Danny Brown

Back in 2011, Detroit rapper Danny Brown turned heads with his gap-tooth smile, flamboyant rockstar outfits, graphic lyrics, and sharp storytelling. Now that he\u2019s closing in on 40, Brown has drastically changed his appearance. He\u2019s healthy, fixed his infamous tooth gap, and no longer rocks skinny jeans that\u2019d cost the average person their monthly rent. Despite all this, his music remains extraordinary.<\/p>\n

His fifth album, uknowhatimsayin\u00bf<\/i>\u2014which was produced by Q-Tip\u2014boasts all of the absurd characteristics of a Brown album, but through its tone it occupies a unique space in his discography. In his lyrics, Brown still reflects on the drug-fuelled lifestyle that almost killed him; however, uknowhatimsayin\u00bf<\/i> is largely an optimistic album. Tracks like \u201cBest Life\u201d and \u201cShine\u201d discuss Brown\u2019s once-bleak lifestyle but communicate that he\u2019s never been happier.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Through a newfound attitude and sound, uknowhatimsayin\u00bf<\/i> abandons the downward-spiral storylines present on his last album, 2016\u2019s Atrocity Exhibition<\/i>, and allows Brown to hone his talents as a reflective comedic genius.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
