Fivio Foreign: B.I.B.L.E
Favorite Track(s): On God, Through the Fire, City of Gods, What's My Name, Hello
Opinion/Review: Not sure if without Pop Smoke, Fivio would be who he is today, but due to Pop Smoke... we have Fivio Foreign. I was excited to listen to this album, but it wasn't 100% what I was expecting. It gave me the energy and drill sound that I was looking for, yet, on the other end of the spectrum, it sounded very polished. Which, to be frank, should be of no surprised when your album is executive produced by Kanye West. Be that as it may, I was looking for a grittier or muddier caliber of sound to the album. Still, I enjoyed the fact that for the entire album, Fivio didn't deviate from the drill sound. Instead, he invited artists and production into his world and had them conform to his sound. Also, he has shown that the drill sound does not have to be harsh, it can be soft and something vibey for the women. Overall, this album is very enjoyable and something to vibe to when in and out of NY.
