“Smile” Further Justifies Nick Grant’s Potency (Album Review)

Image
This is the 5th studio LP from Atlanta, Georgia emcee  Nick Grant . Blowing up a decade ago off his debut mixtape  ’88  along with the Epic Records-backed full-length debut  Return of the Cool , his next tape Dreamin’ Out Loud  would prelude the acclaimed  God Bless the Child  produced by Tae Beast of the Top Dawg Entertainment in-house production team Digi+Phonics followed by  Carolina Diaries  &  Welcome to Loveland . I did like  Sunday Dinner  &  I Took It Personal  was a great perspective on the industry itself, but he’s returning with a  Smile  on his face. “Another Classic” hops over an orchestral boom bap beat talking about the realest stepping on business for as long as he lives whereas “Money Problems” works in a chipmunk soul sample so he can break down his experiences with financial issues. “The Algorhythm” featuring Punch incorporates a flute so...

His solo debut extended play Witherman would come out the next fall as did his full-length debut  Cloudy Alibi  in the summer of 2023 & more recently his previous EP  Enjoy the View  this past July, enlisting his crew’s newest in-house producer Charlie Beans to handle all of the beats for Stray’s 3rd EP coming off producing most of James Joyce the Squatch’s 4th album  Discomfort Inn  last month. “Cicada” after the “Change of Plans” intro starts off with an aggressive boom bap instrumental pleading to dig up this world that’s been underground for too long while “Foul Ground” featuring James Joyce the Squatch talks about the difference between them & the rest. “Out Alive” depressively speaks of sleeping under a cypress tree forever & after “Frost Bite” assures it’s ok if one can’t keep up, th...
