Destroy Lonely No Stylist

Rising Atlanta rapper Destroy Lonely drops his debut mixtape No Stylist, an intoxicating collection laced with colorful melodies, unpredictable flows, and endless braggadocio. The electric title cut finds Destroy Lonely pairing audacity with implicit menace for bars that manage to be as confident as they are dismissive. "I don't know that boy, and I can't tell you how he end up missing," he raps over polychromatic keys. On "JETLGGD," Lonely coasts over surreal sonar bleeps for an exhibition in high-rolling, which includes international flings, smoke, drink, and all the other accouterments of a blossoming star. Meanwhile, for "TURNINUP," he seamlessly oscillates between playful flirtation and threats toward his enemies. Fusing his not-so-humblebrags with labyrinthine flows and inventive rhymes, Lonely showcases both musical spontaneity and technical proficiency.
