I love the growing trend of producers taking the reigns and releasing their own albums. Considering that they are the ones largely pushing the genre, ushing in new sounds and styles, it’s only right they get the spotlight every once and while. It’s not an easy art form to master, however, as it’s easy for the producer’s voice to get lost amongst the sea of features that accompany the instrumentals.
Well, Atlanta producer/songwriter, Flwr Chyld found the perfect balance on his new Iridescent Luv and earned his first Lyrical Lemonade feature in the process! Though he doesn’t sing himself, Flwr Chyld makes his voice heard with some stellar warm, R&B-leaning production. Despite a different voice (or three), on each track — all of whom do a great job of complimenting the producer’s sound — the project flows perfectly and feels cohesive thanks to the texture and bounce Chyld puts in his boardwork.
Iridescent Luv is a nice summer listen, and a good intro to a producer who I’m excited to see more from whether in the spotlight or in someone else’s credits; I have a feeling he’ll be getting some work after this one.
