Complex notes how the project puts “Skooly’s electric rap style and vibrant vocals on full display, showcasing his ability to do lyrical acrobatics . . . while simultaneously flexing his singing ability over smooth Tay Keith production. This project is also very reflective of Skooly’s Atlanta roots, and the internal battles he’s had to try to understand why some people don’t want to see him win.” Earlier this month, Skooly dropped the album’s debut single “Go.”

    Skooly marked the release of his album “Nobody Likes Me” with a fantastic listening party and documentary screening at Atlanta’s iconic Starlight Drive-In Theatre. Fans had the opportunity to enjoy his new music safely, right from the comfort of their cars.
