Big Fish Theory, the sophomore album of North Long Beach MC Vince Staples is one of the better projects to come out of the hip-hop genre in the first half of 2017. The album takes great risks in terms of the production that Staples decided to utilize for this album. Featuring production from artists such as GTA, SOPHIE, and Flume, elements of house, trap, and Detroit techno are peppered throughout the project. Although the risks do net heaps of rewards, there are times that it seems as though Staples is purposefully trying to have the production take the spotlight.
