Young Dro is another example of how a rapper can have his song all over the radio (in this case, "Shoulder Lean"), yet nobody picks up the album. And while Best Thang Smokin' is far from being a waste of time, it's not really anything to write home about either. The main problem here is that Dro's subject matter tends to get repetitive. Most songs have him talking about either his Impala or his Cartier watch (or, occasionally, the movie Lean on Me). And I was surprised that the album wasn't one big sex fest considering the album cover looks like it was made with a Luke template. Speaking of that, sexual songs don't work out very well, like the hidden track "She Tired of Me". But worse is "My Girl", which uninterestingly talks about threesomes due to his girl being bisexual. Things are also okay when Dro changes the subject, like on the obligatory hard-times-growin'-up song "Hear Me Cry". It's not that he can't spit, but he just doesn't do enough to hold the listener's attention (in fact, while I was listening to this, I was so bored that I started cleaning my room). And he definitely isn't quite as exciting as his mentor, T.I. Best Thang Smokin' is still fine to bump in your ride, but if you want more substance, look for something else. Anthony Rupert
