Despite trap music folding into the sound of mainstream pop, MetroBoomin's new album proves how dynamic and potent the genre is at its core.

The 15-track project re-affirms the potential for new terrain within the trap sound. An 808-dominated soundscape wades and unfurls into different aesthetics on Metro’s skillful whim. Of course, trap music blended with pop music throughout the 2010s, butmanages to feel like a trap album with mass appeal rather than the other way around. Eschewing glossy features, Metro locked in with several frequent collaborators he helped turn into rap megastars over the years.

The project further entrenches Metro’s genius and shows that world-building is possible with trap, a genre too prone to albums that feel like strictly hit-or-miss playlists. Born Leland Tyler Wayne, the St. Louis – born producer already has a slew of collaborative projects under his belt. Including the breakout, where 21 and Offset hurled their threats into the frame of his Halloween-themed canvas. And whileboth falter at points, Metro’s production was never the issue.
