No more vaporwave, no more innocence. This time, Yung Lean chose to push forward his worrisome (ugly adjective ngl) vibe by letting his industrial influences take the lead. It's still mainly cloudy trap rap, but this time the dreamy atmosphere brought by the eccojams is replaced by mechanical waves (fortunately the Nintendo synths are not gone, yay). Lyrically, it's typical Yung Lean: drugs and depression still make the bulk of the lyrical content. This one takes much more risks than its predecessors, but although I laud renewal, this isn't my fav Yung Lean iteration.

Anyone who is complaining about his flow/delivery/cadence clearly has never seen or heard what a guy off some Xan's is like. Anyways, Leandoer has rebounded in a great way from the inconsistent Unknown Memory. The beats here are so druggy and dreamy, so spacious and atmospheric, that it sets up Yung Lean very well for his trademark barred out, slurry flow. The combination of these two aspects is what makes Warlord aesthetically gratifying. To illustrate how well the aesthetic is done, I actually fell asleep listening to this a few times. I mean that in the best way possible, of course, as the effects of both the production and Yung Lean's delivery are pretty relaxing, intoxicating even on the best tracks. And even though he sounds disinterested, this is actually his most focused effort so far in all aspects. Thus, this really is Yung Lean's best project so far, and an excellent, atmospheric cloud rap album.
