Rising a decade in the past off his debut mixtape Observe the Lyte, he later signed to the Insane Clown Posse’s very personal Psychopathic Data on New Yr’s Day 2017 & put out his debut EP Psychopathic MonStar that summer season following the 18th annual Gathering of the Juggalos in Oklahoma. He amicably departed couple years later so as to concentrate on constructing his personal label MonStar Leisure & turning into a father, returning over 2 & a half years in the past for the debut album Metamorphosis demonstrating his private & creative progress. MonStar has since developed right into a roster of its personal, coming off a showcase EP to return Full Drive.
“Dying Breed” begins with this wavy entice instrumental from Str8jaket speaking about his variety shrinking close to to the purpose of extinction whereas “Really feel the Manner I Do” works in some pianos & strings asking if there’s anybody who feels the very same method as he does. “Time Will Inform” that includes Ant G finds the two over a entice instrumental reassuring everybody that they’re nowhere close to near being accomplished main into “Made a Lot” speaking in regards to the cash, sacrifices & errors he’s made.
In the meantime on “Again in My Head”, we’ve got Lyte exhibiting off a speedier circulate over one other entice beat combating again till they bury him simply earlier than “Full Deck” that includes Skitzo brings the pair collectively to allow them to speak about everybody fuckin’ with the unsuitable ones. “This Us” fuses digital dance music & entice giving 0 fucks in anyway, however then “Model New” that includes Challenge Born aggressively speaking about folks appearing that actual method.
“It’s Our Time” hooks up some pianos & hi-hats discussing that it’s MonStar Leisure’s time to shine now whereas “OMG” that includes Str8jaket talks about needing God of their lives for the time being even when they’re not the praying sort. The music “Disarray” that includes Stray grimly guarantees God sure issues gained’t occur once more if He helps them & “Reminiscences” that includes Str8jaket is a 6-minute nearer breaking down the best way he desires to be remembered.
Metamorphosis was a strong debut giving the underground a take a look at how a lot Lyte has modified on all fronts ever since signing to Psychopathic for a yr & a half, which Full Drive surpasses by way of high quality. The manufacturing nearly completely dealt with by Str8jaket elevates the entice sounds from 2 & a half years in the past, the visitors are lowered to MonStar’s present roster apart from a pair exterior collaborators & Lyte himself sounds hungrier.
