    With the release of old Town Road, you would think that Lil Nas X knows how to have fun. This EP shows that not only does he seem to take himself too seriously as an "artist", it also shows he doesn't know how to have fun on the track. He is not charismatic as we thought with the release of Old Town Road and its remix with country legend Billy Ray Cyrus. It's almost as if he is forcingWith the release of old Town Road, you would think that Lil Nas X knows how to have fun. This EP shows that not only does he seem to take himself too seriously as an "artist", it also shows he doesn't know how to have fun on the track. He is not charismatic as we thought with the release of Old Town Road and its remix with country legend Billy Ray Cyrus. It's almost as if he is forcing himself to be on his own songs. The production on most of the EP sounds decent but it's a cluster of sounds that don't really go together. He isn't lyrical so he doesn't fit in with the Kendrick, J cole type crowd. He doesn't have a presence on the track like a Drake or Nicki. It's hard to put him in a box which is a good thing and a bad thing. The EP seems to be geared towards the crowd that made Old town road successful: kids. These are kids bop level songs that aren't going to be enjoyable in a couple weeks. He doesn't have anything meaningful to say on any of these tracks. It is clear that this "rapper" is here today and gone tomorrow. Expand

    Lil Nas creates nothing more than just a bunch of unorganized ideas that seem to levitate but never get through to the point.

    TOP TRACKS: Panini, C7osure
    AVOID TRACKS: Old Town Road

    No tiene el talento suficiente, es un álbum lleno de lo mismo, todo suena a old town Road, siendo un one hit wonder, solo quiere volver a crear la misma técnica y obvio olvidó la calidad

    Big trash. Poor attempt to cross every genre ever, doesn’t sound natural at all. Super force sound throughout the whole album. Just bad

    I really don't know what to say about this EP. It's short yet still managed to bore me. With Old Town Road playing everywhere, you'd think this would be a decent EP with bops. Sorry, this is definitely not for me. If anyone here likes it, sure. Why not? But for me, it's like he didn't even put an effort to make this sound at least decent. I really hope Lil Nas X considers something elseI really don't know what to say about this EP. It's short yet still managed to bore me.

I really hope he improves for his upcoming songs. Expand

    Es un álbum súper básico con solo una canción que le dió popularidad, nada innovador, nada que deje huella, simplemente un mojón más.

    These are two-minute tracks that largely veer all over the place – cohesion, concept, and artistry go out the window here.
  2. 65
    In terms of catchy beats and somewhat meaningful lyrics, each song has one or the other, and Lil Nas X just needs a little more time to get them to match up.

    There are enough hooks in this bouquet of confusing-if-passable genre-hopping tracks to keep him on the path to future hits, but nothing comes remotely close to the lightning in a bottle of "Old Town Road"'s accidental perfection.
