Critic Reviews
Show All-
NME
Russ's 14th release is his most consistent album to date, prioritising features from up-and-coming talent over established marquee names.
-
Ratings Game Music
Shake The Snow Globe is a body-of-work that is trill, smooth, inspirational, motivational, infectious, and melodious.
-
Legends Will Never Die
While it is titled Shake the Snow Globe, it’s not really rocking my world at all.
-
The Daily Nebraskan
The songs are well-produced and catchy; they just aren’t very meaningful.
-
All Music
Another set of packed bars, languid production, and emotionally fraught lyrics.
-
Earmilk
This versatile rapper's latest album SHAKE THE SNOW GLOBE flawlessly mixes pleasing sounds and lyrical skills that leaves us captivated. With his undeniable talent and hard work, it is no surprise that his album has reached number 1 for the most albums sold on the Billboard Top Album Sales.

Sloppy Vinyl
For years people have been telling me to listen to Russ and I can see why. If the rest of his work sounds like this I completely understand how he is able to continuously sell out shows and festivals.

Hit Up Ange
In Shake The Snow Globe, Russ doesn’t put up a good rap performance, he puts up a fantastic rap performance! Not only does he make sure to piece together his thoughts rawly/intricately but skills-wise, he gifts us with great flows, confident deliveries, and clever bars, too.

RMR
Russ continues to prove his power with the release of fourth LP, SHAKE THE SNOW GLOBE.
-
Collegian
Overall, this album sounded like a lot of his old music, continuing to brag about his accomplishments like in his 2017 album “There’s Really a Wolf.” The love songs gave it a unique touch, providing different scenarios from his past albums that appeal to more people.

I Standard Producers
This being my first exposure to Russ, this album sets a strong impression as an Artist with a clear vision and drive.
-
Grunge Cake
Laced with personal experiences, whether hurt, pain, strength or victories, Russ’s ‘SHAKE THE SNOW GLOBE’ is a great listen and a deeper insight into one of Hip-Hop’s greatest success stories.
-
The Sentry
Shake The Snow Globe shows Russ taking a new direction in his work, which is a good thing. However, it was poorly executed and didn’t meet expectations.
-
The Spectrum
As Russ aims for a direct audience, this project is sure to please his core fanbase. The project aims to be inspirational with smooth and crooning melodies.
-
The Lancer Feed
while Russ’ “Shake the Snow Globe” is a largely upbeat album with a couple of motivational songs, a large portion of the lyrics lack substantial meaning and maturity. While I feel as though this album fully expresses Russ’ journey in becoming a modern musician, some of the tracks reflect braggadocious sentiments.

News Break
Russ’ ‘Shake the Snow Globe’ doesn’t shake up much.
-
LIVEWITHACE
Atlanta’s very own Russ has soulfully curated one of the best albums for 2020 so far. Shake The Snow Globe is the ultimate flex album for the creative genius.
-
Music & Life
I really enjoy every project he puts out and this album is no other.
-
Typica
Russ has not only shaken the snow globe, but he has literally shaken the globe in 2020.

E-News
With Russ finding success on his own terms, ‘Shake The Snow Globe’ is unique. Consistent from start to finish, it’s a more complete body of work than 2018’s ‘Zoo’.
