BrokeNCYDE - I'm Not A Fan But The Kids Like It!BrokeNCYDE – I’m Not A Fan But The Kids Like It!

I have only just come across BrokeNCYDE but from reading up on the band I have realised that there is a lot of fuss about these guys they have had well over 41 Million plays on their MySpace page so far with more plays being added each and every day, they have toured alongside bands such as Hollywood Undead and Senses Fail and they have now released their debut full length album ‘I’m Not A Fan But The Kids Like It!’ which many people claiming that it is going to do massive things for the band.

I can see that BrokeNCYDE are a scene band that are going to appeal to teenagers all over the world as they play their brand of Crunkcore music, I do seriously wonder where all these sub music genres come from and who thinks of the names for them as Crunkcore may be the new cool with the scene kids but I feel it is going to be a scene that is short lived.

BrokeNCYDE have a sound that mixes the electronics and randomness of Mindless Self Indulgence with the vocal style of Hollywood Undead and as for the band members they look like sexually starved college graduates who are on a mission to fuck anything and anyone that crosses their paths all you need to do is take a look at a picture of the band or listen to a couple of songs to get that feeling.

The album starts off with a really pointless sounding introduction and then it blast off into the first proper song ‘Freaxxx’ which opens up with the following lyrics “I walk into the club looking kind of sexy now, I see these shorties in the corner, they started making out, they pull their panties down, they take their pants off, then they started getting freaky on the dance floor’, now if this is not the worst introduction that I have ever heard by a band then I don’t know what is, the lyrics are sleazy and badly written and executed in an very boring way vocally, the song is drenched in un-original synths and overall just sucks.

The lead single released to promote the album was ‘Booty Call’ the song features E-40 and even the inclusion of him doesn’t help brighten up the music that BrokeNCYDE have created, in fact it just bores me to death that BrokeNCYDE have brought some pure hip-hop into the song.

‘Get Crunk’ is a song for all the scene kids and I can just imagine them now at the bands gigs dressed in various different fluorescence colours whilst dancing around like lunatics to the sound of ‘Get Crunk’ whilst trying to understand what the lyrics are.

I think whatever BrokeNCYDE believe they have down below they lack up above as the majority of the album is a no brainer and all about sex, ’40 OZ’ is about getting your sex on in the club, ‘Sex Toys’ is about being teased, ‘Rockstar’ is about the band being full of sexy dudes and features really lame lyrics of “I drive those bitches sexy, Cause I’m a sexy dude, but don’t expect on having sex unless you shave your pubes’ and also “I’ll make you lick my magic stick, you can lick my lolly pop, my lolly pop, my lalalala lolly pop’.

BrokeNCYDE are a band who are everything that I hate about the music scene, I hate bands that create shit music and are so cock sure about themselves, BrokeNCYDE might go on and be successful with the release of this album but the success will be short lived and their rock star dream will be over before they know it.

1/5
