Much like the late-teen Nas on Illmatic, Dave's pen works beyond his years. The result is a thoroughly compelling self-examination taking us track by track through attitudes, occurrences, and locations, Dave paints a detailed self-portrait, wrapped in strands of both past and present. With snippets from his therapist dividing the album into three self-described "acts" - Environment, Relationships, and Social Compass - the project sees Dave re-enacting lived experiences and mind states in self-reflection. Distilling his life experiences into a concept, his debut album PSYCHODRAMA comes fully formed, a nuanced project imitating the form of therapy his brother experienced in prison. ![]() ![]() Yet Dave wanted it to get it right the first time. ![]() With a Drake co-sign, a number one-charting hit, and a string of viral singles dating back to 2016, the London-born rapper had every opportunity to secure the bag, whip up a half-baked debut and guarantee himself the big-label sophomore. That we're only getting Dave's debut album in 2019 tells us a lot about the artist himself. Purchase and download this album in a wide variety of formats depending on your needs.
