This was a pretty funny album to me. There are a couple of tunes on here like track 1 where he is singing about smoking dope and getting caught by old smokey. Also on Track 11, he talks about Hootie and the Blowfish in a pretty funny way. I would say this album has an old school feel to it, with sounds like The Mama's and The Papa's on a few tracks, and switching gears on some other tunes which have more picking and a country feel to it, and even a singer songwriter feel as well. Solid overall, with tracks 1, 4, 6, and 11 being some of my favorites on the album.
