Pusha T: DAYTONA (2018) (Hip-hop)

On this mini-album, Pusha T refines his mafioso rhymes in a brief but very cohesive manner. Executively produced by Kanye West, the beats are all tailored excellently to Pusha's aesthetic, dark and luxurious. Like much of the material in Pusha's catalogue expect cocaine raps but this time in a well formulated ominous tone, expressing the power and destruction of drugs within communities. Pusha's deliveries are consistently fierce and sinister and it is apparent he is paving a lane for his solo career that does not care much for contemporary hip-hop cliches.
