He may hail from the cradle of grime but, on this breakthrough mixtape, East London MC Jay Prince leans into something looser, sunnier and more soulful. The result is a dense collection—a busy browser window of dextrously delivered hip hop styles—that’s dazzlingly accomplished. “Father, Father” welds modern paranoia to looped soul, “Episodes” emanates jazz-clouded Cali cool and “Squad”—featuring fellow Brit Danny Seth and off-kilter Bostonian Michael Christmas—is a swaggering statement of intent.
