2013 nappyafro Awards: Albums of the Year

Old

Danny Brown – Old
Released: October 8, 2013 ~ Reviewed: October 11, 2013 (4 Stars)

Old is definitely an album that takes time to sink in. And to be completely honest, if you’re not a huge Danny Brown fan, this record is not going to help. If you’re a fan of Danny, then you’ll most likely love it. Overall, Danny was very impressive lyrically. He gives us a look at what he’s gone through (streets, dealing, etc.) and what’s he currently going through (drugs, depression, etc.). At times, he’ll be going in on a more Hip-Hop sounding record, and other times, he’ll be going off on some outer space shit. Regardless, it works. – Arkitekt (Excerpt from the Danny Brown – Old Review)
