Method of Madness 1 by CG Kid, is not a song I would typically listen to.
It is described as ‘dubstep techno metal rap’. A sort of rap music that is influenced by heavy metal and techno genres.
This song was written for the mosh-pit environment, with the ‘speed rap vocals’ bringing a particularly anxious and frantic air to the music – it’s hard to sit still while listening to Method of Madness 1! The auctioneer-style vocals against the 1980’s-inspired techno instruments reminds me of German rock bands and rappers.
The messages in CG Kid’s tongue-twisting lyrics, are that of staying sober and clean.
CG Kid’s accompanying music video is of the fiery-red-haired rapper sat on a chair drinking ice-cold water is a peculiar juxtaposition to the music, but intriguing nevertheless.
It may not be my style, but I can see that CG Kid from Texas could easily summon a dedicated following – particularly from Europe, perhaps.
