HERE COME THE ABCS

I really don't know how to write about this one.

I think it's a good album for teaching a kid the ABCs. Right? It fulfills its artistic purpose. The issue with evaluating this album is that I am twenty two years old and I do not need this.

I do not have a rubric for this. I do not have a way of critically engaging with this. It's included for the sake of completion, mostly. I appreciate the fact that the production isn't awful; it's fun, it's very TMBG. These songs have good basslines, they have good and interesting drum patterns and samples. It's just overpowered by the fact that the lyrics make me feel like I'm 6, which is intentional and not a fault.

The framing devices on this album are catchy and likely work. The strongest songs on the album by far are ones with interesting framing devices. Alphabet Lost And Found is easily the strongest track on the album solely because it's a fun concept. It's all silly stuff. Here's professor Flans with L M N O. Yep.

The production on each song is varied and manages to distinguish each track. This album sounds like a kids' album, but it doesn't sound samey. That's good, at least. From the country sounds of I C U to the rhythmic nature of Alphabet Of Nations, it's a very varied experience, which I assume texturally works for a kids album.

I feel like I just watched an episode of The Wiggles. This is objectively the correct emotion.
