It’s been a little while since we last heard from Kyoto-based musician Native Rapper, with a few scattered features and live performances painting the broader picture for the last year. That all changed today, however, with the release of their long-anticipated latest album “TRIP” via TREKKIE TRAX earlier today. Available now via all major services, let’s take a look at Native Rapper’s multi-genre infused latest below:
From the get-go Native Rapper’s latest had a whole lot going for it. Being one of the bigger releases from TREKKIE TRAX so far this year, there was definitely a level of personal anticipation to see just what everyone had been cooking up. Unsurprisingly, “TRIP” did not disappoint at all. Filled to the brim with memorable tracks and iconic collaborations, I don’t see myself putting down this record anytime soon.
On top of the digital distribution of the album, TREKKIE TRAX are also dropping a sweet physical CD edition over on their website. Priced at 2,000 yen, the CD comes complete with all thirteen tracks, as well as some CD-exclusive bonus goods. I’m personally hoping for a vinyl release in the near future, so here’s hoping something happens on that front.
