Mario & Fabolous Prove To Be A Bit On The Boring Side On “The Walls” (Stream)

Is it just me or is The Dream, Mario, Trey Songz, and Ne-Yo all starting to sound a lot like one another? They already have somewhat similar voices, but now the songs are starting to sound alike. Whether it's the production or the guest verse from whatever rapper is hot at the moment it all sounds way too similar. And I think that's exactly why people are gravitating towards artists like Frank Ocean and The Weeknd.

So when it comes to Mario's new song "The Walls" I'm just not impressed. His vocals are on point, Fab's verse wasn't bad but there isn't anything about the song that stands out to me. The production was also a bit on the boring side. I'm sure Rico Love could have come up with something that doesn't sound like every other R&B song that's been released in the past year. If anything at least Mario pulls off the unbuttoned shirt look well even if there is some Photoshopping going on.
