GYYPS’ mixtape ‘Darryl’ is one of the year’s best

 

 

If you haven’t been following the day-to-day of GYYPS for the past year, now is the time to hop on board. Just 6 months after his debut Canoga Park, the LA emcee returns with one of the best tapes we’ve heard in a long time.

From the abrasive qualities of “Mr Skinny” to refined cuts like “Lucy” (feat. Felly) and “Goodnight Irene”, Darryl is a refreshing reminder of how impactful a carefully curated project can be in today’s singles-driven industry. He matches a dark and fiery attitude with revealing lyrics and fitting production to boot; instead of appealing to just the current moment, GYYPS finds lasting value in every song, making this a near perfect tape in my book. One can only imagine what 2016 holds.
