LONG-AWAITED SOPHOMORE LP DEFIES EXPECTATION EXECUTIVE PRODUCED BY BOYS NOIZE, GUESTS INCLUDE BIG FREEDIA AND SANTIGOLD "He's the bomb. He's really a true artist and the best rapper, live, as well. Like once you see him live, he'll blow you away." - Boys Noize "...His stuff came out and it was so progressive ...it blew everyone away. " - Mark Ronson "When [Yoyoyoyoyo] came out... it cut through all the shit for me. It was like a slap 'round the face. The computers speaking over their reference points and pointing to something brand new. Turn it up." - Thom Yorke Kool Disco MC Spank Rock aka Naeem Juwan, the harbinger of the party-rap explosion of the mid-2000s, is primed to drop the sophomore effort, Everything Is Boring And Everyone Is A Fucking Liar October 03rd on Boysnoize Records. With the help of executive producer Boys Noize (who produced the bulk of the album), Spank Rock has taken a brand new, intrepid direction since 2005's Yoyoyoyoyo. The latest in a series of collaborative projects (Bangers & Cash with Benny Blanco or Mobroder with Blu Jemz, for example), Everything Is Boring And Everyone Is A Fucking Liar finds Naeem reinvigorated and inspired; the change is palpable. As it's title might suggest, Everything Is Boring And Everyone Is A Fucking Liar is a deliberate departure from the sound of Yoyoyoyoyo; the forthcoming album is a polished, melodic effort informed as much by pop and rock as club rap and electro. This striking amalgam is exemplified wholly by "Energy", the lead single produced by Boys Noize. The frenetic drum line maintains a stuttered clip that finds Spank Rock sounding somewhere between David Byrne and Ike Turner. No less striking is the Santigold-assisted "Car Song"- more thoughtful dance rock colliding with electronic influences. Later, production from Sam Spiegel and XXXchange help to achieve a balance of sonic elements, tethering together pop and electronic traits respectively and allowing them to gel beneath Spank Rock's cadence. Hedonism still makes itself present lyrically, as on "Hot Potato", or the wall-shaking Bounce anthem "Nasty" with Big Freedia, but the album's energetic sexuality is in good company alongside verses about industry frustration, love, and listless dancing, ultimately humanizing a musician as he metamorphoses into an artist. Everything Is Boring And Everyone Is A Fucking Liar is far-reaching topically yet fully committed to portraying Spank Rock's multi-faceted brilliance. P
