After the breakup of the Clipse, his duo with his brother, Pusha-T spent this decade trying to find his footing as a solo rapper. He’s had plenty of highs—his verse on “Mercy,” all of “Numbers on the Board”—but he’s also had releases that didn’t live up to the high standard he once set. Daytona is the full realization of Pusha as a star. The drug dealing raps that fans first fell in love with on Clipse’s Hell Hath No Fury are just as rich here as he settles into a new corporate villain persona. Executive produced by Kanye West, Daytona closes with “Infrared,” an end-to-end thriller, famous for the petty shots at Drake that lit a new flame to one of this century’s defining rap beefs. And yet, for all the storylines and drama that surrounded Daytona, the music rises above. –Alphonse Pierre
自从Clipse解散后,Pusha-T 花了十年时间试图找到自己作为一个说唱歌手的立足点。他有过很多高光时刻,比如他在《Mercy》(《仁慈》)里创作的歌词,以及整张《Numbers on the Board》(《黑板上的数字》) ,但他也发行过一些达不到他曾经设定的高标准的作品。《代托纳》充分见证了Pusha成为了一个明星。粉丝们从一开始爱上Clipse专辑《Hell Hath No Fury》里那些有关毒品交易的歌,到他变成新合作中的反派角色,一直热情不减。坎耶·维斯特担任了该专辑的执行制作,《代托纳》以“Infrared”做尾曲,这是一首从头到尾弥漫着惊悚气氛的歌,德雷克则点燃了这一世纪最经典的说唱互怼之火,这一点最广为人知。然而,在说有关《代托纳》的所有故事情节和戏码之前,其音乐都处于蒸蒸日上之势。
