    Spirited "hip-hop-pop-rock" that never fails to entertain but rarely provides an insight into genius. Not as relevant as a Gym Class Heroes record but more appealing to the kids. The catchy songs are indicative of an album in its element but most will be put off by the generic lyrics and teen friendly tone. It is fair to say that the record is at its best when McCoy is not singing orSpirited "hip-hop-pop-rock" that never fails to entertain but rarely provides an insight into genius. Not as relevant as a Gym Class Heroes record but more appealing to the kids. The catchy songs are indicative of an album in its element but most will be put off by the generic lyrics and teen friendly tone. It is fair to say that the record is at its best when McCoy is not singing or rapping. There are good contributions by Cee-Lo and Colin Munroe and not such good offerings by T-Pain and Young Cash. 7/10 66/100… Expand

    Half brilliant, half laughable solo debut from Gym Class Heroes front man.

    McCoy employs too many disparate styles for Lazarus to hold any attention for more than a fleeting period.

    This is not a world-beater by any means, but it shows some growth in McCoy as an artist and lets him get out his ideas before recording and releasing the next Gym Class Heroes album.
