Album Notes & Community Reviews
Vince Staples' debut double album 'Summertime '06' presents a bleak, autobiographical narrative of his adolescence in North Long Beach, California. The production, primarily handled by No I.D., is characterized by a stark, menacing, and industrial sound that provides a cohesive backdrop for Staples' unflinching lyrical vignettes about street life and survival. With a precise and often deadpan delivery, Staples offers a critically acclaimed, unsentimental perspective that solidified his idiosyncratic voice in hip-hop.
