At the beginning I have to admit that the review was not published earlier, because it simply flew near my nose. In normal circumstances, I immediately check the premieres of top Polish rappers, and the last rings Okiego and Otsochodziewith whom Young Igi creates a group OIO They were definitely one of the best publishers that the scene offered us last year. Igi also released the album “Exclusive hunger”which, although the quality slightly deviated from the aforementioned two, still offered quite a lot of cool winding and well -chosen bits. Less than a year later, we received another material that simply flew near my nose without much interest.
How did Young Igi manage to “Mixtape’s Love Shape”?
On the mixtape they are responsible for production again Sergius and 2Kwith which Igi also prepared the previous studio album. From this place, hats with heads for both men. All bits flow very agile and in an elegant way stick the material into the whole. Sound consistency is definitely a very big plus “Mixtape love shape”however, the problem here is the performance of Igie, which leaves a lot to be desired.
Despite the intra -extractive texts about the subject of broadly understood love – from romantic to one that connects the rapper with fans, the material is wound very average. There is a lack of catchy melodies and energy that would reflect the complexity of the subject.
It is a gift from a rapper for fans, released quite unexpectedly, because only 9 months after the album “Exclusive hunger”which in my opinion was quite good (although there were already problems more highlighted in the new material). Igi spends a lot of music, but this does not translate into more experiments with sound or flow. Pieces like“I want to grow”, “AGREEMENT” Whether “Not from this land” They are correct, but it’s hard not to feel the impression that something is missing in all this, that I have already heard it somewhere and although the head is rocking to the bit, something does not allow me to suck fully in this music.
Young Igi from being the latest trapper went to the release of quite average creativity, as if he was slowly ending with ideas, which can also be seen in numbers. Although I like him very much and I think that he did a lot for the Polish trap scene, it seems to me that he reached the moment when he should take a break, disappear for a moment and return with the material that will sweep all the others from the board. At the moment, I have nothing else to do but forget about the “shape of the mixtape love”, which, although tragic was not tragic, left a lot of disappointment.
