Vancouver’s Daydreamer is an eclectic and lyrically-focused hip-hop project from the Russian-born artist whose mother calls him Boriz. His latest album, P3, is a six-song EP that’s as substantive as it is catchy. The album’s pretty heavy on the crossover (both electronic and rock) but hip-hop fans who aren’t scared by a little bit of musical exploration should have a fine time with it.
Daydreamer exercises a wide range of flow on the album, which can serve as more of an interruption than anything else on such a short collection of songs. That said, they all stand out on their own, making them perfect fodder for a mixtape – or, as the technologically savvy like to say, a playlist.
