Whysir – “The Multiversal Adventures of Whysir: Journey Through The Hallways of Always” (Album Review)

Diving into this 12-track album “The Multiversal Adventures of Whysir: Journey Through The Hallways of Always” by Portland’s Whysir, front to back it represents what true underground / alternative hip hop is all about.  Similar to likes like Anti-Con, with a new era type Sage Francis influence, Whysir expresses his views on life’s obstacles with his distinct lyrical style on top of the mixing and production of the album on point complimenting his cadence and delivery.

In today’s Hip Hop scene, it’s kinda hard to find a album that helps you get inside the consciousness of a person and their creativity.  It’s definitly not difficult to get inside his mind with songs like “Garbage Water”, “Coconut”, and “Waiting on Paradise”, songs combining spoken word with off the wall lyricism that make your head spin.

Throughout the project Whysir’s takes you on his adventure with simple yet consistent rhyme patterns.  Not the best rapper alive, but he does have his own persona and style that you can respect from a independent rapper.  Refreshing to hear something different.

I give “The Multiversal Adventures of Whysir: Journey Through The Hallways of Always” a deserving 7/10, with some gained anticipation of what’s nest to come out of Portland.
