Album Review: Remi - Raw X Infinity

StarStarStarStar

Political references rub shoulders against pop culture references; all the while REMI wears his heart on his sleeve, and it’s immensely enjoyable.

If, as a rule, you steer clear of “the hype”, then on this occasion I say you should put your ginger-mocha-soy-gluten-free-chai-latté  down and pay attention to the billboards: REMI is smooth as fuck and Raw X Infinity is damn good. There's no grand posturing, there's no pop-a-cap-in-yo-ass gangster bullshit. Instead, witness brilliant verses, raw and untempered production and the exuberance of a young MC putting every ounce of his soul into a record.
