Boo Boo is the fifth studio album by Toro y Moi, released on July 7, 2017 via Carpark.[1] "Girl Like You" was the first single from the album and was released on June 9, 2017.[2] Toro y Moi cites Travis Scott, Daft Punk, Kashif, Gigi Masin, Frank Ocean, and Oneohtrix Point Never as inspiration for the album.[1][3] Toro y Moi said the album was written to help "cope with an identity crisis caused by his growing popularity".[1][4]
Release
Toro y Moi released the album on July 7, 2017. One day before the release, Toro y Moi uploaded an album stream and short film to YouTube, which was directed and produced by Company Studio.[4] The short film is a predominantly single-take, rotating evening shot from within the camper shell of a truck, featuring Chaz Bear sightseeing at Treasure Island, San Francisco before driving the truck to Grizzly Peak, Berkeley Hills to view the evening twilight over the Bay Area.[4] The short is periodically overlaid with random scenes featuring Bear at a studio,[4] which location has been featured in prior music videos for "Girl Like You" and "You and I".
Critical reception
At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 73, based on 14 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[5] Stereogum writer Tom Breihan named it "Album of the Week" and states Boo Boo "might just be the best Toro Y Moi album yet, partly because it sounds like all these past strains of his music whirled together and partly because it’s just a great album."[6] Ian Cohen of Pitchfork writes, "Toro Y Moi's Chaz Bear sounds increasingly comfortable as a lead vocalist and personality on his most personal album to date, as a still-funky but more ambient side of his writing emerges."[7]
