| 4.0 excellent | Bedex | May 5th 20 |
Really dug this. The first track got me especially excited. I love the mood, the rhythmic
weirdness, the jazzy instrumentation, the non-English sounding Wolof bits mixed into the
English rapping, with voices that I enjoy. In general the improvy jazzy tracks like 2, 4 or
9 are the ones I enjoyed most, while darker tracks like 3 or 6 didn't convince me as much.
5 is dark too but does it better. Beyond jazz and rap, the album has even more variety and
takes an electronic turn at the end of 6 and on the deranged 7. A strong album, I need more
of it. 3.9

Ok this is the kinda shit I love. It's like jazz rap, but with shifting rhythms, electro-acoustic harmonies, and contemporary sound design (this last sentence is taken from bandcamp). Its uniqueness also comes from how it blends English and Wolof together. In the end, it's not really jazz, as the main focus is how the beats evolve thanks to the dynamic drumming. It's weird stuff, if a little obtuse at times. I dig that.
