Genesis

Sun-soaked jazz rap and polished soul-funk. A hazy, introspective debut that trades Odd Future's chaos for velvet grooves and mature self-reflection.

It's like the best parts of a West Coast summer captured in a hazy, soulful hip-hop record.

A warm, sun-drenched reflection that balances laid-back stoner vibes with mature, soulful introspection.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The transition from the heartfelt spoken intro by his mother into the driving rhythm of One Below

Anderson Paak's raspy hook on Dapper lifting the track into a shimmering disco-funk hybrid

The way the beat on Go (Gas) hits with a sharper, more aggressive edge compared to the surrounding haze
