Earl Sweatshirt / Some Rap Song

2018 Black Music Best No.14

Earl Sweatshirt / Some Rap Song

Earl Seatshirtの3年ぶり、3作目のCD。15曲全てが1-2分で、これを切れ目なく繋いでいるので、強く印象に残る曲が無く、ゆるっと始まって、いつの間にか終わっている感じのアルバム。自分的にはちょっと苦手な人ではあるが、今回あまりダークな印象はなく、ファンキーなTrackが多いので、今までで一番聴きやすい。ゆるめのRapは、語りかけるようで抑揚があまりないのが特徴的。Lyricは亡くなった父親に捧げた内省的なもの。自己Produce多数で宅録でもあり、引き続きパーソナルな作品となっている。
