Big Fish Theory

Vince Staples

A cold, metallic fusion of Detroit techno and West Coast rap. Sharp lyricism meets aquatic, industrial production for a high-energy, claustrophobic club experience.

June 23, 2017 · Def Jam Recordings (2)

A high-pressure, cold-blooded fusion of club energy and existential anxiety.

Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.

How does Big Fish Theory sound next to the rest of Vince Staples's catalogue?

Electronics/Laptop+4.0σ

The instrumentation foregrounds electronics/laptop far more than the catalogue usually does.
