Not Quite What I Was Hoping For...

"Let me just begin by saying that when I first heard "Coco Jamboo' on the radio, I was blown away. They lyrics weren't all that impressive, but the beat was fantastic. Granted the song was only played a few times, I knew that I had to have the album (The self titled album with the white background). The album was amazing, but it seemed like that was the end for Mr. President in the states. When I searched for them on the internet, I found the album "Night Club". Hoping that it would be as good as the first, I bought it without hesitation. However, I was completely mistaken. The songs are no where near the quality that the previous album had delivered, and the songs were very poorly done and had incredibly cheesey lyrics (I would rate it 1 out of 5 stars). But then I came across "Space Gate". I was a little nervous, but I decided to give Mr. President another chance. The sounds of the album were leaning toward their debut album, but it didn't quite take me to the same place. And the song writing is MILES ahead of that of "Night Club" but the soul and meaning just isn't there. It's like they've lost their magic... I only gave it three stars. It isn't a bad album... it's just that there is A LOT of room for improvement. If they make another album, I probably won't buy it after these two.So sad really..."
