Apollo’s skilled successes, from his early singles to “Evergreen” going viral on TikTok to his finest original artist Grammy nom, absorb largely hinged on his hiss and how he deploys its impressive strength. “Spite,” which precedes an upcoming sophomore album, positions his gentle singing front and heart nonetheless offers original depth, oscillating between passion and helplessness with equal substances energy and restraint. The efficiency requires nuance — moderately tons of that wounded chorus is yelped out in preference to crooned — and Apollo meets the 2nd.
