Review: Goyard Ibn Said marks Ghais' debut album arrived following two self-released mixtapes. Released under Fat Possum, this concept album introduces Goyard as a fictional anti-hero, guiding listeners through a narrative split into two acts. Act 1 celebrates the glamour and wealth of mainstream hip-hop stardom so is filled with ambition and triumph. However, Act 2 takes a somber turn as it delves into the personal struggles and tragedies faced in the pursuit of success. The album's compelling storytelling is heightened by Ghais' intricate production so offers a rich and evocative exploration of fame's darker side and marks a strong debut in the hip-hop scene.
