Only Way Is Up (Deluxe)

When you get called up to XXL’s Freshman Class, and snag verses from T.I., Snoop and Bun B for your debut LP, it’s probably hard not to feel a little cocky. So Atlanta rapper K Camp just runs with it, rolling out braggadocious rhymes over skittering hi-hats on “Own Boss,” bringing a laidback flow to the bumpin' “I’m Good” and trading lines with Yo Gotti on the self-identifying “Who Am I”. But it’s on the soulful stunner “Change” that his Only Way Is Up claim is most convincing.
