Dave - The Boy Who Played The Harp (Album)

Our creative director, Carter, swore up and down that Dave’s latest album “The Boy Who Played the Harp” was already locked in as album of the year honestly, he might be right. Even with monumental projects dropping from Clipse and the dynamic duo of Gibbs & Alchemist, Carter stood firm on his claim. After diving into this project, I see exactly why.

I’ve been a fan of Dave for a while now, and while he’s always been capable of blending poetic lyricism with vibrant production, this album hits on a completely different level. The project feels like a reflection of soul, emotion, and raw vulnerability. Dave lets his heart bleed across every track, turning pain, pride, and passion into sound.

It’s hard to single out one standout record because, truthfully, every song feels essential to the experience. The titled outro track, though, deserves a special mention. It’s heartfelt, moving, and the way Dave pours everything into it feels like a final exhale; a moment of truth where he’s no longer performing, just speaking from the depths of his being.

“The Boy Who Played the Harp” isn’t just a contender for album of the year; it’s a timeless body of work that captures what it means to feel, to reflect, and to evolve. The project carries a prestigious feelingthroughout, the kind that sticks with you long after the music fades.
