repeatedly put away by his collaborators and sounds like a visitor on his own album. The young rapper tries to balance things between his aggressive show, his streetwise roots and his big-budget shows, and then fails. Dummy Boy was supposed to be the commercial and artistic breakthrough of 6ix9ine. Instead, it's the least interesting thing in his life right now.
