While it would be easy to categorize Louy Fierce as
rap/hip hop, his sound is not exclusively that. Many songs give attention to
melody and musical elements, though there is usually at least one rap segment.
The bio information indicates that Fierce started
playing multiple instruments early, and that is easily believable, with a solid
delivery of musical elements.
That makes it more frustrating that the lyrics are
so often irritating. Frequent references to weed and his own sense of greatness
are common rap elements, but grating. (I find them grating in other artists
too, but obviously there is an audience for it.)
With the musical skill and talent shown, it feels
like the lyrics are worth working on. A period of focus on great writers,
perhaps even some attempts to set poetry to music, might be a valuable growth
experience.
