Retropolitan is a collaborative studio album by rapper Skyzoo and producer Pete Rock. The album was released on September 20, 2019 on Mello Music Group.
Critical reception
The album has received positive attention from music critics. One publisher from
Exclaim! gave this album 8 out of 10, saying "Together, these elements elevate Retropolitan past what could've been a nostalgia trip in lesser hands. That shouldn't come as a surprise, however, when the beats come from a studio legend that has remained at the top of his game, and the lyrics come from an aficionado of the old school with one of the moment's freshest flows."
Riley Wallace of
HipHopDX gave this album 4.4 out of 5, calling it "a sunny walk down memory lane."
It also adds "it feels like a modern take. It gives a retrospective context (and sonic second life) to the culture of old New York in an accessible way that doesn’t make anyone feel left out."
