Kota the Friend – Everything [LP]

The album Everything from Brooklyn based rapper Kota The Friend gets across a fresh, coming-of-age feeling that is rarely heard in hip-hop music. Where Brooklyn emcees are noted for steadily bringing a steely “rugged & raw” energy to hip-hop, Everything steps forward with a wide range of moods with sounds that are equal parts nostalgic and ultramodern. Kota and his production team have a talent for blending almost folksy jazz melodies with the frenetic rhythms of drum machines and software synths. It’s like listening to Mac Miller rap over the instrumentals to Black Spade’s To Serve With Love. Standouts cuts include “B.Q.E” (which features Joey Bada$$ and Bas), “Long Beach” (which features Hello O’shay and Alex Banin), and “Always” (which features Kyle and Braxton Cook).
