Anyways…

Released in early 2020, Anyways... serves as a definitive statement of Young Nudy's solo capabilities, notably featuring no guest appearances across its 16 tracks. This lack of features allows Nudy's idiosyncratic, nasal delivery to take center stage, reinforcing his status as one of trap's most distinct stylists. Sonically, the album continues his fruitful exploration of 'horror-trap' - a style characterized by eerie, minor-key synthesizer melodies and sparse, heavy-hitting 808s. While Nudy is often associated with high-profile collaborators like Pi'erre Bourne and 21 Savage, this project highlights his ability to carry a full-length narrative on his own. Critical reception praised the album's cohesive atmosphere and Nudy's effortless charisma. It stands as a bridge between the raw energy of his Slimeball mixtapes and the more refined, psychedelic textures of his later work, solidifying his niche as the purveyor of Atlanta's most atmospheric and 'cartoonish' street music.
