He prefaces his 2014 interview with Complex by asserting that he’ll be in the rap game for the next 10 years, and if Logic were writing this, there would be a pause, followed by a smile, followed by a gleaming, “At least.” In a lot of ways, “Forever” is Logic’s buzzword.

Five years in hip-hop is 50 years in almost any other profession, and when you glance at the tracklist and see names like Kid Ink and Trinidad Jame$, you’re reminded of simpler times, back when XXL cyphers didn’t spark conversations about domestic violence and the ethical consumption of music.
