    The better surprise is his heavy dose of talent that doesn't necessarily dazzle but does charm, and is deep enough to keep things interesting for a whole album.

    He sounds as unflappable as the subject of his first hit.

    31 Minutes' breezy B-boy anthems may keep the man of the half hour around well past Labor Day.

    This album may be all beer pong, but the album has skilled lyrics, and definately deserves some sort of standing ovation. My favorites includeThis album may be all beer pong, but the album has skilled lyrics, and definately deserves some sort of standing ovation. My favorites include the second promo single "Please Don't Go", the skilled remake "Bow Chicka Wow Wow", If you're the kind of person who just loves and leaves, pick "Gone In September", and the pop potential hit "Cheated".

    What the **** even is this? It's like a terrible half rap album. Mike can't rap. The lyrics on this sound like he thinks he's a self help guru. Where "I Took A Pill in Ibiza" seemed like a guy struggling with success and wrestling with what it meant in a very identifiable way, this feels self indulgent. Like when a dude gets too much money and too much fame and gets too removed from real life and starts to think they're a guru.

    Also, man are the voicemails from celebrities kissing his ass is really weird. Hopefully he finds his footing again this is garbage.    … Full Review »
