Kidd Russell – Backyard Heroes Album Review

Band Name:
Kidd Russell

Album Title:
Backyard Heroes

Genre:
Alternative / Hip Hop / Reggae

Description of Music:
The music on this album changes from track to track. Sometimes it’s a laid back reggae feel, while other times its a hard rock sound, then it could go to acoustic piano on the next track. Backyard Heroes’ tracks usually have a chill and laid back vibe, and it’s very easy listening. All in all this album makes for a diverse experience with a great vibe.

Comparisons to Other Artists:
Cross between Will Smith and Drake

Lyrical Significance:
Kidd Russell’s lyrics are very well put together, and again, very easy to listen to. His style changes from song to song, offering a variety of different experiences for his listeners. He raps and sings, sometimes in the same song. This is really a great album, and Kidd Russell’s experience in the game shows through.

Overall Rating (out of 10) :
8.8
