It matters little what he’s saying - just notice the contradictory “I got a hell of a kidney!” on I’m Up’s “For My People” when compared to Slime Season 3’s “I think I need help with my kidney” - how he says these things is what presents such a challenging listen. Yet, less than a minute after some of the most coherent rapping of his career, he veers into a slurred scream - “Didn’t I tell you about playing with Lil Jeff?!” There’s nothing passive about any moment on Slime Season 3, and this intensity recalls the razor-sharp mastery of Lil Wayne’s mid-to-late-2000s peak. Over funky steel drums, Thug unleashes a dazzling array of internal rhymes on “Drippin’”, punctuating each rhyming syllable with force yet allowing them to hang in the air to fully register.

While the beats are excellent throughout, with some of his most frequent collaborators turning in some of their weirdest and engaging productions yet, nothing compares to the sheer thrill of listening to Young Thug speak, yell, double-and-triple-time, murmur, participate in a one-man call-and-response, and croon his way through the verbal absurdities that are expected and enthralling all at once. The bass is distant a la Barter 6 opener “Constantly Hating”, but on “With Them”, there’s shiny synths that don’t detract from the beat’s minimalism instead, they constantly seem to be working double-time just to keep up with his frantic rapping. The bouncy post-“I Know There’s Gonna Be (Good Times)” journey was revealed at Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo release event, when Young Thug was handed the aux cord (the 2016 version of passing the torch?) to play some of his unreleased music, opting for Slime Season 3 starter “With Them”.

Though less than half the length of the first two Slime Season installments, Slime Season 3 is the most realized aesthetically and suggests exciting things for the forthcoming Hy!£UN35. Young Thug has released a trilogy of trilogies in his short but prolific career ( I Came From Nothing, 1017 Thug, and Slime Season) and each has taken a similar arc: start off by masterfully paying homage to a vogue style, release an uneven sequel that betrays novel experimentation, and finalize the trilogy by emerging with a new sound all his own.
