I’ve never really given Tyler much of a chance before. This is clearly a strong modern hip-hop album, with jazz woven through the production, that deserves its place on the list, but for me ,(likely down to personal taste), it doesn’t quite tick the boxes. I tend to prefer the more aggressive, politically charged edge of something like To Pimp a Butterfly in this space, rather than the laid-back, introspective feel that dominates here. It’s a well-made album that I’m glad I heard, but not one I feel much pull to return to.
