In more recent times, he has focused on the speedy style of delivery more, and whilst impressive on a surface level, this does come at the expense of some of the raw emotion found on his earlier material. Utilising a consistently evolving rhyme patterns and an emphasis on dexterity within delivery rather than progressive rhymes, Logic found his style early, and has been working on perfecting it ever since. However, his talent is rooted in his flow rather than the material. For the uninitiated, Logic’s style and lyrical content might seem a tad simplistic- and truthfully, they are. A hip-hop typified version of Frank Sinatra’s ‘It Was A Very Good Year’ serves as the backing track, and a short introductory rap from Logic serves as a brief but skillful introduction to the rapper’s world of emotional honesty and buoyant optimism. Opening track ‘One’ serves as a mission statement of sorts.

Fuelled by the classic hip hop beats he is so eager to keep as standard in his material, yet peppered with the modernist school of rhyme he is clearly so comfortable spitting, Young Sinatra is an energetic, endearingly rough-around-the-edges experience with soulful heart at it's core and a witty, caustic lyricism worn loosely about its sleeve. With his third release, Young Sinatra, Logic hits his prime a peak he has still yet to surpass.

From the initial, tentative hopefulness presented on Psychological Logic all the way through to the unabashed pride of The Incredible True Story, there is a legitimate dream coursing through the material, and it is interesting to gauge the changing times for the rapper. This single-minded approach by the young rapper has undoubtedly produced a large number of tracks focusing on the achievement of his goal, but it has also created a metric by which his progress can be monitored. Logic’s first efforts- mainly the Young Sinatra mixtapes and the original Psychological Logic tape- showcase minimal development in terms of sound, but the utmost expansion in confidence and prowess. Raw ambition can serve as the most impressive of driving forces, and when it becomes an all-encompassing desire to achieve- the results can often be more impressive than the results yielded at the end of the road. Review Summary: 'It takes 3 million years for a diamond to shine- I did it in 21, see I'm ahead of my time.'
