Chill, lofi, abstract and neo-soul influenced jazz rap (that's a longass descriptor eh?). You got a cold? Listen to this 'cause it's soothing and warm (worst analogy i could come up with). What is very interesting is how unique this sounds given how her different influences are already super known and worshiped: lofi hip hop has been booming these days with that weeb girl on YT who's always studying (thx again Jun), neo-soul influences in rap are more common than ever (for example, Sunny Duet intro sounds like a D'Angelo tune), and I don't need to tell you for how long a certain portion of rap has been conscious. But even though NoName was preceded by other people putting some introspection in their lyrics, hers are smart and most importantly poetic, sounding like slam poetry at times, and instantly make her stand out of the crowd of conscious rap. Finally, her delivery oscillates between soulful and playful, and do the job in conveying the emotions the lyrics talk so well about. However, I'd say it's good this is only 33 minutes long, as I feel her sound is altogether not as diverse to go on for 40+ minutes. This uniform soundscape helps bring the chillness, but it also brings an overall monotony. This still is a great lil Spring jam.

I really enjoyed this record. This is the hip-hop form of a marshmallow. It is soft, comfy
and mellow. Strong abstract and soul influences. Both the vocals and instrumentals feel
fresh and innovative. I'm rating it quite high for now, but it may evolve either way -
become a grower, or on the contrary drop in rating after the surprise effect fades. A re-
listen is definitely on the cards. 4.1

noname has an amazing flow and delivery, putting to shame some male rappers out there tbh. not only that, her lyricism is incredibly on point and the prod make wonders for her style, creating a unique female body work defin worth checking out. 4-

This is the epitome of a sweet, sweet, sweet Saturday night at midnight album.

This mixtape wins the award for the most warm fuzzy feelings given to me this year. I can't really explain it, but there's just something about this tape that I absolutely adore. The jazzy instrumentals and beats immediately calm and soothe the listener, with the xylophone-like synths evoking images of childhood toys. Noname's rapping has an air of optimism to it, even when discussing difficult topics like drug abuse, funerals, and abortion. She addresses the guilt of past sins she carries, and how she's learned and grown in the face of them. - FAVORITE TRACKS: Yesterday, Diddy Bop, Reality Check, Freedom, Bye Bye Baby

Nothing on here is as good as her verses on Lost and Drown/Finish Line, but it's hard to recreate perfection. Good lyrics
with chill/samey production.
