This is a totally chill, instrumental hip-hop release, good for sitting around having a drink but not feeling like a cheeseball. That's because the music, while being chill deejay music, still has a level of sophistication which makes it interesting, progressive, and challenging. There are a lot of trippy, fun clips of girls' voices involved, as well as layers of sliding, trumpety sounds. But most importantly, nothing gets out of control here, due to the album's very tame, controlled, and elegant beats. - Portland Mercury |
