Nuthin' 2 prove

"Nuthin' 2 Prove is why Lil Yachty should not be spitting bars. The best of his music avoids contemporary punchline-obsessed rap in favor of gummy, vibrant new-age euphonies-or at least it kind of does. Each of his releases since his 2016 debut Lil Boat has been conflicted with what makes Yachty pop, parading his lighthearted nursery rhyme raps, that, along with his crimson dreadlocks, have made him a favorite of teen hipsters. When he bellows and trills, regardless of what's actually coming out of his mouth, the results are leagues better than when he tries to do his best rapper impression on songs".

"Fortidens spøgelser bliver ved med at hjemsøge Yachty, der på `Nuthin' 2 Prove' flere gange uden held forsøger sig som trap-rapper over minimalistiske beats. Gæster som Playboi Carti, Offset og Cardi B overstråler rapperen, og når han er alene, drukner han i minimalismen. Men en opblomstring af følelserne, melodierne og kærligheden vender endelig skuden for Yachty, og foreningen med emorappere som Trippie Redd og Juice WRLD kan vise sig at være vindstødet, der skal skubbe Yachty ud af stormen".

"Technically the rhyming entertainer's third album, this is split between what he categorizes as "rap" and "melodic." The first half, supported with productions of austere booming menace, indeed continues with aggravated boasts and threats similar to those heard on Lil Boat 2. Yachty sounds like he's still figuring it out. Among the lowest points is "Riley from The Boondocks," where he favorably likens himself to an animated character who is eight years old and acts as a vehicle for harsh critiques of commercial rap and its effect on impressionable youngsters".
