Nov 4, 2022This new album, then, is the perfect piece of fan service. It’s Aubrey on the mic, 21 Savage in full flow.

The foes that punctuate their bars are well-worn – less talented adversaries trying to gain clout; love interests who leech on their wealth and prestige – and while it’s nice to hear Drake unleashed, at times 21 Savage can feel like a passenger.

Sometimes, like on “Spin Bout U,” they successfully melt into something greater than their parts.
