After four years of radio silence when it comes to full-length project, his last being 2019's MISUNDERSTOOD, Yung Bans is finally back with a new mixtape. Vol. 6 is a 15-track offering of what he does best: woozy beats, drowsy delivery, and a whole lot of vibes. Moreover, the St. Louis native focuses on hypnotizing soundscapes with his trap production, with songs like "I Juss" and "No Belt" with YNW Melly packing a heavier punch with their bass treatments. If you need a refresher, the last track we covered from his was 2021's "Won't Think Twice," and not much has shifted since then when it comes to his artistry.
Furthermore, that would be a tad disappointing for Yung Bans, if not for the fact that he encapsulates this style so well. His patient flows and easily adaptable rhyme schemes on songs like "The Streets" remind us of why he captured the ears of so many listeners during the SoundCloud rap golden age. What's more is that the "Blow Her Back Out" MC also chose a pretty solid list of features on Vol. 6 to show off his chemistry with other artists and switch up the tracklist's flow. For example, there's the aforementioned Melly, plus Highway, R5 Homixide, Doe Boy, and Ralo.

However, these features don't take away from the record's overall experience, as the 24-year-old is still at the center of everything here. There are also plenty of moments here that turn more explosive, reminiscent of earlier singles like "Freak Show" with Latto.
