facile, and mixing mild self-congratulation with mild self-loathing as the music itself.

but that's probably due to many years of exposure to Dr. Claw online.

Peanut Butter RnB didn't strike me as too bad itself, though it led me to assume it was talking about a different kind of RnB than it's actually referencing.

It's so hip that you gotta kinda be an insider to know what it even means... and why.

instead of "PBR"... LOL

I don't think it's ALL PB&J, but some of the actual singers of said "PBR&B" (lol @ that term BTW) do have PB&J tendencies...whether it be in the voice, or the lyrics (I still can't believe Frank Ocean actually sang "Majin Buu"; that's something rappers would do)
