New York’s Andre Lawrence has shared a new album, titled Dustrial Denim. Produced entirely by fellow NYC standout Arlo Walker, Dustrial Denim is a poignant, sleek collection of observant East Coast hip-hop tracks that blend classic 90’s boom bap influences with refreshing twists.
“Dawn (Intro)” is an expansive, vivid intro that acts as Lawrence’s mission statement- as he paints pictures with his lyricism atop Walker’s layered soul sampling. “Lo Definition” follows up next with a rugged, yet crystalline, track with a laid-back nostalgic feel and charm. The wistful keys and relatable verses of “Mind’s Good” draws the listener in immediately- while “Rich”‘s smoky, jazz-laced soundscape and potent vocals make it a highlight from Dustrial Denim.
