If Kanye creates a new sound, if Clipping bring the noise, if those no longer with us drop the first ever collaborative mixtape from Heaven, ‘Veteran’ will still be one of, if not the most, substantial hip hop albums of 2018, that’s how damn good it is.

Veteran is sure to be one of the most in-your-face, off-the-wall and creative rap projects of 2018.

It makes for a breathless album, one that takes white-hot riffs and the most distasteful parts of our national politics, chops them up, and somehow scatters them perfectly into place.

Deeply facetious and metaphorical in both lyricism and production, Barrington DeVaughn Hendricks delivers his sophmore release in a drug-infused, contextless presentation. Typically a stoic contrarian, Veteran displays a disturbed and emotionally shattered Hendricks, and we learn that at his deepest and most personal, he's just as enigmatic as all of us. Veteran is a poetic and masterful LP akin to some of the greatest and most reveered hip-hop albums of all time.
POWERHOUSE!
While some cuts on the album could be tossed straight out the window due to how forgettable or unnecessary some songs could come off as... This is still pretty much the most abrasive and off-the-wall experimental album to come out this decade. The Myke C-Town reference put me in a damn coffin, the amount of hilarious quotables packed in this record is astounding.
There's really no way to go wrong with 'Veteran', it's one hell of an indescribable ride that only keeps the listener ... read more
