Bigg – All Out [Album Review]
Going for a truly massive sound, Bigg delves into a kaleidoscopic rush of color on the stylistic tour de force of “All Out”. From dubstep to EDM to hip-hop with even classical flourishes, production feels flawless. By far the true heart and soul comes from Bigg’s masterful flow, whose commanding lyrical might ties all of it together in a most fantastic fashion. Layer upon layer comes into the mix resulting in a world that feels so danged colorful. Melodies are positively infectious, and the hooks are aplenty throughout.
On the title track “All Out” Bigg sets the atmosphere of the album, with a gargantuan style that overwhelms. A minimal tense style defines the intense “Ha Noi God”. With “Kanye East” Bigg has a particularly fine time messing with Kayne West, creating some rather enjoyable disses alongside a beautiful sample. With “Roll Up Interlude (Ft. Remi-D)” Bigg lets the song unfurl in a dramatic fashion. Dreamy multifaceted layers come into play on the potent spaciousness of “Starving”. Building things up quite masterfully is the fanfare of “Money & Bitches”. Bigg’s lyricism works wonders on the snapshot of a life that flows through “Belong”. Delivered straight from the heart the earnestness of “A Little Longer” serves as the highlight of the album. The funk of “One Day Interlude” gives the track a luxurious quality to it. Ending things on a contemplative, meditative note the soothing optimism of “Late Night, Red Wine & Cigarette Interlude”.
Bigg’s “All Out” goes for a wild, unhinged quality one that shows how powerful rap can be in telling a story of a journey through a whole life.
