The first comparison that comes to mind when trying to describe Juiceboxxx’s sound, are the Beastie Boys. While some may simply pass him off as a mere copy cat of the great trio, Juiceboxxx’s music is so much more than just a Beastie Boys ripoff act. His debut album, I Don’t Wanna Go Into the Darkness, is so punk that it immediately transcends into everything but punk. Literally every sort of genre and decade, in some form, is crammed into Juiceboxxx’s album. You’ll hear elements of funk, new wave, electronic, disco, psychedelia, and so, so much more. So really, rather than a comparison to the Beastie Boys, Juiceboxxx’s music seems more appropriate to be compared with N*E*R*D’s work. Much like a majority of N*E*R*D’s catalog, I Don’t Wanna Go Into the Darkness becomes one giant genre breaker, and throws everything into one raw sound that’s made to get a party going. Juiceboxxx’s raps give off pure energy, and his live show must be a completely insane experience. So whether you choose to compare I Don’t Wanna Go Into the Darkness to Beastie Boys or N*E*R*D albums, all that really matters is that you’re already putting Juiceboxxx into the same league as those greats.
