new music: Jason Mraz

Yesterday Mr. A-Z came out. Mraz style is what I call hill-billy-rap. That is that the words on most of the songs have a fast a rhyme scheme most similar to rap (See also G. Love and the Special Sauce, which is more of a bluezy-rap style). But the music and rhythm is more driven by guitar and banjo/mandolin style, almost a bluegrass feel, and the lyrics have nothing to do with the ghetto, racism, or money, pimps, and hoes. This album is on par with Waiting for my Rocket to Come, not worse but not better.
