Review

Alright, here’s the lowdown on Brent Faiyaz's new album, "Larger Than Life." Released in October 2023, this record is like a fresh wave, signaling a big shift in his career. Faiyaz dives deep into his personal vibes, giving us a front-row seat to his romantic and intimate escapades. The guy’s words cut through, raw and real, making the whole album feel like it’s ripped straight from a diary. It's as if he's riding the perfect wave of vulnerability and confidence, blending themes of self-love and the craziness of fame without losing his cool.

“Larger Than Life” really shows off Brent’s ability to blend a mix of influences, from Curren$y and Lil Wayne rap flows, to the soul of Curtis Mayfield and spoken word of Gil Scott-Heron. The album is a smooth ride through diverse musical terrains. Plus, his creation of ISO Supremacy, is pretty rad, letting him keep artistic control while helping out fellow creatives. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just surfing the radio waves, this album's positive and authentic vibe is like a breath of fresh air in his discography. - Derek
