The former: Nine Vicious stretching his voice and letting out pterodactyl ad-libs the exact same way Barter-era Young Thug would. Sayso Says, the debut album from 18-year-old Atlanta rapper Che, placed him comfortably in the latter category, synthesizing rough-around-the-edges punch-in rap with Crystal Castles-esque witch house revivalism. On his second album, REST IN BASS, Che mostly abandons that sound, instead creating something like the platonic ideal of a rage rap record. REST IN BASS is defiantly overstuffed, crushing familiar rage ideas together without stalling in one place too long. This precise manipulation of short phrases is a technique he employed on Sayso Says tracks like “Nunca Hacer Cocaina” to emphasize rhythm, but on REST IN BASS, they work as textural overload.
