Fated draws you in, and encapsulates a range of euphoric sounds, leaving you much lighter on the other side.
Fated, in other words, is Chung’s case for himself as one of hip-hop’s preeminent modern minimalists, and the results are frequently sublime.
The album flows easier than Drift and Home, yet it somehow comes off as comparatively fragmentary, with 15 tracks playing out in just over half an hour.
Fated is limited in scope, frustratingly laconic, and—as befits a journeyman— somewhat derivative, but it's never boring.
The trick with the fork and the knife may attract our attention but the musical content of his third album has abandoned most of its vital links, ending in repeating dehydrated patterns.
I actually really like this album! I feel like over time nosaj thing has kind of drifted away from his experimental nature and just created more dry music but this is the one exception to that because I find this heavily enjoyable despite the short length.
