The last handful of years as seen the quick rise for the man-of-many-hats, Kenny Beats and it?s for good reason. He has risen through the ranks as one of the greatest modern producers. On ?Louie? we see Kenny play around with some plunderphonics style instrumental hip hop beats and to be honest it is some extremely solid tracks. For such a short album he hits you over the head with a smorgasbord of samples and styles. If you like The Avalanches you will feel right at home with this album. That brings up my only negative the amount of Avalanches influence is quite distracting, but otherwise this is an extremely great record that covers a lot of bases. Hopefully this continues to grow Kenny Beats brand and he continues to see success into the far future!
