New Orleans rapper Fendi P, part of Jet Life, returns to releasing solo material about a year after his collaborative project with Currensy.
This tape features 13 short tracks for a total of 44 minutes, which doesn't seem like a long time, but here it is. "Game Recognize Game" is an interesting opening: annoying and frantic snare drum, rhythm is inexplicably let to breathe, then another dry and hard downtempo drum to support the effortless and very slow relaxed delivery of rappers Jet Life Fendi P and Fiend. A monotonous joint with boom bap trap follows, then "NBF", where a snare drum contrasts a horn sample: the union of these two completely different sounds somehow carries on the inspired delivery of Fendi P.
Nonetheless, the album, already generic in its first moments, immediately collapses with ten tracks all the same, with the same annoying snare drum, weak samples and slow rapping without effort. In the central part of the project, a sample from "The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly" is abused by a snare drum. There's also Wiz Khalifa, who has been in the "money-shower mode" for over ten years, here without inspiration. The rest is boring noise until the last two tracks, when two boom bap trap rhythms are proposed on which Fendi P delivers effortlessly and hardcore, respectively. During these forty minutes, he never impresses or delivers anything truly memorable, his record is easily forgettable. 3/10.
