He needs a dope beat and features from different A-list artist to make his albums merely listenable. The Atlanta rapper did attempt to shuffle the deck, allowing a Pharrel-produced track for his first single “Feds Watching,” and a collaboration with Black Eyed Peas first lady Fergie, titled “Netflix.” This array of collaboration is fitting for the artist. His music serves as a beacon of will power over any hurdle, over any critic or any label who says he doesn’t belong (which he doesn’t.) His craft is a perfect mixture of vivacious punchlines and humor that leaves listeners puzzled as to say “did he really just say that?” The tone he set for his album is parallel to a B.O.A.T. Known for his eccentric style, 2 Chainz’ album opener “Fork,” starts with a skit where the artist is engaged in an argument he and his mother are having over money left in his jeans. Today it seems like hip hop record labels are looking for rappers with extreme passion to become raps biggest star, but lacking the true skill. Long gone are the days when pure talent and lyrical content in hip hop music pierced ears of crazed rap fans. In the hip hop world these days, intense desire supersedes talent. Whatever it is, you can’t deny that 2 Chainz has a tenacious hunger and a strong fan base despite his handicap of lyricism that has catapulted him to where he is today.

Maybe it’s the hilarious one-liners or the beat that attacks your eardrums.

Overall, this album is a pile of trash with a hint of a smell good aroma that makes you unknowingly bob your head and perhaps recite a line or two. II: Me Time, is riddled with comical hooks, luke warm lyrics and senseless punchlines.
