I don't think I genuinely love any of the songs on the album.

that one track with kid rock is still amazing but yeah i can't remember any of the others on there that i liked. the one w/ lil jon is cool actually.
but yeah i've effectively stopped caring about yelawolf... it's not so much that the album was bad per se as it was that he seemed so noncommittal & it just all came off really poorly. saying that it killed his buzz is a pretty accurate description! i.e. he's released a few mixtapes since then & i haven't seen a single review of one or anyone talk about them on twitter etc

i still maintain that i'd love to see him do a total deliverance style country album and preferably an entire collaborative album w/ kid rock
― pussy try it (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 21 November 2012 14:22 (eleven years ago) link
i think the kid rock track was the exact moment i was like "peace god"
― thraeds of life (The Reverend), Wednesday, 21 November 2012 14:25 (eleven years ago) link
i'm SURE when "throw it up" dropped before the album everyone was blown away by it

― some dude, Wednesday, 21 November 2012 14:36 (eleven years ago) link
i actually did listen to the yelawolf/travis barker EP, it was ok
The reviews I read of this year's Heart of Dixie mixtape all frame the tape around the premise that Radioactive was a potentially career killing disaster.
Also, Yela opens the tape by rapping “Why do I feel like I never had Marshall Mathers’ co-sign sometimes?/Like Radioactive failed? Maybe when I tell myself I’m one of the best, I’m just lyin’," so he seems to think something went wrong there, too.

I co-sign w/ all the travesty talk.
This is Phantogram, by the way. I actually like them quite a bit but they have no place on a fucking Big Boi record. (Plus the collab they've already teased from the Big Boi record sucks.)

looking back at the yela thread, yeah some people put in good notices for the track, but no one was remotely as enthusiastic about it (or the album) as you

hahaha, OTM
So yeah, I feel like to the extent that Radioactive didn't kill Yelawolf's career, it's because not a lot of people actually heard it. Terrible album.
― Evan R, Wednesday, 21 November 2012 19:33 (eleven years ago) link
yeah, and the problem isn't so much that he stopped rapping well so much as he just started making terrrrrrible creative decisions

before anyone asks i'll preface this by saying i have a promo, i don't think this has leaked
so i'm not sure yet if this is genuinely terrible or not but wow. every song i'm like "hmmm you know this one doesn't sound terrible" and then someone who isn't sleep brown comes to sing the chorus & it's just like *closes eyes, exhales slowly*
the wavves track is truly as bad as you imagined it would be
