There’s a singsongy, nursery rhyme quality to the Boss Hippy song “Dandelion In the Chop” which brings to mind the likes of Outkast and even, at times, De La Soul. True to his name, Boss Hippy appears to be in this to have fun. His vibe is one of joy and musical freedom, which bring with it the swagger of a man unconstrained by traditional genre boundaries. The song “The Rapper” starts with a piano loop which lends the song an air of melancholy, to its immense benefit. Then “Get Out Of My Head” is a therapeutic, jaunty couple of minutes that is both thought provoking and calming. It’ll be fascinating to see where his vision takes him from here.
