The crisply cut samples; the deep, laid-back voice; the English accent and false monotony... No doubt about it, this is Loyle Carner. With his third album, titled hugo, the London rapper has stuck with the aesthetic that threw him into stardom in 2017. Though the water might seem still, watch out: this album makes a strong political statement. Especially the track ‘Blood on My Nikes’, which deals with social violence and settling scores, referencing the knife attacks that have plagued the English suburbs ever since the beginning of the 2010s. Loyle Carner plainly explains that the problem is global; that government inaction and implicit segregation are responsible for the situation. At times, it almost feels as if the album is resurrecting Guru on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean (‘Georgetown’). Loyle Carner’s rap is fierce, gently grabbing the listener by the collar, and the album has been crafted with disconcerting closeness and intimacy. He’s familiar with the city at night and restores the mood that makes London rap so special, just like Jeshi does. He’s one of the masters of this sound; a responsibility he’s more than happy to assume. © Brice Miclet/Qobuz
