Larry June & The Alchemist – The Great Escape

Larry June has played his way into becoming one of the top Alchemist collaborators in recent years through his constant availability, iron lung and hustle play after hustle play. »The Great Escape« highlights the duo’s strengths, with June’s classic West Coast delivery standing out the most. Alchemist produces a sequence of omnipresent blaxploitation loopiness and yacht romanticism that constantly seems a bit more timeless than that of other still-active First Ballot Hall Of Famers.
