In the midst of Chance the Rapper’s infectious bounce and Chief Keef’s fearsome drill, it’s refreshing to hear Mick Jenkins, a Chicago rapper who doesn’t rely on either sheer exuberance or shocking rawness. Instead, Jenkins simply pairs acerbic lyrics analyzing his generation’s condition with a harsh flow and a booming, visceral voice. The result is utterly unforgettable.
