Our Take
Our Take
If you're craving a musical journey that's as unpredictable as a British summer, look no further than ALLTTA's latest offering, "The Upper Hand." This dynamic duo, made up of French turntablist 20syl and Californian rapper Mr. J. Medeiros, serve up a delectable blend of beats and bars that's as refreshing as a cup of Earl Grey.
From the moment the album kicks off with the infectious opener "Connery," you know you're in for a wild ride. 20syl's masterful production is a sonic playground, blending old school hip-hop vibes with futuristic flourishes that keep you on your toes. Meanwhile, Medeiros' sharp lyricism and smooth flow add a layer of depth and introspection that's both captivating and thought-provoking.
Tracks like "That Good Ship" and "Kinsmen" showcase the perfect synergy between the duo, with each element complementing the other to create a cohesive and engaging listening experience. And just when you think you've got them pegged, they throw a curveball with the genre-bending "Baby Baby" – a hauntingly beautiful track that showcases their versatility and creativity.
Overall, "The Upper Hand" is a breath of fresh air in a music industry that can sometimes feel stagnant. ALLTTA have truly outdone themselves with this album, delivering a sonic masterpiece that's as eclectic as it is entertaining. So don your best Union Jack hat, grab a pint of ale, and prepare to be swept away by ALLTTA's musical magic. Cheers!
