Iconoclastic rapper Lil Yachty and electronic producer/songwriter James Blake play off of each other with both gentle curiosity and soft excitement on their joint effort Bad Cameo. While both artists have their own particularities when it comes to scoffing at genre, they take a less aggressive tack throughout Bad Cameo, delivering textural ambient pop that brings each player's deepest tendernesses to the surface.
It's sweet to witness two artists carefully adapting to each other. In its best moments, the cloudy lament that builds into cinematic grandeur on opening track "Save the Savior," the weary, rhythmless groove of "Missing Man," the spacious plastic balladry of "Run Away from the Rabbit" -- Bad Cameo is a compelling picture of two collaborators inspiring each other to try things they might not have on their own.
