criticism

From the point of view of the editor Stefan Johannesberg, Travis Scott acts “ as an incidentally trap-rapping mix of P. Diddy-Style and Kanye-claustrophobia and megalomania. This is how the rapper designed the album “ as a kind of open mic and source booth for the invited guests. "While Scott himself" [set] the framework and [...] with his brand, the introverted synth corset, autotune offset verses and hook ideas for the necessary coolness ", he usually turns the" spotlight [...] on other rappers, singers and producers in the room ”. With Through The Late Night the best "was track of his new album " in collaboration with Kid Cudi. Producer Cardo designed “ a delicate beat that looped into the brain with hypnotic synth flutes and Kid Cudi croon [e] inimitable melodies over it. "André 3000 shows with" a two-line [on The Ends ] that goes deeper than whole books "that he is one of the" greatest poets in rap ".
