2019 has been very slow music wise. So far many expected Lil Uzi to release his long-anticipated album “Eternal Atake”, after getting released from his record label contract but it’s been quiet. Many people predicted that Dreamville would release there compilation album but yet again we were disappointed. That’s why Pnb Rock has and very well may end up with a top 5 album this year.
I’m not saying that because the music market has been slow so far, but his album wasn’t overshadowed by everybody else so it can stand out better. This is technical Pnb Rock debut album even though he released many projects prior and his last project “Catch These Vibes” he said was his debut but Atlantic thought different. On “Trapstar Turnt Popstar” Pnb gives you melodically, autotune singing and rapping style that many of his peers use such as Fetty Wap, A-Boogie, Lil Durk. This wave of rapping has the industry on fire right now because almost every up and coming artist sounds like this. So Fetty Wap and Pnb Rock had a major influence on the culture. Now back to the album, the original is laced with 18 tracks while the deluxe comes with an extra 5 tracks. Pnb has features from A Boogie, Tory Lanez, Lil Skies, Roddy Ricch, Youngboy, Lil Wayne, XXXTentacion, and Lil Durk.
Pnb caught a lot of hate for switching his style on his projects but fans will be highly impressed and satisfied with the sound of this album. The Intro track ” Dreamin” sets the tone of the album with Pnb switching between rapping and singer and starting the album off with a banger. Pnb ability to keep the balance between the two is what makes this album that much better. With tracks like “Penny Proud”, “Put You On”, “I Need More”, ” Now or Never 2.0″ are some examples on the album were exhibit that balance. Pnb Storytelling is an underrated ability of his and you realize that on tracks ” Middle Child”, “Nowadays”, “Take My Soul”, and “Evolved”, Pnb tells his come up story. Pnb could cut this album in half and split it between rap and R&B with mood music like ” Choosin”, “My Ex”, “How It Feels”, and “HMP”, give the album that vibe for the girls to get ready too.
This is a very solid project for Pnb Rock, A lot of the features fit perfectly with the track they’re on without outshining Pnb rock. The album has some songs that you have to be in the mood to listen too but for that reason, the project will age well. Pnb picked the perfect time to release his project being as new music so hard to come by currently. You can check out Trapstar turnt Popstar on all major media platforms.
