On Set It Off, his second solo studio album and first since the messy-then-tragic breakup of his world-dominating trap trio Migos, Atlanta rapper Offset aims to establish his range by covering as much stylistic ground as possible. Theres larger than life melodic trap that sounds tailor-made for mass airplay and streaming on tracks like the magnanimous Travis Scott-assisted "Say My Grace" and the dramatic "Night Vision," but Offset is able to transition seamlessly into soul-searching pop on "Worth It" (featuring a smoothly sung chorus by Don Toliver) and the Auto-Tuned, sex-crazed R&B on "Princess Cut" (featuring Chloe). He even uses dance for an unstoppable flow around the soul-blues sample that anchors the beat of album-opener "On the River." A somewhat unexpected Memphis rap influence comes through on the albums better tracks. Both of Set It Offs songs featuring Cardi B: "Freaky" and "Jealousy" have a distinctly raw production reminiscent of the blunt power and sinister hooks of Three 6 Mafia. Offset seems equally at home in almost every style he tries, and though the heavily varied production and artistic approaches from track to track can give the album a less-than-consistent feel, the steady stream of guest appearances from stars like Future, Young Nudy, Latto, and others all help to emphasize how Set It Off is more exciting than it is uneven. ~ Fred Thomas
