Levi Watson has been rapping for pretty much his whole life. His first release of 2019 may serve as a coming-out party for the young emcee with his new single “Venus Envy.” This is one case where you could judge a book by its cover or let’s say a song by its album art would be more appropriate. When I look at the cover art I start to envision and anticipate futuristic vibes to come from this song. Those are exactly the kind of sounds Levi is delivering on “Venus Envy.” If you were to revisit Watson’s prior projects ‘No Love Lost, Vol 1’ and ‘No Love Lost, Vol 2’ this new single remains on-brand with his signature sound. Levi is said to draw inspiration from music from the ’70s and ’80s, that combined with the young artist currently being based in Tokyo perfectly fit the alt-rap lane he’s trying to carve out for himself.
