Member of popular rap group Migos, Quavo, takes matters in his own hands and goes solo with his new album Quavo Huncho.
After an underwhelming release of Culture II nine months earlier that didn’t receive good feedback, Quavo is back. He started off strong with “Biggest Alley Oop” as the intro track. The track had a well produced unorthodox beat that set the album off on a strong foot. The other noticeable tracks were, “Rerun (feat. Travis Scott)” and “Lose It (feat. Lil Baby).” “Rerun” had an ominous vibe that has become a trademark for Travis. They used an immense amount of auto-tune, but they used it well. It didn’t sound like they needed it. It sounded like they used it as a tool to expand the sound. The track with “Lil Baby” was an okay track until “Lil Baby” came in and elevated the song to be one of the highlights of the album.
The album is far from perfect. Most tracks just sounded average, if not worse. Most songs in the middle of the project just sounded like he copy pasted the same line over and over again. The unique sound that the Migos started, largely in part to Quavo, was lost and he just sounded like a mediocre artist with a good production team. He sounded like he didn’t try to make good music he tried to make good money. If that was his goal he achieved it. Quavo Huncho sold 99,000 copies and charted second on the Billboard Top 100 list.
Quavo’s solo debut Quavo Huncho was a bottom tier album of the year. Other than some highlight features that carried their songs it wasn’t good. A repetitive flow and lack of creativity made the album feel flat. The album receives a 4/10.
