Big Flock Rises From The Trenches On The Great Depression

Big Flock rises from the trenches on The Great Depression. In what could arguably be described as on of this countries most tumultuous times, Flock’s presciently titled “The Great Depression” encapsulates both Flock’s journey and a personal, collective feeling altogether. What this project does is simple; TGD graduated Flock from a promising mixtape artist to a rising force whose wrenching street tales and trap documentary allow a vision to form and most importantly, a signature sound and mark to come to life. The Great Depression’s intro, “Lucifer,” sets an authentically gritty tone to the project blending the trap with the macabre. Cuts like “She Like,” (Feat. Visto) “Life Is A Movie,” and “Come Over” (Feat. Vanessa) give us a more light-hearted Flock, where “Testimony,” “Bruvas,” and the smash-single “Black KKK” with 21 Savage remind us that his rough-exterior and street dialogue is indeed as real as it gets. The Great Depression is the first bona-fide chapter in Flock’s story. This project not only picks up where Glockism and others left off, it shows his depth as a trap artist and even more importantly, his knack for song writing. The digital age gives us vast options when consuming Trap music, but Flock’s staple drawl and regular sonic aggression makes you feel a tangible part of his coming of age and above all else, wildly alive. The Great Depression feels special. Big Flock feels special. While minor setbacks for Flock are of course unfortunate, it shows no signs of slowing anything down and like our countries harder times, Flock “The Great Depression” will come out on the other end more promising than ever.
