Tino SZN, at just 16 years old, is the underground’s newest popstar. With an upbeat and melodic style of music combined with his charismatic raps he might have a formula for mainstream success. His new album “Take Flight” is a testament to how he’s on the same level as the best upcoming rappers. What’s most impressive from Tino SZN is his ability to rap in a way that compliments his beats with so much energy and vocal dynamics. It takes some artists years to reach a mastery of melody and be able to freely tweak and tune their voice to give songs that personality and spice. With the work ethic and determination he has, each release will only get him closer to his goals.
“Take Flight” consists of hype, hard hitting production from producers such as Lucca, Ooooze, Lukrative, Ransom, and more who were all involved together to collab on a cohesive sound for the album. “MTV” is one of the harder songs on the album with enough of everything that Tino SZN offers artistically to be able to take off for him. The 6-song album is a great listen and addition to new age rap listener’s rotation.
