AUDIO: PLYTME – “Late Bloomer”

Hip hop artist PLYTME dropped a record a few months back. With clever wordplay and precise flow, PLYTME enters a deeply introspective zone over ten tracks. There’s no features; it’s just him and his wisdom here, processing topics such as laying low while staying relevant, the complexities of relationships, staying humble, facing fears and being in charge of your own destiny. There’s a profound level of clarity you reach when you take a step back and just observe the world around you rather than actively try to intervene in it, which is the place the rapper speaks from. We can tell that PLYTME’s healed and grown from a lot with this album, and while he may be late to the party, he doesn’t finish last.
