Nav - Nav

ive lived with this album for the past two years. listening to this album is truly a transformative experience. The album has the ability to build these psychedelic environments for each of its tracks to exist in. In large part I think this is due to NAV’s ability as a producer and less to do with his rapping ability. Which brings me to the reason I was so hesitant to review this album. A lot of rap fans don’t like this album due to NAV’s rapping ability and his vocal performance. While those are both legitimate hindrances to the album, I’d be disingenuous if I said I still didn’t enjoy it. NAV’s delivery is stiff and robotic and the occasional cliche lines do take you out of the experience of the album (shoot a 30 no curry). But in a very strange sense I feel like this almost adds to the character of the album. NAV’s delivery has a very interesting contrast to the atmospheric beats he raps on and the corny lines add a sense of humor. Overall, a very good listen Favorite tracks: - Myself (the outdo is heavenly) - My mind - Nav (Nav by Nav on Nav[the album]) - Some way (Justin beiber diss track) - Up
