Обложка альбома «Criminally Attached» — Boldy James & Nicholas Craven

It seems every time Boldy James and Nicholas Craven get together, something magical occurs. You can hear it happening on the rapper-producer duo’s first project, 2022’s <i>Fair Exchange No Robbery</i>, where knowledgeably narco bars met sumptuous street soul for a downright beauteous union. Coming after a noticeably prolific release run for the Detroit MC, one that included <i>Late to My Own Funeral</i> with the Quebecois beatmaker, their second 2025 outing <i>Criminally Attached</i> shows once again why their partnership elevates both artists and their respective crafts. James conjures vivid, violent imagery on “No Blemishes” and the inventively reference-laden “Thread the Needle”, with Craven’s resourceful sample-flipping instrumentals providing lush backdrops for these narratives. The lyrics on “2 Left Feet” take on a retrospective quality, fusing past and present hustles to emphasise how far he’s come. Perennially putting on for Michigan hip-hop, he admirably limits the features to loyal locals like 50 Gwuap Taj and Poppy Bricks.
