{"product_id":"savage-4","title":"Savage","description":"Recording information: Greystone Studios, Los Angeles, CA; Platinum Sound Recording Studios, New York NY.\u003cbr\u003ePhotographer: Eric Williams.\u003cbr\u003eThe follow-up to Sex Love \u0026amp; Pain II, Savage marks the second time Durrell Babbs has released solo albums in consecutive years. He hadn't done it since his first two full-lengths came out in 2001 and 2002. Capitalizing on the commercial momentum of three straight number one R\u0026amp;B\/hip-hop chart-toppers, Babbs refers to the previous set's \"She wit the S***\" and \"I Love Ya\" as the explicit, trap-styled template for the majority of these subtlety-free tracks. He does it with a large group of beatmakers completely different from the cast on Sex Love \u0026amp; Pain II, including Cardiak, Swiff D, and Stronger contributors Da Internz, as well as a bunch of newcomers. Lyrically, this is true to the title in its single-minded forcefulness -- materialistic propositions that reduce romance to a financial transaction, vows to beat it up, boxing metaphors, police detainment fantasies with actual cuffing, the works. There are sleek, steely, predominantly lurching beats to match, with Babbs occasionally adopting a vocal approach akin to significantly younger, less technically proficient vocalists like Future and Migos. The singer even has some fun with the terminology, detachedly boasting in the opener, \"I'm a real fuckin' trapper\/Once I set the trap, I be fuckin' somethin' after.\" Babbs is genuinely plugged into the material with a voice at full, commanding power. ~ Andy Kellman","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47686215860511,"sku":"075678660245","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/d127d4cc12eeee0d4e05971825308e47.jpg?v=1777713590","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/savage-4","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
