Review

"The Reaper" stands out as one of keshi's most emotionally raw works, blending his signature dreamy falsettos with smooth, soulful singing across its four tracks. Released in 2018, this EP creates a unique sound landscape that moves beyond traditional lo-fi hip-hop by incorporating elements of hip-hop with his soothing melodies. The progression from the melancholic opening title track to the sunnier notes in "2soon" takes listeners on a carefully crafted emotional journey, showcasing his versatility as both producer and vocalist.

I've always appreciated how keshi captures the essence of heartbreak and loss in such a relatable way on this project. Tracks like "like i need u" bring in those early 2000s R&B influences that give the album additional depth and nostalgia. What makes "The Reaper" so special is how it balances darker themes with beautiful production, creating something that feels both intimate and universal. The EP really established keshi's ability to blend poignant introspection with captivating melodies that stay with you long after listening. - Erika
