Task: Sentiment Analysis
Input (English): Pulling For The Real Rocky On Next Album . I am originally from The Land of Ten Thousand Lakes myself (and there's a hell of a lot more than ten thousand lakes, by the way).  I am also a musician, singer, and writer of a "country roots" perspective (who now lives 40 min. outside NYC), who understands how crappy the business can be.     My biggest complaint about Rockie, my fellow Minnesotan, is simply this:  He and his music don't sound like they come from Minnesota, nor Carolina (his birthplace, am I correct?), and lotsa' good country music comes from these two regions.  I mean, this record is produced well and sounds generally good, but he sounds like someone who is taking the advice of all the jackasses from Nashville who say, "Ya' gotta' sound like this and look like this; 'cause that's what works down here, plain and simple!"      Well, I think that theory is gonna' die sooner than later.  You gots guys like Djerks Bently and Eric Church who are still not exactly where country needs to be, but they are making a slight dent in the "soccer-momming" of country music.      Wanna' hear good country music?  Check out 10 City Run!  They are what CMT should be airing, and they are getting airplay on "Wide Open Country" (seriously, check out this band, and my review of them--10 City Run--for they're the real frickin' deal).     So Rockie, my friendly advice would be this: drop the affected, mainstream, country radio accent (don't replace it with a hard-core Minnesota accent, however--Fargoooo--no good), get a band that plays more than one kind of country music, and draw on the great history of music that has come from Minnesota (Jayhawks, Replacements, even Marvin Rainwater, oh, and that Bob Dylan-dude) and Carolina (too many influences to even start!) 'cause that's you, man! That's where you're from! That's how you'll sound genuine (as the one reviewer noticed how at times you seemed to be trying too hard, other times, not hard enough)!  My theory: Your hearts not in it!      You have tremendous talent and I'm pulling for you, the next album, and the Vikings--the last, more reluctantly each year.
