PROS:
The electronic trap beat is very creative, sinister and creates a dark atmosphere that permeates throughout the entire track. From the simple & driving drums to the ghostly bells and powerful 808s, this is one of my favorite instrumentals I’ve heard Proj3ct 3vil hop on.
Proj3ct 3vil’s delivery is incredibly engaging and compliments the beat perfectly: his voice sounds unique, his different vocal inflections display a lot of emotion, his diverse flows are very energetic and his lyrics are complex and visual (even bordering on abstract in certain sections).
The vocal snippets add a lot to the soundscape of the track.
CONS:
· The vocals would benefit from a bit of a boost on the higher frequency spectrum.
· The outro feels a bit too dragged out.
· Some lyrics are a bit hard to interpret
FAVORITE PART: 1:12 – 1:45
FINAL THOUGHTS:
Overall, “GRANDiO$3” manages to capture and maintain a very unique dark & dreamy atmosphere in a relatively short runtime.
I absolutely love Proj3ct 3vil’s voice and delivery, and this marks one of my favorite tracks he’s released so far.
