It\u2019s hard to live up to the expectations when you tease a project for longer than two years. Legions of fans work together like they\u2019re building the Pyramids of Giza, uploading every leak, snippet, or sign of life to archive pages for mass scrutiny. That\u2019s what happened to Destroy Lonely, a 21-year old rapper from Atlanta, Georgia, who just released his debut mixtape, No Stylist<\/em>,<\/em> under Playboi Carti\u2019s Opium label. As required, the release contains enough fashion-related quips to fill up Popeye<\/em>, but the real gems are the lively, euphoric beats. The airy synths of the title track, \u201cNoStylist,\u201d will instantly transport you to an arcade for a round of Asteroids<\/em>. Lonely matches its breeziness with playful lyrics: \u201cTold my folks I\u2019m gettin\u2019 rich, it ain\u2019t no way I\u2019m washin\u2019 dishes,\u201d he raps, which is hilarious to the core. The rest of the album could use more candid moments like this\u2014in 2022, when you can build a loyal following using 30-second snippets, does having a \u201cprestige\u201d album matter? Explore No Stylist<\/em> and find out what side you land on.<\/p>\n

With artists releasing songs at a fast and furious pace, it\u2019s difficult for the average hip-hop head to keep track of it all\u2014no matter how tapped in they are. That\u2019s why we created The Ones, a daily post to highlight the song you need to hear.<\/em><\/p>\n
