J Nolan is doing hurdles on you turtles. This mixtape made me think of Lupe Fiasco’s early stuff–it sounds young and exciting, the lyrics are witty and fresh–he’s not stealing bars or rhymes from anyone who came before him, not even under the guise of “tribute.” So many new rappers borrow heavily from their predecessors, but J Nolan is 100% original.
Great stuff.
