First time listening to Vince, outside of Señorita, and I have to say, I haven't seen such a quasi-mainstream debut since LiveLoveAsap and So far gone. Seems to have that game-changing vibe to it.
I think Surf, Norf Norf, and Summertime are the truly outstanding songs. Norf Norf just sounds like nothing I've ever heard before, and credit to Vince, he seems to ride these darker beats quite well. I see him as a rap-version of the Weeknd - they both have similar vibes in their exploration of darker themes and tones - that Señorita video is something only a true psychotic mind could conjure up and actually follow through with.
Will be listening intently as he continues on this trajectory, hope he manages to continue with this questioning of priorities in gang culture...and see if he can make something as cohesive as this project - but with a little more polish in his rhymes...
''What's the price for a life in this dark world?''
''Either build or destroy, what you going for?''
''
What means the world to you?
Is it a fast life, money and clothes?
Probably fukkin' these hoes
Or what would you murder for?
Will your name hold weight when the curtains close?''
