I’ll be perfectly honest: during the first few bars of Playboy Tre‘s Liquor Store Mascot lead single, I had to stifle a chuckle – anybody familiar with HBO stars Flight of the Conchords’ Robots will understand why (and if not, it’s worth a YouTube search). That said, We Are The Robots makes a serious point about conformity in the music industry. Rejoining forces with his Nite Life collaborator, Tre takes aim at the tired gangsterisms and hypermasculine clichés that so many rappers fall back on in order to achieve mainstream success, while B.o.B widens the lyrical focus to give listeners a bird’s-eye view of our increasingly standardized lifestyles. Baby Boi‘s fittingly futuristic beat, complete with military drums, evokes the image of robots on the march. With science-fiction style and plenty of lyrical substance, We Are The Robots should have fans flocking in lockstep to their local record shops come spring of this year.

These are the two upcoming most talented artists right now! The hook was dope and the technology style production was dope and they didnt over do it because there was still nice bass. Playboy Tre's verse was dope and B.o.B.'s message is touching and he always gets his point across. Both of his verses were straight fire! This is some real life stuff right here! Hot production, dope lyrics and great message. B.o.B. killin it right now! Classic!

I like the message on this one. The production paints a prediction of a large march... which really sells the point of the song. Tre's verses were real on this, and B.o.B. did well adding his own bit to the message of the song. A wierd beat to rap over, but it definitely works to set the mood...

I was unsure of playboy tre, but this production is pretty sweet, and tre and b.o.b are sharp as hell.
on the note of b.o.b, anybody heard his "born w it" joint? |

Truer words have never been spoken in the 2009 rap game. Honestly - Snoop Dogg leaving Interscope for MTV (announced Tuesday) is proof that artists realize they do not need to follow the industry standard set in yesteryears. Nice work, Tre.

They hit on a topic I feel really strong about, the way society is and the whole conformity issue, brings me back to the old future movies where there are hundreds of thousands staring at a screen all marching, except we arent on a screen we are in reality, the media is the screen. society must turn against that or we are forever doomed, great song good beat pretty informative too, not many songs teach you things, this does

Dang that beat is just plain out silly. Love the concept of being your own artist and doing what you do. Tre has a nice flow. Liking B.o.B on this track to love I'll be in the Sky. Cant wait for his album to drop.

Ah, what a sick beat.
BabyBoi95 strikes again with another sick beat. The lyrics and beat production really make this an extraordinary song to hear. |

B.O.B. verse reminds me of 3000's verse on "Git Up, Git Out", sharp, outside the box, and to the point. The future looks good with these two in it.

ON POINT!!!!!!!!!!!! this is my kind of music right here. Finally once again we have artists that are actually speaking about something worth talking about and reaching people, instead of the garbage that being put out
