Elevation

50 /100
Foothills
Higher than 23% of albums we've rated

The album blends various styles effectively but lacks depth for long-term engagement.

What we noticed

  • The album opens with a brief intro before diving into high-energy tracks that maintain a fast tempo throughout the first half.
  • Several tracks feature rapid shifts in musical style, incorporating eclectic samples and playful vocal snippets that contribute to a chaotic atmosphere.
  • The last few tracks slow down the pace significantly, creating a contrast with the earlier frenetic energy.
