{"product_id":"lucki-almost-there","title":"Lucki - Almost There","description":"Chicago rap pioneer, LUCKI’s, \u003ci\u003eAlmost There\u003c\/i\u003e plays like a midnight drive through the inner workings of an artist caught between the highs of underground superstardom and the quiet weight of his own vices. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nReleased in May 2020 as a surprise 12-track mixtape, the project stands as a pivotal checkpoint in LUCKI’s discography, serving as the bridge connecting his classic SoundCloud era to the blown-out, ambient pluggnb soundscapes that would come to define his commercial explosion. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThroughout the mixtape, LUCKI captures a distinct sense of bone-deep exhaustion and detached romance, wrapping raw lifestyle admissions in his signature hypnotic, half-slurred flow. Float-along production from trusted collaborators like Brent Rambo, Callari \u0026amp; Plu2o Nash lays down a backdrop of lush, spacey synth loops and wall-shaking 808s. Track highlights like \"Pure Love - Hate,\" \"At Least I Think It's Real,\" \"Pick A Flaw,\" and \"Ouch Omen\" showcase his unique ability to trade grand hip-hop boasts for weary introspection about rapid fame, troubled relationships, and self-medication, while fan favorites like \"Prada Tune,\" \"Nigo,\" and \"Faith\" deliver addictive, effortlessly melodic hooks. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTense yet calm, vulnerable yet unbothered, \u003ci\u003eAlmost There\u003c\/i\u003e excels above all as a masterclass in mood-setting. Rather than just a standard collection of rap songs, it offers an intimate, highly atmospheric snapshot of a cult icon standing right on the precipice of mainstream stardom, fully aware of the personal cost it took to reach that threshold.","brand":"Lucki\/ Empire","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":67764203684118,"sku":"RMX-77104","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":67764204437782,"sku":"RMX-77105","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7750\/2998\/files\/6ad5e7947041a5152f5678dd_353c61ff-4c47-403a-8dc2-c2c55a5eacd6.jpg?v=1792417258","url":"https:\/\/resident-music-uk.myshopify.com\/products\/lucki-almost-there","provider":"Resident Music UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
