On Aug. 25, 16-year-old rapper redveil released his debut album “Niagara.” The project is filled with jazzy, mellow production, and complemented by redveil’s smooth deep voice and creative flows.
The debut album starts out with a great track in “Campbell.” The track’s high pitched guitar licks and driving horns are paired with multiple vocal chops to create the melody. Although the drums are very simple, it gives enough room for redveil to display his technical ability on the track. His deep voice changes flow in what seems like every line. By changing up his style it keeps the track not only interesting but also memorable. Track two is another great track titled “Weight.” The track's angelic vocal chop is layered with simple strings and trap-inspired drums. His flow on the track is more straightforward to follow the two-step high hats and punching kick. There are more highlight tracks throughout the project, for example, “Bad News” with it’s powerful drums and vocals or “Grass,” which features sparkling piano and smooth flow.
The downside of the project comes with his young age. the quality of the recordings isn’t great, but it isn’t horrible either. The whole album was mixed and mastered by Redveil. He did a good job, but not as perfect as a professional would have done. A lot of the features feel forced as well.
Overall, redveil could be a name to look out for in years to come, and a lot of years that is. At only 16 he sounds better and more mature than a lot of established artists. Despite the flaws, the young rapper redveil’s debut album “Niagra” was great and earned an 8.5/10.
