Atlanta rapper Young Nudy displayed versatile flows and personality on a string of mixtapes, each of them growing more musically rich as his chemistry with producer Pi'erre Bourne developed.

Mixtape Anyways finds the creative team at their most experimental, with unconventional instrumentals that serve as a perfect backdrop for Nudy's quickly mutating flows.

The nearly hour-long tape consists of 16 tracks, many of which find Young Nudy running through autobiographical narratives or surreal scenes from his early life.

First song "Understanding" reveals the experimental tendencies of Anyways at less than a minute in when the beat slows to a crawl and Nudy's vocals become demonically low for a stoned spoken interlude.

The beat bounces back into frantic trap rhythms moments later, and the tone is set for a weird ride.

The chirpy synthesizers of "Blue Cheese Salad" and the cloudy beat of "Cap Dem" are far from the interchangeable instrumentals that most commercial rap tracks are built on, and Nudy plays off of their unpredictability throughout Anyways, angling for new ways to deliver his bars and switching up his style within every song.

It's an excellent, engaging collection and one that pushes for new ground in the often bland and samey trap scene.
