Former Fall Out Boy lead singer Patrick Stump decides to drop a few pounds, manages to loose his thick rimmed glasses and trade them in for a pop-star alter-ego. One thing that he hasn’t managed to loose, however, is his talent; the guy can still sing…really well. In addition to playing every instrument on the album, Patrick truly lets his musical muscle shine in Soul Punk. Although I don’t really understand the album name, its lacking in both soul and punk.
And to all the Fall Out Boy fans who might complain about the album…lets face it, they have been going pop for a very long time. I wanted to hate it too, but the guy is so damn good. You have to give him credit for that.
