Fuck contemplative rap, Rae Sremmurd wanted nothing more than to make a banger of a debut, and they succeeded in unbeatable ways. SremmLife is a party album, but it works because it’s a really weird party album. The Brothers Sremm make shit rhyme that you didn’t even know could rhyme over Mike WiLL-produced beats, they turn Donald Trump into a winking hook, and they barely enunciate any of these clever moments, because why bother? SremmLife is just trying to make you feel some type of way. –Gabriela
