The WireJun 11, 2020The record works best however when Leandoer wears his heart unashamedly on his sleeve.

May 18, 2020Filled with drug-addled bangers and overcast slow-burns, each track on Starz is cut from a single cloth that veils the ever-evolving future of cloud rap, beginning with the explosive “My Agenda”.

May 18, 2020‘Yayo’ and ‘Butterfly Paralyzed’ both showcase Lean’s ability to graft chrome-plated hooks onto any track he likes. The former is sparse and simple where the latter is full to the point of overload, but both tracks sound like evolved versions of songs you’d hear on the radio – music for a society of cyborgs.

Jul 28, 2020Putting the lyrics aside for the moment I’m willing to say there’s something here. The production goes from spartan and airy to distorted and noisy in a way that makes it feel like industrial trap rap, and his accent plays with your expectations of what the flow should be like. ... Ultimately I must still give a “meh” to the overall presentation, because like many of his U.S. counterparts, Yung Lean’s music relies more on style than substance.
