Down with Webster: Time to Win, Vol. 2

When it comes to Down With Webster, a party ain’t a party without red cups. If you’re not familiar with the band by name, there is no doubt you’ve heard one of their previous hits; Canadian radio loves them. The energetic six-man group comes through with their sophomore album Time To Win, Vol. 2, full of catchy hooks, guitar solos, and witty rap verses. The lead single off the album, “She’s Dope” immediately caught the attention of fans across Canada with its poppy synth and head-bopping background guitar. While this second album is more toned down in relation to Time To Win, Vol.1, the group keeps true to the rap-rock genre throughout its 13 tracks.

Many tracks on the album keep with the theme of women, such as “Jessica,” which has the insanely catchy hook, “We can be best friends, but I want your best friend.” Other tracks like “I Want It All” deal with their increasing status in a true rap discussion on the effects of fame. “Royalty” and “White Flags” start off slow, in the vein of fellow Canadian rapper Drake, before transitioning to rock choruses.

Overall, the album is a solid effort, but the group needs to expose themselves to a wider audience if they really want it to be “time to win.” They have the potential to do so with this album, and if you’re looking for a fun and catchy addition to your fall playlist, look no further: Down With Webster has you covered.
