    NLE Choppa has his sights on the prize, and he’s armed with some career-best material. Without doubt his finest project yet, ‘Cottonwood 2’ pushes NLE Choppa into the upper echelons of Stateside rap. Next stop? The world.

    This album won’t go down as a modern day classic, nor will it slingshot NLE to the top of the charts, but it will give listeners a battery in their back for their next big gym session or block party.

    Cottonwood 2's glimmers of unpredictability are its best parts, and make the more by-the-numbers tracks all the more interesting by offering a contrast.

    “Thug It Out” and “Pretty Brown Eyes” find the wunderkind tempering his energy, modulating his tone without flattening it. Would that he applied that approach to the album’s sprawl and structure too.
