Review

"The Lost Boy" really caught my attention when it dropped in 2019, and honestly, Cordae had me from the first track. While so many artists his age were chasing whatever sound was trending that week, he went in a completely different direction, diving deep into storytelling and real lyricism that reminded me why I fell in love with hip-hop in the first place. The way he tackles themes of growing up, figuring out who you are, and that weird space between being a kid and an adult - it all feels so genuine and relatable. The production work here is seriously impressive too, mixing soulful samples with crisp, modern beats that give his introspective verses the perfect foundation.

What really makes this album special is how Cordae brings in collaborators like Chance the Rapper, Anderson .Paak, and Ty Dolla Sign without letting them overshadow his own voice. Tracks like "Bad Idea" and "RNP" show off his ability to create those instantly memorable hooks that stick with you for days, while "Wintertime" gets vulnerable in a way that's refreshing to hear from someone so young. He's got this rare ability to blend old-school hip-hop respect for wordplay with the energy and innovation of the new generation, and it makes "The Lost Boy" feel like a debut that actually matters. - Sienna
