BabyTron surprise releases new album 6
The Detroit scam-rapper celebrates his birthday with 15 new tracks—no features, just Tron.
BabyTron's new surprise album is supposed to feel personal. The Detroit rapper rose to prominence giving detailed instructions for various internet scams from behind a cartoon illustration of himself. 6, by contrast, features a very real photo of a very young Tron on the cover, which makes sense since the release coincides with his birthday.
6 is BabyTron's 6th project, but his first without any features. In a funny coincidence, it's actually one of two projects with that name and greyscale cover art that were released today (the other one is by Kenny Mason). The record is chock-full of the off-kilter beat choices and bananas rhymes ("Spidey-Senses" rhymes "Delorian" with "Dr. Kevorkian") that put Tron on the map, but whether this project gives fans a closer look at who he is is remains to be seen.
