Shadowbox [Vinyl]

Since his 2019 debut album Let The Sun Talk caught the attention of listeners around the globe, Mavi has become one of the leading lights of hip-hop’s next generation. Subtly molding his stream of consciousness into a fluid mosaic of elaborately interlocking rhymes, the Charlotte, North Carolina emcee has amassed millions of streams, toured nationally and internationally, worked with artists like Earl Sweatshirt and Alchemist, and seen his music championed by Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, NPR, and more.

Mavi’s latest album Shadowbox is his most fully realized work to date, exploring new experiences and perspectives within substantive layers of abstraction and metaphor. With atmospheric soundscapes illuminating the depth of Mavi’s intricate lyrics, the acclaimed collection is a compelling step forward from a visionary young artist. After much anticipation, Shadowbox is now available on vinyl for the first time ever.
