Wilma Vritra has always been an interesting group in the abstract and experimental hip hop space because of how sparse and ?lazy sounding? their music comes off. But there is a charm and appeal to that style, look at how huge and breathtaking Earl Sweatshirt has become. On their new album ?Grotto? we see them taking some very classical and jazzy instrumental backdrops and rapping about space and mythology. Although the album might be dry for some, it can be an enticing listen when you really sit down with it. But for others, it can be a little too boring to sit through because of how slow and campy the project is.
