4.0 excellent | ajcollins15 | September 5th 23 | When the sophomore album from bedroom RnB artist Puma Blue was announced I was extremely excited for how much I have come to love his debut album. The subtleties of music have always made for an emotional and airy listening experience. Luckily enough he continues to make atmospheric and soul-sucking RnB music again on his sophomore album. Pulling from a lot of different artists from King Krule to classic 90s experimental RnB artists you will get a wide array of ideas and styles. But above all else is the heavy use of jazzy horns and drum fills (more so here than on his debut). The first four tracks on this record are a perfect balance of moody atmosphere and progressive downtempo melodies to get you hooked. Plus the last three tracks close everything out so nicely. It is the middle part of the album that suffers the most here, however. With dull ideas that fizzle into nothing I wish Puma left these out or played with the ideas some more. Still, a great listening experience from front to back and will be on heavy rotation for the rest of the year.
