As with all of Lil Yachty’s tapes to date, ‘Michigan Boy Boat’ is fast on ideas and entertainment. He remains very stylised, though – if you like that style, fine, but there are few concessions.

The mixtape struggles when the focus shifts to Yachty. He doesn’t have Mike’s commanding voice or Rio’s recklessness, the laid-back swag of Babyface Ray or the out-of-pocket insanity of YN Jay.

Hmmm, a new Lil Yachty tape, let’s see what he has in store for us!
“I wanna put my dick in Kali Uchis”
*immediately turns off the tape*
(Also yes this is based on a true story)
As a Detroiter, I feel a sense of dissatisfaction with Lil Yachty making a mixtape about me.
