I've been hearing about Necro for quite a while. It began back in high school with a friend of mine and I'd hear a thing or two about people listening to him since that time.

My cousin had a song on a CD she made in her car and I was able to listen to it a few weeks back.

Well, I've been listening to a few songs for the past few days so that I can form an opinion on this guy.

My favorite? The Sexorcist. Why? Necro's verbal degradation towards women is so violent and crude that there's no possible way he's being serious. Lines like, 'sticking a gun in your cunt for fun' and 'Shit on your blouse, then kick you outta my house naked and slut take it that’s what initiations about' are timelessly classic and slightly nostalgic of things all guys think but don't want to say. It's true, don't try to tell me it's not.

But, the production part of the songs is just terrible. The vocals don't even sound processed, he rips off beats from other songs all the time, it sounds like he recorded this in his bedroom. Is that what he's going for? Maybe. But I don't think so.

I see a lot of potential here. The flow and rythym he has is great, but it needs to be matched with equally great production.

I'm looking forward to future work and the possibility of enhancement and progression.
