Last we heard from Young Dro was his debut album: Best Thang Smokin,‘ in 2006, and now he has resurfaced with his sophomore project titled High Times. After his seven year hiatus, Dro fails to give his fans what they remember, and that is his well put together metaphors and lyricism. The albums lacks depth and the production is horrific. This title should perhaps be changed to Pitifully Low Times

The eccentric, charismatic, Atlanta rapper covers subjects ranging from drug ties to eloquent metaphors of his wardrobe. Dro’s fashion is a cross between a pimp and retired blue collar worker. Or as Young Dro says himself on his lead single “FDB,” he’s now wearing “Trinidad James clothes.”

Young Dro, the once metaphorical genius, set sail with his first single of his long overdue album with “Odds” which is Dro’s best work his second go around. Dro knows he’s the oddball of his rap peers and his music details that.

The Grand Hustle records signee has a feature from the Grand Hustle head honcho, T.I., with a song title “Nope,” which is a pretty annoying because they are saying it repeatedly. “Hello” featuring new artist, Natasha Mosley, sings the hook so well that it’s reminiscent of a young Mariah Carey.

In “Im Cold,” which is a common song for a prototypical southern rapper, he raps lyrics about his brand names and his jewelry being so iced-out. “Im cold, you could see the diamonds like 3-D, yellow rocks in my watch that’s pee-pee, everything Gucci thats gee gee.”

In “Free Fall” featuring Blue June, Young Dro comes with a positive approach that is scarce through out the album. He raps lyrics about the pain and struggles that he still has even with the fame he has. “My wounds open like the doors of the mall, my heart broken, but don’t nobody know it all.”
