Is Fireboy’s “LTG” A Classic Album Like “Superstar” Already?

 

Once you start to list iconic albums from this afro-pop era, you can always count on somebody mentioning one Fireboy album.

Some say “Apollo” is a classic that deserves to be ranked among the greats. But they’re mostly laughed off as unserious because Fireboy‘s sophomore just doesn’t have the significance to the culture that only a few number of albums have.

Then there are some people that say Fireboy’s debut “Laughter, Tears, and Goosebumps,” often stylized as LTG, is the real deal. These set of people are often always ready to die on that hill. Under close scrutiny, you’ll realize that the claim isn’t exactly unfounded.

But what are the facts? After almost two years of “LTG,” can we say the album that shot Fireboyto stardom is a classic already? And if yes, where does it rank in the list of modern classics. Well, let’s check out the facts.

You might say the album is too new to be a “classic,” but what you won’t be able to say is that “LTG” is not a good album. Because if that were true, there wouldn’t even be this discussion in the first place.

“LTG” is not just a good album, it’s actually one of the best to have hit the industry in a while. The album whose production was mostly handled by YBNL in-house producer, Pheelz is an eclectic body of work that cuts across genres, from afro-pop to R&B, alternative and more.
