Kid Ink
Disorienting, dispiriting and very long, My Own Lane is less a collection of rap songs than an endurance event. Opener Hello World is a useful Chiddy Bang impression: immediate, catchy, soulless. Main Chick is as saccharine sweet as a song containing the line, “Fuck whoever you came with” can be. Tattoo Of My Name is a solid example of the Weezy-influenced sing-song we lost interest in five years ago. More Than A King hints at a talents Ink doesn't share elsewhere. It's the only time he seems genuinely engaged throughout the record. That's nowhere near enough.
