CRITIC REVIEWS

HipHopDX

Like most rappers built for this generation, Xan is more an entertainer than an MC — a partier more than a poet.

XXL

What makes Total Xanarchy shaky is also what makes for an honest debut. Sure, there are moments of redundancy and filler songs that could have been left on the cutting room floor. But a lot of music on this album is fresh, exciting and a sign of the changing times.

Pitchfork
On his debut album, the standard-bearer of the sad-rap movement refuses to reveal much in the way of emotion at all, aside from a kind of sullen, conflicted defiance.

Tiny Mix Tapes

XANARCHY is hindered by homogeneity more than anything else.

NME

Stretched to a full album’s worth of material, Xan’s music, like a certain branded prescription drug, quickly tires those with little tolerance.

The Guardian

Thanks to his misogyny and fondness for cliche, the 21-year-old rapper has absolutely no good lyrics on his debut album.

Y’all sleepin on my boy Lil Xan. Say what you want about him but he is surprisingly the first person EVER to have a negative IQ! It’s insane how that’s even possible

My grandpa once stuck his hand into a blender while it was turned on. He squealed in pain, and he collapsed to the ground. He would've eventually died from blood loss, so he decided to give me his last words, "Lil Xan did this to me. You must avenge me." Well, I didn't like that old geezer, he used to get me a box of rocks every Christmas. Just to spite him, I think I'll give this a 100... yeah.

I will carve my genitals with a rake long before I listen to this bottom of the barrel dog shit.
