Album Review: slowthai - TYRON
“TYRON traces a more or less direct decline in ego from its start to its end – and the artist’s appeal increases in direct correlation with that, finishing on the strongest material he’s yet released. Political unrest in the UK has only increased since he put out Nothing Great About Britain in 2019, and some might be disappointed that this follow-up doesn’t continue that Boris-bashing mode. The most cynical might say that this is an album-length PR move to rehabilitate his image. But TYRON feels like a necessary release for the controversial rapper.”
I was asked to review TYRON, the second album from controversial British rapper slowthai, and I found myself getting quite sucked into it. Read my full review over on The Quietus.
