On his seventh album, Mac Dre maintains his Bay Area gangsta-rap narratives, but lightens the mood with bouncy electronic beats and odes to dancing. His relaxed approach comes through best on the boastful but comical “Stuart Littles,” a lazy guitar forming the core of its beat. “Rap Life” mixes video-game sounds into a rubbery loop powering a party anthem, and “Thizzelle Dance” is an instructional dance song that finds Dre at his most delightfully playful.
