The Kid LAROI - THE FIRST TIME

Across 20 tracks, The Mid Laroi reaches for emotional sensibility but ends up toneless and phlegmatic. The highlights, other than 'BLEED', are typical trap/hip-hop tracks, such as 'WHAT'S THE MOVE?' featuring Future and BabyDrill which ostentatiously brags about sex, women, drugs and money. On the other hand, interludes including 'STRANGERS' and the equally tedious 'STRANGERS PT 2' aim for vulnerability and revelation but are unfortunately devoid of this - maybe it's the ostentatious bragging that Laroi does best, and if this album was sliced in half on that logic it might, perhaps, be acceptable
