Lucki's gone through some personal ups and downs since emerging as an artist but despite the setbacks, he's taken this pain and turned it into beautiful art. The Chicago rapper has been on an incredible run over the past two years with the release of several high-caliber projects. This week, he returned with his latest project, Almost There. Lucki continues to tread new sonic turf with this twelve-track project along with his frequent collaborators, Brent Rambo and Plu20Nash. Lucki breezes through drug-fueled trap production with a hazy flow with tales of heartbreak, substance abuse, and overall, life through his POV.
The release of Almost There follows the release of Days B4 II and Freewave 3, both of which dropped in 2019.
Check out Lucki's new project below.
