Lav's Music Corner

Vince Staples is a California rapper who first emerged more than a decade ago and has bounced between being a critical darling and cult like rap artist in the years since. Ramona Park  is Vince's 4th or 5th album depending on who you ask, though some of the EP's in his discography are just as acclaimed and popular releases. Ramona Park Broke My Heart  is a sister album of sorts matching Vince's self-titled project last year.  Review By Lav: I've been a Vince Staples fan for quite a long time, but that doesn't always manifest itself with unanimous praise. I absolutely loved his debut album Summertime 06'  but as we work through his discography to the most experimental but inconsistent Big Fish Theory , then the short and simple summer tape FM!  and finally to last years kind of forgettable Vince Staples , it feels like there's a downward trend. While I wasn't crazy about these singles I was still anticipating them to forecast a step in the right direction...
