TOP 5
Honorable Mention. 7 Mile Bike Ride pt. 2
“7 Mile Bike Ride Pt. 2” is a masterclass in effortless flexing. The song’s beat thumps with just enough knock to make your house walls shake if someone’s cruising by playing it loud — and you won’t even be mad about it. Larry steps up his s**t-talking game here, proudly rapping about summer drop tops, cutting off romantic distractions to focus on himself, and his addiction to buying fresh new things. He even finds a way to brag about biking seven miles — and honestly, that’s the kind of gloating I f**k with.
What really stands out is how he floats on the beat with casual confidence, like he’s listing off achievements to someone who dared to question his grind. F**k the doubters!
Did this negro just ask me what my ROI was?
5. Organic Range Chicken
The first time I listened to “Organic Range Chicken,” I honestly thought it was ridiculous—but somehow, every listen afterward had me more hooked. This isn’t your typical Larry June cut. Instead, it plays like a wild, off-kilter experiment where he completely lets loose. From the oddball ad-libs to the way he raps about chickens like he’s either running Tyson Foods or the streets, s**t is hilarious.
Another aspect that makes the song work is Larry’s unpredictable approach—he switches flows without warning, throws in suave accents like he’s auditioning for a Bond villain, and delivers a chorus that feels like a mashup of vintage Gucci Mane and peak A$AP Ferg. It’s strange, it’s scattered, but it’s also kind of genius.
4. 50’s in the City
90% of the reason I added this track to the top 5 is because Larry June delivers an unbelievable vocal performance—he literally sounds like Jesus on this joint. After a smooth little intro, the song perfectly captures the essence of both artists: Cardo’s production is extra potent this time around, full of silky textures and laid-back swagger, while Larry sounds completely unbothered as he breaks down his day-to-day routine and mindset on women and haters. It feels like a reintroduction to these two, and they sound sharper and more in-sync than ever.
3. Ya Feel Me (Ft. E-40)
I love that “Ya Feel Me” rides on a buttery Cardo beat that echoes the golden haze of Kush & Orange Juice-era Wiz Khalifa. As for Larry June, he sounds slightly more energized than usual but still smoother than Klay Thompson’s shooting form, delivering a charismatic verse full of seasonal flexes: making plays, stacking his paper, biking through the city, and burning one while soaking in the good life. I will say this, though: The hook he lays down is awful.
Then comes Bay legend E-40, who brings a dose of animated swagger and seasoned game. His verse is full of witty wordplay and unshakable confidence, reminding listeners that he’s cut from a different cloth—one that’s been in the game, made his money, and knows how to command respect. Though I’m not a fan of his rapping style at all, he does add a dynamic shift to the track, injecting even more character into the already flavorful mix.
2. Canadian Snow
“Canadian Snow” might just have the hardest beat on this project. Cardo Got Wings, known for his laid-back, smooth production, switches things up here with something that hits harder, feels more soulful, and lowkey sounds like a beat any top-tier rapper would kill for. Lucky for us, Larry does his thing: dropping slick bars about avoiding the wrong crowd and staying low while making money moves — all while throwing in strange food references, such as preferring moist taco shells (Who the f**k likes their taco shells moist?).
There’s no chorus, but honestly, there doesn’t need to be. Larry’s calm, calculated delivery and casually wise one-liners are enough to hold your attention. Sure, his tone still feels a little laid-back to the point of sleepy, but there’s a quiet urgency in the way he attacks the beat that makes everything stick. Still, let’s be real — the MVP of this one is Cardo. This beat is tougher than trying to score on Chet Holmgren.
1. Gotta Be Love
Some of Larry June’s best moments come when he taps into his softer side, and “Gotta Be Love” is another gem in that category. Driven by an extra smooth, borderline seductive instrumental, the track finds Larry shedding some of his usual game-spitting for heartfelt honesty. He raps about finally finding someone he can fully trust — someone who brings out his romantic side and gives him peace of mind in a chaotic world. The vibe is laid-back, warm, and surprisingly vulnerable.
What really elevates “Gotta Be Love” is Larry’s delivery. While his signature playa talk is still present on the verses, he leans into melody on the hook, giving us a Nate Dogg-esque performance that’s smooth and intoxicating. This one feels made for late-night drives, post-date unwinds, or anytime you’re caught up in your feelings.

OVERALL RATING
(80%)
Larry June’s music thrives on consistency, and Until Night Comes is another shining example of how he’s mastered his lane without sounding stale. While the formula—smooth beats, motivational bars, and a healthy dose of self-care—remains intact, it’s the subtle growth in subject matter and production that keeps things refreshing. Larry doesn’t reinvent the wheel here, but he reinforces why his wheel rolls smoother than most: his attention to detail, his effortless cool, and the way he raps like he’s in no rush because he’s already won.
The partnership with Cardo once again proves to be gold. The beats are atmospheric but full of low-end punch, making it perfect for both late-night drives and early morning focus sessions. Whether it’s him singing like a stoned Nate Dogg or dropping wisdom about cutting off distractions, Larry knows exactly how to speak to the listener’s soul. Even when the BPM barely rises, there’s a quiet intensity to how he raps—a calm swagger that makes his lifestyle seem attainable, even if it isn’t.
At this point, it’s not just about whether Larry June can keep this momentum—it’s about how long the game will take to catch up to his vision. His music doesn’t chase trends; it creates a space where mental peace, financial literacy, and organic living all coexist. And while his delivery may seem nonchalant to the untrained ear, real ones know there’s intention in every bar. Until Night Comes is proof that being chill doesn’t mean you’re not serious. Larry is as dialed in as ever—and he’s still teaching game for those willing to listen.
