Virginia rapper Austin Fox 狐 drops fierce 15-track album, SCORIAN VALLEY, wrapped around a rugged yet funky soundscape led by Fox’s smooth rap delivery.
With a common theme of fire and betrayal stretching through the collection, the album moves across neo-jazz sensibilities and lo-fi beats, showcasing Fox’s versatility with shining moments where he allows vocals and harmonies to cut through his well-established rap skills, the collection brings out ideals of being content with yourself and letting go of envy.
The empowering message burning at the centre of the album is best encapsulated by focus track “Relatives,” featuring rising UK rapper/producer Tony Bontana, who also produced several other tracks on the production.
Speaking of harnessing the positivity and strength within yourself, the track is about dealing with the trauma of betrayal from those closest to you and about surrounding yourself with people who want the best for you, a vulnerable yet wise introspection that Fox pushes us to go move forward in life with self-confidence and self-satisfaction.
Following his Ranger396v album, this rising hip-hop act continues to build upon his momentum on this latest body of work, his infectious and deeply thoughtful numbers leaving us wanting more.
