· 3 pulledEarl Sweatshirt transformed from Odd Future's mumbly alumnus into one of the most unique hip-hop artists of his generation.
The acerbic idiosyncrasies and deceptively lethargic flow that made the ruminative rapper so compelling early on in his run metamorphosed over time to place him in an even less categorizable stratum.
More recent work...found him seemingly examining and embracing the possibilities of brevity, doing more by saying less.
