  • On "Grass is Greener," Nathan Lawrence tactfully navigates a dark space. The percussion is skeletal, while the backing vocals are pitched to sound like distant wolf howls. He illuminates it with bars that contemplate divinity and existentialism. It's wordy, but it works, with sudden flow switch-ups and playful vocal inflections keeping it more cheeky than preachy. The raspy tones of his Wolverhampton accent are a key tool in his arsenal that'll keep him turning heads in the scene—these are infectious, cerebral raps that give strong credence to the "Wonderer" part of his name.
