    I came across Mavi's music by happenstance. Needed more Earl Sweatshirt lofi jazz rap sounds, and there it was. The interview has given me a different outlook than what the music has, which I found to be misanthropic, sorta dejected from the world. Interestingly, the personality on display here is more jovial; more open. I wonder if that would reflect more in his next record. What a really promising act, from those early SoundCloud mixtapes to his studio releases. Really excited to see how he evolves with time.
