Review

Jelani Aryeh's 'I've Got Some Living To Do' is like a rookie's breakout season - unexpected, exciting, and full of promise. This 2021 release packs a punch in just 37 minutes, with 12 tracks that explore the ups and downs of young adulthood. Aryeh's vocals are the star player here, carrying the emotional weight of the album with a vulnerability that's hard to ignore. The production, courtesy of Jack Kolbe, keeps things simple, letting Aryeh's voice and lyrics shine like a well-executed play.

Musically, this album is a mixed bag of tricks, blending indie rock, folk, and pop elements. It's like watching a versatile athlete who can play multiple positions on the field. Aryeh's storytelling game is strong, tackling themes of identity and relationships with the honesty of a post-game interview. 'I've Got Some Living To Do' feels like a playbook for anyone in their early twenties, trying to figure out their next move in the game of life. Game Plan: This album is best enjoyed during a solo road trip, when you're ready to do some serious self-reflection. - Peter
