    Cali Swag District's surviving members memorialize M-Bone in the artwork of The Kickback, the group's debut full-length, which was originally set for release last year through Capitol before arriving in stores independently through a distribution deal with Sony RED. That dedication is a rare glimmer of gravity on a set filled with buzzy, lightweight odes to whips ("Burn Out [Drive Fast]"), women ("I'm Freaking You") and weed ("I Don't Need Your Money").

    With Kickback, they prove they know how to throw a good party. Next time, the threesome will need to strive for better than par.

    The Kickback is a cool, slick, and easy party for the most part, with the occasional ballad slowing things down a bit too much.
