LUCKI • Freewave 3
Already an established digital underground legend, at just 22 years-old, LUCKI has had his fair share of setbacks and resurgences. Yet his latest escape from personal turmoil, by way of his newest album Freewave 3, is arguably the rapper’s most notable to date.
Featuring 15 songs mostly inspired by an agonizing break-up and the stress that comes with the expectations behind his prodigious talent; LUCKI bares his broken heart, permeating his emotions through a relapse-fueled, melancholic lens. The album finds LUCKI staring into the abyss of his grieving spirit while adamantly striving to be honest.
With production by the likes of ChaseTheMoney, Earl Sweatshirt, Brent Rambo and Mulatto Beats, Freewave 3 is a blend of heavy, trunk-rattling and mesmerizing sounds that emulate the controlled chaos presented by the Chicago native.
On his ninth project, LUCKI is painstakingly earnest (“perks really hurt my stomach, but that’s how I feel free”) but ultimately crafts a captivating reminder of his relentless drive to move forward.
